per pound, sugar at 56 cents pei
pound, ham and bacon at $2.11 pei

times as high as those now obtaining

BOUND AND ROBBED.
Cotter, Jan. 19.—Mrs. J. E. Royes,
wife of Yardmaster Royes, employed

was robbed in her room Thursday
morning at Iq o’clock by a masked
man. She had just returned from an
excursion and was taking off her
wraps when the man entered the
room. He wore a black mask over
his face. He caught her, choked and
gagged her and tied her to a chair,
then proceeded to loot the room of its
valuables. She had just cashed her
husband’s check for $55. He also got
this. No clue has been found as to
the identity of the thief.
NEW COUNTY TO BE FORMED.
Searcy, Jan. 19.—Steps will soon be

be about 30 miles long and 18 miles

COAL BOATS FROZEN IN
MISSISSIPPI AT MEMPHIS.
Memphis, Tenn., Jan. 21.—With this
city virtually without fuel, city, riv
er and railroad officials conferred
yesterday on measures to relieve the
situation created by ice jams in the
Mississippi river. At 8 o’clock last
night, after an all-day struggle, tugs
of the Western Kentucky Coal Com
pany brought to its dock a coal laden
barge which had been fast in the ice
in the middle of the river for 48 hours.
There are five other barges, loaded
with coal, caught in the ice near
Memphis. The Lee line has been try
ing to reach them, but al lefforts
have failed.
Extraordinary efforts are being
made today to get to the ice-marooned
barges.

j piano was given. The little girl is

MOTOR CAR USED TO
SWITCH FREIGHT CARS
Providence Man Adopts Practical
Means of Solving Yard Con
gestion Problem.
The field of activity in which the
motor car operates to the advantage
of modern man is almost with out
limit. Witness the application of
this truth by a resourceful Providence,
R. I., man.
When the freight car shortage be
came serious several months ago, the
Broadway Sales Company not only
found it difficult to obtain shipments
from the factory, but had an endless
amount of trouble in getting the cars
unloaded when they finally arrived in
Providence. This was due to insuffi
cient switching facilities, and a bad
congestion of the railroad yards.
Sales were too heavy to tolerate
delays, so the manager of the compa
ny decided there had to be a remedy.
He brought out one of the oldest
Dodge Brothers motor cars he had
and went down to the yards to do a
little switching of his own. The ex
periment worked. Although the car
tiad seen more than 20,000 miles of
service, it applied itself energetically
‘o the task of moving freight cars
weighing about 50,000 pounds each,
‘kicking” them up to the platform
where they could be unloaded. There-1
rfter the same plan was tried several '■
IIJI.X-UI- I .J
times, each time with success.
There are more ways than M» Jn fi
which the motor car can prose (MB
indispengible.

R. J. Wise Grocer Co.
I lie BugWsxl for a Good Drink
THE Ancient Egyptians, according to his
tory, were the first to brew a cereal
beverage. The rich grain fields of the
lower Nile furnished vast products for experi- ff m
ment, so it is not strange that these wise people f
should have discovered that cereals were the I >
basis of nutritious beverages. 2
r
Their first brew was called “ HEK ”. We have revived ^
the name for our beverage, because like the Egyptian ^
monuments of old, it is the symbol of everlasting vitality.
Just as the Sphinx and the Pyramids represent the
utmost skill in construction, so does HEK signify perfec
tion :n the art of beverage production.
HEK is refreshment in its most palatable form—a foamy,
cooling, wholesome drink, rich in the carbohydrates and
protein of Nature’s strength building cereals.
HEK is a sparkling, invigorating, non-intoxicating drink, good for
every member of t’.iv family, young and old. It will add zest to a
luncheon, a dinner or an after theatre supper.
HEK should be served cold,
* _ -..1 MtftkAMMrtHrf wIiaImamwi HrinWft are served.
