To Arrest Unlicensed Chauf
feurs,
Special to Independent.
Little Rock, May 13.—Life
will soon be a burden to the poor
automobile owner who has fail
ed to provide himself with a li
cense for this year, or who em
ploys an unlicensed chauffeur.
Rueben G. Dye, head of the
State Highway Commission,
j which now has the issuing of
the state licenses, has received
, a letter from a constable at Hot
| Springs who asks if he cannot
l arrest the owners of machines
i
j who run them without a display
of the state tags,
j Commissioner Dye has in
formed the constable to go as
far as he can get away with,
j and if "he can have owners of un- j
licensed cars fined, it will be j
just that much in assisting the |
department to enforce the law. j
The automobile act provides for j
the seizure of unlicensed cars by
sheriffs, and their sale if the
owner fails to comply with the
law, but Commissioner Dye
could find nothing about arrests.
He is certain the fines, if im
posed, will oe upneia Dy tne
higher courts and for that rea
son told the constable to pro
ceed with his warfare.

HOW ONE !
WOMAN WON
fltr fleaith and Strength lack
Again by Hie Use of Cardol
T*mpa, Fla.—In a letter fram this
elti Mrs. E. 0. Comm writes: "I was
all weakened and worn out with wo
manly troubles. My husband brought
me some Cardul as a tonic, and, from
the first day. It seemed to help.
I had almost lost my reason, but,
thanks to Cardul, I did not. Soon, I
felt and looked like a new woman. I
think the remedy Is wonderful. I
recommend It to my friends, for I have
received great benefit from It.”
Cardul acts specifically on the weak
ened womanly organs, strengthening
the muscles and nerves, and building
them up to health.
It helps to refresh the worn-out ner
vous system and relieves the effects of
overwork, both mental and physical.
Fifty years’ successful use fully
prove the merit of this purely vege
table, tonic remedy for women.
In every community, there live some
who have been benefited by Cardul.
The beneficial effects of this time
tested woman's remedy, soon show
themselves In many different ways.

NURSES OF 150 YEARS AGO
Old Time Article Tell* the Difficult
Duties and Requirements of Their
Profession.
In their "History of Nursing.” the
authors. Miss Nuttiug anil Mus Dock,
quote from an article written iu 1764.
which gives an insight into what, was
required of the trained nurse in the
eighteenth century The article says:
This occupation is as Important for
humanity as its 'unctions are low and
repugnant. All persons are not
auapted to it. and the heads of hospi
ralK ought to be difficult to please, for
the lives of patients may depend upon
their choice of applicants The nurse
should be patient, mild, compassion
ate She should console the sick,
foresee their needs, and relieve their
tedium. The domestic duties of the
nurse are: To light the tires in the
wards and keep them going, to carry
and distribute nourishment. to accom
pany the surgeons and doctors on
their rounds, and afterwards to re
move all dressings, etc... to sweep the
halls and wards, and keep the persons
of the patients and their surroundings
clean;' to empty all vessels, and
change 'he patients’ linen; to prevent
noise and quarreling and dtstur
bailees, to notify the steward of
everything hey see which is wrong;
to carry out the dead and bury them;
to light the lamps in the evening, and
visit the sick during the night, and
to watch them continually, giving them
every aid which their state requires,
and treating them with kindness aud
consideration ’
BEAT ALL RECORDS BADLY
Irish Athlete Ran in No Time, for the
Stop Watch Had Actually
StopDed
An Irish athlete, who was training
for a mile race, which he had very
high hopes of winning, went one day,
accompanied by his man. Pat. to have
a trial In a held convenient to his
own house.
"Now, Pat." said his master, as he
handed him hla watch, "mind that you
nete the correct time in which I start
and finish."
Pat, who, by the way, was very
proud of his young master's prowess
In the athletic arena, assured him that
he would make no mistake.
Now, it happened that by some un
lucky chance the watched stopped at
the precise moment in which he
started to run.
Having put his best effort, into the
race, the athlete finished almost ex
hausted.
"The time, Pat?” 1® shouted, breath
lessly.
Par. immediately pulled out the
watch, and. on looking at it for the
first, time since the start, an expres
sion of surprise, mingled with pride,
overspread his features.
“Begob, sir," he answered, "you
have beaten ail records, for you have
dona it in no time.”
Microscope in the Kitchen.
The use of the microscope is recom
mended in the kitchen, if not of the
ordinary house, at least of those hav
ing an army of servants and purchas
ing by wholesale. In hotels, boarding
houses, hospitals. Jails, ltB use In our
complicated modern life Is becoming
essential, and the need 1s based upon
the necessity of determining the de
gree of adulteration of food. The chef
has no excuse for not knowing what
he buys if he Is provided with a
microscope.
In starchy substances the adultera
tions will soon be revealed by the
microscope If the grains of starch
do not have the selfsame form In the
potato and In rice. The sajne thing
may be said of the spices. Pepper
can be adulterated only with peas or
ground beans, and this fraud also
may be readily detected. The rule
may be almost universally applied to
all foods that pass through the kitcn
«n, and especially the kitchens of the
wealthy. Coffee under the microscope
does not look like chicory in structure
and chocolate made with peanuts does
not look like pure chocolate.—Har
pel's Weekly.
Bowl of Mush.
A famous doctor says: “Bat a good
bowl of mush and milk for your break
fast, and you will not need any medi
cine." Indian corn contains a large
amount of nitrogen, has qualities eas
ily assimilated, and Is fattening. It
Is cheap, and has great nutritive prop
erties as well. A course of Indian
meal In the shape of mush, Johnny
cake, hoe cake, corn bread, etc., fol
lowed by copious draughts of water,
or, better still, cow’s milk, to which.
If inclined to dyspepsia, a little lime
water may be added, will make life
now a burden worth living, and yon
need no other treatment to correct
your nervousness and brighten your
vision and give you sweet and peace
ful sleep.
Frightful World.
Church—The times are nerve-rack
ing.
Gotham—What's wrong now?
“Why, when we entered a friend's
house we used to be met by one of
those awful bear heads od the rug.
and now they're introducing Chinese
dragon rugs!"
Beautiful Nerve
Yeast—According to a Berlin nerve
specialist knitting in bed is an ex
cellent antidote for tired nerves.
Crimsonbeak—Well, I should say
that the fellow who spent any time
knitting in bed would have a beautiful
nerve.
