There is a structure which every institution builds for
itself. It is called character, and every act is a stone in
this stucture.
An institution, in order to have a good character, must
think honestly, act honestty, breathe honesty. The
people soon determine between the genuine and the
counterfeit. They know the ring of the true metal
and the base.

IF WOMEN ONLY KNEW
What a Heap of Happiness It
Would Bring to Newport
Homes.
Hard to do housework with an
iching back.
Brings you hours of misery at j
leisure or at work.
1 f women only knew the cause !
—that
Backache pains often come
from weak kidneys,
’Twould save much needless i
woe.
Doan’s Kidney Pills are for
weak kidneys,
Many residents of this vicin
ity endorse them.
Mrs. T. L. Stewart, Kensett,
Arkansas, says: “I have not
had any sign of kidney com
plaint since I was cured by j
Doan’s Kidney Pills some years'
ago. I publicly testified to the
iperit of the remedy at that
time and now I gladly confirm
that statement.”
Price 50c, at all dealers.
Don’t simply ask for a kidney
remedy—get Doan’s Kidney
Pills—the same that Mrs. Stew

HELPLESS AS BABY
Down in Blind Unable to Work,
and What Helped Her.
Summit Point, W. Va.—Mrs. Anna
Prli* Emer, of this place, says: “I suf
fered for 15 years with an awful pain a
my right side, caused from womanly
trouble, and doctored lots tor it, but with
out success. 1 suffered so very much,
that I became down In mind, and as help
less as a baby. I was in the worst kind
of shape. Was unable to do any work.
I began taking Cardui, the womar’l
tonic, and got relief from the very Aral
dose. Bv the Arne I had taken Ii bot
ties, my health was completely remorea.
I am now 48 years years old, out teel ai
good as 1 did when only 16.
Cardui certainly saved me from losing
my mind, and 1 feel it my duty to speak
In its favor. I wish I had some powei
over poor, suffering women, and could
make them know the good tt would da
them.”
If you suffer from any of the ailments
peculiar to women, it will certainly .I*
worth your while to give Cardui a trial.
It has oeen helping weak women foi
more than 50 years, and will help you,
too.
Try Cardui. Your druggist sells it

Alfalfa Campaign.
Special to Independent.
Little Rock, Jan. (5.—One of
the greatest alfalfa and agricul
tural campaigns the state has
ever known is being arranged by
Commissioner John H. Rage, lie
has been in correspondence be
some time with Rrof. R. C. Hol

division of farm extension of
the International Harvester Co.
He is about ready to announc 1
the details of the plan.
Dr. Holden will come to the
state with his corps of fifteen
lecturers and assistants. They
will go into a county to be met
at the county seat with automo
biles sufficient to transport the
lecturers to points in the sur
rounding country where meet
ings have been previously ad
vertised. Each lecturer will go
to a different point, delivering
two lectures during the day,
making thirty lectures in the
county in one day, delivered at
different points where they are
available to all the farmers.
The lectures are free to all,
the only expense being the auto
mobiles and the hotel bills, all
salaries being otherwise provid
ed for.
Mr. Page is taking up the prop
osition in the several counties,
and says that he has already re
ceived a great deal of encour
agement. The campaigns may
