State Superintendent John H.
1 rfinemon makes the following
argument in favor of the pro
posed law:
“One of the chief difficulties
in checking tne evn oi Dima
tigers is in obtaining proof that
the individuals have obtained
United States license to sell
liquor. The'Humphreys bill, if
enacted into a law, will give an
additional means of putting a
stop to the blind-tiger business
in this state. No form of law
breaking has a more demoraliz
ing effect upon a community
than the blind-tiger business.
Of course the whisky men of the
country will organize to prevent
the passage of the Humphreps
bill. The people who are in
favor of temperance, law and
order should show their interest
in the passage of this measure
by communicating directly with
members of congress and the
United States senators on the
subject.”
Cotter Roundhouse.
The foundation for the round
house, with the exception of
the two wings, is practically
completed and next week the
frame work will be started says
the Cotter Courier. The front
of the completed building to the
roof will be 30 feet high, and
the rear side will be 26. On top
fVws Qnt-iro ofr'lipflirp will hp
tower or ventilator several feet
higher, bringing the total height
of the building to nearly 40 feet.
Work on the yard is delayed
because of no steam shovel to
i get out material for the fill. A
large crew of extra men is now
| on the ground to do this work.
At a point opposite the depot
the fill will be extended south of
the present fill about 50 feet,
and from there to Third street
will gradually widen, taking

WHEN THE KIDNEYS
ARE AILING.
The Urgent Need of Prompt Restora
tive Measures is Something
That Every One Should
Understand,
“A Stitch in Time Saves Nine.”’
Slight disorders in the kidneys or uri
nary organs are more serious than most
people think. The first warning symp
toms should receive prompt medical
treatment to ward off Bright’s Disease
or some other dangerous malady. When
the kidneys are ailing and the symptoms
become sufficiently pronounced to be
noticeable the condition calls at once
for prompt measures to stay the progress
of the disease. Prickly Ash Bitters is
the remedy needed. Taken on the ap
pearance of the first symptoms, such as
pain in the back, puffiness under the
eyes, irregularities in the urine, digestive
disorders, it will save the victim incal
culable misery and suffering, mental
torture and expense. Used at the begin
rung or rue irouoro u. cures quiciciy.
Used in the more advanced stages it will
win back health and strength as rapidly
as circumstances will possibly permit.
Accept no substitute. Insist on having
the genuine Prickly Ash Hitters with the
large figure 3 in red ou the front label.
Sold at Drug Stores, $1.00 Per bottle.
Epilepsy

checked, lead to destruction of
both mind and body. The
weak, shattered nerves must
have something to strengthen
and build them back to health.
Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nervine
is a remarkable nerve tonic and
stimulant. It strengthens the
nerves, relieves the nervous
strain, and influences refresh
ing body-building sleep and
rest. Persistent use seldom
fails to relieve these afflictions.
"I was taken with epileptic fits; had
eleven in less than 12 hours. My
father sent for our family physician,
out he could do very little for me, and
i grew worse every day, and at last
they bad three doctors with me, and I
still got worse. My father heard of
Dr. Miles’ medicines and bought a
aottle of Nervine and a box of Nerve
.nd Liver Pills. I had taken only a
few doses until I began to feel better
t took 12 bottles, and it cured mo
sound and well. It has Wen worth all
the world to me. I recommend it
wherever X go. You may use this as
a life-long testimonial to the merits
ft your medicine, for X am enjoying
the best of health, and feel that my
life and health is due to this wonderful
medicine.’' LEVY WI LI JAMS,
