Draper, N C—Mrs. Helen Dalton, of this place, says: “I suffered for years, wun pains in my leftside, and would often almost smother to death. Medicines patched me up for awhile out then 1 would get worse again. Final ly, my husband decided he wanted me to | try Cardui, the weman’s tonic, so he bought me a bottle and I began using it. It did me more good than all the medi cines 1 had Uken. I have induced many of my friends to Ty Cardui, and they all say’ they have seen benefited by its use. There never aas been, and never will be, a medicine Io compare with Cardui. I believe it is i good medicine for all womanly trou oles.” For over 50 years, Cardui has beer re lieving woman’s sufferings and building weak women up to health and strength.

Sold in Batesville by E. R. Goodwin and the Casey Drug Co. Iwd Capt. A. Monroe Young Friday, February 26, 1916, de parted this life at the residence of hie son in law, J. M. Watkins, in Konowa, Okla., another of our old, true, tried and fondly cherished friends, one of the rapidly diminishing number of Confederate veterans. Capt. Young came to Independence county as a child with his parents from Illinois about the year 1842, and grew to manhood in this county, an swering his country’s call to arms in 1861, as one of Capt. Sim Cason’s company in Desha’s battallion, of which battallion at its organization he was color sergeant, serving through the war and rising to the rank of lieutenant, commanding his company at the close. Returning to civil life, he resumed his occupation as a stone mason, and a number of the most substantial business houses i f the city ate monuments to his in dustry and skill. Leaving our city, he established himself at Dennieville, a few miles west of here, as resident manager for the Dennie Lime Com pany of Little Rock, in which busi ness he continued until the loss of his i xatly loved wife. His own impaired health and advancing age rendered him unfit for the active life he had always led. Making his home with a daughter, the wife of Mr. J. M. Watkins, for merly connected with this paper, he removed with them to Oklahoma, where he was tenderly cared for by dihoted children. At the ripe old age of 81 years he passed to that “undis covered country” whence no traveler returns. Yet we are assured it is well with him. “How blest the righteous when he dies, When sinks the weary soul to rest. How mildly beam the closing eyes, How gently heaves the expiring breast. Life’s duties done as sinks the clay, Light from its load the spirit flies, While Heaven and earth unite to say. How blest the righteous when he dies.” iffnL -F. P. Legislative and Otherwise. The house looks with favor upon a bill introduced by Representative Jeter, providing for the removal of the state reform school to a better location, on a tract of farming land not to exceed 200 acres. It also pro vides that the name of the institution be changed to the boys’ industrial school of Arkansas. The property now being used by the institution is to be converted into the girls’ indus trial school of Arkansas. In addition to requirements under the present law, now governing the state reform school, it is provided that special at tention be given by the managers to the industrial feature of the school, to the end that agriculture, science or some useful trade or vocation may be taught each child, also that literary training be given them. The house Monday afternoon for the second time defeated a bill by Representative Dowdy providing for the management of the state’s insti tutions. The first bill abolished all boards and commissions and provided for the control of all penal, educa tional anti eleemosynary institutions. The one defeated Monday abolished only the penitentiary commission and the state boaie of charitable institu tions, and substituted therefor a board ofseven members to be elected from the various congressional dis ticts, who should devote all their time to the affairs of the institutions. H. N. t attrell, agricultural com missioner of the Rock Inland railroaff, । : I s attention of the farmers of A”- sansas to the fact that the United States department of agriculture, in t February bulletin, states that the supply of northern Irish potatoes now on hand is larger than any of the past five years. They estimate that January 1 there were in storage 166,- 846,000 bushels in the chief northern ’ Irish potato growing states. This is 43,500,000 bushels more than were in 1 storage the year before. This is im portant information for those who are nb-nning to grow potatoes for the northern market, as this enormous I surplus will likely lower the price ser । iously.
