WANTS A RAILROAD.
Fort Smith Petitions the
State For Aid.
The Commercial League o! Fort
Smith, Ark., is working bard for
a new railroad from that city to
Harrison in Boone county. Such
a road wonld bring together the
vast mineral and timber resources
of several counties and tap the
coal fields of Sebastian county.
It seems that the Arkansas legis-
lature passed an act known as the
'Bush Bill" in which the state
agrees to aid in building railroads
provided said road is profitable
to the state, and provided further
that the road is built through a
country in which there are now
no railroads. The Commercial
League has addressed Hon. D. W.
Jones, chairman of the board. In
the address appears the following
paragraph:
Such a road would be upon an
air line from this southwestern
region to St. Louis. Already a
charter has been taken out for a
railroad from St. Louis to Har-
rison, and a survey made, and a
survey is [now in progress from
Gainesville, Tex., to Fort Smith to
connect with this air line which if
completed to Fort Smith would
save in distance from this city to
St. Louis about one hundred
miles, and if completed to Gaines-
ville, Tex., would save nearly two
hundred miles over any compet-
ing line. So it will readily be
seen that this great southwestern
region, as it develops will pour its
traffio through this road when
completed, as through a funnel,
rendering it one of the most profit-
able, if not the most profitable,
road in the United States. If the
state would own this cornecting
link she could lease it almost
upon her own terms.

MONTHLY
SUFFERING.
*J*housands of
women are
troubled at
monthly inter-
vals with pains
in the head,
back, breasts,
shoulders,sides
hips and limbs.
But they need
not suffer.
These pains are symptoms of
dangerous derangements that
can be corrected. The men-
strual function should operate
painlessly.
MM
makes menstruation painless,
and regular. It puts the deli-
cate menstrual organs in condi-
tion to do their work properly.
And that stops all this pain.
Why will any woman suffer
month after month when Wine
of Cardui will relieve her? It
jeosts $1.00 at the drug store.
Why don't you get a bottle
to-day?

In acoord with the
quest of many of th«
shall open a school in <
early in September.
Good quarters will be secured
and all tbat is possible dene to
make it most pleasant and profit-
able for the students who attead.
While I shall endeavor to do
the best work for all, I do not ad-
vise the attendanoe of. pupils who
fit well in their grades in the pub*
lie schools.
1 shall arrange a valuable
course for graduates of the High
school, including those branehee
in which they most need to be-
come proficient. Unless they
wish to pursue some special Uae
of study this course will be as
profitable for graduates as any
they can find by going elsewhere.
A normal course will be ar-
ranged for students who wish to
prepare for teaching; also a busi-
ness course including bookkeep-
ing and commercial arithmetic.
Tuition rates will be #5 per
month for the normal course; also
for graduates of the High school
and those of equal attainment; $4
per month for younger students,
payable in advance.
This refers to pupils of suffi-
cient advancement to enter the
High school. Should those of
lower grades wish to attend other
arrangements will be made ac-
cording to number.
For further particulars please
communicate with me at Pearaall,
Tex., until August 15, after
at Gainesville.
