Can You Take Your Medicine?
A man should start out in life with
s firm understanding with himself
that he Is going to succeed; that he
has undertaken to do a certain thing,
and, no matter how long it takes, or
how difficult the process, he is going
to do it.
He should resolve at the very out
set that if he fails in anything he
will make the best possible ue of
his failure, get the best possible le-s-
ion from it; that he will make of it
a stepping-stone instead of a stumb
ling-block. He should resolve that
every ictback shall ultimately prove
sn advance. '
There is everything in stating out
with sn undrMamling with yourself
that there Is nothing else for you
but the goal, that you are going to
get there sooner or later 'no matter
what stands in your way.
If you are only half committed to
your proposition, however, if you are
so loosely attached to your vocation
that the least opposition will shake
you from It, you will never get any
where. "Success Magazine."
THE RULING PASSION.
The father of a family, all of whom
were devotees of bridge and much
given to talking the game and hold
ing post-mortems over badly played
hands, died rather suddenly. There
was a difference of opinion as to whe
ther he should be buried in the fam
ily plot or cremated. In the course of
the discussion the mother said weep-
ingly to hr son:
"John, what do you think?"
"I leave it to you, mother?"
'I make it sp-spades," was her re
ply, Ex. I
Beware of Frequent Colds,
A succession of colds or a pro
tracted cold is almost certain to end
in chronic catarrh, from which few
persons ever wholly recover. Give
every cold the attention it deserves
and you may avoid this disagreeable
disease. How can you cure a cold?
Why not try Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy? It is highly recommend
ed. Mrs. M. White, of Butler, Tenn.,
says: "Several years ago I was
bothered with my throat and lungs.
Someone told me of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. I began using it
and it relieved me at once. Now my
throat and lungs are sound and
well." For sale by Frank Hart and
leading druggist.
PINE BLUFF SAFER.
PINE BLUFF, Dec. 2.-A more
hopeful feeling prevailed tonight
when the river authorities predicted
that the crest of the high wave
would pass here by tomorrow night.
It is believed that the water will
reach one foot over the prevous flood
stage, The situation tonight is dia-
tinvtly better Knd if the fascines or
willow mattresses hold until Thurs
day night, the worst danger will be
over, The north bank of the river
coved raoldlv today giving relief to
the south banK of Pine Bluff and the
swift current not striking the endan
gered ground with such force as
formerly. The court house and Ber
lins stable are now the principal
danger points. Port of the stable
collapsed late today. AH movables
'have been carried . away from the
court house. The situations in the
rear of the Hotel Jefferson are no
wc:e than yesterday and hopes are
entertained that this structure will
be saved,
