FRIDAY, JANUABY 18, 1907 THE DAILY ARKANSAS DEMOCRAT THE METROPOLIS LOANS pecials I IN THE CITY OF ARGENTA ay Day IS PURITY A OPTHB SYSTEM Doesn't It stand to reason, that for perfect health, the human system must: be kept pure and dean, inside as well as outside? Then take Cas carets, the world-famous Bowel Medicine and system-cleaners, that will help you KEEP CLEAN INSIDE. Is the Secret of COMPLETE HEALTH. The test of this week and Monday, ihe following winners are offered: Northern Irish potatoes, 75c per bushel. 3 lb. Standard dozen, Granulated Sugar, 19 lbs.

for $1.00, 25 lbs. for $1.35, or $5.15 for 100 lbs. BE WISE AND LAY IN A SUPPLY. The body of man is the most perfect and delicate mechanism in existence, and the least OBSTRUCTION or accumulation of filth in any part of it, will make it hobble, move IRREGULARLY and SPASMODICALLY, and if not attended to promptly may stop the machine altogether. Isn't that plain common sense to any person that has had any experience with machinery of human invention; from the sewing machine to the triple-expansion engine? All the parts, joints, connections, gearings, must be kept absolutely pure and dean to get the best results.

A careless, untidy engineer is a failure and will lose his job. Nature has been kind to ns by handing over to ui to be occupied daring our earthly existence, an almost automatic, elastic mechanism, that will run itself if only properly cared for. All that She asks, that the body be supplied with "Pure Food" fuel of the right kind, applied in the right way, that a lubricant be furnished for the joints, muscles, nerves through the marvelous distributing and collecting system of arteries and veins, and -that all parts of the engine be osed for the purposes intended without undue strain, But, when little mistakes are made in earing and drinking, with perhaps excessive exertion, there is a liability of a stoppage in the natural cleansing process, and you are liable to become UNCLEAN INSIDE. That means obstruction, stoppage of the normal functions, ferments, tion, poisoning of the blood by your own decaying sewage, and a liability of the development of any of hundreds of serious diseases. Cascareta Candy Cathartic are fragrant, sweet, mild but effective little tablets that were first compounded from pure, harmless, vegetable substances, under a Pure Drug of their own, in 1896..

These tablets proved to be the greatest lubricators for the Bowels ever discovered, and. at the same time a destroyer of disease germs in the whole alimentary (food) canal. They have now a sale of over a million boxes a month. They are a pure, reliable, means of keeping the system clean, prevent- ing all diseases arising from accumulations in Constipation, and also reliev- ing and aiding the cure of chronic conditions after they have developed from neglect. Begin today to watch your conditions, be careful of your food and general methods of living and learn to take precaution of "Keeping Clean In side" with Cascareta.

Buy a little 10c. box from your own druggist TODAY, be convinced and Join our MILLIONS OP FRIENDS. Be sureto "Get What You Ask For" the Genuine, every tablet stamped tsj OF THE EAST Suggestion of Secretary Brown, of the Board of Trade, That Arkansas Unite In Building TJp an Arkansas Metropolis on Mississippi Elver. There Is certainly food for thought In the replr of Becratsrr Brown of the Board or Trade, to President B. C.

Horner of the Business Men's League of Helena. A day or two since both President Bogers of the uoara or Trade and the secretary, were advised that they were to be Invited to a function to be given at Helena oa the 24th 4nt. by the Business Hen's League of that city. The letter to Mr. Brown stated tnat tbe members of the league hoped tnat he could arranre matters to that end and believed that much good can be accumpugnea ny a closer relationship be tween tne "Capital City" and the "Metropolis of the East." Mr.

Brown In acknowledging the courtesy, spoke most cordially as follows: 'I beg to acknowledge recelDt of vonr Kino invitation or the 10th Inst, to attend a smoker to be given by roar league on tne Z4th Inst. "I regret more than I can exnress mv Inability to. be with yon. There IS no place In the state for which I have warmer feeling than Helena, and in addition to yourself, I have many good friends among your citizenship. Including such valuable men as Mr.

W. A'. Short and Mr. Hd 8. Ready.

I hope that the near future will see Llttlo Rock and Helena closely connected by roll. It wquld be of decided advantage to both cities. -I believe that the building of a great metropolis on the west side or the Mississippi river would be of Inestimable value to tho people of tne 'entire state or Arkansas. Tbe greatness of Memphis Is largely due more to the efforts of Arkansas people than to any other rnuse. Why not build up a similar city? Yon have the river.

You already have a number of railroads, you can get more. The future of Helena Is bright and the combined efforts of your hcttleenr-cnmnake-1t-brilllRntr-ana In work to that end you ran count on oar most sincere and cordial co-operation. Conversing oh the snhjert with a Demo crat representative, Mr. Brown said that nothing would please him better than to see Helena become realty the "Metropolis of the East," so far as Arkansas Is concerned. "And why not?" said the gentleman.

"Helena Is well located on high ground, has all the year round Mississippi river transportation. Rhc has every natural advantage enjoyed by Memphis; she has several railroads, will soon have the North Arkansas, and others will follow. There ts no reason why she shouldn't grow rapidly, and become a second Memphis, and It would be to the Interest of Arkansas to see her surpass Memphis. Memphis Interests have always been Inimical to Arkansas, and she has grown great on the profits made through business relations with Arkansas people. 8he has fought us at every turn, and the battles have gone even to the chambers of the Interstate Commerce Commission.

Let ns all give a strong right hand to Helena; let's help boost -Helena; we would be helping Arkansas and if once we had a great commerclnt center at Helena, It wonld he a friendly city Instead of a jealous and unscrupulous busluess rival. Memphis has forced contracts and agreements with the railroads that are burdensome to the roads and unjust to every Jobbing point in Arkansas." i Always. fch Ftoll axative Kromo (Quinui0 Cnrea a Cold InOneDay, Ci-ipln a Days NEW GOVERNOR INAUGURATED Jeff Davis Retires After Six Tears Continuous Service as Governor of Arkansas, and Is Succeeded by Hon.

As the hour for the ceremonies ap proached the house gallery and lobby filled and the floor of the house was taxed. Many prominent people occupied seats on the floor and the gallery. After the formality of administering the oath, and it had been subscribed to, Governor Little delivered his Inaugural address, which appears elsewhere tu this Issue. The receipt of the final message of the retiring governor and the Inauguration 6f Governor Little occupied the greater part of the day, and but little work was done In either house. This afternoon there sits In the north end of the west wing of the old State-house the gentleman from Sebastian, who today became the gentleman from Arkansas.

With him la Adjutant General Paul Little, private secretary to the governor, who succeeds Hon, Charles Jncobson. The Inauguration today marks tne last ceremonies of this kind to occur In the historic old pile which had done duty as tbe state government house since 1837, with the exception of the period when the capital wos occupied by federal troops, and the sent of government was temporarily located at Washington. The ceremonies were most impressive, but there was but little, display, which was In keeping with the requests of 3ov-ernor Little. The administering of the oath was a most solemn moment, and a hnsh fell over the gathered multitude, while Justice Wood of the snpreme court told off tbe words composing the onth. And while the new governor stooped to sign his name to that Instrument bind- nr him to the support or tne constitu tions of the United States and of the state of Arkansas, the sacredness of the moment was felt by all.

In the assembled throng there was no levity, bnt all seemed to appreciate the opportnnlty of witnessing the Induction Into office of the new chief executive.

The Merchants' Fire differs from' bhe other local companies in that it is the only company organized under the laws of Arkansas with a paid-up surplus, as under the laws of Arkansas all stock companies are required to keep on hand as a reserve 50 per cent of the gross premiums received on one-year policies and 83 1-3 per eent of the gross premiums received on three-year policies issued during the preceding year, which is a liability; and as their expenses run about 40 per cent, their losses at first must be very light or their capital will be impaired, and as the auditor of the state cannot allow them to do business with a capital impaired more than 20 per cent it can readily be seen that a few heavy fires at the beginning would bring a new company's assets below the require? ments of' the law unless they have a surplus, and Buch a company would have to cease writing business. The Merchants' is fortunate to have" embodied this important feature In their organization, which now enable them td set aside the reserve required, with their capital unimpaired, and still have a nice net surplus left.
