"it is n great annoyance to a great
many pqople to have streets left for a
long period in a torn-sip condition or
closed to traffic for any length of time
even when every clTort is being made to
hurry the work with all possible des-
patch but when a longer time is taken
to perform work that renders the thor-
oughfare impassable for the time being
annoyance reaches the point of exasper-
ation. When work is to bo done on the
pubHe streets of a sort that interfers
with traffic it shoubl lie pushed with
vigor until finished and the public dis-
commoded as little as posibie and the
city administration owes it to the public
to see Lhat this is done.”—Daily Express.
While the Light lias been seoring the
city administration for permitting bhe
Paving company to titir up «ur streets
and sidewalks and make them impas-
sable for months at a time the Express
was printing hot air interviews for this
promising eompiny: but i/nv it ia-gins
to wail in an indirect manner about “the
delays etc.” Why don't it come out
plainly and voice Hie sentiments of the
public which are that the city officials
should cither make the Procrastination
comjxiny do the paving according to con-
tract or else forfeit the job?
As is well known the time of the orig-
inal paving contract has expired. The
extension of the contract for ■seventy-
five days has also gone glimmering still
flitre is only one street paved—and how
'is it paved!
There will of course Ire more ‘‘exten
aions" of time changes etc. made to
suit the company.
If there is anything that this com-
pany wants from the city’s rode nt
the Springs to the city hall'itself let
them ask ior it.

THE SAME OLD SONG

A FISHING PARTY
Returns and Ono of the Number Tells
Some Fishy Stories.
Editor Dally Light:
Fishing parties being all the rage
and up to date a party of us coLt.at-
ing of Henry Reiulnger Sr. Charles
a id AIL H< Inlnger Jr. Fritz Bruhn.
Rud. Huebner and my humble self
tiled ua off into the mountains blong
the Medina river. Reaching tne riv-
er the first thing we caught was a
good drenching good for someone's
crop and enjoyed by the Medina coun-
ty farmers'but not by our gay fishing
jiarty. Well we fished and fished;
Koinetimes wc llshcd for eacu other
but our main fishing was done In our
camp-pots with spoons. Our luck
soon changed liecausc we became pl-
oub Henry lleinlnger offering up a
fishy prayer. Then with bowed
heads wc baited our hooks and nol-
emnly cast them Into the waters
when Io and bi'bold wc were reward-
ed by landing a tine string of n»n.
Luck wau now on our side. We
caught large and small cats bass and
perch with alligator gars thrown in.
Henry Rejninger said one bit him
on the leg. but upon examination it
proved to be a tick bite.
We cairzht most fish by moonlight.
The bluffs on both sides of the river
with their grim dizzy heights fur-
rowed by ages large gaping caverns
at their base the stillness of the
night gave one an uncanny feeling.
My thoughts wandered to bygone
times when wild beasts and Indians
had possession of these rough and
rocky mountains almost imagining
they still lurked in some shadowy
cleft.
1 was suddenly called back to earth-
ly surroundings by hearing cries for
"help! help! help!" Dropping my
pole I ran a 3 best I could falling over
logs and boulders repeating the cry
for help to my companions. Several
of us arrived at the spot out of breath
clothing in tatters to find Henry
Reininger with broken pole and eyes
bulging out of his head trying to
tell us in three languages how a big
fish bigger than his lop eared mule
had broken his pole and nearly car-
ried him into the river but upon ex-
amination it proved he had hooked
his line into another with which a ent
fish was staked having been caught
and tied there previously. Our laugh
on Henry almost repaid us for the
scare sore shins and the torn cloth-
ing. Having fished and eaten fish to
our hearts' content leaving fish en-
ough behind for some other fishy
pally to catch and concluding to re-
turn home we scraped the ticks off
with a shovel borrowed from a kind
farmer and bade adieu to stream and
fish having enjoyed a few days
among the never to be forgotten Me-
dina mountains.

QUESTIONS ANSWERED.
Yes August Flower stil lias the largest
sale of any medicine in the civilized
world. Your mothers or grandmothers
never thought of using anything else for
indigestion or billiousnees. Doctors were
scarce ami they seldom heard of A|»peu-
dicitur. Nervous Prostration or Heart
Failure etc. They used August Flower
to clean out the system and stop fermen-
tation of undigested food regulate the
action of the liver stimulate the ner-
vous and organic action of the system
and that is all that they took when feel-
ing dull and had with headaches and oth-
er aches. You only need a few doses
of Green's August Flower in liquid form
to make you satisfied there is nothing
serious the matter with you. Get
Green's Prize Almanac. tf
UP FOR COMMISSIONS.
Among the List Are Messrs. Keyes and
•. Kellar of This City.

A J. Cottingham went to Washington
county Ark. to sec his sister and while
there waa taken with flux (dysentery)
and was very bad off. He decided to
try Chamberlains Colic Cholera and Di-
arrhoea Remedy and was so much pleas-
ed with the prompt cure it effected that
he wrote the manufacturers a letter in
praise of their medicine. Mr. Cotting-
ham resides at Lockland Ark. This
remedy is for sale by all druggists.
A LITTLE ADVICE.
The street car com|>any should strictly
forbid its employes to entertain each
other -when on duty. It can be fre-
ipieiitly observisl that Hie conductor gets
on the running board or on the platform
w ith the motorinan where both are deep-
ly engaged in a prolonged conversation.
That th" carefiilncw iwhich is necessary
for conducting a fast-nmning electric
ear suffers thereby is only natural.—
