rum of Mrs. B. Cans, whose house we found full of customers from up the Fort Smith road, (the result of her good business sense in judicious advertising), ), securing bargains and choice goods. We were pleased to know that this house is prospering largely.
 While we regretted not being able to see our handsome young friend Berhays, of the popular Jewelry House of Bernays& X Roeck, peep into their show window, convinced us that this house holds the horns as Headquarters for all goods in the jewelry line.
 Not getting out Main street as far as No. 107, we failed to see the hand some display of Books, Stationary, Gold pens and Stationers' Supplies for which our friends Wilson & Webb have acquired an enviable reputa- tion. No cleverer gentlemen ever waited on customer than they, and we regretted not getting to see them. We hope their house may al- ways be as popular and as much of a favorite as it has always been in the past.
 We also failed to meet another of our valued advertisers, Mr. T. J. Ol. iphint, of legal lore, gentleman who graces his profession, and pleases his clients at all times. We hope he is making fortune equal to the Rothschilds.
 A NEW ENTERPRIsE.-1t always affords us degree of qualification to note the establishment of new CD terprises in our town, and to com mend all worthy efforts in this direc- tion. But we now have an opportu- nity of mentioning one which affords us more pleasure than common, be- cause we believe it is calculated to confer greater benefit upon this community, and indeed we might say, upon the people of the whole State, for it is the intention of the gentlemen who have gone into this new undertaking to introduce their work into every county in the State. The enterprise that we now speak of is the manufacturing of q new and improved Fruit Drying aparatus, the invention also answering the pur pose of portable baker. Messrs. J. l.. Shinn x Go. are the gentlemen who have established the business here. They own the exclusive right to manufacture and sell these Fruit Dryers in the State of Arkansas, and and they propose to put sufficient capital and labor at work in the man ufacturing of them to supply all or ders with promptness and dispatch They will turn out about 15 or 20 of them per week and more if neces- sary. The Dryer commends itself to any intelligent man at first sight, and no man who owns an orchard can afford to be without one. The Dryer is put up in two sizes, the smaller having a capacity of drying about 3 bushels of fruit per day and the larger twice as much. It is simple and easily managed and anybody can make money drying fruit with it. The folly of allowing fine lot of fruit to go to waste has always struck us as being great piece of extravaganza on the part of the or chard owners. With one of these patent Fruit Dryers this waste and folly need not exist, and if our or chard owneas will utilize thls new invention their orchards will begin to yield them a handsome profit. The fruit drird by this process IS almost equal to that prepared by the Celebrated Alden Process, and is worth double the price of sun dried fruit. Every orchard owner ought to order one or more of these Dryers.
