TOrturcs that need not be En-
 dured,

People suffer great deal of pain un- necessarily. Among tortures that need rot be endured are those afflicted by the rheumatism and gout, since the acrid element in the blood which pro duces them by contact with the sensi- tive covering of the muscles and joints may be eliminated by the use of that matchless depurent, Iiostetters Stom- ach Bitters, before the inllammatory symptoms are developed to any'great extent. When it is considered what excrutiating tortures it inflicts, and what ten lency it has, when fully de- ycloped, to attack the heart, the advisa- bility of an early use of such a reliable antidote becomes at once apparent. The rheumatic virus is expelled from the blood by the increased action of the kidneys-which act as strainers --pro- duced by the Bitters, and the sufferer will find, if he uses this supreme de- fensive agent, that he will be protected against a return of the agonizing com plaint. Dyspepsia, fever and ague, liver and bowel complaints and other maladies, are also cured by this admir- able remedy.

 Quite number of our young pco- pie attended quarterly meeting 1t Hap py Bend last Sunday. The Rev. Mi. IIaralson preached one of his best ser mons, and all left feeling amply repaid.
 MT. J. c. Prcwett, the princely attendant to the wants of the inner man is about to erect residence on the corner of his lot. Mir. F. by his gen. tlemanly department has won many friends here and we class him among our best citizens.

 MT. D, NJ. Mourning one of our leading merchants left for the East last week and the readers of the DEMOCRAT in this section of the county may look for something nice in the way of spring goods on his return.
 MT Oscar Bejach who started for California some time since, wisely changed his notion after gaining the "Future Great" and returned. He has purchased Mr. A. Bejach's interest in their business here and says Atkins is good enough for him. Wisely said Oscar.
 We would like to call the attention of q certain party of our young folks to the Commandment which reads: {: Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy;" or else out of respect for our Christian community move their cro- quet grounds from the street-to the enclosure shielded from the outside world by the picket fence that skirt the premises. We are not surprised that PORTION of the party would spend their Sabbath evenings thus, but we regret to see our young ladies encour- aging such immortality.

 Farmers are planting cotton.
 County and Probate Court this week.
 Rather warm these days for the mid die of April.
 Now that we have a daily mail we are in favor of having the Post Office moved up in town.
 Messrs. Jamison and Hobbs, proprie tors of the Dover manufacturing estab- lishment are turning out some nice work in the way of agricultural imple- ments. They find ready sale for all their work and could sell as much more. This is move in the right direction and we hope in year or two to see all our agricultural implements manufac- tured al home.
 Col. E. T. Mcconnell, of Clarksville, everything 70. K.' in old Johnson. We "kinder' suspect '.Budo will be the next Sheriff of that Caunty. If so our sister County will have almost as good one as we have. We don't think she can get any better, but Ben How ard says he don't intend to vote for Hogins, as he made him pay his taxes.
 Wheat in this locality is greatly dam aged by the Hessian fly. Several fiel1s are almost entirely ruined. This insect comes in the fall before there is any frost and deposits its eggs which feed upon the stalk of wheat in the spring and destroys it.
 The old war veteran, Major David West, was in town few days last week. The Major has fought in the United States army in every foreign war she has ever engaged in since she gained her Independence, and all the Indian wars of any note. If there is another man in Arkansas who has done this he would like to hear from him as he wants to form his aequaint- ance.
 We think from present indications that Dover will soon need new teacher in her College, as we unoer- stand that our Prof. has more now than he can well attend to, though we hear it hinted that by applying himself to the task of teaching ALL the students he might at least stop the Adding and dancing at recess. Too close applica- ton to one student to the exclusion of others is not the most approved style of teaching-though this may be the way now, yet it was not so when we were young. It may be jealousy on the part of the boys that makes them talk so.

FINE CUTS.

Cash buyers will do well to eXaA- inc Wilson's stock and prices before purchasing elsewhere.
 -One of the most beautiful and fra grant boquets we have ever seen was placed upon our table this week, with the compliments of Mrs. r. M. Latta. To her we tender our sincere thanks for the Kind remembrance.
 -Messrs. Wooten & Co.,, are just in receipt of splendid line of groceries and are selling them very cheap; in fact they wish it distinctly understood that they will not be undersold.
 -SrocKHoLDERs MEErNG.-There will be meeting of the Stockholders of the Russellville Printing X Publish ing Association on tomorrow tFriday) night, at the Company's office, for the transaction of business.
 If any one is doubtful about Will sons low CASH prices, let them go and see for themselves; to do so is to be convinced.
 -WANrED.- Walnut rails; any one having walnut rails that they wish to dispose of, can get cash for same by bringing them to the Chair Factory.
 If you have not yet paid your taxes go at once and do 50, for you only have to-day, tomorrow and next day. After that the penalty and costs will be en- tered up.
 -WANTED.-Any person reading this who has any dry lumber either boards or scautling, if it is only one or two pieces, can sell the same for cash at the Furniture Factory.
 READ TirIs CAREFULLY.-All having old or wornout furniture that has been thrown aside as worthless, can have the same renovated and made good as new, if brought to the Furniture and Chair Factory.
 This week Wilson is still crowded with custo ners, but takes pleasure in saying to his friends and customers that he is offering goods for cash lower than ever before offered in Russellyille.
 We make our most profound bow of acknowledgement to Misses Ella Peck and Wick Anderson, and Messrs. Chas. Shinn ard Jimmie Lewis for a very sweet sercnade Monday night.

.GerI,lan SXrun.-,

No other medicine in the world was ever given such q test of its curative qualities as Boschee's German Syrup. In three years two millions four hun dred thousand small bottles of this medicine were distributed free of charge by Druggists in the country to those afflicted with Consumption, Asthma, Group, severe Coughs, Pncu- monia and other diseasef of the throat and lungs, giving the American people uudeniable proof that German Syrup will cure them. The result has been that Druggists in every town and, vil- lage ill the United States are reeom- mending it to their customers. Go 10 your Druggist, and ask what they know about it. sample bottles 10 cents. Regular size 75 cents. Three doses will relieve any case. For sale by J. NJ. Harkey & Bro.

 "A friend at our elbow suggests that MT. smith "rise and explainp why he went post haste to Prairie Grove last TuesdN evening. What went ye out for to see, Charlie?
 There was such rush at k. J.. Wilson's last week, and having so many new goods to open, he failed to advertise his new stock.
 We have never yet had a more fa- vorable prospect thus far for a m agnifi- cent fruit and grain crop than we now have in Pope county. And we think the fruit is now safe, as it has grown too warm and too far advanced in the spring for any more cold snaps.
 Why cannot we have an excursion from Little Rock to Fort Smith on the Little Rock X Fort Smith Railway. If all the towns along the line would take an interest in the matter we believe Supt. Hartman could be induced to run special train for the purpose. It would be a delightful trip and one that many would enjoy. The border City would afford many attractions for those who would attend. What says the Democrats, Heralds, Argus, Press, etc. -Lewisburg State.
 Enough said Ed. We are always ill for little fun.
 The following note will show that Circuit Court did not sit nearly three weeks in this county for nothing. And ! it shows, too, that offenders may expect sure and speedy punishment to reach them if they misdemean themselves in this County:

PERSONAL MENTION.

MT. Geo. Stirman and Mir. Cass Adams, of Dardanelle, made us pleas- ant call last Monday.
 Major J. P. Byers honored our sanctum with his presence a few mo- ments last Monday, and was full of good cheer and urbanity as usual.
 -Eld. G. W. Reeves, pastor of the Baptist Church, at this place, left Tues day last for a short visit to Tennessee. We wish him a pleasant trip.
 MT. E. II. Shinn returned from Washington County last Saturday and looks as though the mountain air and water agreed with him.
 MT. J. J. Rankin, of Griffin town ship made us a pleasant call Tuesday. He informs us that in his township 59S bales of cotton were ginned this season.
 --Profs. Mason and Gray did us the honor to drop in and see us last week. Prof. Gray is from Ohio and has come South to hunt home in ou" sunny cline. He will engage in teaching at Norristown.
 --Dr. Win. Hall, of Covington, Tenn, d gentleman whose conversation and appearance indicates that he is the right kind of a man, was in our town Monday viewing the situation here. The Dr. is looking up a location to en- gage in the mercantile business, and has been up this road as far as Alma. We should be proud to secure him as a citizen and we don't think he will do better than to stop right here.
 We have had the pleasure this week of forming the acquaintance of Dr. Vim. Maxwell, of Hu unboldt, Tenn, Postmaster of the State Grange of Tenn, and now President of the South western Cooperative Association. We are indebted to him for copy of the Articles of Association and By-laws of the Association. We have not yet had time to examine the same and therefore cannot pronounce upon the merits of the plan.

A Gentle Hint.

In our style of climate, with it's sud- den changes of temperature, --rain, wind and sunshine often intermingled in single day,-it is no wonder that our children, friends and relatives are so frequently taken from us by neglect ed colds, half the deaths resulting di- rectlv from this cause. A bottle Of Boschee's German. Syrup kept about your home$or immediate use will pre- vent serious sickness, large doctor s bill, and perhaps death, by the use of three or four doses. For curing Con- sumption, Hemorrages, Pneumonia, Severe Coughs, Group or any disease O. the Throat or Lungs, it's success is sIn- ply wonderful, as your druggist will tell you. German Syiup is now sold Ill every town and village on this conti- nent. Sample bottles for trial, Toe. regular size 75c. For sale by J. M. Harkey & Rro.
