The Greatest Medical! Discovery since the Crea-

There never has been "a time when the
healing OF so many different diseases has
been caused by outward application as the
present. II Is AN undisputCd TACT that over
nan OF me entire population OF thu globe re-

DR.. MELNIS's CAPsICCM Porous PLAsrERs
are acknowledged by all who have used

they ever before tried, and that one OF these
plasters Will do more +, al service than n hum

tiers ARE slow of action, and require 10 be
Worn ,C~ouiimually to etiecC n cure; but with
these 1t is e"tireiy different: the instant one
Is apnlled the patient will feel Its effect.

Farmers Talk.

We give elsewhere considera BILE
space to brief and pointed letters
from Lyon county farmers, showing
their opinions of Lyon as farming
and stock-raising county, and the con-
dition of the crops at the time of writ
ing. Several of the letters are from
farmers who have lived here ten, fif-
teen and twenty years, and there
could be no better testimony in favor
of the county than they furnish. We
are not aware that any of them, or at
least but two or three, are offering
places for sale, and they have no mo-
tives of self-interest in making their
statements. We do not desire any
better testimony for Kansas than that
which will be given all over the state
by those who have made fair trial Of
the country. Our letters cover the
district of country devastated in April
by the terrible tornado, and the point
we make by publishing them is to show
the recuperating qualities of our sol
and climate. Anyone following the
track of the tornado within a week aftel
it happened would have said the fields
of wheat were entirely ruined, and We
many of them recovered to such al
extent as to yield II and Is bushel
per acre.

ARKANSAS CITY JOYOUS.
The Arkansas River Navigab1e

The Arkansas River Navigsble.
From the windfeld Telegram.
At last the long suffering and pa
tient people of Arkansas City have
been rewarded. The steamboat that
they have so many years prayed for
has at last arrived and is now rest
ing quietly upon the waters of the
Walnut, Just east of Arkansas City
A proud day for Arkansas City was
that one upon which they heard the
whistle of the Little Rock steamer,
and knew that their fond hopes of
one day being able to prove to the
world that Arkansas City was locat-
ed upon a navigable river had been
realized, and we rejoice with them.
The whole of Cowley county rejoic-
es with Askansss City in her
victory.
The steamer which now floats up
on the bosom of the Walnut is
stern wheel steamer of sixty tons
burden, and is called "Aunt Sally"
She was formerly used as q packet
between Little Rock and some of
the up-rfver towns. She arrived in
Arkansas City just fourteen days
from time of leaving Little Rock
stopping two days at Fort Smith,
and only running during the day
time, after running above Ft. Smith.
This trip is made in the interests
of FIGURING mills at Little Rock,
whose agent has been in Askansas
City for some days buying wheat.
They intend carrying down the riv-
er two thousand bushels of wheat.
We understand that this boat was
sent up as an experiment, and if
successful, to be followed by reg
ular line of boats to be put on the
