john E. Geyer & Go.

For many years, Mir. John E. Geyer has been at the head of one of the best grocery and commission houses in the Southwest located at Little Rock. It is almost useless for us to remind the old merchants and farmers of Western Ar kansas of the many good things that have been and can still be said of John E. Geyer & Co.,, but for the informa- ton of the many new corners we will state that no firm in Little Rock is more deserving of patronage. The extensive store rooms are filled with an immense and varied stock of groceries and plan tation supplies that cannot be excelled by any house west of the Mississippi river. Our merchants could not do bet ter than place their orders with John l.. Geyer & Co.,, whose name is the synonym for honesty and correct deal ing. Read their advertisement.

Hendricks N AheIes.

One of the most enterprising firms in Little Rock is that named above. By dint of enterprise, economy and fair dealing, Hendricks & Abeles have es- tablished trade of which many an older house might be proud. While in Little Rock last week, we were shown through the house by the gentlemanly Mr Abeles, and were amazed at the magnitude and excellent quality of the entire stock. Tier after tier of sash greet the eye; hundreds of packages of oils, paints and varpishes can be seen, an endless variety ot wall paper is kept on hand, while the stock of mirrors and picture frames is unsurpassed by any in the Southwest. Read the advertise ment, and if you need anything in their line, send your order to Hendricks & Abeles and they will fill it promptly and guarantee satisfaction in quality and prices.

Tobacco Chewers.

The Batesyille Guard gives expres. sien to the following timely thoughts in reference to tobacco chewing and the filthy habit so many have of expecto- rating on the floor. Tobacco chewers, read what the Guard says: "The church is not public hall; it is the house of tho living God, erected and dedicated to Him. In it you worship Him and often pray for Him to meet with you there. Suppose one of his angels was 10 come in and find the floor smeared with tobacco spittle, would you not feel ashamed? Read how He required the temple at Jerusa- lem to be finished on the roof to pre- vent birds from alighting thereon, and see if you are not desecrating His tenn pie. Do you thus soil the floor of your own house? No, no.'

Ex. Coy. c. c. Washburn, of La Crosse, Wis, by his will left the bulk of his property, valued at $2, 1000, to La Crosse, Minneapo- lis and other cities in the Northwest, but the greater part to two of his daughters, with legacies of about S50,000 to near relatives. His wife, who is insane, was left only enough to pay for her actual wants. It now turns out that under the laws of Minnesota and Wisconsin that wife, whether sane or insane, is en. titled to one-third of her husbands estate at his death, and the widow will receive as her share nearly $l,- 100000.
