A Suggestion.

The people generally. and advertisers especially, should not fail to remember that THE ARKANsA@ TRAyELER, while h enjoys national reputation, has lo- cal circulation much larger than that of any paper published in Little Rock. There are few reading families in the city or in any of the neighboring towns who do not receive THE ARKANsAw TRAv- ELER regularly. It is understood that the objectof advertising is to make your name and business known in the com munity from which you wish to receive trade. To secure this result you should advertise in that journal which has the largest circulation in that community. THE ARKANsAw TRAVELLER is that jour nal.

7. L. COUCH,
J. L. COUCH,
Harness Maker, and Dealer in Car
riage Trimmings, Blankets,
Robes, Halters, Etc.

There are number of firms dealing in
the above goods in this section of the State,
and it has come to be an extensive trade in
terest. There are some houses, however,
who from long experience and unusual IA
cilities and advantages, deserve especial
recognition; and in this connection we
take pleasure in referring our readers to the
inducements and advantages offered by J.
L. Couch.
Specialties Fine driving and team har-
nesses, robes, blankets, whips, carriage
trimmings, trunks, saddles, blankets, hal
tiers, etc. Custom work to order. Agent
for James r. Hills Concord harness.
The proprietor brings to his aid in this
direction an experience of many years in
the business, and we are fully convinced
that no similarly engaged house can pro-
duce or offer for sale any better goods, or
at more uniform prices, for he has every
facility at command for offering bargains
in these articles. The store is admirably
adapted for conducting operations to advan-
tage, and is well equipped with modern con-
veniences. All the goods manufactured or
sold by this concern are of the best quality
and made of the best materials. The pro-
prietor is fully prepared to fill all orders

6. II. & !. H. SMITH,
Dentists.

The science of to-day that is shown in the
prosecution of the profession of dentistry
is the result of many years of growth and
development. So rapid have been the dis
coveries, improvements and changes, in
the last twenty years, that the ease and
comfort given to the patients now are in
strong contrast with the fortunes they were
required to suffer even in the simple oper-
alton of having a tooth drawn twenty years
ago. This manner of things has been
brought about in part by the delicacy OF
form and aptness of construction of the
different instruments which they now use,
and also in large part to the skiltul and
scientific attainments of the operation. We
take pleasure in recommending those of our
readers who desire the services of reliable
men in this profession to 6. H. & ]. II.
Smith.
They are gentlemen who have, by years
of experience, obtained a most thorough
and efficient knowledge of the most minute
details of the profession and are safe and
careful men to do any work relating to the
business. They have established reputa-
ton in this town of such a character as to
make personal comment unnecessary, and
bring to the business an unusual degree OF
diScernment, liberality and integrity, and
they are fully entitled to the general esti-
nation of the public.

H. c. MOORE,
Dealer in Carriages, Sleighs, Harness
es, Robes. Whips. Etc.

In giving our readers an intelligent sy
nOpsis of the commercial industries of this
town, our object is to have every department
represented by the best concerns in each
special line of trade. And we think no
one will dispute us when we take, as a reli-
able concern engaged in the sale of articles
mentioned above, that ofwhich II. c. Moore
is the figure-head
Specialties Carriages, sleighs, harnesses,
whips, halters, robes, blankets, etc.
There are but few kinds of business that
afford greater opportunities for deception
than this one. Mercantile morality is in
some respects at a low ebb in these DAYS of
smart dealing, and we are therefore very
careful in our reference to this business to
draw the attention of our readers to none
but houses of good standing. As the result
of careful and impartial inquiry and inves-
tigation, we are satisfied in cheerfully rec
Ommending the proprietor a strictly reli
able and honest man to deal with, and he is
prepared to give his prompt attention to
anything and everything in this line.
To no better concern in this region OF
country could we recommend our readers to
give their patronage, and we can confident
ly assure them that they will find the prices
moderate and reasonable in every depart
ment. Visit the repository, look the prop
erty over, and then decide for yourselves, il
we are not correct in our aggregate calcula
tons.

MILLER & RYAN.
Manufacturers and Repairers of Car
riages and Sleighs, Etc.

If there is one thing above another in
which American manufacturers excel their
European competitors it is the building of
carriages of all descriptions. English
made coaches and carriages are heavy and
clumsy to degree, and though they are
certainly strongly and durably made, vet
the result is anything but pleasing to the
eye, and their great weight entails an en-
tirely unnecessary amount of labor on the
horses. Our American manufacturers are
possessed with most admirable skill in
combining the utmost lightness with the
greatest strength. When ap Englishman
sees one of our light carriages for the first
time he is horror struck, for he imagineS
every moment that the thing will come to
pieces but when once he sees for himself
how strong they are, as well as light, there
is no more enthusiastic admirer of them.
One of the leading establishments in this
line of trade in this section of the State is
that of Miller & Ryan.
Specialties Manufacturers of carriages,
wagons and sleighs, and repairing done
promptly at low rates.
This concern is noted for its excellence
of materials, superiority of workmanship,
and general appearance of work that is
sent out. When customer purchases a
carriage, wagon or sleigh of any kind from
this house, he may be sure it will substan-
tiate all the representations made for it in
every way.
This concern takes a pride in its work,
and makes speciality of fine carriages and
sleighs of various descriptions, for the
tirst-class making of which they have long
been the acknowledged leaders in this local
ity. Its reputation for splendid workman
ship and moderate charges commends it tC
the favorable notice of interested parties
who upon investigation will find that Oul
statements are not exaggerated.

MRS. L. ]. FLEETWOOD,
Millinery, Embroidery, Fancy Goods,
and Dress Making.

To all our lady readers who are seeking
the best qualities of articles pertaining 10
the above lines, it gives US pleasure to call
attention to the fresh and varied stock in
the store Of Mrs. L. j. Fleetwood.
To say that this store is known by all the
wearers Of female headgear from the rock
bound coast of Maine to the golden shores
of California, might possibly be using the
truth with penurOus frugality; so we will
control ourselves by saying that it is well
and favorably known by all classes of pee
pie within a radius of a good number OF
miles around this immediate locality.
Perhaps no line of trade requires for its
successful prosecution so much care in the
selection Of goods to meet the demand Of
certain class of trade, or the exercise of so
much good judgment in the matter of taste
as that of millinery, and as a general rule
people like to give orders where they can
rely on the good taste and experienced
Judgment Of the mlliner. In this respect
the above firm has earned an enviable
reputation, and its experience extends
over a number Of years.
The stock of hats, bonnets, flowers, vel
vets, laces, feathers, ribbons, embroideries,
and in fact everything relating TO the MILL
merry business, is complete and compreheE-
sive.
The attention Of ladies is also called to
the dressmaking department, where the
best of work is turned out, the latest styles
used, and only competent persons en-
