Facts Worth Notnr and Rememberine

Faets Woftn Noting and Remembering.
 One of the very best evidences of the
 merit of a medicine is the favor 1t meets
 with at home, and the numerous attempts of other manufacturers to sell their pre-
 parations instead Of the article that the people have tried, and recognized as pos sessing virtues unequaled by any other similar preparation. Never in the his tory of patent medicines has any article met with such success and popularity as has " Browns Iron Remedy" since it's in- troduction to the public. This shows tha. the people sooa find out an article of true merit and sustain it. When a medicine has been tried and found to do the work, people cannot be too cautious afterward in seeing that they obtain the geHxise when purchasing new supplies Browns Iron Remedy" has a blue wrapper with white letters, and the picture of woman on the front of the wrapper. and the firm name "S. Mansfield & Co.," at the bottom of the label or wrapper. Browns Iron Remedy" is the only preparation of Iron that IS constructed upon strictly scientific principles, and is the result of years of patient study, and research into the re- quirements of the human system. It is a well-known fact that the coloring matter of the blood is due to the Hamatin, tor red corpuscles), and that these corpuscies owe their color principally to iron, so that when this important element is deficient in the system its absence is indicated by lack of color in the hands and face, hst- lessness, general prostration, want of en- ergy. depressed feeling, etc. Browns Iron Remedy" is a preparation contain ing iron in form, as near as possible, to that which exists in the blood, and as an evidence that such is the case, we call att tention to the remarkable avidity with which it is taken up and assimilated by the blood, and the rich and glowing color it imparts to those who were weak and pal lid before using it, by enriching and in- creasing the blood, and removing all of its impurities. Browns Iron Remedy !" assists nature in building up the shattered system, and prevents recurrence of dis ease if taken occasionally after health as been restored It has been used with great and unparalleled success in all dis eases arising from impure, or impover- ished blood, dyspepsia, rheum atis.n, fe- male diseases, mental debility, loss of ap. petite, joint swellings, indigestion, nerv- ousness, scrofula. malarial poisons, con- valescence from typhoid and malarial levers, and all impurities of the bleod Ask your druggis or merchant for it, and take only Browns Iron Remedy (which has dee1 blue avrabter wiM zvhiIe ltt- <rs, and is made only by S.

The Great Southwestern Music Hous,

The Great Southwestern Music House.
 Considering the natural advantages of the two places, and the enterprising character of their business men, it is but natural that Memphis, Tenn, and Little Rock, Ark, should be the commercial centers and great supply depots of their own and several adjoining states. Among the business houses of the two cities there is none that stands higher or better de- serves the trade it commands than the Great Southwestern Music House of H. c. Hollenberg. A business career of over thirty years in Memphis and of six years in Little Rock, during which these houses have virtually controlled the music trade of Arkansaw, Tennessee, Mississippi, north Alabama, north Texas and the Indian Territory, places them prominently above all southern competi. tors These houses carry the largest and most complete stock of the best m akes of pianos and organs, sheet music and all goods pertaining to their line, and are prep ared to fill orders without any delay, and at prices less than the purchaser can obtain in the east, freight considered. All goods handled by H. c. Hollenberg are comprised in a neat catalogue which will be mailed free to any address. Par ties contemplating the purchase of a piano, or organ, or musical merchandise of any description, should not tail to ob- tain Hollenberg's prices befor. ordering elsewhere. Address, H. G.

Mark Twain's' Goodness.
Kansas City rimes.l

Rev. J. Hyatt Smith knows more stories about more people than ten average citi- zens. Among them he relates this " When l was living with my brother in Buffalo, Mark Twain occupied a cottage across the street. We didn't see very much of him, but one morning as we were enjoying our cigars on the veranda after breakfast we saw Mark Twain come to his door in his dressing gown and slippers and look over at us. He stood at his door and smoked for a minute as if making up his mind about something and at last opened his gate and came lounging across the street. There was an upoccupied rocking chair on the veranda, and when my brother offered it to him he dropped into 1t with sigh of relief He smoked for a few moments and said:
 Mice morning."
 Yes, very pleasant"
 "Shouldn't wonder if we had rain by and by
 Well. we could stand little"
 " This is a nice house you have here ?"
 "Yes, we rather like it."
 How's your family2"
 "Quite well-and your'sP"
 70, we're all comfortable"
 There was another impressive silence, and finally Mark Twain crossed his legs, blew puff of smoke into the air, and in his lazy drawl remarked: "l suppose you're little surprised to see me over here so early. Fact is, haven't been so neighborly, perhaps, as l ought to be. We must mend that state of things. Rut this morning came over because l tn ought you might be interested in know ing that your roof is on fire. It struck me that it would be good idea if|"
 But a, the mention of fire the whole family dusted up stairs, trailing language all the way up. When we had put the fire out and returned to the veranda . Mark wasn't there.

Of Bull Kun, where the colors of the two armies could not be distinguished from each other. "After the battle," writes General Beauregard, |" it was found that many persons in both armies firmly be. lieved that each side had used as a strat- egem the flags of his opponent, and Gen. eral Joseph Johnston and myself decided to adopt a battle-dag for our forces. l"
 Designs were asked for, and one presented by Colonel James B. Walton, of Louis jana, was chosen. This design was orig inally oblong but General Johnston mod
 i6ed it by making it itsquare, and, so mod ifed, 1t became the battle-dag of the Confederacy. It was in September, 1861, adopted by the Rebel army of the Poto. mac, and shortly aferward, with slish; modification, by the other armies. In 1883 the Confederate States adopted it as the union of its new national ensign.
 This battle-A flag had a rcd field, with two wide blue bars running diagonally from one corner to the other, thus form ing the Greek cross. On these bars were white or gold stars equal in number to the states of the Confederacy. The de- sign was substantially the same as the one prosecuted to the Montgomery con- vention by William Porcher Miles when the stars and bars were chosen. It is lnown as the Southern Gross" and was the only lag in general use by the south ern troops during the war. The Conied- crate congress, in adopting it as the na- tional flag in May, 1883, added the white field, that it might be of use upon the sea. But square as it was, this design was such that 1t could not be reversed as . signal of distress. The white field, on trial, was
