We are glad Mrs. Cunning has recovered

We were saddened and grleved by hear

Joyous young life to return home to glad

RELIEF FROM THE FIRST APPLICATION.

When q person has suffered the untold
agonies of rheumatism and neuralgia
twenty-five years, when physicians have
failed, and when a liRiment cures at one
application, the fact ought TO cause think
ing people to pause and consider ifa bot
tie of it ought not to be in Immediate
readiness in every household for the in
stant cure of the aches and pains that af-
fiict mankind. Such was the evidence of
G. NJ. Sanders, of Madison, Ala, and there
are volumes of other testimonials of like
character to certify that Mansfields Magic
Arnica Liaiment' is the best, the par ex-

Another Cud for the "Doubtlng
Thomases" to Illuminate Upon.

The following reply to inquiries ola Mr.
Joiner, Of West Point, by tho merchants
aud business men OF Shubuta, is another
clincbcr TO the oft.repeatcd argument
that Prohibition ruins towns business
prospects. They are now making war on
the saloons of West Point, and Mr. Joiner,
being an honest inquirer after the truth,
wrote 10 Shubuta for information with
the result shown below:
DEAN SIR-In reply TO your inquiry,
would say that the closing of the saloons
has been beneficial in every way-mor-
ally, socislly, cducationally and financial
ly. From Sept. LIST, 1888, to Sept LIST,
1894, our cotton receipts were 2,0oO bales.
From Sept, LIST, 1884, to Feb. goth, 1876,
they have been 1924 None Of us have
lost on account of Prohibition. We have
had Prohibition for ten months, and the
ten thousand dollars which would have
been sunk in the saloons, has been dis
tributed among the merchants for the
Dpcessaries of life. Ii has been much
more pleasant TO wait on our customers.
We are all satisfied with Prohibition.
