Deafness Can,r be Cured.

by local application, as they can not reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way Co cure Deafness, and that Is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infiamed con- dition of the mucus lining of the Eus- tachian Tube. When this tube gets in- famed you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t is en- tireiy closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; niDe cases out of ten are caus- ed by catarrh, which is nothing but an infiamed condition of the mucus sur faces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by Ca tarrh) that we can not cure by taking Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circu- lars, free.

 Weather is fine for farming and our farmers are making use of it to good advantage.
 Oat sowing is being finished and prep arations are being made for corn plant ing.
 The boys could be heard on every side telling the horse ''gee" and "haw" last week and will be continued as long as this fine weather lasts.
 The frogs seem to be having a happy jubilee.
 MT. John Smith says that he has rent cd also, over forty acres of Capt. Scott's upland to be sown in oats. This is q step in the right direction. We want to raise all we use and some to sell in order to be very successful. Let's raise our own meat, wheat and tobacco and save buying 1t. We can.
 Prof. Fry opens another term of school this morning. All young men in the county and adjoining counties, who want to go to school could do well to como here. Health is good, board in good families cheap, society good and church aud Sunday school every Sun day.
 K. Nj. Bennett and Harrison Wake field, of London and John and James Linzy of Sand Springs will attend school here this spring. Prof. Fry is an able ana proficient instructor, and we are glad to have his labors.
 We have always heard that miliers were contrary men, but could never understand how far the saying was tru- ly applicable. We have lately learned by observation that it was true to men named Miller. To illustrate, when the courthouse was here, James Miller of Russsllville, or William Miller, of Scottsville, never came here to court, but since the courthouse has been nov cd to Russsllville one or both of these gentlemen comes here almost every Sunday to court. Boys, you must re- member the Sunday proceedings are not valid according to the laws of Ark ansas.

--Last Thursday afternoon about 3
 o'clock the barn and stables belonging
 to Dr. K. M. Drummond were found to be on fire and despite the heroic efforts of the citizens responding to the alarm the buildings and contents were tofall y destroyed. The loss falls heavily upon | the Doctor and Is rendered the more de- plorable from the fact that lie has been
 confined to his room for several weeks with sickness and some time must ne-
 cessarily elapse before he can get about to replace the loss. He has the sympa. thy of every one in his misfortune. The origin of the fire Is mystery. It
 was undoubtedly accidental, as there ia DO suspicion of incendiarism.
 We are not so courageous as to de- fy competition, but we rest assured es we will be found to bs the cheapest
 house in town. Give us trial. Love & Roys. Hon. W. A. Nolen. the brilliant young member of the legislature from Yell county, died at Little Rock last Friday of Meningitis, after three days illness. His remains were brought up Saturday, accompanied by Senators Clements and Miller and Representa- tives Coffman, Chimney and Sibley, and carried to Dardanelle where they were inferred Sunday afternoon in the pres
 snce of large assemblage. The de- ceased possessed many noble qualities and enjoyed in marked degree tso confidence and esteem of his people. As legislator he was conservative,
 watchful, careful and an untiring
 worker in behalf of his constituents
 and the interests of the State. Peace to his ashes.
 A handsome line of new spring pants in all the latest styles has just

 Chairman Harkey of the County Central Committee issues his call to- day for county and township conyen- tions to nominate supreme judges for
 the State. The township conventions
 are to be held Saturday, March l6th,
 and the county convention Monday
 March 18th, in accordance with the rec
 ommendation of the State Central Com
 mittee. It is hoped that every town-
 ship will hold convention and take
 such steps as will insure fall turn
 out on April 2d, the day of the election.
 The time Is short and prompt and
 decisive action should be taken in ev-
 cry precinct. Let not the idea that
 the election is not of much importance
 anyway get possession of you and cause
 you to stay away from the polls. It is
 a matter of vital importance to elect
 the democratic nominees and this can
 not be done if democratic voters remain away from the polls. We feel assured
 that the party in Pope will come up to the full measure of duty and send up
 the accustomed majority for the demo- cratic nominees.
