CONSIDERABLE commotlon was created in postal circles last week by the appointment of R. A. Edgerton to be post master at Little Rock vice R. c. Newton removed. It has been given out all along by leading republicans, and confirmed by MT. Edgerton himself, that Mir. Newton would not be disturbed but allowed to serve until the close of his term, next December. The hasty ap. pointment was therefore as much of a surprise to the incoming as to the outgoing official. Powell the Dicta- tor, is still on top and maintains with steady hand his grip on the administration.

JUDGE CUNNINGHAM, in his letter of resignation, publicly announces that he left the State on account of ill.health and not because of fear of personal violence from any cause or quarter whatever. Will the repub lican press which gave such wide spread publicity to the malicious can ard give equal space to his sweeping denial? Of course not. That would be show of fairness toward Arkan. sas which could not be expected from such source.

TIE telegraph announces that President Harrison on Monday ap pointed Americus NJ. Medley to be Receiver of Public Moneys at Little Rock, says the Gazette. Medley is the man who was killed al Forrest City last May on the occasion of trouble growing out of the school election. The only explanation for his appointment IS that no other can didate has been recommended for the position since his death and that his name had not been erased from the slate containing the names of Republicans selected for Federal positions in Arkansas by Clayton's committee of eleven.

For Your Stomach's Sake.

''Take a little wine for your stom. ach's sake," is a celebrated piece of ad- vice. "Take little Fortuna for your stomach's sake," is a saying that bids fair to become equally famous. The stomach Is at once a most delicate and a most abused organ and. between its dslicacy and it's abuse, it is no wonder that it is constantly giving its owner trouble. There is no medicine that will help the stomach so promptly and so effectively as Pe-ru-na. Its action is very simple and it leaves no bad effects whatever. Especially in summer time is it valuable remedy to have on hand. For hot weather easily affects the stom- aeh, and any little imprudence in eat ing or disorder of the system deranges 1t. Then it is that Pe-ru-na will show
 itself to be just what it is claimed to be --a general Tonic and a corrector of Stomach Troubles. Try It. For sale by aug J. w. WELLS, Druggist.

l. MIR. THos. C.,LEE, proprietor of the Lee Hotel, Philadelphia, Ark, says that Swlft's Specific has so strengthened his wife for her labors as hostess that he can recommend and emphasize the assertion that as a tonic for ladies and children s. s. S.. has no equal.
 MR. B. F. WHEATLEr is a promin- ent merchant of Ruston, La. He says that he has sold Swift's Specific to many persons, and knows of some wonderful cases of blood diseases, and has never heard of failure to cure. Several cases of contagious blood poison were cured after all the doctors and all other remedies had failed.
 AM of the opinion s. s. s. should stand at the head of the list of blood remedies. I arrived at this conclu- sion from the testimony of scores of persons who have told me of the good results from it's use. I have been selling s. $. s. for years, and it has won large sale.

 MERCURY and potash mixtures dry up the secretions of the body, cause mercurlal rheumatism and dyspepsia and finally run the system down to such a condition that other diseases are induced.
