 Tine very heavy rains that fell last week did much damage. and espcc- tally where the ground had been fresh plowed, though there was not much blowing done in this section. It seems that all Of the farmers are badly behind this spring and if we don't get some favorable weather soon, will get to the place where we can not catch up at all with our farm work, And to start behind will keep a man behind all the year.

w ell and Happy.

l take pleasure in submitting the following statement of facts that you may know the great benefit that has resulted from the use of your Specific in the case of my little daughter, now ten years of age. The child, when two years of age, had q severe attack of scarlet fever, which left her with a shattered constitution. Among other evidences of impaired nutrition was what the doctors called softening of the bones. In her fifth year she happened to a slight acci- dent which resulted in the GiSlocation of the hip joint, and, from the irrita- ton thus set up, terrible abscesses of the hip ensued' The abscesses, de spite the best medical treatment that could be obtained, remained for three wears, discharging continuous ly. At this time, through the infu- ence of friends, put her on your S. $. <. When this treatment was com menccd, the abscesses were very large, having six perforations, pus discharging through them all. Dur ing this treatment several splcule of bone came out, and by the time she had finished her fifth the abscesses had entirely healed, her appetite and and general health had been re- stored; in short, she was we'll and happy, and so continues.

Remarkable Rescue.

Mrs. Michael Curtain, PlainfcId, Ill.,. makes the statement that she caught cold, which settled on her lungs; she was treated for month by her family physician, but grew worse. He told her that she was q hopeless victim of consumption, and that no medicine could cure her. Her druggist suggested Dr. Kings New Discovery for Consumption; she bought q bottle, and to her delight found herself benefited from first dose. She continued it's use and after taking ten bottles found herself sound and well-now does her own homework and is as well as she ever was.

RAGING FLOODS.
The Mississippi and Tributary Rivers Higher than Ever Known--Levees Broken,
 Bridges Washed
 Away, Etc.

The recent heavy rains has caused an unprecedent rise in the Mississ- ippi river, and a raging flood the past week has been the result. At many places the Father of Waters" has been reported higher than in the great flood of 1882, when the federal government extended assistance to the sufferers.
 New Orleans has been flooded and several breaks Tn the levee above the city causes great consternation lest much of the business portion be damaged seriously. Generally speaking the leyees are in much bet ter condition than in 1882, and it is thought the flooded district will not be SO large, nor the damage so great now as then.
 Tn Arkansas, the White and Black rlNerS rose hlghef than oIners anu did more damage. A good portion of Newport was inundated from six inches to three feet, greatly damag- ing property. A large number of stock perished, but no loss of human life is reported.
 Railroads suffered great loss, the washing out of tracks, trestles and bridges, stopping transportation of all kinds for seyeraldays. The Iron Mountain did not get q train through from St. Louis to TeXarkana from Tuesday until Saturday, on account of Wash-outs.

According to the dispatches, Sen &,oc Jones voted against the Blair bill, but felt called on to rise and explain, rather apologetically, that he voted against It because his Leg islature so instructed him. - Arka- delphia Herald.
 We regret Senator Jones did any such thing, lIalf-hearted service is never very satisfactory. He knew his constituency almost solidly op- posed the Blair bill, and it seems to us that he should, therefore, have not only voted heartily against, it but voiced the sentiment of his people, or else stood up squarely like man and voted for it. if he 50 desired, rather than apologize for going against his own views.
