This is one Of the most complete and at
tractive histories f,r schools We ever had
the pleasure OF perua ing. Az i 5 titlo states

not only bringing school lessons Within the

Mr.. Weber is young man of more than
ordinary natural and acquired abilities, with
considerable experience as School Teacher

advantages upon every page of his book.

ESA- The recent misunderstanding he
tween the Town Council and the Aliauce
has. no doubt, produced au unfavora bic
! feeling toward our cotton market, and it will
require much caution and some liberality ON
the part Of our buyers and business men 10
overcome it.
AS our correspondent, Kelton Wheel, says,
the unfortunate difficulty ''hns crippled
union to some extent. no matter if they do
come to compromise" and we know.
from personal conversations with farmers,
that such Is the case with many unjustly
Prejudicel individuals in the country, who
are ever really to give the town q black
charges, and pooh, pooh, at them, as coming
from persons without influence; but be this
as il may, Union cannot afford to lose any
trade, and it seems to us that the busin ess
men of the town would exhibit n proper
spirit in the matter by getting together and
adopting some plan, even if it costs n few
dollars TO each, TO counteract any effort set
on foot TO injure the business Of the town.
If or cent advance will bring the cot
ton to this market, it would pay the mer-
chants handsomely to unite in making the
buyers whole, to that amount. This course
proved very effectual in other markets in
years past, and We remember it enticed
many hundred bales Of cotton and many
thousand dollars of trade from this town.

A Compliment 10 Worthy Oficers.

A Compliment 10 Worthy officers.
1t gives us much pleasure to Publish the
following we'll merited compliment from the
Solicitor of this Circuit 10 our efficient Sheriff
and Clerk Of the Count. The value Of the
compliment is enhanced by the fact that il
sens 4sse
giving the people of the County good re-
port of those they have elected to fill official
positions.
Such a compliu ent coming unsolicited
from such conscientious true and faithful
officer as Solicitor Schumpert, is praise TO
be proud Of. If it has not put any fat on
their offices, we think it has put an inch of
fat on those officers ribs, and the brcadest
kind of q smile on their broad faces.
To Hon. j. II. Hudson Presiding Judge:
herewith beg 10 report that l have at
the present tern examined the Offices Of the
Clerk Of Court and Sheriff of this County, as
required of me by law. l can but commend
both the Clerk and Sheriff for the very eff
cieut way in which their duties have been
discharged, as they have, to the letter of the
law, so for as have been able TO ascertain,
fulfilled their duties.
Most respectfully,
o. L. SoHUMPERT, Solicitor.

weeks, | make my Appearance agaiu this
moruinS to say q few words, to let the re I'd.
ers OF the TIaEs know that am in the land

10 the field, feel very anxious about rain.
There is some cotton being carried to mar
ket from Pea Ridge.
MIR. Editor, as there has been and is being
s9 much sad ab,ut the CO ton weipher in
your town, will ask to be allowed 10 say a
few words on that line. 1t is true that
the towa Council has the right under
the charter of Union to elect cotton
weigher, but they should look to the
future and see whether 1t was expedient or
not. The step which the council iook few
days back has crippled Union to some ex-
tent, no matter if they do come to compro-
mise.

Hints to Housekeepers.

A gargle of salt and water used be.
fore retiring at night will strengthen
the throat and keep OFF bronchial at.
tacks.
Biscuits can be warmed to be as good
as when just baked by placing them IN
the oven dry, covered closely with q
tin. 1t is a great improvement over
the old way of wetting them.
If one wishes to cool a hot dish in a
hurry, it will be found that if the dish
be placed in a vessel full of cold, salty
water it will cool far more rapidly than
if it stood in water free from salt.
Delicately colored goods of any
lind should never be washed without
saltwater bath first, but care should
be exercised in reference to materials
which are likely TO shrink when i'm
mersed in water.
Silk must never be ironed, as the
neat takes all the life out of it and
makes it seem stringy and flabby. If,
however, you wish to press out old
bits of silk and Iiobon for fancy work.
use an iron only moderately hot, and
place two thicknesses of paper between
that and the silk.

deals lightly with woman in
perfect health. But all func-
tional arrangements and dis
orders peculiar to women
leave their mark. You needn't t
have them. DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription comes to
your rescue as no other medi-

periodical pains, prolapsus and
other displacements, bearing
down sensations, and all "fe-
male complaints and weak
nesSes, it is a positive remedy.
1t is a powerful, restorative
tonic and nervine, imparting
strength to the whole system

organs and appendages in par
ticular. 1t keeps years from
your face and figure but adds
years to your life. It's guar
anteea to give satisfaction in

The Welcome Lodging-House In
New York, for young women, the cor
ner-stone of which Mrs. Elliott Shep-
ard laid few days ago, is most
needed charity. The home will be
open to all women who are not intoxi-
Gated and can pay Is cents for a nights
lodging. Children under five years of
age will be admitted free of charge
and breakfast and supper furnished
for five cents, dinner for dime. No
effort will be made to convert to re-
ligion the patrons, but decided effort
to improve their condition through
the medium of soap and water, attrac-
tive surroundings, books, music, and
kindness will be made. The main idea
will be to help women to help them
selves, and to that end situations will
be found for them by business bureau
in charge of an officer of the Home,
and through the cooperation of the
trustees and patrons the tide of labor
will be turned from the factory to the
kitchen, where an experiment will be
made in so systematizing the work as
to provide more leisure and less drudg-
cry for the cook, dishwasher and house
wife.
