A CASE which will attract attention in
medical circles is reported from Lamar,
Ark. Eliza Ryan, widow sixty years OF
age, who has been totally blind for thirty
years, had tooth pulled from the upper
jaw. The root Of the tooth was nearly an
inch in length. When it was extracted
Mrs. Ryan complained OF intense pain in
her eyes, and later cried out that she could
see, her sight having been restored.

Important To Collectors of Taxes.

The following act Of Assembly which
passed the Legislature at its last session is
one Of Importance to all Collectors of Taxes.
The idea has heretofore prevailed among
Collectors in this county that they had two
years in which to settle their duplicates,
and some of them have believed that they
were not required to pay over cent until
the expiration Of the two years. 1t isvery
likely that the following amendments to
the act of 1885 were passed for the purpose
of correcting that impression. At all
events Collectors will now understand how
long they can hold public money in their
hands
