so dazzling as to hurt the eyes. The color
had a greeuish blue tint similar TO the
burning of a trolley wire by bad electric
connection.
Many thought that it must have landed
within only few hundred yards of them.
Now, however, it's location is definitely
settled. A man from the southwestern
part OF the State gives this account of an
occurrence that made the people prepare
for the end of time:
One morning recently farmers and fish
ermen along the Little River and the Red
River, below the junction of the two,
noticed large number of fish floating
down and that the water was hot An
investigation showed the fish to be cooked
Alarmed at this, party was finally
formed to go up and investigate the cause.
Touching the river at various points as
they proceeded on horseback, they noticed
that the water was getting hotter and
hotter, and later they could trace the
entire course of the river by the rising
steam. The negroes had all quit the
cotton fields and lumber camps and gath
cred around their preachers wherever one
could be found. On the party pressed,
getting smaller each mile, as some brother
thought his final hours could best be spent
under preachers fervent prayers. and
dropped out to join the negro impromptu
camp-meetings.
Rounding sharp bend they came upon
the white chalk cliffs of the Little River
in the county of the same name, and just
south OF the junction OF the county with
Howard and Sewer. There they beheld
sight so strange that every one
in the party, moved by the same i'm
pulse, fell from his horse prone on the
ground, while the animals quaked with
fear and trembling and huddled together.
The meteor had hit the chalk cliff, liter
ally tearing through it a hole 100 feet wide
from the top to the waters edge. The ex
posed portions of the fissure had been
melted by the intense heat and friction.
There in Little River stood the lost star
let, anchored deep in the bed of the river,
leaving barely room for the water to pass
on the southwest side and projecting
twenty feet above the level of the water.
The exposed portion was still lurid with
the heat of its rapid transit through the
air. and the water was boiling. Naviga-
ton beyond this point will be impossible
until the Little River cuts new channel
to the south.

clad in suit of apparel OF the treasures
and rode in a tax t-rawan, and was become
thousand times more majestic than the
king. Then the king saiuted him, and all
the great men of the empire saluted him,
and itappeared that NJ aaroof was veraclous
and that there was no talsehOod in him.
He entered the city in stately process
sion that would have made the gall-bladder
of the lion to burst and the merchants
came and kissed the ground before him,
and the merchant Alec said to him: Thou
hast done this deed and 1t hath been sue
cessfully accomplished by thee, Q Shevkh
OF the impostors! But thou art deserving,
therefore NAV God (whose name be ex-
alted) increase to thee his bounty! And
Maaroof laughed.
Then he ordered the treasury to be filled
with gold and jewels and stuffs, and select
ing of the best of the loads sent them in to
the queen, to distribute among her female
slaves, and proceeded to pay the mer-
chants to whom he was indebted, giving
double the amount of his Indebtedness to
each; and he ceased not to give and be-
stow and distribute until he had distrib-
uted the 700 loads Of merchandise, after
which he gave of the jewels and treasure
to the soldiers and to the poor and needy
until there remained of the people none
who desired aught And he gave gifts to
his wife OF splendor surprising all the
others, saving. Take and wear these and
welcome to thee. And when the king
would have checked his liberality he said:
What is this small matter: l have abun-
dance. And his veracity had become pub
licly manifest and no one could any longer
belle him.
Extolled be the perfection of the Living,

ton. He went like one intoxicated and
ceased not to proceed until the hour of
noon when he neared a village and saw
plowman near it blowing with a yoke of
bulls. And hunger violently affected him
and he saluted the plowman, who said to
him: Welcome, Q my master and in
vited him to alight for entertainment, say
ing he would go into the village and bring
dinner, and fodder for the horse. So he
alighted and the peasant left him and
Maaroof sat waiting. Then he said within
himself: Verify we have diverted this
poor man from his work, but I will arise
and pillow in his stead until he come to
compensate for my having hindered him.
Accordingly he took the pillow and drove
on the bulls, but the pillow struck against
something and the beasts stopped. And
he looked at the plow and found it to be
caught in ring of gold in the middle of
stone of alabaster, of the size of a neither
milestone. And he labered with it until
he pulled it from its place and disclosed
subterranean place with stairs, and he de-
scended into place like bath, with four
lewans. The first lewan was. full of gold
from floor to roof. The second was full of
emeralds and pearls and corals from
floor to roof. The third lewan was
full of jacinths and balaco-rubies and
of diamonds and precious minerals
and all kinds of jewels. At the
upper end was chest of pure
crystal, and on it little box of gold the
size of lemon, in which when Maaroof
opened it was seal ring on which were
engraved names and talismans; and he
rubbed the seal ring and 10! speaker

peased.
And on the morrow he sat with the king
in the council chamber and distributed
robes of honor among the emeers and
wezeers and lords of the empire, and show
cred gifts upon all who came. And he
continued in this state for the space of
twenty days, and there appeared not his
merchandise, nor naught else, and he SAID

self useful around my place of business.

DR.. JAMES M. .MUNYON-Dear Sir ::
For several years past have been afflicted
with rheumatism in the muscles of the
arms and legs to such an extent that at
times / was unable to enjoy the free use
of my limbs. Happily, the pains were
only occasional, but the dread of their un-
expected coming prompted me to attempt
the eradication OF the disease from my
system. Being a pharmacist, 1 had re-
course to many of the most popular rem
edies prescribed by physicians and recog-
nized as standard among medical men,
but the result was entirely unsatisfactory.
About two weeks ago my attention was
called to Munyon's, and l decided to test
their efficiency. Before I had consumed
one bottle I realized that the lingering
pains had left my arms and scattered them
selves throughout my system, so that they
became barely perceptible. continued
the treatment, and am satisfied that rheu-
matism in future will not be one OF my
ills. The sale of your remedy is also an
evidence of what it is accomplishing.

mand of my customers. Those who have
