A PILLOW OF PINE.

! rest on a pillow OF pine. brought horne
from the simmer mountains;
The balm OF its needles Is soothing. and
grateful feel to the hands.
The tender and thoughtful hands Of tire
friends that gathering remembered

And yet the aroma I, yields takes nc fur
Their than summer inountains.
Takes me down 10 the forest OF pines in
Virginia and North carolina,
Again ! iI1e a horse and sleep In the
woods and by roadways'
Again ana with conpanlors ana inplc-
mcnts NJ warfare;
! hear the drum and The nfe. and the bu-
giles call 10 action
The batteries heich their fire. ana the
siuairons charge like demons,
And from rude made brtastwarka come
showers Of lead Ike hhiistones
While thu flag goc5 up or down rs sue
chss crowns our endcayors.
The wounded lie In tho forest. but IRE is
easlng ifs way there;
while helpless they lie i'll consumed In
the terrible havoc,
Ard men are dying Of thirst in tho Crime
Of TIE conflict piiendlrg
While the night stops only awhile the
curhneg and h,ichlrss Of cannon.
Ana lie on u pine needle bed. under the
bright stars OF heaven.

IT is with pleasure that we call attention of the readers of THE TIMES to the announcement that Mr. W. F. Williams is candidate for reelection to the office of sheriff and collector of St. Francis county, subject to the action of the democratic party. Mr. Williams has, perhaps, as great a personal following as any man in St. Fran cis county, and has thereby added much strength to the democratic ticket in the last two general elec- tions; in both of winch he ran ahead of the ticket. He has made q good sheriff, and as collector has been prompt and efficient in the performance of all duties, making hls settlements in full on the day appointed by law and at the same tune extending every possible ac- commodation to the taxpayers that he could. He is honest and fear. less, two essential characteristics of good sheriff and collector; and if agaln honored with election will, as heretofore, put forth his best energies Tn the maintenance of the peace and dignity of the law and the best interests of the people as whole. He asks con- sideration of his record, and is willing to be judged thereby. As soon as the duties of tax collect ing are oyer and he makes his settlement, Mr. Williams will visit the various portions of the county in the interest of his can didacy and the party.

 Mr. Joe Wadlington'S team of horses ran away last week and threw him out of the wagon. severely bruising him. The Rev Mir Slonigan sof Palestine, preached a very eloquent sermon to a large and attentive crowd at Shiloh church Saturday night.
 Politics is the general topic. Let "em boom |"

 The sweet and loving smiles of one of the dear girls was more than one of our boys could stand.
 Misses Ella and Maggie Taylor, Moilie Wilsam and Emma Humphreys attended Sunday school at Oak Hill on Sunday last.

TIE withdrawal of Hon. N. w |. Norton as a candidate for Asso- ciate Justice of the Supreme Court of Arkansas, while not unexpected b. his intimate friends, is never the less greatly regretted not only in this county, but all over the state wherever he is known. How yer, We have one great satistac- ton in his withdrawal, and that is that he and his cstimable family will remain in this city, where they are loved and esteemed Tn soclal and business clrclos. Judge Nor ton was no doubt led 10 make this announcement from the fact that Tn order to Secnre the nomination 1t would be necessary 10 enter the mi ire of politics, a step he has never taken, and one which he be- lieyes would be disgraccful 10 a man seeking the high and honor able position of Justice. Could he have obtalned the nominatlon with out scramble, he would have been willing to accept the rcspon- abilities of the office. As it is, he IS moro than pleased 10 rema,n at nome and pursue tho even tenor of his way, ably serving his largo clIentage; and the community, by reason ot the fact that he is to re- main among us, is to be congratu- lated.

The remedy has cured stubborn cases of
rheumatism in elderly people and left Thorn
