TALKING PROSPERITY.
That's What Hon. H. L. Rsmmei IL
Doing in the East.

Hon. H. L. Remmel, of Little
Rock, Ark, vice chairman OF the
republican state central committee
who is at the Arlington, talks en-
Enthusiastically of the conditions pre-
vailing in that section.
ARKANSAS, he says, rs entering
on a period of wonderful prosper
ity and is attracting more atten-
ton from eastern capitalists Just
now than any other part oil the
south. Zinc is the magic "0ro
that has started the boom down 10
our country, and the whole state
is nightly aroused over the I'M
mense possibilities that experts
say, beyond a doubt, lie in the vast
bodies of that metal known to exist
in several Of our northwestern
counties.
The best mineralogists OF the
United States have made carelnl
examination of the zinc fields OF
Marion county and pronounce
them far ahead of any of the Mis-
souri, mines in quantity and rich
ness. When the great demand tor
zinc is remembered and its enor-
nous increase increase in value Of
late, it will be seen that there Is
solid reason for the elation OF ouI
mine owners.
aside from this, there is sub
stantial Improvement in many 9th
er lines. The lumber people o
Arkansas are having the bigges
business ever known, and there
one firm that has made clea
profit of $l,UOO,OOO in the pas
twelve months. Railroad building
is going on actively and Little Roc
counts on two new roads in tn
near future. Washington Even

Its Breaking My Heart.

The newspaper never reported a
more pitiful story than the follow
ing: "A wretched mother dropped
dead about four weeks ago at the
feet of the son who had been a bur
den and a sorrow to her. This son
who was thirty years old, instead OF
helping his mother, spent his wages
for whiskey. At last the mother
concluded that committing him as
an habitual druukard might lead to
to his reformation She was called
to the stand to swear to the COM
plant, but the strain was too great
for her and she fell dead with the
words on her lips, It's breaking my
heart-my heart, No orator, liy-
ing or dead, ever delivered tenn
perance lecture equal to this in pa
thos and eloquence, -EX,
The Daily Texarkanian., 1899-06-16

We most heartily endorse the iol-
lowing from the Arkansas Meth
odist; III your son has no desire tor
an education, aud no love OF books
do not trouble yourself about the
best college to send him to. Set
him to ploughing cotton or some
such employment. That is his call
ing. and il he is not taught to make
an honest living by the sweat OF his
brew, the last chance for making a
man of him will be missed.

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion Of the ear There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an n6amcd condition OF the
mucous lining of the Eustaehian Tube.
When this tube gets innamed you have a
rumbng sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it Is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to It's
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which Is nothing but
an in00med condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars, free.
