Some Reasons Why.

Business men in small cities and towns often ask themselves this question. "Does it pay to advertise," says an esteemed exchange. We insist that it does pay and here are some of our reasons: First you get your trade from the farmers, and al- though as a class they may not be highly educated, yet they are a thinking people about what concerns them, and they view it in this light: The man who ad- vertises is progressive, therefore he will have what I want. He is enterprising, therefore, buy what 1 have to sell. He wants my trade, therefore he will be cour- teous and polite. He is shrewd, therefore he will not grumble if l look through his stock and conclude not to buy, knowing that l may return later. He is accom- modating, therefore he will do anything consistent toj business principles to oblige me. Every thing considered, it pays us to deal with the man who adver- tises.
 Second: The country people read their home papers. They are busily engaged in their work during the week and are neces- sarily isolated to considerable extent from their neighbors; therefore they read to learn the news. The women who have shopping to do, cannot take a half a day to run over town sampling goods, but must make up their minds before leaving home what they want and what it will cost, suit the article to the price and the price to their means. How often lave we heard the good farm wife ap- proach the husband when trip to town was contemplated and give him a list of things to buy, closing with instructions to go to a certain store, s'because I saw it in this paper where they had it to sell at three cents 9 yard same as we used to pay seven cents for.

Deafness Cannot De Cured

by local applications as they can not reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deaf- ness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have 8 rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube be re- stored to it's normal condition, hearing will be distroyed forev CT; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mu- cous surfaces.
 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.
 Sold by druggists, price 75c.
 Hall's Family Pills are tho best.

Harrison, Ark, Sept. 4.-Bus- mess men of the town are now eewsidering proposition to bore Tor oil within the city limits, made -oy E. $. W.

Important to Baptists.

The place of meeting for the next session of the Carroll Coun- ty Missionary Baptist Associa- tion is changed from Mt. Pisgah church, ten miles south of Green Forest, to the Berryville church. The change is made at the re- quest of Mt. Pisgah church ex- pressed by the church in regular business session, and because of tne failure of crops in the sur rounding country. BerrYville church very kindly and cordially invites the association to meet with her, and so the churches in the association are hereby noti- fled of the change.
 Let everybody remember that the association meets on Wednes- day. Oct. 2, 1901, at Berryville, Ark.

A Very BaShfu1 Man.

A naughty eastern exchange tells of a very bashful young man who called to spend the evening with his girl. As a storm was coming up the girls father asked him to remain over night. Next morning when he was invited to take d seat at the table very reluc- tantly accepted. He was nervous and agitated. He set opposite a mirror and discovered he had for gotten to comb his hair. Then he dropped his fork on the floor and as he stopped to pick it up he upset his coffee. Matters went from bad to worse until finally the young man quit eating and put his hands under the table. The loose end of the table cloth was lying in his lap and when he touched it he turned pale. He thought it was his shirt and in his nervous excitement while dressing he had forgotten to put the garment inside his trousers. That accounted for his smiles and embarrassment. There was no time to loose. He hurriedly stuffed the supposed garment in : side his trousers. Two minutes later when the family arose from the table there was a crash. The dishes lay in broken mass on the floor. The young man pull ed three feet of table cloth out of his pants and fled through the door. He is now in hiding and the girl is now on the lookout for a less bashfnl lover.

The stock holders of the bank are certainly to be congratulated upon such an excellent showing. The earnings for the month would be entirely creditable to any of the older banks of the country.
 It is no surprise, however, that the Bank of Green Forest should start off with a good business, for it is located in a good town and is backed by some of the strong est men financially in the coun- try.
 Then, the business was launch ed upon broad, liberal principles, and Mr. Michell, the cashier, is disposed to keep it moving upon this line. He believes that hus- ting and enterprise are conduc- i've to business and accordingly mixes it in. The Bank of Green Forest has set an example in ad- vertising that is entirely unprece- dented in the history of the banks of this country. MT. Michell is of the opinion that a good way to get business is to reach out after it, and he says he has found prin- ter's ink to be the best method he has ever tried.

No New State House.

From the following dispatch sent out from Little Rock during the past week, it looks, as though there will be no more work done on Arkansas proposed new cap itol. The dispatch says:
 It has come to be commonly accepted that no more work is to be done on the new state house under the present administration. Governor Davis is known to be opposed to the present plans, but he has refused to give out any statements here relative to his policy. The first intimation of the nature of his views comes in the report of his speech at Mag nolia. A correspondent sends the following from that place:
 '"This afternoon Gov. Jeff Davis delivered an address to a large audience of Columbia county citi- zens, giving an account of his stewardship as governor. He first mentioned the failure of the last legislature to enact anti thrust legislation, and placed the re- sponsibility at the door of the state senate. He explained the status of the state house and gave his views concerning the same. He favored remodeling the pres ent foundation of the state house begun so as to erect a building that will conform to the amount appropriated by the last legisla- ture. He discussed the convict situation and present plans of the board of the penitentiary man. agement. :"
 The amount provided by the legislature is S1 100000 but it is believed that the report of the examining architect will show that it will require S20, 100000:

Held for ManS1aughter.

Dr. Fuller of Eureka Springs has been held to answer the charge of manslaughter for the killing of James Kizer and has been released upon 8 5000 bond which he gave without trouble. The preliminary trial is thus reported by the Times Echo:
 The preliminary hearing of Dr. l.. D. Fuller for the killing of James Kizer resulted in Fuller being held for the grand jury on charge of manslaughter. This charge allowed Dr. Fuller to be admitted to bail. His attorneys at once instituted habeas corpus proceedings and got the amount of the bond fixed by the county judge at S1 1000, as the justice of the peace has no power to fix a bond in such cases.
 The doctor yet shows the effects of the beating he received and had his head in bandages during the trial. His daughter has been with him in the court room all the time and seemed much interested in the proceedings.
 The testimony in the case was all in shortly after noon and the entire afternoon has been taken up by the argument of the attor- neys. The testimony bore out the article in this paper at the time of the trouble, and quite a number of new points were brought out that were not known at the time.
 A young lady testified that she had heard Fuller make threats to Kizer one day in Newtown. There was no direct evidence to show that Kizer was approaching Fuller when he was shot, as was stated by witnesses the day following the killing, but the evidence went to show that Kizer was standing still and was being held by the wrist by another party, and that his, Kizer's, attention was drawn away from Fuller by words he was having with another gentleman.
 The states attorneys are mak- ing their case on the fact that Fuller shot Kizer after they had been separated and when there seemed to be no apparent danger of Kizer's beating him any more.
 The case has attracted a great deal of attention and the court room has been crowded during the two days the investigation has been in progress

PUBLIC SCHOOL OPENED.
Everything ill Promising Con- ditiOn for q Successful Term.

Everything ill Promising Con-
 ditiOn for Successful Term.
 The Green Forest Public High School opened last Monday morning with an enrolment of 160 pupils, divided in the depart ments as follows: primary, 50; intermediate, 40; grammar school, 30; high school, 40.
 The primary department occu- pies a room in the Mahan prop erty, the other three departments being conducted in the public school building.
 If the present term of school is not successful one in every par ticular 1t is not going to be the fault of conditions that exist at the opening, for there never was in the history of our school greater unanimity of feeling on our school interests than exists at the present time. There is no sulking on the part of anyone. Prof. Davis is finding no factions 10 contend with, whatever. Each patron is anxious for the con- tinued welfare and progress of the school.
 With good faculty-which we undoubtedly have-the success of the present term of school will certainly be great.
 The school board, acting in harmony with the principal, has established a full ten years course. This work is divided ac- cording to the following plan: The primary department consists, of the first and the second grades, and is conducted by Miss Almeda Markley; the intermediate de- partment third and fourth grades,
 9e charge of Miss Clara Rush; the grammar school department which is composed of the fifth and sixth grades is taught by w. M. Smith; and the high school de- partment, composed of the sev- enth, eighth and ninth grades is under the direct supervision of Prof. Davis. To this course is added one more year advanced work and corresponds in the main to the collegiate department of our largest and most popular normal schools. In the arrange ment of these departments it was designed that the pupil should accomplish the greatest amount of work in the least possible time and at the least expense. The curriculum is complete and it's adjustment to the present prac- ucal conditions of life is an ex- hlbltlon of rare propriety and an absolute proof that the natural developmentof child life has been most carefully and psychologi- cally considered.

REUNION A SUCCESS.
Fourth Annual Meeting of Ex-
 Federa1S and Sons of Veterans.

EoitItH AHiiud1 TheciIHg Oi FIX
 Federa1S and Sons of Veterans.
 The fourth annual gathering of the ex-Federal and Sons of Vet- erans Association of Carroll county, which was held in Green Forest, Thursday, Friday and Saturday of last week, was pro- nounced by many to have been the greatest success of any re- union ever held in Carroll county. One thing sure, the success of the occasion greatly exceeded the expectation of the people of Green Forest, and every member of the association whom we have heard express themselves upon the subject. The long-continued drought seems to have had but little effect upon the attendance or upon the enthusiasm of those upon whom the success of the occasion rested, for everything went off as pleasantly and peace ably as could have been wished for.
 The published program was substantially carried out with many additional features which lent much enjoyment.
 During the three'days, meeting patriotic speeches were made by Hon. J. P. Fancher of Berryville; Hon. z. P. Freeman, Eureka Springs; Hon. J. c. Floyd, Yelle- vile; Judge D. H. Perew, Har- rison; Hon. w. R. Phillips, Green Forest; Prof. H. H. Davis, Green Forest; Prof. T. E.. Phillips, Yocum; Col. Iverson A. Jones, Denver; Prof. 1. A. Clarke, Ber- ryville; Dr. H. L. Routh, Batavia; J. w. Newton, Raum; Capt. l.. E. Harbert, Green Forest and many others.
 The veterans parade Friday was a prominent feature of that days program. On Saturday the local camp of the Woodmen of the World was out in full re- galia. The members formed a procession at the hall and march ed to the ground, headed by the band and wagon loaded with a big saw log, each member being armed with an ax, typical of oper- ative Woodcraft.
 In addition to the excellent music furnished throughout the three days entertainment by the Green Forest Cornet Band, a vio- lin and organ manipulated by James and Rachel Williams add- ed much to the musical feature of the occasion.
 The trains brought many vis- itors from Eureka Springs, Ber- ryville, Harrison and other points. and all in all this reunion may be pronounced a grand success in every particular.
 Before adjournment Saturday afternoon the association of ex- FederalS met in executive session electing the following officers for the coming year. Colonel, J. ". Newport, Eureka Springs; Lieu- tenant Colonel, l.. E. Harbert, Green Forest; Adjutant, H. M. c. White, Eureka Springs; Quarter master, E. J. Black, Berryville; Officer of the Day, A. J. Malone, Green Forest.

The Bank of Green Forest was one month, old last Saturday night, and if the record it has thus far made as a business in- stitution is to be taken as a sam- pie for what is to follow, it will prove an excellent investment for it's promoters.

AMUSEMENT NOTES.

The Chase-Lister Theatre company,
which appears at Harper's theatre to-
morrow evening, promises the the
atre-goers of Rock Island something
new in it's lively farce comedy in four
acts, entitled, THE Man From Ko-
komo." The prices for this engage
ment will be 10, 20 and 80 cents.
1t is seldom that an author artist is
also gifted with the ability to enter
tain upon the lecture platform, but
Ernest Seton-Thompson is as clever
with his voice as with his pen and
pencil. All of his writings and draw
ings descriptive of the personality of
wild animals are enhanced many fold
by his inimitable description of them
from his own lips. Mr.. Seton-Thomp-
son is one of the most entertaining
lecturers now on the platform. He
has way of putting things, without
straining after effects, which captures
his audience at the start and holds it
to the finish. He has wonderful pow
ers of narrative, and as his lectures
are principally composed of stories,
mostly drawn from his own expert
ence, they are attractive for this cause
alone, brt when illustrated, as they
are, with camera and pencil, they are
rare treat. He is coming here to
lecture at Harper's theatre April ),
afternoon and evening.
