N6fVOUS ETOSLf8IlOQs
Thousands of cases might be quoted in
which Peruna has been used to rescue
people from the perdition of deranged
nerves. and put them on the good. solid
foundation of health. The County Audi
tor of Erie County. New York. Hon John
w. NeH. in a recent letter written at
Buffalo. New York, stated: 81 was per-
suaded by friend to try bottle of your
great nerve tonic. Peruna, and the results
were so gratifying that I am more than
pleased to recommend it"
A Spring Tonic.
Almost everybody needs a tonic in the
spring. Something to brace the nerves,
invigorate the brain and cleanse the blood
That Peruna will do this is beyond all
question. Everyone who has tried it has
had the same experience as Mrs. D. w.
Timberlake. of Lynchburg. Va. who in a
recent letter, made use of the following
words: II always take dose of Peruna
after business hours, as it is great thing
for the nerves. There is no better spring
tonic, and have used about all of them"
Catarrh in Spring.
The spring is the best time to treat ca
tarrh. Nature renews herself every spring.
The system is rejuvenated by spring
weather. This renders medicines more
effective. A short course of Peruna, assist
ed by the balmy air of spring. will cure old.
stubborn cases of catarrh that have resisted
treatment for years. Everybody should
have copy of DR.. Hartman latest book
on catarrh. Address the Peruna Medicine

End of Loves Dream

They were not a romantic looking
couple, both approaching the mark
which the world unfeelingly calls
middle age. Both were slightly IN
clired to embonpoint.
She was pleasant and comfortable
in appearance and gave the impress
sion of having arrived at that stage
of existence when she no longer ex-
pected things to happen. Why, in
deed, should she? They never had
happened, to any extent; she had
grown up, had gone to school, pla-
cidIy fallen in love and married-and
there a respectable woman's expert
ence should stop.
He was also inclined to placidity-
outwardly, at least-but with differ
ence. Things had happened within
his memory Indeed, he was even
then going quietly over them and
retrospection which does not include
the partner of a mans joys and sor-
rows is not only a dangerous luxury.
but is a sure sign of boredom.
They were travelling between Little
Rock and Fort Smith. She was think
ing busily of the number of pounds of
sugar necessary to given number or
baskets of cherries awaiting her
housewifely care, and newell, his
mind was concerned with cherries,
too but they were cherries in the
blossom, the snowy boughs of the
trees that had shaded a little village
lane.
Underneath the boughs stood a
girl and a boy-how well he remem-
bers the face of the girl, the pink of
her cheeks, the blue of her eyes, the
brown of her hair-he could feel yet
the sting of that braid of hair as she
switched it roughly in his face
when he tried to steal a kiss.
He stole side look at his wife's
plain, wholesome features and sighed.
He even wondered why his dream of
the tree lane had never come true
why lie had-just then the train
slowed up at a little side station and
he became aware of an unusual bus
tie on the platform. His wife said,
with some excitement in her voice:
John, l do believe a theatrical
troupe is getting on here
John dimly remembered that Flora
had always called him Jack as he
answered lazily:
well, my dear, what of it? There
is plenty of room, isn't there? / don't
see any immediate need for my being
Interested" and lapsed into the
region of past delights again-''what
a mischief Flora has been''-he was
rudely jolted back to the present
again by a severe pinch from Mrs.
John.
For goodness sake, John, did you
ever see such get up?"
Eh-what did you say, Margaret?
Get up where?" and following the
direction Of her eyes, he looked down
the aisle.
Ye gods, was he dreaming? 1t was
Flora, Flora in the flesh, in fact more
SO than when they had last met, not
quite the Flora of the cherry tree,
but Enthusiastically his early sweet
heart-the star of the transforming
troupe.
She came up the aisle talking loud
ly to a detected looking individual
whom she addressed as Tommy"
Her dress was brown, and the feather
in her hat-a hat too large for travel
ing-was green as a Brazilian birds
wing.
The pink was in her cheeks as in
the days of the cherry trees, but it
had a suggestion of permanency, I'M
like the fitting roses of fifteen years

REFLECTIONS OE AN OLD MAID.

When a man does any work
around the house it's more trou-
BILE to cleanup after him than to
do the worksyourself.
I've seen young women spend
three months time and hundreds
of dollars Of their fathers money
in getting a trousseau for the
purpose Of marrying a thirty cent
young man.
Some young fellows that are
trying to raise mustaches ought
to write to a beauty doctor in
stead and find out how to remove
superfluous hairs from the upper
lip.
I'd just as lief promise to obey
a man as to promise to love and
honor him. It's as easy to do
one as the other, and sometimes
a great deal easier.
Many a widow marries a Sec
ond husband in order to gel even
with the sex.
Marrying in haste is no worse
than any other kind Of marrying
Brigham Young was merely a
man who had the opportunity

THE TRUTH.

This from an exchange: "Tell
me not in rotten rag-time things
are always what they seem, for
there's little modern butter that
is really made from cream.
Breakfast foods are built Of saw
dust left in hunks or chopped up
fine, and a man oft orders beef
steak and on horse meat is forced
to dine. Lives of great men all
remind us if we want to be
thought wise, we must make some
brand of pickles, then pitch in
and advertise. Let us then be
up and doing, there are many to
be done, and if we don't do the
others, they with us will have
their fun"

ONE FROM DIXON.

In his address to the voters Of
Izard county Hon. A. c. Dixon,
whom it is remembered has come
out squarely against Governor
Davis, says in part:
The governor poses as a champ
ion of the peoples cause-claims
to be a friend to the common peo-
pie, "red necks," chill billies,
zone gallus fellows" he calls
them, but when in violation of
law, he accepted free transporta-
tion for himself and friends"
over the Choctaw railroad from
Little Rock to the Indian Terri
tory, the evidence shows that his
''friends" consisted of saloon men
and people of Little Rock instead
of, red necks, chill billies," and
cone gallus fellows" The gov
ernor becomes wonderfully
friendly and social with this lat
ter-named class during or just
before elections, but ignores them
at other times. This, however
he explained to a gentleman of
Melbourne some years ago, when
just after meeting and talking a
few minutes to Baptist minister
in which conversation the gov
error took occasion to refer to
him being a member of the Bap-
tist church and having attended
associations upon different oc-
casions-after passing on he re-
marked to this gentleman in an
irreverent manner that "when a
man becomes a candidate he has
to practice a id sight of de-
ception.

When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is SO perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.

tions, at Which Time

stable Will be

trail Committee, the committee

proxy for James A. Laman.
Sullivan township, Walter

In the matter of the represent
alton from Highland township
some question arose as to the
appointment by chairman Coger
of H. E. Dark as member of
the committee from said town
ship, the regular committeeman,
Lloyd Cox, having removed from
the state. Mr.. D. l.. King pre-
sented a request from nine citi-
zens of Highland township ask
ing the committee to appoint S.
T. Sheriff. committeeman from
said township. The committee
after much discussion sustained
the appointment of H. E. Dark
as committeeman from Highland
township, and G. j. Wilson, who
held his proxy, was seated as the
member from said town ship.
Mr.. Wilson of Piney Fork in
troduced resolution that a dem
ocratic primary election be held
in Sharp county on the last Sat-
urday in March at which time all
state and district officers shall be
voted upon.
Mr.. Welsh Of Lave Creek Of
fered the following substitute:
Whereas, the last Democratic
state convention, which convened
in the city Of Little Rock in June,
1902, fixed the last Saturday in
March, 1904 as the time for the
holding of primary elections in
the various townships throughout
the state for the purpose of nomi-
mating democratic candidates for
the several state offices.
Therefore, Be it Resolved by
this, the democratic central COM
mittee of Sharp county, that a
general primary election be called
in Sharp county, to be held in
the several townships of Sharp
county on said last Saturday in
March, 1904, at which election
there shall be submitted to the
democratic voters the question of
voting for the nomination of all
state, district and county officers,
and the person receiving the

is canQlQaCe.
After a lengthy discussion in
which nearly all of the members
of the committee took part the
substitute resolution offered by
Mr.. Welsh was adopted by vote
OF 8 to 7, and the chairman and
secretary of the committee were
ordered to call primary in con-
formity with said resolution.
On motion the several township
committeeman were ordered to
recommend to the chairman be-
fore the first of March three dem
ocrats who are to be appointed
judges.of election.
The following resolution was
adopted by unanimous vote:
Resolved by the democratic
central committee of Sharp coun-
ty that the candidates for state
senator from the district COM
posed of Lawrence, Randolph and
Sharp counties be requested to
make canvas in Sharp county
and address the people at such
points and on such dates as they
may see fit.
The following resolution was
also adopted:
Resolved, by the democratic
central committee of Sharp coun-
ty, duly assembled, that at the
next democratic county conven-
ton, on motion of any member
of the convention, the poll books
Of any township may be exam
ined by said convention, and if it
be found that known republicans
have participated in the primary
election in any township this fact
alone, without cavil, throws the
vote of said township out of the
convention.
On motion the county conven-
ton is called to meet in Evening
Shade the first Saturday follow
ing the primary.
A motion prevailed that each
township in the county at 2
O'Clock on the day of the primary
hold meeting and select dele
gates to3 the county convention
and also a member of the central
committee.
On motion it was ordered that
each township have the same
representation in the next county
convention as in the last con-
vention, which is as follows:
Big Creek township, 3 dele
gates; Big Rock 2; Cave 2; Day.
idson 2; Hardy 3; Highland 1;
Jackson 3; Johnson 1; Lave
Creek 1; Lebanon 2; Morgan 2;
Upper North 1; Lower North 1;
Piney Fork 4; Richwoods 3;
Scott 4; Strawberry 2; Sullivan
3; North Union 1; South Union
1; Washington 1.
The committee adopted a reso-
luton that the candidates be as
sessed the same amounts as at
the primary in 1902, for the pur-
pose of defraying the expenses
of providing poll books and bal
lots and other expenses of the
primary, which is as follows:
Governor and congressman So.
All candidates for state, county
and district offices not above
mentioned So. All candidates for
township offices who wish their
names printed upon the ballots
so cents.
The chairman and secretary of
the central committee were or
dered to provide tickets, poll
books, etc. for the primary.
The business of the committee
being finished a motion to adjourn
carried.
