MORPHINE.
Can Morphine and Other
Drug Habits Be Cured?

1t has been long contended by phys.
clans that there is no cure for the drug
habit. This is true so far as the rank and
file of the medical profession are concern
ed. The reason, therefore, is that they
are ignorant of the full scope and nature
of the disease; but fortunately for the
cause of suffering humanity we have dem
onstrated that the morphine or other
drug habits can be cured and guarantee
an absolute, permanent and painless cure
to those addicted to the use of drugs if
they will take our treatment and follow
our instructions.
Each case submitted to US receives in
dividual attention and treatment from an
experienced nerve specialist. We do not
detan you from business. We give i'm
mediate relief. Appetite for drug is de
stroyed and appetite for food Is restored

To'Run on Full Time.

The Forrest City Spoke Company IS
The style of the Incorporated stock
company which has recently succeeded
j. j. Reedy & Co. manufacturers oil
spokes, bresstyokes, siDgletrees, &c
The company is capitalized at $1,000,
all of which ia paid up. II. NJ. Bios
son. of st. Louis, is the president; IL
G. Hobbs, of Sringfeld, Illinois, is the
yice-president; I. c. kimber, formerly
of St. Louis, now of this city, is the
secretary aud treasurer, and j. j..
Reedy. who retained a one-third inter
est, is the general superintendent of
works.
Heretofore this splendid plant has
been handicapped by lack of proper
and sufficient business and financial
backing. 1t now has abundance of
capital back of it to run on full time
and a business management which will
insure its success.
I.imber Bros. & Hobbs have large
timber interests near Forrest City, and
10 addition TO their own lands, practi-
cally control thousands of acres Of raw
material.
The company is now stocking up its
yards preparatory 10 running the plant
on full time.
They have about twenty five men in
the woods getting out timber. and be-
sides they will buy all suitable stuff
that farmers or others about here may
deliver, and they will pay spot cash for
same.
The plant is being thoroughly over
hauled, and some new machinery is
being installed, so that it will be second
TO none in this country, and if there is
any benefits to he had for this commu-
nifty or any money to be made out of
the enterprise, this new company will
land it.
The proper operation of this factory,
such as may now be expected, will be
of great value to this county, as it
will furnish market for timber not
heretofore accessible, and furnish en-
ployment to large number of indus
trious citizens.
We wish the company unbounded
success, and hope our farmer friends
Will take advantage Of this cash offer
to take all suit able stuff that may be
delivered TO them.

BASE BALI.

Under skies that were capricious In
the extreme, and which threatened at
many times a deluge, the local base
ball team finished series of games
with the far noted stick artists who
bail from Holly Springs. Miss.
The exhibitions as whole were emf
nently satisfactory to player and pub
lie, as evidenced by the continued aud
high degree of interest manifested aud
by the intense enthusiasm that greeted
the feature plays that were frequently
iuterspsrsed.
Mondays game alone cannot be men,
toned, except with regret for the locals;
it was a complete rout TO them and an
unchallenged victory for the visitors,
Their achievements, however, lacked
the merit of being won from worthy
foe, due to the disorganiEed condition
of the locals, bringing into the line up
some new and raw recruits, material
from which ball players are made, but
neither hardened uor prepared for fast
service.
The effective battery work of the
visitors-Stephenson and Anderson
lent life and snap to an otherwise splr-
itless contest, and drew from the crowd
round approval for Stephenson's right

For several years past an individual
of tie genus hobo variety. has been
making St Francis county his head
quarters, wandering from one section
to another with no desire to work or
keep himself clean. Yesterday he saun-
tered into town, and he was sight to
behold With a growth of hair and
whskerS which would put old Santa
Claus to envy. his clothing tattered
and torn, and withai as filthy as dirt
could make him, he attracted the atten.
ton of those good Samaritans, Marshal
Rainbolt and Deputy Swami. who
lowed him to barber shop and thence
to the city bath house, where the hose
Was turned on him. Contributions of
clothing came forward, and soon the
hobo was transformed into passably
good looking man. With three fingers
of booze placed under his belt, Weary
Willie was headed west. His name is
unknown, but he seemed to enjoy the
novel situation Of shave. hair cut, a
bath and clean clothing to the fullest
extent. and smiles covered his beaming
face as he plodded cheertullY toward
the setting sun.
