The White River Country in Mis-
souri, and Arkansas.

1.-The future playground of the
Southwest is what the White River
country has been called. Very earn
est, and exhilarating play, much of
this sport is to those who are jaded
by familiar scenes of business life.
Nature is all alive in this wonder
full region-the rushing streams, wood
land sounds of breezes in the forest,
the whirr of wings where wild fowl
flock TO the waters, the splash of
gamey fish tempting the angler, the
very colors of mountain and river,
showing nothing of dead, arid waste
of sand and stone.
"Semi- ALPINE" says an expert
enced traveller of the country, dotted
with growing towns nestled in the
valleys of the James and White Riv-
ers i'm southern Missouri and northern
through the forests or fioated down
the river from Galena to Branson,
and Cotter, will be sincere in calling
the Ozarks mountains" yet there is
no danger to life or limb in such a
pilgrimage. The ozone-laden air from
oak, pine, cypress and cedar, the alb
sence of mosquitoes in land of cold,
springfield streams, cool nights and
temperate days, make it a delight to
live and move in this favored cline.
There is always something to do,
whether of sport or of discovery, in
the way of minerals on land or pearls
in the stream. The casual openinf of
a mussel shell on the lower White
River may bring to light a valuable
gem. The children use to collect
these pearls for playthings till their
value became known.
Few regions have charms of a utili-
tartan character as well as unrivaled
nI f.x IL Il.
conditions. One going to the White
River Country to make money, finds
health and pleasure as well as wealth.
The worn-out unfortunate who takes
his small savings and here seeks to
prolong his days is benefited in mind
and body, and besides finds with new
life, means of securing a competence
and enjoyable surroundings; the
pleasure-seeker, too, often tagged
out in the very pursuit of diversion,
sees in this enchanted land serious
possibilities for improving his pecuni-
airy welfare, and his whole system re-
ceives new invigoration and tone.
"A fairy tale" you say? No; it
is that truth which is stranger than
fiction, truth which shows one who
tries to tell it the poverty of all pow
ers of description. When the spell of
the beautiful White River scenery is
on the beholder he is silent. There
is such thing as the pathos of the
perfect.
In the minds eye there passes in
review the succeeding inhabitants of
these valleys, and many generations
have left their traces-the mound
builder, the early discoveries from
Europe and the Indians. How many
songs and legends have been chanted
n
nature wonders spoke with mystic
force!
1t is not chimerical to believe that
The whole valley, now newly opened
up to travel between Carthge, Mo-,
and Newport, Ark, will in time be- |
come a succession of charming resi- |
lent and resort communities, with |
great mineral and agricultural pros
,erity. 9-29-3t.

After long illness, Hon. l.. ID.
Hollingsworth died at his home
near Beeks, in this county, Wednes-
day evening, at s O'Clock. No one
could count his friends in larger
numbers than this good man, and
few could sum up life of more good
deeds As a minister of the Meth
odist church his influence went out
to every corner of the county. Firm
and uncomprising in his attacks on
evil, he did much to purify the So
cial and political life in the field of
his labors. As a citizen, he filled
the measure of the term and will
live in the memory of all as cri-
terion worthy of emulation. In the
private walks of life, he was what
his family, his friends and his ac-
quaintances would have him-af-
fectionate, true, self-sacrificing and
honest. Than this, no man could
wish greater need of praise, and
none measure up more worthy.
At the time of his death Mr.. Hol-
lingSworth was representative this
county in the State legislature, and
during the last session served on
some Of the most important COM
mittecs of the lower house. His po-
litical career-having served in the
legislature n term pre-dating the
present one-was marked with that
manliness and integrity which char
acterized his private life.
In chronicling the death of our
friend, all will agree III the just
commentary that Monroe county
has lost one of its best citizens,

FOR OLD PEOPLE.
The Phoenix Drug Co. have a Guar.
anteed Strength Creator.

Mr.. III. FL. Scrape of the above firm
of well known druggists, says "hun-
dreds of old people right here in Alb
deem need just such a strength-maker
and y-builder as our delicious cod
liver oil preparation, Vinol, and we
simply cannot understand why they
will continue to drag out a half-dead
and half-alive existence, when we
guarantee Vinol will strengthen and
invigorate every organ in the body,
stop the natural decline and make
them well, strong and active.
This is because Vinol contains in a
highly concentrated form all of the
strength-creating and bodybuilding
elements Of cod liver oil, actually
taken fIom fresh Gods livers, but
without a drop of the system-clogging
oil to upset the stomach and retard
its work.
''Vinol creates renewed vitality in
the most natural manner, making
rich, red blood, and building up and
strengthening every organ in the body
to do its work as nature intended
Many old people have written that
they would not take $1,000 for the good
VinOl has done them.
I'm the strongest manner we en-
dorse and guarantee Vinol to increase
the appetite, give strength and re-
newed vitality to the aged, build up
the rundown, tired and debilitated,
make the weak strong, or return to
the purchaser every dollar paid for
It." PHOENIX DRUG co.

The beautiful, healthful and admir-
ably located city of Aberdeen, which
has never known an epidemic of any
description, is anxious in her pro-
gressive aspirations TO correspond
with parties seeking locations for fac
tories and other industries that may
add diversity to her commercial, ag-
ricultural and financial pursuits.
We have 4 population, including
suburbs, of about 6,0OO; three great
railroad systematic Frisco, Illinois
Central and Mobile & Ohio part of
the Southern-and flowing by us the
Tombigbee river. Three banks of am
pie capital and abundant resources
meet every financial demand; splen-
did public schools and buildings;
churches of almost all denominations,
Protestants and Catholic; factories
for the production of clothing, lum-
Der, buttons, ice, cotton seed oil, sand
lime brick, in addition to machine
shop and foundry, toll gins and nu-
merous minor industries. AS regards
water, we have the illimitable river
supply; about fifty delicious outflow
ing artesian wells; and the best sys-
tenn of water works in the State is
now being installed under municipal
ownership, with splendid sewer sys-
TEN. The region tribntory to us is
rich in timber, particularly hardwoods.
Our prospects are bright for new
railroad connections to supplement-
the present fine freight facilities and
give control of new territory. The
present freight to this city of steam
coal from the Alabama mines is soc.
a ton, or 81. 40 laid down, and cannot
be excelled. The liberal State ex-
emption, as to factories, is supple
mented by City exemption, and no
place, anywhere, can offer better or
cheaper factory sites, with easy rail
road connections.
We have an active Business League
that invites you to visit us, and will
take pleasure in demonstrating our
claims and sustaining our assertions.
ANY communications addressed to
John X. Young, Secretary, or II. III.
Scrape, President, will meet with
prompt response.

A JudiciouS Inquiry.

A well known travelling man who
visits the drug trade says he has often
heard druggists inquire of customers
who asked for a cough medicine,
whether it was wanted for a child or
an adult, and il for a child they al
most invariably recommend Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. The reason
for this Is that they know there is no
danger from it and that it always
cures. There is not the least danger
in giving it, and for coughs, colds and
Group it il unsurpassed. For sale by
al dealers in medicines.
