was the reply.
| went and set down in the wait
ing room, which was crowded with
men and women, and suddenly a ne
gro woman from Harrison came in
the door like she was scared, and
says:
"GorramIghty. you is de only one

A Trip Into Indian Territory and Texas.

Starting from Harrison on Nov.
10th, last, l spent the evening very
pleasantly with Bros. O'Bryant and
Voyles as far as Green Forest and
Seligman, when Brother Voyles and
Oscar Hudgins parted with me, they
going south, and went to Monett
where Ile%4axer some three-hours,
for our trasn going west
Whl~Was waiting, my attention
was called to a conversation going
on neAe the waiting room door. A
gentleman from Bentonville was Civ
ing a glowing account of Jeff Davis
as a spell-binder in Arkansas, espec-
tally in Benton county
He said that when he metNudge
Wood at Bentonville, after the peak-
ing was over, they all started for
the hotel when Jeff suddenly disap-
peared, and was seen across the
street talking to a wood hauler thus:
How far out do you live?"
-Four miles, sir"
Il am Jeff Doyis, candidate for
governor. Could you keep me to-
nisht?A can't rest, nor eat such
stuff as they have at a hotel. Iwant
to stay with my own sort"
SO he rode out four miles on the
running gear Of the wagon, and back
on a load of pole wood the next
morning.
A gentleman heard considerable
uproar at the wood hauleg's house
that night, and went Cver to see
what was up. When he got in sight
Jeff was talking to a crowd, and ev-
cry few minutes their hats would go
80 feet in the air, with almost hide
Gus yells for Jeff Davis, one old
man asked about Mrs. Davis health.
Jeff said the sweet little thing had
laid herself up when he left home
making up her soap, 'She worked
five weeks at it. She wouldn't pat
rOnize t1Efrusts She made her own
soap like her mother used to make. /"
The fellow said refined gentleman
stood no-chance to get office in Ben
ton county. He had tried it three
times, and he couldn't get there. He
SAID all the preachers made affidavit
to something Jeff said in his speech,
that looked ike it would ruin any
man In the world, but it just made
! Jeff more votes He said the town
ship BentOnville was in went two to
one for Judge Wood, but he didn't
black the board in the hill townships
While Judge Floyd was canvass
ing the hills of Benton county short
| ly after Jeff had been there, he came
across crowd of wOOd-choppers
and rode up to them, saying in his
usual polite style
How are you gentlemen. l am a
candidate for Congress, and l want
all your votes at the coming prima-
ries."
The answer was unanimous: ooh,
we are going to vote for Jeff Davis. y
Floyd said: That's all right
You can vote for me and Jefftoo. He
is running for one office and me fo1
another, and you voting for Jeff need
not hinder you from voting for me

HAIRBRusH HINTS.
now TO select One That VIII Give
Good Service.

Good Service.
The first essential Of a good hair
brush is that the bristles should really
be bristies. not limitations, and that
they should be Of a good kind. says
Pearson's Weekly. Russian bristles
are the best; they are obtained from
the back Of the wild boar.
Russian bristles are very stiff, ta-
pering in shape, about seven inches in
length and either black or white.
These are the longest and stiffest of
all. Only the butt end is used for hair
brushes, and the other end. known as
the dag" is employed for making
painting and decorating brushes.
The nag tapers very thin and ends in
several sprouts. so that It makes
very soft and flexible brush. The butt
end Of the Russian bristle may be rec
ognized by its thickness, for no other
bristle has so large a diameter.
The next best variety Is the Chinese
and is sent from Tientsin. 1t is
black bristle, about five and a half
inches in length and less stiff than the
Russian. II is not so durable as this
latter, but in other respects it is not
far behind.
German bristles vary in length and
quality. They are black, white and
brown. and the length ranges from six
inches 70 a mere stump of an inch or
So The white are regarded as the
best Of all these German varieties
and consequently fetch the highest
price.
American bristles are short. ranging
from two and a half to three and a
half inches. They are soft and fiexi-
BILE and for that reason are not so well
adapted for the manufacture of hair
brushes. However they are cheap
and are therefore largely used to mix
with the sitter kinds. This, by the
way, is one Of the points TO be noted
when buying see If all the bristles
have the same stiffness.
Yet another variety is that obtained
from the sea COW. These bristles are
hard and durable, and they are black
In color.
Imitation bristles in the shape of
fibers are often used To detect the
true bristle from the imitation and al
so 10 ascertain the quality Of the real
article. run your finger down the cen
ter of the brush. II the bristles spring
back quickly into the straight, up
right position they are genuine, but IL
they return slowly to the original posi-
tion it will be well to examine them
more closely, for this lack Of residence,
or springlness, is one Of the signs by
which you VIII recognize the iber.
See that the bristles are secured in
the back Of the brush by wire.

THE HOME DOCTOR.
How Various Aches and Pains May
he Quickly Relieved.


A very good remedy for relieving
earache is to fll a little bag OF soft
fianlel with salt and make this very
hot in the oven. Test it against your
check to make sure 1t is not too hot
and then apply TO the aching ear.
To prevent discoloration from bruises
It will be found expedlent TO apply hot
water cloths to the injured part and re-
new frequently until the pain ceases
As soon as the barking cough begins
in cases OF Group give one drop of aro-
matte ammonia I'm a dessertspoonful OF
water Repeat every fifteen minutes
until relief is obtained OF until a ply
sician can be sent for.
Moistened tea leaves applied to a
burn will relieve the Inflammation and
prevent a scar.
A teaspoon OF ammonia added to a
footbath Of warm water will do much
to rest tired, burning feet. Soak the
feet in this water for fifteen minutes.
Dry. ana while the feet are warm and
moist from the bath rub over them n
small quantity Of vaseline. In the
morning dust the feet over with French
chalk
To remove wart pour on it a drop
OF vinegar aud then cover It with as
much carbonate Of soda as the vinegar
will absorb. Keep it on ten minutes
and repeat the application twice daily.
In a few days the wart generally drops
on. leaving only tiny white mark.
For burns or scalds nothing is moro
soothing than the white OF an egg,
which may be poured over the wound.
II is more soothing as a varnish for a
burn than collodiOn.

London Jan. 19.--John Morley de-
voted a good part of his political
speeches since his return from the
United States to his experiences in
America. Addressing his constituents
at Brechin, after expressing the be-
lief that there will be dissolution of
parliament three or four months hence
Mr.. Morley, said he never spent two
more interesting and stimulating
months than those Of his visit to Can
ada and the United States. Much had
been heard about municipal corrup-
ton in America, he said. but the coun-
try could not be in such a bad way
when It could be said the recent candi-
dates for the presidency had each given
proof positive of their entire probity,
integrity and willingness to sacrifice
personal aims rather than surrender
what they conceived to be sound prin-
ciples. II was true he said our Ameri-
can kinsfolk had a confidence in things
working themselves out which dan
gerously approached fatalism; but
their confidence in their own common
sense was usually justified by the issue.
One Of the greatest struggles democ-
racy in America had to fight out was
the relation between capital and labor
Another apparently almost insoluble
problem was the enormous multiplied
ton and advance northward Of the
black population. The retribution that
followed wrong was finding America
out in this problem, just as Heaven
would one day send a bill to Great
Britain for the folly and wrong Of
Chinese labor in the Transvaal.
