proprietor OF the City Barber Shop,
has purchased the Southern Hotel
from Lum Wynn and took charge
this week. He will continue his

best hotels of North Arkansas,
Bills have been posted over town
announcing a four days Fireman's
Tournament at Webb City, Mo,
ending with to-day. Such things

gets 100 hot, our town might have
participated in the festivities.

There WERE nine soiapillows piled
around a certain young man who
was sparkling a certain girl the other
night. And while the favored sutton
was thus lolling at his ease, the girls
father sat on a hard-bottomed,
STRAIGHTFORWARD chair in the kitchen,
