Over Thirty-fiye Years.

In 1872 there was great deal of diarrhoea, dysentery and cholera in- fantum. It was at this time that Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Di- arrhoea Remedy was first brought into use. It proved more successful than any other remedy or treatment, and has for thirty-five years main tained that record. From small be-. ginning it's sale and use has extended to every part of the United States and to many foreign countries. Nine druggists out of ten will recommend it when their opinion is asked, although they have other medicines that pay them greater profit. It can always be depended on even In the most severe and dangerous cases. For sale by J. T. Sanders.

Called Meeting of the City Council.

By order of Mayor Izard, the city council was called together last Fri day night. The following members answered roll call: Mayor I2ard, AL dermen Russell, Perkins, P'Pool, Me Daniel, Scott, Knight, and Recorder Boyle.
 At the request of the mayor, Alder man Russell stated that the object of the meeting was to take some action in regard to the serious condition of the water works. He suggested a plan to drive wells on the city property near the light plant, not mortgaged, and move the water works plant to that point, and in futherance of that object, he recommended that more territory of the city be taken into the improvement district and bonds issued to the amount necessary for the an ticipated improvement.
 The mayor was instructed to secure the services of Judge N w Norton to draw up the necessary papers without delay and report at the next regular meeting.
 Alderman Russell urged upon the council the necessity of immediately repairing the machinery at the water works, and Alderman Perkins was au- thorized to consult with MT. CarlOss in regard to securing a compressor.
 The council adjourned until next regular meeting night.

tack the vital organs, causing catarrh of the bladder. or the kidneys themselves break down and waste away cell by cell.
 Bladder troubles almost always result from derangement of the kidneys and a cure is obtained quickest by a proper treatment of the kidneys. If you are feel ing badly you can make no mistake by taking Dr. kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
 It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, and over. comes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often through the day and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for it's wonderful cures of the most distressing cases.
 Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and Is sold by all druggists in ffty-cent and one-dollar size bottles. You may have sample bottle of this wonderful new dis. covery and book that tells all about it both sent free by mail. Address, Dr. Xii, mr & Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y.

The political meeting at the school house near Forest Chapel on Thurs day n 'ght of this week, was attended by goodly number of men and wo- men. MT. J. R. Beasley opened the discussion with speech 35 minutes long in opposition to prohibition, and was constantly interrupted by a small squad of young men in the rear of the house, but he held his grip, made all his points, and left the stand to MT. Pace, who proceeded to try to make prohibition speech, but the interruptions and noise continued to such an extent that MT. Pace became disgusted and quit after speaking but short time. Such interruptions at a public meeting are disgrace to any community and the guilty parties ought to be ashamed of themselves.

FARMERS UNION DAY.
Big Crowd at Palestine-P Plenty to Eat and Drink Strong and
 Eloquent Speeches.

The lith day of July was set as the l date of the Rally Day of the Farmers i Union at Palestine by the State As 1 sociation, and it was indeed rally, for about 2000 people filled the spacious and beautiful grounds around the church in the suburbs of Palestine.
 Spacious pits had been dug for the barbecuing of pork, beef and mutton, and all Monday night the glow of the fires in the pits illumined the neigh borhood, and as the shadows of those engaged in the work fitted between the trees it reminded us of one of Dante's pictures, but the odor of we'll barbecued and seasoned meats dis pelled the illusion, and instead of de- mons the shadows were from the wings of ministering angels. as it were
 At an early hour the farmers and their families commenced to come in, and as one old friend remarked, "he never seed ary wagon but what had a basket or a trunk full of eatings. |" l They came from the north, the south, the east and the west, in wagons, buggies, on setback, and on trains, and the contingent from Forrest City numbered over two hundred
 About 10 o'clock Hon. $ F. Sulcer in a few well chosen words told the l people that this was Farmers Union meeting, and it would in no way coun- tenance anything of d political nature, and then introduced Mir Beecher Lewis, an Union lecturer Mir. Lewis l is q scholar, reader, and eloquent orator. and held the attention of his hearers for nearly two hours. listening to the best talk along the line of Farmers and Labor unions that we have heard in many day.
 l At the conclusion of Mir.

 In the afternoon MT. Murray, of Howard county, addressed the crowd as did also MT Lewis. Want of space forbids us publishing the remarks in full, but if the farmers follow the ad- vice and counsel given, there will be no doubt of the success of the Farm CTS Union
 A space was cleared for those who enjoy tripping the light fantastic toe, land the young folks certainly en. joyed themselves. Several snappy games of base ball were played by neighboring teams.
 The crowning feature of the days enjoyment was "buck and wing dance" between MeSsrs. R. A. Bell and James Lamar. These artists sure made the sawdust fly.

TN Slavna DR.. Natchefr continued his
reassuring reports until the public
at large was so reassured as to ask
for no more reports even OF the
most optimistic description, but the
state OF mind Of the few people behind
the scenes was very different. Stat
nitx's conclusion held sway there. The
time was shortl That was the ruling
thought and the governing fact. II
might be very short, and the end might
come without warning The secret was
well kept, but to those to whom he
spoke at all Natchetf spoke openly.
The kings life hung on a thread, which
the least accident might break. With
perfect quiet and tranquility he might
live year, possibly two years. Any
shock or overstrain would precipitate
the end. Countess Ellenburg and her
confidential friends knew this, the king
knew 1t himself, and Lepage, his valet,
knew 1t. There the possession Of the
secret stopped.
The king was gay and courageous.

He seemed almost Indifferent. The best
years We're over, he said, and why not
an end2 An end swift, without pain,
without waitingl There was much to
be said for it. Lepage agreed with his
master and told him so in his usual
blunt fashion. They agreed together
not to cry about 1t, and the king went
fishing still. But the time was short,
and he pushed ON his one great idea
with a zeal and an earnestness foreign
20 his earlier habit. He would see his
son married or at least betrothed be-
fore he died. He would see the great
marriage in train the marriage which
was to establish forever the rank and
prestige of the house Of Stefanovitch.
The Prince of Slavna must set forth on
his travels, seeking a wife. The king
even designated a princess OF most un-
questionable exaltedness as the first
object Of his sons attentions or pur-
suit. With an unusual peremptoriness
and an unusual independence he sent
Stenovics orders to communicate his
wishes directly to the prince. Stenovics

was the countess so singular. We

II we were obliged to define 1t accurate

After one of these conferences the
countess always prayed. 1t may he
presumed that she prayed against the
misfortune of a cast iron terminology.
Probably she also urged her views, for
prayer is in many books and mouths
more of an argument than a petition,
that all marriages were on one and the
same footing and that Heaven knew
naught of a particular variety named

Such were the woman and her mind.
Some pity may go out to her. In the
end, behind all her prayers and inspir-
ing them, nay, driving her to her knees
in fear. was the conviction that she
risked her soul. When she felt that,
she pleaded that it was for her sons
