The merits of the uten- sils are being glowingly described to boardinghouse keepers i'll par ticular, it is stated, and patrons of said houses are looking forward to more enjoyable existence. Geo. Givins of Pea Ridge is the origi- nator of the "Tenderer". Anoth- CT of his inventions is the Ideal Stovepipe Adjuster.

EARTH JARRED BY
 IMMENSE METEOR

Nashville. Sept. IA great meteor fell at some point northeast of Nashville at IT o'clock last Sun day night, resulting in an explo- sion which was heard throughout southwest Arkansas, jarring the earth until the windows rattled. Many people who had not retired saw the meteor passing through the air, the explosion following the disappearance of the object about three minutes, which in- dicated that the point where the meteor came in contact with the earth was many miles away.
 Tie entire heavens were lighted up as if by the sun, the rays of the moon being dimmed while the object was passing through the air.
 Messages received here from Hope, Lockesburg, Mi Il nera a l Springs and Murfreesboro state that the light was seen and the explosion heard at these place.
 A peculiar feature of the phe- nomenon was that a rumbling sound, as of distant thunder, con- tinued for several seconds after the explosion.
 The location at which the mete- or fell has not yet been learned here

 To have the pains and aches of a bad back removed; to be entirely free from annoying, dan. erous urinary disorders IS enough to make any kidney sufferer grateful. To tell how this great change can be brought about will prove com- forting words to hundreds of Con- way readers.

My back was SO weak and painful that for weeks l could not straighten. l often had dizzy spells anu at such tunes had to catch hold of something to keep from falling.

A'So''y VAj~OotoN'
 Nearly a million and quarter dollars were paid out for cotton seed at Conway during the season. It is difficult to approximate the average price paid per bale. The Memphis cotton exchange esti- mates the average in Memphis at $5o.5o per bale, while ill Little Rock it is figured at $50 3I. The figures, however, are doubtless too high, as the bulk of the crop was sold early in the season, when the average price was much lower. Figuring the average price in Con- way at $45 per bale, which is prob ably not far from correct, the re- ceipts here brought total of $I ,o6I,o55. Each bale represent ed about half-ton of seed, which would mean about SC per bale ad- ditional, or nearly SI5o, 900.
 How Conway Reaches Out.
 A comparison Of the number of bales shipped from Conway with the number ginned in Faulk- ner county shows the remarkable manner in which Conway is reach ing out into adjacent territory to the county for cotton. The fame of this place as cotton market has spread over this section of the state to such an extent that cotton raised 25 to 30 miles from the Faulkner county line is marketed here. Formerly this city received considerably less cotton than was ginned in Faulkner county.

There Is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that Is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is cured by an
infamed condition OF the mucous
ining of the Eustachion Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have n
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when It is entirely closed Deaf
ness is tho result and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
saused by Catarrh, which is nothing
ut an infamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
