All Unstrung. hany Brinkley People Suf- fer from Nervous Trou-
 bleS and Don't
 Know Why.

Thousands of cases of kidney trouble show few outward symp- toms except nervousneS~ de- pression, lanquok irritpbility and an inclination b worry over trifles. It is gelerally due to the poisionous action of uric acid on blood and nerves, and can't be cured except by curing the kidneys. Doan's Kidney Pills cure these ills by curing the kid neys. Brinkley women are learning it. HeAe'F a local case.
 Mrs. Fred Bietze, Pine St., Brinkley, Ark, says: About five years ago my kidneys be- came disordered and my health rapidly declined. I suffered se- verely from backachc and felt worn out nearly all the time. I tried many remedies that were recommended to me, but 1 grad ually grew worse. Upon a friends advice, I at last began taking Doan's Kidney Pills, pro- cured at the New Drug Store and was soon restored to good health. During the years that have since passed, have had no return attack of kidney trouble and am bound to look upon my cure as a permanent one"

CYCLONE MONEY DISTRIBUTED
ROCK ISLAND OFFICIALS DISTRIBUTE FUNDS THAT SUPI. WHITTtnI0h

Many times during the days of reconstruction following the cy- clone, inquiry was made of the gentleman composing the Relief Committee, concerning the dis position of fund that was re- ported to have been sent in to the Committee to be distributed among the Rock Island Ky, em- ployes who were sufferers in the cslione. la each instance the committee met the inquiry with the information that no such fund had ever been received by them.
 Itappears that the railroad em- ployes in the various:branches of service did contribute to fund to be sent to their fellow employees, who were sufferers in the cyclone. but not until last Friday did the fund reach Brinkley.
 When Supt. A. B. Copley came over from Little Rock and upon recommendation of committee composed of railroad employees paid out the following sums from this fund which had been turned over to him by those who collect ed it.

 Brooks Med. Co.,, Russellville,
 ~ Ark.
 My Dear Sir: For several weeks I have been intending to write you in reguard to your Baby Balm.
 If. you remember, when you were here this summer told you that your baby was sick. He was then having his third attact of bowel trouble this summer. They were very severe The first two were exceedingly alarming and I suggested to my wife that we try your remedy, but she was >prejudice against patent medicens, so was l, but, l know ing you, pave me confidence to some extent, [pardon the modi- fled claue.
 In the last case however my wife agreed to try your Baby Balm. l went to my doctor and told him that I wanted to try it. He said he did not know what 1t contained but to give it a trial. We did, and it worked like a charm. Now my wife will not be without it and the baby has not had a bad case with his bow els since we began using it. You know how parents are about the baby. We watch him and if any trouble is indicated Brooks Baby Bowel Balm is put into service promotly and it has not failed to keep him straight so far.
 I have been at the drug stores here on different occasions when parties come in for baby medi- cine and just can't land don t try) to keep from 'buttin' in" and telling thesn to. get your Baby Balm. Just night before last a man came into a drug store to get baby medicine. My wife says tell him to get Baby Balm,'' but he had already learned it's worth and that was what he was after.
 You yourself know that l have always found objection to the publishing of patent medicine advertising in my paper and l never thought thatI would be a person to write recomnenda- ton for a patent medicine, but l could hardly resist in this case, since feeling the great benefits received from your Baby Balm.
 Very respectfully yours, w. K. BAKER.
 The above is one of the thous- ands of unsolicited letters receiv- ed in support of Baby Balm and l this baby is one of the 50, 900 Arkansas Babies testing Baby Balm last year, amongs' which was not a single failure or com plaint.
 MT. Baker is Editor and Pro- prietof of the Advance Reporter of Waldron, Ark. one of the largest and best weekly news papers in the state. His letter IS gwen space here because ol his known prejudice against patent medicines.
 The manufacturers offer $lOOO 1 for a formula or prescription pro- ducing a greater per cent of cures than Baby Balm. They also offer S1OO for a case of bow Tel infection in children that will not yield to Baby Balm if given under specific directions from beginning.
 There are fully 50 to 100 people rightin Brinkley who would pay $5 for 5 years sub scription to the ARGUS and thus save 50 per cent if they were

The Old EnaIish Prize Rina.

In the latter days of the English
prize ring innumerable expedients had
10 be devised TO bring of a fight. A
favorite plan was to pitch the ring on
the borders of two counties. so that
the question OF magisterial Jurisdiction
might be rendered difficult Another
plan was to charter steamboat and
proceed down the Thames TO some
lonely police forsaken spot In the
marshes of Essex. For the memorable
contest between Sayers aud Heenan in
1860 special train was run from Lon
don bridge to secret destina ton.
But the passengers. who comprised
members OF parliament, peers. pick
pockets. pugilists. clergy and. II is
said. few bishops, cheerfully took
tickets simply marked excursion"
They presently found themselves near
marlborough. In Surrey. where the
fight occurred.-London Chronicle.

Saved.

The home OF Jerry Rusk in the
south part Of Joseph, was struck by
lightning Friday forenoon about 1873
O'Clock and burned to the ground.
Mr.. and Mrs. Rusk were up on
Prairie Greek at the time. but by
prompt and hard work the neighbors
succeeded in saving all the contents
of the house, and the outbuildings.
The loss is about $1,000, with no in
surance.
The same bot of lightning
shocked a number of people in Jo-
seph, knocking several down, but
none was seriously hurt. Shingles
were torn off several roofs. Two
sons of Ellie Maxim were near the
telephone line between the town
and lake, and saw ball of fire as
large as mans head run along the
wire toward the lake.
The rain came down in torrents as
if there had been a veritable cloud
,urst above the town.
