RECLAIM lANGUlLLE LANDS.

Memphis. Tenn. Jan. 25. I4t2 NIT F. W. DeRassitt.
 Forrest City, Arkansas.
 Dear Sir:-The iand owners in Cross and Poinsett counties, lying just above St. Francis county, organized some time ago and now have under construction a drainage district and drainage canals to improve the drain age of the L'Anguille River lands ly ing in the western part of these counties.
 The drainage will be brought down to the L'Anguille River lands lying in the western part of St. Francis county, and will necessitate your county providing canals and improy ing the drainage channels of the river down to the Lee county line. Even if the drainage work being done in the above counties did not bring this matter up at this time, it would be great advantage 10 the owners of the LAnguile River lands fl drainage channels and canals were provided.
 There will be l am sure within the next few years considerable demand for these lands in your county princi pally fer purchase and settlement by white people from the North and Middle Western states. There is no question but what it would be a first class investment t0 have these lands drained.
 do not know whether you own any of the L Anguile River land in your county or not but know that you are interested indirectly, and am writing you this letter to get yaar opinion as to whether you think t advisable or worth while to take this matter up at the present time With view of organizing q drainage district there and constructing these canals within the next year or two.
 Kind ' advise me What you think of the matter and Ereat y3bIige
 Yours very truly.

BEES AS RHEUMATISM CURE
Medical Authorities, After Thorough
Examination, Say sting Has
Curative Value.

Ia recent issue Of tAe Farm and
Firesido is an account Of the use Of
blessings az = cure for rheumatism,
This cure has been thoroughly exam
ined by some Of the great eastern med.
zeal colleges and Endorsed by them as
scientific, The essence OF the cure
lies IN the formic acid which bees
inject into the blood. Following IL
a brief extract from the article:
"one sting will not cure your rheu-
matism, neither win two or three. but
II you let one bee sting you every day
your rheumatism will soon disappear.
That's what some prominent ply
siolans say who are watching an in
terestlng experiment In Cincinnati, o.

sufferer from rheumatism, Is taking

ing bees has made the marked change
In his chronic condition.
"Only a few cases are on record
where bees were used to cure rheuma-
tism. Mr.. Fred w. Muth became In
terested in bee culture through his
having rheumatism. Now he has bees
and no rheumatism.
physicians who are watching this
interesting experiment say that the
formic acid which makes the sting OF
the bees so sharp and painful for the
moment Is the agent which nulliheS
the dreadful rheumatic pains. Sharp
and painful as the stings are, It is a
pain OF relief compared TO the dull
and incessant pain Of the rheumatism,
declares Renner. the patient

For years the winds battered and
the sun and rains rotted the ropes on

IN attempts to scale the rocks and re-

passed forbidding any one to make
the attempt without the necessary le-

to the post with large sum Of money.
The chest disappeared and its loss was
