FRIDAY, AUGUST 21, 1903.
I K sorry day in Arkansas pol
itics when some man isn’t referred
f to in language unfit to print.
The Journal indorses the posi
| tion of the Newport News in re
> gard to Col. V. Y. Cook as com- j
mander of the State Guard. Col.
Cohk is the proper man for the
]>osition. __
And now our friend Coger, of
the Sharp County Record, says it
would be a good thing if Arkansas
would go republican. We knew
UlatCoger was a weak-kneed dem
# oerat, but never suspected that he
r would ever make such a tlop as
1 this. _
We had no idea that the dis-;
tlngu.shed Gosh Watta Hunch, pro-1
prietor of the Newport Indepen
dent, who, at last accounts, was
touring the North a la Weary Wil- i
lie, would become so infatuated
with life on the road as to suspend
publication of his paper. But it
» .-sctHis that such is the case; at
least w’e havn’t received a copy of
that paper in two weeks.
The esteemed Pocahontas News j
Herald is mistaken, its usual.
There lias not been an editorial in
this sheet for three (weeks. But
the News-Herald manlhas become
eo accustomed to runnmg his old
^r-sH^M|p^{T«^:i'(>r-fivejH0it pencil
it like
a boy twisting a rabbit out of a
hollow log, that it 1ms become sec
ond nature with him. He simply
can't quit it, and we don't like to
criticise a fellow who is so weak
minded that he can't tell an edito
rial from a communication.
From present indications the
farmers of the South are about to
enter upon the greatest era of
prosperity they have enjoyed in
many years. Cotton has reached
13 cents and is now so scarce that
a number of'mills have been forced
to close down. During the com
ing season it will require an enor
mous crop to supply the demand
for the fleecy staple, consequently
the farmers ought to get the best
prices they have obtained in years.
The prospects for a good crop are
very favorable, but it is certain
that there can be no overproduc- i
tion this year. So, with a good
crop and good prices, two condi
tions that rarely exist at the same j
time, the farmers will Ik* in the j
most prosperous condition in the
history of the country.
Puts an End to it AH.
A grevious wail oftimes comes i
as a result of unbearable pain from'
over-taxed organs. Diziness, back j
ache, liver complaint and consti
pation. Put thanks to Dr. King's j
New Life Pills they put an end to j
it all. They are gentle but thorough i

Another Old Keep-sake.
Tlie Newark Journal tells about
a piece of money that 1*. A. May
han has had ever sinco he was a
boy. The only way that Mr. May
ban beats us in the keepsake busi
ness is that he is an older man than
we arc. lie was born in 1S30, and
has lmd his piece of money ever
since he was a baby. We were
born in 1843, and still have a pock
et knife that was given us to play
with ainmt one year later. We
carried it all through our child
hood and school-boy days carried
it in our hand when we wore
dresses and have been carrying a
knife in our hand to play with
nearly ever since. In fact we are
lost without a knife, but never
actually lost a knife in our life.

End of a Hitter Fight.

flore Old floney.
The mentioning of ( apt. R. R.
Reeves old piece of money, which
bears the date of 1300, brought to
light the fact there were a number
of old coins snugly tucked away in
safe places by different citizens of
this community. Shortly after the )
article about Captain Reeves’ old j
coin was published in The Jour
nal. our friend, P. A. Mayhan, of
White River township, came in
with one made in lTSfi. .Last Sat
urday, after reading about Mr.
Mayhan’s old coin, our good friend,
J.C. Lewis, the carpenter, brought
in one bearing the date of 1785.
Mr. Lewis has captured the hon
jors for having the oldest piece of
money in the community, unless
some one can beat him, though the
contest is close betweed ho and
I Mr. Mayhan. Mr. Lewis’ piece
| of money is a Spanish coin about
the size of an Amercan 25-eent
piece and all the inscriptions on it
are easily readable with the naked
eye. Ho found it while plowing
in his garden when living at Sul
phur Rock six years ago. If any
man in the community can beat
this for an old piece of money we
would like to hear from him.

TIRED AND
WORN OUT.
Women Need
a constant supply of blood-making ma
terial or their systems will break down.
The complicated female organism is
so delicately adjusted as to be easily
thrown out of balance. As a result,
health and strength are at fee ted by
divere diseases. Motherhood, family,
society all levy such drains upon her
strength that most women break under
the nervous tension. The demands
upon her nervous strength are much
greater than similar demands of the
opposite sex. Hence she must be sup
plied in greater measure with the ele
ment—iron—that gives strength. The
reason women feel tired and worn out
and suffer from headache, pains in the a
back and limbs, etc., is because they Jf
have used up their supply of iron.
Menstruation trouble is largely caused
by lack of iron.
Dr. Harter’s
Iron Tonic
supplies this element. It enriches the
blood and restores what strain has
used up.
Augusta, Ark., May 10,1901.
“After having sold Dr. Harter's remedies
for thirty years I ran -beerfully recommend
them. 1 might add that 1
hold in spec ial favor Dr. Har
ter’s Iron Tonic, and would
recommend it as the very
preparation of iron I am ac
quainted with. To weak, worn-out
women, and those troubled with nerv
ousness, poor digestion, and pale, thin
Mood, 1 believe It to be a panacea.
