George Haralson, of Augusta,
was in Little Rock last Saturday
to see the ball-game. On Sun
day, he was worshipping in Cu
pid’s Famous Temple at Conway
“Distance lends charm to all en
chantment. ” None know this
better than Cupid. Consequently,
she pulls the cords of love and
; sends her worshippers on mis
! sions of love. Judging from the
Inumber of these missionaries
sent to Conway from our County
we’re led to believe thatCupid has
a poor opinion of the success of
her cause in Conway. She also
kuows\that no county can supply
such valiant missionaries as can
the lovely county of Woodruff.
Mr. Gordon, be kind to George,
run his train whenever he
wears a missionary countenance
and above all don’t fall out with
him when Cupid keeps him
longer than the intended time.
Remember, Mr. Gordon, you
were once iu Cupid’s employ.

ward bound, he met up with Maj.

country with which they were
acquainted some 30'or 40 years
ago. Mr, Tucker told us that he
had spent many a night danc
ing about McCrory. He and Maj.
Dent recalled some lively dances
they attended on the Featherston
place a mile or two northeast of
here. While in the midst of the
grand review of past events, Maj.
handed us a dollar with which to
credit his account. Then the con
versation continued, T. asked us
about his friend Musgrove, of
Grays. He expressed regret for
not having an oppotunity to visit
him. Mr. Tucker is a whole
soul man, liberal in his views
and firm in his convictions. It
does a person good to make the
acquaintance of such a person.

HAWKIN’S PROLIFI
COTTON.
This cottofi was imported by me last year and I find it
far ahead of any cotton I have ever tried. I already have
6 bales picked: this gives you an idea of how early this
Cotton is. J. D. Johnson says two bales of this cotton
ginned by him turned out as follows: 1770 seed cotton
made a bale weighing 648 pounds and out of 1680 seed cot
ton 560 pounds. Mr. Hailey says it is far superior to the
ordinary cotton. You can buy the seed at Johnson,s gin
for $1.00 per hundred or give him l£ bushels for one.
