DEMOCRAT TIMES. _ * .1. M. Wallace, of Sand Ridge, visited Democrat Saturday. Mis. Lillie Wallace Is laid up with the grippe. The weather was on a grand rampage Saturday night Mrs. Lula Thomas has lost her grip. This community won’t have to plant any cotton this year, as they have got all they will gut her on hand. .1. M. Gunter visited lieth, Ark., on husiuess Monday, returning Tuesday, afoot, as Pete had left him. Mrs. Tennie Wright left here Tuesday for Lonoke, Ark., where site intends t<> make her future home. Mrs. Delia Jackson is much improved, after i;uite a tussle with the grippe. ltev. Moses Laue visited this section Wednesday. Uurrab for lilalock! He's the right man in the right place—let's keep him there. Mi's Sal lie Hughes visited Mrs. Thomas Wednesday. This week has l»een just like spring. March has made a beautiful appearance so far. Richard Mooney lias given up the mail route, lie will embark in the timber business in ttie near future. We are afraid tiie timber market will be glutted. We have not seen any preparation by tbeC.it: M. It. R. to dram Dry Rayou at Heth. If (tie road officials would come over and see what a condition the county road is in at Heth, caused by the bayou being dammed up by the railroad dump, they would put in a vent at once, and it would 'ave us and them a great deal of trouble, as they will have to open this bayou in the near future. J. M. Wallace, of Sand Ridge, went to Memphis the first of this week. H. 1*. Owen, -of Lulu, passed through h**re enroute to Forrest City and Memphis the latter pirt of last week. Most all persons have lost their grip(pe) except Phineas Lamb—he has a bad case yet. P. Jackson is on the puny list. Sir.vKK Bill. HI* Life Was Saved. i -- - - - . Mr J. K. Lilly, a prominent citizen of liauuib.il, Mo., lately had a wonderful deliverance from a frightful death. In telling or it he sajs: “I was taken with tvphnid'fever, that ran into pneumonia. My lungs became hardened. I was so weak 1 couldn't even sit up in bed. Noth ing helped uie. 1 expected to soon die of consumption, when I heard of Dr. King’s New Discovery. One bottle gave great : relief. I continued to use it, and now am ‘ well and strong. 1 can’t say too much in ; its pra.se.” This marvelous medicine is j the surest and quickest cure in the world lor all throat and lung trouble, itegular I sizes. 50 cents and SI.00. Trial bottles tree at ,1. II Dunavaut Jc Co.’s drugstore. Every bottle guaranteed. MADISON times. Business in all Hues has been brisk since the winter broke. Cotton is coming in lively since fanners have resumed pickiug. Commercial tourists have been nuiner •<:us here the past week. .1. D. Baugh, of Forrest City, passed through Madison Tuesday on Ins way to the St. Francis bottom, where he has a large interest. Dr. C. C. White has made several pro fessional calls here leeeutly. Mrs. W. F. Epps speut Monday in For rest City visiting her mother, Mrs. Lucy Cfippen. Mrs. II W. Wheeler returned Friday •tom a protracted i mi to friends in Mem phis. Misses .'' in-.and l’atis. y Wheeler, sisters ot Mr. Wfteeler, accompanied her home. The many friends of I>ave Thorn are giad to see him oil (lie streets again, he having had a severe attack of the grippe. . Joseph Seigwort spent Sunday in the lilutT City with his family. Capt. A. Whyte is (pile feehle at this writing. We hope to soon hear of an im provement in his condition. Miss Jessie Kpps is sufficiently recuper ated to se.i'.iine her duties in the postofVce. Dr. 1’iKil made a professional visit here Sunday T. L. Humph.cy - a member of the Sec ond Arkansas "\ olunleers, has returned home. . *■ l)r. Wm. Crutcher was in Msdlson 1 Wednesday l-ast Monday morning at live o’clock, death entered our midst and claimed as i his vict in Mrs. .Kale, wife of 11. W. Crip pt n, and one of Madison's most noble wo men, Her death was not a surprise to a great many, as she had been an invalid j for live years, during which time her suf ferings were indescribable, lint a few days prior to her death, there seemed toliv amarkid improvement in her condition, but during the recent severe weather site C mttacted a cold which Iter frail constitu tion was utterly powerless to withstand, a H medical ekni proved futile as a means o; relief. She was a consistent member of file Methodist eburcli and lived a life worthy of iMiitat'oo. lier Christian faith was a great solac'd during her long years o suffering. She looked for death with easing anticipat ion. it living to her the ir nsitioi* from a «uid of stnrovv and eat fering to one of perpetual peace and hap piness. She was a dutiful daughter, a loving sister and devoted wife and mother. She leaves a husband, two children, (the youngest too young to realize its loss.) a mother, two brothers and a sister, to whom we extent condolence In this which is in deed a most trying hour with them, as Mrs. Crippen’s brother, Jas. Ilumprheys, death preceded hers only live days.* Dr. W. II. Alley came- down Wednes day evening aud returned on the next train. Since our last, a young Miss McFall has made her appearauce in the home of 1MV. McFall, and to say that the father is elated puts it mildly. The mother aud babe are doiug well. Bismarck’s Iron Nerve Was the result of bis splendid health. Indomitable will and tremendous energy aie not found where stomach, liver, kid ueys and bowels are out of order. If you want these qualities and tbe success they bring, use Dr. King's New Life Fills. They develop every power of brain and body. Only 25c at J. II. Duuavaut &. Co.'s drugstore. BURNT CANE TIMES. As vve have noi seen any items trora this place for some time, we will endeavor to gather what we can. D. C. McDaniel was a pleasant caller in j our neighborhood Sunday. T. J. Withers, of Widener, spent a couple of days hi this vicinity, looking af ter his farming interest, this week. D. C. Webb, of Forrest City, was over Monday looking after his farm aud the tur keys. Prof. () J. llall, jr., visited relatives* and friends at Lakeview Saturday ami Sunday. Wm. Worrall is putting mlt a large tiue lot of gum and oak timber at Kennedy ltidge. Will is a hustler. Richard Cox, who is running an exten sive tit..her camp on Blacktish Bayou, speut Sunday and Monday at home. F. M. Golightly paid Widener a pleas ant call Monday. Nearly all of the farm land has been rented for another year. This bottom laud never fails to tent. Ask some of our bora about going to preaching. They will I ell you. Geo. 1, Turk, of Ful wood, came over .Sunday evening and will spend a few days with us. George and numerous friends here who are always glad to welcome him hack to his old stamping ground Mrs. Pollute Council is visiting Widen er for several dais. We think surely there must be some attraction. O. J. Hall was at Widener Monday on business. Miss Toinmye A. Davis, who has just closed a very successful term of school i here, returned home Monday.

James Robinson. we are toll’, has resigned the pastorale of the Bap tist church. We have been unab'.e to get particulars. 1). G. Cook kas been over to his fainr several days tins week, and lias made the best of tins tine weather to g’ji out the balance of his crop. The beautiful weather for a week has tilled every cotton patch with pickers, and hundreds of bales have been Saved in tins county. The quality is good, but greatlv damaged by dirt and slicks.! A coujile ot weeks of sunshine will per-i mil nearly if not quite all the crop to be gathered and settle the cottou ques tion for this season. The bluebirds, lining practically ex tinct. may no longer be considered the “harbingers of spring,” and young la dies on horseback have usurped this distinction. We are encouraged to be lieve tiie enchanted season is at hand, judging by the appeal ance ot a bevy of beauteous maidens, capped and skirted, mounted upon prancing steeds, wlm ap peared upon the highways last Monday. The Woodmen of the World held their regular monthly meeting last ! night and transacted a considerable amount ot business, among the itemsot which was the election of tluee new ap plicants, mid constituting M N' Gaines Jh-puiy Sovereign Commander, whose duty it is to examine applications for lnemheisliip.

Thousands of sirk and suffer- 1 irg people are like the poor cripple in the j Bible, who had no one to help him down to the lift-giving i pool before j some one else slipped in ahead of him. 1 So many suf l ferers feel that if they could only get a little I help to over come their ex treme weak ness they I would then be able to regain their coveted health and strength. It is just these people that Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery is designed to aid. It is the strong, helping hand for those who are in the extreme of bodily weakness and nervous exhaustion. It promptly ton s, nourishes and builds up the entire system. It gives keen appe tite. good digestion, pure blood, muscular strength, nerve-force and renewed activity. “ When I first wrote you I was completely dis couraged.' siivs Mrs W. M.

My skin was dry. harsh and scaly and hung like sacks on my arms My husband called the doctor, and he said it was weakness, and my age His medicine did me no good. I kept getting worse and weaker.
