Could Not Have Been Maud.
The Jonesboro Times-Enter
prise says:
“A mule named Maud fell in
an old cistern in the rear of
Knight’s Dry Goods Co., this
morning, and unlike the “Maud”
i of Funny-Page notoriety she
came near to being killed. She
fell in with one hind-leg first
and followed with the other.
Not then content she seemed to
want to explore the bottom of
i the hole which is several feet
deep. After considerable effort
the mule was rescued, but much
the worse for the wear”
Probably one of the “blind
tiger” holes for which Jonesboro
has become notorious—but what
we had most in mind in clipping
a mule item, was to question
whether it was really true that
“her name was Maud.”
The readers of the comic sec
tions are very doubtful and if it
hadn’t been that the alleged
Maud’s hind legs fell in first, the
affidavits of all the preachers in
Jonesboro wouldn’t convince
them that Maud (if her name
was Maud) couldn’t kick her
way out of any hole into which
misfortune threw her.
Piggott Safe Blowers.
Piggott, Feb. 1—Burglars en
tered the business house of C. M.
Spraggins, at this place, last
night at two o’clock and blew
i open the safe and took $20, all
the money that had been left in
l the safe after the close of busi
; ness hours. The safe was com
I pletely torn up, and some dam
age resulted to the floor of the
building by reason of the flying
parts of the safe. The burglars
took no other property so far as
known now. No clue is obtain
able as to the guilty persons.
This is the fourth occurrence of
this kind here within the last
year.

The Truth.
Our progressive druggist, W.
W. Dutton in speaking of the
so-called cures for the many dis
eases of humanity, has occasion
to speak of “Zemo” a positive;
cure for Eczema and all skin dis
eases. The manufacturer of
“Zem >,” Mr. E. W. Rose, of
Harrisburg, 111., gave six hard
years study toward the perfect
ing of “Zemo.” Many persons
in Saline County, of which Har
risburg is the county seat, were
invited to use Mr. Rose’s reme
dy and in a number of cases of i
from 12 to 15 years standing, a
complete cure was the result.
Mr. Dutton says that after being
shown positive proof that “Zemo’
will and does cure the slom
severe and iong standing cases
that he was glad to offer to his
patrons the only remedy that he
believes will absolutely give a
permanent cure. In a few' days
