TEXARKANA!
ARKANSAS AND TEXAS
17 Years Old and Popula-
lation 15000.
Gateway to aqd tram Texas aqd
the Great Southwest.
Texarkana is a live progressive city—Twin City—located partly in
Texas and partly in Arkansas her 15000 population being about equally di
vided between the two States. Though comparatively young she has grown
and developed as few other cities have done.
A KAILROAD CENTER.
Texarkana has eight railroads with over a thousand resident railroad
employes; this gives her especial advantages in the commercial world and
this together with the high and healthy location of the city will in a few
years make her a city of 25000 population. One of these railroads is owned
by home people and runs to navagable water thus giving us competing rates
by water.
ELECTRIC LIGHTS WATER WORKS AND STREET RAILWAY.
Texarkana’s system of electric lights and water works are unsurpassed
by any city of ten times her population. Also has a splendid gas plant
anda splendid system of street railroads permeate the city in every direction.
BANKS FACTORIES ETC.
We have four National banks with an operating capital of $600000.
There are a number of extensive manufacturing enterprises among them fur-
niture factories a fence factory cotton seed oil mill a number of large lum-
ber factories ice factory cotton compress a $125000 Government building
and Federal courts. A $75000 union depot—the finest west of the Missis-
sippi river; two live daily newspapers three large first-class hotels with ca-
pacity for 400 guests daily several large wholesale houses that do an immense
jobbing trade.
LOCATION SOCIETY ETC.
The town site is located near the Eastern appex and at about the high-
est point on a plateau formed by Red and Sulphur rivers which run nearly
parallel and nearly due east for about 100 miles and at a distance of about
thirty miles apart. Being located on an elevation the drainage is good.
Lime potter’s clay and gypsum at hand and coal iron lead and antimony
ores near by and will be virtually at our doors as soon as men and money
can complete the railroads now building to the mines. Thousands of acres
of hardwood timber right at hand. Public graded schools with fine brick
school buildings and two excellent colleges. Churches of nearly all Christian
denominations with church property valued at SBOOOO. No city ia the South
possesses more refined or polite society or more generous and hospitable peo-
ple. Strangers are treated courteously and pains taken to show them our
many advantages.

WHEAT MADE TO WALK
For more than a year I was afflicted with
external sores and ulcers; my right leg
was so bad that 1 could not walk without
a crutch and my general health was very
poor. I was treated nine months by the
most noted physician in Dallas but de-
rived very little benefit from his treat-
ment. My physician finally gave up my
pasc and advised me to go to 1 lot Springs;
but instead of taking his advice I took
Snxet which cured me completely in a
short time. There was a perceptible im-
provement in mvcondition in a few days
and in a few weeks my sores had all heal-
ed and I was again active and strong and
uad no use for crutches. Ruk Wheat

Good Looks.
Good looks are more than skin
deep depending upon a healthy con-
dition of all the vital organs. If the
liver be inactive you have a bilious
look if your stomach be disordered
you have a dyspeptic look and if your
kidneys be affected you have a pinch-
ed look. Secure good health and you
will have good looks. Electric Bit-
ters is the great alterative and tonic
acts directly on these vital organs.

Pronounced Hopeless Yet Saved.
From a letter written by Mrs. Ada
E. Hurd of Groton S. D. we quote:
“Was taken wito a bad cold which
settled on my lungs cough set in and
finally terminated in consumption.
Four doctors gave me up saying I
could live but a short time. I gave
myself up to my Saviour determined
If I could not stay with my friends on
earth I would meet my absent ones
above. My husband was advised to
get Dr. King’s New Discovery for
consumption coughs and colds. I gave
it a trial took in all eight bottles ; it
lias cured me and thank God I am
now a well and hearty woman.”
