Deitghtful Kansas.

Correspondence of Tse Union. El Paso, Kansas, January 1, 1879.—The winter thus far has been extremely cold, the oldest settlers claiming that it is the coldest since 1865. There is plenty of snow for good sleighing, something quite uncommon for Kansas. The Arkansas river at this point has been frozen over for three weeks so that loaded teams cross with safety. Stock looks well. The great stock range, one hundred milea southwest of here, has been snowed under for two weeks, and unless it becomes warmer soon stock out there will starve to death. During the winter season on this range stock feed on buffalo grass and require no bay except where snow falls, which is very seldom. If one wants to raise cattle extensively he should go to Barbour county, Kansas, where the broad prairies teem with herds of cattle numbering from 500 to 3,000 AmTjMiines as numerou*. In our section wheat looks well and bids fair to be a a good crop. About one-half of last year’s crop has been sold for 50 to 68 cents a bushel; some think the price will reach 80 cents before spring. There is plenty of corn at 20 to 25 cents a bushel. Hogs are worth |2 per hundred, weight gross. Game, such as deer, antelope, wild turkeys, ducks, prairie chickens ana quails, is abundant. Land buyers from ludiana and Illinois are iiuiucrous, traversing the country in jevery direction in search of homes.

Experience has led to an honest belief that there is no disease that can be kept in subjection, or that can he modified, by the use of medicine, but that can be acted upon in a far more satisfactory manner by the BoLMAN REMEDIES (the Pad, Pl asters and Medicated Foot Baths, known as absorption salt). It is also believed that there is NO disease that medicine can Xctu b .« C tW,?r 9 e atment. Certain 1F I? that times without number, disaaua universally acknowledged beyond the reach of medicine hava melted away under the action ALONE of theee remedies. And the work was done so quickly, with so little inconvenience to the patient, that In many cases the pain was gone before he or she waa aware.

The Government having successfully resumed specie payments and brought the Greenback Currency to par with Gold and Silver in all of the Exchange Markets cf the Commercial World, having thus bridged the chasm of value that so long discriminated between the rich man’s dollar and the poor man’s to the great hardship of the poor man, and now being engaged in decreasing the rate of interest she pays to Bond Holders from 6 per cent, down to 4 per cent, or one-third, to the satisfactory amount of 830,000,000 per prospects have a decidedly more cheerful and hopeful appearance; which induces the proprietors of the well-known and popular NEW YORK STORE to announce their return to old-time Cash Prices, ss will be shown by the following partial Schedule of some leading articles, to which they respectfully invite atteulioiir not mentioned bear corresponding prices. 25-cent Dress Hoods Reduced to 12$ cents per Yard. 15-cent Dress Goods Reduced 12$-cent Dress Goods Reduced t 0... 5 do Black Cashmeres, Silks, &c., In Proportion. 75-cent Jeans for 45 cents per Yard. 50« cent Jeans for 30 cents do 80-ceiit Jeans for... 20 cents do At no House in Jnsper County will goods be sold cheaper for Cash ( and at these prices nothing but cash will do), than at the NEW 'VORK STORE.

GREAT REDUCTION Having just returned from Chicago with a very large stock of Clothing, Dry Goods, Boots, Shoes, Hats, Caps, Ladies’ and Gentlemen’s Furnishing Goods, Shawls, Cloaks and Woolen Goods of every description, I am able to offer my patrons greater bargains than ever. These goods were bought for cash, and a handsome sum was saved in the discount; this enables me to compete with any body in my line of business in this part of the country. Upon goods bought at my establishment I will guarantee an actual SAVING OF AT LEAST TEN PER CENT. To convince the reader of the truth of this statement the prices of a few articles are appended, and all others will correspond. Read and believe: Best genuine English Worsted Suits only $19.50 Best all wool Taft, Tweet & Co. Cassimere do 16.00 Best business Suits, $4 50 to - - - 10.00 Best Imperial Chinchilla Overcoats - - 16.00 Best imitation Chinchilla Overcoats $6 to 8.00 A nice School Suit $8 to - f . - - 8.00 Hats for Men and Boys from 25 cents to $2.50 each. Other Houses would consider them cheap at 40 cents to 03,00. * These prices i cannot be beaten. Don’t be persuaded to buy before looking at my stock. Twill sell the entire stock at cost and less to close it out before January Ist, 1878. It is not surprising that people complain of hard times when they persist in paying from 10 to 15 per cent, more for goods than they can buy warranted articles for, if they would trade with the subscriber. Give me a call and convince yourselves of the truth. ‘ Respectfully, , A- XiEOPOXiD.
