The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1876-06-08

A young lady in this city a few
days ago was engaged in explaining
to a young gent the difference be-
tween liking and loving. She said
that likinga person was only think
ing something of him, but loving a
man was different, that a woman
that loved q man wanted to kiss
him all the time. That young lady
is posted.
A book agent who has retired
from active labor, upon the hard
earned accumulation of life Of in
dustrious cheek, says that the great
secret Of his success was, when he
went to a house where the female
head of the family presented itself,
he always opened by saying, 4 beg
your pardon, Miss, but it was your
mother wanted to see.' That al
ways used to get 'em. They not
only subscribed for my books them

HOUSE FL1Es.-It has been manifested
bymany writers of distinction that these
insects, especially in out-of-the-way pla-
ces, where no prepared food is found,
subsists upon sort of ethereal inrusoria
of so minute an organization as to be in
visible except blythe aid of the most
powerful microscopes. These floating
atoms of life the flies gather up on their
wings while playing about, then rub them
off with their feet and feed upon, them,
and this is their occupation, as frequent
ly seen after having alighted and when
rubbing off their wings with their feet.
The same powers which enable these flies
to run up and down pane Of glass or to
crawl, back down, upon the ceiling, ena.
able them also to retain this kind of food
upon the feet till transferred to their
proboscides and consumed. They are
generally found to leave Or are lying dead
at the approach of any prevailing cpl
demic.

enter into a contract. For each shooting

these interesting occasions a half hour
passed away and not solitary star shot
across the sky. But after a while the
cherry lips of the young lady parted and
she called her young mans attention to
the flying meteors that were about to
escape his observation then she got to
calling his attention to the lightning

there is such a man, he should be
the nominee. Either the Hon. John

The Governors great popularity is
very easily accounted for by those
that come in contact with him, and
on the whole journey since his NOM
ination, Hayes has been endorsed in
our hearing without single dissent
ing voice, in the hotels and on the
trains. Calling the Governors atten
tion to the fact, he replied, that per-
haps it was 'for the want of some
body else to endorse, as the opposi-
ton had not made their nomination

have for the past four months shed an in

forbidding further disturbance of
game, being now in full force,
however, the beasts of the fed

the young man of whom the poet
speaketh, lightly turn to vernal amatory
