AFTERNOON.
DORA GREENwELI..

'sOh, sweet" she said, "that afternoon,
The smile of God on Land and sea;
And sweet through many a vanished June
Comes back, like a remembered tune,
The silence OF the shore to me!
On, sweet the moment was! the Scenei
The flashing of the shingles wet,
The scent of clover and of bean,
Warm fragrance of the fields that met
The salt fresh breezes of the sea!
The white sails dropping out of sight
Were kindled into tawny flame,
And all the moor lay stepped in light
The way he came, the way he came.
"Oh, sweet" she said, "the warm, wet reach
OF glittering sandl The tide that woke
In tumult all along the beach.
Yet made the very calm Ii broke.
Blue was the heaven that DER us bent;
= The sheep upon a sunward slope
A quiet to the landscape lenti
And all things gave widening scope
To thoughts OF peace and calm content,
And all things seemed In league with hope
The way we went, the way we went!'

Fatal Mistake,

We understand that one day
last week a doctor was sent for
by Mr.. James Woods, who re-
sides about five miles south of
Lewisburg, in Marshall coun-
ty, to visit his three daughters,
who were suffering with chills.
The doctor arrived, and through
some mistake, administered
morphine instead of quinine,
from the effects of which the
youngest, aged about twelve
years, died early in the morn
ing, and the other two, both
grown young ladies, were dead
before two o'clock in the even
ing. The sad occurrence cast a
gloom over the entire neighbor-
hood. The three young ladies
were all buried in the same
grave. This fatal mistake should
prove a warning to all doctors,
and cause them to be very par
ticular when administering med
icine to their patients.
We understand that no steps
will be taken against the doctor
who administered the morphine,
as all agree that it was a mis-
take, and not intentional on his
part &elbyUMe Gazette.

A. o. u. w.

A friend has favored us with
the second number OF "IRe IVSd-
ow and Orphans Friend, the
Organ of the Ancient Order OF
United Workmen Of the State of
Tennessee. From il we learn
that there are in this State "a
working lodges with a member
ship OF 1920. Protection Lodge
No. 8, Fayetteville, reports 40
members. The reports made TO
the last Supreme Lodge Of the
Order, aggregated the member
ship in the United States at I'll
$40. It's object is briefly sum,
marised as follows
The A.. o. u. W. simplifies the
mutual assurance method by a
system of Lodges where the mem
bers assemble at regular weekly
intervals at a comparatively trif-
ling outlay; these Lodges are
governed by regularly elected of
ficers. the financial affairs are un-
der a proper restraint, and sys-
tenn of admirable checks prevents
the possibility of fraud or betrayal
of trust. II is essentially a mod
ern institution, its name to the
contrary notwithstanding. 1t is
adapted to modern life and habits;
its creed is predicated upon an en-
lightened and liberal public senti-
lnent, and its purposes and princl.
Piles find a spontaneous approval
among prudent people everywhere.
Even many of those who are con-
scien.iously opposed to secret or
ganizations have not only failed
10 discover anything Objectionable
in the rites and ceremonies of the
A. o. u. W., but they have, on
the contrary, found themselves in
full sympathy with it, and &C.
.cordingly large numbers have
Joined it, and given cheerful
hearts and willing hands to this
noble cause.

Life Insurance

We are glad to read the fol-
lowing, which appeared in the
Nashville Banner of the 25tb
1t denotes a beginning in the
right direction, and ought to be
pursued unialteringly until the
whole management of the Nash
vile Life is exposed TO public
view. If fraud has been COM
mltted, let it be unearthed and
ITS perpetrators brought to JUS
t'cc. And simultaneously with
tins movement ought to be one
to repeal the law "superintend-
ing insurance companies, to
prevent them from carrying on
business after their have be-
come insolvent. The public
would, probably, lose less mon
ey il there were no State SUI
pervision, which gives them a
false sense of security. A State
commissioner of superinten-
dence and examination is worse
than useless when he does less
than his full duty, as, in the
eyes of many people, the State
Endorses any institution which
its officer fails to report to be in
solvent, until everybody knows
the fact; and they do not, there
fore, make that personal exam
ination of It's affairs which they
would otherwise be compelled
TO make.
For the foregoing, as well as
other reasons that have been
advanced in this paper, we note
the following with pleasure, and
hope that there will be no abate-
ment in the prosecution

Mr.. ~. O. Wallace-The
general health is tolerably good,
though some chills and fever.
Times peaceably enough. Sor-
ghum machines are in opera
ton and molasscs will likely be
the currency this fall. Green
back is almost as scarce as hem
teeth, so it is fine thing to
have some substitute. Our
land grows sorghum finely. Va
cant land is being entered and
settled up considerably. I'M
proved land can be bought at
low figures. Our country like
others has some good land and
a good deal not so good, and
like many others has many ad-
vantages and disadvantages. A
poor home is better than rich
land rented. We would like
to have some more Tennessee
neighbors. Our society is toll
erably good. Preaching regu-
larly and well attended. Our
public school system is being
improved. We are having very
good schools though too short.
Some are closing out for this
season. Our crops are rather
light, owing to the dry weather
in May and July. x
