Mrs. Hennegan, truly estimablt
and worthy lady of this city, feeling
thankful for the aid rendered her by the
Towards last year when the dreadful
scourge was making sad havoc in ouI
city and causing so mach distress and
suffering in almost every household,
was determined to show her gratitude
by doing all she could for the aid Of the
suffering and sorely afflicted people OF
Memphis. Being the possessor of a
handsome quilt this noble lady,
although in moderate circumstances,
put the quilt up for rattle, thereby rails
ing thirty dollars in cash. This amount
she turned over to the Rev. Father
Oberfield, the Priest in charge of the
Catholic congregation of this city, to
be sent by him to Memphis, for the
relief OF the orphans of that sorrowing
city. This is noble deed, and it gives
us much pleasure to note the fact, and
this act of generosity and appreciation
is well worthy of imitation by people
who are abundantly supplied with this
worlds woods, and at the same time
were the recipients of the same kind
ness which was shown Mrs. Hennegan
during the devasting epidemic of last
year, and which prompted this noble
act. Our citizens have ample oppor
tunity afforded them to initiate Mrs.
Hennegan's example. though none ac-
cording to means and principal which
caused this contribution, can surpass it.

One Eye Always Drank

An Alleghaney physician, who, in
his way, is great wag, tells story of
north side gentleman who for years
has suffered from what in medical par
lance is known as superorbital neural
gia. Quinine proved of no effect, and
the sufferer was almost crazed with
pain. A kind hearted old lady living
in the neigborhood of the patient in
formed him that if he would cut the
affected nerve with pair of scissors OIL
knife, it would give him no further
trouble. 1t so happens that the super.
orbital nerve is the one which controls
the action of the eyelid, and it further
happens that when a man is in liquor
this nerve becomes paralyzed, and it is
this that gives a drunken person such a
comical expression about the eyes.
The neuralgia patient no sooner heard
what he supposed the welcome news
from the old lady, than he repaired to
his closet and with a jack-knife parted
in twain tue offending nerve, and he
now greets his friends with his right
eye as sober as Quaker in quarterly
meeting, and the left in highly in
toxicated condition. 1t now only costs
half as much as it formerly did to go
on bender.
