HOME NOTES.

MR. EDIToR: I notice in "Norris- town Notes" by Uncle Jesse, some good sensible remarks about correspondents from different neighborhoods writing so much nonsense about the boys and girls, etc. l have often noticed with disgust the blind, nonsensical slang phrases and blagard of correspondents which only two or three individuals understood anything about, while the mass of the intelligent readers of the DEMOCRAT demand something more of intelligence and general news from the different neighborhoods in the county, and care nothing about the Tomfoolery of the boys and girls, and older ones, too, which had better be kept at home where it is understood and enjoyed, and not send it abroad. We really hope that every correspondent will do his very best to give the general news, and that which will be of interest to all of the readers of the DEMOCRAT; and thereby improve the general moral tone or our county paper
 The weather is very fine which makes business very dull in town, except on Saturday. The credit merchant is very busy paying for cotton which is now being scraped. This is all wrong. We thought farmers were generally up with their work, but on close eXamina- ton find that two-thirds of them are nearly year ahead. It is q good plan to push business, but for the farmer to push his business so far ahead is very poor policy. Another sore evil l have seen existing in our midst, which is a great dctrimcnt to the prosperity of many of our farmers; that is, men who have mortgaged all they have to the merchant for their bread, meat and clothes, then if they get few dimes in their pockets will go and spend them for liquor at the saloon; for the saloon does cash business, gives no credit, and takes no mortgages. It is ''pay as you drink or no drink" Now if the merchant should say to them ''pay as you eat or no eat," he would be brand ed as hard-hearted, unkind wretch; but this is exactly what hundreds are doing, and it is a grand imposition and abuse to the man who is furnishing him with the necessaries of life. Men should not complain of hard times who will act Tn that way. Every man in the community helps to make the times just what they are. Oh, that men could sec the evil of some of their ways

 We are indebted to Prof. Phillips for his labor in our midst as music teacher, knowing it to be very beneficial to so- ciety; iudeed were it not for the sweet and melting strains of music many scenes of mirth and festivity would lose all their charm. Music formed one of the prominent amusements of the ancient Hebrews. They sung every where and mingled melody with joy or sorrow. The royal David with his chief musicians made ceaseless song and Solomon, his son, the wisest man of his age, had men singers and women singers, and Josephus tells us that the number of musicians employed by him at the dedication of the Temple was two hundred thousand; the Greeks and Romans had their songs, and frequent ly when they went out to battle it was with the sound of melody, and She poet says,

Will Strawberries Pay.

MR. EDITOR: l thought l would give the readers of the DEMOCRAT few facts and figures on what strawberries have done for me this season. l have bed in my garden 40 feet square, of two varieties, the Kentucky Late, and the Charles Downing; from this bed we have picked lG0 quarts of very large and fine berries. This would be at the rate of 4,350 quarts to the acre, or 130 bushels and 30 quarts, or l,0S716 gal Ions at 50 cents per gallon, which sold at, would amount to the neat little sum of $543.50; allowing 20 cents per gallon for cultivation and picking, which is a high estimate, and you have the neat little sum of $326.l0 net pro- ceeds from one acre of land.
 1t has been question with great many whether strawberry culture would pay in Arkansas; with me it has never been doubt, and l think the above figures have proven 1t. All it requires is knowledge of the culture, and hard work, NJ. B. ROYS.

SCOTTyILE NEWS.

| pCOITNlLlb, hay ~, loso'
 MR. EDITOR: Seeing but little news in your valuable paper from this place except from and to MT. J. S., thought | l would give your many readers hint concerning our people and country. Crops are good with but few excep- tions. I presume the farmers are all up with their crops from the number that were seen spending last Saturday evening so pleasantly in Scottville. We heard a very interesting sermon from the preacher in charge of the Dover circuit, A collection was taken for foreign missions.
 We have marble worker in Scott vile who is doing much work and giv- ing universal satisfaction. He has sold some work in and around Dover and intends to work at that place short time and if the people in Russellyille will give him employment he will probably spend few weeks with them. He is doing as good work and selling much cheaper than any one, and as times are hard few dollars is con siderable item.
 A serious accident happened to MT. Jefferson Bullock's youngest son last Tuesday while on his way to the field riding very gentle mule, q singletree dropped off the names and hung on one of lhe bridle reins; this frightened the animal so he began jumping and rum ming, kicking at the searey thing; at last the boy was thrown, his feet being tangled in the chains he was dragged about two hundred yards and tossed against a tree with such force as to break the hame-string ard set him free. But for this he would have been torn to atoms. He was in state of insensibil- ity for four days, but the last news was that he could talk in his right mind and would doubtless recover.
 Fearing that you and your many readers will become disgusted at the length and bad composition of this note l will close for the present. Yours,

There is but one remedy known that will remedy all these conditions at the samo time and without producing any unpleasant effects, and that article is known as Days Ague Tonic, which never fails to make prompt and permanent cures without the use of any other drug.

The Latest Invention in Useful
 Uostscnold Articles.

Within the last few years there has been expended greatdeal of Inventive thought and genius upon what may properly be ciassed as household artl- cles, the most noted result of which arc the production of the sewing nacline, the wringer, the waslliug machine, the .carpe0 sweeper, dc. Almost every weel. we chronicle the advent ot some new invention by which the cares and labors of housekeeping afe lcsseneds and wonnan's work matic easier.
 The newest thing to challenge our attention and glaiden tho heart of the housekeeper, is, what is called the Novelty Brush Holder, Carpet stretchcr and Sweennr rafy simple contri90nuc i;s.,.ssiiJ,ti Go firmly hold in position any kind of a brush or duster; paving aii extension handle tbat enables one to wash or dust windows, walls or ceilings without the aid of g step laddeg. That is one of it's eonVeniences, and IS also one of the best carpet swcepers in the market, h.,isiltg the brush firmly an angle. 1t cleans the carpet thoroughly, raises no dust and does not wear the carpet like the ordinary broom or brush and will outwear dozen brooms. As q handle for the scrubbing brush it is the best device ever made, no more kneeling on the floor, no more back aches or sore fingers.
 As q carpet stretcher alone it is worth it's cost, as . carpet of any size can be laid evenly without any of the labor and yexation usually attending such work. It is strong, simple, thoroughly made, cannot get out of order, has no screws, lever or hinges, is compact, cheap and durable.
 It is manufactured by Brown x Co.,, Cincinnati, the well known manhfac- turers of useful household articles, and is sold only by their agents to house. keepers. The real utility of this article will at once be seen by those most in- terested. and we predict for it large sale. Every housekeeper ill the land will want one.
 Any reliable lady or gentleman wish ing rennIneratiye employment, would do well to secure the agency for this county, which can be done by enclosing a stamp for descriptive circular and terms, to BROWN S5 CO,
