The Nerves as a Source Of Trial.

Instead of being a vehicle for agreeable
sensations some peoples nerves are most
distressing endowment. Such sufferers, it
will usually be found, are dyspeptic, lack
vitality and flesh. What they need is more
vigor. There is means of obtaining it, if
they will but avail themselves of that
means 1t is Hostetter's Bitters, a tonic
which experience has shown to be of the
utmost service to the debilitated, nervous
and dyspeptic. Digestion restored upon a
a permanent basis by the Bitters ministers
as it should to the wants of the system, and
its integral parts, of which the nerves are
one of the most important, are properly
nourished and invigorated. The various
functions are thus more actively discharged,
and obstacles to return to health removed
by increasing vitality. Instead of nervous
prostration, new strength and vitality will
be infused into the whole motive ma
chinery. . f., s4. ..t a'5.

Knoxville Republican,


Among the many notable events which
transpired in the early settling of Graves.
ton, there is none so brave and dauntlese
as the one performed by the noble he
roine, Mrs. Mann. .u
On the night of the 25th of May, 1895,
Mr.. George Mann, who lived in one mile
of this place, heard a noise at his stable,
and leaving his house to discover the
cause, his approach was intercepted by
Indians, who fired upon and dangerously
wounded him. He fled, for concealment,
to a cave short distance. but was fol
lowed by the savages, dragged from his
hiding place and slain.
His wife had heard the retreating foot
steps of the Indians as they pursued her
husband, and, having locked the door,
sat in silent expectation, with her sleep
ing children around her. Soon she heard
the tramp Of approaching feet. Perhaps
it is the neighbors, alarmed at the firing,
and coming to the rescue. She is about
to rush out and meet them; but she
hears their voices in a strange tongue.
The horrible conviction seizes her that
the savages are returning to the slaugh-
ter. The rifle is instantly in her hands.
That morning she had learned the use
Of its triggers, and leveling it carefully
at the crevce of the door, near the lock,
she waits the result. Stealthy steps are
moving along the wall; the door is pressed
against; it yields; ispartly open; savage
is on his hands and knees at the entrance,
another behind, and still another. Her
fingers are upon the trigger; she thinks of
her children and firesl The first Indian
falls heavily to the ground, the second
screams with pain, the Others gather up
the wounded and fly.
That lone woman, by her courage and
presence of mind, had repulsed twenty
five savage warriors. The Indians after
wards SAID had word escaped her lips
after the explosion of the rifle, they
would have slain her and her children
also. The perfect silence impressed the
Indians, and believing armed men to be
in the house they fed. wy
This cave, upon direct line, is said to
be twelve miles northeast of Knoxville,
and is now owned by j. G. Campbell,
Esq, but still bears the name Of Mann's
Cave. .''

anxiety, "is there any hopeY

"Oh, l want to marry him."

"Yes; you see if I marry him and he

Powders on my race-horses and found them give
perfect satisfaction. In fact, they have never
failed to cure any ailment for which they were
used; the Linimelit. when rubbed in by the hand,
never blisters or takes the hair off; it has more
penetrative qualities than any other have tried

An Endorsement.

MEssRs. EDITORS: | want to say in
your paper that l fully accord with that
dear "Lady Reformer," who wrote that
verv sensible article about kissing in your
issue of a few weeks ago. [ fully endorse
everything she says on the subject, and
this is the one sentiment among all my
lady friends. We have been talking
about the letter ever since it was print
ed, and I take this method of thanking
your charming correspondent for all she
has said about the matter. Myself and
many other ladies' are willing to join
her in the formation Of society for
the prevention of promiscuous kissing
among our own sex. There is no need
whatever to discuss kissing in any Other
character than the one alluded to. for
we do not see any need of reform in
other directions. The custom generally
regulates itself very properly in every
other way, except IN the matter that
now claims our attention. II "Lady
Rrformrr" will commence the move
ment, she will find an anxillirry in

National Complaint.

Dyspepsia Is the ma iona complaint. Almost
every man or woman you meet has it, and the
result is that the number Of pseudo-remedies
for it is rs numerous Us Pharaohs host. They
are for the most part worthless. There is, how
ever. searching eradlcant Of this distressing
and obdurate malady, one whose genuine merits
long since raised it to a foremost place among
the staple medicines Of America. Hostetter's
Stomach Btters extrpates dyspepsia with great
er certainty and promptiiude than any known
remedy and is a most genial invgorant appeti-
zer and aid to secretion. These are not empty
assertions, as thousands Of our cor ntrymen and
women who have experienced its effects are
aware, but are backed up by irrefragible proofs
repeatedly laid before the public. The Bltters
also promote regular habit OF body and give
healthful stimulus to the urinary organs.

hands in cleaning out the drain be-
tween York and Boundary streets,
have thrown the sod on part Of the

because we heard some ladies COM

we have been prompted to speak OF
it. When new earth is thrown on

This neighborhood will owe
To YOU, dear madam and sweet friend,
A lasting debt of gratitude that generates,
But knows no end,
For you, o stranger from distant land,
Became the leader Of this youthful band.
Though we've trod the emerald sod,
Through your kind care and anxious prayer
We are children of Almighty God.
As YOU kneel at the altar of our Savior dear
And ask for the erring his tender care,
May you feel as you kneel, by angels at
tended,
That your prayer and loving cares arc re-
warded.
May you ever bloom like beautiful rose
Till life's checkered page shall close,
And then legend full of love and truth
Leave to and for the faltering steps of youth.

COMPLETION OF A GREAT WORK.

surprise 10 reading people. 1t was gene
rally supposed to be an undertaking i'm
possible of accomplishment, except at great
loss of money, and many who knew the ex-

that they had undertaken too much, and
would never be able to complete the work.
But it seems they knew their ground.
They have not only fulfilled their promise
to the public, but by undertaking and nc
compliShing something so extraordinary,
have attracted the attention Of almost the
entire reading community, to themselves
and their various literary enterprises, and
have secured n sale for the work itself be-
yond precedent in the history of booksell-
ing, and so great that it IS really remune-
rative. This month, with view to extend
ing the sale as greatly as possible, they

They then resumed their innocent
