The English Queen, in a exhortation
to English ladies on the importance of a
knowledge of housekeeping, speaks of
Americans, saying; mo one can deny
that, as rule, they are pleasant to the
eyes, and certainly do not usually sin in
the way of neglecting their personal
adornment or in taking their full share
in the pleasures aud daintinesses of this
life; yet when the necessity arises, we
have the warrant of those who have
travelled and lived in America for be-
lieVing that they can hold their own as
useful members Of the households of
which they are also the ornaments"

THE SITUA TON AT MEMPHIS.

Clnclnnau enquirer
The following extracts from private
letter, written by gentleman high in
authority at the Memphis Camp, will be
found interesting:
n "Our own people abroad have
done more to impede the contributions
from abroad than any one on the inside.
They talk of the extravagances Of 1873,
the filthy condition of the city, the want
of proper sanitation, etc. No
man knows if this plague comes from
the earth beneath or the heavens above.
The population of this city who violates
every law of health and hygiene grow
fat and defiant; death enters the neat
cottage of the mechanic and clerk, the
dwelling of the merchant, the palace of
the rich. Now what say you in response
| TO our Memphis crosker? He lent neith-
| er hand nor purse on his return home.
He, like the struggling soldier on the day
| of battle who smelt the contest from afar
off, never tired of criticising the Gener-
al We have made up our minds to
| confine our appeals to our own citizens
and the people of Tennessee, neither
have responded, and unless aid comes
we will have no means to go on after the
| first of October.
| We have now in camp (and we feed
no others) 1926 women and children.
They must be fed. They are the wards
of the Committee of Safety, and were
sent in order to stay the progress of the
disease in the infected region, as well as
to save human life. Depopulation has
provided the only effectual means YET
developed. This Memphis
plague is so far unknowable, and thai
man who, after diligently pursuing &
theory, satisfies his mind that he la:
solved the mystery, had best die easily
else he may live to experience the morti
fication OF being made the butt of hi
fellows and the laughing stock of thu
Ohio or any other State to help us, but
as old Abe Lincoln once said, eff WI
find little contributed unbeknown, WI
won't refuse"

g SOME SINS DO BEAR THEIR
PRIVTL EGE"
Isan Antonia Herald.l

- When the poor girl was dying
last night his was kind heart who said
" Mollie, you are getting well, / know
it." He knew that he was deceiving
her, but why say, when she looked with
imploring eyes at him, you are bound
to die" when it would have been a
thrust into the sinking heart. The lie
gave her comfort, and In the memories
of those present and who heard it it will
be song echoing down the dusty way
of life, for the woman smiled when she
heard it. Clinging as consumptives al-
ways do to hope, she believed she WAS
better, and so she was, for the end was
very near, and the ministers Of death
were whispering af the door And she
is better now as she lies with crossed
hands and her beautiful eyes closed for
ever.

So much has been written in regard to

So much has been written in regard to
the value of advertising that the public,
particularly the business community,
have become nauseated with the i'm
mense doses of advice in connection with
keeping the world acquainted with their
business. However, few words of wis
dom IN reference to the subject may not
be inappropriate at the present time,
when the busy season is at our doors.
We will specially consider the art of
advertising in private pursuits, where it
is intended to be done wisely. In some
classes of business, continuous liberal
advertising is profitable; but they are
the fewest of the number; and in all eff
forts to present business to the favorable
consideration of the public FRESHNESS is
as indispensable as it is in the reading
columns of an enterprising newspaper.
Just when to advertise and how to adj
vertise are problems that few have sue
cessfully solved, and the result is that
very many waste money on parsimoui-
Gus advertising, looking mainly to its
cheapness on the face Of the newspaper
bills, while few are proffiigate by in
discriminate advertising, expecting graf
flying results solely because of the mag
nitude Of the bills they pay for the same;
DIR. Helmbold made and wasted q Co
lossal fortune by advertising, and Bon
ner made the most valuable weekly
property in the country, by
taking possession of whole pages Of the |
most costly journals when he could best |
promote his business thereby, and then |
1udicously econOmising In advertising |
when il was no longer necessary.

The western farmers are netl
"Watches and
"W ats.

The western farmers are netting
a dollor a bushel for their wheat
an advance within a month of fully
twenty cents; and it is estimated
that if present prices hold through
the year it will put at least $4,000,
900 into the pockets of the farmers
more than they would have received
at the prices Of last month. A re-
action is, however, apprehended,
more probably on the account of the
immense receipts than anything
else. The farmer has not been in
the habit of exchanging bushels of
wheat and dollars on even terms in
the fall months. and he therefore
lacks confidence in ruling prices.

NASHVILLE, Sept. 25.-A terrible ira
gedy occurred opposite The Lee Tucker
farm, on Stewart Creek, II miles above
Smyrna, yesterday morning. A negro
boy, named Jim Cartwright, aged IS
years, had, by his father, been taken out
of a livery stable to his home TO assist
him on his farm. The boy became stub
horn and refused to work. No persua-
sion could induce him to do any labor.
They started out together yesterday
morning on the turnpike. The father
urged that the boy should not be Glazing
about the farm, and insisted that he
should go to work Hot words were
passed, the son grew enraged and at last,
in a burst of passion, pulled out his knife
and thrust the blade into his fathers
heart, killing him instantly. The pari
eide then fed and is still at large.

THIS YEARS TEXAN CATTLE
DRlvE.- Stock raisers and drovers
10 and about San Aotonio, Texas,
almost unanimously unite on an es
innate of 175, 900 to 100000 head
as the number of this years cattle-
drive from Texas. The first num-
Der is considered the lowest, and the
last the greatest that can be expect
ed. The largest proportion of the
drive will be yearlings and two-
odds: Prices are considered
high, but holders are firm. The
margin in the cattle driving bust
meas is considered so close that buy
ers hesitate before they close con
tract, and according to Texas, ex-
change, profits are estimated by
cents almost where they were form-
erly calculated by dollarc. The
San Antonio Express says that cat
tie in Western Texas are scarce and,
with the little profit now made, there
are many advocates for stopping the
drive entirely for few years in or
der to restock the country ard
thereby reduce the supply, and con-
sequently increase the demand al
the North.

INCREASE IN THE VALUE or
STRAW. In discussing the profits of
wheat growing no one appears to
have observed that the grain itself
represents but one>half of the pros
duce the other half--the straw
has been omitted from the calculaN
ton. Now, it is a fact that while
wheat has been declining for years,
the price of straw has been rising,
until latterly, 10 some counties the
straw has actually become the more
important of the two The demand
for straw as litter, for fodder to mix
with other foods and for manufacture
ing purposes outside of agriculture,
has so increased that sometimes
there is positive scarcity even in
rural districts. Some farmers only
grow grain because they want the
straw for their cattle and as an ad
iunct in the production of meat, the
value of the straw must be borne in
mind. Hence, to the value of the
grain must hereafter be added the
price of the straw.
