HOW a TRAMP GOT, HIS SUPPER
From Nashville Banner.

| FROM Nashville Banner.
A man from Lebanon, who had
been in the city for several days
baviugla little fun, dropped into a
Cherry street restaurant light to get
his supper. He was dead broke, the
whiskey had died out of him and the
proprietor of the hashery would
neither credit him for a superior a
drink, both of which he stood greatly
10 need of, Finding that his appeals
were of no avail, be sat down to re-
fleet An inebriated Nashville man
came in directly and ordered an elab-
crate supper. While the meal was
being prepared the Nashville man
folded his arms on the table, gently
placed his head upon his arms, and
was soon sound asleep. His snoring
soon attracted the attention of the
Lebanon man, and he peered cauti-
ously around. The proprietor was
looking the other way. At that mo
ment the waiter appeared with;the
Nashville mans supper and placed
it before him on the table and re-
tired to tbs rear. The Nashville
man continued to snore. The Leba>
non man saw his opportunity. He
arose moved around the Nashville
mans table and proceeded to de-
YOUR the viands spread out before
him. The Nashville man slept on.
When he had finished, the Lebanon
man moved to his former seat. As
he did so be caught the proprietor's
eye, who had been a silent spectator
of the scene. The Lebanon man
winked his left eye and then his
right. The proprietor winked both
CT his eyes. The Nashville man
awoke with snort and looked about
him. The supper he had ordered
was gone. Nothing but the bare
dishes and little pile of fish bones
remained. He remarked We'll,
I'll be id l guess | ate the sup
per, but have no recollection of it.
OF course | ate it; if | didn't eat it,
who didR Nobody. But it's the first
time | ever ate anything and didn't
feel the effects of it, With this he
arose, paid the bilI-Sl- and passed
out. The Lebanon man looked at
the proprietor and winked. The
proprietor looked at Lebanon man
aud winked. The Lebanon man
said: 'How's that z The proprie
tor said: Cheeky Then both
winked again and the Lebanon man
went out wiping his mouth on his
coat tail.

IMAGINATION 1t is impossible for
human beings to be cheerful at all
times Indeed, we are SO constitute
ed that it seems as though we must
have something to be wretched
about. If our actual circumstances
do not admit of this consummation,
then our life is a world of imaginary
evils, and we weep as though we had
real sorrow. Instead of taking a
bright and cheering view, we seem
never to be quite happy unless we
have an opportunity to put on an 'if'
or a but 10 somewhere. We always
keep al eye out for storm cloud
and make ourselves unhappy over
the possibility of its coming, wheth-
er it actually comes or not We

was so weak that could only walk
half around and then back again" If
he had only thought minute, he
would have discovered that to walk
half way around and thee back again
was Just as far as to walk all the
way round. The best way to live is
to live as we'll as you can, and the
only way to take care of the future
is to let it take care of itself

A UNION OF INTEREST.

Renewed prosperity at the South
means increased business enlarge>
ments at the North. The two Sec
tions are so intimately blended to-
gether that when one is advancing
in commercial activity, the other
feels it's stimulating effect. New
York is now deriving a great bene~
fit from Southern trade. The mer>
chants from that section fill the no.
tells, crowd the large jobbing estab
lishments of miscellaneous merchan-
disc, and materially add to the bus
tie and business life of our stores,
streets, and wharves. The direct
trade of this metropolis with the
South is larger now than at any PEI
Rod since the 1857. Merchants
from all that region buy chiefly for
cash, or very short credit, and are
considered as well able to pay as
from any portion of the country. To
men of small capital the South offers
unusual facilities in almost every
line of business. 1t is blessed with
a genial climate, fertile soil, has
great resources in coal, iron, gold.
and other minerals, and is now ia
king on growth unparalleled in all
its previous history.-United States
Economist.

A DELIGHTFUL EPOCH,

For six months before marriage a
woman is perfectly happy. She has
love newly awakened daily growing
as the weeks roll on. She is looked
upon at home as a much more inn
portant person than any of the other
daughters. She enjoys all the free-
dom of married woman, while re~
sponsible for none OF married wo-
mans duties. She is acknowledged
almost an equal by her father and
mother. She is from under the CON-
troll OF father and mother, and not
under the control of her future hus.
band. She enjoys for the first time
the intimate confidence of man,
who treats her as a superior, and
who defers to her. She, for the first
time, catches a glimpse of disposiDg
of en- income, and having her indi-
vidual taste held paramount For
the first time she feels she has life
long stake in the career of man.
And under all and over all, and
around all, is her love for him.

THE REASON WHY.

DR. FELTON, made a strong Han
cock speech at Ringgold when he
spoke there. Afterward, at LaFay>
cite, he made a non>committal
speech, leaving the people in doubt
as to whether be was for Hancock or
Garfield. Rev. A. |. Lett, of Catoo-
sa, friend and supporter of Felt-
on's, on being asked the cause of the
difference of the two speeches, told
the gentleman asking that a commits
tee of Republicans had waited on
DR.. Felton, after his Ringgold speech
and told him that he could not get
their support if he spoke that way.
Consequently at Lafayette, FELTON,
was particular not to come out
for Hancock and English.
And that's the sort of demagogue
FELTON, is.-Ronse Courier.
