The Milan exchange. (Milan, Gibson County, Tenn.) 1874-1978, 1880-07-29

A lady called at a store on Winter
Street, the other day, and inquired of a
polite salesman who was measuring
fringe: "Doyou keep buttons?" sop
posite, madame, if you please" said
he, as he paused in his work, and
showed a row of very white teeth. To
his dismay she walked deliberately out
of the door and crossed the street to a
rival establishment. The young man
did not lose his situation, but he got a
blowing up that made him think Fourth
of July had come again with even more
than its wonted explOsiveness. When
any body asks for buttons now, he bars
the passage to the door with his yard
stick, and points energetically while he
exclaims, "Opposite counter!" with q
special emphasis on the last word. He
is determined not to be caught again at
the game of button, button, who's got
the button, or to suffer from counter
mOvement.-BOSt Courier.

On the slopes of the volcano of San
Salvador, in Central America, exists a
curious intermittent spring. tits known
to the natives of the country as the Bio
Huido, or fugitive river. During seven
consecutive years sufficient water flows
from it to form veritable river, when,
at fixed time, the water suddenly dis
appears, and the bed of the river be-
comes dry and dusty. At the end of an
other period of seven years the water
again commences to flow from the
spring. A period of flow covered the
years from 1866 to 1873, and WAS sue
ceeded by period of dryness from 1873
to 1880. In January of this year the
water promptly reappeared. The phe-
nomenon is not new, but the length OF
the period of intermittence and its regu-
larity are remarkable in the present in
stance.

Enthusiastic in its Favor.

All housekeepers who have ever used the
CHARTER OAK STOVE are enthusiastic in its
favor, and say that for all purposes of cook
ing and baking this stove can not be equaled
The large hues and heavy castings, exposed
to the fire, make the CHARTER OAK especially
adapted to our soft coal, which is destruct-
i've to cast-irOn. The Reservoir is pro-
nounced perfect in its arrangement and
operation, heating water just right.

Some ten miles to the northward

is covered and filed with agates. The
rough agates are in the form Of geodes

DRINKING DLooD.-It is said that
between two hundred and three hun
dred men and women of St. Louis
drink daily from half to a pint of
blood piping hot from the veins of
slaughtered cattle. More blood
drinking by consumptives and aged
persons is done in September and
October than during the remainder
of the year. The blood of young
steers is the best, and should be
caught as it comes from the animal,
and should be drunk while the foam
is still on and the steam rising.
Consumptives are advised, in addi-
ton to drinkin. the block, to sit in a
slaughter-honse for a couple of hours
each day at killing time to inhale the
"steam" of the running blood.

My DEAR FE.rHD:-1our Litter
Just received. The quest;'i YOU
ask in regard to the Presiden; cam
didate intenl TO vote for at - en-
suing election, is Of too li',4 m
portance to spend much time n The
discussion of it. You ale entitled,
however, to a courteous reply, and,
as I have nothing to disguise, my
position can be briefly stated.
I have made no public announce
ment of my purpose, but do not
hesitate to say publicly as l have al
readv said privately, that intend
to vote for General Hancock, because
l believe it will be better for the
whole country that he should be
elected than any other candidate IN
the field.

according 10 my own sense of right.
have diyes.ed myself so far as posi-.
sible OF all Partisan prejudice and
self restraint, and froui watching the
political tendencies OF the times and
the relations of parties and candi-
dates TO them, have been slowly yet
irresistibly forced to he conclusion
that the country will be benefited
LA change, as there seems to be
~ nther hope of reforming methods
o: administration.
Furthermore, the political doc
ti1tS set IOTlu III tile DciuOCihbit
'l'f"rm are nearer in accord with
~, Ideas of desirable governmental
policy than are the doctrines an
nounced in the Republican platform,
and l am willing TO trust to sol
dier's honor to carry ''em into effect.
OF course I do not expect to find
perfect condition Of things III any
human organization. Human ma
ture is about the same i'll al classes,
ranks and parties. But l do not
think that any party hong in unin-
terrupted control OF State or Nation
will surely come to love the abuses
of power so strongly, and will cling
to them SO tenaciously as to prevent
the possibility of reform.
I regret the severance pleasar.t
associations with old personal and
political friends, but must be gov
erned by my own judgment of what
is right and expedient. I aw, how
ever SO completely relegated to priv
ate life TINT / can act, even in poll
tics, "with malice toward none and
charity for ALL"
