II. Much Of that sort of news which de-
pends less upon it's recognised importance

that the Government wbioh the Constitution

A Live Paper.

The attention of the reading public Is
invited to The Morning World, daily
and the Weekly World, Nashville, Tenn.
It's columns are fresh and newsy, every
department being fully up to the stand
ard of a progressive newspaper. Its
telegraphic dispatches are complete and
reliable. The market reports are COM
prehensiVe and accurate; the local news
fresh and spicy. It condemns fraud
and corruption, and is fearless in de-
nouncing vice OF every description. In
short, il is newspaper alive TO every
interest of Nashville, the state Of Ten
nessee and the country At large.
The future has in store matters OF
grave import for the veal of Tennessee
Among the many interests is the one Of
the state debt-the most important ques-
sion in Tennessee politics that has yet
arisen. Ii Is to the best interest Of the
state that the matter be settled upon a
(air and honorable basis, alike just 70
the state and her creditors, and there
10y be forever eliminated from the can
vass a. disOrganiziDg question. On
this important question The World
takes a positive stand against the 1908
bill, believing II will not stand, and that
Sod would be a far more acceptable set
tlemeht to the people, and better for the
bondholder. Its articles on this subject
will be able and readable. The weekly
viii be issued on the 10Th inst, and we
are now ready for subscribers; terms,
81 90 per year. Daily, $3.50 per year.
Active agents wanted in every county
In the state.

The Question Of Sanity

To the editor of the Democrat:
| doubt III there exists on earth to-
day q perfectly sane human being
The peculiarity of lunacy is to suppose
that you are sane. | sometimes fancy
that am sane, which leads me at times
to think may not be. Poor Nat Lee
said the world thought he was crazy,
while he KNEW the world was crazy.
But the world outnumbered, and locked
him up.
AS a rule it is a dangerous thing to
be entirely sane and have 1t found out.
Socrates was sane man, aud they bled
him to death.
Jesus Christ was perfectly sane. We
all know His sad fate.
When Servetus exhibited evidence of
sanity Calvin caused him to be burned
at tho stake.
Look around and select enc whose
mind is perfectly sound. "That elegant
lady who Just passed by us, surely she
is not insane?" She is as mad as q
March hare. Did you notice that dia-
mond on her breast? 1t cost thousand
dollars. She is made happy by the envy
or admiration of fools. Her sisters
children 90 barefOoted. The lunatic
knows it well and looks on smiling.
''There's Jones; he's not crazy, is
hep" Tell him so, and he will laugh in
your face" A perfect madman utterly
sonlless! He is worth over million OF
dollars. The demon of avaries possess
es him. After our late war, his sister,
a widow with children, borrowed $4,000
from him to carry on her plantation,
giving him a mortgage on the place.
When the note fell due he sold her out
of house and home, and actually placed
her and her family on the roadside.
(This is not an imaginary case.) Would
a sane man DO thatY The wretch is
money-mad.
There is no end to the forms OF mad
ness it takes many shapes. The grad
ual tendency of the mind, however, is
toward sanity. Ignorance and super
stition, for some unknown cause, tries
TO block the way; but every hundred
years develops its growth in spite of the
devil. Perhaps a thousand years hence
it may attain to maturity, when the
long-looked for millennium will be
reached; one more divine spirit behold
the light and take its place amid the
planets. j. ID. L.
