The new railroad will be finished
from Arnot to the tannery early next
spring. The main track will pass
through the stock house, and the raw
hides will be unloaded from either
side of the cars into the store rooms.
Upon switch the bark which is
brought in by the new road will be
unloaded at the bark mill. A serpen-
tine track will be laid among the bark
piles in the yard, and the work of get
ting the bark to the mills will be
made comparatively easy by using
truck ears drawn by horses.
A well has just been drilled at the
new tannery something over 200 feet
iR depth, and its capacity seems TO be
ample for the supply of the establish
ment. The water is raised by large
steam pump.
Over two hundred workmen are EN-
ployed in and about the new tannery.

remnernnce ResoIntIOns.

The temperance convention,
which met recently in Nashville,
adopted the following resolutions :
Resolved, That it IS the duty OF
every citizen to secure all persons
from the habit of intemperance and
To save them when practicable.
Resolved, That il is the duty OF
members of Temperance associations
to aid in enforcing all laws now in
existence for the regulation, repres-
sion and prohibition of the liquor
traffic, not only in regard to the
collection of taxes, but laws prohib-
iting the sale of liquor to minors,
on Sunday, and ut elections, and
the sale within four miles of incor-
pOrated institutions of learning, and
that citizens should organize them
selves into bodies for that purpose,
holding to the enforcement of penal
laws by and through the courts,
and against all mob law and ViO-
lence.
Resolved, That such associations
suggest defects in the laws which
permit the escape of parties viola
ting such laws from punishment,
and that the remedy should be civil
as we'll us criminal.
Resolved, That the law should
be SO framed by the legislature as
to parish those who buy in viola
ton of law as well as those who sell
in violation of law.
Resolved, That the destructive
influences of the liquor traffic
should be taught in the public
schools of the state as a part of the
common school education.
Resolved, That we favor prohi-
bitiOn by constitutional amend
ment, as the mode of all Others
most effective and permanent, and
favor submission of the question
to the people by separate provis-
ion disconnected with all other
questions.
Resolved, That, in the absence
of constitutional amendment. we
are in favor of prohibition by legis-
lative acts, such as local option
laws and all other measures tending
to suppress the great evils of inteni-
perance, pauperism and crime.

APresidemt's wife.

Mrs. Polk, the wife of the elev-
enth president of the United States,
is a lady and a christian. \ quiet
dignity marked her administration
of the White house. At the social
parties over which she presided,
dancing was not permitted. Being
a strict Presbyterian she looked
upon it as one of "the vanities of
the world" which Christians should
renounce. Two anecdotes, told by
Mr.. Parr, the wellknOwn Washing
ton correspondent, illustrate her
character.
81 have many books presented to

morning to a lady who found her
reading. 81 try 10 read them all.

Rules for Living.

l am no doctor, quack or pill
Vender, yet l have had a pretty
good long life, and a happy one.
Nav | not, therefore. give my
simple rules for health, in hopes
some poor traveller on the up or
down hill of life may look at them
and perhaps be benefited by them?
/ had practiced them for many
years, and they have done me good;
perhaps they may do good to
others.
They are inexpensive, and may
be easily abandoned if they cause
any harm.
Keep i'm the sunlight just as much
as possible. A plant will not thrive
without the sunbeam, much less a
man.
Breathe as much fresh air as your
business will permit. This makes
fresh blood but it will never be
found within the four walls of your
building.
Beneath the open sky, just there
it comes to you.
BE strictly temperate. You can
not break organic law or any other
law with IMMUNITY.
Keep the feet always warm and
head cool. Disease and death be-
gin at the feet more commonly than
we think.
If out of order, see which of the
above rules you have not observed,
then rub yourself all over with a
towel, saturated with salt water,
well dried, and begin on the rules
again.
Look ever on the bright side,
which is the heaven side of life.
This is far better than any medi-
cine.
These seven simple rules, good
for the valid or the invalid, If right
fully observed, would save, | APP
prehend, a deal of pain, prO?Onging
your life, and so lar as health goes,
make it worth having.
