Our Material interests.

We copy an article from the Ameri.
can of the 9Th from the pen of Col.
Colyar on "our material interests" Of
Tennessee, and commend it to the care
full reading of all. We are glad to
know that so able writer as Col. Col
var has determined to devote a large
share of the American to the real in
terests of the country. He is well
posted, and if he will do as he promises
he will do much good. Other leading
journals and country newspapers will
find it to their "material interests" as
well as a source of great pleasure, to
devote a reasonable part of their space
and time to the "material interests" Of
the country, and give less time to Ten.
nessee politics.
Many farmers feel that they are moi
able to pay for more than one paper
and take but one, and feel that they
must take their own county paper. II
that paper is devoted entirely to poll
ties it will not help them much in their
farming interests.

Will You Believe it?

WOMAN's BEST FRIEND.-To relieve the
aching heart of woman, and bring Joy
where sorrow reigned supreme, is a mission
before which the smiles of kings dwindle
into insignifibance. This is the peculiar pro-
vince of Bradheld's Female Regulator,
which, from its numberless cures, is appro-
priately styled "WOman's Best Friend"
The distressing complaint known as whites
and various Irregularities of the womb, to
which woman is subject, disappear like
magic before this wonderful compound.
Physicians prescribe it.

Greeting.

We extend to our readers and friends
hearty glad-tO-see-you and we-have.
come-to-stay greeting, The announce.
ment above sufficiently explains the
new order of things. There will be no
change in the general tone and style of
the paper-we only hope by the in
crease in our working force to add new
interest to its columns and increase the
capacity of the STANDARD for doing
good. 1t is our earnest wish to make
our paper a welcome visitor in every
household into which it shall find its
way-both in town and country-and
TO this end we will give our utmost en-
ergies. Recognizing in agriculture and
its attendant interests the great corner
stone upon which all other pursuits
and industries rest, our principal theme
will be the advancement of the welfare
of the men who toll at the pillow, and
their co-labOrers in production of every
kind. At the same time, however, we
shall strive to make the STANDARD a
live, wide.awake county newspaper, in
teresting alike to the farmer, the me-
chanic, the merchant, and all classes
of our society; and while Of course we
do not expect to make a paper
pleasing alike to every individual who
may chance to peruse our columns, we
shall direct our best efforts to what we
conceive to be the greatest good to the
greatest number. AS to politics, not
any, thank you-that is, in the sense
of what is termed a political paper.
While we are Democratic in principle,
and are in sympathy with that party,
desiring its supremacy in the control Of
both State and National affairs, yet We
have no political opinions to advance
or arguments to make. We shall deal
in politics solely as matters of news
and then, "boiled down until there i.
nothing but solid facts.
The STANDARD will soon enter upoI
the fourth year of its existence. BE
es ing now established upon substantial
basis, and safely over that period o
precarious existence which every newl,
established paper must undergo, W
GIN confidently assure our subscriber

From the Springfield Republican,
A GENEROUS ACT
That viii be Appreciated by all who
Care for their Complexion and
Skin.

1t is not generally known that the nervous
system has wonderful influence over the
skin, but this is fact known to medical
men who have given much of their time to
the study of diseases of the skin. No one
can have clear and fair complexion I'M
mixed with blotches or pimples who is very
nervous.
Whatever tends to healthful condition
of the nervous system always beauties the
complexion and removes roughness and dry
ness OF the skin. Some skin diseases are
not attended by visible signs on the surface,
but an intolerable itching that renders life
miserable.
We copy the following deserving and in.
teresting compliment from the Tribune
which says: "Dr. c. w. Benson's New
Remedy, SKIN CURE is received by the
public with great confidence, and it regard
ed as very generous act on the Doctors
part t make known and prepare for gener
al use his valuable and lavorite prescription
for the treatment of skin diseases, after hav
ing devoted almost his entire life to the
study and treatment Of nervous and skin
discusses, in which he took great delight
He was for a number of years Physician in
charge of the Maryland Infrmary on Der

The remedy is fully the article to attack the

years, with the greatest success, and they

Standard Publishing Company.

Ritchey q Womack, former proprie-
tors and publishers of the STANDARD,
take pleasure in announcing to The pa
irons and friends that they have sold
an equal interest in the STANDARD and
STANDARD printing office to Messrs.
r. M. Reams and H. p. Newton, and
with these gentlemen have formed a
new company, under the style and firm
name of The Standard Publishing
Company, and in future the STANDARD
will be owned and published by the
new company, and every effort will be
made to conduct the business in such
way as to give satisfaction to our pa
irons.
To many of our patrons these young
men are well and favorably known.
Mr.. Newton has occupied the position
of foreman in the STANDARD office for
long time, and to him we are largely
indebted for the handsome appearance
and good taste manifested in the make
up of the STANDARD. He is a young
man of good moral character, of sober
and industrious habits and attentive to
business.
Mr.. Reams is also young man Of
good moral character, sober and indus
trious, and well educated in the art OF
printing and the newspaper business,
Few young men are his Superiors or his
equals in his profession.
In job printing, plain, fancy and Or
namental, these young men have few
equals. With them in the office, and
the help Of Mr.. Reams as assistant edi
itor, we hope to make the STANDARD
more useful and interesting to its read
ers.
These young men are just starting in
business and are anxious for patronage
and success, and will manfully strive
to win the same by close attention tc
business and giving their patrons full
value for their patronage.
The new firm are in perfect harmony
as to the objects and aims of the
STANDARD, and will work harmoni
ously together for the advancement
and interest of not only McMinnville
and Warren county, but for the rea
good of all classes throughout the
country. The STANDARD will continue
non-political, and as heretofore be de-
voted mainly to the rural pursuits, ever
the friend Of the merchant, the me
chanic, the manufacturer, the educator
and the professional man. The rea
prosperity of the country depends no
upon the prosperity of any single class
but upon the prosperity of all as {
whole people. For the real prosperity
of all the people we propose to worl
and devote the STANDARD, and invit,
our friends to help us.

Accident With Dynamite.

SHELBYyGLLE, IND, September g.
This afternoon Mr.. VIM. Henry,
one of the best known men in the coun-
ty, accompanied by his son, went into
a field to blow out stumps, using dyna-
mite, which Mr.. Henry carried in a
basket. The son, who had charge of
the fire, managed to drop a coal in the
basket, end the explosion that immedi
ately followed blew off all Mr.. Henry's
left hand but the thumb, burned his
body badly from head to foot, and
filled it with splinters from the basket
and pieces of the cartridges, as well as
tearing off every stitch Of clothing lie
had or save his boots. His injuries are
such that his chances for 'recovey are
doubtful. The conclusion made him
entirely deaf. The son was thrown a
distance of about fifteen feet, and was
badly hurt about the head.
