Something 10 Think About.

A noted physician has said that fifty
per cent. of the contracted cases of con-
sumption among females is caused by
arrangements peculiar to their sex.
Another one says that these derange-
ments affiict four-6fths of the Women
of the United States. The estimate of
influence upon the health of their chill.
dren cannot be made. Every woman
owes it to herself, her offspring, and to
humanity to try every means within
her power to cure herself of these at
hictions. The Chattanooga Medicine
Company offer McElree's Wine of Car
dui, or Woman's Relief, as a safe,
harmless, sure remedy for these diseas-
es. They have tested it in over seven
thousand cases of females afflicted with
every shade of menstrual irregularity.
Over six thousand FIVE hundred were
cured. Pains that caused violent
spasms were sometimes relieved in five
minutes after dose was taken. La
dies so much reduced as to have been
in bed for weeks and months were per-
manently restored to health. They
have numberless letters testifying to
these facts, some of them from persons
known in every State in the Union.
Many ministers of the gospel have GER
tilted to miraculous cures coming under
their observation. Considering these
facts, 1t should be the pleasure, if moi
the duty, of every mother, wife OF
daughter to avail themselves of this
remedy, furnished by the Almighty
Father to relieve and cure their attic
tions and prepare them for healthy
vigorous maternity. A large bottle o
McElree's Wine of Cardui costs bu
one dollar, and may be procured a
any drug store.

The company assembled at quite an

refresh the inner man. 1t is needless
to say that the elegant collation. spread
by Mrs. Mead was enjoyed by the APP
preciative partakers, and was served in
the style peculiarly characteristic OF
Mrs. M. In this case it was pleasure
before business. An adjournment to
the parlor was followed by suggestion
from Mr.. w. V. Whitson that Mr.. d, F.
Wallace be called to the chair. Mr..
Wallace was duly elected President
and Mr.. d. l.. Brown Secretary. AT
ter an explanation of the object of the

The l. and u. y. Club.

The Informal and Unceremonious
Social Club of McMinnville, which met
and organized last week at the residence
of Mr.. r. Mead, will hold its next
meeting at the residence of j. B.
Ritchey sometime during the full moon
in this month. The date of the meet.
ing will be duly announced in the 10.
cal papers, and each member unless
sick or otherwise prOvidentially pre-
vented, will be expected to be present.
We believe these meetings will result
in much good as well as pleasure to
many of us who have so long allowed
business and self interest to absorb all
our time. We certainly can give three
hours of one evening in each month to
-UfIo oii~l-;;--tv.-esyrs-0 of -rtc community
when they are so pleasantly spent as at
the last meeting of the club. Such
meetings we think cannot fail to result
in much good as well as great pleasure
to us old folks. We are for them.

The Great Bear Hunt.

On last Sunday night two men from
near Shellslord were travelling across
Cardwells Mountain on their way
home, when they suddenly met large
black bear. Before meeting the bear
one of them thought he smelt some
thing, and asked his companion if he
did not smell something strange and
peculiar. The other thought he did.
They advanced and met large black
bear which reared back on his hind
feet and showed fight. The two men
advanced toward the bear, but bruin
showed no disposition to run. The two
gentlemen being unarmed resolved to
change their course, and at once made
their way to the nearest neighbor, Mr..
John Higginbotham and reported to
him that they were attacked by bear
Next morning Mr.. Hgginbotham re.
ported to Mr.. Geo Mead, who gathered
up all his hands and all the guns he
could get and started in pursuit, Mead
and party were met by another from
Blue Spring Cove and about the same
time another party from McGee's Cove.
After making such disposition of men
as to entirely surround CardwelPs
Mountain, so as to prevent the escape
of the bear, John Higginbotham and
Nose Bouldin were selected to slow
track the bear, and with their dogs
were soon in pursuit. They had not
gone far before they Jumped" the bear
and soon about eighteen hounds were
in swift pursuit of the bear which made
"a circuit around the Cardwell Knob,
Believing there was no possible chance
for the escape of the bear all felt sure
of his capture. But when bruin saw
f7he was Surrounded and no other way
of escape he struck for hole in Card
wells Mountain and IN he aUent. The
next question was how to get him out
| The entrance was too small for NOR,
than one man to go in at time. Ate
parleying for some time as to whit
should 90 in first, Geo. Mead led witt
gun and lantern in hand. He had no
gone more than ten feet before he dis
covered the bears eyes shining anC
fired on him killing the bear dead il
his tracks. With some assistance the,
drew the dead animal to the mouth 0
the cave and thus ended the creates
bear hunt Of the season.

The present month, so remarkable
for severe cold and sudden change Of
weather, will no doubt be productive
of vast increase of pulmonary affec-
tons. Many of our immediate circle
of acquaintance and friends have al.
ready contracted colds of more or less
serious character, the fOrerunner, if
neglected, Of incipient consumption,
bronchitis, laryngitis, asthma, phthisic,
catarrh, etc., and we have no doubt
that ere another twelvemonth some of
them will have gone to their last rest
ing-place because of inattention to the
first slight symptoms. There is, how
ever, ready and unfailing remedy for
these distressing complaints at hand, in
Edward Wilder's Compound Extract
of Wild Cherry. In the entire range
of nlateriG medicG there has never here
tofore been offered so simple, effective
cure for all diseases of the throat,
