SWEAT wnman,a Month.

Wide open mouths have come
into fashion for women. This Is
change from the prevailing style OF
the past. The proper mouth now,
saws the New York Graphic, is worn
in a constant but mild smile, the
corners drawn back horizontally
with the lips left closed. The ex-
preston is one Of amiable quiet
satisfaction, as IL she laughs or
smilee naturally. Knowing full well
our defects Of teeth or expression,
we try to hide or reform them. /
know a girl who will never go TO
the minstrels or other shows be-
cause she isn't pretty when she
laughs. IL inadvertently caught by
something comic. she buries The
laugh in a handkerchief; but when
ever possible, she does Der laughing
internally. This wrenches her ter
ribly, aud sooner or later her vitals
will get broken all to pieces but
she prefers death TO q display OF
scraggy teeth.

The Doctors Rebate.
1Chicago Times

A little child, the pet OF the en-
tire household, was taken sick NJ a
fashionable boarding-house a few
weeks ago. A very young and
fhandsome physician, who was the
medical favorite about the premises,
was called in, and brought the
patient safely through its illness.
Later on he sent in his bill, which
was for $l2, with a rebate of "S4 for
kisses" The fond mother regarded
this as a very neat thing and deli
cate compliment for her child, and
proudly exhibited the document
among her friends. Where the
kisses came from, and who contrib
uted to the doctors enjoyment, the
bill did not state. The mother sup
posed, as a matter of course, that
her offspring was the one moant, but
some of the boarders slyly intinated
that explanations were in order, and
that the osculatory mystery ought
to he investigated. The question
was taken up and discussed until ID
became a subject for comment about
the whole house. The innocent
mother continued to exhibit the slip
Of paper, and one day brought it
out in the presence of a young and
quite pretty maiden, who had only
ately been on the sick list. "a re-
pate for kissesv' she exclaimed,
when the matter was explained to
ler; ''why, isn't that nice; but them
and she paused, while frown APP
)eared on her face and an angry
lush crept over her cheek. Some
emotion was struggling for mastery.
Che flush deepened and she shook
Ter head defantly as she completed
he sentence: "But the mean thing
ever cut down ing bill cent, and
don't think it is fair" The out
'urst of laughter that followed
rought the fair maiden to a realiza-
ion that she had said something
readful. She had betrayed herself.
he careless doctor had got his bills
liked, and but for that unfortunate
lip the mystery would probably
ever have been solved and tho
Ivenile patient would have received
he credit of the medicated kisses.

The Appeal for 1882.

In issuing its prospectus for 1882, the
Appeal has but one premise to make,
and that is, a determination to maintain
its character and rank in the forefront
of American newspapers. The Appeal
il now regarded as one OF the institu-
tions OF the south. Its history for the
past forty-one years is the history OF
the development of southern thought,
southern politics, southern industry and
southern literature, and its sympathies
and aims will be the same in the future.
The paper will continue to be the con-
slant reflex OF the most reliable iDtelli-
gence obtainable from all parts OF the
world. 1t will remain inaexibly DEM
ocratic, but its space will be mainly de-
voted to news, the interest of agricul-
ture, trade, commerce, manufactures,
internal improvements, the Develop
ment of southern resources and all
branches of industry. While always on
the alert for the latest intelligence, IL
will avoid the nero sensational, and
will never pander TO vitiated tastes.
The Appeal is specially devoted to the
interests OF Tennessee and Memphis, Its
great commercial emporium, and will
use its best abilities TO promote both.
Ii realizes that the future empire OF this
country lies in the south and will labor
to combine the political and business re-
lations OF these two sections In Inducing
the legislation Of Congress for improV-
ing the navigation Of the Mississippi
river and its tributaries.

A Little Girl Kidnapped by Indians
and Raised as a Redskin.

OTTAWA, December 25.-an OLE
and well known Indian, who ha
Just died, before his death made
confession which entirely cleared III
what had been painful mystery fol
a full half century. Fifty years age
Nicholas Garland, pioneer, took s
tract of land situated in what is now
the towship of Beckwith, in the
county of Lanark, built a cabin
upon it and proceeded to clear away
the dense forest standing upon the
tract. At that time he had q wife
and one small child, a very pretty
little girl named Alice. One day
Alice did not return from the edge
of the clearing where she had been
playing with two other children
An alarm was given and all the
woodsmen in the country there
abouts joined in 9 search, which
lasted for many days, but resulted
in no clew to the missing child and
the general verdict arrived at by
the hunters was that Alice had been
carried off and devoured by one of
the bears with which the country
then abounded. This conclusion
seemed to he coroborrated by the
discovery of some small bones few
month afterward, in a deep hollow a
couple of miles from Gsrland's
cabin. They we're gathered care
fully together and buried by the
father and mother of Alice, near
theiHhome. All the people for miles
around attended the funeral, which
was the first ever held in that sec
ton of the whites. The loss Of her
child and the terrible strain of the
long suspense, and the CHASTITY dis
closure subsequent, broke down the |
strong constitution of Mrs. Garland,
and she died with a broken heart |
not long after tho funeral. Mr.. |
Garland, after his Wife's death, be
came hard and ascetic. He never |
associated with his neigAbors, and |
has ever since lived q hermit in the |
cabin he first built. This old In
dian, who died yesterday, however,
says taat he saw Alice on that day, |
when she was playing with her com
panions on the clearing, became
with her childish beauty.
and carried her away, and raised
her as one of his own in his family.
When she became manageable she |
was thoroughly Indianized and her |
abductor managed to have her mar
RED to one of his sons. She is now
living in Bruce county, and is the
mother of a large family. She has
never shown that she had any recol- !
lection of her parents or home and
appears to be happy. The dying
Indian said that so well had she
been cared for that he believed no
one could now convince her of her |
real origin or induce her to change |
her lot, and he added that no one
but himself and the son who married |
her was ever made acquainted with |
her history. The confession is be-
ieved to have been true, and has
caused o profound sensation.
