Yesterday afternoon, when the Chat

p. M, was nearing Haley's Station, u
member of the Legislature from Hamil-
ton county, while walking through Il
car, accidentally brushed against icl-
low.passcngcr named Hill, knocking
Hills hat off. Hill spoke in rather a
rough tone to the legislator, who, after
replacing the hat on Hills head, became
highly indignant and drew II pistol.
Hill, whose only weapon of defense was
a knife, calmly told the legislator that
he did not want to fight any one, but
nevertheless he was not afraid of him or
his pistol. Other passengers interfcred,
and when conductor entered the car he
found Hill quietly eating an orange and
the legislator sitting near him. EXpla-
nations were made, and no further
trouble occurred Nashville Banner,

A YOUNG MANS CASE.

MIR. S. S. HoDGEN, Jr., of No. 147 Park
street, Lewiston, Me-, relates the following per-
sonal narrative, May IA. 1888: about fifteen
months since had severe attack of typhoid
fever, was very lame, and confined to my bed
for eleven weeks, and when the fever left me
was in very debilitated condition. My back
and loins seemed to have no strength, and 1
had no vitality or appetite. 1 tried various
kinds of medicine recommended by my friends,
but found they did not improve my condition.
1 was induced to try Hunts Remedy, which
has been used with such great success here in
Lewiston that it has very enviaole reputa-
ton of being most reliable medicine, 1 pur
chased one bottle, and can date my improved
health from the time l commenced using it,
and my progress continued very rapidly;
gained in strength, and experienced less pain
in my back, my appetite increased, and after
using three % bottles my pains were all gone
and my health entirely restored, and 1 can
most heartily recommend Hunts Remedy to
any one who may need true remedy for de-
bility, kidney or urinary troubles"

Rough Handling of Children.

The Cincinnati Lancet and Clinic
says: The causes Of joint diseases in
childhood are frequently obscure, but
this much is certain, that the rough
handling which children receive at
the hands of ignorant parents or care
less nurses has much to do with the
matter. Stand on any street
corner and notice how children
are handled. Here comes a lady
with a three-year-old girl; she
is walking twice as fast as she should,
and the child is Over-eXerting itself
to keep pace; every time the child
lagS the mother gives it sudden and
unexpected lurch which is enough to
throw its shoulder out, to say nothing
of bruising the delicate structures of
the joints; a gutter is reached; in
stead of giving the little fodder time
to get over in its own way. or properly
lifting it, the mother raises it from
the ground with one hand, its whole
weight depending from one upper eX-
tremity, and with swing that twists
the child's body as far around as the
joints will permit, it is landed, after
course of four or five feet through
the air, on the other side.
Here is girl of twelve years old
with "a baby of a year in her arms.
The babe sits on the girls arm with
out support to its back. This would
be hard enough position to maintain
were the girl standing still, but she is
walking rapidly, and the little one has
to gather the entire strength of it's
muscular system to adapt itself
to its changing base of sup
port, to say nothing of ad-
justing its little body to sudden leaps
and darts on the part of its hayward
nurse. Sometimes during a sudden
advance you will see a part of the
babe foot in advance of its head and
trunk, which have to be brought up
by powerful and sudden action of
the muscles of the body and neck.
Probably not one child in a hundred
is properly handled.
