The Milan exchange. (Milan, Gibson County, Tenn.) 1874-1978, 1883-08-18

The Nashville American says that
in the boot and shoe trade of that
city is ranked fifth the United
States, and that they are increaing
their business so fast that eastern
drummers are abandoning the south,
being unable to compete with them.
We know of one firm-Halls, Hooper
IL Mitchell = who, through their
travelling salesman, Mr.. Jno. w.
Moore, do an immense business in
West Tennessee, and we suppose else~
where. In Milan alone they sell many
thousand dollars worth per annum,
and their sales are good in the towns
around us. If the other Nashville
houses give as general satisfaction, we
are prepared to believe the statement
of the American, and we are glad it
is true. Let us patronize home mar
kets when we can.

Squire Whites Lebanon Herald
tells Of wonderful apple which a
DeKalb county man raises and calls
it "the rattlesnake apple. > 1t has a
representation Of snake around it,
and when shaken the seeds rattle in

it Mother Ewes apple?

them respectfully to give it prompt

Importance to large class of people

Fruit and truck farming in West
Tennessee are fast gaining in impor-

ing to the fact that there is more
money to be made by this system than
in treading in the old ruts of their
fathers. Besides, immigrants-live,
pushing men--are dropping in, and
we have hope that many Others will
follow soon. If the railways will give
US reasonably low rate for shipping
all our products, they will soon have
ten times the quantity to haul. Let
the press join in this urgent request.
The prosperity and welfare of their

their crops destroyed by frost, drouth

STRENGTH

to vigorously push business,
strength to study profession,
strength to regulate a household,
strength to do a days labor with
out physical pain. All this repre-
sents what is wanted, in the often
heard expression, "0h! wish
had the strength" If you are
broken down, have not energy, or
feel as if life was hardly worth liv-
ing, you can be relieved and re-
stored to robust health and strength
by taking BROWNS IRON BIT
TIERS, which is a true tonic-a
medicine universally recommended
for all wasting diseases.

For the Happiness Of Home.
From Clergyman's Home Comes
Message Containing the Wisdom
Of Exnarianca.

Home is the centre of the social system.
From it proceed the best and purest iniiu-
ences felt in the world, and towards i grav-
tate the tenderest hopes Of humanity for
ii all good men labor while their working
days laat, and around it their last thoughts
hnger lovingly when those days are done.
Yet home does not usually approach IN
practice its own Ideals 1he mother is
overtaxed with household duties and the
rearing and training OF her children, while
the father fights the outside battle to win
the wherewithal to meet expenses. Sooner
or later care and toll leave their marks. II
is true enough, as Kingsley sings IN the
ssThree Fishers that
s.Men mnst work and women must weep,n
hut too much working and weeping brush
all the bloom from lies iruIt.
Mental anxiety and lack OF rest and pleas
IRE induce physical diseases Of many kinds;
whence the need OF a trustworthy tonic TO
give help and strength IN times OF need.
Among the good women OF the iand VINO
have found such q sure anchor is Mrs. A. Y.
George, wife OF Rev. A. Q. George, ID. d.,
pastor of the Centenary NJ. +. church OF
Chicago, whose words we have her permits
sion to quote: 81 use Parker's Ginger Tome
in my family. and can say that we are high
ly pleased with it as tonic. From my ex-
perience of its value, | recommend 1t as a
reliable family medicine"
Please note: first, Parker's Ginger Tonic
is not mere essence of Ginger; second, it
contains nothing to create an appetite for
intoxicating drinks; third, it is a splendid
health restorative for all who suffer from
disordered liver or kidneys or any disease
arising from indigestion and impure blood
Accept no substitute for it. Prices soc. and
81 bottle 1t is cheaper to buy the larger
size. Hiscox & Co., New York.
