Get Ont Of the But.

Every man or woman who yields
the pen will be ready to admit that
he or she is liable to fall into a
groove of expression, and will habit
ually use certain words and phrases,
while ignoring and practically ex-
Guiding certain others equally good
or better from their vocabulary.
This is precisely the case of the
conscientious housewife. She is
apt to get into groove with her
menus. Certain dishes become as
ISOLATED with her hospitality; GER
tain others are never to be hoped
for at her table. Occasionally sh e
makes a fresh departure, sallies
forth and captures a new recipe,
conquers its difficulties, and ac-
cords it place at the family table.
But this does not occur sufficiently
often. The best rifle in the world
has limit to its range. The best
housewife in the world has bound
ed horizon of Cuisine.
So much for the defect; now for
the remedy. 1t is sufficiently sim
pie. 1t Is but to resolve to add at
least one dish to the family posi-
bilities every week, and strictly to
carry out the resolution. This
must be a plat of utter newness,
some secret lately learned. Were
every housewife to carry out such
a resolution, what a rich result of
added charms would accrue to our
national cookery! What worlds to
conquer lie around US, undiscov-
cred, unexplored! The immediate
results may be slightly uncertain,
as was the plunging of the flesh
forks of the priests of old into the
flesh pots; but we may feel assured
that in both cases practice breeds
dexterity, and while the more mex
perienced Of the priests servants
may occasionally have fetched up a
very insufficient meal, no such acct
dent was likely to occur to the
adroit experimentalist whom former
disappointments had rendered eau

or cosaterJeited.
This is especially true of a
family medicine, and it is posi-
tive proof that the remedy initiated
is of the highest value.
AS soon as it had been tested
and proved by the whole world
that hop Bitters was the purest,
best and most valuable family
medicine on earth, many imita-
lions sprung up and began to steal
the notices in which the press and
people of the country had express
ed the merits of II. B., and in
every way trying to induce suffer-
ing invalids to use their stuff in
stead, expecting to make money
on the credit and good name OF
II. B.
Many others started nostrums
put up in similar style to I'll. B.,
with variously cunningly devised
names in which the word Hop !"
or g Hops" were used in a way to
induce people to believe they were
the same as hop Bitters. All
such pretended remedies or cures,
no matter what their style or name
is, and especially those with the
word Chop" or &c Hops" in their
name or in any way connected
with them or their name, are lml-
tations or counterfeits.
Beware of them. Touch none
of them, but: Use nothing but
genuine Hop Bitters, with a bunch
or cluster of green Hops on the
white label. Trust nothing else.
Druggists and dealers are warned
against dealing in limitations OF
counterfeits. Cg

comes naturally, without being sent
for, or coaxed. one that seems to
bubble mp among the tiimples like
the water at the bottom of a spring,
showing pearly teeth like the little
pebbles thrown up by the water of
the spring, smile that goes rip
ping along the face like the afore
said water among the daisies and
water cress, on its way to the sea,
is worth more to the world than a
gold mine. Who is there in the
world who has not been made bet
ter by a smile? A smile is legal
tender anywhere, and II person who
smiles naturally, is as safe from
harm as it is possible to be. Men
who grow tired their homes, sick
of the world, and ready to give vi
the battle, can be strengthened and
made ready for the fight of another
day by smile. if it comes without
being sent for. One man, with a
good natured smile, can go into u
crowd of grumbiing, growing, bus
mess men, who think the c untry
is all going to the dogs, and change
the who'll atmosphere IN ten sec
onds. A man with Il good smile
can stop fight between angry men
when policemen would iril The
smile of a good woman, when she
comes upon Il party of gossipc .,
her own sex, will change the sub
.ject in Il moment, and make them
ashamed of themselves.
Sometimes we think it would pay
a city to hire mole smiling faces
and less policemen to keep the
peace. With a hundred good, nat
ural smilers walking around, going
into places where men are liable TO
get in hot box, with a pleasant
word where it would do the most
good, there would be very few rows.
OF course it would be necessary
for our smilcr to be able to back his
smile with muscle so if any unruly
person did not take kindly to the
smile and knock it around under
the smiler's ear with a chair or a
bung starter, the smiler could wipe
the floor with the wretch. There
would be times when a smile would
fail to do it's work, as there are
times now when a smile fails to &C
complish all that it desires to, but
take it on the whole the smile
would be better than the club or
revolver There are some men Who
are continually and constitutionalIy
devoid of smiles, who would be
sick ifthey should accidentally smile
and such men should be compelled
to pass two hours a day in the
presence of good. single handed
smilers, and learn to be happy.
If there is anything ir the world
that has more power than a smile,
when it is shot off f ON the right
kind of gun, we have never seen it.
The smile Of girl will draw a
young man from his mother and
from bad company. 1t will teach
him to be man, and he will, if he
loves the girl, do nothing that
would chase the smile away. The
smile of a mother can conquer
the wayw I'd child, and compel it
to come into camp to be spanked or
caressed. The smile of u teacher
can do more for pupil than a bun
die of hazel brush. A good, old
fashioned, natural, unaffected smile
costs nothing, wears out no costly
machinery, but rather dis it and
makes it run smooth. and it is a
medicine that we all like to take,
and it leaves no bal taste in the
mouth.-Peck's Sun.

The Murfressboro News tells OF
Cannon county farmer who makes
it a point to buy Missouri wheat
for sowing, and who never sows OF
his own crop. The other day he
sold his crop in Murfressboro and
engaged some Missouri wheat to be
delivered as soon as it could be pro-
cured, for which he was to pay fif-
ty cents more in the bushel than he
had received for his own. A few
days afterwards he received his
seed wheat from St LOUIS, but

found therein an old barlow knife
which his son had lost when he was
