healthy, or nearly so.
Growing weather is rapidly on
the increase, owing we presume, to
the nomination of Butler for Presi-
dent. Eh!
Prospects never were finer than
now, for a big crop in Bee Branch.
Candidates are growing exceed
ingly numerous in their visits to our
usually quiet little village. Come
on gentlemen, we love to make the
acquaintance of honest men, and if
we can't vote for all of you, we can
get a free dinner from you, when we
meet you in town; you certainly
mean what you say don't you?
DR.. Perrin our jovial practition-
er, is talking of. joining the exodus
to Kansas, where he won't have to
plow corn for living.
"A certain young gentleman OF
this vicinity, was much exercised, a
few evenings since, owing to a
special package being missed from his
budget of mail. Rough walking
wasen't it Sam. for barefoot horse?
The Bynumville Sunday school
is in a fiourishing condition, with
some sixty-eight scholars on the at
tendance roll. J. H. HIse Sup't.,
and A. C. Yecum Secretary.
-The GreeDbackers and Temper
ance folks are making preparations
to celebrate the 4th in proper style,
near Bynumville. Capt. Jno. NJ.
London of Macon Is one of the
speakers. The names of the rest of
the exponents are unknown to your
correspondent.
Il see in last weeks Press-Spcctd-
tor the BynumvilIe correspondent,
has something to say concerning the
death of Mr.. Cyrus McLaughlin's
daughter by snake bite. And says
that had it not been for the objec-
tions to giving whiskey as medicine
in her case, by monomaniac temper
ance friends; she might now be liv-
ing. 1t doesn't speak well for the
correspondent, to thus censure the
conduct and actions of loving friends
in their care for the dear deceased.
They did what they knew best, GER
tainly. The only palliation that can
be offered for the correspondents
wanton words, is to say thai perhaps
his life has been hemed in by cir
cumstances, beyond his control. If
he had had clearer comprehension
of things, generally speaking, or
in other words if he did not go round
so wadded with stupidity and self en-
ulation, the community would pass
muster before less cynical mind.
But to return to the subject.
Mr.. Gray Richmond of this commu-
nifty, has about seven acIes of corn,
that is now hip high, who can beat
that. Now don't let our Pedee cor
respondent wait two or three weeks
and then say that's nothing, but how
now;
Mr.. Bartholomew has purchased a
binder to cut his immense wheat crop
on the Charlton Bottom. If persons
who think bottom land is worth moth
ing but for grass, would come up
and view Mr.. BIS wheat field, just
now, they might have change OF
sentiment given them.
Politically speaking, the idea is
prevalent here that what we want,
now, in politics, is to ''put honest
men on guard, upon honest princi'
piles. Yours,

An old minister in Ohio SCENE,

An old minister in Ohio seemed
rather opposed to an educated min
istry. Said he: ''Why, my brether-
ing, every young man who is going
to preach thinks he must be off to
some college and study a lot of Greek
and Latin. AllEonseDse! All wrong ]
What did Peter and Paul know about
Greek? Why, not word my breth-
ering. No! Peter and Paul preach
ed in the plain old English, and soil

Why Garrison Killed a Man.

In his life and ending Ralston was
perhaps the typical Californian of the
early time. In 1917 he began life as
second clerk on the steamboat Convoy
(of which c. X. Garrison was captain
and main owne), running from St.
Louis to New Orleans. After varied
fortunes, in lSl9 Commodore Garrison
killed a well known Mississippian in q
fight, shooting him in the head just in
time to save his own life The family
of the man he killed was a very rich
and powerful one at that time and
while Garrison did what he did clearly
in self defence, yet he certainly would
have been killed by some Of the dead
mans brothers had he continued to run
on the river. He therefore concluded
to leave the South, and the California
cold excitement breaking out at that
time, he went out there, his clerk, Raj.
ston following him. As might be eX-
pected, Garrison soon became very
rich. and established the firm of CARR.
son, Fretz a. Ralston. After making
an immense fortune, he came east to
New York, leaving Ralston one of the
leading inanciers of that section. Hi:
life, adventures, and sad death are toe
well remembered TO need further men

FEMININE FANCIES.

His wife's appearance in general,
and her toilet in particular, has now
come to be recognized, says a London
Journal as one of the gauges of
mans social status. In the old-fash-
Toned days when classes were divided
by a hard-and-fast rule, such n means
OF Judging OF mans place on the
world ladder would have been deemed
absurd indeed. She who dresses better
than her fellows drew down upon her
self the Indignation Of her peers, who
called her IAN expensive woman, and
poured out the yials of sinccrest pity
upon the husband who had to pay her
bills. But during the last twenty
years dress has come TO the front in
quite amazing way, and even the men,
bers of the superior sex give an atten-
ton TO the cut and color Of their over
coats that would once have been
thought immensely derogatory to mas
outline dignity. The most pondorous
of citizens lends serious ear to the
recommendation of his tailor, and in
these days it is only the millionaire
who can afford to be careless in the
matter Of coats and hats.
In choosing chairs and tables for the
drawing-roOm, the more varied they
are in size and shape the better. Let
the wood be all fairly similar but the
materials may be as widely different as
possible, and n judicious blending Of
several colors is one thing aimed at by
those who have good taste.
Inc secret of furnishing is to buy
articles which are suitable, GOOD. and
durable, and this without u lavish ex-
pendituro Of money.
Many charming toilethas been rend-
cred futile and ineffective by q home
made bonnet. ltmay, at first blush, seem
The daily Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1878-1???, 1884-07-23

absurd TO pay $50 or $50 for few
square inches of bead, flowers, and
ribbons; but it should be remembered
that it is that intangible thing called
"stylen that makes the bonnet costly.
You must not mind having to pay II
high price for your dining-room furnit-
ure, as it should be very solid, good,
and handsome. At the same time you
can sometimes pick up very good second
hand dining-room suits, upholstered in
the best style, for half their original
price. If you intend to have Il mirror
over your dining-room mantel-piecc,
see that it is framed in wood similar to
your chairs and table, and eschew gilt
mirrors in any form, as they are the
very acme of bad taste and vulgarity.
