Tom Reed dresses in dark tweed bust

LYMAN, of Massachusetts. wears green
scarf; Orlando b. POtter's gray clothes

age.
Charley O'Neil, of Philadelphia, is natty
in his dress, and his red neckties are al

Both Carlisle and Randall wear little
inch-wide black neckties, and both are
generally dressed in black. Both stOOp a

Gov. Long has a good tailor, and his

his hair always stands on end.
Phil Thompson, that little fellow with

very neatly, and his clothes fit him. He

A nurseryman recently handed to our
reporter some of the fruit of the melon
shrub--a new importation from Central
America.
The fruit Is of the size of gosse egg,
and very much of the same shape. The
color is lemon, or pale orange, with streaks
Of bright violet. The interior of the fruit,
for it partakes of the nature of a musk
melon, but has a much thinner rInd is a
solid pulp, similar to that Of a pear, also
of pale yellow color, and in taste again
resembling the muskmelon, but has be-
sides pleasing acid, said TO be so whole
some and delicious that when partaken
of on a very warm day it takes all the
thirst away for hours.
The plant has been successfully grown
in Los Angeles county,and is being intro
duced in this county. AS it is an enOr-
nous yielder, the fruit pleasant and
wholesome, and commanding good price
in the market, the melon shrub und0ubt-
eddy has good future before it,

Letter 10 he Editor Of the London Spectator.
About two months ago, while staying
in the Rocky Mountains in Northern Col
OradO, | witnessed an example OF fatherly
affection in a tom cat, which | feel sure
YOU will be interested to hear of. This
cat had adopted two mOtherless kittens;
he slept with them at night, guarded them
in the day time, and always superintended
their meals, in which latter he showed
great unselfshness. For the hostess of
the ranch was in the habit of feeding the
kittens out Of a small bowl of milk laid
on the floor, into which they at once
would plunge their heads; meanwhile
''Kitty Gray" the old tom cat-quite
aware that there was not room for his
own great head in it, tOO-would sit by
complacently watching them, nor move
till they had finished, except when his
hunger was very keen, and then he would
dip his paw in now and again and lick it.
This was the case when | saw him, and l
shall not readily forget the sight OF that
large gray and white cat walking de-
murely round the bowl to see where he
could best insert his paw without disturb
ing the kittens. and then. with his head
much on one side, dipping it delIcately in
and out, until they had quite finished,
when he at once fell TO and drank up the
rom niudpf.

A GANG OF CUT-THRoATs.
An Atlanta Firm Causes a Big SensN-
tiOn-COwhides in the Air.


tion-COwhides in the Air.
The recent excitement incident TO the
unparalleled rush for a noted blood puri-
fer, in Atlanta, Is hardly on the wane.
One of the more ostentatious druggists re-
Gently bought up a large lot OF 4 cele-
brated blood remedy, and
MADE CUT
on the former retail price. One of his
modes OF advertising this fact was to
stand boys in front Of opposition drug
stores distributing advertising matter.
This so harassed one druggist that he ap-
preached his opponent and said, "If you
don't stop that boy, you or / will get
cowhiding." Another druggist, not to be
OutdOne, made a
STILL LOWER CUT,
and for several days had a force of boys
paradiDg the streets with banners, bear
ing the inscription, i'll bold letters, b. b. B.
This novel proceeding evoked much
comment, and is the first instance Of
patent medicine creating universal COM
motion among druggists on record, which,
however, only seems to show the
GREAT POPULARITY OF BOTANIC BLOOD
BALM.
Within the past six months the demand
for this remedy has been wonderful. a
number OF druggists retailing as much as
three dozen bottles in one day. At pres
ent some buy it in i've gross lots, some
three, and others one gross al time. The
Blood Balm Company recently made a
contract with J. W. Holman, of Denver,
Col, for the sale of
$120,0O0,000 WORTH OF b. BIB.
This is the largest contract OF the kind
ever made i'll the United States to ono
house. The prOpriet0rs Of b. B. B. have
no hand in this cut-rate war among the
trade, and only regret that the druggists
should become angry in their endeavOrs
to catch the largest trade in the sale of B.
Il. B., which has Of late become so heavy
and universal in Atlanta. No one will
doubt the heavy demand when aware of
the fact that B. b. B. is the first and only
Blood Purifier that
MAKES CURES QUICKLY AND CHEAPLY
of all forms and stages Of blood pOisOns,
scr0fula, skin diseases, kidney troubles,
etc, etc. Many cases are cured with one
single bottle, and if the public desire
further and more direct information on
the subject, a postal card directed to
Blood Balm Co., Atlanta, Ga, Will Sc
cure a valuable book free.

rs THAT YOU, HUBBY -
How "A Little Husband was Padded b,
His Wife in San Francisco.

How "A Little Husband was Padded by
His Wife in San Francisco.
They are laughing at the City Hall, says
the San Francisco Cdll, at a malicious
story about well known servant Of the
municipal government, whose inches of
stature are in inverse ratio to his clerical
talents. This exceedingly small but
worthy gentleman is the fortunate pos
SCISSOR of a spouse who fills the Homerio
description of a stately Juno, towering in
the majesty Of her massive beauty above
the other goddesses of Olympus. She is
as strict a mother as she is fond and
dutiful wife.
So when she heard an incipient riot the
other evening in the nursery after bed
time she seized her slipper and fastened
to subdue the Over-hilariOus youngsters.
The latter, with the guile Of childhood,
eXtinguished the light before the correct
ing slipper could reach them, so the ma
ternal enforcement of discipline had 10 be
carried on in darkness. Two OF the Of
tenders acknowledged the uneasiness of
their positions on the maternal knee by
juvenile shrieks. The third sufferer, IL
stead of appealing for mercy in the weak
treble Of childhood, yelled his protesta-
tiOns in such pOnder0us voice that the
astonlshed lady dropped him and gasped:
els that you, hubby? p 1t was. The reck-
less man had, with unthinkiDg fOolhardi-
ness, followed the irate lady into the nur-
sery, and got mixed up with his family.
He will do so no more.

Having been away much of the
time during the past week, on a visit
to Nashville, have gathered but few
items of news. My trip, which was
in a wagon overland, was a very
pleasant one, the weather being fine
for being out. l saw many things
which was of interest to me, as it was
my first visit to the city since 1860,
when | was only five years old.
Among the things Of interest l will
mention the National Cemetery, near
Murfreesboro, where sleep many of
the brave soldiers who fell in battle
during the war. 1t is quite sight to
one who has never seen it before. l
saw the furniture factory of Weakly
d Warren consumed by fire Thurs
day evening. The fire department
was soon at its post of duty, but the
buildings being filled with combusti-
bles the flames gained such Roadway
that it was impossible to save the es-
Establishment. l was told that $l50,0OO
worth of machinery, with a large
amount of furniture, were destroyed.
The market-house, the Capitol, and
the iron bridge (Which is nearly COM
pleted) were all places of interest to
me. / also had the pleasure of meet
ing Prof. Head, while in Nashville.
He had several copies of his book
which he had just received, but being
in a hurry, did not have time to ex-
anime the work.
Rev. j. p. Smith, of your town,
preached at Bald Knob Sunday.
Hog killing season is at hand and
we are having fine time feasting on
back bones and spare ribs.
Several persons from this commu-
nifty went to Faulkner's Chapel last
Sunday to hear Rev. Mr.. BlaylOck
preach.

spent several days Of last week in our
midst.
Dick Oliver went to Cannon county
Monday, returning Tuesday.
I hear it whispered that we are to
have wedding in a few days. If it
comes off you shall hear Of it.
A. c. Holland, with several other
gentlemen, whose names / failed to
get, are spending several days on
Cumberland montain hunting.
