"And it is said, Mr.. Ward, that you

"That's So" replied Nh. Ward, laugh

Ackerson, of Hackensack, the lawyeron
the other side, has got all the money. I
got a mortgage on the farm, and then I
paid the balance and became the owner.
The money I paid went to Ackerson."
"And what have the two farmers got,
Mr.. Ward?"
Nothing. When we began the case
there were two well-off farmers and two
poor lawyers. Now there are two poor

Hurried Dinners.

It is a mistake to eat quickly. Mas
tication performed in haste must be i'm
perfect even with the best of teeth, and
due admixture of the salivary secretion
with the food cannot take place. When
O crude mass Of inadequately crushed
muscular fiber, or undivided solid ma
terial of any description, is thrown into
the stomach, it acts as a mechanical ir-
ritant, and sets up q. condition in the
mucous membrane lining that organ
which greatly impedes, if it does not
altogether prevent, the process of diges-
ton. When the practice Of eating
quickly and filing the stomach with un-
prepared food is habitual, the digestive
organ is rendered incapable Of perform
Ing its proper functions. Either a much
larger quantity of food than would be
necessary under natural conditions is
required, or the system suffers from
lack of nourishment. Those animals
which were intended to feed hurridly
were either gifted with the power Of
rumination or provided with gizzards.
Man is not so furnished, and it is fair to
assume that he was intended to eat
slowly.-London Lancet.

Misses Hats and Caps.

There are three or four favorite hats
and caps for misses that are repeated
in all colors of smooth, rough, or mixed
braids. The o. popular round hat
has a high, narrow crown, with tn
brim turned up closely in the front and
sides, and narrower still behind. The
brim is faced with velvet, and there is
a bunch of standing loops in front,
made of wide gauze ribbon or of a
canvas scarf, or else velvet ribbon is
used as if tying a bunch of flowers
there. The second favorite shape is a
| peaked brim of small size, worn very
far forward on the head, and trimmed
with a wreath of daisies or rose-buds or
buttercups, or else with thickly clustered
loops of ribbon forming a band around
the crown. Another trimming fol-
these pointed bonnets is an elongated
rosette made of canvas ribbons or Of
gauze ribbons that have one edge
s%calloped. The English turban, o.
straw, with rosettes or wings in front,
and the Tam O Shanter cap, also o.
straw, with a velvet bow and quilts, are
suitable for young misses.-Harper'!

WE most heartily endorse hespirit
and sentiment of an article from the
Jackson Tribune and Sun, under the
head of "Yom Kippur," which Will
be found in another column. We do
not believe there are any differences
between Democrats in Tennessee too
broad to be overcome by friendly
concessions. The bulk of the Democ-
racy of the State are harmonious
enough; all the quarreling has been
among the newspapers, and in these
wordy contests, some of which have
been quite bitter, we do not believe
the papers have truly represented the
people. Let the newspapers only
quit their quarreling; and show a dis
position to concede their extreme
views, and when the party meets in
convention next year-whether one
or two conventions be held-there
will be no trouble in concentrating
the entire Democracy of the State
into a solid front to combat the COM
mon enemy-Republicanism The
questions of difference in the party
should be discussed in a calm, dispas-
sionate manner, without the use of
disagreeable epithets, and with the
honest purpose Of developing the real
and true wishes of the majority. The
STANDARD has no war to make upon
Democrats, and no harsh comment
upon the candid expression of honest
conviction by any Democratic paper.
We favor the harmony, not only of
the party, but of the party press, and
will exert our best efforts to that end.

Tullahoma Guardian.
Commissioner Robert Gates, who
has recently returned from a trip to
the North and West, writes us that a
large number of excurtionists from
the North will be in Middle Tennes-
see sometime in November and will
spend a day or so in Tullahoma, the
exact date will be given hereafter.
The party will be composed of "capi-
talists, home-seekers, newspaper cor
respondents and prominent men from
the North, who will make run over
Middle Tennessee, that they may see
the country and people, be induced
to invest and settle and widely adver-
tise our State" The Commissioner
says, "That the largest measure OF
success may be obtained, it is eX-
pected that your people will give pub
lie receptions, afford facilities for see
ing the country around your town
and during the short stay of the party
entertain them free of charge. A few
hours or a day will be the longest
stay at any one place"
