Andrew JaCksOn's Home.

The proposition which has been
made, and which is now before the
legislature, to tender the Hermitage
acres. the property Of the state of
Tennessee, to the United States govern
ment, for the purpose of having built
thereon home for the soldiers of the
war of 1912, the Floridian war, the
Mexican war, and all wars prior to the
late Confederate war, is now before the
Tennessee legislature.
The other day Legislative committee
went out to the Hermitage to "spy
out the property, and their arrival
and their presence quite completely
broke up the quiet colored people To-
Gated on "old marster's farm"
They came to town to see Gov. Bate
about it. They had heard that the
farm was to be sold, and its occupants
turned out to shift elsewhere. The
speaker of the delegation was Uncle
Alfred jackson, now S2 years old, one
lie was in great trouble. He said to
the governor:
"Gin'l Bates, Idone heard dat you re
gwine to turn all us old Jackson Mig
gers out, and come here for to find
out about it.
"Pshaw, Alfred Somebody has
been fooling you," said Gov. Bate.
"Don't trouble yourself; 90 home and
rest contented. You can live at the
Hermitage long time yet, and l will
see that you are not disturbed"
The old darky took the governors
assurance with such good grace, and
seemed SO well satisfied with the turn
things had taken, the World reporter
ventured to pump him as to Gen.
Jackson's pecuiaritics.

One Thing He Can't Understand. .

"One thing l can't understand" said
young husband to-day, sis how quick
a woman can forget some things. A
year ago, when | was courting my wife,
! had only to say music, and she was
ready to knock a spawned old piano
her father owned clear off its legs; but
now that she has 5000 article
bought her with contribution taken
up among the Blaine boys last fall, I
can't get her to play even the simplest
tune. She's so out of practice, and
can't remember note She remem-
bers all the fool things used to say to
her, and throws them at me pat enough
when l don't happen to agree with her
views of life, but when it comes to re-
membering the accomplishments that
brought out the compliments, she can't
be depended on. What a pity it is that
young people cant go on courting al
ways, resting satisfied with the assur-
ance that their respective parents were
married. -Mill0aukee Journal.

Gods Ofthe Heather.

! find that gods were quite common
as far back rs the days Of Adam, from
which | am led to infer that tho Yam
KEGS are not entitled to the honor of in
venting them. The Chinese have gods
three or four thousand years old, and
there is not gray hair or wrinkle in
their heads. One would naturally
think that a god three thousand years
old would be pretty well worn and a
little bit out of style, but the Chinese
claim that warmcd-over gods, original
ly made out of fire clay, and freshly
vanished are just as good as new.
People who have always had god of
their own---a sort of private god laid
away where it will always be handy in
case of an emergency-sa they would
not be without one for four dollars.
They maintain that a private god is
much more attentive and punctual in
attending to business than public god,
which is very much overwOrked in
the busy seasons, particularly during
political campaigns and the chilblain
season.
There Is considerable difference Of
opinion as to the merits of the various
kinds of gods. The Chinese are pecu-
liarly fond of little two by seven
wooden god that can be carried around
in the overcoat pocket, where it can be
reached in an instant in case anything
serious should happen. In case of
flood or earthquake, the owner Of such
q god whips him out of his pocket like
q self-cocking revolver, and sets 1t be.
tween himself and all danger. 1t is
said that fellow can find gods enough
to start Chinese heaven with along
some of the river banks in China. They
have been washed ashore after their
proprietors were drowned in freshet.
1t must be very humiliating to man
to see his god floating around him and
leaving hlm to drown, in spite of all
his supplications. 1t must look as If Q
man had got hold of an ungrateful and
selfish one-horse god that is careless
aud slovenly in looking after his bus
mess.
The Aztecs' or mound builders gods
were plain clay. BY making their
heads hollow and attaching stems to
their stomachs, they could be readily
utilized as tobacco pipes, and those
who have smoked them say they are
Just as good as any other plain, barn
yard style of pipe. An Aztec god was
never an ordinary kind of a fellow. He
was not considered first-class unless he
had seven fingers or toes, or a pretty
good-sized tail, and he would not stand
the climate unless ha was well baked.

Lord Wolseley has the sight OF out

the trenches before Sebastopol, a shell
exploded in gabiOn full of gravel, in
moving which he and two sappers
were engaged. The sappers were
both killed outright; Wolseley got SO
severe peppering with the gravel
that he was literally stuck full ofstones

Excitement over a Marvellous Cure In

Excitement over Marvellous Cure In
England.-The newspapers OF Great Britain
are filled with accounts OF the wonderful re-
covery of young man who had been so i'll
with asthma and rheumatism that he was moi
able to lie down in bed for nine long years
This cure was due to the Shakers of Mount
Lebanon, N. Y. They say that this, like
nearly all others, WAS the result of indiges-
tion. and that the Shaker Extract of Roots
(Siegers Syrup) ifected this wonderful cure
by r. storing the digestive organs to healthy
condition, oovia,ing entirely those disagreea-
BILE turns of sick headache, biliousness, &c.
The Shakers say they have spent f'ty years
in ?erfecting this remedy for Dyspepsia, and
that its fleet upon the digestive organs is
something wonderful. For diseases of the
throat or lungs they recommend the Shaker
Tar Capsules
