How David Crockett Lived.

A writer in the Nashville Union says:
al swan the Obion river in 1923 to get to
stay all night with him. He was then
living on the banks Of that beautiful
stream and eating the meat by the crack
of his rifle. Hunting was the only Wis
ible means of support he had, not
withstanding he had then been several
times in the Legislature. We had bear
meat for supper that night, and the
epicurean implements used were a
butCher-knife and u cane fork. Crock
ett's manner of living was truly west
ern. Hunting was the theme he loved
most to dwell upon. He told me that
night he had killed Il bears during the
winter, and am satisfied he had killed
some, for | slept on a bear skin that
night, and If Davy had bed in his
house | never saw it,

Scarcely day passes that the daily press
is not called upon to chronicle the sudden
death OF some man or woman. General
McClelen goes ont for drive, comes homo
and dies in his chair. VIM. H. Vanderbilt
is conversing with Mr.. Garrett of the Balti-
more and Ohio Il. X. in his own house, and
suddenly falls to the floor dead. A prom
inent citizen of Louisville hastens to catch a
train at the depot, and dies before the train
leaves the station. A well known society
lady of Baltimore, while dancing at re-
ceptiOn, suddenly becomes faint, and before
she can be conveyed from the room has
ceased to breathe These are few of the
sudden deaths of which we hear, but the
vast number of which We do not hear is
thousands. Are they all caused by heart
disease? Do the mysterious bcatings of that
delicate instrument, that works day and
night without ceasing, stop of their own &C
cord. and thus bring death at once
Physicians are unanimous in agreeing
that when the beating of the heart become s
faint and irregular or unusual, n gentle but
tOning stimuant must be employed. If this
stimulant is of the proper kind it brings
the action of the heart to its proper state
and thus tides 1t over a dangerous crisis un-
til it can regain its usual action. But this
stimulant should not be of a strong nature.
Liquor is dangerous rather than helpful
1t should be a stimulant which nOurishes Us
well as stimulates, and this is precisely what
the remarkable Volina Cordial does. Com
posed, as it is of pure and simple vegetable
ingredients it contains just those elements
which, while stimulating the heart and other
organs Of the body, still furnish food for the
blood, strength for the nerves, and Wig r
for the whole body.
These are not remarks given at random,
but serious and earnest truths demanded by
facts and confirmed by scientists. There
are hundreds of men and women in their
graves to day, who might be alive and happy
had they known the above truths and acted
upon them in time, and it is painful to
think of the intense suffering, extensive sick
ness and vast number Of deaths, all of which
might have been avoided if people had only
realized and known. To all who read these
lines we most earnestly say, examine your
system, note your symptoms, keep this
remedy, which has been proven purest, best
and most efficient, constantly on hand, and
DO not delay.

The attempt to give republican bias

The General Assembly Of the knights
Of Labor In session at Richmond are
keeping an open eye upon the indus
trial movements Of the country, while
they are in session. They have re-
quested the Chicago packing company
and the Cohoes and Amsterdam N. Y.
factory bosses to postpone a lockout
until conference can be had with a
special committee Of the order which
will be sent for conference. They have
also protested against the national post
Office authorities letting the contract at
Baltimore, for the public building, to
parties employing convict labor, and
have requested the postal powers to
bar bids from those employing convict
labor. This is q commendable move.
The republican party is pledged against
the employment Of convict labor in pub
Lilo buildings, and the nation itself is
theoretically committed to employ only
free American labor in the public con-
structiOns. Put the theory into actual
practice.

The prediction was made by a staunch

that the republican Taylor would carry
that state against his democratic broth

picture Of the campaign, which he said
was being very largely fought upon the

passage Of the bill. ALI Tsylor's pre-
