REPORT oFTEMPERATUREF FOR RUGBY, TENN.

Rugby Lodge, F. & A. M, held
the annual election of officers at
their regular monthly meeting in tn e
Lodge Room on Saturday afternoon
last. The following were elected:
R. Walton w. M, G. W. Berry S.W
Sol. Giles J. W., c. Onderdonk Sc
cretary, F. C. Fisher Treasurer, G.
P. Kemp S. D, j. WEIGH J D. and
J. Fletcher Tyler. Messrs. Tricky
of Rugby Road. and R. Ewing and
Correll, of Robbins, were candi-
dates for admission to the Lodge.
After the business was concluded
the Brethren adjourned to the Com
missary Hall to partake of a cold
collation.. Judge J. Z. Parker, of
Sunbright Lodge and "Ye Ed tor
were guests Of the Lodge.
After ample justice had been
done to the good things provided
the toast Of Rugby Lodge was
duly honored. Then came the New
Members" but the initiatory pro-
ceedings seemed to have been too
much for their equanimity, and they
one and all begged to be excused
The toast of the ''Sunbright
Lodge" coupled with the name OF
Judge Parker, was very we'll receiv-
ed, and that gentleman replied in q
neat speech, his remarks being es-
pecially complimentary to Rugby
and its inhabitants The Press
was briefly responded to by the
Editor.
Bros. Milmow, Giles, and Pierce
also made speeches, denounciny the
false impressions prevailing in this
section of the country that Masons
were in the habit of interfering
with justice, and shielding their
members, even when guilty. On this
subject Bro. Walton also made a
telling speech, saying that no Mason
had ever been known to be hung, it
being the invariable rule of the
Order to anticipate the law, and
pass judgment of suspension or ex-
pulslon on it's members, when prov
ed guilty.
The proceedings we've enlivened
by songs by Messrs. Ewings, Fisher,
Milmow and Moore, and very
pleasant evening was thoroughly en-
joyed by those present.

AMERICAN ENTERPRISE.

No invention Of the nineteenth cen
fury has worked greater revolution
in household economy or conferred NOR:
Of benefit on humanity than the sew
i'm machine.
The first productions were crude and
uncouth in the extreme, and it was re.
served fol American skill and ingenuity
to bring forth am ,chine Of any practi
cal value.
In order to appreciate the great ad-
vancement which has taken place it Is
only necessary to c'mpare one of the
machines built during the infancy of
the invention with one of the latest i'm
proved "Light Running New Home"
All the really good points contained
in other machines have been utilized in
it's construction. Mlny new improve
ments and devices have also been added
the result of which is machine as
nearly perfect as it is possible to make
one,
For simplicity, durability, ease of
managementand capacity for work, the
"Lght-Running New Home" has no ri
val, and the happy possessor of one may
rest assured that he or she has the very
hest the world affords.

One Lives, The Other Died.

woman formerly our slave is now our cook.
About eighteen mouths ago she became slckly
and had cough and was confined to bed, and 1t
was thought that she had consumption. The
treatment by physicians failed 10 give relief. In
December 1884, node or knot the size OF a
goose egg formed just above the pit of the stom-
ach, which when laneed discharged matter for
or months. One of these also formed under
her arm and three ON her back, which discharg-
ed matter for a considerable time For six
months OF this time she was confined to the
house, and most of the time in bed The stom-
ach often refused food, by rejecting what she
had eaten. She used great deal OF medicine,
but failed to be cured. bought one bottle of
your B. b. B. (mado in Atlanta, Ga) and gave it
to her and she commenced to improve. | then
bought and gave her three bottles more, and she
continued to improve and in two months time
her cough had ceased, her constitution strength
ened, appetite and digestiongood, all discharges
ceased nodes or knots disappeared and she
went to work apparently healthy and fattened
up greatly.
This woman had married sister of near same
age who was affected in precisely the same way
and about the same time. She had node OF knot
on pit of stomach, back, etc. She did not take
any B. B. B. and the node on her stomach ate
through to the cavity. She continued on the
decline and wasted away, and finally died.
These were two terrible eases of blood poison,
lone used B. B. b. and was speedily eured-the
other did not fuse it and died 1t is most assured,
ly amost wonderful blood purifier. I refer to
merchants of this town. Yours truly,

Our Young Men.

The question is constantly being
asked by the anxious parents of the
community. "What can we do to
save our young men?"
One Of two things is true-the young
men OF the town are more wayward,
and dissipated than they have ever
been before, or they are less private
and secret about it. The truth of eth
er of these propositions should alarm
every parent in the place. 1t is often
the subject OF remark, that so few OF
our young men take any interest in
the young mems prayer meeting, or
habitually and regularly attend
Church. Such course upon the
part of any young man will sooner or
later tell upon his morals Every
young man in this community is get
ting better or worse, and a few years
will reveal the fact to the public
The young man who stays away from
Church and keeps late hours, will soon
develop into a profane drunkard and
gambler, and will no longer seek tc
keep his crimes secret.
In view OF these terrible facts, what
ought the churches and the parents Of
the town do? Something must be
done and we call on our ministers tc
lead in this matter.-"A Friend" III

Berlin Letter to N. Y. Sun.
Out of a population of 200 900 in
Berlin more than 150, 600 are receiv-
ing public charity. Many of the
workingmen here openly favor com
munity of wives. Divorces have in
creased to 15 percent of the marriages
solemnized. The attendance at the
churches has decreased to 9 percent
of the adult population, and of 4S, 900
funerals last year nearly 10000 were
performed without any religious GER
emCnies whatever.
Women flock by thousands to the
city to obtain employment, and. fail
ing to get what they want, large
numbers fall and are lost. This evil
has become so great that strenuous
efforts are being made to avoid it..
The law of consent has already been
raised in a similar way as it was done
in New York and in England. By
such legislative enactment some sort
of protection is extended to girls up
to the age of IS. Lodging houses and
benevolent institutions have been es.
tablished to aid working women, ,and
society of ladies has been formed
charged with protecting, sustaining
and counseling women up to the age
of 80.
