REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS.

The following are the real estate transfers
recorded in the Office of register of deeds
yesterday:
The Milan exchange. (Milan, Gibson County, Tenn.) 1874-1978, 1886-11-06
Health and Work,

There are many persons in the world
whose only capital is health. They are
engaged in work Of various kinds, and
so long as health lasts they earn good
living. They must learn how to AVOID
illness by living in the right way.
Others there are who have lived wrongly
in youth, but have found out their er.
rors in time to have fairly good con.
stitution left. These may live to a ripe
old age BEAUTIFULLY, if they only take
care. Others there are with every
thing that riches can give; these must
learn to live rightly, too, if they want
to be well. Plain food, exercise, etc,
will enable these to live long, as they
are 1not troubled by the necessity Of
work so that they may live. Wealth
comes not from our income, but from
the amount we save of it; so health
comes not from the amount we have to
90 on with, but from the amount we
save, by not spending it on tribes which
waste our strength and give us no re
turn.-Dr. T. r. Allison.

OUR WEDDING TRIP.

Our wedding day, dear Johns and mine,
At last, at lust had come;
When we as two should cease to be,
And love and live as one.
How eagerly we talked about
The plac g where we d go.
All maiden fear was lulled to rest,
We loved each other so.
The words we're said hat made us one
We wept our last goodbyes.
Ger summer seas we sa led and sailed
To lands with bluer skies
Where Amos waters swiftly slip
Meath Ponte VecchlO's stones;
Where santa CrOce marble saints
Watch DER her honOred bones;
Where CLEAN the gems Of art divine
On church and palace walls;
Where on the ear the Sistine chant
Like seraph music alls.
Across fair Naples azure bay,
Where Capri's smiling shore
WOos those WHO love to feast for aye,
Never TO wander more
Through all that land of art and song,
Where love holds sway supreme,
We roamed and qualied LIES richest draught
And lived as in dream.
Was this indeed our wedding trip?
No. Only what we talked
We went from mothers house to Johns,
And John and | both walked.

SUPERIOR TO ANYTHING.

WISDOM OF CHIEF ARrmuR.

The following gems of sense and wis.,
dom are CLEANED from the address deliv-
| cred by Chief Arthur Ct the recent Loco
motive Engineers Convention in New
York:
Ifyou would have name, fame or wealth,
work for them.
Right is the only foundation upon
which a man can build.
The workingman of to-day may be the
capitalist Of five or ten years from now.
No man has right to anything which
does not come to him through the chan
mel of honest requirement.
There is room enough for every man in
a country like this, and every man dis.
posed to work must be allowed to find the
chance.
Have an object in live let it be exalted
as possible, and if backed by strong de-
termination and honest endeayor. believe
me, you will attain it.
We have no sympathy for nor cooper
alton with any class or set of men who
base their claims upon the principle that
might is right and the rich owe the poor
a living.
What we are and what we have ac-
complisbed is the result of long continued,
patient work, and it behooves us to be ex-
tremely cautious how we interest our
selves where there is nothing to gain but
everything to lose.
That good labor organization is a
good thing We maintain, but that hete-
rogenous mass of men engaged in divers
occupations can combine interests salts
factorily to form an organization which
shall serve all, and with equal justice, we
very much doubt.
Much has been said and more written
concerning the antagonism between capi-
tai and labor. To my mind there is no
such thing. Between work and idleness
there has never been any feeling other
than antagonistic, and it is those of the
latter class who are attempting to poison
the minds of the industrious.
There seems to be generally prevalent
an idea that capitalists are rich, whereas
the truth is that no great business enter.
prise is owned and controlled by one man,
but by many, each contributing some
thing toward the mighty whole. l will
venture to say that most men of thrifty,
industrious habits are capitalists.
Neither the capitalist nor the laborer
is wholly wrong. No one will justify
expressions complained of by candid and
industrious workingmen. The simple
statement of their case will command pub
lie sympathy and approval. On the 9TH
er hand, the public at large will promptly
condemn the willful destruction of prop
erty and the interruption of business.
am pleased to know that our relations
with the railway officers are of the most
friendly character, and trust that nothing
will occur to change them in the slightest
degree. The loyalty and devotion to
principles of the brothers employed on
the Texas Pacific and Missouri roads dur
ing the recent strikes have convinced rail-
road managers that contract made with
the Brotherhood will be kept inviolate,
and that they will not hesitate in the fu-
tnra To enteI into one when circumstances
require it.

THE MAN THAT PAYS.

In one of his decisions, as printed in
the Supreme Court Reports, Judge Logan
Z. Bleckly uttered the following novel
truths with regard to the man that pays !:
BLESSED is the man that pays. The
practice of paying promptly and to the
last cent, tends to the cultivation of one
of the most excellent traits of human
character. If debtors were guarded by
their own true interest, on an enlarged
scale, they would be even more clamorous
to pay than creditors are to receive. Ten
der would oe more frequent than calls for
money. Debt is the source of much un-
happiness. The best possible thing to be
done with debt is to pay it,

PROUD OF HIS SISTER.

An exchange relates the case of young
man who was regarded as phenomenon,
because he took his sister to all the best
entertainments, and actually devoted him.
self to her during the lecture and opera
season. Being praised for his unusual at
tentiou to his sister, the young man
promptly and proudly replied:
"No, there's nothing wonderful or ex-
traordinary about it. She is the only
woman l know in whom l have most
thorough confidence. She is always the
same, always very pleasant and affection
ate, and, to tell you the candid truth, | am
afraid she'll go and marry some of those
imitation men around her, and be un-
happy all her life.
"She has nobody else to look to, and
I'll take care she does not have to look to
anybody else. suppose some day gen.
uine man will come along. If he's gen
une man, l won't object Until he does
come, she's good enough for me, and if
every find as good a girl I'll marry her"
The example is most commendable. A
young man would do well to seek his sis
ter's society until he finds another lady as
good.

VALUE OF CHEERFULNESS.

Laughter is one of the best physicians
known, being as necessary as pure air to
invalids, hypochondriacs, sufferers from
nervous exbaustions, and those prostrated
by business cares and mental worries.
He is gay companion, a foe to gloom
and death, for, being disciple of Moliere,
joy, brightness and health accompany him
everywhere. His treatment is simple and
applicable to all ages He never makes
any charge for his services, and he is al
ways ready to come when sent for. His
face wears the brightest of smiles, which
are in themselves better than most of the
drugs in the pharmacopeia for curing
certain diseases, and his presence is suf-
into new life. Invalids should consult
him as often as possible, if they would
tighten their burdens, make their lives
longer and happier, and defy the ap-
preaching hand OF Time, which spares no
one from its withering influence.

"Why, mama? What?" inquired the

Miss Phebe Benedict, of Bethel, seems
to be one of the few people who, in an
emergency, remember what they had
learned for just such occasions. She fell
from boat the other day, went entirely
under water, but on coming up, instead
of throwing her arms over her head and
screaming till she went down again, as
people unable to swim usually do in such
cases, she remained quiet, kept her arms
under water, and was easily got out. She
said afterward that she had read that this
was the thing to do, and simply remem-
bered it and acted on it.-Hartford Cou-
rant

Our frail humanity is so dependent
upon our surroundings-we so need each
others help that we cannot afford to be
other than good neighbors. For however
independent of our fellows we may imag-
inc ourselves to be, there is sure to come
a time when we crave human companion
ship and aid, and then it will be well for
us to have sought "the good folks" who
really and truly live everywhere, If you
only find them."-G Good Housekeeping.

For those who need companions,

That paid for the toll and talent,

Mayor Courtenay reported the amount of

the aldermen how small this sum would
be when divided among the sufferers.
To show he said "the grossest ignorance as
to the needs of the city, it has been delib-
erately suggested that no taxes be levied
next year and the relief fund be used in
stead" As the taxes in 1856 in Charles
ton reached nearly 100000 it is easily
seen how falacious and misleading are
such suggestions.
