Better than Bank Stock.

Mr.. ]. B. Knott, of Nashville, is
now in McMinnville exhibiting the
Van Pelt Double Action Force Pump.
Thispump combines simplicity, dura-
bility and efficiency, and very high
testimonials are given of its merits.
1t will draw water from any depth
and force it over any ordinary build
ing, making it very valuable in case
of fire. Mr.. Knott is selling county
rights, and some live man can make
a lucrative business by taking hold of
it. 1t is something much needed in
our place, and we hope some one will
buy the county, and sell a number Of
them in the business portion of town.
They would give us a good fire pro-
lection.

ty. If all the breath which has been
expended on the question in the
County could be marketed for cash at
one cent per cubic foot, the product
would build the sixty miles of pike
roads necessary to make old Warren
one of grandest Counties in the State.
She is hard to beat as it is, but what
grand step in the march of progress
these sixty miles of pike roads would
make.
Lovers of the beautiful in nature
will find pictures of enhancing love.
illness if they will turn their eyes for
restward now. There isa richness of
gorgeous coloring and a variety of
autumnal shades and tints which no
artists brush can successfully repro
duce. A trip to the mountain just
now will well repay anyone for the
exertion. In a short time another
transformation will begin; the blight
ing tongues of frost will soon COM
mence their work of changing the
bright carmines and vermillions into
sober yellows and browns, and the
grand old monarchs of the noun
tains will shake down their leafy
treasures to be gathered into the
bosom of mother earth through the
process of winters decay. A won
derful world of beauty lies all around
us which thousands fail to appreciate.
Many people cover their walls with
miserable daubs of pictures and call
them pretty, and yet fail to catch the
splendor of the beauty with which
nature surrounds them on every side.
Every forest view now presents pic
ture of rarest beauty, and every
mountain steep panorama Of sur
passing loveliness.

The season for discussing the
feasibility of building pike roads in
Warren County is fast approaching.
Six inches of mud Oh the public high
ways is productive of much thought
upon this important topic. Thought
generally finds expression in words

terialize into actions. So far, how
ever, the road to Faulkner's factory
