A Song of Gratitude.

In olden times, Bethesda's pool
Was famed for healing ali Diseases;
Once plunged beneath is waters cool,
Each evil, stain and sickness ceases.
10 modern days we find cure,
Of worth as rare, as much deserving:
A remedy safe, quick and sure,
DR.. Riehmond's SAMARITAN NERvuE.
For Epilepsy, Spa ms, FoVsrs, Coles, Cramps,
CouL hs. COLDS, or any kind OF Phthysic;
Its merit as leader stamps
IL far above all other physics,
Il goes at once right 10 tho spot
Where turks the danger, never swervinR;
In all tho world perhaps there's not
cure like DR.. Richmond's NERvI,E.
As in the blood Diseases lie;
Each artery, each VEN, each curve in;
There's nothing makes in humor fly,
Like the SAMARITAN NERvIEE.
For old OF young, for rich or poor,
Whatever class of life you serve 10,
10 health vide oPeu u the door,
from the ShEARiTAs NERvIkE.
Then, do you value strength and health,
And think these blessings worth preserving.
Better than all GOleondR's wealth.
Is DR.. Richmond SAMARITAs NERvfNE
Grigsby sells it.

In an other column we publish an
article by 6, w. Curtiss of the Gale
ma Industrial Press which will be
of some interest to readers who wish
TO know what kind Of an impression
We make on visitors. 1t will also
serve to show how necessary good
free school is to the success of any
town whose growth and prosE Gritty
depend on the attraction it can Of
fer TO immigrants. Mr.. Curtiss was
naturally disposed to enlarge on the
obvious iuadequacy of our public
school system. since his visit 10 our
CITY we have established a public
school system lRuthOrized by spe-
.cial act of the Iegislature) which is
neither paralyzed by lack Of funds
nor bedged about by unnecessary
restrictions. About 800 pupils are
now in regular attendance at the
pubiic school fer white children
and about the same number at the
eolored school. The white school
has the use of Giles College, large
handsome brick building with am
ple grounds. The colored school is
taught in one of the colored church
es. The fund at the disposal of
the school board is Rbout $1,000
per annum. The present faculty
was judiciously selected without
fear or favor, and Pulaski can now
point with pride to it's public
schools. It has always been justly
proud of is private schools and
never with better reason than to-
day. The man who Games here
docking for a home cannot fail to be
impressed by our educational adj
yantages.
WHAT Mr.. Curtiss says about Mr..
white as a progressive farmer will
readily be endorsed by all who have
observed his methods and their
good results.
Mr.. Curtis is unfortunate Ia his
manner of describing our location
by giving our distance from COlum-
bia. He should have said Pulaski
is eighteen miles south of Lynn
Vile. Pulaskians all know where
Lynnville is.

On bench in 9 school room, . dear little

While from inside his deRk he took out
whispo s the puzzle Mikado.~
Quite under his breath, to boy who sat

"'Tis that puzzle, = he said, switch all find
very queer,
You'll never be able to make out, fear,
This MikAdo, Mikako, Mikado.
Then both of these dear little school boys,
they played
This game called Mikado, Mikado,
So slyly they felt not the least bit afraid,
That the teacher would spy their Mikado /.
While they counted their moves and they
took of their rings,
All unheedful how quickly time flies on
his wings
In these hours when lessons and such hor-
rid things
Must be done instead of Aikado.
And when their turns CO me, ala-l wha
could they both say,
When the teacher sang out, ooh, Mikado!H
'You two bad little boys, can see you're
Over there with the puzzle MikadO.
Bring it herel" and the culprits, with fear in
eachlface,
Took his way to the master, expecting dis
grace,
But he sent them instead essh one to his
rlsce,
While he played for himself the MikAdo.

of that bar, distinguished for its
able lawyers. He practiced at
Trenton and Union City and in the
supreme and federal court at Jack
son until he became a member of
the court of referees at Nashville in
May. 1883. In his chosen profess
sion he has exhibited the same
earnestness of purpose, the same
careful diligence, and the same in
telligence and enthusiasm that dis
tingnished him when he sought an
education. No amount of complex
ity or of detail can daunt him. No
point of law, however knotty or
hard 10 unravel, can exhaust his
patience. Carefully, quietly, per-
sistently, tirelessly, he works at 1T
until'he conquers the difficulty and
makes the whole matter plain. He
has a calm and even temper that
makes him always kind, courteous
and forbearing. He is a man OF
upright moral character, christian
gentleman. Take him all in all,
his native ability, his legal culture,
his studious and laborious habits,
his earnestness of purpose, his pa

personal character, and few can
match him in the qualifications that

We trust that the high honor in
connection with which his name is

conferred upon him we feel ar

friends all over West Tennessee who
know his worth and who will stand
by him and press his name. His
support in Middle Tennessee, We
have reasons 10 believe, is no less
strong and enthusiastic.
