This should be most carefully guarded
against with children. These little Great
ures are tender and delicate aud fragile;
they are deeply sensitive TO thousand
and one matters OF which grovn-up per-
son would take no notice. Their compre-
hension is so limited that they forget that
things which are so plain to us are great
problems TO them, and. in our impotence,
we frequently show the greatest injustice.
This injustice the child keenly feels, vet
cannot reason about--it only knows, in a
dumb kind of way, that it Is not SO wrong
as il is said to be, and a sullennsss and
obstinacy of disposition are frequently
produced or fostered in this way.

Local and Personal Matters in Brief
from an Occasional Correspondent

MORRISON, TENN, Feb. 29.-Our
little town was thrown into consider
able excitement last week by the pro-
longed notes of a bugle sounding
somewhere in our borders. We had
no thought of old terra coming to an
end, but from curiosity we all rushed
impetuously out of doors to learn the
cause of those sounds, and walking
peacefully came two Italians leading
two bears. Pshaw, that was all.
Presley Hendricks moved into his
new house this week.
Zebedee Balm and family boarded
the train here Tuesday afternoon,
bound for Tracy City, where they
will remain for while at least. Any
body else going from Morrison to
Tracy City?
The family of James Edwards,
from Indiana, arrived here a few days
ago, and he will come the first of
March. They report cold, severe
winter up North. IN
Rev. j. C.Haley, of Noah, arrived
here on the train Saturday noon, and
went to Hickory Grove on Sunday.
Ed. Davenport was not satisfied with
one sermon, but accompanied his
Reverence on Sunday. We were all
much interested in the sermon, and
would beg Bro. Haley to come again.
Harry Mcbride, of Noah, formerly
one of our leading men in Morrison,
had the misfortune to get his thigh
broken few days ago by his horse
falling down with him.
DR.. Carson's services are constantly
in demand and he reports his patients
doing well.

something we need. Wish some

situation right away.
