The European Plan.

Marriage is something of alottery'
unless the woman happens to be an
actress. In that case the husband
knows about what to expect--that
the wife, about the time they begin
to get acquainted, will want to get
a divorce and return to the stage
The man who marries an actress
should therefore understand thai
he marries her on what might bt
termed the European plan.

To the Teachers Of Warren County.

Our County Superintendent has APP
pointed an Institute to be held dur
ing the last week of June. 1t is very
important that every person who in
tends to teach a Free School in this
county should be prompt in attend
ing at the opening on Monday, and
in attending punctually during the
week. The chances that some teach
ers have, of obtaining a certificate
will depend, partially, upon their at
tendance at the Institute. The State
Superintendent, aided bynearly allthe
County Superintendent, is striving
to elevate the standard of education
in Tennessee, and to require higher
degree of qualification for a certifi-
cate.
Our teachers must strive to improve
themselves. Those who are now
"making crop" must spend their
leisure hours in brushing up" and
they must try to learn all that it is
possible to learn, by attending the
Institute. U -.#r t
All the managers of the Institute
will work diligently to make it as
interesting and as profitable as posi-
BILE. Every applicant for certificate
is earnestly solicited to bring to the
Institute the following books Web
ster's Elementary Spelling Book,
Rays Arithmetic, Third Part, the
Old and the New, Reed & Kellogg's
Higher Lessons in English, Barnes
Large Geography, Barnes History
of the U. S., McGuffey's New Fifth
Reader, and a Testament. Bring,
also, Jayne's Almanac for 1889. An
effort will be made to obtain some
copies of Barnes Geography, for the
use of members of the Institute, from
the families in town, who have pat
ronised the Public School for the
past two years.
Every applicant can have a sepa-
rate desk in which he can keep his
books and papers. j. z. CLARK.

for his bride most lovable and ac-

who know her for many charms and
virtues, and we but utter the senti-

rest lightly upon them, and the pass
ing years mellow their attachment
into an ever increasing devotion and
usefulness to each other.

Ont Down a Tree 700 Years old.

The old dead oak tree at Waltham,
Mass, which no less authority than Pro.
fes.or Alexander Agassiz said was 700
years old, has been cut down, because 1t
stood in the path Of modern improve
ments. This tree, mex to the one at
Woodbridge, was regarded as the oldest
on the Atlantic coast. The latter also
was cut down a few weeks ago, after a
supposed existence of l 800 to Z, 600 years,
and is to be made into chairs for the
Quinniniac club, of New Haven. DR..
Holmes has given it as his opinion that
this tree was at least l, 800 years old, and
Professor Abbott, who examined the
monster oak eighteen years ago, said it
could not be less than 1000 years old,
while Professor Eaton stands with these
authorities by estimating its age from
|, 500 to 1000 years.

crease as compared with the year 1888.
1t shows that the coal product, although
vet far from as valuable as the product
of the silver mines, is an important add
ton to the wealth of the state. 1t may
require many years for the coal supply
to equal in value the present output of

They Are Really Small Grapes Gath
cred in the Grecian Archipelago.

ere0 In the archipelago.
A frequent error among those inter
ested in cookery, according TO Harper's
Bazaar, is to suppose that the imported ar.
ticle called currants, used in fruit cakes,
mince pies, plum puddings, buns, and the
like, are q fruit resembling our own black
or red currants dried. In reality these
dried fruits which we call currants are
just as much raisins as anything That is
offered under that specific name, being
only q dried grape, although of An ex-
ceedingly small variety, each grape no
bigger than a common Yea, and each
bunch but two or three inches long.
These little grape punches are picked and
dried In the sun, and are so full OF
saccharine matter that the u
ing sugar crystalizes them Into
a compact form of sufficient
hardness to require considerable strength
to open the mass and prepare the fruit
for packing, they being then q second
time compressed, this time by means of
treading with the feet, which process
perhaps accounts for a good deal OF the
dirt and gravel usually to be found
packed with them. The grapes grow all
through the islands and adjacent regions
of the Grecian Archipelago, they were
called at first coIinths, which word was
gradually corrupted into %currants, till the
primitive plant and its fruit were for
gotten in the remembrance Of the little
round berry Of our W gardens, which
might be dried from now till doomsday
without developing enough sugar to mel
them together as we find the Zante cur
rants melted.
