Miss Cora NJ Bynum and to say that those who
witnessed il had grand treat, would not be re-
fecting enough credit upon 1t. 1t was indeed
wonderful to see the smaller ones recite so diff

Bile 1t showed plainly that they had given their
pieces deep study. All the boys recited their
pieces well, but will have to give space to the
First was the recitation entitled: 1.-THE New
Church Organ" by Miss Sallie Walton. The wri-
ter is no "Eloeutor' bat can truthfully say that
IL was indeed grand. ''oueen Vashti's Lament
by Miss Priscilla Marsh was rendered with sx-
ouisite sweetness. and when she appeared upon
the stage atertain young mans countenance was

was made for life time, but made from (y)ear

rendered with more sweetness than Miss Ruth
Rufhn did. The Dialogue.entitled: THE Society
for the Suppression Of Gossip" by thu young
ladies of the school. To see that, fully convinced
us that the word Gossip" is only meant for
women. II is said that women talk less during
the month of February, because ii is the shortest
but the young ladies evidently realized that that
was their last chance, as ii was the night Of the
2Sth. and they certainly made the "welkin Iing''
for a few minutes. The recitation; Easter
Morning by Miss Louise Marsh was indeed very
good. "The Shadow of His Wing by Miss Laura
Blair, was very grand, 10 hear her recite and at
intervals hear the sweet refrain OF eSus Lover of

Miss Dolly Walton's rendition OF 1.-THE Widow
Piper" caused great deal Of laughter. But one
Of the finest Rotations was that OF Miss Eleanor
Blair, entitled "Mona's Waters. To say she did
admirably well would not do her justice. In the
Dialogue: "SOngs of Seven" we win make espec-

Address by Rev W. c. Alexander, who held the

that have improved-adganced in

not wish to excite the envy of any

superadded to the sensation of exhal-

that spring from dissatisfaction.

am not satisfied with the winter =
no snow, no ice, no bowling wind,
no roaring fires, no frost bites.
Long time ago when all things
were satisfactory, winter and were
great friends. l would play in the
snow and "skeet on the ice and
oltentimes sit down on it hard. /
don't know whether the clerk of the
weather has taken his cue from
Tom Reeds unusual rulings, or, as
some insist, whether the earthquake
"shoved the whole yerth' several
hundred miles farther south. Any
how, I'm dissatisfied with the con-
dition and with the explanation
too. Also, / am bad enough dIssat-
isfied with the changes In men,
places and things. but a whale of a
sight more so with the change in
my pocket. These instances are
enough for usual mortais; but my
Gro wning disaster lies in the fact
that there is a quartette Of old friends

shake hands with and laugh with.
often think of how Capt. Savage
worked his way into the show by
drawing water for the elephant and
the sea lion all one Sunday .af-
ternoon. low old man Warren
fixed up such nice box of candy
(makIng out it was a birthday
present for grand child) and gave
it to the fat woman in the same
show. How Squire Fort lived
about a month on the best apples
in the market-the poor orphan that
bought and sent them never dream
lug but what his GIL ate them. ]
think of this even now with a moan
and sigh. How the boys dreaded
to see Gen. Nicely mixing with fe-
lows on the sidewalk, for they knew
that he was fixing up some plot,
setting or batting n trap for some
one, and he most always had some
fellow in strings. In the midst Of
all this dissatisfaction and notwith
stan ding the fact that l have a very
poor way of helping myself, 1 still
have one chance-I can do the
next best thing, which is TO stop.

Can Scirrhus Cancer be cureds

This is hard question to an
swer. Swift's Specific has cured
thousands of cases of Skin Cancer
and there have been many cases
of ScIrrhus Cancer reported cured
by it. We do say that S. S. :.
is worth trial in case of cancer.
We append statement from Miss
Green, of Tallapoosa, Ga:
In '84 [ had small lump in my
left breast, which proved to be a can
Ger. The first remedy I tried was to
have it burned off. This did not
cure 1t, for shortly afterwards it
broke out again in a much worse
form. 1 then consulted our drug
gist who advised me to try Swift's
Specific Is. S. ~, and after taxi
ing about one dozen bottles, was
completely cured, and my general
health was greatly improved. This
has been over six years ago, and
my cancer has never appeared since,
nor has it troubled me in any way.
[ cheertully recommend SwIft's
Specific Is. S. So to any one suffer
ing with cancer.

IT is a source of sincere cnngrat-
ulatlon to every friend of education
to know that our public free schools
in Hardeman county are in such a
fourishing condition and 80 greatly
improved. Hardly a civil district
in the county but has a first class
public school, where the children of
the poor can be taught and taught
without cost or charge. I'm many
of the schools regular normal grad
yates are employed and a marked
improvement is noticeable through
out the county in the school system.
Let us foster and encourage this
greatest boon to our children and
perpetuate and improve it to our
children's children after us. A
good education is a better legacy
than great riches.

Convention has been in session at
Nashville this week. Delegates
were present from every state in the
UuiCn. Ofcourse the republican
party and its leaders were lauded to
the skies and the prosperity of
the country attributed to them.
Nashville was selected as the meet
ing place in the hope that it would
have tendency to make a repubii-
ban state of Tennessee. Common
decency demanded that they be
treated with courtesy, which was
done; but if they expected TO make
converts among the intelligent peo~

party, they were mistaken. Our

The report that the Levy Court of

no Democrats In the jury boxes from
which the jury panels must be selected
should be received with large degree

OF Republican outrages upon the help
less Democrats OF Sussex only hold
good while they remain uncontra.
dicted. II the report turns out to be
true We are prepared to condemn the
action, even though the Republicans
may be following the Democratic pre-
cedent Of shutting out Republicans.
We recollect the tima when there was
not single Republican juryman on
the panels from Wilmington. This
Was when Levy Courtman Carswell
Oh Wilmington was sick and unable to
s,tend and Levy Courtman w. G.

formed his duties. We disapproved

pose such sections in Sussex county
