The Jonesboro correspondent OF the
Knoxville Journal, 18th inst. says:
David Kitsmiller, a youth of ninety
two summers was in town yester lay
to get marriage license to wed Mrs.
Brown, blushing widow of seventy
summers. Although, "Uncle Davy's"
head is whitened by the frosts Of nine
ty.two winters, he is as active as a
young man OF forty-five.
Years ago when an aged couple
were married, Steve Bowel gave them
the benefit of the following sendoff,
which, owing te its peculiar aptness,
we will now copy for the benefit Of
"Uncle Davy" and his blushing bride
"Tls just-tls one of heavens DEGREES
For men to marry when they please,
Providing they have no living wives
To share their Joys or vex their lives"

Sugar Hill Etiquette.
EDITOR COMET:

EDITOR COMET:
l have been urged frequently by The
society people on Sugar Kill to give
them Il few rules on drawing room anC
club etiquette Below You will fine
some rules which hope will be bene
fetal to the Hill folks
Unless you are extremely brave, bt
careful not to court more than two
girls at one time, and then they should
reside in different towns.
To avoid racket with the old folks
don't kiss your sweetheart in the pres
ence Of her little sister,
1t is not good form for any gentle
man to dance the German with hi
pants rolled up,
Before entering the ball room see
that the tallow on your boots is thor
oughly dried.
1t shows i'll breeding to sit upon the
piano unless invited to do so by the
hostess.
Don't wipe your feet on fine, uphol
stored chairs. They are not made fol-
that purpose.
Unless you are accorded that privi
lege, don't spit tobacco upon the car
pet, lest you should discolor it in some
way, 1t isn't good taste, to say the
least Of it.
If you are invited out to drink tea
make It a rule to be late. 1t pleases
the hostess.
If you are invited to play the &C.
Gordeon or any other musical instru-
ment, don't refuse, even if you have
never seen one before.
When calling upon your best girl,
do not go to sleep. 1t is very embar-
RAISING to her.
If your CORES should bother you at
reception, never sit with your shoes
off. 1t is the worst Of manners, espe-
cially il your socks are like the rest
of young mems.
Babies are allowed to cry in church
this winter,
If you are compelled to sleep in
church, avoid snoring, if possible, as
it annoys the congregation.
1t will be very stylish to chew gum
in church this winter.
It is so cute to see people turn
around on the seats in church to gaze
at those who come in.
The above rules have been written
very hurriedly, and if l have made
any mistake l am willing to correctit
Respectfully, JOSIAH.

COLUMBIAN,

People who are interested in the
evolutlon of language will do we'll
to take notice Of the growing use
Of the word ''Columbian.o 1t be-
gan with the discussion of the pro-
posed Worlds Fair in memory Of
the discovery Of America. This
fair naturally brought the name Of
| Columbus to the minds Of men
and the title coined from it was
given to the fair. It chanced to
correspond in point of time and
Interest with the Pan-American
Congress, and latterly there can
be observed among the rapid
writer's of the press a tendency to
use the words as if Pan-American
land Columbian were in restrict
led sense synonymous. This ten
Gency may possibly continue until
the restrictions are worn away.
Then the clumsy word Pan-Amer-
lean will become obsolete; Amer
.ican will be used to signify that
which belongs to the United
States, while those which are com
mon to the whole Western Con-
tinent and its islands will be call
ed Columbian. At any rate it
will be Interesting to watch the
word and see how it Will be used
three years from nowr when the
Columbian fair is in all its glory
and Pan-Americanism has become
something more than specuIa-
tion.-San Jose Mercury.

The Enterprise takes pleasure in
noting the favor with which our
ruralists express themselves in the
matter of having the enactments
Of the legislature published in the
newspapers. They realize the
necessity of something of this
kind in order that they may be en-
abled to tamiliarize themselves
with the common laws without 60
ing to the unnecessary expense of
paying eXorbitant prices for the
same published in book form. If
published in the newspapers the
laws will be in the hands of every
one and an act from the legisla-
ture authorizing such will meet
with the general approval Of the
public-Enterprise.

SENATOR MITCHELL says he thinks
more liberal appropriations can be
secured for the improvement of

ture. The Oregon's delegation to
this end should be supplemented
by the united efforts of every
city and town and village on the
upper river. Let us lombard CON

needs in the matter. Let's see
that there is an open river the year
through, and plenty Of boats to

The editor of this paper has
been sued for damages. $4,000 is
the extent of the inroad alleged to
have been made on reputation
by the pruning knife of the GA
zETTE. We are surprised to learn
that che value Of an advertisement
in the GAZETTE is so large. The
alleged influence Of an ADVERTISE
ment of the plaintiffs character, in
this paper, is worthy the attention
of the advertising community. II
one local advertisement Of a repu-
tation is worth 5000, what should
be the value OF a whole column Of
business advertisements?
