THE AMERICAN TOMBOY.

She Often Becomes Woman That Men
Admire and Worship.
The tomboy has never been regarded as
peculiarly the representative Of fashion.
Her ways are not the languid ways that we
have been taught are essential to obtain
recognition for her as a social swell, " but
there Ia no doubt in healthy minds that one
day OF tomboydom is worth years of fash
ionable languor. Without outlines of man
nish vanity a man may sat down the world
known truth that the dearest object In
woman's life is mans approval and adj
miration. Perhaps men endure men in a
more tolerant and catholic spirit than that
which animates woman in her relations to
women. But having agreed that the APP
proval and admiration Of man as an institu-
ton are the chief felicity of women, it be-
comes important for women to know how to
inspire those sentiments in man.
They may practice all the clever articles
Of coquetry, employ ali the appliances ever
devised for adjoining" their persons, and

The fairy region of Trempealeau is one OF

nomenclature, scattered all over our north

musical and suggestive name because it is a

Tiger and Lion.

The Bengal tiger has more courage than
the lion, according to a Snowman, who
states to the Boston Courier that the mat
ter las tested in this manner: "We placed
a shooting cracker in the respective cages
and fired the fuses. As soon as the fuses
began to burn they attracted the attention
of both animals. but In widely different
manner. The lion drew into corner, and
watched the proceeding, with a distrustful
and uneasy eye. The tiger. on the contrary,
advanced to the burning fuse with firm
step and unfiinchDg gaze. On reaching the
cracker he took his paw and began to rol
it'over tho floor, and when it exploded be-
meath his very nose he did not finch, but
continued his examination until perfectly
satisfied. The lion betrayed great fear
when he heard the report OF the explosion,
and for quite time could not be coaxed
out of his corner"

this meeting held June 26th aud 9th.

by their lectures and methods that they
were well up with the times on teaching
and will accomplish n great good for the
students thrown under their instruction.
Prof. Isaac Orme, our worthy president,
opened the work by a nice lecture and
made all teachers feel at home. He is
an experienced teacher and managed the
Institute in a way that made it interest,"
ing to all. The attendance was the lar
gest that we have ever seen at any teach
ers' meeting held in Hardeman. We are
glad to see a people so stirred up and
willing to encourage the cause OF edHca-

Sandy Springs and surrounding country

Honest Efforts Always Succeed.

Whenever a man,, or firm, makes an
honest effort to please the public, and
gives the value of money spent, that man
or firm makes a success. In this connec-
ton, it is a pleasure for the BULLETIN to
state that Messrs. w. II. Reynolds & Co.,
the popular Hardware merchants OF Boil
ivar, have made for themselves a lasting
reputation. They are always anxious
and willing to please those who deal with
them, and spare no pains or trouble in
seeing that the wants of their customers
are properly met. The management of
the firms business is in the hands of Mr..
C. 4. Reynolds, who is thoroughly posted
and who strives to give satisfaction.
They keep everything i'll the hardware
line the public has use for, but should
you happen to need anything not i'll
stock, it will be ordered with promptness
and pleasure. Another important fea-
ture of their business is Furniture. They
keep on hand a full assortment, and as
far az quality and price is concerned, no
country establishment a surpass them
They also keep collins, Baskets and burial
robes. w. III. Reynolds & Co., are re-
ceiving orders daily from different parts
of Hardeman and adjoining counties.
Their business is growing and it Is the
result of general satisfaction and fair
dealing. No firm in the county is more
responsible and we commend them to the
nubIic. Wv

which is of course the ~favorite of the fair
sex. No. 6 is black sulphur. Besides
these springs, there are several others
not curbed in.
There has lately been erected On the
grounds a bowling alley and an ice cream
and lemonade parlor. AS additional at
fractions to the park, there are three deer
running at large. They are beautiful
creatures and the pets of everyone.
This r erty has recently been pur-
chased by Mr.. J. III. Watson, of this
place, who in course of time will, no
doubt, add new improvements and at
fractions for the pleasure of the summer
visitors. He has also bought the hotel
property, and has added to and improved
it quite extensively. / am told that he
has been out $4,000.
Iuka, as a business point, il, I presume
on q par with Bolivar. There is a bank,
two ice cream p~arlors, two barber shops,
two livery stables, besides the other bus
mess houses. The Methodist, Presbyte-
rian, Episcopal, Baptist and Campbeliite
churches are represented.
The Normal seems to be in a flourish
ing condition. 128 students are enrolled
for the summer term. They all seem in
teYested and in earnest as regards the
work. We are early risers here. The
first recitation begins at z am, and the
last ends at 6 pm. "The song of the
sluggard" is unknown in Iuka you see.
Some one has said that Tishomingo
County sis the smallest and poorest, the
hardest and tackiest" County in the state;
yet as a corn producing County it exceeds
any in the state.
There are nice rains falling this week,
which were very much needed. / hope
that our farmers are enjoying the same
blessing. Corn seems to be the staple
production in this County, though cotton
is raised in the lowlands.
If these dots from Iuka will interest
any of my friends, l will feel very much
gratified. Very respectfully,
A SEMI-NoRMALITE.

EDITORS BULLETIN-Occasionally we
see letters in your paper from those who
visit neighboring states or towns, and
thinking that you might be glad TO hear
from Iuka, I take the liberty of writing
this letter.
Iuka is only e~ighty-odd miles from
Bolivar, but owing 10 our fine railroad
system the journey cannot be made under
seven hours, and that in passenger coach
es too.
This is quite a pretty little place,
though the buildings are old and more
or less dilapid ated, still the situation
is a lovely one for a town. 1t being
much more hilly in and around town than
in Bolivar, the surrounding views are
quite picturesque. Gov Stone has his
residence here, a very modest one, how
ever. The yard is one mass OF shrub
berry and flowers, much better kept than
many of the yards | have seen.

Ferry bridge, while descending the
hill, part of the harness broke and
one of the mules became frighten-
ed and dashed down the bull. Mr..
Roberts remained in the wagon,
attempting t. stop the team until
he saw that the traces had become
unhltched, and turning the reins
loose he let the mules go. The
tongue of the wagon ploughed up
the ground for a considerable dis
lance, and striking some obstruction
threw Mr.. Roberts out, bruising
his head and side and spraining his
ankle. One of the mules was badly
hurt, the wagon broken, chickens
! killed and eggs mashed. Mr.. Rob
