EDITOR HERALD:-Our items having
failed to reach you last week, you may
expect something very interesting this
time, but we are about has blank as
usual. However, we hope to be able to
send in more news in the near future
than VIC have been doing for tVianIe
Yeal' made the nHYe 'ithat the Beuple
report the new g: -. - - hspOHdent of
their nG. ,.In..Ti4n...i Lhat they might
write III JIC Interesting letters and our
Editor seconded the motion; so we feel
quite sure all the correspondents are IN
favor of it and ready to say, "aye," and
our friends will doubtless help us all
ont.
The greatest exciUement prevails here,
because of a rabid dog which made
quite circuitOus tour, through our
community last week. Many dogs re-
ceived a call and a bite, after which
Mr.. George Nichol succeeded in killing
him and Knox Polk has amused him
self a little by knocking with a ball
that had just passed through gun,
several others that had been bitten by
the rsbid one. We must say THAT this
is the worst dog infected region of orr
knowledge, and unless many others are
killed we apprehend much serious
damage will yet be done by some of
them.
Early corn is up nicely, tho some of
the farmers complain they have not a
good stand. There are still some farm
ers who are not through planting corn.
Mr.. Geo. Nichol was 50 unfortunate
as to have young colt to die last week
and Mr.. Joe Terrill had one to die from
having been kicked by an older mule.
Mr., Il. j. Davis came near losing a
nice young horse Il few days ago, with
thumps, caused from having been
plowed in the heat of the day. 1t is
early for such but it IS a noticeable fact
that we have had some exceedingly
warm weather recently for April.
Messrs. Foster and Dortch have rent
ed an interest in Hunters mill for
short time. With the trio of such live
ly business men as they are this mill
will furnish enough flour for hundreds
of "MOdel Wives To make good bis

Miss Verta Jones has returned from
a visit to her sister, Mrs. Hughes, of
Williamson.
to her home near Andrews. She came
down to visit her brother IA. Nichol-
son and to attend the JOnes-NichOl
nnptiAls.
Little Mona Terrill has about recov-
cred from light attack of fever.
Esq. Richard Mckay WAS called to
Thompson Station Saturday to see his
daughter, Mrs. Dave Kinnard, who was
seriously paralyzed Friday. Little
hope was entertained for her recovery.
Rev. Il. j. Dixon of Spring Hill
preached here last Lords Day, the pas
tor being OFT at Presbytery and on his
bridal tour too.
This may seem out of my line of bust
ness, but wish to tell others what /

Fittings and adjustment. The hogs are
then redeemed and the tails taken up
and cancelled by means of a bell-punch,
the punching is to be done with care
and in the presence of the passenger.
The tails are then taken to the Bureau
of Leaf Lard and Soap Grease, where
they undergo the proper process Of
manufacture, and from this iH created a
fund to be called the Tail Grease Fund,
for the payment of salaries.
Incidentally, 1t may be remarked
that there will be some important Off
eos created for members of our noble
order under this law, with suitable
salaries attached; and thought it is a
little premature to fill them at this time,
there is hardly a doubt that Brother
Mcdowell will have the place of Tail
Trimmer and Abbreviator and Brother
Rice Pierce that of Tail Filter and Ad-
ulster. The peculiar intellectual gifts
of these brethren admirably fit them for
the character of mental work required
for such employment.

way to set forth the plans OF our worthy

Coke Region Riais.

There were several riots and
breaches OF the peace throughout the
Pennsylvania coke regions this week,
growing out of attempts to evict
miners from the company houses.
In nearly every case the trouble was
started by the women, who resisted
t. officers with anything they could
put their hands on. TweDty-six
rioters were al rested, and were taker

Amazons made a detour, and by s

MAKING SERMONS.


Industries Thst Have f1ourisIlcd E1-
tcnaively in England.
Sermon making once uron iimo was
a profession. 1c-lay il is dyins art.
The second hand book shops were tu- iu-
poriuins. Twenty years ago a dealer of
any position retained staff of sermon
manufacturers. A subject was given OF
a text selected and in from II to "a hours
the manuscript was ready FOR tha preach
era. If lac was in want Of an up to date
discourse, half a guinea to guinea was
the charge. Or il a manuscript in stock
suited the purpose the price was from
half a crown to five shillings.
II was the practice in the fortes to
Keep supply on hand. These were
pgeonholed in alp .abetical order, accord
ing to theme or according to subject.
The pigeonhole supply was common
property. Duplicates were more fire.
quent than now; many were well
thambad, and invariably were dead mems
leavings, most often obtained for cash
down from executors or other representa-
tiyes Of deceased cIersymtn.
Even to-G0y the trade is siill carried on
either by advertisement in the church
organs or in the booksellers catalogues.
Here are two offers from recent book
lists
Manuscript sermons - 200 original
mapuscr;pt tscruons, written and preached
between 1870 and 1886 by tho late Rev.
Martin lwiss ID. D., rector of Mawdes-
ley, Lancashire, price 81 is. per hundred,
or e6 Gs. the lot.
Manuscript rnons-fifty original
manuscript expository sermons ON the
Pentateuch, preached at Ossett, York
shire, price 81 Is.
But the latest phase in the science is to
build up sermons by mental absorption.
1t is no rare occurrence, we are assured,
| for preacher to make it his daily task
to peruse a printed sermon by suggest
i've preacher, and in his own way from
the pulpit to rub through the sieve
another thinkers bon mots. Sometimes
it is only the skeleton that is taken. At
others it is body and soul that is at
tackled.
Another sermon monger is the elegant
| extract man. A late well known and
| appreciated London preacher of this order
was a vandalin such matters. He would
not take the trouble to write out his ex-
tracts. He would cut whole pages OF
snippets out Of his book and paste them
on his manuscript, When the other day
his books came under the hammer there
werc great searchings of heart about their
imperfections.
From inquiries it would appear that
the Americans are now the largest con.
snmers in the sermon trade. They are
buying up all the fine old divines and
shipping them largely to the most out Of
the way United States villages. The
dealers quite expect rise before long in
the best brands of the older theologians.

The cause of persons whose nerves are
excited by prohacted and excessive use
o. stimulants seeing the shapes of ami.
mails passing before them is not due
wholly to the imagination, says a writer
in the New York Times. In fact the
fancy only operates to induce belief
that what is seen is alive and hideous.
The eyeball is covered by a network Of
veins, ordinarily so small that they do
not intrude themselves visibly in the
path of the light that enters the sight,
but in the course of some diseases these
veins are frequently congested and
swollen TO such size as to become visible,
and when this happens the effect gener-
ally is to appear as if there were an ob.
ject Of considerable size at distance
from the eye.
OF course this vein is generally long,
thin, and sinuous like serpent, and the
figure seen is frequently startlingly like
snake. That they seem to live is due
to the factthat tn are often not in per.
feet line with the direct front of sight.
They are either to the side, up or down
from the focus; therefore, when dis
covered the victim naturally turns his
eyes toward the effect and the effect Of
course, moves away. The eye follows,
and thus a continuous and realistic mo-
ton is got. Now, if the eye be returned
to The front again quickly it will see
another snake, which if watched will
glide away in the same manner. The
writer Of this is afflicted by malarial dis
ease, and after his eyes are thus congested
many strange shapes and clouds pass
w..hin his vision, which, if he were in a
state ut nervous collapse, might easily be
all thot are seen by those suffering from
delirium tremens.
