All is now Harmony.

Birmingham, Ala, July l3.-The
trouble between the Rev. Dixon Will
liams, the evangelist, and the Cum
berland Presbyterterian Church of
Birmingham has been happily adj
jusled. The pastor and church con-
cede that they misunderstood Mr..
Williams, in believing he was
threatening to sue thSm, and Mr..
Williams says the first intimation he
had that suit was intended on his
part was letter from one of the offi~
ers of the church not to sue. The
claim of the evangelist for additional
pay was promptly withdrawn by
him when he found that its justice
was questioned. All parties are per-
fectly agreed now that no wrong was
intended by either.

A CObtUeb PdrtU.

A merrier party of young people
is rarely ever seen than was gathered
beneath the roof of Mr.. j. p. Gartner,
Thursday night, from s until l2. The
tastefully decorated parlors of this
hospitable home echoed and re-
echoed to lightsome laughter and
merry conversation. The room was
a perfect network of cords to repre-
sent cobwebs, and the young ladies,
with the assistance of their attendant
cavaliers, were to put their nimble
fingers to the test of winding up the
then seemingly ineXtricably tangled
threads. Like the tabled story of the
rainbow, a prize waited the one first
to reach the end of her thread. Miss
Edna Barbee secured the coveted
prize, a most beautiful basket of flow
ers. Refreshments were served and
enjoyed by all alike, and the fail
hostesses,l Misses HIKE and Aliene
Gartner, made it an evening unusual
ly pleasant. There were present
Misses Hattie Lester, Kittie Davis
and Claudia Martin, Nashville; Mis-
Wonnie Hooper, Chattanooga; Mis-
Mamie Smallwood, Paris; Miss Edna
Barbee, Kentucky; Misses Fisher

Infancy to Old Age.

Nothing is more remarkable than
the fact that a medicine which is
powerful enough to cure the most
horrible form of blood poisoning can
be given with impunity to a little
child that is ailing; and yet this is
the record of Swift's Specific Is. S. S.
1t is a germ destroyer, a purifier, a
great remedial agent; 1t is powerful,
and yet harmless; it is a medicine
that contains no mineral poisons, all
its results are benefcent; it is COM
pounded from natures own labora-
tory, and works on natures lines to
cure disease; it restores, and reinvigO-
rates the system, ii may be used as
tonic by the most delicate woman;
it may be given to build up the con-
stitutiOn of a little child, or it may
be employed to restore to health the
unhappy victim of blood poisoning
In each case it will work wonderful
results.

The teachers and directors will
please take notice that this scheme Of
grading obtains only until June 1892,
but there will be comparatively few
notifications thereafter. Every
teacher should procure copy of the
State Superintendent's instructions
and familiarize himself with the
scheme of grades therein proposed;
from the instructions there to be
found it is obvious that a system Of
grading must be employed very SIM
liar to that here give. l offer the
suggestion that the pupils of the Sec
ondary schools be divided into two
classes-the one to sing (or recite) al
opening of mornings-the other al
closing of school. If the school is
only primary, there need be only one
class.
In grading the schools many diff
culties will necessarily arise. Let the
people be patient, let the teachers bC
faithful, let the directors staunchly
support the teachers, let us all do oul
