The Care of the Finger Nails.

Hangnails, which, when not owing 70
negligent habits, are usually due to dry
ness of the skin, will disappear by de-
grees under careful treatment. The
skin should not be allowed to intrude
on the nail When this occurs 1t must
be delicately loosed with the fine blade
of a penknife or dull needle point and
carefully trimmed, not cutting to the
quick, however. All the horny growth
about the corners must also be clipped
away; ointment must be rubbed on the
flesh around the base of the nail and
when needful should be left on over
night. This allays soreness, supplies
nourishment to the skin and promotes a
new and more healthy growth.
White spots occasionally make their
appearance on the nails. When these
occur in large numbers they may be due
to constitutional disturbances on which
local treatmet will have no effect. Lo-
cally they are usually due to a slight
blow or bruise, probably received I'm
consciously, the effect Of which will
pass away in a short time.-Chicago

Mr.. J. X. Farrell, President OF the

Mora b. Fariss, the assistant Secre-
tary Of the Association, read report
OF receipts and expenditures for the
paat year and a list Of the debts due
From this report it appears that
the floating debt demanding esrly
payment is about $500; the ques-
ton is how to meet it. There was a
proposition to levy an assessment OF
20 per cent on the stockholders for
that purpose. Before taking action
on this however, some of the stock
holders wanted a statement tabula-
led from the secretary's books, show
ing the condition of each branch oil

the Chair appointed MIR. 4. h. Erwin

such statement and report at .

No human institution or Organiza-
ton, either of church or state, is or
can be made perfect. But with the
Weaverites, Buchananites and Prohi-
bitionites impossible and side issues
as they are, and the Republican
party committed irrevOcably to the
Force bill, no sensible aud sane man
can doubt that the only safety and
hope of the South is through the
organization known as the Demo
cratic party. Men may talk differ
entIy and some may even go further
and vote differently, hut they are
doing wrong and they know it, and
when they stop to think or lie do" Il
to steep, their consciences smite
them. No true souSherner, who I'M
derstands the ruin and wretched-
ness negro rule would spread over
the south, can give even half vote
to the Republican party and still
enjoy an easy conscience. That is a
physical impOssibility.

Mcdowell has confessed it all,
His confession comes, however, after
his guilt had been proven. Iu pub
lie speech at Paris, Tenn, last Satur-
day, he said that the bird party and
Republicans had made a cOmbina-
ton. He said the III derstanding
was, that where the Republicans
thought they could win, the POPu-
Htes were to help them; where tie
Republicans could not win, they
were to help the POpulites. 1t was a
deal taking in the entire State. He
had made il, aud he was proud OF 1t,
and the combination would win.
John Houk and ALI Taylor, the
two Republican Congressman from
Tennessee, were not opposed, he said,
because they were in the deal and
according to the contract would be
supported by the Populites in their
districts.
Both these msn-Tayior ard Houk
are Force bill Republicans. They
are no better, no worse, than MIR.
Reed or Mr.. Lodge. who violated all
rules Of debate and all right of free
speech in Congress, in their wicked,
malicious, mad effort to pass Ii bill
that would effectually aid everlast-
iugly put ''biack heels on white
necks" and turn the entire South
over to negro rule.
We all remember how anxious
int
indignation at the time; there was
hardly white man in Maury County
who was not swearing eternal hate
and vengeance against the Republi-
can parry Tor this attempted diaboli-
cal outrage; aud yet there are men
who called themselves Democrats
and Southern sympathizers, who to-
day are being led by the nose by this
same John Mcdowell, and who are
giving their influence and intend
giving their votes to combination
with this same SOuth-hating Repub-
lican party.
For the men who are into the com
bination; who have accepted nomina-
tions for Governor, for Congress and
for the Leci5lalure on this combine
ton ticket, we have no word of ergu-
meut or eutreaty. We do not wan

now, and should be made to live un-
der the uo!iticaI anathems Of an out
ragged people. They should never be
given p second opportunity to hetray
the people who have trusted and
hon0red them in the past.
But there are some they are foo
ing. Tuere are some they have per
suaded not to read any Democratic
newspapers, not to listen to any Dem,
ocratic speaker. There are some
they have led astIay thus far, and
are keeping uninformed and in the
dark. These do not know the
treachery and rascaliy combinations
of their leaders. If they did, they
would turn upon and rend them.
tits the duty of every Democrat
and every lover of this Southland, to
90 to these misled uninformed few
and tell them the facts. They can
not be reached through the pres
