What PrOstrates Women.

1t is almost impossible to name an
age at which every woman is at her
best, writes Rebecca Harding Davis in
reply to the question, "At what age is
woman at her bestp" in the Novem-
ber Ladies' Home Journal.
II you examine, indeed, into the ef-
feet OF forced mental growth upon
her body, you may write some.
A witty French woman, who was
here last winter, saw one side of that
subject. "Ah, no :" she sighed. 1--WE
women in Paris do not grapple with
such grave studies as you in America.
We do not cooperate; we have no pub
Tic virtues. But, =" with shrug,
neither have we nerve prostration."
The only general assertion which
one can safely make is that every wo-
man is at her best in body and mind
at the age when she is most fully occu-
pied with her true work in the world,
whether that be art, cookery, lecturing
or child bearing, provided that she
goes to it simply and humbly. 1t is
not their work that prostrates the
nerves of women or vulgari yes their
natures. tits the incessant squabbling
and posing and boasting about their
work.

Thankful for His Country.

1t seems to me that one of the main
things for which Americans ought to
be thankful is "our country" with its
glorious heritage of liberty and wealth.
I recall how proud we were of it in
the days of my boyhood. The most
precious of all the treasures of the
world, liberty, was ours, and we exulted
in the possession of it. The richest re-
sources of the earth were ours, and we
boasted of the ownership of them. We
chanted the praises of our beautiful
land, and our emotions were stirred as
we beheld the flag of its majesty flut-
tering in the sunshine.
We boasted of our fertile soil, our
mines of all the useful minerals and
metals, our natural wealth of every
kind, our forests, our prairies, our
water courses, and our vast sweep OF
territory between the Atlantic and Pa.
cific. We were proud beyond words
of our resplendent country.
We boastei of our Constitution, OF
our republican government, and of the
franchises which belonged by tight to
every citizen. We boasted of our poll
tics, and proudly proclaimed that every
American was a sovereign.
Where, in all the world, was there

ever match for our country, great,
prosperous, brave and free, ay. freep
Its name, America. We gazed along
the lines of the ages and saw our coun-
try growing ever freer and richer and
stronger and happier, ever yet more
and more the wonder of the world.
How enchanting vista. That coun-
try is yet here and bears it old name.
We had reason, and still have reason
to be thankful for it. If the people Of
today are less exultant over it than we
were in the old times, if terrible evils
have taken root in it, if the spirit Of
the masses is uneasy, If political decay
has set in, if hordes of working people
have been reduced to poverty and live
in misery, if capitalists and laborers
are at enmity, there can be no better
day than Thanksgiving to think of the
cause of these things.
We are yet thankful for "our coun- :
try. From "What Have We to Give
Thanks Forp" From Demorest's Maga-
zine for November.

A Wonderful COnQuerOr.

No disease is more common among
the people than scrofula. Handed
down from generation to generation, it
is found in nearly every family, in
some form. 1t may make its appear
ance in dreadful running sores, in
swelling in the neck, or goitre, or in
eruptions of varied forms. Attacking
the mucous membrane it may be known
as catarrh, or developing in the lungs
it may be, and often is, the prime
cause of consumption. In whatever
form scrofula may manifest itself,
Hoods Sarsaparila is its inveterate
foe and conqueror. This medicine has
such powerful Alternative and vitalizing
effects upon the blood that every trace
of impurity is expelled, and the blood
is made rich, pure and healthy.

81 A YEAR In ADVANCE
Criticising Our Millionaires.

Its high time that we in th is country
should cease pointing the finger of
criticism at those whose worldly means
are greater than ours, and heap upon
them the spirit of malicious envy.
writes Edward w. Box in "At Home
with the Editor" in November Ladies',
Home Journal. We have reached that
point where we even seek to criticise
our millionaires when they buy yachts
or give large social functions. During
these depressing times have constant.
ly heard people complaining because
MIR. Gould paid $25,OOO for yacht;
because Mr.. Vanderbilt built two pal
aces costing him over five millions of
dollars, or that Mrs. Astor gave ball
at cost of $4,000. Pray, why should
they not? What helps the country
at large more than these very expendi-
lures? 1fthese people boarded up their
money we should be far more justified
In criticising them. The more money
that is out in circulation in this coun-
try the better it is for us all. Indi.
rectly some of it comes to each of us.

WOman's Most Attractive Age.

The most attractive age of woman's
life is the period when she is still young
enough to be pretty and old enough to
be sympathetic, writes Octave Thanet
in the November Ladies Home Journal.
For as grace is a woman's greatest
beauty so sympathy is her greatest
charm. A graceful and sympathetic
woman is bound to be attractive to the
end of her days. If she adds taste in
dress and some sense to her equipment
for pleasing, and does not grow deaf, 1
see no reason why she should not bs
fascinating in her old age. Since the
question, however, concerns itself only
with the most attractive age of woman
| must give the answer in my first SEN
tence. What that age as measured by
years may be, ought to vary with the
individual.

OHUCRY VALLEY.

AS l do not see any news from this
place in the columns of the Herald and
Tribune will give a few items. The
farmers are sowing wheat as fast as
they can while the weather is 20 nice
and dry; some of them are gathering
corn, sowing oats, etc. Mrs. N. V.
Cannon has been visiting relatives
and friends in Jonesboro for a week,
returned Saturday. Miss Mabel Gam
mon is somewhat indisposed at this
writing. We hope she will be out in a
very short time. The Sunday School
at Chucky Valley is flourishing; we
have not such large number of
scholars, but all seem to be taking a
great deal of interest in the work, con-
sequently we have a very nice school.
Several of the good citizens went up to
johnson City last Thursday to hear the
Hon. Isham G. Harris speak; all seemed
pleased with the speech. We need
more such men to speak as they can
tell the good farmers how he is being
mashed" by all the monopolies and
trusts. Candidates are as thick as flies
on warm day in June, and all seem
to think they will get there the sixth of
November. We ought to throw off
the old party yokes and vote for the
man that will represent us and work
the most to our interests. The wedding
bells have been ringing in our valley
this week. Jas. Taylor was married
Thursday last to Miss Shoealter, of
johnson City, and came down to see
the groom's brother, Hon. A. A. Taylor,
and spent a few days, then returned to
johnson City where they will make
their future home. Last Monday Capt.
Robert Brown was united in the holy
bonds of matrimony to Miss Amanda
I. Bayless, one of our most highly re.
spected ladies in the valley; the cere-
mony was performed by Rev. W. NJ.
Vines, of johnson City At 12 O'Clock
all were assembled in front of the
house to see it we'll done, and at 1880
the contracting parties walked out so
all could see, and by very nice little
ceremony were made husband and
wife. The bride wore cream colored
dress trimmed in crimson velvet with
white flowers on her breast and hair,
while the groom wore black suit and
button hole boquet of the choicest
variety. We regret very much to lose
Miss Amanda from our midst, but hope
our loss will be his gain. After the
ceremony all went out to most elab.
crate and artistically arranged dinner;
no one knew it was going to be we'd
ding until the day before, all thought
it would be birth day dinner of B. D.
Bayless, and it was; he was seventy
five years old on the day they were
married. Mrs. w. L. Martin, who has
been visiting her relatives and parents
for some weeks, left for Bessemer, Ala
bama, last Saturday, accompanied by
her brother, Chas. Deaderick; he will
be gone until about the first of June,
1895, The young people of the vicinity
are enjoying themselves now in having
chestnut huntings and wind up with
