CHERRY GROVE.

The time is drawing neal when it will
be the duty of our County Court to
elect a Superintendent of Public In.
struction for our county, and we know
of no one more worthy the honors than
the present incumbent, Prof. Watts,
who has made us an excellent superin-
tendent; the teachers and people on
this side of the county are, without o
dissenting voice, for Mr.. Watts, and we
trust the County Court at the January
term will elect him county superinten-
dent. Your scribe went to johnson
City the 9th to visit j. M. Tucker, who
was recently paralyzed from his waist
down; we found him in right bad shape,
though we hope to see him on foot soon
again. The recent rains have flushed
the waters a little and our millers are
merry for the time being. We notice
that Joseph White is making nice i'm.
provements on his farm recently pur-
chased near Christie. Ell Dunn has the
the lumber on the yard for a new
dwelling house. John Moore is prepar-
ing to build a residence. r. A. Fergu-
son made a flying business trip to
Greene County the past week. Mrs. R.
A.. Ferguson, Mrs. j. G. Hartman, of
this place, Mrs. W. A., Keys, of Bow
mantown, and Miss Nancy Hulse, of
Butchertown, were the guests of your
scribe the 18th. The revival meeting
at the Limestone Baptist Church closed
last Tuesday night, and we learn that
there were seventy four in all professed
faith in Christ. T. E. Gibson, of Locust
Mount, was visiting Prof. Shipley's
recently; he called on the scribe, but
we were not at home, come again, old
frien1. The meeting at Hale's Springs
is still in progress and much good is be.
ing done. Miss Kate Dunn has return
ed from her visit to Sullivan County,
accompanied by her brother and also
Sam Smith, of near Bluff City. We
notice that Ell Chase has recently made
some improvements in the way of en-
closing his residence with a plank fence
and also treated his folks to a ~cistern.

we sincerely hope that those of our sub
scribers who are in arrears will make
it convenient to pay up, and SO assist
us in carrying on u business. We do
not like to dun any one, but if those
who W us will not come to the Office
and pay up, we are compelled tcshunt

u bills for paper. ink, labor, etc.,

Methodist Orphanage.

The question as to the Orphans
Home for IIolston Conference has at
last been settled, and G~reeneville gets
it. This is, in our opinion, a grave
mistake The home should have been
located as far away from any town as
possible-in the country, and thus kept
free from the many undesirable influ-
ences that are to be found in and about
too many of our towns. This thing of
leaving the selection of sites for char
liable institutions to the highest bidder
is all wrong; it does not mean that the
best place is desired. but the one that
will make the largest offer in money.
The mistake has been made, and will,
we think, be regretted deeply by those
who really have the welfare of the
orphans at heart.

Constipation is one of the most danger

fold to the good you derivefrom them.

Amid the mountains of North Caro-
lima there flows forth from among the
rocks and bushes. q spring of wondrous
water, for the health and Joy Of all the
unfortunate oneso of this disease stricken
world. Bubbling up from the labora-
tory of earth, pure and fresh as the
crystal of the snow flake, it contains
within its limpid depths mighty healing
powers implanted by other Than mortal
hands. Not the product of drug shops,
compounded by frail man, but a mystic
and mighty preparation of natural
medicine by the Great Physician for
the ills of his own children, which he
knows so we'll. 1t is the fountain of
health. Juan Ponce de Leon, in early
American times, failed to find the foun.
tain Of youth, but had he pushed his
explorations to the hills and mountains
of North Carolina, into what is now
known as Ashe County, he would have
found thisfountain of health-Ash ley's
Bromine and Arsenic Water. Not the
less potent because so long u%ndiscover-
ed, it is natures remedy for the "heal
ing of the nation, "and, although it has
not been been long before the people,
the fame of its curative powers has
spread throughout the land. What 1t
will yet accomplish in alternating the
sufferings OF mankind is beyond the
ken of prophecy. This remarkable
spring, which'is a messenger of Joy to
the sick, and a carrier of glad tidings
to the afflicted, was found in'a queer
wav, and in a manner too that ought
TO remove the doubts of the most skep-
tical as to the healing powers of its
waters. For sale by F. E. Britton.
