SERVICEABLE DRESS.
1T is NEAT AND TRIM, PRETTY AND
WOMANLY.

1t Can Be Worn Outdoors In Sunshine
and In storm-with Easy Adjustment II
Becomes a Pleasing House Dress.
A dress made after the accompanying
description from the New York Herald
of a prize business dress for women
will be practical and feminine and never
decidedly out of fashion. For the street
the costume consists of close fitting,
round waist, comfortably snug, to which
is hooked or buttoned a coat skirt. A
belt with bag to match conceals the
joining
The skirt is round and short enough
for ease in walking and is slightly draped.
The skirt should be carefully shrunk be-
fore making and firmly stitched and
lined at the bottom. The sleeves should
be neither full nor tight, but loose
enough for comfort in moving and close
at the wrist. Under the bodice is worn
a pretty waist of silk or cambria, the
edges of the sleeves showing little as
cuffs under the bodice sleeves. This al
lows of great variety in costume, as
changes can be made, and women loye
individuality in their dressing and will
not wear q uniform.
For the house the coat skirt may be re-
moved, the revers turned back all the
way to the belt to give more ease and
the belt readjusted.
For warm weather and more complete
negigee the bodice may be entirely re-
moved and the silk waist neatly belted

whispered, hurriedly. THE governor has

In the grip of dozen armed fanatics it
would indeed have been folly to make op-

door I got q whisper from Said Achmet
that he would be at the castle by sunrise
on the morrow to testify in my favor. His
meaning was not clear, but it was solacing
to have even one friend at SO dubious a
juncture.
The winds seemed to bear intelligence of
my arrest. No sooner had we quilted the
garden than we were in a clamoring crowd,
bearing links that shed a grotesque and
lurid light on the strange scene. As l
knew that in Arab towns the inhabitants
are rarely abroad after sunset, the demon
stration was evidence of unusual, indeed
Of extraordinary, connection.
The people, pressing about us, speculated
aloud on the doom that was in store for me,
and their auguries were anything but
cheering. What was more disquieting, they
once or twice showed disposition to take
matters into their own hands. If they had
done that, / have a notion this history

How to Avoid Farm Work
in Summer.

1t never gets so hot in the
South as it does in the North.
There are never any sunstrokes
in the South. The hotter the
weather the harder the Northern
farmer has to work to save his
crops, while down South the farm
ers do the most of their farm
work during the Fall, Winter and
Spring, when the weather is cool,
and during the Summer they take
life easy. 1t is always cool in the
shade down South and the nights
are always cool. The thermom-
eter seldom gets above 80. The
hottest day during the past five
years was 81 degrees.
You can grow one crop during
the Winter, another during the
Spring, and another during the
Fall on the same land each year.
You will net more money from
each one of these crops than you
can make from a similar crop in
the North. You can get a home
cheaper. 1t will cost you less to
live. You can make more money,
You will have better health, live
longer, and enjoy life better in
the South than in the North. A

about it sent free to all applicants

Decoration Day.

Several years past the Com.
mander in Chief Of the Grand
Army of the Republic, designated
the 30tn day of May as Decora-
ton Day, and suggested that on
that day in each year, services
appropriate to the occasion should
be held at all National Cemeteries,
and the graves of the soldiers
decorated with flowers, and this
suggestion was subsequently ap.
proved by Congress and made a
legal holiday.
But for a number of years
past, how has the day been OBJ
served at Pittsburg Landing by
many of the rough characters who
make tia point to congregate there
on such occasions With revelry
drunkenness, gambling, fgting,
shooting, and conduct that would
disgrace a circus, and which is an
insult to the dead, and a burning
shame to the living who permit
or tolerate it. 1t is reported
on what seems to be good author
ity, that on last Decoration Day
at Pittsburg Landing, one mar
was killed in O drunken, gambling
fight, and the authorities should
at least, investigate the matter

good people of Hardin county

THE PRESS ASSOCIATION.
A Bout With the Quill
Drivers.

1t was our pleasure to meet
with the Tennessee Press Associ.
ton at Jackson on the 18th and
14th. The body was entertained
in such a pleasant manner by the
citizens of Jackson that express.
ions of praise were heard on ev-
cry hand. Complete freedom of
the city was given the "gang."
The Board of Trade banqueted
the members of the Association
the evening of the 10Th in the
Pythian Castle. Six courses were
served and the beauty of the
town, young ladies in decollete,
handed round the viands.
AT 8 a. m. the 10Th, the Asso-
citation, numbering one hundred,
was taken in charge by w. j.
Hills, Superintendent of the Pad.
ucah, Tennessee & Alabama and
the Tennessee Midland Railways,
and, on a special train, carried
over these roads to Paducah,
where the Board of Trade enter.
tanned the party with a delightful
ride over the city in carriages,
dinner and supper at the Palmer
House and a ball at the same
place in the evening. We were
met at Paris, Tenn, by a commit.
tee of ladies and gentlemen from
Paducah, who added very much
to the pleasure of the party fol-
the balance of the journey and
also at Paducah. Among the
names we pleasantly remember
we mention, Mr.. and Mrs. w. j
Hills, of the P. 7. A. and T. M
Railways, Frank Shut, of the
Paducah News and Mr.. j. G. Tully
and daughter.
From Paducah the Association
went to the Mammoth Cave. AS
we had already seen that great
wonder we left the party at Pad
ucah and came home on that ele
giant steamer, the City of Sa
vannah.

Being confined to the Court House all the
while is why write to you, and do not come
in person to see you, to announce | am a
candidate for reelection to the office of At
torney General.
1t has been the custom of the country to
give man a second term if he performed
his duty well the first term, and made good
officer; and besides, an officer who has had
the Office one term is better qualified to per-
form its duties than any new man-the best
service for the country is what the people de-
manipulating my claims on these and other
considerations, | earnestly request your valu-
able support, and will ever remember your
kindness in this respect.
Attention to my daily duties at the Court
must plead my fitness and faithfulness to the
Office more than leaving the office to cleo
tioneer for my reelection.
A convention or primary will be held to
send delegates TO judicial convention. My
claims are subject to the action of the Demo-
cratic party, and if elected will as heretofore,
perform my duties promptly, and with kind
ness to all.
