ions. Miss Horance Boyer, of Ken.
bricks Creek, is visiting her grand
mother, Mrs. Susan MUIR, this week.
Mrs. II. T. Duncan is on the sick list,
We understand that NJ. NJ. MUIR has a
new renter, Mr., Beaver, a tobacco man,
from Greene County. The other day
Isaac Howard was seen riding down
the road with a smile all over his face
its another boy. Mrs. Amos Jones is

mill running; it is Il complete success
A. j D%oughcrty is preparing to move

Mrs. Susan Murr's quilting the eth

CARRIERS MILL,

The Christmas HOLIDAYS passed off
here without anything unusual hap
pening. Considerable whisky was
drank; a few parties at which our dan
GERS tripped the light fantastic; quite II
number of social gatherings and good
dinners, and a tisticuff or two, caused
by parties drinking the wrong kind of
liquor, is about all we have TO report.
We hear that w. A. Brown has sold
his store to Wallace Boring. John
Blair, Jr., spent Christmas with rela-
tives in Wytheville, Va. j. G. CARRIER,
after spending a few days with friends
and relatives here, returned to Lenoir
City last Friday. Miss Mollie Slower,
after a residence of fifteen years in
Dallas, Texas, is visiting the home of
her early childhood, and her many rel
atives and friends. An infant of w. A.
Brown was buried one day last week.
Little Ray Simpson, son Of w. +. Simp-
son, who recently left this place, was
up from Lenoir CITY to spend q few
days with his cousins here. The Christ
mas tree at Bacon's School House was
Il success. Quite a neat sum was made
up in the Sunday School to purchase
presents for the little ones, and VIM.
Barron, teacher at the place, also put
Oh a present for each of his pupils, and
in addition the parents and Others help

trict was much pleased with the colored
doll presented him by some kind friend
on the Christmas tree. Mrs. Williams
mother of Mrs. d. A. hardwood, &C
c%ompanied by her little daughter, is up
from Lenoir City on a visit. We had
the pleasure of meeting with jolly
good friend, Alfred Estep, our district
orator, a few days ago, and he desires
us to tell your readers that he is still i'll
the ring and w%hooping up the boys for
Brownlow. Capt. Berry's barber shop
is about to go to the wall. One of his
right hand men imbibed a little too
freely during Christmas times, which
rendered him unfit to wait upon GUS
toners, and was discharged. L.. G.
CARRIER has withdrawn from the firm
for the reason, he says, that he will not
belong to any enterprise there all the
brains and cash of the concern are put
on the tail end; it is thought, however,
that the business will be revived. We
enjoyed several good dinner during the
holiday season, and felt like embracing
the cook, regardless of age or color.
James Berry, Of May Day, made us u
pleasant call Sunday; come again,

thanking God for the E%leciropoise.
NJ. j. Dalton, Nashville: ~ consid-
er the Electropoise invaluable"
T. j. Atkins, Memphis: ''The Elec-

house"
Prof. A. NJ. Burney, Gallatin: Speak
ing from experience, | have no hesitan-
cy in saying that the Electropoise pos
sesses great curative powers.u
j. Jack Wilson, Memphis: 'Unless
| could replace it nc amount of money
would tempt me to sell my Electropoise,
A. B. Robertson, Beech Grove; IT
have used the E%lectropoise for over
two years, and would not take $500 for
it if could not get another"
Travis Winham, Nashville: II con-
slider it the greatest medical discovery
of the age"
Hon. T. H. Baker, Huntington: For
paralysis and that class of diseases |
car say from experience without hest.
tation that the effects of the Electro
poise border on the miraculous"
Mrs. Ed II. Smith, Somerville: 81
believe that the time will soon come
when the Electropoise will be consider
ed an indispensable article in the fam
ily."
w, +. Burton, Henrietta: "It is an
unpleasant duty to parade ones COM

Tennessee would not buy mine,
Prof. r. w, Jennings, Nashville: ST

Rev. G. A. Lotion, D. D., Nashville:

zing the circulation and restoring the
v equilibrium, and l found the
same effect under like circumstances"

Sunday School Festival.

The annu | Sunday School festival
come off at the NJ. Z. Church at Lime
stone on last Thursday afternoon, and
was highly enjoyed by the school and
quite a number of Spectators. In the
first place all the young people were
treated to an ample supply of the good
things of life, consisting of apples,
cakes, candies, raisons, etc., supplied
by the good ladies and gentlemen of
this community. After this came dis
tribution of presents, and each and
everyone received a handsome gift
from the Superintendent and teaceers.
The following constitutes the roll of
honor for this year: Miss Mamie
Strain, our organist, first prize, for
having attended every Sunday in the
year, (53 in all. Misses Minnie Re.
mine, Irene Archer, Birdie Remine,
BERTHE Swaney, Kate Remine, Ida
Green and Messrs. Jack Ye1ger, Guy
Yeager, John Swaney, Miller Green
and Fred Remine. For having attended
between fourty five and fifty Sundays
in the yeear. Last of all the Superin-
tendant received some valuable pres
ents which were gruefully and CRATE
fully accepted. This school has been
in successful operation for twenty one
years, fifty two Sundays in the year,
not having missed a single Sunday in
all these years, und,r the same Super
intendant and has gone through the
Bible three times and are ready to start
though the fourth time on the first
Sunday in 1894. If there is a Sunday
School in the county that can beat this
record we would be glad to hear from
it but there are very few persons that
started with US twenty one years ago
who are with us now. Now a few
words about Sunday Schoolsi in general:
We are afraid that numbers of our
poor children are driven away or kept
away from our Sunday Schools on ac-
count of the gaudy apparel of those
more highly favored with the good
things of this world. We are not opposed
to people dressing neetly and nicely,
rather favor it; but think a little leve-
ling up or down ON this line would be
in order, especially during these hard
times on the poor. Friends, can't we
make this little sacrifice for the glory
of God and the salvation of man?
Yours Truely, SOLITUDE.
