The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the
only positive cure known to the medi-
cal fraternity. Catarrh being a consti-
itutional disease needs a constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys.
tenn, thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitu-
ton and assisting nature in doing its
work. Tge p%roprietors have SO much
faith in its curative powers that they
offer one hundred dollars for any case
that it fails to cure. Send for list of

Fully three fourths of the wheat
crop of this section was put in shock
the past week, and this week will finish
the wheat and put up the winter oats.
The winter oat crop is better than it
has been for years, and the past low
prices of wheat induced our farmers to
SOW a larger acreage in winter oats
last fall than they usually do; besides
the fine crop Of winter oats there is a
very fiattering prospect for spring oats,
and a good acreage sown. Corn is
small, but it has a good color and is
stalking all right, the hot weather and
local showers are starting it off to
growing nicely. Our farmers are up
with their work and have their corn
all worked out nicely and the land in
good shape. Rev. VIM. Brown, Of
Brown & Mussulman's mill, who is
becoming noted for tying nuptial knots,
though not without some embarrass-
ment, informed the scribe that one day
last week he was standing on the plat
form of his mill, when a gentleman
and lady came dashing up in a buggy,
the lady holding in her hands a bunch
of papers-as he thought-the official
documents, he became so excited that
his knees knocked together at such a
rate as to alarm the natives, but the
couple only checked up long enough
to take on a sack Of -four and drove on
leaving him to mediate upon what
might have been. Cherry Grove has
taken a step out into the progressive
world; she will in a very few days be
connected with Jonesboro, johnson
City and Embreville by telephone, the
office being established at S. T. Mar
tins; the world a no longer consider
us a set of backwoods fellows. Mr..
Sans, who is erecting the line is pro-
crossing nicely, he has the posts set
almost to Cherry Grove. The health
of our section is to the physician dis.
tressingly good at this time. The APP
pie crop of this section is not more
than N fourth crop. Mrs. Samuel
Slaughter, of Limestone, was visiting
her brother, S. T. Martin, Saturday.
Mr.. and Mrs, John Bolin, of this place,
was visiting her parents at Haws' X
Roads Saturday and Sunday. The
scribe visited Jacob Good one day the
past week and found him somewhat
improved in health. w. c. Dunn, of
Bluff City, Sullivan county, is visiting
his father and other relatives at Chris
tie. Charles Rhea, hailing from Sweet.
water Valley, Tennessee, is stopping
with his relative, W. s. Cole, of this
place. Mrs. DR.. Fairchilds, of North
Carolina, is now visiting her parents
and other relatives near Haws' X
Roads; she is a daughter of Rev. Ell
bridge Kincheloe. Prof. ]. G. Hart
man and Alexander Tadlock, of the B.
B. Lightning Rod Company, who have

NJ. D., of Nashville, Tennessee, was
visiting friends in the vicinity of Lo-
Gust Mount the past week. The scribe
had the pleasure of dining with Isaac
Dunn Friday, and wish to return
thanks to Misses Alice and Matte for
the nice dinner prepared for us. Joseph
