around. However, two miles from the
cave is an enormous hole about $50 feet
long and 100 feet wide, at the bottom of
which is deep lake of clear and exceed
ingly cold water.
The curiosity part of the fact is that the
hole is 100 feet deep from the surface of
the ground to the surface of the water and
the lake has apparently no bottom and
neither inlet nor outlet. A few miles from
this lake is the site of Swingle' lead mine,
where the first settlers procured lead for
bullets
In Jefferson county also is Englishs
Mountain, in which there is 'blowing
cave" This cave has never been explored,
because strong current of air rushes from
it every four minutes with sufficient
force to extinguish any lamp or torch
Electricity has not reached that locality
yet. In Carter county are caves but with
out any striking feature. One Of them is
known as Dead Mans Cave" because
three hunters lost their way in it and were
found dead by their friends, having been
overpowered by gases.
In Monroe county, about six miles from
Madisonville, on Milk Silk Knobs, is a
very beautiful cave. The entrance is III

A narrow passage about 400 yards long
leads into magnificent chamber about 200
| feot square and over $50 feet high. Then
there is a complete chain Of chambers of
enormous SIZE connected by low, narrow
| passages. In one of these chambers is a
deposit of Ochre, and from the earth is an
ther chamber it is said that saltpetre was
once manufactured. This cavern also con-
tains very large river and millions of
stalacties, from the size of lead pencil
to nearly yard in diameter. One column
is nearly six feet in diameter.
In Warren county is Higginbotham' S
Cave, with vast chamber nearly 10 acres
in extent, and there are several very beau
tiful caves in Marion county.
Some day these caves will be thoroughly
explored by scientists, and then without
doubt, great deal of valuable information
will be added to our history of Tennessee

Texts may be, and frequently are, wrest-

example, take the case of the church 60
ing merchant who found that one of his
collectors had fraudulently retained some
of the money. To the merchants indig
nant inquiry as to the meaning of his dis
graceful action the bold offender replied
that it was the result of his following the
injunction of the Bible. Astonished be-
yond measure, the merchant asked: "What
Injunction is that?" receiving the reply,
''That which reads: Hold fast that which

Early in the century there was a sect of

and gave him an angry blow with his
clenched fist, accompanying the chastise-

NOTHING STRANGE.

Intelligent people, who realize the impor

body in normal condition, find nothing
strange in the number of diseases that
Hoods Sarsaparilla is able to cure. So
many troubles result from impure blood
that the best way to treat them is through
the blood, and it is far better to use only
harmless vegetable compounds than to
dose to excess with quinine, calomel and
other drugs. By treating the blood, with

SENSITIVE GIRLS

The problem of dealing with sensitive
girls is most difficult one for parents or
guardians. 1t is necessary that such girls
should be most judiciously managed. The
sensitive temperament is, of all others,
that which makes most unhappiness and
trouble for its possessor, until he (or she)
has trained himself to govern it and not
allow it to govern him.
The chief obstacle to helping people of
sensitive temperament, whether such peo-
pie are young or old, is the idea which
dominates most of them that their sensi-
tiveness is merit, and not to be account
ed defect or fault, or to be controlled
by the laws of common sense.
Sensitive people usually feel proud of
the suffering which proceed from the deli
cate condition of their feelings, and very
scornful of those phlegmatic folks who
show little feeling, but work along happi
ly and rude and unsvmpathetic surround
ings. This belief is shared by young girls,
who are half proud, half unhappy, over
the nature they do not yet comprehend
They go through much real misery, hug
ging their sensitive feelings to their hearts,
their pride and their unhappiness mu-
tually encouraging each other.
Sensitive people, above all others, have
most need of that grand spiritual virtue,
common sense And sensitive girls should
be carefully instructed as to the capabili-
ties and dangers of their peculiar tempera-
ment They should be taught to govern
not only their actions, but their thoughts
and feelings, by reason and judgment.
They should be shown how to argue their
misery out and reduce it to its lowest terms
before allowing themselves to be made
miserable by imaginary sorrows.
And such girls should be made to believe
firmly that no virtue lies in unhappiness
The virtue and strength is to make our
selves happy in spite Of outward circum-
stances. We were meant to be happy, not
miserable, and although it takes some de-
termination and perseverance to claim our
inheritance, it is well worth it when we
have obtained it.
For girls, or for those older who have
never been properly disciplined, such train
ing is essential before they can find any
peace or comfort ami the conflicts of an
emotional temperament. The final virtue
of the sensitive spiritual nature is be hap
py And although it may take many strug-
giles to attain this state, the mind should
be definitely made up that happiness is the
right and highest condition, and that only
weak minded people believe it a fine thing
to be miserable.

SOME TENNESSEE CAVES.

To those who are interested in natural
curlosltles Tennessee presents very ex-
tensive field. In all quarters of the state
are to be found caverns, grottoes, lakes
and other objects of interest, and to de-
scribe them at any length would require a
prodigious amount of work. Last year
Prof. Mercer, of the University of Penn
sylvania, visited Chattanooga and spent
some time in excavating in LOOKOUT, Nick
ajack and other caves, in hope of finding
the remains of extinct animals, or at least
traces of some prehistoric race.
No list of the natural curiosities of Ten
nesseee has ever been compiled, and even
the histories and descriptive schetches of
the various counties do not mention them
all. That they have been objects of inter-
est since their existence became known is
made manifest by the fact that in 1S42 a
book entitled 'Lise AS 1t Is was written
by J. w. NJ. Breazeale. A copy of this in
teresting work is in the possession L. G..
Walker, of this city.
Breazeale makes no mention of Lookout
Cave, and fails to mention also Carrolrs
Cave, one of the most interesting in Coffee
county, not far from Tullahoma In Smith
and Wilson counties there are numerous
extensive caves, but no mention of them
is made in the book.
wade the remote places of the earth it may
possibly assist them to find out something
that is at least novel, by describing the To-
cation and chief characteristics of some of
these freaks of nature.
Near Greenville, in Greene county, is a
very beautiful cave, which is fully as in
teresting as, if not more so, the mammoth
Cave of Kentucky. The entrance is in the
side of ridge, about midway between the
summit and the base, and merely a hole
about five feet square. From the entrance
is a long, narrow slope, leading into a sub
terranean chamber, with groined roof and
well turned arches and numbers of stala-
cites and stalagmites. Narrow passage
ways connect this chamber with number
of others, in one of which is "Pompey's
Pillar" column about 90 feet high, and
, feet in diameter, which glitters like IA
cluster of gems in the torchlight. In an
other chamber is Il swift flowing stream,
and in another a deep hole, from which
current of air passes rapidly.
In Jefferson county near Messy creek,
is one of the most peculiar caverns in the
country, the entrance being on a level plat
eau, and the cave itself almost horizontal
with the surface of the country. The en-
trance is like the crater of il volcano, and
when the bottom of the shaft is reached "A
passageway extends a great length in an
easterly direction. 1t has never been ex-
plored very far because of a deep stream
of water about % feet in width which has
hitherto barred further passage Away
in the distance is heard the roaring of a
much larger stream, which is thought to be
veritable underground river of no small
dimensions. The general surface of the
country is level, sparsely timbered, and
with very few springs for several miles

LONG AGO.

When opal tints and gray invade
The crimson of the west
When daylight's lingering traces fade.
And song birds seek the nest
When shadows fall DER hill and plain.
And stars in heaven glow,
We live in memory once again
The days of long ago.
And friends of days forever DER
Around us closely stand,
We feel the kindly grasp once more
OF many a vanished hand;"
And though fond, loyal, brave and true
May be the friends we know,
No friends can match the friends we knew
And loved long, long ago.
Though smiling fortune on us shower
Her gifts with right good will
Though every passing day and hour
Be filled with sunshine still
Though joys and pleasures deep abound
Upon the wav we go,
We sigh and dream o'er joys we found
In days of long ago.
And though we form new friends, new ties,
New joys. new pleasures try.
And though new hopes like phantoms rise
As in the days gone by,
When comes the holy calm of eve,
Our tears unbidden flow:
We love, we hope, we plan and grieve
Again In Long Ago.

Should come a-sailing home to me,
Weighed downed with gems and silk and gold
All, well the harbor could not hold
So many sails as there would be
If all my ships came in from sea.
If half my ships came home from sea.
Aud brought their precious freight to me,
All, we'll! l would have wealth as great
As any king that sits in state,
So rich the treasures that would be
In half my ships now at sea.
If just one ship have at sea
Should come a-sailing home to me,
All, we'll! the storm-clOuds then might frOwn
For, if the others all went down,
Still, rich and proud and glad I'd be
If that one ship came home to me-
If that one ship went down at sea,
And all the others came to me,
Weighed down with gems and wealth untold,
With glory, honor, riches gold,
The poorest soul on earth I'd be
II that one ship came not to me.
o skies, be calm o winds, blow free!
Blow all my ships home to me.
But if thou sendest home a wreck,
To never more come sailing back,
Send any, all, that skim the sea,
But bring my love ship home to me!
