oLD-FAsHIoNED COMFORT.
Andrew Jackson and the Historical
Hickory Chair.

At Knoxville, Tennessee, is shown the
hickory chair in which Andrew Jackson,
the hero of New Orleans. used to sit on his
porch in the long summer days and take
comfort in his declining years. Half a CEN
tury ago such chairs were common enough
in Indiana The pioneers had ideas of
homely comfort and to sit in one of these
chairs after day of toll was the acme of
pleasurable ease.
Statesmen of long ago-Webster Clay,
Calhoun and Benton-were partial to the
hickory chair with its broad expanse of
bottom, and no old-time hotel was complete
without a dozen or more of them in its
bar room and upon its verandas.
Recently there has been great inquiry
for these chairs 1t comes from middle
aged men and women who have seen them
in their youth at the old farm house and
from younger persons who have heard their
grandfathers talk lovingly of the comfort
of these bygone chairs. The inquiry is es-
pectally urgent in SUNNI cr when people want
all the comfort it is possible to find. 1t is
an admirable chair for all outside uses an
article of comfort in a library or smoking
room.
This demand has led to the starting of Il
factory in Indiana, where the chairs are
made in all styles ard Sizes with and with
out rockers. The stock is collected in
Brown county, where hickory OF the de-
sired quality is still to be found. The bot
toms and backs of the chairs are made of
splits from the inner bark of the hickory.
while the posts and stretchcrs are made of
young hickory with the bark on it.
The product is delightfully."- rustic in ap-
pearance, stands all sorts of wear and
weather and will last hundred years. 1t is
a great chair for farm houses city porches
and gardens. summer resorts, hotels. Of
fees and all places where a comfortable
chair is desirable.

actor who has gone abroad in recent years
met with 50 great Il success, and who was
the recipient of so many honors. Hopper's
abilities as a fun-maker. as a singer and 4
curtain speaker made him exceedingly pop
ular. His speeches at the numerous ban
quets which he attended which were
given i'll his honor, served to stamp him as
being d man of sense and of parts as well
