AID Old Citizen Dead.

j. I'll. McRee quietly breathec
his last at the home of his son, DR..
f. M. McRee, one mile west OF
the city last Tuesday evening, OF
old age. The funeral service was
held at the residence of his son
Wednesday at II o'clock a, M,
conducted by Rev. E. +. Hend,
rick, and the remains were laid to
rest at Antioch Cemetery at 2:30
in the afternoon in the presence of
large crowd of sorrowing friends.
Mr.. McRee was born in Lincoln
County, Tennessee, in the year
1918; grew to manhood and resided
in that county until 1919. In 1910
he was married to Miss Frances
Mavira Hayes. With his wife and
little children he moved from his
old home to Obion County and
settled on farm near Crystal,
where he resided until a few years
ago. Since that time he has made
his home with his son.
He has been in feeble health for
a long time, and his death was not
a surprise, though it cast a gloom
over a large circle of friends and
acquaintance in this and adjoin-
inc counties. He made a profes-
sion of religion in 1870 and united
with the Cumberland Presbyterian
Church, and has since lived an up
right, godly life.
He was very successful in his
business transactions and had ac-
cumulated a snug amount of this
worlds goods.

Since the above was in type the
said intelligence comes that the
aged and faithful wife of the de-

weight of years and the shock
caused by the death of her long

last last Thursday and has gone to

SOCIETY'S NEW MANIA.
At Present 1t Is Considered the
Proper Thing In Society to BE
Pleased with Everybody,

The experts in the matter of so
cial department have observed a new
fashion which marks the summer OF
1902. It is a year of great cordiality
of manner and warmth of feeling
says the Chicago Inter Ocean.
Nowadays it is distinctly bad form
in the sets that think they know
more than any others about good
form to criticise or say any harsh
things about anybody. Every wom-
an must be thought at least charm
ing if she is manifestly too plain to
be called beauty; and if there is
the least ground for it she must be
called beautiful.
All men are attractive, whether
they are rich or not. Every enter
tainment, from the dullest dinner to
the dance that has five girls to'every
man, must be pronounced COM
plete success, and it is unforgivable
in the tenets of this new style ever
to be bored or to intimate that life
is not Just the gayest, happiest,
most delightful thing that ever was
known.
That is the viewpoint that prevails
to-day in society, That it will con-
tinue nobody believes. 1t merely
marks a revulsion against the old
manner of crticising every person
and everything, which was for
awhile considered a mark of having
experienced and enjoyed everything.
TO be bored then was sign of
safety. TO be constantly critical
showed that better things had been
enjoyed. At least it was the inten-
tion of every person who adopted
this pose while it was in favor to
give this impression.
Some enterprising persons in So
ciety saw that there was bound to
be revulsion against the cynical
way of talking and thinking, so they
began the new pose. It's success
was so great that everybody who
saw its wonderful effects initiated
them.
Now there is nothing but optimism
and brotherly love to be found on
all sides. 1t is to-day as viruIent a
fashion as the other mood of cynical
criticism used to be.
Another reason for the popularity
Of the new fashion was the intro
luction into society of number of
persons of great wealth who might
not always be found up to every
other standard. In the matter OF
breeding for instance, or possibly in !
heir social relations, there might be
ground for criticism. The desire to !
zee only what was attractive in them
made it necessary to be optimistic
n at least charitable. So every cir
helped the vogue of the
lew fashion.

HOUSEHOLD TALKS.
FREELY Bits Of Floral Decoration
Which Lend Eject to an Alter
noon Luncheon,

| The nasturtinm is peculiarly at
tractive flower for table decoration
not only on account of its richness o
coiorIng, but becauseit is such an al
petizlngiy clean and spicy flower, "goot
enough to eat" Massed in low dist
over the edge of which the flowers
crowd, they make brilliant splash o
color. They should be used only Will
white or pale green china, however
says the New York Tribune.
Flowers which naturally mass low
are more suitable for ia BILE decoration
| than those whose beauty must be sac.
rlfleed by the cutting of long stems
Nloiets are among the former. An
edge of delicate ferns, preferably
! maidenhair, make the most exquisite
setting for the dainty violet. There
are numerous pretty designs for in
dlVldual decorations, as violet lunch
con, the flower lending itself easily to
reproduction. A Gala lily filled with
French violets is a pretty thing to
lay at each plate. Lemons, cut in
halves lengthways, the pulp replaced
with candied violets, are enticing fla
vors; and place cards, laid with vo-
let ribbon and having a violet stick
pin run through as souvenir, are al
ways appreciated by women.
Wild flowers in their season are much
in favor for luncheons at country
houses, and cowslips, earlier in the
season; buttercups, daisies and red
clover heads later lend hint of sum-
mer freshness not found in dollhouse
blooms. The common garden flow
ers also furnish masses of pure, bril-
liant color, which under the skillful
hand can be made daily Joy. Moth
ing need be said of the sweetpea, most
graceful, delicate and poetic of gar
den blooms. Not only it's color and
fragrance, but its shape makes it eff
feetive for decorative purposes, and it
is sufficiently plentiful to be used in
delicate abundance. The garden vari-
cites now range from white to an al
most black maroon or purple, through
every varying hue of lavender and
rose; and the great punches, tied with
ribbon of their own tint, never cease /
to be welcome at the individual plates.
Few people appreciate the decora-
tive effect of bachelors buttons, whose |
sedate and sober blue would go well
with the blue and white dishes of a
colonial luncheon. No other flower
furnishes the pure, brilliant reds
'ound in the geranium bed; and the
act that it is common bloom does
lot hinder the fine, large Powered va
leties of the single red geranium
rom giving a splendid effec. of massed
'olor on white table. Peonies, pink
md white, give specially luxurious
fleet, and are pretty with delicate
link china, or white dishes banded or |,
lowered in pink.
For chidren's luncheon, decora.
ion which will attract the eye of tho
title folks is mold of damp sand,
'aving flowers pressed in, to simulate
little formal flower garden. 1t

The convention smashed many of the
states which had been prepared early
In the day and still later in conference
during the noon recess. One of the
sensations of the day was an attempt
to induce John w. Wattawa, the nomi-
nee for lieutenant governor, to with
draw from the ticket because of Ger
tain rumors concerning the KeWaunee
man. Mr.. Wattawa refused absolutely
to entertain the proposition, and the
conference then set about to fix up,a
slate for the rest of the ticket which to
their minds would be winner. In this
they were fir from being successful,
fer with but two exceptions more than
one name went before the convention.
The biggest surprise of the day and
Il sensation at that was the turning

Scarcely had Mr.. Rogers finished
reading the resolution when another

stated that il had been decided to re-
fer all resolutions to a committee on
resolutions. Still another delegate made
a motion to adjourn. This was put and
adopted with almost a unanimous vote,
there being not more than two or three
feeble protests. The resolution there
fore was completely ignored. The con.
