Arabic Proverbs.

He who has gold is beloved, though
he be dog and the son of a dog.
Shun him who can be of NO use to
thee; in this world he cannot serve
thee, and in that which is to come
he cannot interoede in thy behalf.
1t is better to commit ten sins in
the sight of God than one in the sight
of men.
Those who are learning to shave
heads practice upon those of the or.
phans.
To the dog who has money men
say, my lord dog.
The beauty of man lies IN his in
telligence ;the intelligence of woman
is to be found in her beauty.
When the moon is with thee of
what account are the stars?
When thou seest two people in con-
stant converse thou mayest know that
the one is the dude of the other,
Obedience to women is the avenue
of hell
Consult thy wife, and do the reverse
Of what she advises.
Joy lasts for seven days, but sadness
endures for a lifetime. From
"Tuniasa, by Herbert Vivian.

EMMA SAMSON.
John Trorwood Moore's Beautiful
Poem on the Alabama 6Iri
Who Helped Forrest Find the
Ford.

The following beautiful poem was
written by Jonn TrotwoOd Moore, Of
this city. Emma Samson was a Deau-
tItul Alabama girl curing the great
civil war and won imperIshanle fame
BY her bravery in leading Gen. Ma
thaniel Forrest and his cavarly through
an unused road to ford across Black
Greek bridge. in CoOsa County, Ala-
bama, in the spring of 1868, enabling
the Confederstes to get in behind the
Federal General Sire. ght and his army,
and route item Forrest had only 42O
men, while his enemy had about l,2OO
or 500.
For long time after the war the
neroism of the brave Alabama girl
went untold and unrnwarded, until
finally MIR. John Trotwood Moore, on
learning tnat the heroine was still NV
ing down In Alabama few years ago
In very poor circumstances, decided
that something ought to be done for
her, so he embalmed her story in the
beautiful poem below. On reading
TINS story Gov. Andrew b. Moore, of
Alabama, caused TO have struck for
her a gold medal. while the Legislature
of the State, which was then in ses-
SION, became so stirred up over the
poem that it granted her a quarter
section public land, by special act.
Last week at Montgomery. Ala, at
a Confed crate Celebration the poem
was raj, and was enthusiastically
cheered.
As it has never been published IN
Maury county paper, we reproduce the
poem, which Is as follows:

Proverbs

"When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is SO perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.
