the damage done by tire and water to
a car load Of straw, which was put in

have originated from the stub OF a

Hlgh Pressure DAYS.

Men and women alike have to work
incessantly with brain and hand to hold
their own nowadays. Never were the
demands of business, the wants Of the
family, the requirements of society,
more numerous. The first effect of the
praiseworthy effort to keep up with all
these things is commonly seen in a
weakened or debilitated condition Of
the nervous system, which results in
dyspepsia, defective nutrition of both
body and brain, and in extreme cases
in complete nervous prostration. II is
clearly seen that what is needed is what
will sustain the system, give vigor and
tone to the nerves, and keep the diges-
tive and assimilative functions healthy
and active. From personal knowledge
we can recommend Hoods Sarsaparilla
for this purpose. Itacts on all the vital
organs, builds mp the whole system, and
fits men and women for these high
pressure days.

The Louisville & Nashville.

1t now seems to be an assured fact
that the Louisville & Nashville will
build into Chattanooga. The proposed
line will extend from the A. X. & N.
at Wetmore, and will be built almost
parallel to the present line of the South
ern to either Chickamauga, Tenn, or
Boyce, on the Cincinnati Southern and
Western & Atlantic, where it will strike
the latter line, on which it will run
into Chattanooga.
A high official of the L. & N. stated
that the building of the l.. & N. into
Chattanooga was an assured fact, and
that there seemed but little doubt that
the work would be commenced in the
very near future. He also stated that
there is at present a corps of engineers
in the field, and that part of the line
has been surveyed. He also stated that
there are several surveying crews at
work along the line Of the A. X. & N.
making improvements and building a
more direct line, and that for this rea-
son nothing more than is stated above
is being done toward the building into
Chattanooga. The proposed line would
make the distance by rail between
Chattanooga and Ducktown only about
100 miles, and the entire line from
Chattanooga to Knoxville would be
only five or six miles greater than by
the Southern. Wall Street Journal.
