NUMBER TWO.

A crowd of young people from GU
vicinity went to Combs Spring
Sunday.
Miss Vertie Penick, of Martin, i
visiting the family of ]. c. Isbel
this week.
Mr.. Luther Carr, wife and littl
son, Clyde, spent Sunday with Mr.
r. f. Preuett.
Miss Matte DeBow suspended
school for one week to attend the
Institute at Louisville, Ky.
There was qnite crowd at Mr.
George Gray's Sunday. Only sever
buggies standing on the lawn.
Mr.. and Mrs. Will Foster, Of
Nashville, were the guests of Mr..
and Mrs. A. f. Evans Sunday.
Mrs. Foster and daughter, Mrs.
H. M. Ferguson, were the guests
of Mrs, Ben Banton Wednesday.
Mr.. John Preuett, one of Number
Two's hustling young farmers,
spent Saturday night with r. F.
Preuett.
Miss Matte Curry, of near Troy,
who is attending the Institute at
Union City, was in our vicinity
Saturday.
1 guess Old Rusti didn't think
the lady would care anything about
his appearance or age either, as he
didn't say anything about either
one.
The hustling thresher men,
Whipple & Flack, are sweeping
things as they go. They have an
other weeks run yet. l do hope
they will have nice weather.
Some of the correspondents said
the merchants were out looking af-
ter the little grams of wheat, l
am afraid they will have to take
spy glass to see some of them, as
they are both light and scattering.
l hope the correspondents will
have nice time at the picnic. I
wish | could attend, but can't, so
want some of you more fortunate
than l, when you are having such a
nice time, to think kindly of the alb
sent ones.
l don't see why we can't have
more correspondents like John Bar
leycorn. If we did there would be
more demand for The Commercial
than there is now. That is right,
don't fail to write every week like
some of us do. But If you were
shut up in the schoolroom all the
week with the piercing eyes of
strict school na'am you might neg
ect sometimes yourself.

ReDuisyye Textures.

Blackheads, pimples, greasy faces
and muddy compilations, which are SO
common among women, especially
girls at certain age, destroying beau
ty, disfiguring and making repulsiye
features which would otherwise ap-
pear attractive and refined, indicate
that the liver is out of order. An &C.
casiOnal dose of Herbine will cleanse
the bowels, regulate the liver and so
establish clear, healthy complexion.

you know, Samburg Hotel is the
actual central point of the Lake,
from which all fishing and hunting

from fifteen minutes to an hour.
Directly in front of the hotel, so
close, in fact, that 1t strains ones
neck to look to the top of it, is the
highest Indian mound known to be

airy, comfortable rooms, and the
kitchen and dining room are them

such a place as pleasure parties
and commercial travellers have. al

The baseball game was called at
4 o'clock. The teams contesting
were from Martin and Union CITY

was close and interesting. But an
accident to the Union City catcher
forced him to retire, and from

so affected the stock.
Brooklyn Transit. which was next
in point of activity, was reactionary
on what seemed profit-taking. Anal
gamated Copper, Erie and Pennsylvan-
ia were very conspicuous in the trad
ing and had periods of strength. The
buying of Erie was attributed largely
to London account So long as trad
ing continued in London the market
showed points of strength, but after
wards the advance melted away very
generally, Brooklyn Transit receding
to near the low point of the morning
dip. The upward squirt in Peoples Gas
was apparently due to a judicial de-
cision in favor of the company.
