MARE RECOVERED.
Was Stolen Near This City
Five Months Ago.

DIR. R. w. Ware this week went to
Springfield, Tenn, and recovered
his mare stolen Nov. 8, 1904. She
was found loose in the suburbs of
Springfield few days afterwards,
by M. C. Moore, formerly of this
place, who took her up. Her front
foot was badly cut with wire and
her name had been cropped off
roughly, as with knife. She was
weak from loss of blood. Mr.. Moore
kept her up for two months and doc
tored her foot. He advertised her
and she was appraised at SIS in her
crippled condition. DR.. Ware
learned Of her whereabouts through
Mr.. Moore's son, who was in the
city. He went to Springfield to
identify the mare and as soon as she
saw him she came up and laid her
head on his shoulder. DR.. Ware
made a satisfactory settlement and
the mare was brought home Tues
day. The thief evidently turned
her loose after getting her so badly
injured that she was unable to tray
ell. She is apparently entirely re-
covered from the injury.

NEW DEPARTURE.
Big Sale Now On At Sinking
Fork.

Mr.. T. G. Hiser, the Sinking Fork
merchant, is out this week in large
posters, announcing a big sale,
which began Tuesday of this week
and will continue until April 20.
The manager of the establishment,
Mr.. w. c. Stevens, has just returned
from the markets, where he bought
largely of merchandise in general,
and at prices which enable him to
sell SO low that his customers are all
intensely interested. This sale is a
new departure in the mercantile
business at Sinking Fork, and the
people for miles around are flocking
to the store to share in the bargains
offered.

A humorist complains that there
are SO many who can not appreciate
joke. Perhaps the things the
humorist tells are chestnuts, and
not jokes. A joke is an awkward
circumstance and to be appreciated
must be fresh. Trying to tickle
people with stale or half-baked
humor is like trying to make them
like water that has been standing
in an open bucket in the warm sun
for two or three hours. The COM
plainant should try to dig up some
thing new and unheard of, and if
he can't do that he should stop
trying to be funny and 60 to preach
ing the straight gospel of truth and
Soberness. Many man has failed
as provoker of mirth and merri.

dry, uninteresting, but profound

ters and grand-daughthers too have
many pretty dresses with very few
hand made stitches on them for she
and each of her daughters have sew
ing machines. She has large in

of freshly set eggs and out in the sun
on the piazza is brooder full of little
downy chicEs. She aga n gves to the

cream into the churn bitches the band

and leaves it to churn itself. She never
sits by the loom weaving any more
for her floors are covered with beauti-
full ingrane and BRUSSELS carpets. The
windows are all covered with blinds
and lace curtains, so the sun don't
bother her any more. When she was
20 years of age she could be seen every
day packing great pals of water from
the spring below the house, but now
she has hydrant in the pantry which
gives her all the water she can use,
yes, and more too. When she has every
thing completed she takes father his
lunch and drink when she thinks how
much nicer it is to see father taking
it easy riding on that new riding pillow
of his. On the opposite side of the
field she can see her grand son
mounted on riding harrow. He
thinks it great fun out there in the
cool breeze she says when she thinks
of how her own son (who is now plant
ing corn with self planter,) used to
have to walk back and forth across
the field behind an old foot harrow.
Then with her large soft eyes she
glances up the road to see an auto
mobile coming at full speed she thinks
how different from 80 yerrs ago.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Special Correspondence to the Herald
from the Nations Capital.

Now that the extra session has
been definitely announced for Nov.
II, there is good chance to sur
vey the field and see what the
EARLIER move is likely to accom-
plish. Of course at this season, the
extra session will merge into the
regular one, and it ought to result
in winding up the business at least
month earlier in the summer than
would be the case if congress did
not meet till the regular date. There
will be no fight over the speaker
ship, the committees are all pro-
vided for, and there is no reason
why the two houses should not be
ready for work by the third week
IN November and keep at it till
Christmas holidays. There is no
need to blind oneself to the fact that
there is going to be a strong senti-
ment against any tariff legislation,
but it might as well be clearly un-
derstood also that the president is
bent on adjusting several things in
tlat line that appear to him at
present to need adjustment. Either
his wishes must be met or the presi-
dent must be brought to the same
way OF thinking as the leaders in
the senate. The matter probably
will be debated at some length on
the floor and doubtless a middle
way will be found that may not
exactly suit everyone but which
will preserve harmony in the party.
There are good many people that
think some of the protected inter
ests are protected too highly. Many
others honestly believe that the pro-
lection policy that brought about
the present prosperity Of the coun-
try should be allowed to stand.
Unquestionably lowering of some
Of the schedules would produce
more revenue which is one point
that will have to be seriously con-
sidered. Also the attitude of for
eign countries which are all with
the exception of Great Britain,
preparing to enforce retaliatorv
tariffs against us, will have to be
considered. Any tariff tinkering"
so called, is bound to disorganize
business for q short time, but the
president is taking the broad view
OF the situation and does not propose
to plunge the country into any
vortex OF rapid change at this parti-
cular time. Possible the senate
may be brought to look more kind
ly at the reciprocity treaties that
they formerly rejected. At any rate
there is both an external and in
ternal situation that must be wisely
and courageously met and Presi-
dent Roosevelt will not hesitate TO
put the matter SO clearly to con-
gress that any evil results from
negligence and dilatoriness will fall
where they belong on the shoulders
OF those who refuse to act.

The Changes Wrought in Fifty Years.

Fifty years ago my grandmother
was but mere child. She remembers
how she used to have to 60 out in the
great wheat fields behind her father
and be all day in binding five or six
res of wheat which they had to bind
by hand. Now during harvest time
in every wheat field can be seen a
machine, with man sitting on it; it
is called the binder. This machine
cuts and binds the grain as we'll as
grandmother tied it with her hands,
and as we'll as her father cut it with
his cradle.
Every morning Of the world, her
poor tired mother would drag her
self down cellar to skim the last
nights milk which took her from
thirty to sixty minutes. Then she
would come up stairs and there on
the large dining table. the many dirty
dishes greeted her eyes, land they plain
ly showed that they did not intend to
remain in that condition, but must be
washed, dried and put neatly in a
cupboard. There were the dirty car
pc to he swept and cleaned. Then
the many beds to be punched, twisted
and smoothed. She has to be very
careful about the fires, which every
now and then have to be fed to keep
then gcilg. Now she must 90 to
work on her daughters dress with a
little steel needle she sews and sews
until her weary fingers were about to
drop off. She then thinks about the
neglected setting hens which have
to be attended to; there is one old hen
that has brood of chickens, a pen
must now be found for them. Then
she turns her steps toward the large
cool spring house where she spends
the rest of the morning in turning the
crank Of a heavy churn. After the
dinner dishes are put away she sits
by the loom where she has sat for at
least an hour every day for six weeks
before, working on an unfinished car
pet. The sun shines thro' the glass
panes OF the little window, with so
much heat, that she hastens 10 seek a
newspaper to cover the window with.
After she has toiled over the Garnet
she thinks she will go and see what ia.
Their is doing; there he is a Juggling
| along in the burrows of an old walk
ing pillow. AS she turns to 60 back to
the house, she looks up the road and
saw someone driving a team of lean
lank ponies to carriage full of peo-
pie. My great uncle and his brothers
can be seen at the barn, putting great
loads OF hay up to the loft with pitch
pork; and altogether she thinks what a
hard old world this is now. In the
year OF 1905, she gets up and goes to
the spring house with feet as light as
girl, puts the milk in the separation
can, then she turns the crank which
requires but little effort, but before
she does this she puts the dirty break
fast dishes in the dish washer
when she comes back they are ali
washed, then she lets the dirty dish
water out and puts on some BOILING
water, then they are soon dry. She
now gets the carpet sweeper runs if
over the carpets and soon thew are
spotless of dust. She goes up stairs to
the beds which are mattressed over
springs, spreads and smooths them
over, then they are ready for the oc.
cupants again. She never pays any
attention to the fire any more for the
| house is heated by steam. der danoh.
