Gems in Coffee.

The green coffee that comes here
from various parts Of the world is not
as clean as it might be, therefore pre-
vious to roasting it must be winnowed
thoroughly The quantity and variety
of foreign substances expelled would
startle one. One of the leading coffee
men in New York has full pint of
garnets which he picked up in the
course of few years from the Rios,
Javas, Medellins, Mochas, etc., sent to
dim to roast. Some of the gems are
almandfnes of a deep brownish red
color and others are the ruby-colored
c--~opes. All have some value.

We NEED A SQUARE
DEAL IN FOOD PRODUCTS.

This is the era of the square deal, -
and it ought to include square deal
in food products.
There is considerable misunderstood
ing of the purpose of the agricultural
department in seeking food legislation.
1t is not to restrict trade, but to help
it. The primary purpose is to have
all foodstutfs sold under truthful labels
and to be what they are represented to

the trade Statistics have proven
that where food laws have been en-
forced there has been An increase of

they find out all particulars about the
young lady and the social standing of
the girls parents If pleased with
their investigation the mother under

LEGISLATURE is
NO MORE.
Adjourns Monday Without
Day And Without Regret.

The Fifty fourth General Assembly
of the State of Tennessee passed into
history Monday afternoon about
o'clock, although the Official time was
but IL noon. Perhaps it were better to
say that it passed into memory rather
than history.
The Senate passed a few local bills
Monday morning, concurred 10 the re
ports OF the Conference Committee on the
General and Legislative Appropriations
bills and took several recesses. Il he
Speaker, Ernest Rice. was presented
with handsome silver loving cup. about
Is inches high. The presentation was
made on behalf of the Senate and officers
by Mr.Jetton. The engrossing clerk and
her assistants were substantially remem
bered also gold headed umbrellas falling
to the m, Mr.. Garrett making the pressn-
tation address. Resolutions thanking the
press representatives were adopted.
There Was more blood on the moon"
Monday morning. Immediately after the
Senate convened Speaker Rice took the
floor and denounced j. ID. Fawcett, Of
Bristol, an Infamous liar" and INDUCED
in several other uncomplimentary refer
ences to Mr.. Fawcett. The cause was an
interview 10 the Bristol Herald credited
to Mr.. Fawcett. Mr.. Rice took up the
cudgels not only in his own behalf, but
also in behalf of Senator Bowden, Chief
Clerk Ed Thomas and Gov. Cox, all Of
whom were mentioned in the Fawcett in
terview.
Mr.. Bowden and Nj Flippin also had
question: of personal privilege, which
during the closing week of the session
we're quite fad among the Senators.
10 the House the greater part of the
morning was taken up on a resolution
directing the disch arge of Prof KiIving
ton as Superintendent of the Industrial
School. On a roll call the resolution
only received % votes and was rejected.
An attempt was made to pass the an
THRUST bill, but the roll-call was never
completed, less than a quorum voting,
and the vote beng expunged from the
journal.
Speaker Alternately was presented
with handsome diamond stud and
an umbrella; Clerk Martin and Assis-
tant Wilson with umbrellas; Misses
Harlan and Bolton, Engrossing and AS
sistant Engrossmg Clerks, with dia
mond pins, and superintendent Porter,

JONES'
BODY DISCOVERED
Founded The American Navy.
Was Buried In Paris.

PARIS. April IA The remarkable
search which Am bassadur Porter has
conducted for the Dody of Paul Jones
has been crowned with success by the
discovery of the body and Its identiti-
cation today by the highest French
medical experts, rs unquestionabIy
that of the famous American Admiral,
who founded the American navy.
Ambassador Porter cabled tC Wash
lngton tonight, announcing the success
nj results of his long and difficult
search. The EOdy is IN a good state of
preservation. considering that the in
tel took place over 100 years ago.
The circumstances leading to the
final discovery of the body are partlcu-
larry interesting. Gen. Porter has
conducted the scar for the last nye
years and when Congress recently took
no action on the President recon-
mendation for the expense incident to
TIE search, the Ambassador continued
the extensive labors at his own expense
large force of workmen has been
cross tunnelllng the old 81. Louis
Cemetery. This constituted a huge
operation, embracing nearly a block
covered with buildings and requiring
system of subterranean mining.
Hundreds of wooden caskets were
found. but not until Wednesday were
unearthed four leaden caskets which
gave promise of containing the body of
the Admiral. Three of them bore
plates designating the names of de-
ceased.
RESEMBLANCE TO MEDALLIONS.
The fourth showed superior solidity
of worksmanhlp. No plate was found
on this casket and it is supposed 1t was
removed when another coffin was
superimposed on it. The leaden coffin
was opened in the presence of Gen
Porter, Col. Bailey Blanchard, the
Second Secretary of the American EN-
bassy, and Engineer NeIs, who has
been directing the excavation. The
body was found to be well preserved.
owing to its having been immersed in
alcohol 1t was wrapped in a sheet
with packing of straw and hay.
Those present were Immediately struck
by the resemblance of the head to that
on the medallIons and busts of the
Admiral.
As was anticipated, no uniform,
decoration or sword were found, as all
such articles had been accounted for
after the burial.
The coffin is shaped like a mummy
coffin, which was common at that
eIiod, widening from the foot to the
shoulders with round top fitting over
the head.

The Causes of Headache.

1t Is probably no eXaggeratton to say
that the great majority Of habitual
or frequently recurring headaches are
the direct result Of eye troubles astig
matism or near-sightedness-which the
proper fitting and wearing of glasses
will prevent. But not all headaches
are Of this haracter-not all, even, OF
the often-recurring headaches, and II
may be well to mention some of the
other causes. -
Any form Of poisoning Is apt
to cause severe headache. Indeed, this
is the most common cause of the trou.
bic. next to eye-strain. Such a head
ache is that which accompanies fever,
or which occurs in cases of chronic
ead-pOisoning, kidney disease, hab-
itual constipation, or sleeping in unven-
tilated rooms. This is the headache also
which occurs in gout and rheumatism,
and in malaria.
| Pain in the head Of most violent
and persistent character may depend
upon some disease of the skull, and of
itself or its membranes will manifest
itself by severe pain in the head.
A variety Of paroxysmal or recur-
rent headache, which resembles some
what the eyestrain headache, and may
be mistaken for it, is one due to
catarrhal troubles in the nose, and es-
pecially in the large air-cavities In the
forehead and face connected with the
nose This headache, like one kind
due to eye-strain, comes on at q certain
time each day, and increases in inten-
sity for while, then SUBSIDIES; but its
times differ from those Of the head
aches of eye origin. The latter are
worse in the evening, but the nose
headache comes IN the early in the
morning and gradually diminlshes as
the day wears on, to disappear at sun
down.
Most of the causes Of headache
ABOVE mentioned act by inducing
changes IN pressure within the skull. |
The latter IS, Of course, unyielding,
so the effects Of pressure must be
exerted upon the brain. These pressure
changes, except in the case of a tumor
or effuslon of fluid or other material
are due to variation in the size of the |
blood vessels Of the brain. Congestive
headaches are such as are caused by
mental excitement, over-indulgence in
the pleasures Of the table, or in TO-
Oacco, tight collars or severe coughing.
Headache may also occur In anemfa
