ELBRIDGE.

Farmers have discontinued all
farm work until winter breaks.
The son of l.. A. Smith, of Ell
bridge, passed away on the night
of the 18th inst, after long sick
uess, and his remains were laid ia
rest in the Zion Cemetery on Wed.
nesday, followed by loving friends
and relatives.
Mrs. LESSEE King, wife of Peter
King and daughter of High Sheriff
Chiles, after short illness of pneu-
MONA, was called from this land of
Aaron to fairer and brighter land
above on the 14th inst, and her re-
mains were laid to rest in the Zion
Cemetery on the 18th. Mrs. King
leaves devoted husband, three
children, a father, two brothers
and several sisters and host of
friends to mourn her death.
If any one wants to see citizen
of the Ninth District next Friday
they will find him al Obion, as we
believe the District will turn out en-
rne.sse to hear the present and next
United States Senator speak. 1t is
true there are few weakened
Taylor men in the District, but the
most OF them will go, as they would
be so lonely at home by themselves.
There are just three TAYLOR men in
the village of Elbridge.
We suppose the editors of The
Commercial, in their comments on
our article last week, aimed to deal
US a polar sexus blow, but we are
hard to blow out. We voted for
Taylor ia his last race and also for
Mr.. Bryan. still we never believed
in free silver. and in voting for
Taylor for Governor at that time
we never obligated ourselves to vote
for him for u. S. Senator at this or
any other time. At that time we
thought that our Uncle Bob was
sincere and did what he did from
pure patriotic motives, but il seems
now, from his owr aud his friends
assertions that patriotism was not

We were dressed in a Farmers
Friend suit of blue overalls and
jacket and fighting old Beck up and
down that ditch when the young
man reached us. He said, "Can
you tell me where Mr.. -- is?'
We whoa'd and told him the man
he sought was somewhere on the
farm. The young man said, II
would like very much to see him;

flied pedagogue replied. Now, we
never did feel like we were "fitten"
for School Director, nor do we
believe we would be qualified for
the position if our face was Gov
cred all over with whiskers. But
candor compells us to say that we
believe If we had been standing
around with a billed" shirt on,
collar and tie about our neck with
our hands incased in a pair of
gloves directing some one else how
to do the blowing that in all prob,
ability this graduate would have
recognized us as a School Director,
even with this old, beardless face
of ours. The next man we bump
up against that we think is looking
for whiskers we are going to direct
him to our friend ]. M. Hamilton,
and it we decide he is looking for
fine clothes we will cite him to-
some young fellow who is working
on a salary of about $500 per
month and board. We can't grow
whiskers and can't afford to wear
fine clothes and somehow or other
we can't believe that fine clothes or
whiskers either will make a man.

ing the smallness of the crowd in
Union City to hear ex-Bob Taylor
in comparison with the number
that had been expected. We re.
traced our steps homeward, know.
ing our friend would live over the
disappointment and hoping that he
would live over the greater one to
come on May II, when "Our Bob
will be sent back to the fiddle and
bow. where he ought to go, as he
has made success in that line,
and to change jobs in his old age
he might make a failure, while Ned
Carmack has made good repre-
sentative and don't make any pre-
tense OF fiddling, so let's let well
enough alone. Let Bob fiddle and
Carmack represent.
1t .-sorter" seems like we wasn't
made just right somehow. We have
almost reached the half century
mark, yet but little beard has ever
grown on our face. We guess our
face is lacking IN the proper food
necessary to grow hair. We know
how to lnoculate land to made it
produce Alfalfa. We know that all
plant life requires ammonia, oxy-
gen, nitrogen and potash, but we
don't know what is required to
make hair grow on our own face.
If some one will give us formula
for fertilizer tor our face it might
be worth something, to some peo-
pie, at least. Now we are perfectly
satisfied with the few scattering
hairs that grow on our face, but
ever and anon in life we meet men
who seem to think we should have
grown a ceard. The last instance
of this kind occurred Monday of
last week when graduate of Beth
Ell College was in this section try
ing to secure school. Now it hap
pens that U.Know is member of
the School Board for this District,
SO the young pedagogue sought
our home, and when he arrived
found our hired man in the garden,
who told him that we were in a
certain field blowing in tile ditch.

his true incentive, but his real pur.
pose was, at some future day, to
boost himself into the u. S. Senate
The Commercial seems to intimate
that all who oppose Taylor are oil
the Palmer and Buckner stripe and
wish to see the Democratic party
GO down in defeat. w never knew
before that ex-Bob Taylor was the
Democratic party We have never
heard any charge brought against
Ned Carmack's Democracy, and we
candidly think the Democratic party
would lose great deal more in the
defeat of CarmacK than it would in
tie defeat of Taylor. Our Uncle
Bob is like peted, spoiled child.
Because he has done few things
he was asked to do he now thinks
he ought to have anything he asks
for. The sooner this spoiled patri-
otto Democratic child is spanked
good and hard the better it will be
for the Democratic party, and on
the 18th OF May that spanking will
be administered.
Monday. the 18th, as all will re-
member, was cold, cloudy day,
with a disagreeable wind from the
northeast. Late in the evening of
that day there was a sound borne
to our ears of wailing and lamen-
tations as ii some one was in sore
distress We listened and decided
there was something wrong at our
friend Lippard's, who lives about
mile northeast of our abode, so we
FASTENED across fields to learn the
trouble and render assistance If
necessary. On reaching the top of
a hill near our friends house we
stopped to listen and found that
the lamentations came from beyond
our friends house and was no more
distinct than when we started.
Then we thought Of our friends at
Elbridge, but just at this juncture
the breeze freshened and the sound
became more audible and we recog-
nized the voice of one of our good |
but misguided Taylor friends in
Union City bewailing and lament J

Guaranteed Harmless and
Beneficial.

Prof. w. E. Wadman, the great pure
food chemist of New York, says: "NO
objection can possibly apply to self-ris-
ing flour in which pure phOsphates are
the sole Ieavening agents, for the residue
left from such are neutral phosphates,
which are not only entirely harmless, but
actually beneficial. Such phosphates are
true nutrient substances, and as such are
frequently prescribed by physicians in
case of NAL nutrition. These phosphates
are normal constituents of brain and nerve
tissues, and of bone, and it is quite obvi.
Gus that they can only be true food sub
stances, and beneficial. HEDGE the nutri-
tive value of bread made from this self
rising flour Is greater than from Ordina-
