A nervous, irritable mother, often on

ton and reacts upon herself. The
trouble between children and their
mothers too often is due to the fact
that the mother has some female weak

for her 10 do anything calmly.
The ills Of women act like a hrebrand

taken back to the scene of his crime
was hanged and burned near the spot
where he committed the deed He

the mob.
BY the time the negro was over
taken near Bradley last night fully

to tree near by.
Before life was extinct the body was
lowered to the ground, when logs and
brush were heaped upon it and the
mass was ignited.
Two hours later the charred body
was buried under the same tree, un
der the direction of a deputy marshal
from Purcell, who had been thwarted
in his effort to take the negro from

medicines and all the simple remedies

worse all the time.
FINALLY doctor who Is the most
prominent physician in this part OF
the state told me medicine would do
me no good, only irritating my stOm-
ach and making it worse-that must
look to diet and quit drinking coffee.
II cried out in alarm, Quit drinking
coffee!' why, What will drink
"'Try Postum said the doctor, I
drink 1t and you will like 1t when 1t is
made according to directions, with
cream, for 1t is delicious and has none

lon0seilow Estate Changes Hands.
The famous Longfellow estate In
Byfield, which has been in possession
of the family for more than 200 years,
has been divided and sold, says the
Newbury (Mass.) Dispatch. The
house is now occupied by Charles
Longfellow, eighth in line of descent.
Notwithstanding assertions to the
contrary, it has always been declared
by the Byfield Longfellows that the
poem The Village Blacksmith" was
written by Henry Wadsworth Long
fellow in recognition of the smithy
which once stood on this very site,
and was conducted by Stephen Long
fellow, the second of the name. who
was born in 1855. Other famous po-
ems were written there.
