That our American forests abound ii

That our American forests abound in
plants which possess the most valuable
medicinal virtues is abundantly attested
by scores of the most eminent medical
writer's and teachers. Even the untu-
tored Indians had discovered the useful
ness of many native plants before the
advent of the white race. This informa-
tion, impaired freely to the whites, led
the latter to continue Investigations until
to-day we have rich assortment of most
valuable American medicinal roots.

CHANGES ON
INTER-URBAN.
Two Trains Less Between Nashville
and Columbia.
SCHEDULE BECOMES
EFFECTIVE SUNDAY.

A permanent schedule, effective
Sunday, has been made out for the
operation Of trains on the interurban
service of the Louisville & Nashville
between Nashville and Columbia, and
1t is stated that the new arrange
ments, which will dispense with two Of
the trains that now run on that line,
were made after thorough canvass
of the territory to be effected and
that the permanent adjustment Of the
schedule will accommodate the pas
sengers in the territory as well as
the more complicated service that
has been In an experimental stage for
the past two months. Besides attend
ing to all the passenger travel be-
tween the two points, the withdrawal
of the two trains will mean better
schedules and less layouts for the
freight business and enable the
freight trains to make better time on
that section Of the line traversed.
The changes are as follows:
The Columbia accommodation, No.
80, that formerly left Colombia at
6 o'clock a. M. will leave at $50 a.
m. and will reach Nashville at S:15
a. m. instead OF TAO q. m. ~ hereto
FORE
The Columbia accommodation, No.
go, that formerly left Columbia at
$40 q. M, will leave at $3.50 a. M.
arriving at Nashville at 1855 a. m.
instead Of 1925 a. m. a. heretofore.
Trains No. SO and 90 will be dis
continued and the balance Of the
schedule viii be maintained as here
tofore. The interurban service has
been generally satisfactory to both
railroad men and the travelling pub
lie, and the new schedule, 1t is said,

tween Nashville and Columbia. Fri

New York, Feb. Sit is at last de
termined that many of the fashions. Sc
popular last year are to remain with
us through the coming season. Gu
impes and undersleeves or long cuffs
will continue the favorites they were
last year in combination with silks
and muslins. The latter are shown in
much beflowered patterns, the bios
SONS being very large and handsome.
If possible they are even prettier than
last year. Rose and carnation de-
signs are particularly charming, and
one pattern in geraniums, flower and
leaf, is lovely
The embroidered Swiss muslins also
are great favorites. Some of these
are all white, some in combinations
of color, and some in black and white.
The latter are very attractive either
with a white ground with widely
scattered spray embroidered in black
or a black ground with large or small
sprigs in white. A gray ground is
also shown with dainty gray sprig
design, this being newer than the
black and white.
The Partisan fancy for shades of
gray which have been so decidedly
in evidence all Winter promises to
hold over into the Summer and very
likely into the late Autumn. Some
Of these gray Swisses are embroid-
cred in self-tones, some in white and
some in black A creamy gray is much

or covered with tiny sprigs of both
black and white set far apart
Linen and batistes are also very
popular covered with these same en-
broidered sprigs. Sometimes the
decoration is in opposite color from
the groundwork, but embroidery in
the tone of the material is really in
better taste
Linens are shown in every conceiv-
able variety and quality White Of
course leads, but colors are seen in
plenty and by no means pale of
shade. Blue, violet and rose are
shown with lovely embroideries to
match on white ground work.
These trimmings are in different
widths for edgings or insertings, or

BEECHAM WAS
EASY FOR JACK O'BRIEN

ENTHUSIASTICALLY England, Au-
gust 22.-Jack O'Brien Of Philadelphia, who
claims to be the champion pugilist of
America, met Ted Beecham, one of Eng
lands best big men, here Saturday night.
The fight was scheduled to go ten rounds,
but OBrien knocked Beecham out in the
second round
O'Brien's speed and cleverness baff1ed
Beecham SO completely as to make him
look like novice and simply astounded
the large crowd of spectators. In the first
round O'Brien began, by cautiously sizing
up his opponent. feinting and drawing him
into leads and dancing around him. Before
the end of the round O'Brien had satisfied
himself that Beecham was not fast enough
for him, and began to fairly jab his head
on. Then In the second round OBrien
toed the mark and opened up in earnest on
Beecham, landing hard lefts and rights on
the local man so rapidly that he could not
cover up to avoid punishment, and he
soon went down In a heap, completely
knocked out 1t was a great victory for the
American.
Last night O'Brien signed articles to
meet Hackenschmidt. the Russian Lion
in a fistic match in October for a big purse
said to be $4,000.
