The Renewal a Strain.

Vacation is over. Again the
school bell rings at morning and at
noon, again with tens of thousands
the hardest kind of work has begun,
the renewal of which is mental and
physical strain to all except the most
rugged. The little girl that few
days ago had roses in her cheeks, and
the little boy whose lips were then
so red you would have insisted that
they had been kissed by strawber-
ries," have already lost something
of the appearance of health. Now
is time when many children should
be given a tonic, which may avert
much serious trouble, and we know
of no other so highly to be recon-
mended as Hoods Sarsaparilla,
which strengthens the nerves, per-
fects digestion and assimilation, and
aids mental development by building
up the whole system.

How the Deer Signal.

A gregarious animal has usually
many means of communicating with
its fellows. The well-marked livery
of the species serves it as his uni
form does a soldier-it lets friend
and foe alike know who he is.
Next in importance is the white
flag with which most deer do their
wig-wag signaling. This is the tail
and its surrounding disc. The sud-
den elevation of this white tail when
danger is sented conveys at once a
silent alarm to the next of its kind.
Another signal that | have not
seen noted by any one else is thus
described by K. A. Preble during his
trip to the Barrens IN 1900. Though
the observation applies to the Bar
rem ground species, | believe it will
be found equally true of the wood
land.
Soon after leaving our camp on
the morning of August 13 we saw
some Barren ground caribou. A
young buck on a point of land as
approaching as closely as the depth
of the water would permit about
200 yards. He showed little fear,
trotting along the shore abreast of
our boat for about quarter of a
mile. He would frequently stop
and wade some distance towards the
boat, at short intervals spreading
and contracting the white patch on
his throat literally into an oval disc,
so abruptly as to give the effect of
flashes of light. He finally grew
tired of following us and drifted be-
hind"
What was the caribou doing?
Apparently signaling to what might
be others of his own kind out on the
water.
The caribou's grunt, or bark, as
Professor ID. G. Elliott calls it, |
have never heard in a state of ma
turs, but it is said to be much like
that of reindeer, and my notes on
this are very full.
"On July 4. 1900, got into herd
of about 1000 half-wild reindeer.
Their only vocal sound is grunt;
this is uttered singly or else doubled
that is, two are given in rapid sue
cession. 1t is sometimes the call of
a COW to her calf and sometimes is
uttered by one that is left behind,
evidently q note of alarm or inquiry
to find out if his friends are close at
hand"

Manson. In Hardeman county, Mr..
Manson's home, action was taken in
his interest. This left Fayette and
Shelby counties. In the former the
friends Of Manson had O mass conven-
tion called, and they thought to freeze
Patterson out by thus leaving him only
about week in which to canvass the
county. He accepted the gage of bat
tie, however, made a whlrlwind cam
pa1gn, and at the showdown carried
the mass convention by snug MAORI
ty. This, with his home county, gave
him the nomination. He was twice
nominated for congress thereafter
without opposition. In the last con-
vention he was nominated by the very
faction from whose ranks has come the
present opposition to him. In not one
of his races has he ever been a machine
candidate, and everybody in this coun-
ty knows that this is true.
I'VE favor Patterson over Bond for
reasons set forth. We favor him over
Cox because he has not been the crea-
ture of machine, because his official
record is clean, because he is able and
honest and is not mere tax eater and
small politician like the present guber-

Why We Prefer Patterson.

The Chattanooga Times continues to
repeat Cox's exploded charges against
Patterson, and also to claim that Pat
terson has always triumphed in his
contests because he has had a machine
behind him.
We need not say anything more
about the SANDERS circulated by Cox
against Patterson. They have all been
SO thoroughly ref1ted that it is not
necessary to refute them again.
The Commercial-Appeal does not or
dinarily take sides in gubernatorlal
contests among democrats. But it has
made an exception in the present fight
for several reasons.

West Tennessee ought to be allowed tc
