Andrew Jackson's Education.

During each winter for two or three
years after he had reached the age Of
seven Andrew Jackson was sent to the
old field school of Mr. Branch. After
this he attended the select school which
4 Presbyterian preacher, the Rev. DR..
David Humphreys, taught in the Wax
haw settlement. He appears to have
been going to this higher school in the
spring of 1850, when the inroad of Tar
Teton created a panic in that portion of
the Carolinas. At some later period of
his youth he is said to have attended
the old Queen college or seminary at
Charlotte Il couple of terms. but the
time Is not definitely known.
AS to education, therefore, it may be
safely stated that Andrew jackson en-
joyed much more than the ordinary ad
vantage of Il backwoods boys of his
time. At the age of ten he had become
so good n reader that he was often
chosen to read the newspaper to the
assembled neighbors and he remCm-
bered with pride in after years that he
had thus had the honor of reading out
loud" the Declaration of Independence
upon its arrival in the WaXhaws. For
a lad OF ten this was. indeed, some
thing to remember with honest pride

Bonn and were unrestrained in their
expressions of wonder. admiration and
approval of the room where the mas

and finally one young lady seated her
self at his piano and proceeded, with
true American confidence, to play the
Moonlight Sonata" Beethoven's own
work, in his own room, on his own
piano. Such an interesting combina-
ton.
The old caretaker stood there, stern
and silent. When the performance was
over the young lady turned to the old

II suppose many musicians have
been here and have played on this in

This ungallant act plainly embar-

"It won't do Il bit of good to change

see you quite as plainly over there as

Sacred MONKEYS of India.

In Living Animals of the World
some curious stories are told about the
habits and characteristics of the mon
key tribes. 1t seems that the entellus
monkey is the most sacred of all in
India. 1t is gray above and nutty
brown below, long legged and active, a
thief and an impudent robber. In one
of the Indian cities they became such
q nuisance that the faithful determin-

monkeys were deported in covered
carts and released many miles off But
the monkeys were too clever. Having
thoroughly enjoyed their ride. they re-
fused to part with the carts and, hop
ping and grimacing, came leaping all
the way back beside them to the city,
grateful for their outing. One city OBJ
tanned leave to kill the monkeys, but
the next city then sued them for kill

With all on board than to have crossed.

When the Disease Let Go.

An old man was just recovering from
an operation, and as he lay regaining
consciousness he heard the doctor say
to a nurse regarding some powders
to be given him. IF one every hour is
too much give him a half one every
half hour" The old gentleman raised
himself up ON his elbow and said:
"Say, doe. that reminds me of man
that had Il Newfoundland dog His
wife got 50 tired of having him Che

and porches that finally she made her
husband take the dog to town and

WAYS Of the FLYING Fish.

Flying fish swim in shoals varying
in number from II dozen to a hundred
or more. They often leave the water
at once, darting through the air in the
same direction for 200 yards or more,
and then descend to the water quickly.
rising Ggain and then renewing their
flight. Sometimes the dolphin may be
seen in rapid pursuit. taking great
leaps out of the water and gaining up
on his prey, which take shorter and
shorter flights vainly trying TO escape,
until they sink exhausted. Sometimes
the larger sea birds catch flying fish
in the air. The question whether the
flying fish use their fins at all as wings
is not fully decided The power of
fight is limited to the time the fins
remain moist.

To Hear
From

l oOPGR.

G We wish - cali the attention o s public to
to series Of saort aI5s by l.. 7. Cooper that are
TO be published in this paper.
G, The Cooper medicines have made q remarkable re-
cord IN the leading cities Of the United States during the
past two years and young Mr. Cooper has been the SUBJ
ject Of much newspaper comment.
a, Mr. Cooper has met and talked with thousands of
sick people III his visits to almost every large city in the
country.
a. He is noted of very few words and tells
briefly in these articles what his preparations are doing
for sick people and why they have been successful
wherever introduced.
Mr. Coopers theory that one half of all human ills
caused by stomach trouble, and the wonderful sue
cess OF his preparations in the treatment of stomach
disorders kidney and liver complaints rheumatism etc.
seems to have proven this claim.
l Some time ago we secured the agency for these cee-
braGed medicines We have been gratiied by the
extreme satisfaction of those who have purchased them
from us and advise every one read these "shor tas''
as they are full of terse, common sense.
