Springs, Tenn. where she goes to
test the health giving pro- erties of
the waters and mountain air there.
A letter from Mr.. Wulff arrived
in time for this issue, but an accu-
mutation of articles which in order
of arrival would have preference over
his,explains why we defer appearing
it till another edition.
A neat sign lettered ~. S. Post

suspended from the front gallery of
that building proclaiming to the
world where Uncle Sans mail bust
ness is handled in our city.
Several teachers left Monday for

well went up a few days earlier.
Representatives of wholesale drug
houses have been beseiging the ntw
drug concern of this city for a slice

sarily account of fixtures etc. will be
pretty juicy plum for those whole
salers,

By request of Jim Avera we an

S. o. Smith and II, j. Kitrcll, two
of the young men of Jonathan whose
inclinations run upon the commercial
walks of life, HE'D to Mobile last Fri
day where they will spent the Sum

business course hurts no young man
who intends to enter the storm oil
life, whatsoever profession or calling
he may essay.
We would be glad if more OF oul
friends whose accounts stard in the
attitude demanding such attention,
would favor us with subscription
monies. The receipts along that
line for the last month have been
quite disappointing though we ap
preciate the kindnes IS OF those who
did favor us. The blackberry crop Is
nearly over, so come to the rescue o
the editor with some of the glitter
ing coin.
