With Polished Nails.

A large, shaggy, rough-necked per-
son came into haberdashery in
Washington and asked the clerk-a
bored young person who wore very
high collar and was much interested
in the polish on his nails-for a shirt.
The clerk passed out two, one pink
and one blue.
Which of these is best?" asked the
customer.
The clerk yawned, examined his
nails and said: ooh, It's just matter
of taste"
But which kind would you get II
you were a-buyin' one of 'em?"
Personally, l should prefer the
blue one" answered the salesman,

Entertainment.

The boys and girls of the
grange gave their plays at the
Bank hall Wednesday night to a
large and appreciative audience.
The boys and the girls were in
a contest and according to the
judges the girlswere the" actors
but many of the people present
were very undecided as to which
play was given in the best man
ner. The girls gave "Lucia's
Lover" a three-act comedy,
while the boys presented "The
Editor-in- n-Chief, "a one-act news
paper play. They were all good
in their various parts and received
hearty applause during the entire
performance. After the show
the balance of the even ng ws s
spent in dancing and a large
part of the audience stayed for
this pleasure. The grange cleared
about $40 which will be applied
to the piano and sidewalk fund
of that institution. The jndges
of the contest were A. w. Arm

building and an auditorium.
The board met in executive session
in the Office Of the capitol superin-
tendent at 10 o'clock. Every member
was present except in case Of vacan-
cies. Secretary Russwurm presented
the resignation of Frank Fuller, Her.
mitage Station, elected at the last
meeting of the board This was done
and the board rescinded its action be-
cause of an opinion rendered by Gen.
Gates holding that the president of
the farmers institute or chosen rep
resentative should be on the board.
Accordingly Mr.. Warren was placed
on the board to fill the vacancy caus-
ed by the resignation of Newt White.
The board then. passed resolutions
on the death Of Mr.. Brown and after
some discussion left the vacancy
caused by his death open until the va
rious county fair associations meet
and signify who they want. 1t is
deemed likely, however, that Mr.. Full
Ter will be placed on the board.
BY a unanimous decision the board
will concentrate their efforts to nave
a woman's building and an audito-
rum constructed before the next
fair. Committees were appointed to
work to this end.
The following committees were ap-
pointed to solicit funds:
Committee to sec merchants and
solicit $4,000, Prof. H. A. Morgan,
w. T. Roberts. J. H. Mcdowell ana
w. S. Reeves.
Committee to see stockholders and
solicit. $4,000, May Overton, Frank
Buford. Sam Warren, J. H. Mcdowell
and w. S. Reeves.
Committee to see county court and
solicit appropriation Of $4,000 is COM
posed of the executive committee of
the board.
The board proposes to construct
woman's building and sanitarium
with this money.
The board has also added feature
by placing the woman's department
IN the hands of the women's section
|cf the farmers institute The presi-
dent of these sections will act as a
committee to see that the exhibits are
properly shown.
There will be this year three blu.
reaus of information instead OF one,
as last year. The board is arranging
for one each at the union station the
Tennessee Central depot and at the
fair grounds.

CHILLICOTHE, Mo-, Jan. 29.-The
second week Of the northwestern ex-
hibit of the Tennessee bureau of inn
migration, in charge of J. j. B. John
sonius and T. G.. Settle, representing
commissioner T. F. Peck, has been
very successful, it has been well adj

hundreds of the citizens of this city
and county.

held at very high prices, ranging from
$500 to $3.50 900 per acre. The man
Who owns q good farm in this section
is well fixed, but there is little oppor-
tunity for the man of moderate means
TO acquire farm of sufficient area to
afford him living. Consequently
many men who have accumulated
some money as renters or as farm
hands, and who want to buy land, are
looking to other sections of the coun-
try. Some in recent years have gone
TO western Kansas and Oklahoma,
out the tendency now is to lock to
the south, and to section where the
winters are not SO long and severe.
The Tennessee exhibit has been
visited by many men who are really
interested in finding section where
lands are cheap and the climate mild
e., and this first venture of the State
in advertising promises to bear good
fruit
One farmer, who owns 100 acres
and has five sons, wants to sell his
land in Northern Missouri and is in
vestigating Tennessee. He wants to
buy in some section where land is
cheap and he can establish himself
and his boys in the same neighbor-
hood. He will visit Tennessee, If the
railroads run homeseekers' excur-
sions, which it is said they are con-
templating.
Another farmer from Illinois, who
visited the exhibits, stated that he |
had just sold his farm in that state
for $185.00 per acre, and was going to
Tennessee in a few weeks, and would |
locate there if he could find farm
suited to his purpose. He is an ex-
tensive breeder of Percheron horses,
and expects to visit Middle Tonnes
see. He was supplied with literature
from the exhibit, and seemed TO be
very favorably impressed. Several
others expressed desire to visit the
state, and it is believed that home
seekers excursions from the terrific
ry covered by the exhibits will carry
many in search of milder climate and !
cheaper lands.

Would Flog Unruly Pupils

From the Baltimore News.
 If the little boys of Baltimore won't be good for fear of Santa Claus. maybe they will behave themselves when they hear that flogging masters are going to be employed in the public schools.
 At the head of certain disciplinary classes which are to be established through the suggestion of Charles J. Koch, assistant superintendent. there are to be placed men who will promptly chas- tise all boys who are guilty of miscon- duct and who will not be influenced by gentler moral suasion.
 Tt is utterly impossible for the teach CTS to control some of the boys by moral sua sion," declared Mir Koch. and in the past the teachers have displayed mucn tact and fortitude with little avail. When we appeal to the parents for suggestions and cooperation, the vast majority tell us to flog the boys and flog them well. The board of superintendents has spent much time discussing this subject, and we have agreed that it would be wise thing to establish disciplinary classes
 Mir. Koch went on to say that there is no intention on the part of the school officials to re-eestablish corporal punish ment In all the schools.
 We do not propose" he added, to go back to the method of allowing the teachers to box the ears of the pupils or to allow them to use the stick. When boy becomes unruly he will be sent to the disciplinary class which will be in charge of a competent master. ihere the child will be given another chance and if he asserts his meanness, then he will be given physical punishment. That method of treatment will continue until he is brought under subjection.'
