SURE REMEDIES
FOR SNaKE-BITES
As Given Reporter Of the Nash
vile Tennessean by Sam
Griffith, of Tracy City

"Many PEOPLE b4!ieve that whiskey
is the only remedy for snake bites, -
said Sam Griffith. of Tracy City,
Tenn, at the Tulane. 81 know of
remedy that will never fail. / have
tried it and known others that used il
with success, If you ever have a snake
to bite you the first thing you want to
do is to find chicken. Kill the fowl
and apply the hot entrhils to the
wound. Every drop of poison injected
by the reptile will be taken out and
your life saved. Another good aud
sure remedy is to take crushed onions
and salt and repeat the application un-
til the pain ceases and all the poison
is drawn out. l have known people
who suffered snake bite to bury the
wound in mud and let it remain there
for several hours. This has been done
with good effect, II a copperhead
snake bites you, kill tue reptile. split
it open and bind around the wound.
He will undo what he has done. All
these remedies l know from experience
to be all right and safe. Nashville
Tennessean.

Going to meeting has been the order
of the day and night, also. for the past
two weeks
We have had a good revival at Shi-
lob. There were at least 25 CONVEX
sions. Twelve were baptized Wednes-
day evening ami one baptized by i'm
mersion and one by sprinkling Sun
day, and there are still some more to
be baptized. We have had one of the
greatest revivals that has ever been at
Shiloh in many years.
This is moving week in this neigh
borhood. Some of our neighbors are
moving away and SOME new neighbors
coming in to occupy the places they
moved from.
A wedding occurred Friday which
was surprise to many. 1t was that
of Sherman Wallace's widow, Mrs.
Ada Wallace, and Geo. Case. He has
three children and she has six. Her
husband has only been dead about four
months.
Will some one please send Mr. Loach
a calendar for this year, He can't
keep up with the days of the week.
He got up Saturday morning and be-
gan fixing to go to Sunday school at
Shiloh and found out it was Saturday
and went to the postofice instead of
Sunday school.
We are having very good Sunday
school now, and our intention is to
have prayer meeting at Shiloh now
every Thursday night. We hope to
make the people around here more re-
ligious. of possible. Violet.

For 1t

l tell you, Mr.. Editor, it is the last
stepping stone to the Jail house to be
expelled from school on account of bad
manners and bad conduct. Well, after
transacting the business that they were
called on to perform, and finding Miss
Annie's school in very progressive
and prosperous state, the board retired
for home, and on their leturn they
made stop at Oak Grove and found
Miss Minerva Pope hard DIT work in
hei school, and found the school in
fiourishing condition. Miss Pope seems
to be a fine teacher, with very COM
mendable executive abilities. Then
leaving Oak Grove school, they went
to the Mineral Spring school and
found Miss Emma Smith doing very
satisfactory work in her school. and
found her school we'll organized and
under good control. They seemed to
think that our Hon. County Board has
done their duty in giving us good
teachers this year for our district
schools.
Well, Mr.. Editor, for fear | weary
your patience and the patience of
your host of readers, / had better

Deafness Cannot be. Cured

by local application as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
andthat is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an lnflamed con,

tachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound of
imperfect bearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is theresult, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition. hearing will be destroyed

Watch out, Mr.. Editor, for deluge
of subscriptions in the form OF one

is no idle talk, either.
The above from correspondent is
encouraging. We have been working
for twenty years on this paper waiting
for a "deluge of subscriptions" to hit
us, but they haven't materialized. We
get awfully weary sometimes of spend
ing so much time, brain and energy
week after week in the production of
a newspaper which meets with so lit
tie support from the people at large,
and yet every ouc9 and while some
one charges us with making lots of
money. For every dollar we get we
have dozen places to put it, for some
thing is eternally wearing out or
somebody swindling US out of what
we have earned. 1t is discouraging,
but there is one consolation, that is,
fifty years from now it will be all over
with as far as the fools who are be-
hind this shetland are concerned. BY
all means let us nave those subscrip-
lions, and make us cheer up. For ev-
cry dollar subscription you send us,

Some people think the way to induce

alize and exhort him to stop in the in

much mistaken. No one ever saw one
instance in thousands where a whis-
key seller ceased to practice his VIC

private enterprises. The doctrine
of self-goyernment is not in peril
nor on trial, but the signs are in
creasing that the methods of its ap-
plication are to be changed.
The demands for increased eff
cheney are almost clamorous and the
American people are not even mild
ly shocked at the new thought of
commission government for the
States. 1t is beginning to receive
attention, and that it is to be tried
out in the forum of public discus
sion is practically sure.
We remember the time years ago
when Editor Jordan Of the Punta
Gorda Herald proposed the abolition
of the Legislature AMI he did 1t Sc
riously. General de-ision and good
humored railery were his portion as
a consequence. but his suggestion
meets with more respectful hear
ing now. So many revolutionary
changes in human methods lie in
the womb of the future that none
of US may safely say what will and
what will no. be. The growing re-
volt in this country against the ev-
er-incre using mass of laws We are
piling up, many of them conflicting,
undesirable ant useless, with the
consequent difficulty of enforcement,
will certainly result in some form of
relief before many years.
If commission government is the
needed remedy for the weaknesses
and abuse of municipal administra-
ton, why will not the principle hold
good for a larger application-even
to the government of the State?
