r~ > BACK FROM HER TRIP. Hiss Antoinette Hammond Visit* the Great Went[an?l In Charmed. Miss Antoinette Hammond has just returned from a big trip west. About two month* a?o, she left home to visit her uncle, Mr. James Rutlege, whom our older oltlzens remember very well. He lives In Fort Smith, Arkansas. Daring her stay Bhe had a most delightful time. She is eniDUSlBBUC aDOUl ia? iuouliih.u ncenery along the route, going and coming, but when we asked bei about the beaus Rbe bud captivated, she declined to be lntervelwed on that subject, but told us that she passed through several states on her travels, namely: Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Tejoessee, Arkansas, Missouri, and took In a small part ofludlan Territory. She went by Atlanta, Birmingham, and Memphis. On her return she passed by 8prlngtleld, Memphis, and Chattonnooga. At Chattonnooga she saw Lookout Mountalulu all Its glory, bnt sbe did Dot see the National Cemetery and iheNatloual Park, where the battle of Cbickamauga was (ought. She was delighted with the western people, but from all lhat we could learn, they did not alenlateber affections Irom the people of South Carolina, and especially not Irom her good friends In Abbeville. While sbe did not say so, we have no doubt I ha t aha all II hnMs fum tn her lovers in Ab bevllle. When interveiwed on this point, she suddenly became impressed witb tbe need to baste away to sbe express office. Make Sewerage Compnlnory. Newberry Kerald and News* Sewerage will not be wortb anything to this town unless tbe people use tbe system. A leading pbyslolan of this community tells us that tbe greatest menance to public health is a privy. Then we should do every thing possible and reasonable to get rid of this menance. Tbe olty council, tbe board of health and tbe commissioners should co operate In their effort* for tbe public weal. Tbe cost of sewrHge as charged by tbe plumbers here makes It almost prohibition. We do not say they charge too much for we do not know anything about tbe cost, but we want to fall upon some plan by which all persons within the reach of the sewrage can take advantage of it. The commissioners should arrange to make * sewerage connection at actual cost, and the board of health should make it compulsory, and let the town pay for it, and give tbe property owner a term of years to pay tbe money back so that it would not fall so heavily on the persona of limited means. This we understand is being done in some cities and white there will be more or less kicking when tbe people realize tbe Importance of this sanitary measure they win accept u ns Ibe best solution and a sensible solutlou. Sewerage will never be worth anything to tbe health of this town bo long as It 1b not used and the menanoes to public health are permitted to remain, and some of them rlgnt by the aide of the street. Taken with Cramp*, Wm.Klrmae, a member of the bridge gang working near Littleport was taken suddenly 111 Thursday night with cramps and a kind ol cholera. His case was so severe that he had to have the members of the crew whU upon him and Mr. Gilford was called and consulted. He told him be bad a medicine In tbe form of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy thai be thought would help blm out and accordingly several doses were administered with tbe result that tbe fellow was able to be around next day.

On last Sunday morning an unuRnally large congregation composed of the different denominations of tbe city assembled in the Methodist Church. Rev. P. B. Wells pastor, elected for ills subject, - The Sin of Worldltness" 1st John 2-15, "Love not the world, neither ti?e things that are in tbe world. -It any man love the world, tbe love of tbe Fath or ib uut iu uiui. Among numerous worldly sins be mentioned "Modem dancing'; and "card playing" an most prominent, and Irom a biblical standpoint proved very clearly why a church member sbould not engage In such worldly amusements. He bandied these subjects, "dancing" and "card playing" without mincing of words, bat, earnestly, plainly and prhotlcally, doing what be conceived to he nl8 doty, and If tbe attentive congregation Is not profited It is surely no fault of bis. Pack I tie for Market. Growing early fruits and vegetables for distant markets is a Jong since demonstrated Huccess in the South. But after the growing comes the marketing. That is of vital importance, and experience has taught wide-awake growers to place themselves in ?he position of the buyers, thus insuring full weight and the best condition for their shipments. The busiuesi is bound to grow, but it will grow the more rapidly and the more steadily just in so far as packages shall meet the exigencies in transportation and the goods reach the market in prime UUUUltlUU. When a business man lets up on advertising, bis business will let up on him. What appeals to the customer is to know that she will get the worth of her cash. The easiest way to sell good things is to have it known you have good things to sell. The way to save a dollar is what should be advertised to the ordinary customer. vv ' . ' * '* * 'MAY BE 6INGING FISHES. A Phenomenon of the Sea Which Is Interesting and mysterious. Here is an account of a phenomenon of the Paseagoula river in Mississippi, to which, although it is not generally known, the attention of naturalists lias been called on account of its mystery. At times very remarkable sounds art heard at the month of this river. Tht local fishermen say that it is "the spirits j singing under the water." It is a mur I mni-iiirr cnnnH. -whinh riseR pr.-irinalh ^"""6 n and then falls to a lower tone. The music ceases when the waters are dis turbed, and when thoy are quiet it be gins again. Several explanations have beon offeree as to the origin and cause of the mysto rious sounds of the Pascagoula. Th< most satisfactory theory is that th< sounds are produced by a species of fisl in 6omo unknown way. Professor G Brown Goode, who is an authority or fishes and fish life, thinks that the drum fish may causo the sounds in question. Instances of peculiar gounds beinj heard at sea and ascribed to fishes ar< not uncommon, as the following exam pies will show: In 1824, when Lieutenant White o the American navy was at tho mouth o: a river in Cambodia, he and his crev were surprised by unusual sounds. Hi described the noises as a mixturo of thi bass of an organ, the ringing of bells I z.l 1 ? 1 , fh. lilt) guitura.i uiicsvi a ..u? tones of an immense harp. The native said that the sounds wero produced by i school of a certain kind of fish. Dr. Buist, 1847, reported that a parti of people in a boat on the waters nea Bombay heard strange sounds, wbici the natives held to be caused by fish The well known English traveler, Sir J Emerson Tennent, heard similar sound from the lake of Batticaloa in Ceylon and Jiere again the natives claimed tha fishes made the sounds* .Several corre epondents of newspapers have reportei having heard sounds which were pro duced by fishes. One writer in the Lon don Field, 1867, avers that in the har bor at Greytown, Nicaragua, he wa haunted at night by these mysteriou sounds. Another in the same paper tell of musical sounds which he heard in th i 'M.I xavoy river, luaiumjca ui iuw recent date might be mentionod. From all the accounts given we ma; draw some interesting conclusions Thns it seems that the sounds are al most always heard on shipboard, thoug] Charles Kingsley once heard them a Trinidad from the shore; that they ar usually heard in tropical regions; tha they are more often heard at night thai at any other time; that they are com monly heard at the mouth of livers, a at the mouth of the Paseagoula, an* that they have been reported from fa distant places in America, Europe an< Asia.?Our Animal Friends. Praises the Bicycle. It seems to be coming?scientific ap proval?in all directions. Dr. Cham poniere, member of the Academy o Medicine, has made observations o: Frenchwomen who have used the wheel and he finds they are better performer than men, learning more easily am with Ices purposeless expenditure o force. He finds a marked increase in th amount of muscle developed all over tb trunk of the body, especially about th torso. The lung capacity is increased full, healthy action of the heart is re stored and the deposition of fat is avoid ed. The doctor asserts that he can detec infallibly the woman who uses th wheel from her sisters when they oros the streets. One proceeds with self con fidence and ease when the other dbdge and invites disaster. He then examine the mental discipline afforded by the bi cycle, and thence deduces his most strik ing conclusions. He finds that the worn an's powers of attention and observatioj are awakened in an extraordinary de gree, or rather that these powers, wit! which all human beings are endowed a birth, are saved from atrophy, which h both sexes is one of tha most markei defects produced by civilization. Tb wheelwomen move with something o the freedom and dignity observed i 60me of the higher uncivilized raceE The doctor disclaims any intention t theorize, bnt at the close of his articl permits himself to dream of a nen Frenchwoman as the produot of the bi cycle. Pigeon Roosts Fifty Tears Ago. Pigeon Roost, Scott county, Ind., re ceived its name from its being the night It? nf the nasseneer or will V * v"v*u- ; w ' ?? ? w pigeon. Those pigeons usually selecte some heavily wooded or elevated locali ty for their roosting, bordering on thei feeding grounds, which might be sever al hundred miles in extent. The pigeon usually commenced to arrive before sur set and continued in increasing num bers until after midnight. At daybrea! the birds would begin to leave the roosl and on swift wing depart for their feed ing grounds, miles away, returning a night, as stated. It may safely be sai that these birds ranged the forests c Indiana from the Wabash to the Ohio and extending far into Kentucky. S large were their roosts that they becam localities of great interest.

Great care must uc wh-u uui > ! to overtax the digestive organs." Itei 'lapses are often car. sod by too much in dulgcncc of the patient's appetite at ' this stage. One must advance slowly J ? 'and with great ea:e. A broiled bird or j a piece of rare beefsteak or a chop may ' be given when the patient is In a sufficiently advanced stage of recovery. I Oysters are almost always allowed and are both palatable and easily digested 5! if perfectly fresh and not too much ''cooked. When they are overcooked, '[the albumen becomes hardened, very [tough and difficult to digest. Cook ' | them only until the gills begin to curl. " Cream soups are valuable, as they are nourishing and easily digested, but f lin fv.Hod too Ion!?. ' J LliUJ DUUU1U C w_ 31 A great deal of attention should be " j paid to the serving of food for a sick person. The faint appetite of illness J can best be coaxed by the daintiness of the food. Serve the food on a tray with a fresh, white cover and be careful not 3 to put so much on the tray as to crowd 9 It Better to serve too little and let the ' patient ask for more than to put so 3 much on at one time that the sick one 3 is Immediately discouraged. A flower 1 or a little sprig of green laid' upon the white tray cloth is often an incentive 7 to the indifferent appetite, but do not r attempt a vase of flowers uuless it be a 3 very small and dainty one. Have the ' tray set with the prettiest china and ' glass obtainable, without too much color, so us to weary the eye. If the china ? Is all of a single pale tint, the effect will be very dainty and pleasing to the ^ eye of the patient. It must also be it 1. tllO fit 7.P PUlIUi L'UUHgu LU auumuivu^v ] of the tray. Never let the tray or remains of food served stand In the slckroom after the patient has been fed. s Let all hot foods be served Iramoj dlately after they are prepared, and it 0 seems superfluous to mention that all hot dishes must be hot and all cold dishes equally cold. However, this is _ not always done. Sometimes both the cold and hot dishes are allowed to stand until they reach the same temjj porn t ure. ? There are a great many simple, dain0 ty desserts which may be served to the ^ invalids, especially those made with 3 eggs and gelatin. Ice cream is often _ given and Is very nutritious and can be s digested by some very ill patients, and j It is almost always relished. r rj Bott to Whiten Ivory. Ivory may be whitened by washing well with soap and water and allowing it to dry In the sun. This process - must be repeated for several days.
