It ia the only oaso.of tho kind on record. Tho hasty action is rb? ?rotted by friends of both, and wo havo no doubt is regretted by tho Senators themselves.

Ile said ho only wnutcd Tillman nlonn in thia ruco, and Ho would give the people a clear, decent, high toned campaign, or if Tillman prcforrcd ho could havo all tho mud-sling ing ho wanted.

ODO far m or lins just asked mo to write something this woek to chcor him up. Tho host remo* <ly that I cnn give to meet tho situa tion right now .U "early to bed and carly to rsso." Tho first thiug on ari sing is to get hold of a goose ueokhoo by tho small ond aud keep a hold ou it until tho dinner bells rings, aud right after dinuor tako a double dose. If that doesn't bavo tho desired effect repeat tho dose next morning, and koop on repenting until that tired feeling and that green complexion io tho cotton patch has gouo. This is what tho medical fraternity calls ho roio treatment, But this is the only Hahn in Gilead that t kuow of. I know from experience that it is pow erful bad medicino. I soo W. J. Covington hore with n box of crawfish. Ho says ho caught thom in a neighbor's cotton patoh on a high ridge. That sounds like sumo* body's name is ' mud " Ono follow told me that he was coming up the hill at the Ked Bluff mills in a cart the other day aud had bis cart gato ofl' and it rained his cart body full of water before ho could get to the top of tho hill. I didn't toll him ? believed this, but our Judge says it was so because he was with him and 8ftw4t._" -. Several of our people have gone to 'Memphis. Among the nu.ober Mr. A. L. Calhoun Sr., Miss Tennessee Cal houn goes ns sponsor, Miss Pearl ladens to seo tho eights. I am certain that our Tennessee people will think that wo bavo a very pretty representation. If they don't tho:o iii some youug meu hore who does. Already they aro say ing when will tho reunion bo over. I don't know why they do this but they do. R.iQ, Stone and P. H. Ivey left for Memphis this a. rn, These reunions aro a grand thiug, especially at din nor tiue. I was invited to one the other day. Mrs. W. G. Stantou had a reunion of her children and graud children. I got an invitation and you bet I went. I eat chiokon that was baked, and chiokon that was not bak ed; Ham aud other good things that I often dream about but seldom ever soo. I wieh another one of her boys would come homo and celebrate. Ii Sheriff Green and Judge McLaurin could luve been there ray cup_ would have run over with envy. I believe iu "the world do more theory." I have just been told that the Mc? Coll Hardware Co., has bought out our homo folks in the Hardware husinoss and will opeu up a brauch house here. Who blames tho McColl people from wantiiili to como to a livo towu to do business? Every body will give thora a cordial welcome and a fare share of tho trade. Mr, J. Howard Bennett has sold two car loads of mowers and self Bind" ing Reapers and is expecting two more cara to night. Our Judge says they aro the thing to get the best of a kick? ing mule with. He says ho had a mule once that would kick so high he would look botweou his front logs and wink his oyo at you while Ina hind feet and he can sell a mower or Reaper as quick as auybody everything being tqual. That samo young man from Wiu sjon is here again. I guess he is after a fall hat this ttino, or a photograph one. I heard a young chap say ho would take his picturo on a brick but if he didut go north right soon. Our town sympathises with Mr. and Mrs. Will Carter in the loss of their little babe. It was buried at Hebron on Friday, The sun is shining brightly this a. m., the farmers aro putting on new lite; everything will como out right if wo will on y wait and trust iu all wise providence. There will bo a good crop made. Cotton will bring a good price; the U. S. Senate will meet ns iisir.d; Christmas will come again; there will be just as much mean corn liquor bought; Just aa many tin horses and horus sold; Just as many liulo stockings with a hole in the heel hung up as usual and they will all be filled too. Some of the good womeu are keeping tho little turkeys out of tho rain and wo cnn all have our usual old tough goblor for dinner just as we always have. Lot every body quit grumbling and make bay while the suu shines, and catch crawfish if "thoy 'can. I think I will got up a shooting match for my garden at ton cents a shot and throw in the grass. Any ono who wants a chanco let me know at once or I will plow it up and set it out in "taters.'' May 28. 1901. J. P. McG. Trustees Eleotion.

Ill-Temper JBoauty's Foe. .V',??Rrt; loraponsT.^ vVorry \yiU4mc0 more wrinkles jil ono hight than hot and coid bathing and message and complexion brushes and cream ?nd lotions can wash out in a year's faithful application, says the Wo mon's Home Companion. Physi clans assort that an immenso a mount of norvo force is expended in o rory fit of bad temper ; that when ono little part of tho ner vous sys to m goes wrong tho faco first records it. Tho eyes first begin losing tho lustro of youth ; muscles . become flabby, tho skin refuses to contract accordingly and the result is wrinkles, femininity's fiercest and most insidious Ibo. There is no use attempting to reason wtth a woman about tho evil effects of ill-temper while she is in an ugly mood. She knows pertectly well that it in bad form ; that it savors of tho coarro under bred ; that it is weak and belittling and immoral, and that it hnr'.s her cause to loso hor temper. But she does not stop at just that timo to think about it, and to remind hor of tho fact only adds fuel to the fiamos. But when sho is cool and sorone and at poaco with all tho world, if you can conyinco her that each fit of temper adds a yoar to her ago by weakening her mental force and by tracing orowtracks about hor eyes and telltale lines around her mouth, she will probably think twice boforo again forgetting her self. For no matter what sho as sorts to the contrary, woman prizes youth and beauty ahovo ovory oth-^ er gift tho gods hold it in thoir power to bestow upon mortals. Tho Duty of Cheerfulness. Somo persons are born with a cheerful disposition, thoir outlook is always sunny. Others aro mor bid by inheritance. Thoir fathers and mothers wero melancholy and in thoir early homes thoro was too muoh depression, so that thoy havo a habit of gloom. If those pooplo would recognize that it is a sin to bo sad, and to make tho family so, and that it is a duty to bo cheerful thoy would find thoir spirits rising under tho bravo effort. Only groat sorrow can excuso countenances always grave, and oven sorrow need not bo mororo and grim. "A morry hoart dooth good like a medicino."-Margarot gangster in Christian Herald.
