“The old folks are raisin mighty pe*
tfurlous children nowadays,” laid Aunt
Nancy Newton in a general family talk
with me oncst
upon a time.
And the longer
I live, and the
more I think
about it, the
plainer I can see
wherein the old
lady spoke a
tremendius big
gob of truth.
Everybody i s
more or less cu
rious to some extent. It must be a
family disease with the human race,
but some people have it a whole lot
worse and give up to it a sight more
than others.
Re member I lie Stribblin Place.
If it ever comes to pass that you
roought run down into the Rocky Creek
Settlement—and then if you want to
find out everything about everybody in
all the regions around, go over on the
Jackson Trail road and put up and spend
the night with old man Asey StribbNn.
What little old man Asev don’t know in
regards to the general history of the
country and the people must of been
tore out of the books forty years ago.
And if you aint too tired to stay up late
and listen the old man will toll you all
he knows before you go to bed. From
geuerul appear men Is the old folks pul
in to raisin some “mighty pecurious
Children” about the time old man Asey
was born, and sometimes ho talks a
whole passle jest simply because he has
got somethin to talk with.
But if you want to git all the news
don’t forget to sp -nd a night at the
Stribblin place. Old man Asey can
take mo up ono side and down the other
and tell you a blame sight more about
Bay family records and mygonoral repu
tation than you over could find out from
me. He is more than probable to tell
you about some things concernin which
t don’t want everybody to know. If it
Ao happens that I have ever got myself
mixed up in any scandulations and
flirtationments in the settlement old
man As y can give you all the facts,
with a few extry touches and fancy
trimmina for good measure. He isjji-f^
Aral headquarters for every khigg-^JTthat
line. Ho can tell .yoy^-ttfanaL’s heel
*'5o» bmctt tStiE^ylhave got, or how
much I owe—when I got it, and where I
got it, and who holds the waverly notes
agin me. Ho can tell you how many
horses and cows a*d hogs and pigs and
chickens and children we have got in
the Sanders family. Sometimes I won
der in my soul where tb® old man gits
all his facts. So far as mo and him's
concerned I would seo him sick abed
with a fever and ten miles from water
before I would tell him anything. But
if there is any news in the settlement—
pirticlar if it is right fresh and ruther
dirty—old man Asey can most in gen
erally always manage so as to pick it
up “comin and a-gwine.”
Late along last summer I got rich and
reckless and went up into Tennessee
and bought me a good saddle horse.
Andy Lucas went with me and rid the
horse back hour ■ through the country.
Tb* general facts in the case had already
leaked out in the settlement before wo
landed the new horse at home. Bright
and early the next mornin old man Asey
Come bilin over after the nows. Bless
gracious, he was at the front gate before
I got through breakfast. He cotnc over
in such a tremendius hurry and Hurry
till, by gatlins, he was sweat in like a
free nigger on election day. And ho re
mained over and hung around till way
fn the shank of the ovenin tryin his
level blamdest to find out what I had
give for my saddle horse. He saw me,
end he aaw the horse, but that was all
eo far as me and him's concerned. But
get at the same time, if you waat to
know where I got that horse, and who
X got him from, and what I paid for him
to a dollar and a cent, don't forget to
put up and spend the night with old
man Asey Stribblin. I have never tdld
him—1 have never even told Andy Lu-
cas—but I’ll bet the horse right now
egia the sorriest steer calf in the set
tlement that old man Asey can tell you
ell about it. He has got the facts in
the case before now If he had to wrlto
on back to Murray county, Tennessee,
and ask the man which I bought the
home from.
Tliot* Lily- M bite Haadi.
Xt la e blessed good thing, I reckon,
that It takes a heap of various and sun-
4ry different sorts of people to make up
the world. As for me, I love these good,
plain American people around Rocky
i^reek. They are always honest enough
end brave enough to be natural and
true. They are my fellow-citizens, my
neighbors and my friends. We have all
come down together from the aristoc
racy Of honest hearts and hard
knuckles. But now in regards to the r
business—they must tend to that for
themselves. I haven't got the turn nor
the time to look after it for them. Life
is too short and time is too skeerce, and
I am too cverlastin busy. It takes all
my time to keep up tho corners and
make the edges cut at home. And I have
to stay out Inte and git up soon in
orderment to do that. I hope old man
Asey Stribblin is out of debt and ahead
of the hounds, with meat in the smoko
bouse, and moil in tho barrel, and
money in b s fl inks. Hut 1 don’t know
A blame thing about lu It Is non® of
my businosB. And I haven't got tb®
time to go and find out. It is a thou
sand wonders to me that ho has got a
shelter to sleep under. If I spent ss
much time runnin about and “jest pil*
forln around" tendin to other peoples’
business for them as he does my home
would now ‘ho over tho bills and far
away In tho Poor House.
Now you maybe mought think that I
am ono of them pecurious children my-
sely, but if old man Asey will only
tend to his own business right and
proper I can manage my own without
any help from him. I haven't got so
very much, but it is all mine. I want
horned into it, and I didn't marry it,
and I didn’t steal it. By gracious, I
tpado it—made it with my own mutton
head and my own lily-white hands.
SUICIDE.
8am Jones’ View of This Com
mon Route to the Hereafter.
One More “Pecurious Child.”
Old Mises Nettleton (Aunt Pliny, as
everybody calls her), which lives over
on Huckleberry Ridge, is ono more of
them pecurious children. She is the
onlyest ono like her on tlie broad bosom
of tho earth, I reckon. Sho is way past
seventy years old, but sho never saw
the moon in day time till one day last
week. It was somethin new and mar-
vclsome to Aunt Pliny. She always
thought that the sun was made for day
and the moon for night, and then to soo
the moon in broad, open day time was
quite altogether too many for her. Sho
thought the world was comin to an end
right away immediately, if not sooner.
She was out in tho garden when sho
saw the marvelsome sight, and from
there she flow into the house and went
to pray in to beat six hits.
The Last Pull at Poki-
Old man Poke Nettleton, which he
was the husband of Aunt Pliny, you
understand, was likewise also ono of
them “pecurious children.” l!o was a
right tolerable good man in the com
mon way, hut tough enough for wedge
woo l, and green—by gracious be was
so green till you could rake it off with
a shuck. And then old man Poke was
a terrible hard drinker till ho went
down under the water. You see. Aunt
Pliny is a Baptist from High Log all
tho way, whilst old man Poke calb d
himself a debt-payin dram-drinkin
Methodist.
“As to me, I was horned and brung
up in a Baptist family, Rufus,” said
Aunt Pliny to mo ono Saturday evenin
when old man Poke had went homo as
mellow as a M .ypop. “I was fed and
raised on Baptist ui..;c, and Baptist po
tatoes, and Baptist bread and Baptist
bacon, and, thank * cod ness I’m a Bap
tist all the way. And if it evyr 'comes
to pass that I can pyB-JVke into a notion
to jine the BajiU'if'Church and go down
under the, water he will he a new and
d^iif^nt man. He is a member ®f tho
Methodist Church now, and lie has been
sprinkled, hut it . will take somethin
more Uian a little sprinkle to wash
away tht> sins of Pok-* Nettleton. That
mongbt maybe sorter do for women and
children, but if Poke don’t go down
heels and head under tho water he is a
lost and mint man.”
Well, naturally of course in t ie run
of time Aunt Pliny—woman like—
brought old man Poke around to her
wav c*f thinkin, and the very next Sun
day ho went over with her into tho
Baptist Church. And then on the fol
lowing Tuesday they had a baptizin at
the big furd over on Murder Creek, and
old man Poke went down unler tho
water. It so come to pass that 1 mot
tho crowd along tho road on their re
turn back from tho creek, and soon as
Aunt Pliny saw me sho opened up and
let in:
“Ho is a clean man now, Rufus—
thank tho Lord Poke Nettleton is a
clean man. lie has went down under
tho water, and his sins aro washed away.
White as snow, Rufus, whito as snow.
You can tell tho sheriff and tho police
they have put their hands on Poke Not-
tleton for tho last time. No more
cussin and no more comin up drunk at
our bouse. He is on the rock now,
Rufus—safe on tho rock which fadeth
not away.”
To bo certainly 1 was in hopes that
Aunt Pliny was right, hu^ I had some
serious doubts in tho case. I didn't dis
pute her word in regards to old man
Poke bein safe on tho rock and whit® as
snow, though I didn’t know how long
he would stay clean and keep bis feet
under him. But from that Tuesday
evenin, when he went down undor the
waters of Murder Creek, to his dyin
day the old man never cussed an oath
nor took a drop of sperits. I don’t know
for certain whether it was the water or
Aunt Pliny or the good Lord—or all
three put together—but at any rates,
when tho last final shower come, and
old man Poke Nettleton had to take out
and go in he was “safe on the rock and
white as snow.” Rcfes Sanders.

Primarily It Is a Crime, and in
Next Place It Is Cowardly—
Advice to Wonld-Ue
Suicides.
COPTBIGHT. 1895
Much has been written and said upon
this subject in the last few years. The
truth Is, it is hard to keep the tongue
and pen off of a subject so frightful
and so horrible, when suicides have
multiplied so fast. The views upon this
subject as to tho causes and conse
quences of suicide are about as multi
form and varied as the character of the
ones who perpetrate this awful crime.
I was conducting evangelistic meet
ings in a city a few days ago, and a
young lad}’ of pleasant surroundings
and happy home walked out in the gar
den late in the afternoon, put a pistol
to her temple and they found her dead.
Suicide is the last retreat of poor hu
manity fleeing from something. It is
the deed of a shirk. It is the retreat of
one who has decided not to fight man
fully the issues before him. Suicide
is a crime first, because it is murder.
To murder one’s self is murder. To
deliberately take your own life I can
didly believe is a crime for whieli there
Is no forgiveness here or hereafter. I
have frequently heard it said that no
one but insane persons commit suicide;
but I have frequently talked with per
sona who attempted suicide perhaps
more than once. They were perfectly
sane, and they said they did it delib
erately and that they had rather die
than meet the issues and endure longer
the ills they carried.
I have had more than one person to
say to me that they intended to commit
that deed. I asked them why, and they
told me that their ills were greater
than they could bear. My uniform re
ply to them has been: “Well, do the
deed, and you won’t be in hell more
than half a minute till you would give
a thousand worlds to be back again.
There you will say: ‘Oh, God! if I could
get back to earth again I’d bear the ills
that I endured there a million years,
and count it a privilege to do so!”’
That insane persons commit the deed
1 do not doubt; but it is a cowardly, in
fernal act. Any person who has sense
enough to swallow laudanum or load
aud shoot a pistol into his brains has
sense enough not to do*it. I came in at
the front door of the aryna of life, and
l prgppsyto go out at the front door.
' And like Bill Arp said some years ago:
“If my friends should find me dead un
der suspicious circumstances, they can
go to hunting the fellow that done it,
for I am dead sure I won’t be the man
that done it.” We had better bear the
ills we know of than to risk the ills we
know not of beyond the grave and in
the great beyond.
Young girls commit the deed; young
boys, wives, husbands, fathers, moth
ers commit suicide and thereby entail
woe and misery and suffering upon the
loved ones who have suffered for them
and sacrificed for them more tlrnn
tongue could tell.
Suicide is not only a crime, but it is
the last retreat of selfishness. And
after all hell itself is nothing but self
ishness on lire. There is not one sui
cide in a thousand that cares for the
suffering that they entail upon others;
but a selfish desire and a false hope
lead to the deed. Suicide is not
only a crime, it is not only the most in
tensely selfish deed, but it is a deed
from which they can never recover. In
one short moment’s time they do a
deed that not simply haunts them to
the grave, but haunts them into the
beyond through all eternity. In the
dark ages it might have been honor
able to commit suicide, but in this day
of Gospel truth and light, in this day
when God’s arm of mercy can be seen
and His voice of mercy can be heard, to
deliberately seek the retreat of an old
stoic who never heard of God or never
cared for God and try to end your
troubles in the mosA selfish, criminal
way is neither the deed of a man nor
the act of a brave, chivalrous human
being. If the suicide could look upon
the saddened home, the grief-stricken
loved ones, he could but feel ashamed
in hell of the crime he had committed.
Tho highest manhood is the manhood
which protects and shields the loved
ones of home who have sacrificed for
them.
It is not only a crime to commit sui
cide, and the most intense selfishness
and intensest disregard of the feelings
of others who love you, hut it is a cow
ardly deed. I saw some time ago where
a fellow had started off to commit sui
cide. lie met a bull in the road mak
ing for him and he ran for dear life;
and plead as a reason Fiat he bad some
choice about the way he died. No
brave man, in nay honest judgment,
would be guilty of such a crime. Brav
ery is made of the stuff that meets the
conflicts of life and endures Its ills with
a face like flint, and fights its way till
the end shall come in a different way.
How to make others happy and how
to do good to others opens up the best
channels of life; and he who is busy
making others happy and doing good
to others, unless reason be dethroned,
cannot commit so selfish and dastardly
a crime as suicide. Sometimes an in
ordinate love of money drives a fellow
to a deed like this. He has set his
heart upon sordidness until when dis
aster comes to him he feels that all
that he lias loved has passed away and
that be desires to go with it. A miserly
mail who lays bis withered soul upon
the altar of Mammon and worships till
he wants to die, and if death dim‘1
come he goes out to meet it with a
loaded pistol or a dirk and hurries him-
telf away from the ill.; that other brave
nen count it manly to bear. Some
times a fool kills himself about some
jirl who has jilted him In love. I sup-
jose a fellow who was like Melchisc-
iek, who had neither father nor moth
er nor brothers and sisters nor relatives,
Might do a deed like that and call it
nanly. But wherever there is a
’a heart to bleed, or wife's heart
to suffer, or sister's eyes to weep, and
father’s voice to groan, it is unmanly
to do a deed like that. Sometimes a
fellow kills himself because he thinks
he is a failure. Because others think
he is a failure he does the deed that
demonstrates the truth of what they
thought. Sometimes a fellow com
mits suicide because of bodily pain.
Somotimcs a fellow commits suicide be
cause he can’t sleep at night or eat in
the daytime. Sometimes a fc!low com
mits suicide because his daddy did, or
his neighbor did. Sometimes a fellow
commits suicide because lu* feels that
is all that he can do. He played out-
frazzled out at everything else.
But no matter what the cause,
there can be no justification. And
if Mr. Ingcrsoll thinks that suicide
is a good way out let him commit
the deed he thinks is no harm for others
to do and try to get a passport back
and tell us whether lie thinks it pays
or not, after he sees where suicide
lands a fellow. But if reason be de
throned. and a man is not mentally re
sponsible, and is not responsible for his
irresponsibilities, then there might be
excuse or palliation for a deed like this.
But let us discourage this cowardly,
selfish crime and let men die martyrs
to the right, but let them die natural
deaths. A man ought to have as little
to do with his going out of tins world
as he had to do with his coming into
this world. Keep busy. Keep cheer
ful. Be contented. Go to bed and go
to sleep. Go to the table and e it, but
not too much. Put your heart in your
work. Love what you do better than
you love what anybody else does. Be
satisfied with your job, contented with
your lot, and hopeful for the future;
and then by faith in God you will rot
go craze here. You will unt go crazy
enough to commit suicide on the one
•hand, or find the ills of life t<>.> burden
some to bear upon the other.

SWEDEN’S ROYAL PA _ACn.
Soim* of 1 he SJrlkina 1'iutur s of Kina
Hffi.r.r ; l .-.vorU*' itos.d. urf*.
Although the reigning aniily of
Sweden is far from rich, oving lo the
late king having bequeathe i ^ very ves
tige of property that he ci aid dispose
of to his only daughter, .ov crown
princess of Denmark, yet \. ere a; ■* few
more magnificent abodes in the old
world, says the C’nicago Tribune. It
is the favu residence of the t sown
prince dui..rg the summer, and may
bq sukl to have been erected absolutely
regardless of cost, that is to say, in its
present form, for the oldest part of the
tastle dates back to the year 1100, when,
according to the Scandinavian sages,
it was the stronghold and home of the
famous King Sigurd.
One of the leritiTres is tin* winter gar
den. the glass root of which rests on
sixteen marble columns, each of which
cost over forty thou.and dollars. It
is situated on the very edge of the cliff
overlooking the sea, while from the
land side the view stretches ow r hill
and forest for many a long mile. One
somewhat amusing feature in connec
tion with this palace is the so-called
Isle of Elba that lies within a stone’.,
throw of the palace, and which owes
its name to the fact that when in i'- Jft
the first Napoleon was deported to Klim
the Princess Sophie* Albertine, w ho re
garded him in the light of a bugbear,
caused ono of the largest eagles to Ik*
moved from the aviary of the castle
and to be conveyed to this little island,
where it was shut up in a cage as a
kind of memorial to tlie fallen emperor.
By a strange coincidence whieli cannot
be explained the eagle managed to es
cape on the very day that the first
Napoleon sailed from Elba on that last
journey which ended in Waterloo and
St. Helena.
CHINESE LAUNDRY TICKETS.
A Queer System of Markins; ISun<llcg of
Warhing.
The Chinese washermen have a sys
tem of ticketing a bundle of soiled
clothes based on the many gods and
goddesses of the laundry. Though it
is complicated, the laundrymau seldom
delivers a bundle of washed clothes to
the wrong jierson.
Furthermore, if the ticket is lost the
chances are that you will not get your
linen unless you are a particular friend
of the proprietor. Instances are on
record w here an American has gone to
court to force the Chinese to yield up
the washing, hut the judge was not
convinced that the case of the white
man was a good one.
The Chinese laundryman ut the be
ginning of each week makes out a batch
of cheeks, in duplicate, to 1m* used as
wash tickets. He selects the name of
some god or goddess, or of some object
as the sun, the moon, or the stars. To
this name he prefixes a number, as
“Moon, No. 1,” “Moon, No. 2,"and soon.
In the space betw een the tw o legends
—for the signs are repeated twice—he
has his own name, as, for instance,
“Wah Lee."
When a customei takes a bundle of
washing to the laundry, the Chinese,
first tearing a ticket in two in ragged
fashion, puts one-half on the packet
for reference; the other half be gives
as a receipt to the person who has
brought the package of laundry.
It must be presented when the laun
dry is demanded, and no fears need be
entertained that the package of clean
clothes will not be forthcoming, for
they are scrupulously exact in these
matters.
Give the Boy® a Day Off.
Tiif. Ledger never advocates any
thing without giving it consideration.
Therefore the closing of all business
on Thanksgiving day has received
consideration. It is proper to do so
every year, but this year tho mer
chants should gladly doso. Business
lias been exceptionally good ; the sea
son lias been glorious; fanners have
received good prices for their produce
and merchants have reaped a harvest
Wo should with one accord close our
places of business on this day and
with reverend hearts and happy
souls give thanks to Him who has
made such things possible. It will
will strengthen us anew for the bat
tle of another year. It will cheer
our souls, make us think more of
each other and employee and em
ployer will be drawn closer together
by it. So let everybody close and let
everybody spend the day as it be
comes a broad, liberal Christian peo
ple to spend it.
The Ledger will publish a list of
those who will close on Thanksgiving
Day. .

of Chamberlain’s Pain Balm, and
asked that she give it a thorough

right, the pain had left her within
two hours, and that the bottle of
Pain Balm was worth |."i if it could
not be had for less. For sale at 50
cents per bottle by W. B. DuPre.
