Dear Advertiser lleaders:
Last week While inl Latiretus I had
a few Iniinlites pleasant chat with One
of her leading bankhers. ald not fate
nlade him. a keeper of shekels he
ighlit have bein a Man of letters for
he has a decided literery bent. Ile
likes a good book and is very gener
oils and always loanis to his friends.
I am lis, d or in that r 'spect. for lie
las shared several Wortli-whi le books
with iei. In our ehat, I gathere he had
lost a hook of poems, and as I especial
Y iit to read it this letter, dear
reader. ean he looked upon Something
as a tracer. so if any of you have a
hook called, "Ithyies From Tennes
se", or "I-IIoes 1-'rom Teniessee"
it strikets it, thongh. that neither of
thies' are itie correct title. I lowever,
this mu11s; 1 deo know to be so: it is
sometihin from Teiiiessee!
I :ae a great foiniless for poetry
