Thursday, as he was not use Lo “town

Leaving the business portion of the
city and down Main street, due North,
we have about one and a half miles, be
fore reaching the •‘genuine country.”
Passing several pretty homes, seated
in queenly majesty upon tho brow of
miniature mountains, approached by cir
cular terraces, and shaded with white
no, whose feathery branches sway with
cry mountain zephyr, we find our-
I selves nearing “Oakland Inn.”
Leaving the “Ii dustrial School,’’ and
several pretty cottages, we drive up a
J gentle incline to the “Inn.”
I This is a now hotel, but bears upon its
I nee the aristocracy of an old landmark.
In fact,
The newness is the neatness,
I Not a mark of incompleteness,
J And tho freshness bears a beauty,
That is delicate and pietty.
The “Inn” is decidedly English, as it
name designates.
Its ruddy coloring is a pretty contrast
to the green grass surrounding it.
A graceful portico (that triumph of ar
chitectural art,) with a long arm em
braces one hall the building. Miniature
turrets and airy verandahs, surprise the
eye on all sides. This unique hotel is
exqu.sitely furnished.
Soft, rich carpets, easily draped cur
tains, slender tables and cozy chairs.give
to the three parlors, an air of elegant
homelike ness, that you cannot always
tablishment.
i>f Asheville is to be
had from the porch, and in this, as in
every inclusive view of the city, “Bat
tery Park” stands above the surrounding
country.
But the crowning feature of the “Inn”
is the observatory, a gem of dainty lux
ury.
A circular carpet with wicker furni
ture, bound with gay ribbons, soft mus
lin curtains, knotted with bows of cor
responding brightness—a curling of pale-
tint-make up this charming little sky-
parlor. One has the feeling of being ex
ceedingly far out of the reach of the or
dinary every-day wcrld.
Just such a spot with light agleam,
Where poets write,and lovers dream.
It was with the utmost reluctance that
I left this pleasant retreat.
Down the soft velvet covered stairs. !
we slowly left the “Inn.”
This hotel reminds one in its oddly
beautiful architecture of the Magnolia
hotel in St. Augustine.
A gradual slope brings you to “Beth
any,” the home of Mr. Garrett Jr., and
there are “the green hills far away, with
out a city wall.”
A little further on, wo pass Springfield,
e home of the g« nial proprietor of the
“Inn,” and the home where Christian
Held was inspired to wriie her be autiful
“Land of the Sky”—a cool, delightful
place, where indeed perpetual spnup
seems to linger, on the velvet lawns, and
heavily fruited trees.
But we must not stop to admire, even
here, for as in literature, so in the views
around Asheville.

i decided to call
ourselves the “big fire.” This important
point settled we began our rawblings.
And well have we been repaid for our
pains! It will be impossible for me to
put on paper half the delight we experi
enced, and equally impossible to give
any idea of the fine views that graced
our bewildered vision. We have seen
the sun rise from seven high points on
the outskirts of the ci:r, and have ex
plored as many more heights under the
bewitching influence of some of our
glorious summer moons.
We had many discussions as to which
were the finest views, and some we could
never agree upon. One however, there
was a unanimous opinion about. We
had reined in our hor.-es on the high
ridge just this side of Dr. McClesky’s
place. This is one of ths highest points
in Athens. The road (or street as it is)
runs for half a mile or more upon a
beautiful ridge, sloping m all directions.
The city of Alliens, viewed from this
point looks like an immense horse-shoe.
You see, away off in the west, the tow
er of the Lucy Cobb chapel. It looks
like a great bell suspended in mid air, as
the rest of tho building is concealed by
clustering trees. The sun was seiting in
a perfect tiood of glory, and it threw
long slanting rays out over the panorama
like city. It touched the windows of
the buildings on Broad street, and then
looked as if Cleveland was elected and
and the city was illuminated! Beautiful?
We all agreed we had never seen any £ in both
thing more beautiful in our lives. Ad Lev*
ded to this was a delicious little breeze,
that blew directly off the crisp, fresh
growing corn, without the suspicion of a
pig-pen, and was altogether healthful
and invigorating.

as extremely hazardous by those unfam

Even ther they got what they rali tht*

of asphyxia, and I can assure you it is a
very serious ailment. Some time ago
on© of the caisson men working on the

ho came out, and it proved to be one of
the worst attacks seen by tho men ac
customed to witnessing such sights in a
long time. When he reached the ground
he fell, with the blood streaming from
his nose, ears and mouth, and was well
nigh dead when the physicians rt ached

but had no further desire to go “mud

Hunnicutt Rheumatic Cure Co.:
Dear Sirs—It gives me pleasure to ex
press niy high appreciation of “Hunni-
cuti’s Rheumatic Cure,” and to inform
you of the remarkable cure which l have
experienced from its use. I suffered for
Iti years with rheumatism in its most
obstinate and most distressing form. 1
used all the most approved remedies
known to the medical profession, and
consulted some of the most eminent
physicians not only in this country, but
in Europe, without obtaining only tempo
rary relief. Some attacks would confine
me to mv^eft-pnd Aom for six months.
During,one of these attacks, while pros
trated and despondent, almost without
hope of recovery, Mr. Hunnicutt called
to see me, and made known his formula,
and gave his experience in regard to the
many wonderful cures made by his
“Cure.*, I was pleased with his combi
nation and candid recommendation, and
at once began the use of bis Cure.
24 hours 1 was the happiest man in the
world, free from pain, and could sleep-
next day was able to walk about my
bouse. ' Language is as inefficient to de
scribe the happy effect of the u Cure” as
it is to convey an adequate idea of the
intensity of my sufferings before the use
of M Hunnicutt’s Cure.” Sufficient to say^
that the use of two bottles effected a
complete cure of of my case after suf
fering for sixteen years, ana everything
else had failed to eradicate the disease
from my system. Yes, I can confidently
recommend “Hunnicutt’s Rheumatic
Cure,” a God send to suffering humani-
ty.
Accept my best wishes for your suc
cess in the noble work of curing those
who suffer with tha terrible pangs of
