A NICE FAMILY.
WRat M. Quad Tumbled On in Ten
nessee.
Detroit Free Press.
Just on the divide of a Tennessee
mountain the hind wheels of the buck-
board dropped into a rut, the axle
broke with a smash, and, after spend
ing ten minutes in solemn thought,
the driver said:
“Well, I’ll have to get the consarned
thing down to Tompkinsville for re
pairs, and you’d better stay all night
at yon cabin.”
“Perhaps they can’t accommodate
me.”
“There’s no perhaps about it. Folks
as lias got a house are bound to keep
folks as has broke down.”
L went over to the cabin, which was
a rude log structure, and the only one
within four miles. The woman saw
me coming, and stood in the door.
Her husband saw me coming and sat
down on a log. The live or six chil
dren saw me coming, and arranged
themselves along the opening in the
brush fence which answered for a gate.
As I came up 1 approached the man
and explained the nature of the acci
dent, and asked to stay all night.
“Stranger, if it depended on me, I’d
say yes,” he replied, as he crossed his
legs and tried to put on an injured
iook. “But it don’t depend on me. 1
don’t amount to shucks around yere no
mo’.”
“Now, Zekiel, what d’ye talk like
that fur?” demanded the barefooted
wife as she came down to the log.
“Who’s said you wasn’t boss? Who’s
tried to take the lead -over you ?”
“You hev, an’ right afore the. chil
dren; ypu said I wasn’t fitten to drive
hogs !”
“Shoo, Zekiel ! you begun it by say-
in’ I was extravagant.”
“()h ! yes, I begun it! I alius begin
everything! Nobody else never begins
nut-bin’, and nobody else is never to
blame !”
“But this ’ere stranger wants to stay
all night. It’s coining night, and we
can’t say no.”
“Well, I ealkerlate he kin stay. A
month ago I could hev taken him by
the hand and told him to make my
house his home, but now I hain’t got
no more right around yere. I’m only a
cypher now.”
The wife took my satchel into the
cabin, and I sat down on the log with
Zeke and offered him a cigar. At the
same time the seven children came and
stood in a row before us, and called out
as in one voice:
“The feller has dun gin pap a cigar!”
“Yes, children,” said the old man, as
he scratched a match on his starboard
quarter and lit the weed, “your pap
lias got a cigar. It’s the fust cheerin’
thing that has come to him fur twenty-
one years, and it’s proof that he isn’t
quite forgotten by all the world. What
are ye standin’ here lookin’ at? Wliar’s
yer manners ?”
“Hain’t got none!” called three of
1 hem at once.
“No, I spose not, and I can’t blame
ye—not a bit. Children as come up
without any father can’t be s’pected
to hev manners. Whar ye from, stran
ger?”
“Bristol.”
“Right smart huddle, I’ve heard, but
I’ve never bin thar’. Hear ’em say
anything about me?”
“No.”
“No? Well, I s’pose they’ve heard
of me, but didn’t want to say anything
to a stranger. I’m the man who had
forty-two biles on his back in one win
ter.”
“You did ?”
“Yes; and I never got the least sym
pathy from my family. I’ve also had
rheumatism, lung fever, lame back,
fever-sore, consumption and yaller
fever. Not one of the family shed a
tear.”
“Is it possible ?”
“And I broke my leg, lost a $200
mule by pizen, had my barn burn up,
lost a farm on a mortgage and buried
two children.”
“Well, you have suffered.”
“Suffered? Stranger, excuse these
tears; but your’s are the first kind
words I’ve heard since the war closed.”
“Pap is bellering, ma !” shouted the
children, as they ran for the house, and
the woman presently rushed out and
said:
“Now, thar, Zekiel. you git, and you
thar’, stranger, come in to smack.'
.“Didn’t I tell you so?” exclaimed
Zekiel, as he made a bolt for the
woods. “I’m the discouragedist,
downtroddenest, unfortunatest man in
all creation, and I’m going to hang my
self.”
“You dassn’t, and you know you
dassn’t ?” shouted the wife.
“You dassn’t hang nuthing." added
the children.
“Of course, but I’m the distressedest,
being a wife and a mother.”
“Any particular cause ?” I asked.
“More’n ten millyon particular caus
es, stranger! No human being will
ever know what I have suffered in body
and mind.”
“And we’ve suffered, too !” chorused
the children.
“Yes, some, but nothing in compar
and lick molasses candy after the East
ern fashion. I presume about that
time we will be passing in our checks.
The property, you know, will be divid
ed among six persons—my own three
children and the three children of my
brother, Judge Jackson. That will be
less than a thousand acres each. Less
than a thousand acres of blue grass
land is a pretty small farm on which to
I’ve had toothache, earache, attempt to make a living. It can be
pleurisy, quinsy, chills, fever, shakes,
jaundice and bilious fever, and through
the hull of it there'has not been one
human being to feel sorry for me.”
“Is it possible ?”
“And I haven’t a relashun as will
speak to me, on account of my marry
ing Zekiel, and if I was dying to-mor
row not one of ’em would come to lay
me out for my coffin !”
“That is indeed sad.”
“Stranger, them is the first kind
words I’ve heard for twenty years, and
you must—must—”
“And mam is bellering, too !” shout
ed the children, as she held her apron
to her eyes.
Presently Zekiel came creeping in,
trying-to look careless and indifferent,
but he had scarcely entered the door
when his wife jumped up aiid said:
“Didn’t I say you dassn’t hang yer-
self ?”
“And hain’t you threatened to pizen
yerself a dozen times over?”
“And we want to die, too !” howled
the children.
“Stranger,’’said the wife, as she began
to clear up the table, “take a good look
at that thing over there as calls hisself
a man. You’ll never set eye on such
an ornery, shiftless, good-for-nothing
specimen of manhood. He hain’t fit
fur bears to chaw on !”
“Give it back to her, pap !” shouted
the oldest girl.
“Stranger,” replied Zekiel, as lie spit
out the bark be was chewing, “you
hain’t blind. You kin see as well as
me, and you kin now realize why I am
the downtroddenest, mournfullest man
in Tennessee. I’ve either got to hang
myself or go on in this way.”
“Don’t you believe him !” appealed
the wife. “It’s all owing to him, and
I kin prove it. If anybody is down
troddenest it’s me!”
“They dassn’t pull ha’r and claw,”
observed the girl to me in strict confi
dence.
I was about to try and effect a recon
ciliation when the teamster returned,
having hired a vehicle a couple of miles
away, arid as I left the house Zekiel
left with me.
“No you don’t,” exclaimed the wife.
“You want to take advantage of me,
but you can’t.”
She put on her bonnet and walked
out with us, and the six children
brought up the tail-end of the proces
sion. As I got into the vehicle Zekiel
began:
“Stranger, I’m sorry we hadn’t sun-
thin’ better, but as I told you at the
start, I’m the mournfullest, downtrod
denest—”
“Don’t you believe him, stranger,”
interrupted the wife. “If anybody lias
suffered more’n another it’s—”
“They dassn’t fight !”yelled the chil
dren.
And as we moved away over the
rocky road Zekiel made another bolt
for the woods to hang himself, and the
children were clapping their hands and
shouting:
“Come back here, pap, and be a
man !”

I have been suffering for most thirty years
with ami itching and burning; all over my

menced last January to use B. B. B., and af
ter using ive bottles I felt stouter and better
than I have in thirty years, my health is bet
ter, and -weigh more than I ever did. The
itching h-i'A nearly ceased, and l am confident
j that a few-more bottles of B. 3. B. wi-ll cure
me entirely. I ana sixty-two years old now
and can do a good day’s work in my field. I
consider 3.11. B. the best blood purifier that I
have ever s??n, for it certainly did me more
good than -Ml the medicine I have ever taken
