Vernal Items.
Mr. aud Mrs. Atwell spent last
Sunday with homefolks and the host
part of it is they brought some very
nice cane and, Oh, how sweet it was.
Mrs J, T. Hadden has been quite
sick for several weeks but we are
glad to report her convalescent.
I think Mr. A. had better mind
how he tells the girls good bye, here¬
after.
Miss Sallie Hadden celebrated her
22nd birth day last Sunday and in¬
vited the writer down. I certainly
did enjoy myself and also several
others who were present. Her din*,
ner was simply grand. Mrs. Cum-
bie cooked her one of the nicest
cakes I ever saw and you can imag¬
ine how it tasted, Oh how good, and
also presented with a very nice birth
day present which was a set of glass¬
es. Those present were Misses Em¬
ma and Lydia Hawke, Mr. and Mrs.
J. L. Cumbie and Misses Lucy and
Loe.
Miss Jennie Hadden spent last
Saturday night with the Misses
Hawke. —.
Mr. IT. O. Collins spent last Sum-
day with homefolks neat’ Bethel.
The writer attended Sabbath
School at Wooten’s school house
last Sunday p. m. and they had a
very nice school but I think it would
be better aud be controlled better if
more old people would attend.
Guess what young man started to
Sunday School last Sunday on his
bicycle aud had to take it a-foofc.
A certain young man ought to be
more particular how he drives around
the corner so as to throw a young
lady out of the buggy aud then run
over her.
Mr. A. A. was all smiles last Sun¬
day as he was with his best girl.
Miss Sally Hadden spent last Sat¬
urday night and Sunday in Vernal,
guest of Miss Lucy Cumbie,
Mr. H. C. Collins made a business
tup to Dickey last Monday.
Messrs. D. R. Stewart and J. L
Cumbie attended Bethel Association-

One of the army chaplains, an
Irishman, Murphy by name, was
full of human nature, and knew how
to deal with the men in such a way
as to gain their respect and win their
hearts, says the Chicago Advance.
He seemed to think that profanity
may sometimes be overlooked, as a
military necessity. During a severe
storm a number of soldiers and a
newspaper correspondent were stand¬
ing under a tree, and Father Murphy
was standing on. the other side of
the tree. As the lightning flashed
over their heads and the water ran
down their backs, one of the soldiers
burst into a vivid and profane de¬
nunciation of Cuban weather and
Cuban things in general. “Stop it,,”
said the correspondent, “there’s a
parson right behind you; ” aud the
soldier brought his remarks on the
weathor to an abrupt close. - After
the storm was over he
was introduced to Father Murphy
and said iu a rather shamefaced way:
“1 hope, Father, you’ll - excuse me
for swearing the way I did when we
were under the tree ” “ Certainly,
ary friend, certainly,” said the Fath¬
er. “Indeed, you were not, swearing,
at all,merely underlining your words,
I quite agree with all you said..”., ..
Discovered by tf Worn A*’. 1
Another great discovery has been
made and tint too, by a lady in this
country, “Disease fastened its
clutches upon her and for seven years
she withstood its severest tests, hut
her vital organs were undermined’
and death seemed imminent. For
three' months she .coughed itiees-
santlv and could not sleep. She fi¬
nally discovered a way to recovery,
by purchasing of us a bottle of Dr.
King’s New Discovery for Consump¬
tion, and was so much relieved on
taking first dose, that she slept all
night; and with two bottles was abso¬
lutely cured. Her name is Mrs. Lu¬
ther Lutz.” Thus writes W. C.
Hamnick & Co., of Shelbyville, N. C.

80ME BEAUTY RULES.
fifodera Beoipea jTor Atfcolmlng: Good Looki
Of Varied Rmdfl.
To Get Thin.—Eat a great deal of
chopped 13!eat without any potato
In it. Prink little fluid of any kind
except strong tea. Exercise a great
deal without, drinking aud do not
eat brfead, butter or candy. Lemon¬
ade, acid drinks of all kinds and
saline mineral waters are excellent.
Drink a glass of clear water before
breakfast.
To Get Eat—Eat vegetables and
sleep lifter each meal. Go to bed at
9 o’clock and lie in bed half an hour
after you wake up. Laugh a great
deal. Drink water by the pint or
the quart if you can. Drink weak
and sweet tea with plenty of milk
in ft. Ta ke cod liver oil aud BWeet
oils as much as you can. Eat until
you feel as if you would burst at
the table. Put plenty of butter on
your bread, and do not be afraid of
ales t> l%ars and sweet wines. This
will gtfcirantee a gain of five pounds
a f rnohth, and if sleep
you can a
gr.eat deal of double that amount.
To Have a White Skin.—Eat no
meat at'all. Become a vegetarian;
thoy always have beautiful skins.
Once in six weeks or so eat a meal
of fresh meat. This does away with
the tdffeoney to scurvy—that curso
of the vogethrian. Drink-as much
water as you can, eat little grease
and touch no tea or epffeo, Your
breakfast may be oatmeal and
oranges; your dinner fruit, nuts,
fruit tea—preferably quince tea—
graham muffins, cauliflower cro-
quettos, marmalade and dishes of
stewed vegetables. The diet is not
go bad when you get used to it. In
largo towns yon will find one or two
restaurants catering to such as you.
To Become Very Muscular.—Walk
a great deal, carrying something al¬
ways in the bands. This develops
tho arms. To roll a hoop might be
good if one were brave enough to
do so in public. Practice lifting a
little every day. Never strain or
tiro yourself. Eat meat, drink milk
and practice bending backward, for¬
ward and sideways every day. At
night rub about a tablespoonful of
brandy or rum into your skin on the
under and tender part of tho arms.
To Have Plump Hands.— Rub
them with sweet oil night and morn¬
ing. Exercise them by rubbing to¬
gether. Never wear tight sleeves or
gnug gloves.
To Keep One’s Feet Small.-—This
is difficult. The first sign that one
bus passed youth is the tendency to
wear a larger pair of shoes—and
thin is ueoessary. Tho feet spread
and really grow. To remedy this
wear shoes us long aH can bo man¬
aged, but not as wide as seem ncces-
kiiry, Nover wear old slippers
around the house, unless they are
snug in the width, and be careful of
corns. These are never necessary
while the chiropodist exists.
To Have a Fine Color,—Wash the
face with' the juice of preserved
strawberries in the winter and in
summer rub a ripe berry : a tljo
face.
For a Smooth, White Skin, With¬
out Dieting.—Batho the face daily
with buttermilk, A preparation of
tincture of benzoin and rosewater
is excellent for whitening purposes.
There are very good prepared
creams, but those are never cheap.
Do not go under $1 for them if you
want them compounded of fine and
pure materials.
To Have One’s Garments Sweet
Scented.—Make sachet bags and slip
them in the linings of dresses. They
will, if good at first, keep their scent
for a year or more. Fold the bodices
of the scented gowns and lay them
away iu airtight boxes. This fills
them with scent — Philadelphia

It is well known that Spanish soldiers
In Cnba were poor marksman, says tho
Scfentiflo American, but groat surprise
has been expressed at the remarkablo
lack of execution which characterized
their fire at Guantanamo and Santiago,
and an officer of,the United States gun¬
boat Montgomery has been able to throw
some light on the matter. Ha visited the
Marla Teresa attar the destruction of
Cevera’s fleet In search of souvenirs Ho
found a large number of Mauser cartridges
in groups of fiyo ready to go Into the
magazines of the guns, and, it the entire
Spanish army and navy were equipped
with that kind of ammunition, both Cer-
yera and Toral wore amply justified in
surrendering when thoy did. The car.
trldgos consisted of a metal shell loaded
with hair and a sprinkling of powder.
Th* bullet was of neither brass nor lead,
bv.L of wood. Somo army contractor had
imposed on the ordnance bureau of the
Spanish navy, but to what extent the
wooden Mauser bullets wore used will
probably never be known.

Against His Connoiehco,
The proprietor of n large London
restaurant has a sirmU-hydraulio lift
fitted up in a corner of bin “second
class room,” which is used for con¬
veying the various dishes from the
kitchen.
One day an unmistakable nativo
of the land north of tho Tweed en¬
tered the shop, anu, having ordered
some refreshment, sat down to wait.
The waiter in attendance called
down to the cook through thespeuk-
ing tube, and in a short time Bandy
was astounded to see the very things
he had ordered rise up, apparently
from the bowels of tho earth.
With a horrified yell he bounded
up, rnado for the door and exclaim*
fed
“Nn, na! Ye’ll no get Sandy Mc-
Nab ta hae what th’ auld deil’u had

"It’s funny how marriage will
change a man,” said Flogg the oilier
day. “There's Mouster, for exam¬
ple. Before he was married a glance
of May Taintor would intoxicate
him, so he used to say. Now when
he cornea homo late ut night und
meets Mrs. Mouster, neo Taintor,
the sight of her actually sobers
him.”—Boston Transcript.
