IMPRESSIONS
Gathered from Observations and
oy Reflection.
o
[bv A litHL m TOW N.]
It is the idle who are always disposed
to grumble and to never be satisfied.
-—o—
Be always just, in vour dealings, and
living or dying your life will be crowned
w ith sucsess and blessings.
It is dangerous to omit duty‘ it leads
us into temptation, then to the commis
sion of crime in lying or in deed.
—o—
Nothing but the present is ours, but
many people plan and labor as if the
Lord had given them a fee simple title
to life and eternity.
—o—
Sincerety, flavored with a spirit of
anxiousness to do right, is the very
queen of virtues ; as such she holds the
sceptre with which she will bo sure to
hold the throne.
Hard feelings, uncharitable criticisms
generally originate from a want of un
derstanding each others’ motives, and
from not being correctly informed as to
each others language used and acts..
—— o— ~
Did you ever notice that there an
some people who never do a generous
or charitable deed only when tho opor
tunity presents itself to give it thorough
publicity? Not to make theexitoitou, is
intolerable to £hsm.
We neglect the little concerns of life
because we think their consequence of
no moment. Finally they overtake us
on a very unexpected turn and become
the source from which originate our
greatest troubles and annoyances.
We are dull to learn from the expe
rience of others. All along the path
way of life there are wrecks which
might have been avoided by merely ob
serving the fragments pointing to the
breakers over which other lives, pros
pects, and hopes have been dashed to
pieces.
Why is it that man is prone to make
a display of his prophetic capabilities,—
an attribute that is more, if not ex
clusively, withm the province of Deity
than any other common to both? Did
misfortune ever overtake anyone without
his friends’ knowing that it would
occur before it did?
—o—
Too many have to learn by experience
that it would have been better bad
they been born pour and rocked in the
erable of poverey, rather than born rich
and nursed in luxury. These are two
extremes, it is tjue, and should be
avoided ; but it does not lessen the gen
eral rule that it requires an extreme, un
less by continual vigilance we profit by
the fate of others.
•—o —
Heaven will not judge and reward
you by the greatness and multiplicity of
vour good deeds, but by tiic heart and
spirit in which yon did them and by the
self sacrifice they cost you. Your works,
your acts, and your deportment, alone
is the criterion by which the world will
praise or condemn you. If your acts
and deportment are not consistent with
your professions and purposes, you have
no right to complain when uncompli
mentary remarks are made about you,
or any one avoids forming a confiden
tial or social relation with you.
It is natural for school boys or girls to
become confident that they have about
reached the goal of mental acquirement
in that particular line, or art, when
they are able to point out gramatical
and rhetorical errors in newspaper ed
itorials and contributions to their col
umns. We only wish to say to them.
Don’t be too much elated over the pos
session of the art; if you ever engage
in literary efforts, however limited, you
will find that the art of using the Eng
lish language in it« most forcible stylo
and-strength is not all learned between
the lids of one book and acquired in the
sehool-ro'om ; you will find your efforts
deficient enough to make you heart-sick.

ENJOY LIFE.
What a truly beautiful world we live in!
Nature gives usgrnndure of mountains,
glens aud oceans, and thousands of
means of enjoyment. We can desire no
better when in perfect health ; but how
often do the majority of the people feel
like giviug up disheartened, discourag
ed and worn out with disease, when
there is uo occasion for this feeling, as
every sufferer can easily obtain satisfac
tory proof, that Gueen’s August flow
er will make them free from disease, as
when born. Dyspepsia and Liver Com
plaint are the direct causes of seventv
tive per cent of such maladies as Bill
ioustiess. Indigestion, Sick Headache,
Costiveness, Nervous Prostration, Disi
noss of Head, Palpitatiou of the Heart,
and other distressing symptoms. Three
doses of August Flower will prove its
wonderful effect. Sample bottles, 10
ceuts. Try it.
Clothing!
You will not find a more complete
line and styles of clothing in Chattanoo
ga than at Wassman Bros.: thier stock
is not only complete, the ueatest and
best fitting styles, but better bargains
caunot he obtaiued anywhere. In fact,
they will sell you clothing at closer mar
gins than auy other clothing house in
the eity. Our dealings with them have
always beeu to our utmost satisfaction.
You 'rill get the worth of your money,
and their manner of dealing is marked
with extreme courtesy to their custo
mers’ wants and tastes. S3O 4t.

friendship,
Man is pre-eminently a social being.
He cannot get along without friends,
but the tendency to make friends often
lead us into trouble, from which it is
very difficult tn escape* We give cur
confidence with too little discrimina
tion, aud in return enjoy the confi
dence of others with but little regard
as to results. Every school boy has
his “chum,” and every school girl her
“confidant.” Confidence begets con
dence, and thus two fitends become
posJcssetl of each other’s secrets, with
no thought of his friendship’s ever be
ing broken,or confidenc being betrayed.
Hie dear friend, the brother or sister,
often becomes an enemy, at least a
cool indiflferency follows. While it is
advisable to have a confidential friend
to whom we may go with our joys
and griefs, it is well to be on the sale
side, and exercise moderation nnd dis
cretion in conversation. Man’s insin
cerity is proverbial, aud too often has
one been forced from the depths of his
soul to say, “Deliver me from my
friends.” But we must not be too
hasty in judging our friends, yet we
are safe in regarding those as enemies
who try to win our confidence and es
teem by flattery. He who tries to in
spire you witii wrong ami enlarged
ideas of your own worth, is trying to
establish a false/riendship on a rotten
foundation, and sooner or later you
fiiiid yourself betrayed it not ruined at
his hands, and now must suffer the
keenest pang of regret for being so ea
sily duped. Rather hold fast to the
triend who points out your faults and
seeks your good by showing yon where
you err, although he may tramp up
on your self conceit. A friend in need
is a friend in deed, and yet we should
act as if wc expected him some day to
be our worst enemy. Seek for your
daily companion those whose daily
walk and conversation is above re
proach, and who will life you to a
higher plane, instead of dragging you
down to misery and disgrace. Such
lriends are above price when the day
of trial and adversity comes. The
poet beautifully expressed it in the fol
lowing lines;
Give mo ii friend to love me,
A friend that I can love,
And let the storms around me blow,
The sky be dark above ;
The breathing of that gentle breast,
The light of that bright eye,
Shall be to me a world of wealth,
Tho rainbow of my sky.

The Gainsville Messenger was ratn
er late in the season with its snake
story, but that didn’t seem to inter
tere with the sue of it. The gentle
man who encountered his snakeslnp
was hunting in the creek swamp near
Gainsvilie, found the snake, which
was 20 years old, 10 feet long, as big
as a keg, and loaded down with rattles,
fired at it and missed. This is a week
point in the story, hut that’s the way it
runs. He then tried to fire again but
snapped ; then stiuck at it with the
gun. bnt (he snake struck too, caught
the gun, jerked it from the hunter and
fired the loaded barrel at him with al
most fatal effect. The hunter was
then chased a few miles hut rail over a
pole which he secured and with which
He dispatched the snake which had
about run him down. He then ripped
open a place in the reptile’s b**lley and
a wild hog and a fox ran out. The
writer doesn’t state, but we suspect
there is a huge “wild eat” or a “blind
tiger” somewhere in that swamp.

much as drilling bodies of raw and

close. This is injustice to the pupils;
financial ruin to parents. Dade Nor

Course of Study shall be arranged to
this end. The school will be divided
into tour departments, to wit: Prima

be divided into separate schools; as,
