Why a Mountaineer Would Not Sell Hit I Crop of Walnuts. As I pulled up out of tho steepest port of tho Cumberland mountain road and drove along tho honch of the mountain, with n beautiful view off down tho valley, I stopped a moment to gnze upon tho love? liness of nature and to breathe In deep drafts of tho invigorating mountain air. At n turn into n lltt.lo recessed vale un? der the crag stood a vino clad cabin much better in appearance than any I had su n since crossing over to the Tennessee side of tho mountain. About it wns a thrifty lit ilii mountain farm, and on tho wood pile in front sat a solemn specimen of the mnlo mountaineer. "Good morning," I said. "Cnn you tell jno where William Sknggs livesf" "Whot do you want uv him, stranger?" he replied. Thero was no use of contending a point on the ground that it was none of his busi? ness whnt I wanted with Mr. Skftggs, be? came I was sure to gain nothing by It. So I submitted. "I understand ho has sonic walnut trees lor ri'.le," 1 said. "Ho hain't got nny now." "How do you knowf" I asked in some surprise, for the usual mountaineer Is not so communicative. "CozoI'm William ?kaggs, and I reckon I onplit to know whnt Hill's KOt." "Oh, I Ihk your pardon," I hastened to oiuluin. "Of course I did not know who you were, xnoy loin mo at Uroy's Aiili iasl night Unit you had a lot of walnut. "Weil, they wuz about half right, stran? ger, but since day before yis?ddy things has changed. The rSkngpscs has had n scrim mngowlth (he Hankluscs, and thorn's like? ly to bo war for the next six months or n year. Tliar's about 40 men on our side to about HO on t'other side, hilt they air pore white trash llvln In hogpens, kinder, while wo has places llko this," sweeping his hand toward his hotiso and farm, "and wc air proud uv ourselves and ain't goiu to git below I ho lovol that wo nlr usotcr. That's why thar ain't no walnut trees for sale. Every ono uv them Iltinkinses thai we air goiu to do away witli is goiu to hh last rest in a ynllor poplar box, but when a Sknggs has a funeral you'll see him goln down to his last rest In place in a walnut coffin, That's what, mid thorn trees uv mino'll furnish tho timber. That's why they ain't f er sale, mister, jlst at present." ?Washington Star. Tho Difference.

Styles For Winter as Indicated by Au? tumn Costumes?Mew Pocket Hand? kerchiefs?Mero Mention. It seems safo to say, judging from tho autumn styles, that soon the rough sur? faced cloths so much used of lato will givo pluco to smooth, satin finished goods such as poplins and cashmere, AUTUMN COSTUMES. with silks for homo wear. Black silk will again becomo a fashionable gown and grosgrain or peau do soio tho choice, although figured and brocaded black silk will bo very much worn. Durk, subdued colors will bo used for tho streets, with no contrasts. Instead dif? ferent shades of tho samo color will tono into ouo another. Tho skirts will bo only moderately full, and all will bo trimmed, somo I with frills from top to hem, others cm | broidered about tho bottom with braids of various widths. Tho trimming of evening gowns will bo very elaborate. I The bolted waist hns got to shaxo its popularity with tho princess rediugoto and tho cuirass basque. It will bo worn, but not exclusively. Tho bolero jacket will not havo things all its own way any more, for an important rival has mado its appearauce in tho Russian coat, which is in high favor this fall. Fancy waists aro just as fashionable as over. Although tho entire gown of cloth is becoming more tho vogue, nny ItUSSIAN COAT IJOUICE?FANCY WAISTS. thing so useful as tho oxtra waist could not easily bo put asido suddenly, lu addition to the foregoing fashion hints tho New York Sun illustrates a group of fashionable waists, among which is a lit t io Russian coat bodice. Now gowns for autumn wear that indicato tho com? ing winter styles aro also depicted. Pocket Handkerchiefs. Thero is a revival of interest in cm broidery on linen, and some handker? chiefs shown recently are marvels of fine Stitching. Some havo no speck of color, oud the decorutivo arrangement in not so often a border as an artistic, irregular pattern scattered over tho whole handkerchief. A graceful design shows a flock of birds, and another, even more attractive, has tiu3* birds and butterflies flying over a flower de? sign. Decidedly less dressy aro somo "chic" affairs, with borders formed of solid bar or several narrow stripes of pain blue, pink or buff, and with a small but elaborate monogram iu tho corner done in tho colored thread. Tho monogram may be o* tho color display? ed in tho border, combined with nnoth er, or of a totally different shade, for these niouchoirs are supposed to bo orig? inal and smart and to be carried only with a "tailor nuido" suit, says a writ? er in tho New York Tribune. The New Bouquets. Flowers provide d for bridal parties and also thoso used by women in even? ing costume this season are again de? scribed as mado bouquets, bnt in no way do they reseinblo tho old timo bou? quets. A New York exchange describes tho difference: Tho old timo bonquets wero pyramid shaped masses of flowers, each blossom so closely parked in place that its beauty was lost. The new bou? quets have flowers on ono sido only, so grouped as to show each individual blossom and give a graceful but care? less arrangement of them. These ono sided bouquets have the advantage of being lighter und less clumsy to mnungo than tho old stylo. The wearer may hold one of them close to her gown without being iu constant fear of crush? ing tho blossoms. Another good point is that a smaller number of flowers is required, thus making tho expenso much less. Dlero Mention. Leather purses nro selected with a view to matching either gown or gloves. There nro many reasons for believing that tho trailing skirt will bo much in evidence during tho coming season. Some of tho tea services show fluted bodies nnd engraved tops. Others havo fluted 1midles and tops iu bright finish. Marietta Holloy, author of ".losiah Allen's Wife, " is said to bo ono of tho best paid women writers in tho United States. Tho Puritan announces that powdered hair is again in favor?-not a heavily powdered, pomatumed effect, but a faint dusting with perfumed rice pow? der. Thero is a serviccablo article in the shape of n bicycle carrier. It is mado of thick, woven strands of reed and rattan and so arranged that tho bicyclo can bo shipped intact without possible chance of injury to any of its parta The man 1 who neglects his health for the sake of the excite? ment of work and money getting, Is dancing with Death. It is a dance in which Death always comes out victor. If a man will only spare 'enough time to take care of health, to eat, and rest and sleep properly, and when he feels slightly indis? posed will resort to the right remedy, he may work as hard as he pleases, and pile up money steeple high, without fear of un? timely death. The worst enemy with which hard-work? ing men have to contend is a disordered digestion. It is the starting point for most sickness and disease. Dr. Pierce's Qolden Medical Discovery prevents sickness and disease. Its use insures a hearty appetite, and healthful, restful sleep. It corrects all disorders of the digestion, invigorates the liver and purifies the blood. Ii tones the nerves. It makes pure, rich blood, builds firm healthy flesh, and strong, elastic mus? cle. The man who resorts to it whenever he feels out of sorts, may, within reason, work as hard as he pleases. Druggists sell it. "Enclosed please find 21 one-cent stamps," writes Jnines Trent, of Clarendon, Donley Co., Texas, 'for which please send mc n copy of Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser in pa? per covers. I have been taking Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery for the blood nnd think it is the best blood-purifier iu existence." One of the best-known of American med? ical men said: "If you want to reform a man. begin with his grandfather." That would be wise if it could be done. Since it cannot be done, try something else. Reform the future grandfathers and grandmothers. Do this through education. The greatest thing for a man or woman to know is him? self or herself. To know one-half the capa? bilities and disabilities of the human body is a liberal education. A good start for this education is ?Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser.
