Testimonial to Mrs. Z. B. Graves.
The Board of Trustees of the
Union Church School desires to
express its appreciation of the
services of Mrs. Z. B. Graves as
principal teacher of this school,
until Prof. Graves can enter upon
his summer work with us.
It is the unanimous sentiment of
this board and of every patron of
this school, that though nearly 60
pupils are in attendance, Mrs.
Graves has kept perfect order, and
the advancement of our children
has been unparallelod in the past.
As we have in a body twice visited
the school, we know that from the
infant to the Latin class the clos
est interest to work is observed.
This whole school neighborhood of
educable age, night and day, are
bending to work under her firm
and pervasive influence.
Our thanks and our gratitude
are publicly given, for if any
one deserves praise for efficient,
prompt, executive and persistent
and affectionate and intelligent in
struction of children, our teacher
finds it in the hearts and on the
lips of this entire patronage. We
love our chlidren and we want
them educated, and they are being
educated.

Poultry in Demand.
: Dressed turkeys are selling at
25 cents per pound on the Jackson
market and fat hens, regardless of
age, are worth one dollar each,
spring chickens are almost impos
sible to obtaig at any price.
The dearth of homegrown fowls
on the local market strikingly il
lustrates the oft-repeated assertion
that the farmers of Mississippi do
not know bow to take advantage
of their opportunities. Several
large poultry farms around Jack
don would be a veritable bonanza
for their owners, yet not a single
enterprise of this kind worthy of
the name has been launched.
Mr. J. Ehrmap, a local meat
dealer, has purchased flora Ten
nessee farmers during the past
four months over $2,000 worth
of turkeys, chickens and young
pigs. This money has gone out
of the state forever, and there is
no sensible reason why it should
not have remained in the pockets
of the Mississippi farmers.—-Clar

Two Sinters.
Jenny Lind and Grisi, rivals
for popular favor inLondon, were
invited to sing the same night at
a concert before the queen. Jenny
Lind, being the younger, sang
first and was so disturbed by the
fierce, scornful look of Grisi that
she was at the pbint of failure,
when, suddenly, an inspiration
came to her. The accompanist was
striking his final chords. She ask
ed him to rise and took the vacant
seat. Her fingeis wandered over
the keys in a loving prelude, and
then sne sang a little prayer which
she had loved as a child. She
hadn’t sung it for years. As she
sang she was no longer in the
presence of royalty, but singing
to loving friends in her fatherland.
Softly at first the plaintive notes
floated on the air, swelling louder
and richer every moment. The
singer seemed to throw her whole
soul into that weird, thrilling,
plaintive “prayer.” Gradually
the song died away and ended in
a sob. There was silence—the
silence of admiring wonder. The
audience sat spellbound. Jenny
Lind lifted her sweet eyes to look
into the scornful face that had so
disconcerted her. There was no
fierce expression now; instead,
a tear-drop glistened on the long,
black lashes, and after a moment,
with the impulsiveness of a chjld
of the tropics, Grisi crossed to
Jenny Lind’s side, placed her arm
about her and kissed her, utterly
regardless of the audience.—Ex

Best Congh Medicine for Children.
When yon bay a congh medecine for

Yon want one that not only, relieves
