Letter from Tennessee. ' -Cades, Teim., Aug. 23

Dear Readers:—Some t i m e . has elapsed since 1 have been represented through the columns of my old county^ paper. As you see 1 am now In tern Tennessee, In about mites of the Mississippi river. The land Is very fertile and raises about the same as tney do in Chester county general-ly. Stock raising Is the chief indus-try.

1 am now working on the Illinois Central railroad. -The pay here Is su perlor to the east because I he water Is so Iiad and the climate Is unheal-thy. I t Is no trouble for any one get a position out here, provided you can stated It. The people are general-ly a yellow color aud are thin aod poor.

I will tell you of my visit to Cairo, III , yesterday. As we get above Ful-tou, Ky., you will see no cotton ind corn, nothing but fields of tobacco until you reach ihe Mississippi, then you will see ail corn, maybe, a l,00(i acre bottom. 1 crossed the Ohio riv-er just before entering Cairo Tills Is a large stream and the lltlnols Central railroad has a four mile bridge over the river. Steam boats are very busy on the Mississippi and Ohio rivers. The Ohio river runs Into the Mississ-ippi just a half mile below Carlo. Tills place Is divided iuto two parts, Cairo and East Carlo. Yon cannot tell Sunday _ from any other day. Shops, saloons, dry groods and grocery stores and all places of business are In full blast.

Cairo Is a large city, about J times larger than Columbia. S. C. The ne-gro has as much show here as a white man. They have negro police eu the force, and It Is nothing to see a ne-gro and a white woman' walking to-gether. and It Is not uiicom mou for a white- lady to marry a negro. Negro and white rich ride In the same coach till they hit the Ohio river (and are

lu Kentucky,) and then they, have to change Into a seperate car. They tell me If a man hires to a far-mer in Illinois he Is InVlted to the barn lo sleep. They equalize tliem-

Ives. The ouly difference between the whites aud blacks Is th&color.

I like this country very much. The further, nor th 1 go the bet ler I like It, bu t the peopleout here are Just for them selves.

The tobacco crop Is very line l'i Kentucky aud every body seems living on a '.conorrical plan. I want all my frleuds to w'rlte me. Address T. V. Neal, Cades, Term., care 1 C. R. It.

old furniture, but one of the best meth-ods Is the alternate use of sandpaix-r and varnish. First remove every par-ticle of dust, dirt and old cracked var-nish from tbe piece of furn i tu re to be treated, gett ing right down to the bare wood. To aid In this work a cabinet scraper or glass will bo necessary and a bottle of wood alcohol to soften the varnish. After the varnish is removed sandpaper the wood to a smooth sur*' face. At least four coats of finishing varnish will be required, and a f t e r each has become thoroughly dry rub lightly with flue sandpaper. After, the last coat of varnish has dried for two days rub - lulled linseed oil on the treated surfaces with a sof t cloth.

"Take off the bands, the face, the pendulum and its wire. Remove ratch-et from the tick wheel and the clock will run down with great velocity. Let It go.

Jeweler, "are wllllug to t rust to their own knowledge mid oltservuUon In purchasing diamonds. Even pawn-brokers, who spend their lives In han-dling precious stones, are often cheat-ed. Although to become an expert U the development of n si>erlal gift through years of cx|ierlencc. there are a few simple tests which will aid a buyer of diamonds.

"One test ls tA~ prick a needle bole through a card and look a t the hole through the doubtful stone, if the loiter. .18 spurious two boles will be seei». hnt If It Is * diamond only one hole will be visible. Every Imitation stone which resembles- 'a diamond gives a double .rejection, while th* genuine diamond's reflection Is single. This Is a delicate test. Iiecauae It Is difficult to see even a sharp and well dff lnrd object through a diamond. The single refraction of the gem also al-lows one to determine an uncertain stone. If the finger Is placed behind It and viewed .through tlie stone with a watchmaker 's glass the grain of- the skin will lie plainly seen if the stone is not a diamond. But If it Is a diamond the grain of the skin will not b* dis-tinguished at all."

They should lie stretched out on a flat sur-face and scrublied with soap and a •tiff brush - untjl they a re perfectly clean.

Apart from fresh-ening' the ribbons the fact of taking them out of the shoes frequently makes thein last longer, a s It Is not likely that they are put back In exactly tbe same way. and tlje strain on tbe ribbon from the eyelets does not thus come in the same places each time.'

tired seusatlon is luade by boiling and Altering half n pint of wnter and pouring Into It while still warm one-half teaiipoohful of refined tsirax and ten drops of kplrlts o fcampl ior . says tho Waahingtftn Star. I-ot_ this cool, then filter again through a piece of thin muslin.

The cup may be partly filled with this liquid morning and night and any time during the day wheh the eye* feel tired. It should be applied as pre-vloosiy directed and af ter using for a tlmo will usually clear away the yel-low scum so frequently seen on eye-balls and always so disfiguring. Be-fore applying any lotion the eyes must always be carefully bathed In warm

For eyes that are weak a tonic wash recommended by English oculists Is made In this way: Ono-half of un ounce of rock salt and one ounce of dry sul-phate of sine simmered in a perfectly clean, covered jiorcelaln vessel with three pints of water until the .lngrnll-

aro nil dissolved. Strain tbrougb-thlck. clean muslin, add one ounce of

aud cork tightly. Use when the eyes feel weak. If the lotion smarts, add a little water. The eye cup should be kept perfectly clean.

If a f t e r simple home treatment the eyeballs continue to show a yellowish appearance no t ime should be lost In consulting a physician, t o r something wrong with tho system Is Indicated. Any Inflammation of the eyes Is likely to exhibit Itself 4>y secretion on tho lids In the morning, and this condition should lie checked liefore It leads Into another, more serious state.

After bathing with either of the lo-tions given the edges of tbe lids should be covered at night with a paste made of two and onerhnlf centigrams each of oxide of zinc and subucetatu of lead, twenty-five centigrams of oil of sweet

Imonds, three grams of white vase-line anil three drops of tlncturo of benzoin.

It Is well to have this compounded r a chemist, for should there be tho

least lump or grain It Is apt to And l is y Into the eye and cause Irritation, making any lotion at home too

much care cannot be given to filtering, and should the liquid bccomo cloudy a f t e r a t ime It must be strained again to prevent causing Irritation.
