The Great Georgia Healer.
The Atlanta papers are loud in their
praise of Prof. James J. Nichols, the
Georgir Healer. He is said to heal
disease by a touch, and certificates
published in the Atlanta papers from
well-known persons, certify to the
fact that he does quickly cure rheu
matism, deafness, stiff joints, debility,
dropsy, female troubles, and many
other ailments which afflict mankind.
Call and see’him at the Casa-Venio
House, 27 Auburn Ave , when you go
to Atlanta, or write to him for partic
ulars. He heals at a distance by a
method of his own. Strange things
happen these days—more than Hora
tio ever dreamed of in his philosophy.

“brutal shopkeepers, devoid of
and noble ideals, ’ ’ ut that very moun
one of the Kulturtragcr sent out to or.
ilize Africa was being tried in Potsd;.
for briuglng the German name into di.
repute there. Wehlan—this is the ad
ministrator’s name—who is only one ql
many, had been sent out as vice chan
cellor of Cameron, had occasionally rep
resented tho governor, and during the
Bakoko rising had acted as chief of the
police force. His administration was
systematized cruelty of a kind which a
few instances will illustrate. Augustus
Bell, “a nigger,” was accused of hav
ing stolen a watch. He denied the
charge, and Vice Chancellor Vehlan
condemned him to receive 60 strokes of
a hippopotamus hide whip to compel
him to confess. When this sentence was
executed, the man’s body was a jelly.
Dr. Valentin said that “a raw hacked
beefsteak was nothing in comparison. ”
A cook who humanely gave a few cigars
to a man chrjged with larceny received
20 lashes of the same instrument of
torture.
The government interpreter, Eteeki,
stole some money and spirits, and to
punish him the German vice chancellor
and assessor, Wehlan, kicked him so
long and so crqgjjy that the engineer of
the German steamer Nachtigall had to
turn away unable any longer to look
upon the sight. Then Wehlan ordered
15 lashes to be administered to the
wounded man, and finally gave instruc
tions to have a rope tied round' his
waist so that he could be plunged into
the water. One of three prisoners whom
he had in custody was helped by a cook
to escape. Wehlan ordered the cook
to be seized and killed with the two
prisoners—beaten to death, “no weap
ons to be used. ” They were kicked and
thumped until half dead, when their
necks were struck and their heads bat
tered in. The corpses were horribly dis
figured. During the Bakoko insurrec
tion villages were burned to the. ground
and the throats of helpless old-women
cut. Prisoners, when taken, which was
not always, were delivered up to <he
soldiers to be scalped alive. “Acut was
made in the lower jaw with a knife,
the fellow seized by the teeth, and the
whole scalp drawn over the face and
head.” Two German gospel mission
aries testified that these were the most
efficacious means of improving the nig
gers!—Fortnightly Review.
Remarkable Facts About Baldness.
A French doctor, who has been stu
dying the subject for many years, says
that out of a hundred people from 20 to
30 years of age, taken at hazard, 27 will
be found to be bald. Women conceal
such a deficiency with great cleverness,
and are not often detected: but while
the loss of hair is not so prevalent among
them as among men, yet, if the propor
tion of the fair sex, whose heads are as
smooth as doorknobs, could be accu
rately learned the results would be un
doubtedly starting. Between the ages
of 30 and 40 the percentage of baldheads
rises to 47 per 100.
The critical period, however, is be
tween 40 and 50 years. Out of a hun
dred chance subjects, only 25 had
fairly good growth of hair; the other
75 being almost destitute entirely of
capillary'covering. When the 60th
year is passed, this physician asserts,
it is rare to find a man who has
enough hair on the top of his head to
make parting a possibility.
It is consoling, however, to know
that this annoying affliction can now
be cured, as a wonderful remedy has
been discovered that will positively
produce a luxuriant growth of hair
on the baldest head. It is also an ex
cellent remedy for thin eyebrows and
eyelashes, hair falling, scanty parting
will positively force a growth of whis
kers and mustache, on the smoothest
face at any age, besides restoring gray
and faded hair to its original color.

15u Maurier and Clara Moscheles.
In 1858 my father came on a visit to
Antwerp with my mother and my young
est sister, Clara. Wherever my father
took up his abode, even temporarily, a
grand piano in the natural course of
events would gravitate toward him and
a select circle cf art lovers would soon
be grouped around it. Among the friends
in the Antwerp circle were Van Lerius,
Tadema, Baron Leys, Huysmans and
Bource. My sister at that time was a
bright and happy creature, not long out
of her teens, full of hopes, alas 1 never
to bo realized, and of talents never to bo
matured. The large dark eyes—they
seemed tho gift of her godmother, the
famous Malibran—reflected the artist’s
soul, and a grand soprano voice spoke
its powerful language. Du Maurier and
she were soon on a brother and sisterly
footing, and they ever remained so.—
Felix Moscheles in Century.
NINE MONTHS IN BED. CURED
24 HOURS.
T. J. Blackmore, of Haller & Blackmore
Pittsburg, Pa., says: “A short time since I
procured a bottle of ‘‘Mystic Cure.” It got
me out of the house in twenty-four hours.
I took to my bed with Rheumatism nine
months ago and the ‘‘Mystic Cure” is the
only medicine that did any good. I had
five of the best physicians in the city, but
received very little reliex ‘rom them. I
know that Mystic Cure to be what It is rep
resented and take pleasure n racomending
it to ether sufferers.”

THE HOME TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, MAY 23, 1896.
A Complete Metamorpoais,
“Well? well! Old man, how are you?
Glad to see you! You’re looking well,
but what’s the cause? Been to the coun
try? Got married, or what?”
“If you give me time I’ll tell you. If I
am looking unusually well, and I know
thyt I am, for I feel so, and am told so
a hundred times a day, it’s; due to the
fact that I am not smoking cigarettes
now or using tobacco in any form How
did I quit? Well, I’ll tell you. I saw an
advertisement one day headed “Anti-
Cigarette, It Cures Naturally”—and the
name caught me To make a long story
short, I tried it, bought two boxes and
was cured, so to speak, before I had used
the second box. I can’t tell you in medi
cal technicalities how it was done, but
it’s just this-It eradicated the nicotine
from my system without tearing me up
internally. It was done simply and easily
aud in a few days I had no desire, no in
tense craving to smoke so incidental to
cigarette smokers, and I felt like a boy
who had never tasted tobacco, and now I
feel like a new man altogether. It is
simply wonderful and wonderfully sim
ple, and lam going to give the Empire
Remedy company as strong a letter of
endorsement as they could wish; for
such a blessing should be told to the
world.”
After this conversation the reporter
called on Mr. Smith, the general manager,
who modestly disclaimed all credit for
being a miracle worker, and said simply
that he had worked patiently for years
to accomplish what is now being talked
of not only all over Atlanta but through
the entire south, to prove which he
showed the reporter a bewildering array
of mail from 20 differant states asking
for and endorsing his Anti-Cigarette To
bacco Cure.

Cheap Reputation’ Easily Gained.
“My son,’’said the aged man, “as
you are now about to enter the great
world this little bit of advice may be of
great use to you: 'Whenever you make
a 10 cent purchase, slam a dollar down
carelessly on the counter in payment.
In this way you may acquire a reputa
tion for being a whole souled fellow to
whom money is as naught at a mighty
small expense.”—Cincinnati Enquirer.
When your stomach begins to trouble
you, it needs he’p. The help it needs is
to digest your food, and until it gets it,
you won’t have any peace. Stomach
trouble is very distressing, very obsti
nate, very dangerous. Many of ihe most
diseases begin with simple indigestion.
The reason is that indigestion (not diges-'
tion, not nourishment) weakens the sys
tem and allows disease germs to attack it
The antidote is Shaker Digestive cordial,
strengthening, nourishing, curative. It
cures indigestion and renews strength
and health. It does this by strengthen
ing the stomach, by helping it to digest
your food. It nourishes you. Shaker Di
gestive cordial is made of pure herbe,
plants and wine, is perfectly harmless
and will certainly cure all genuine stom
ach trouble. Sold by>druggists, price 10
cents to $1 per Bottle.
Singular Compliment.
An author some time ago received a
singular compliment. A burglar broke
iuto his house and found the manuscript
of a novel, which he took, leaving the
following note: “Sir—l began to read
your novel, and I was so deeply inter
ested in it that I was obliged to carry it
away, but it will be faithfully returned
when finished. ’ ’ The manuscript was
duly sent back, with a really clever
critique on it.—Chicago Inter Ocean.
A
Affection.
Talk not of wasted affection! Affec
tion never was wasted. If it enrich not
the heart of another, its waters, return
ing back to their springs like the rain,
shall till them full of refreshing; that
which the fountain sends forth returns
again to the fountain.—Longfellow.

That Familiar Cloud.
“Duh is a cloud i n dis ’scmblage, I’zc
sorry to say,’’said Dewberry Jones as
he bold his razor between the pot and
his opponent at poker.
“Is dah?” asked the man who was
reaching for the money rather nervous
ly-
“ Yassah. It am no biggah dan a man’s
han, but when de size ob dat han hap
pius ter be five deuces yoh kin jes’ bet

The Ideal Panacea.
James L. Francis, aiderman, Chicago
says: "I regard Dr. King’s New Dis
covery as an ideal panacea for coughs,
colds and lung complaints, having used
it in my family for the last five years,
to the exclusion of physician’s presci ip
tions or other preparations.”
Rev. John Burgus, Keokuk, lowa,
writes: “I have been a minister of the
Methodist Episcopal church for 50 years
or more, and have never found any
thing so beneficial, or that gave me
such speedy relief as Dr. King’s New
Discovery. Try this ideal cough rem
edy now. Trial bottles free at D. W.
