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. A LESSON IN GERMAN. The Teutou’a Civilizing* Influence as Seen Through English Spectacles.

Zeilin & Co., Philadelphia, Pa. us up to i .. ~ ■ ...... ” “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.

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.” Sold by F. A. Johnson & Co., Rome, Ga. For Sale.

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.

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.
