That bubbled up from the tainted tide

And hia sarsaparilla, that all now, know.
That was just beginning its fight of tame
With its cures of go years ago.
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla
is the original sarsaparilla. It
has behind it a record for cures
unequalled by any blood puri
fying compound. It is the only
sarsaparilla honored by a
medal at the World’s Fair of
1893. Others imitate the
remedy; they can’t imitate the
record:
gO Years of Cures,
were brokea and on one temple were
two slight bruises. On bis person were
his loaded pistol and $l3O in money, as
he had drawn his salary in Atlanta. His
watch was lying about ten feet from his
body and was still running.
The deceased was born July <6, 1844,
and was in his 54th year. He lost an
eye when a boy from getting the blade of
his knifo stuck in it. When the war
came on, through that physical disabil
ity would have exempted him, he volun
teered in the 39th Ga., at the age of 16.
In his county he was a man of maik,
clear headed, faithful to his friends and
of unerring political judgment.
Among those who accompanied the
body to the family home were our Cou -
gressman, Judge Maddox and Ben Harris
of Rome.
Suit will be brought against the Sea -
board Air Line, as the announcement of
the porter that the next stop would be
the Athens Junction lead to the death of
Mr. Tatum. The next stop was on the
fatal trestle over the Oconee river.

Ail Asinine American.
There was an American gentleman
who genially told Pio Nono that he had
had the honor of being presented to his
holiness' father, the late pope. My
housekeeper is a Roman Catholic, and
I was wicked enough to tell her this
story. If she had been able, she would
have annihilated the whole country of
America on the spot. She was not alto
gether satisfied with me, but I believe
she set against it the relief I had for
merly given by telling her that the holy
father was not (as she had firmly be
lieved) confined to two rooms in the
Vatican by armed sentries of King Hum
bert.—Notes and Queries.
The Seeds Were There.
F .rmer Nubbins (shouting across the
garden fence to his next door neighbor)
—Hey, there! What are you burying in
that hole?
Neighbor—Oh, I’m just replanting
some of my garden seeds.
Nubbins—Garden seeds, eh? Looks to
me mighty like one of my hens.
Neighbor That’s all right The
seeds are inside.—Pick Me Up.
Not Dost.
Young Boreman (who has been talk
ing about himself for the last hour) —
D’you know, 1 had a beastly headache
before I came here today, but I’ve quite
lost it now.
Miss Miggs (wearily)—Oh, it isn’t
lost! I’ve got it.—London Fun.

A Snake Story.
A road party, comprising the usual
gang of from 50 to 60 Kaffins, with a
white man as superintendent, was em
ployed on the construction of a road in
the Tugela valley, Natal, about 30 or
more years ago. In the course of their
work they came on a huge stone which
it was necessary to remove, but beneath
it was the home of a large black mam
ba, well known to the neighboring in
habitants as being old, and therefore
very venomous. The mamba is the most
deadly of the South African snakes, and
the superintendent anticipated some
trouble over that rock. He offered a
bribe for the snake’s skin, and the gang
“Wow—d!” and sat down to “bema
gwi” (take snuff), but a slim youth
sauntered forward and amid the jeers
and protestations of the rest declared
himself equal to the task. He took from
his neck what looked like a bit of shriv
eled stick, chewed it, swallowed some
of it, spat out .the rest on his hands and
proceeded to mb his glistening brown
body and limbs all over. Then, taking
up his stick and chanting a song of de
fiance, he advanced with great confidence
and swagger to the bowlder. There he
roused up the mamba, who, in great
fury at being disturbed, bit him in the
lip with great venom. The boy took no
notice of the bite, but broke the snake’s
back with his stick, and bringing him
to his master asked for the reward, ob
taining which he went back to his
work, and the bite of the reptile had no
effect on him whatever.
No bribe, not even that of a cow (bet
ter than any gold in the eyes of a Kaffir),
would induce this native to disclose the
secret of his antidote, which, he said,
had been handed down in his family
for generations.—London Spectator.
Make a Maa of Him.
The best way to cure a student of pet
ty vices and childish trickery is to make
a man of him. Give him something
real to do, and he will not fritter his
nervous strength away in conviviality
or in degrading associations. But to
forbid excesses and abuses, putting
nothing in their places, cannot be very
effective. Not long ago I had occcasion
to say: “If your college assume to stand
in loco parentis, with rod in hand and
spyglasses on its nose, it will not do
much in the way of moral training.
The fear of punishment will not make
young men moral or religious—least of
all a punishment so easily evaded as the
discipline of a college. If your college
claims to be a reform school, your pro
fessors detective officers, and your pres
ident a chief of police, the student will
give them plenty to do.
“A college cannot take the place of a
parent. To claim that it does is mere
pretense. You may win by inspiration,
not by fear. ‘Free should the scholar
be; free and brave.’ The petty re
straints that may aid in the control of
college sneaks and college snobs are an
insult to college men and college wom
en. It is for the training of men and
women that colleges exist.”—David
Starr Jordan, president of Leland Stan
ford, Jr., university, in North Ameri
can Review.
Cooking and Insanity.
A writer in What to Eat asserts that
40 per cent of the women inmates of
insane asylums have been cooks; that
women cooks either go mad or get mar
ried, while men cooks make money.
The explanations given for this are log
ical and true, the causes that affect the
health and lead to brain deterioration
indisputable. It is but another proof of
the fact quoted recently from Dr.
Maudsley, that women “cannot run over
the same course at the same pace as
men. ” The coarser skin of the male and
his heavier frame are more fitted to en
dure the extremes of heat and hot va
pors that must be endured by cooks.
Another moral to be drawn from the
article is that we cook too mach; our
days and nights are hampered with
meals. Advancing civilization demands
a study of greater simplicity in food; to
call a halt in the race after all sorts of
materials and combinations to whet ca
pricious appetites.
