A BEAUTIFUL WORK
A Sabbath in Pansy Chapsl Sunday
Sctool in This City.
ABOUT ORDER OF THE DAYS WORK
Mr. Samuel Funkhouser Superintendent,
is Assisted in the School By a Corp ot De
voted and Faithful Teachers.
There were no visitors at Pansy
Chapel last Sunday because all the peo
ple who are interested in Sunday school
work attended the schools of which they
are members at 9:30 o’clock —and it is
generally understood those people who
are not interested in some Sunday
school are asleep at that hour. If those
who were resting sonorously then could
have had a glimpse of the scene in the
little mission, the most indifferent
among them would have smiled upon
the children, their earnest teachers—the
most cynical would have been pleased.
The school opened with a little talk
from the Superintendent, Mr, Funk
houser, in regard to what song should
be sung first. The children are always
allowed to select them, and in their
eagerness two spoke at once; a girl
wanted 222, one of the boys called for
<3O. Mr. Funkhouser was fair and asked
the boys if they were not gallant enough
to let the girls have their song first,
then the school would sing No. 60.
When they agreed to this, the genial
superintendent suggested that the* boys
should sing the girls’ song the loudest
so that the girls would help them with
their sweet voices afterward: For it is
acknowledged by these youngsters that
tbe girls sing the sweetest and they con
tent themselves in rivaling them in
their willingness and strong voices. Mrs.
Jack played the organ and led the
singing, as she always does, rain or
shine. And the back of the organ is low
enough for the school to see her face
above it, which would be an inspiration
in its sweetness and kindness even if
every child in the house did not know
and love her. So the Pansies were not
behind in their singing and their teach
ers believe that no other school had
three hymns as heartily rendered as
the Pansy had last Sunday.
There followed a prayer led by Mr.
EB. Pennington, .vho is so ably assist
ing Mr. Funkhouser in the management
of the school. After singing again the
classes tcok their places, and in their
eager rush towards the ladies could be
seen their affection and confidence in
them. To the right was Mrs. Jack’s class
of girls, between thirteen and eighteen
in age,repeating Bible verses for a prize
which is to be given to the one who
commits one hundred to memory.
Nearly every member will have to be
given a prize, for some have learned
over a hundred already. Mrs. Stans
bury wag surrounded by little tots all of
them trying to get nearest to their
teacher. Mr. Pennington taught a large
Bible class of young and old men. Mrs.
Mitchell has young ladies, and her class
is growing verv rapidly. While just in
front of hers is a class which is composed
largely of young mairied women and
ably taught by Mrs. Carroll.
Mrs. W. D. Sparks teaches girls also,
bright faced little ones who know that
Mrs. Sparkscan tell them everything
better than anyone else in the world
could tell it, and they are so well-be
haved for children of their age. Mrs, J.
L. Camp has the other class of little
tots, land a gay and happy company
they are, minding their teacher

At this moment thousands of men are
standing at the cross-roads of life. Death
in the guise of a foolish ambition coaxes
them to take one road, while health and
happiness in the form of wife and babies
coax them to take the other. For the sake
of a few added dollars will they continue to
■over-work and neglect the commonest pre
•catttions for the preservation of health, or
will they listen to love and reason and draw
back before it is too late ? A man may do
almost any amount of good, hard work if he
will take care of his health and when he
feels out of sorts will take the right remedy.
The great blood-maker, flesh-builder and
nerve tonic is Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical
Discovery. It is the hard - workers’ medi
cine. It corrects all disorders of the diges
tion, invigorates the liver, purifies the blood
and tones and steadies the nerves. It makes
the appetite hearty and brings refreshing
sleep. Thousands of hard - workers owe
their lives to it and have said so over their
signatures. Druggists all sell it and all
substitutes are frauds.
“ I was taken with erysipelas in my hands and
went to the doctor,” writes Mrs. Lena Baumgart
ner, of Joy, Charlevoix Co., Mich. ”He said he
could not "cure rar. lie gave me medicine to ease
me but the disea r .« spread all over my body. I
tool: two Imtties of the ‘Golden Medical Discov
ery ’ ami two of.the ' Favorite Prescription ’ and
am entirely cured. I have a boy three weeks old.
I was helpless two or three months before con
finement, but a r ter taking the • Favorite Prescrip
tion ’ I was able to d i my washing three days
before I was confined.”
There is scarcely a known form of ill
health that constipation will not cause or
aggravate. Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets are
an unfailing cure for constipation. One lit
tle “Pellet” is a gentle laxative.
BEWARE OF MORPHINE.

Mrs. Pinkham Aska Women to Seek Permanent
Cures and Not Mere Temporary Relief C
From Pain.
Special forms of suffering lead many a jSgaSwSr / / ! \ I \
woman to acquire the morphine habit, Z \
One of these forms of suffering is a duII,HjSSK?A
persistent pain in the side, accompanied by (k\\ I/, * ; |
heat and throbbing. There is disinclina- va, \\j/' |
tion to work, because work only increases A
the pain. / ySS* n4a “'
This is only one symptom of a chain of c'-
troubles; she has others she cannot bear W
to confide to her physician, for fear of M
an examination, the terror of all sensitive, 11
modest women. 1 H
The physician, meantime, knows her condition, but I 1 \
cannot combat her shrinking terror. He yields to I IA-
her supplication for something to relieve the pain. 1 I i\
He gives her a few morphine tablets, with very s j I \
grave caution as to their use. Foolish woman ! She ■ 1/1
thinks morphine will help her right along ; she be- , 1/ I
comes its slave I (J 1 1 L
A wise and a generous physician had such a case; . 1 l\ \
he told his patient he could do nothing for her, as , 1
she was too nervous to undergo an examination. In despair, she went to visit
a friend. She said to her, “ Don't give yourself up; just go to the nearest
druggist’s and buy a bottle of Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.
It will build you up. You will begin to feel better with the first bottle.” She
did so, and after the fifth bottle her health was re-established. Here is her own
letter about it:
“ I was very miserable ; was so weak that I could hardly
get around the bouse, could not do any work without feel-
SjiflfctjOaSE J i n H tired out. My monthly periods had stopped and I was
ffiMaSra? Tso tired and nervous all of the time. I was troubled very
JhHSe* A mu ch with falling of the womb and bearing-down pains.
A friend advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege-
J table Compound; I have taken five bottles, ynd think it is
/ L the best medicine I ever used. Now I can work, and feel
like m y se lf- I used to be troubled greatly with
my head, but I have had no bad headaches or palpi
/j< tation of the heart, womb trouble or bearing-down
* pains, since I commenced to take Mrs. Pinkham’s
V medicine. I gladly’■ecommend the Vegetable Com-
N'* pound to every suffering woman. The use of one
bottle will prove what it can do.”—Mrs. Lucy Peasley, Derby Center, Vt.
promptly, but never so much in awe of
her that they cannot confide tceir little
secrets and aspirations. Miss Nellie Om
berg has more boys—more boys than
will gather round a pack of fire crackers
on a Christmas eve’s night. And Mr.
Charlie Sodges sits in the center of a half
circle of little girls nearly the same age
as Miss Omberg’s boys and it is hard to
tell which class is the most attentive,
and which class grows the fastest.
And can any one guess how Mr.
Funkhouser was engaged while his
teachers were so busy? He stopped each
just a moment from her work and said,
.“Have you received any contribution
for the Pansy Christmas tree? 1 ’ Well,
all of the teachers had something to re
port, but there is not enough yet, and
the contribution box is still open—in
fact, each teacher has a large contribu
tion box and even the smallest offerings
will be thankfully received.

Ho w the Georgia Legislature Does Busi

A Macon gentleman who attended a
sitting of the Georgia Legislature a few
days ago submits the following, says the
Macon News:
‘•lt wculd be a perfectly safe wager to
make that of ten bills which are acted
upon by the lower house of the Georgia
Legislature, at least nine are enacted or
defeated with at least 9 per cent of the
electors outside of those directly interest
ed or those who have been members of the
committee to which the measure has been
referred.
Here follows a stenographic report of
the method of procedure in voting upon a
bill at a night session.

Then a number of gentlemen say, aye
or no as the case may be and Mr. Speaker
on the bill passed the ayes are 99; nays
nothing.
This bill having received the constitu

LIBERTY FOR LANCASTER?
The Man Convicted of Killing' Forgytli
May Not Serve Oat His Verin.
Atlanta, Dec. 14.—1 tis likely that
Wright Lancaster, a prominent citizen
and ex-sheriff of Macon, Ga., will be
pardoned out of the Ohio penitentiary
at an early day. He was convicted
along with Colonel Hall, an ex-member
of the legislature, and others of the
murder of Colonel John Forsyth and he
and Hall were given life sentences.
Hall died recently in the penitentiary.
Hiram P. McKuight, the famous law
yer convict, who has just been released
from the Ohio penitentiary, became in
terested in the case and concluded that
Lancaster could be gotten out of prison
by a habeas corpus route. He wrote to
Senator Bacon to secure his assistance
in the case and has just received an an
swer from that gentleman in which he
states that he has always been firmly of
the belief that Lancaster was innocent
of the crime alleged against him.
He further states that he will present
the application for a pardon before the
present session of congress, and if that
fails he thinks Lancaster can be gotten
out on habeas corpus proceedings.

Farmer Advises That the Use of Guano be
Discontinued Al tog e the i.
Editor of Thk Trtbunk:—
The question of buying guano is one
ot much importance tn the farmers of
this section. The guano sold in Rome
for year 1897 has been considerably
over {IOO,OOO and at the present price
of cotton, that would take one bale of
cotton out of every seven to pay for
the guano. So you see that it is a
terrible tax for the farmers to bear,
when it is in their power to do other
wise.
Every farmer, be he landlord or
tenant, could make compost enough
to go on cotton ground by working
one month during the winter, and
you all know that very little work is
done during the winter on the farms.
So if every one who pretends to farm
would spend one month, or about
that, in making compost, the SIOO,OOO
would be saved, or in other words we
make that amount.
The above amount only applies to
Rome’s territory. If the whole coun
try would adopt this plan millions
would be saved, or made, as you
please to call it,
I, for one, did not buy a pound of
guano, but on a four horse crop made
and used more than one hundred
wagon loads of compost this year,
and expect to do likewise next.
The farmers could build up their
lands by fall plowing, putting under
all stalKs, grass, weeds and other veg
etation, so as to allow tbe same to de
compose and feed the land.
Our lands have become poor from
tbe want of vegetation. Most farmers
wait until the spring of the year and
and then rake and burn the trash,
which acte on the same principle as
putting the horse in the stable and
failing to put in his feed.
Failing to feed land is the same as
failing to feed the horse.
Land must have vegetable feed. I
may have peculiar ideas about the
use of guano.’but I honestly believe
that land stimulated with guano acts
on the same principle as whiskey on a
man. That is, when tbe stim
ulant dies out, it causes the land to
become poorer and weaker.
I now think we farmers should call
a halt on buying guano, and, as it
were, give our lands the Keeley cure,
by giving vegetable feed in the shape
of compost, pea vines, &c. By so do
ing will save that one hundred thous
and dollars per annum and.make our
lands richer.
Much is being said in the papers
about cutting down the cotton acreage
which I think should be done by all
means. Give us less cotton and more
grain, sorghum, “hog and hominy,”
plenty and prosperity, and all will be
well. Farmer.
