pying most ot the time in denouncing

asm and effected no change ol public

truths, showing that the doctor presumed
upon the ignorance of the audience to
mislead them. Dr. Felton declared that

FIRE THIS MORNING.
A IS-Story Frame Building Entirely
God u mod.
About •’! o’clock this morning an alarm
was turned in from box 23, Central rail
road passenger depot, caused by the dis
covery of fire in the house on the south
west corner of West Boundary and Rail
road streets, occupied by a man named
K. Cohen as a dry goods and second-hand
clothing store. The fire burned with
great rapidity, and the entire structure
was soon enveloped in flames. Great
danger Mas apprehended for the sur
rounding property, and additional appa
ratus was summoned to the scene.
When the reporter left the house had
been entirely consumed. The building
was owned by Mr. J. J. Butler, who was
at one time engaged in the wood business
In Savannah, but is now a resident of
Bryan county. It was impossible to
learn whether the property was insured
or not.
THE DEADLY UMBRELLA.
Need ofa National Training School
for American Women.
From the N&us Or learn Statee.
A female crank in Boston wants to es
tablish a school to teach women art, and
to that end she is writing letters to the
newspapers calling on the people to sub
scribe money at once. Without wishing
to be considered as antagonistic to the
intellectual advancement of women, we
must boldly announce that we cannot
give the scheme our support, for the rea
son there are a great many things that a
woman stands more in need ol knowing
than how to paint long-legged butterflies
on window shades and yellow crockery.
If an effort is made to found a school for
the purpose of teaching the suiter sex
how to carry an umbrella on the street,
we will remove the surcingle which en
c rules onr plethoric! pocket-book and
deposit 50 cents in the contribution box
without betraying a single tremor of ex
citement.
A woman wants to know this. Ever
since the umbrella was inveuted she has
filled the soul of man with terror every
time sbeappeared on a crowded thorough
fare with one of the dangerous weapons
in her bands. She holds an umbrella di
rectly in front of her, and charges a
crowd with the cool daring of a Richard
Cieur do Lion, and when she dashes
through it her wake fs strewn with crum
pled bats, dismantled ears and punctured
eyes. Never has she been known to turn
her umbrella either to one side or the
other in order to afford some unfortunate
head an opportunity to dodge it, but on
the contrary, it points straight ahead
like a couched lance, hurls everything to
the ground that blocks its way, and the
Hospital wagon follows after it and picks
up the wounded.
A training school m which women are
taught how to steer an umbrella along a
sidewalk would l*e a great blessing to
this country, and the truitsot its teach
ing would be shown by the rapid decrease
of the number of one-eyed men and the
general decline of the trade in glass optics
and celluloid ears.
The government has in the interest of
humanity established commissions to dis
cover ami stamp out. the germs of pesti
lential diseases and now it should come
forward and do something to help the peo
ple escaoe the fangs of the deadly ging
ham umbrella. There is no good reason
why it should not take a lively interest,
in this matter, and establish a national
training school for women and teach them
to handle the parasol or umbrella, not as
an engiue of war, but as a protection
against the elements.
If the scheme is properly laid before
Congress an appropriation will surely tie
secured, for the reason that the govern
ment cannot afford to grant the people
protection against danger in one form and
refuse it in another. If Congress sees fit.
the scope of the National Training school
for women can be extended to teach the
future mothers of the Republic bow to
place a patch on the ground floor of a pair
of breeches so'hat it will not look as it it
was the handiwork ot a tinner and had
been spread on with a soldering Iron.
We do not want any more art schools.
There are already too many of them. What
we need is a training school, and we are
willing to increase our original subscrip
tion to a dollar right now.
Sam Jones on Houls.
From the Baltimore Sun ( I’em.)
‘“Be maketh me to lie down in green
pastures’; not out yonder on the rocks
where the wolves can get me, but in green
pastures. When I get enough 1 can lie
down and go to sleep, and then get up
again and eat; or I neeun’t get up. 1 can
eat here while lying down.” said Rev. Sam
Jones in his sermon Monday evening. “I
can get all I want. 'lie ieadetb me be
side tbe still waters.’ David changes It
a little and says, ‘He restoreih mv
soul.’ Did you ever notice the similaiity
between mau and sheep? In the first
place the sheep has the hardest head, - and
so has man. If I wanted to kill a sheep,
I wouldn't shoot him In the lace or bead.
Another thing. He goes astray and gets
lost, and is the biggest fool you ever saw.
[Laughter.] Ain't it so? And when you
call him he runs nnotber wav. Just so
with men. They get astray aud are prey
to tbe wolves, it is tho soul that makes
tbe man, not the body. It is not weight,
like some Western beet you can buy for
ten cents a pound, anil I don’t think some
of you, if you were put on the scales,
would bring that much. Wedon’l go by
avoirdupois in this world. Home men
weigh two hundred pounds and over, and
it you thrust your hand in his bosom yotj
couldn’t find anything big enough to hold.
A man once wanted to know whv minis
ters didn’t live on souls, and Hpur
geon said, ‘Why, it would take fifty like
yours to make uitn a breakfast. ’ Some
people go by the signs of tbe nose, ami
sav it denotes intellect, the feet mathe
matical knowledge, aud the mouth, us
well as tbe other partial the face, certain
things. Tho ears, they smv, show signs
ol generosity, and 1 only wish that some
man would invent some ear fertilizer and
put them to growing. [Laughter.] We
need It badly. 1 don't care for these
things, but 1 like u big soul, a soul ns high
as the shoulder of God, and as broad as
the universe. 1 like that. Take a woman.
She dresses the bouy to perfection; primps
to perfection, and seems perfection; but
wha' is, sisters? Nothing more thau a
scaffold like the workmen put outside of
the building to put the walls up. Home
men even go so lar as to put the plaster
ing ou the scaffold. There is too inueb of
it, sisters. Let’s have less adornment,
and put more on the inside. 1 once hud
occasion to visit a sick woman, aim 1
think she Is the only thing God made to
endure suffering. Everything tvas Indls
ordi-r, lie- husband was wnrrh and. and vic
tuals were just thrown on the table. 1
said, ‘There's the saddest borne I ever
saw.’ About three months aiterwsrd I
had occasion lo g<> there again. be had
recoveied,and ever> thing was In order,
and then I said. * I'iiere s the happiest
home . svarsaw.’ That woman had her
soul restored. ix>ok here, sisters, if you
take that, soulot yours and get it restored
you will bi.ve a happy home. Yea, and II
sotneoi you did that, your husband would
eall in lbn nsigbbois to identity you.
Bueb a woman might answer to llie uame
of Hallv, n>'t like Sally, but It don’t look
like her. That would be the decision of
tbe husband.

HORSFORD’S ACID PHOSPHATE
Produces Sweet and Natural Sleep.
Dr. C. R. Dake, Belleville, 111., says: “I
found it, and it aloue, to produce sweet
and natural sleep In cases of wakefulness
caused by overwork of the brain, which
orten occurs with active professional and
business men.
A Good Suggestion
is contained in anotder column of this is
sue. It is to the effect that as every train
on the Savannah, Florida and Western
railway is compelled by law to stop at tbe
crossing of the City and Suburban rail
way, that a station for the disembarking
of passengers should be made there. With
the street cars running to that point, pas
sengers living in the western part of town
could save time by getting off at this sta
tion rather than going around to the Lib
erty street depot.
This should be done, and doubtless will
be done. Lots in this vicinity should be
very desirabje, and a few will be sold at
the court house next Tuesday by C. H.
Dorse tt.

Advice to Mothers.
Mrs, Winslow’s Soothing Syrup should
aiwavsbe used when children are cutting
teeth. It relieves the little sufferer at
once; it produces natural, quiet sleep by
relieving the child from pain, and the
little cherub awakes as ‘-bright as a
butt n.” It is very pleasant to taste. It
soot es tbe child, softens the gums, al
lays all palD, relieves wind, regulates the
bowels, and is the best known remedy for
diarrhoea, whether arising from teething
or otb§T causes. 25 cen ts a bottle.
We have on hand a few broken sizes of gen
uine h&nd-sewed low-quarters, the regular
price of which was $5 75. Any gentleman
who can get his size in this lot will get a bar
