FATAL OVERSIGHT.
A Brief Narrative Showing the Danger
of a Lapse of Mentality.
The discussion hud turned upon that
peculiar condition of a person’s mind
which will not warn him when he is
doing or about to do something that can
only result disastrously, or, in less se
rious cases, which will make him ap
pear silly to the very verge of insanity—
as, for instance, when a person goes to
see a friend at a house when he knows
the person has not lived there for
weeks, or he will go to a bank on a hol
iday without ever thinking of the holi
day till ho finds the doer shut.
“Which reminds me, ” said a war de
partment clerk, “of a page out of li I
story of my life when I was doina busi
ness for myself, and before politics j
mined me-and drove mo into the gov I
eminent service. I had an acquaintance
in a bucket shop who made a lot of
money, mostly by skinning people, and
I used to tell him to look out or some of ;
them would fix him some time in a way j
he didn’t like, hut would stop him .off \
insrftio same. To this ho replit d with :
imugb, but one morning when I went j
to my oflico I noticed that the glass in
his door was broken, and it excited my I
suspicion, as ho and 1 were the only oc
cupants at that time of the floor, which
was ten stories up. The door was open,
and I saw my neighbor sitting at his
desk dead and a hole in his head which
might have been made with a pick.
“It was murder, of course, but it was
not robbery, for nothing was disturbed,
and I felt that my prediction had come
true. There was no clew, however, and
though 'the police made every effort,
nothing could bo discovered to show
who had donu the deed. The victim’s
brother had taken his papers from the
desk the morning of the murder, and
they had not been examined for three
days. On the fourth day the brother
showed up, with a will inado by his
brother and dated the day of the mur
der. The will was brief, making the
brother the sole legatee, and, strangely
enough, it bore the name as witness of
a man who hud been ruined by the dead
man. As soon as I saw tho signature I
took an officer and went to tho witness’
house, where wo found him. I had got
the officer up to the proper pitch by my
talk on the way there, and as soon as
the man appeared in the room where
Weavero tho officer arrested him for the
tjjfnrder of the broker. It was a bluff,
but it worked, and the man broko down
and confessed the whole thing. Then he
seemed to be easier in his mind, unci he
wanted to know how we suspected him.
I showed him the will, with his signa
ture as witness, and his surprise was
genuine when he threw up his hands
and for the first time realized what he
had done by putting it there.
“I asked him how it happened, and
he told us that he had gone to tho bro
ker’s office late at night, as ho had done
on other occasions, when no one was
about, and had tried to get him to let
him have back part of the money ho
had lost, but the man taunted him, and
it had crazed him, and ho caught up a
' miner’s pick and was about to brain
him with it when tho broker, to gain
time or a chance to escape, had asked
him to let him make his will before he
died, and, just to humor him, he had
done so. Then the broker told him that
it was not legal unless witnessed and
asked him to witness it. There the
strange part of the whole thing came
in, for, without ever thinking what the
result would be, and having only in
mind the humoring of tho victim, he
had written his full name. And, even
stranger, ho had never thought of it un
til I showed him the will,
v “All of which was fully exhibited at
ithe trial, and the mun was acquitted^ou
the grounds of emotional insanity.

J li" fugitive had ridi and influential j
tncuils m his native state, and they iu-
torcoded with the governor until he re-1

official correspondence followed. Prom
inent, men in .South Carolina told tho |
governor that ho had not been treated
with proper official courtesy by tho gov
ernor of North Carolina. The result
iis fhat the South Carolina governor,
accompanied by a largo party of friends
and advisers, journeyed by stage to
Raleigh for a conference with the gov
ernor about the matter of giving up tho
criminal. Tho governor of North Caro
lina, with a large party of distinguished
friends, met the governor of South
Carolina and his party several miles
from town and escorted them to the
governor’s mansion with all tho cere
mony duo such distinguished visitors.
Before the object of his visit was stated
the entire assemblage sat down to an
elaborate dinnei'. After dinner wine
was served, and after wine came brandy
—the applejack for which tho Old North
State is famous.
After many rounds of drinks the de
canters and glasses were removed, and
the governor of South Carolina stated
the object of his visit. He demanded
the surrender of tho fugitive criminal.
The governor of North Carolina re
fused. Then followed a long and beat-r

general of the two states took an active
part. Finally the governor of South
Carolina grew angry, and, rising to his
feet, said
Blood Taint.
Here is a case of inherited blood taint
which resulted in what threatened to lie
a complete wreck of an innocent young
i life. Tlie most serious feature of being
afflicted with a blood disease is the fact
that innocent posterity must suffer. The
man or woman witli the slightest taint
in tlie blood forces the undesirable leg-
• acy of impurity upon their children
whose veins flow witli the impure iuher-
] itance which handicaps them in the race
: of life.
i No child who liar, a trace of bad blood
| can be healthy or strong, and those pre
disposed to Scrofula are liable to a great
! deal of sickness, because their constitu
tions are weak and cannot withstand tlie
many dangers which beset the path of
; childhood. Medical statistics show that
a majority of lung troubles result directly
from Scrofula, so that a child afflicted
with this disease is likely to full a vic
tim to dreaded consumption.
’ Mr. W. A. Clayton, of Addie, N. C.,
believes S.S.S. is the only blood remedy loped off, intending to return later to
which can have any effect whatever
upon obstinate cases. lie says :
“ My three-year-old boy had the worst

was given many blood remedies without
relief, and treated by the best doctors,
He seemed to get worse all the while,
however, and the disease finally resulted
in curvature of the spine, making him
utterly helpless.
“ The bad sores on his neck increased
“Sir, yon have refused my instant in size, and were a source of constant

I All eyes were turned on the governor

for two years, when some one recom
mended S.S.S., stating that it had cured
some of the worst cases of blood disease^,

get better, and in eight days were com

governor rose slowly to his feet and
beckoned to a servant who stood some
distance away. His beckoning was firm j
and dignified, as became his position. I
He was slow about answering, and j
again the governor of South Carolina j
demanded, “What do you say?”
“I say, governor, that it’s a long time |

Tho reply restored good humor. De- ;

Make the Most of Yourself.
It is the duty of every man to make
the most of himself. Whatever his
capacities may be, ho is sure to fiDd
some place where he can be useful to
himself and to others. But he cannot
reach his highest usefulness without
pure blood. The blood circulates to
every organ and tissue and when it is
pure, rich and healthy it carries health
to the entire system, but if it is impure
it scattered disease wherover it flows.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla is the one true
hiood purifier. It cures salt rheum,
scrofula, catarrah, dyspepsia and
rheumatism because these diseases
have their orgin in tue blood.
The value of advertising depends on
three things—reaching the proper
people, reaching all of them rally, and
reaching them in the proper wav. In
these bustling times business must be
sought after with up-to-date methods.
The time is past when a merchant is
willing or can afford to sit in the back
part of his store and wait for custom
ers to seek him out. Large stocks are
now moved in an incredibly short
space of time, and many merchants
make it a point to clean out and fill
ud with fresh new goods at least once
a vear. In olden times big clearance
sales were unheard of; now they oc
cur two or three times a year in mod

Escaped In a Flour Hack.
Sir John Waters, says the author of
“English Eccentrics,” was the most
admirable spy over attached to an army.
In tho peninsular war ho gave Lord
Wellington the most accurate and valu
able information about, tho Bpuniurds
and their movements. On one occasion
lie was tuki n prisoner by a company of
Spanish dragoons while still elad in
the English uniform. Ho was supposed
to ho a stupid Britisher who could not
understand a word of French or Span
ish, uud biu captors conversed freely be
fore him.
lie learned from his guards while
riding between them that they were go
ing to kill and rob him at un old mill
where tho company v.ms to stop for din
ner. They would pretend that they shot
him because of his attolnpt to escape.
On reaching tlie mill the dragoons
dismounted and went into the house,
leaving their prisoner outside in the
j hope that, he would attempt to esoape.
The instant, they were out of sight
| Waters throw bis cloak upon a neigh-
| boring olive bush and mounted his
I cocked hut on top. Some empty flour
sacks Jay on the ground, and into one
J of them he crawled. A moment later
| tlie dragoons came out, fired their cur-
! bines at tlie supposed prisoner and gal-
| *
rifle tlie body,
i A horse, loaded with sacks of flour,
j stood near tlie door, and Sir John, still
| enveloped in the sack, managed to
throw himself on the horse's back, as
if ho were pxrt of the load. The owner
at length came out, mounted and rode
away, without detecting the peculiar
contents of one of the sacks.
When far enough away for safety, Wa
ters,finding his position most uncomfort
able, managed to free himself from the
sack and sat up. Tho horseman, chanc
ing to look around, beheld the man
covered with flour and took him to be a
ghost perched behind him. Terrified at
the sight, he fell over in a swoon, uud
the supposed ghost thrust him to the
ground and galloped off.
Sir John reached the English camp
without further adventure and was
warmly greeted by Wellington.
Although a very busy man, Dr. R.
V. Pierce, of Buffalo. N. Y., has found
time in which to write a great, book of
over a thousand pages entitled, The
People’s Common Sense Medical Ad
viser, in Plain English, or Medicine
simplified. Few books printed in the
English language have reached so
great a sale as has this popular work,
over 080,000 copies having been sold at
81 00 each, The profits on this enor
mous sale having repaid ita author
for the great amount ol' labor and
money expended on its production he
has now decided to give away, abso
lutely free, 500,000 copies of this val
uable book, the recipient only being j
required to mail to the World’s Dis
pensary Medical Association, of Buf- .
faio, N. Y„ of which company he is j
president, twenty-one (21) one-cent
stamps, to cover scat of mailing only,
and the book will ue sent postpaid.
It is a vetitable medical libraary,
complete in one volume. It contains
1008 large pages, and over 300 illustra
tions, some of tneni in colors. The
Free Edition is precisely the same as
that sold at 81.50 except only that tho
books are bound in strong manilla pa
per covers, instead of clotb. It is not
often that our readers have an oppor
tunity to obtain a valuable book on
such generous terms, and wo predict
that few will miss availing themselves
of the unuai and liberal ofier to which
we have called their attention.
