P. P., Lippman’s Great Remedy, Saves a Man From Becoming a Cripple. Mr. Asa Airmens, a well-known citizen of Jacksonville, Florida, was afflicted by a terrible ulcer. Medical t-ikill seemed unavailing' in stopping the ravages of the terrible disease. The leg was swollen and intensely painful, as the ulcer had eaten its way down t<» the very bone. All medicines and treatments having failed to effect a cure, the doctors said the leg must come off. Just when it seemed that Mr. Ammons would become a disabled and a crippled man, he tried I’. P. P., Lippman's Great Remedy, and the re sult was wonderful. P. P. P. SAV?IS HIS LEG. “ Jacksonville, Fla., -July 1, 1895. Two years ago 1 had the worst ulcer on my leg 1 ever saw. It had eaten down to the bone, and my whole leg below my knee, and my foot was swollen and inflamed. The bone was swollen and painful, and discharged a most offensive matter. My physicians said I had necrosis of the bone, and my leg would have to come off. At this stage 1 commenced to take P. P. P. and to bathe my leg with hot eastile soap suds. It began to improve at ,once and healed rapidly, ami is to-day .a sound and useful leg. “ I think P. P. P., Lippman's Great Remedy, is all a man could ask for as a blood purifier, as 1 have known it to cure so nieterrible cases of blood poi soning in a remarkably short time. "ASA AMMONS.” TERRIBLE BLOOD POisON. The body covered with sores—two bottles of P. P. I’. made a positive and permanent cure. This is only one of many thousand similar eases. Catarrh yields at once to P. P. P. That smothered feeling at night, that heavy feeling in the day—can and should be removed ; P. P. P. will do it if you only give it a chance. Indigestion and constipation go hand in hand. Headaches and total loss of appetite are the results. Regulate yourself and tone up your stomach with P. P. P.

Dr. Talmsgo Deliver® a Vivid Discourse ; on the Splendora of Heaven. Which the • Mortal Mind Cannot Conceive—Problem* of Life and Mysteries of Providence. i (Copyright. IS9B, by American Press Asso- ! Washington, March 6—This discourse I of Dr. Talmage is one of mighty contrasts and the dininetts of earthly eyesight, as compared with the vividness of celestial ; eyesight, is illustrated. The test is I,Cor- ; inthlans xiii, 12.‘‘For now we see through a glass, darkly, but then face to face." The Bible is the most forceful and pun gent of books. While it has the sweetness ! of a mother's hush for human trouble, it basall the keenness of a sotmiter and the • crushing power of a lightning bolt. It ; portrays with more than a painter’s pow- | er, nt one stroke picturing a heavenly ; throne anda judgment conflagration. The 1 strings of this great harp are fingered by • all the splendors of the future, now sound- ! ing with the crackle of consuming worlds, i now thrilling with the joy of the everlast- I ing emancipated. It tells how one forbid- ; den tree in the garden blasted the earth ! with sickness and death, and how another ! tree, though leafless and bare, yet, plant d | on Calvary, .'-hall yield a fruit which shall ; more than antidote the poison of the oth er. It tells how the red, ripe clue’ers of God’s wrath were brought to the wine press, and Jesus trod tbeni out, and how. at last, all the golden chalices of heaven shall glow with the wine of that awful vintage. It dazzles the eye with an h.ze klel’s vision of wheel and wing and fire and whirlwind, and stoops down so low that it can put its lips to the ear of a dy-_ ing child and say, ‘‘Come up higher. ’’ And yet Paul, in my text, takes the re sponsibility of saying that it is only an in distinct mirror and that its mission shall l>e suspended. I think there may be one Bible in heaven, fastened to the throne. Just as now, in a museum, wo have a lamp exhumed from Horcrdaneuiu or Nineveh, and we look nt it with great in terest and say, ‘‘How poor a light ft must have! given compared with our modern lamps!” so I think that this Bible, which was a lamp to our feet in this world, may lie near tho throne of God, exciting our in terest to all eternity hy the contrast be tween its comparatively feeble light and the illumination of heaven. 'J.'bo Bible, now, is the seaffoldin’i to the rising tem ple, but when the building is done, there will be no use for the scaffolding. Finite Vision. Tho idea I shall develop today is, that i in this world our knowledge is oompara j tivcly dim and unsatisfactory, but never theless is introductory to grander and I more complete vision. This is eminently ! true in regard to our view of God. IVe ' bear so much about God that we conclude that we understand him. He is represent ed as having the tenderness of a father, the firmness of a judge, the majesty of a king j and tfeo love of a mother. We hear about: him, talk about him, write about him. Wo lisp his name In infancy, and it trem bles on the tongue of the dying octogena rian. Wo think that wo know very much about him. Take the attribute of mercy Do wo understand it? The Bible blossoms all over with that word—mercy. It speaks again r.nd again of the tender mercies of God; of the sure mercies; of the great mercies; of tho mercy that endureth for eve*’; of the multitude of his mercies. And yet I know that tip? views we have of this great Being are most indefinite, on 3 sided and incomplete. When, at d ath. the gatei shall fly open and we shall look directly upon him, how new ami surprising! We see upon canvas a picture of the morning We study tho cloud in tho sky, the dew upon the grass and the bus’ . ulman mi tho way to the field. Beautiful picture cf the morning! But wo rise at daybreak and go up on a hill to see for ourselves that which was represented to us. While wo look the mountains are transfigured. Tlio burnished gates of heaven swing open and shut, to let past a host of fiery splen dors. The clouds are all abloom, and bang pendent from arbors of alabaster and ame thyst. The waters make pathway of in laid pearl for the light to walk upon, and there is morning on the sea. The crags un cover their scarred visage, and there is morning among the mountains. Now you go homo and how tame your picture of the morning seems in contrast! Greater than that shall be the contrast between thb- Scriptural view of God ami that which we shall have when standing face to face This is a picture of tho morning that will be the morning itself. Christ’s Excellence. Again, my text is true of tho Saviour’s excellency. By imago and sweet rhythm of expression and startling antithesis. Christ is set forth—his love, his compas sion, his work, his life, his death, his resurrection. We are challenged to mcas ure it, to compute it, to weigh it. In the hour of our broken enthrallment we mount up into high experience of his love, and shout until the countenance glows and the blood, bounds, and the wnolo na turc is exhilarated, "I have found him!' And yet it is through a glass, darkly. We. seo not half of that compassionate face- We feel not half tho warmth of that loving heart. We wait for to lot us rush into his outspread arms. Then we shall be face to face. Not shadow then* but sub stance. Not hope then, but the fulfilling of all prefigurement. That will be a mag nificent unfolding. Tho rushing out in view of all hidden excellency, the coming I again of a long absent Jesus, to meet us, rags and in penury and death, but amidst a light ami pomp ami outbursting joy such as none but a glorified intelli gence could experience. Oh. to gazo full ppon the brow that was lacerated, upon th3 side that was pierced, upon the feet that were nailed ; to stand close up in tho presence of Ifim who prayed for us on the mountain, and thought of us by the sea, and agonized for us in the garden, ami died for us in horrible crucifixion; to feel of him, to embrace him, to take his hand, to kiss his feet, to run our fingers along the Sears of ancient suffering, to say “This is my Jesus! Ho gave himself for mo. I shall never leave his presence. I shall forever behold his glory. I shall eternally hejir his voice. Jesus, now I seo thee’ 1 hAb'd'J where the blood start ed, where the tears e>Jitro<d_- where the face was distorted. 1 have waited -or this hour. 1 shall never turn my back on thee. Iv more looking through imperfect glasses. No more studying thee in the darkness But as long as this throne stands and this everlasting river Hows, ami those garland ? bloom, and these arches of victory remain to greet home heaven’s conquerors, so long I shall sec thee. Jesus of my choidb, Jesus of toy song, Jesus of my triumph, forever ami forever, face to face!” The Puzzles of Life. The idea of the text is just as true when applied to Gcd's providence. Who bss noi. come to some pass in life thoroughly inex plicable? You say: “Whatdoes this mean? What is God going to do with me now? He tells me that all things work together for good. This does not look like it.” You continue to study the dispensation and. after awhile guess about what God weans. “He means to teach me this. I think he" ineftQS to teach me that. Perhaps it is to huntble my pride. Perhaps it is to inake me feel more dependent. Perhaps to teach me tho uncertainty of. life.” But after all it is only a guess—a locking through the glass, darkly. Tho Bible assures us there shall be a satisfactory unfolding. "What I do thou knowest not now, but thou shait know hereafter." You will know why God took to himself that only child. Next door there was a household of seven children. Why not take one from that group instead of your only one? Why i single out the dwelling in which there i was only ono heart beating responsive to yours? Why did God give you a child at all if he meant to take It away? Why till the cup of your gladness brimming if be meant to dash it down? Why allow all the tendrils of your heart to wind around that object and then, when every fiber of your own life seemed to be interlocked with the child’s life, with strong hand to tear you apart, until you fall, bleeding and crushed, your.dwelling desolate, your hopes blasted, your heart broken? Do you suppose that God will explain that? Yea. He will make it plainer than any inathe matical problem—as plain as that tvvp and two nfa's’e four. Tn the Tight of the tnrone you will see that it was right—all right " Just and true are ail thy ways, thou King of saints!” Here is a man who cannot get on in the world. He always seems to buy at the wrong time and to sell at the worst disad vantage. He tries this enterprise and fails; that business and is disappointed. The man next door to him has a lucrative trade, but he lacks customers.’ A new prospect opens. His income is increased. But that year his family are sick, and the profits are expended in trying to cure the ailments. He gets a discouraged look. Be comes faithless as to success. Begins to expect disasters. Others wait for some thing to turn up; he waits for it to turn down. Otters with only half as much education and character get on twice as well. He sometimes guesses as to what it all means. He says: “Perhaps riches would spoil-me. Perhaps poverty is nec essary to keep me humble. Perhaps I might, if things were otherwise, be tempt ed into dissipations.” But there is no complete solution of the mystery. He sees through a glass darkly and must wait for a higher unfolding. Will there be an planation? Yes; God will take that man in thfe light of the throne and say: “Child immortal, hear the explanation! You re member the failing of that great enter prise—your misfortune in 1857, your dis a ter in 1867. This is the explanation.” And you will answer, “It is all right.” . Mysteries cf Providence. I see, every day, profound mysteries of Providence. There is no question we ask oftener than Why? There aro hundreds of graves in Oak Hill and Greenwood and Latin I Hill that need to be explained. Hospitals fcr the blind and lamo, asylums for the idiotic and insane, almshouses for the destitute and a Yvorld of pain and mis fortune that demand more than human so lution. Ah, God will clear it all up. In the light that pours from the throne, no dark mystery can live. Things now utter ly inscrutable will be illumined as plainly as though the answer were written on the jasper wall or sounded in the temple an them. Bartimeus will thank God that he was blind, and Lazarus that ho was cover ed with sores, and Joseph that be was cast Into the pit, and Daniel that he denned with lions, and Paul that ho was hump backed, and David that he was driven from Jerusalem, and that sewing women that she could get only a few pence for m :king a garment, and that invalid that for 20 years he could not lift his head from the pillow, and that widow that she had such hard work to earn bread for her children. You know that in a song dif ferent. voices carry different parts. The sweet and overwhelming part of the halle luiah of heaven will not be carried by those who redo in high places and gave sumptuous entertainments, but pauper cliii'.L'. n will sing it, beggars will sing it, redeemed hod carriers will sing it, those who were onco the offseouring of earth will sing it. The halleluiah will be all the grander for earth’s weeping eyes and ach ing heads and exhausted hands and scourged backs and martyred agonies. Again, tho thought of the text is just when applied to the enjoyments of the righteous in heaven. I think we have but little idea of the number of tho righteous in heaven. Infidels say, “ Your heav.en will be a very small place compared with the world of the lost; for, according to your teaching, the majority of mon will be de stroyed.” I deny the charge.* I suppose that the multitude of the finally lost, as compared with the multitude of the finally saved, will boa handful. I suppose that the few sick people in tho hospital today, as compared With tho hundreds of thou sands of well people in tho city, would not bo smaller than the numbtr of those who shall be oast out in suffering, compared with those who shall have upon them the health of heaven. For wo are to remember that we arc. living in comparatively the beginning of the Christian dispensation and that this world is to bo populated and icdeemed and that ages of light and love are io flow on. If this be so, the multi Slides of the saved will be in vast majority A Countless Multitude. Take all the congregations that have today assembled for worship. Put their, together and they would make but a small audience compared with the thousands and tens of thousands and ten thousanc times ten thousand, and the hundred am ' forty and four thousand that shall stam around the throne. Those flashed up ti heaven in martyr fires, those tossed for many years upon the invalid couch,,those fought in the armies of liberty and rose as they foil, those tumbled from high scaffold Ings or slipped from tho mast or were washed off into the sea. They came up from Corinth', from Laodicea, from the Red sea bank and Gonnesaret’s wave, from Egyptian brickyards and Gideon’s thrashing floor. Those thousands of years ago slept the last sleep, and these are this moment having their eyes closed, and theii limbs stretched out for the sepulcher. A general expecting an attack from th< Snemy stands on a hill and looks througl a fieldglass and sges in the great distance multitudes approaching, but has no idei of their numbers. He says: “I cannot tel anything aboufrthem. I merely know tha there are a great number. ” And so John without attempting to count, says, “7 great multitude that no man can number.' We are told that heaven is a place c happiness, but what do we know abou happiness? Happiness in this world i only a half fledged thing—a flowery path with a serpent hissing across it; a broke; pitcher, from which the water has droppei before we could drink it; a thrill of* ex hilaration, followed by disastrous reac tions. To help us understand the joy o: heaven, the Bible takes us to a river. We stand on the grassy bank. We see tho wa tors flow on with ceaseless wave. But the filth of tho cities uro emptied into it, and the banks are torn, and unhealthy exhala tions spring up from it, and we fail to gel an idea of the river of life in heaven. The Reunions of Seaven. We get very imperfect ideas of the re uijions of heaven. We think of some festal day on elrth, when father and mother were yet living, and the children came home. A good time that! But it had this drawback—-all were not there. That brother went off to sea and never was heard from. That sister—did we not laj her away in the freshness of her young life, never jnoye in this world to look upor her? Ah, there was a skeleton at the feast, and tears miqgled with our laughter or that Christmas day. Not so with heaven’s reunions. It will bo an uninterrupted glad ness. Many a Christian parent will look ground and find all his children there. “All!” he says, '‘pap jt be possible that, we are all here —life’s perils over? Tho Jordan passed, and not one wanting? Why, ever the prodigal is here. I almost gave him up. How long he despite;] my counsels, but grace hath triumphed. Ail here, all here! Tell the mighty joy through the city. Let the bells ring, and the angels mention it in their song. Wave it from the top of the walls. All here!” No more breaking of heart-strings, but face to face. The orphans that were left poor and in a merciless world, kicked ano cuffed of many hardships, shall join their parents, over whose graves they so long wept and gaze into their glorified counte nar.ces forever, face to face. We may oome up from different parts of the world, one from the land and another from the depths of the sea; from lives affluent and prosper ous, or from scenes of ragged distress, but we shall all meet in rapture and jubilee, face to facre. Many of our friends have entered upon that joy. A few days ago they sat with us studying these gospel themes, but they only saw through a glass, darkly—now revelation' hath come. Your time will also come. God will not leave you floundering in the darkness. Yen stand wonder struck and amazed. You feel as<f ail the loveli ness of life were dashed out. You stand gazing into the open chasm of the grave. W-alt a little. In the prosnppe pf your de parted and of him who carries them in his bosom, ypn shall soon stand face to face. Oh, that our last hour way kindle up with this promised joy ! May we ire tjble to say, like the Christian not long ago, departing, “Though a pilgrim, walking through the valley, the mountain tops are gleaming ! from peak to peak!”, er, like niy dear friend and brother, AJfred Cookman, who took his flight to the throne of God, saying in his last moment that-which has already gone into Christian classics, “I am sweep ing through the pearly gate, washed in the blood of the Lamb!” MACON NEWS MONDAY EVENING, MARCH 7 1898. CUNNINGHAM OHM He Makes an Estimate on the Yield of Fruit This Year. TWO THOUSAND CARS. Something About the Work of the American Fruit Growers’ Union and Rates. Mr. John D. Cunningham, of Marietta, was in the city yesterday. John D. Cunnigham is net only the largest individual peach grower in Geor gia, but is also president of the American Furit Growers’ Union, with headquarters at Chicago. The outlook for the peach crop this sea son Colonel Cunningham thinks, is espe cially encouraging. “I am glad to say that the prospects for a heavy crop,” he said, “were never bet ter or brighter. The trees seem full of vitality and have more fruit buds on them than I have seen for years. The recent cold weather has retarded the blooming to such an extent that I do not believe they will be in full bloom before March 15. Os course we cannot consider the crop until as the middle of April, but the grow ers hope that we will have no damaging frosts in that month. You know there is an old saying that March blooms are never killed, especially when they bloom in the dark of the moon; this saying, however, I am sorry to say, is hot always true, but as a general rule, when peaches bloom late in March we have a crop. “Considering the fact that our last full crop amounted to 935 cars of peaches ac tually shipped, and the fact that since t.hen millions of young have reached bear ing age, I believe that we will ship not less than two thousand car loads of peach es and two hundred cars of grapes; as to melons and other fruits I am not so well posted, but it is estimated that six thous and cars of melons win be shipped. Esti mating the net sales of the peaches at only SSOO per car,-the . crop should bring one million dollars, the grapes not less tham one hundred thousand dollars, and the melones at SIOO per car, six hundred thousand dollars, a total for these three main kinds of fruit, of one million seven hundred thousand dollars. If the value of the pears, apples and large quantities of strawberries and small suits could be as certained and added*to the above, I believe that it would make a grand-total of not less than two millio<n dollars.s When it is considered that practically all this money comes from the north and west, coming in midsummer when everybody is hard up financially, business dull, and money scarce, you can appreciate what a great blessing a fruit crop is and that a failure of the crop is really a public ca lamity adding, as it does, such an im mense amount to the net circulating me lium and to the wealth of the state.” Speaking of the work of the American Fruit Growers’ Union, Mr. Cunningham said: “Improper distribution undoubtedly ’auses greater losses to fruit growers than ill other causes combined. I have known a difference of S2OO per car to exist in markets as near together as New York ind Philadelphia, in the sale of identically the same kind and grade of fruit. One market was overstocked, the other under nipplied. Often I have known good mar kets to be practically bare of peaches for two or three days, while other markets were glutted, then attracted by high quo tations in the bare market, an over-supply would be rushed into it and instead of get ting good prices, the glut would cause □rices to tumble until the grower got noth ing and a good market was ruined for a •veek or two. It is an easy thing to break t market down but a very difficult matter to get it up again. Generally nothing but a eessasion of shipments for several days will bring it back to where its prices would be with a full supply of fruit, had ■he market never been glutted. The won der is that with such a hap-hazzard sys tem of shipping in the dark and trusting o luck, all the southern fruit growers '□ave not been bankrupted; that they are .'airly prosperous speaks volumes for the possibilities of the business. If handled in i systematic and business like manner, vhile it cannot be said that the American Fruit Growers’ Union during the two years >f its existence, has succeeded in perfect ’y and evenly distributing the fruit crops, •et it has been signally successful in mak ng the distribution of shipments from those sections where the union handled he bulk of the crops near enough perfect to enable it to avoid glutted markets. It is manifestly impossible for the union* to make a perfect distribution of shipments from sections where the greater part of the crop is shipped dlscriminately and without system. The best we can do is to keep posted as to where these outside shipments are going and so direct the shipments of our members as to avoid such markets as they may be glutting. “Do you not fear an over-production of peaches here in Georgia?” “Thirty years ago last month my father planted the first commercial peach orchard ever set in Georgia. It consisted of 40 acres. I remember well how he was told that he wauld never be able to find .a market for such fruit, and ever since then I have hear the cry of over-production, ffeally I don't believe, with proper distri bution we are in much more danger of over-production than we were at that ime. Statistics show that in addition to he rapid increas? ip ou’r population, that □ur urban population is increasing at a /cry much more rapid rate. This in con ifction with the fact that hundreds of our ■larkcts have never received any Georgia 'caches, as well as the* fact that it has een shown that we can, when necessary, sport our peaches to Europe confirms me n my belief that every acre o! suitable land in our Georgia fruit belt could be -afely and profitably planted in peaches. You must remember that pature has prac tically given us’ a monopoly of the market for fine early peaches. They cannot be successfully grown anywhere in rhe United States any earlier, if as egrly, as |n Geor gia, and the sections that ean compete with us in the early kinds are very limit ed. “Will there be any reduction in the peach and grape rate from Georgia this season?” “I hope so, The principal reason given by the railroads heretofore for not giving us better rates and service to the eastern markets was that they claimed the vol ume of business was not sufficient to au thorize them in making fast schedules at less rates than are now in effect, and as soon as the fruit crop is assured we pro pose to make careful estimates of the crop and sybnijt ehm. with evidence that the eastern rates are- too high, to the rqte committee of the associated roads and 1 have strong hones that they will grant a material reduction. “M e are not complaining about the rates or service to the western markers. Not only is the rate per mile much cheaper than to the eats:, byt the service much better than to the east.” CASTOR! A For Infants and Children AN OPEN LETTER To MOTHERS.
