Out in Kansas
lives a happy wife. She writes: “ I
have used Mother**» Friend before
two confinements. The last time I had
twins, and was in labor only a few min
utes. Suffered very little.” The reason
why
Mother’s Friend
does expectant mothers so much
good is because it is an external liniment,
to be applied upon the outside, where
much of the strain comes. It helps be
cause tiic pores of the skin readily absorb
it, and it comes into direct contact with
and is absorbed by the parts involved.
Mornin" sickness is quickly banished,
and nervousness is kept completely away.
The sense of dread and foreboding is not
experienced, even during labor itself.
Confinement is short and almost without
pain. Recovery is quick and sure. Best
of all, Mother's Friend benefits the
unborn just as much as the expectant
mother, and when the little one conies it
will be strong, lusty and healthy.

THUE JO JOST
Rev. Sam. P. Jones Preached
at Mulberry Street Meth
odist Church. .
HE 'JUST TO TOUR WIFE.
Tells How He Was Cured of Being
Cross and Unkind to His- Rev.
Sam Small
The tent was too wet for the Rev. Sam
| Jones last night and he took to the chiurch,
i but at any rate his congregation followed
h..u and tilled old .Mulberry to the doors
ami ou! into the corridors.
Mr. Jones opened his address for the
evening with a reference to some editorial
comments on the position of the Macon
lie* on the prohibition campaign.
He handled them lightly and good huanor
edly, however, and passed on to bis text
which was takwn from the Bible verse ad
vising mtn to cleave to 'whatsoever is
honest and pure, true, and just and of good
report.
.Many preachers, he said, preach what
they think, while others think what they
preach. He was called a curious 'fellow
because he preached what he thought and
his tongue was faithful to his mind.
Soms p. yo.; did 110 L like his methods*,
but he rfft there just the same.
At one time when he was a pastor of a
church there was one fellow in his congre
gation whom the former ipaator had tried
to convert for many years. One day Mr.
Jones picked him out in the congregation,
and pointing to him said “You old sinner
1 know you. You hired a 'woman to .pick
blackberries for you for two weeks and
paid tier with twenty pounds of sjXJiled
Hour and now you come to church. I 'would
as soon see you in heaven as the devil
himself. The man went out and vowed
that lie was going to whip Jones. But
'that night he sent the old woman her
twenty 'pounds of good Hour and <wh.-n I
left that church tie was as good a fniend
as I had in that section.
“J just shot into the hole that he was
in. You know that if you shoot into
the 'hole that a fellow is in he will crtvwl
out and say that he warnt there but to
-ave his life he can’t explain how the boles
came in his hide.
"Be honest with yourself and with your
community. That you pay your debts does
not mean necessarily that you are honest.
They've got you tied so hard and faat that
you can't get away and you've got to pay
c«in. I like a fellow iwho ean stand with
out hitching. I like a man whose word is
as good as his bond. ,A man can't hy
pothecate his church membership in this
town or in any other 'town. You go to a
bank to borrow money. They ask you
what you have got as collateral and you
will tell them that you have your mem
bershhip in the Baptist church. They’ll
say, Oh, shucks, that don’t go. Just come
in here and I'll show you the members of
the Baptist church 'who have gone iback
on us. 'And so it is with the (Methodist
and the Presbyterian and the Episcopal
church. 1 want <0 see the time come when
a man can hypothecate his membership in
the .Methodist church as collateral.
"It's got so you don’t know who to
trust. Here conies the little farmer to the
merchant and says: ‘Kin you run me for
this year?’ ‘Yes,’ and about the first of
December tihe little farmer is going lit at"
a mile a minute and the merchant after
him.
“It reminds of the rabbit that gets out
iu the open and says to the dog ‘say, will
you just run me for a mile or two.’
“Now give me the man that is 'honest
with himself and honest with his God and
honest with his community.
“Is whisky honest? I go down here to a
saloon and give the barkeeper a dollar for
a quart and I drink it and go home. Have
I had value for value? Say bud, what
would you give for it?
“1 didn't say that the man who sells
whisky would steal but I just say what
my wife's husband would do the under
the like circumstances.
"Why. the whisky men say to me, ‘Mr.
Jones. I know that it is a dirty business,
but. I can’t make a living in any other
way and and I say to him that I would
rather commit suicide than say that I
couldn’t make a living other than iby sell
ing whisky, and 1 ain't going to commit
suicide. No siree. I’ll never go out at the
back door. I'm a going on living until I
die a natural death or someone kills me.
“I was on the train -with a man one night
who had the morphine in his pocket and
said that he was going to kill himself.
“1 said to him. you go ahead bud and
take it and you won't be frying in hell
for three minutes before you say, Oh Lord
if you'll just let me get back again I’ll
never do the like again.
“Everything that is just. It is easier to
be generous than it is to be just. Its
the hardest thing in the world to be just.
"Is it just to go down here and put a
vote in the box that will perpetrate the
saloons of this city and make your neigh
bor's boy drunk?
“Is that just? Get up you old red nose
and talk back. Is it just?
“Did you ever try to be just to your
wife? And if there is anj’ one on earth to
whom you should be just it is your wife,
but 1 tel! you that there is not one man in
a hundred who is just to his wife. I've had
some experience in that line myself and
I never was unjust to my wife that I
didn't feel like a dog and I felt natural
too.
“I say that you can't justify a harsh
word or an unkind expression that you
ever used to yx>ur wife,
“And. look at the way you treat your
wife about money. You pay your cook
cheerfully and when your wife asks for
$lO you frown at her and ask her what she
want with so much mopey,
“I tell you that if every hog in Georgia
went to growing bristles hair mattresses
■would go down five cents a pound.
“I divide up with my wife. Half of
everything I have is hers and in her name
and her name at the banks is as good as
mine. I won't be an agent and I don’t
board with my wife.
"But I tell you that there is many a
dirty dog who hides his property under his
I wife's petticoats and goes out driving with
her in her carriage while the widow woman
| to whom he owes money la walking the
I streets with her toes out of her shoes. If
hell hasn’t burned out before that rnntj
dies then he will be frizzling there after
I he goes away from this earth.
“If a man and his wife ain’t one they’re
I two .and if they are two there's the devil
' to pay in that family.
"You are good to your cook and its right
to be good to your cook I tell you I loved
the first cook I ever had. I used to go out
in the kitchen and hug and kiss her and
we had a good time together—but my wife
was doing the cooking at that. time.
“Be just to your children. The man who
will be domineering over his children and
his poor pale wife is a cowardly dog. The
man who will fuss with his wife is a dog
and if she fusses with him she's the other
one.
"Be just to your children. So hejp me
God I would rather blow my brains out
than cast a vote that might make a
drunkard of my boy and send him stag
gering down the dark corridors of hell to
everlasting death. The man who will cast
such a vote deserves that his son should
die a drunkard for it were better his eon
than another’s.
“They find fault with roe and say that
tny illustrations are not elegant. I know
it. But they illustrate just the same. The
thinnest skinned thing on earth is an edi-
tor and a preacher. They are always
criticising others but they can’t stand it
themselves. But I ean, my hide is -•> thick
as a buffalo's and when these little gnats
and flies light on me -they affect me like
I a bob-tailed yearling in fly time.
. "Yes you get up in the morning and are
j crosa with your wife and with the ehhil
dren and you put it down to dyspepsia.
Oh! what a heap of devilment is done in
the name of dyspepsia and Democracy. The
preachers do it. I used to think that a
I preacher had wings but bless you I've
seen ’em without their coats on and they
ain't got no wings.
“Hear me! I was cured of fussing with
my wife long ago. 1 saw the life that was
all the world to me swing like a pendulum
back and forth for seven long weeks. One
Christmas eve the saddest day of my life,
the doctor called me out on the porch and
.-aid: 'Jones, your wife has gone where
I materia medica cannot reach her. Call
your children to her. Don’t let them make
a noise. And I called them and they
stood beside that bed three on one side
and three on the other. They gazed with
' .me on the shrunken features and the half
unconscious glare of the eyes of the
mother that they loved, then wiping away
the big tears that rolled down their cheeks
they turned their backs and went out. As
I looked upon that wan face I saw every
cross and unkind word that I had ever
spoken written in raised letters on the
palid cheeks and I promised my God that
if he would but spare her to me I would
never say another harsh word to her.
"Hear me, you soldier boys. Are you just
to the mother at home? If you were
there would be no need for those sentinels
in front of the saloon doors. No, there
would’ht boys, sure as you are 'born. My,
what a rfdght those sentinels are to me. It
looks like the soldiers had said, 'We’ve
licked Spain JX>w and we’ll turn and lick
ourselves.’
“Boys, its so unjust to that precious old
mother at home. If my mother were the
keeper of a house of shame I wouldn't do
it, boys, and that mother of yours Is as pre
cious as an angel. There’s something about
a mother’s voice that is as sweet as the
aeolian harp, something about her touch
that is more soothing than the zephyrs
put in motion by an angel’s wings. It is
unjust to mother to do anything when you
are away from her that would bring sad
ness to her eyes if she could but see you.
“Isn’t it horrible to think of the man who
swills liquor and goes home where his
child can't kiss him without smelling the
fumes of the distillery on his ’breath. You
ought to be killed right now. I tell you if
you had the willow wicker round you and
a handle they could carry you about a
great deal (better than you can navigate
yourself.
“Whatsover things are pure.
"An old woman once said of me ‘I tell
you I like brother Jones. His heart’s all
right, but oh Lord, what a mouth.
“(But I like the man whose heart's all
right.
“1 was preaching up here In Madison
one time and a man came to me and eaid,
Brother Jones so and so says he won’t
come to hear you any more, he says you’re
too vulgar.
"Is that so, says I, who is he.
“Well, he’s a saloon keeper.
“(Hear me, to the pure all things are
pure. Thousands of the beet and purest
and sweetest women in America have come
to hear me and have come again. But .the
saloon keeper won’t come.
“Listen, it's not what I say but what
is in you that hurts. Half a million of the
•best .women in this country have come to
me and has given me their hands, but a
whole lot of society folks go away and say
they can't stand me no how. I don’t
mind. I haven’t much use for them any
how.
“The old-card-playing sister runs away,
but the poor folks come to me and hear
me. The society girl who has just left the
german where she was whirled in the arms
of the leacherous dude goes away and' says
she cannot bear to hear me talk, but the
girl who has not been to the german who
has never been clasped in the arms of the
leacherous dude will come to hear me and
■will stay.
“Hear me, Bam Jones never said a thing
in Macon as vulgar as the decolette dress.
“I was in a fellow’® parlor once that
smelled horrible. Said 1,, ‘What is that
stink?’
He replied, ‘Oh it's a hog that died in
the lot, but you mustn’t talk about it here.
“ 'lf you’ll move the hog” said I, ‘I
won’t 'talk about it.’
“And that's just how it is. ‘You fellows
in Macon must move the pig if you want
me 'to stop talking about it.’
“There’s nothing half so sweet as the
love of a pure woman. The two pillars of
a woman are modesty and ipurity. Take
away either or both of them and she falls
and you can’t get her back again and if
there is anything that is vulgar and nasty
it is Macon liquor. If you don’t think so
hear the men talk who drink it. Why a
hog pen is a hottie of new mown hay be
side it.
“If you can stand fifty-eight Macon sa
loons you can stand one Sam Jones.
“Oh girls, girls, girls. Silly little things
most of them. It’s the breaches that catch
’em. They may be doing anything but
just let a pair of breaches come along and
they will leave it to meet the breaches.
“But I say that a woman should be as
careful who she walks with as a man. He
will not be seen with a woman of
disrepute and yet you girls will walk
the streets with a man who is known to
be of bad reputation and you know of it.’’
The address was followed by a great
handshaking after which Rev. Sam Small
asked permission to say a few words.
He said that it had been reported to
him that he had been charged with going
into Putzel’s saloon to eat a meal and take
a drink of beer. Such an untruth is was
really unnecessary for him to deny but he
wished to state the cause that had given
origin to the story. The day that his regi
ment arrived in 'Macon the officers were
unable to get anything to eat and as it
was Sunday Putzel’s restaurant was the
only place where he could get what he
wanted for them to eat and he had order
ed some cooking done and sent out to the
grounds. The following day he had called
and had paid for the service .
He only wished to add that the [people
of Macon should abolish a place where a
gentleman and an officer could not go into
and get a meal without having his char
acter smirched.
This morning at the church Re.-. Francis
Murphy preached again to a large congre
gation and tonight a meeting especially
for the negroes will be held though half
of the big tent will, weather permitting,
be reserved for the whites.

PURCHASE OF ANCESTORS.
Neither a Difficult Nor an Eipealive
Operation In t'Hi'lnn.
Persons an> constantly calling at the
heralds’ college in Queen Victoria street
in quest of coats of a-nis or ancestors. In
l addition to that ancient oak paneled hall
there are shops in the streets of London,
gay with heraldic devices and marvelous
mediaeval birds and beasts, where pedi
grees can be purchased /tnd shields pro
cured, with supporters, quarterings, crest
and motto complete.
When W. S. Gilbert playfully alluded to
"ancestors by purchase,” he probably did
not realize that he was making a smart
hit at the traffic in crests and shields.
This Is how it is done: A clerk keeps a
kind of stock reference book, giving the
names of various county families and par
ticulars of their heraldic bearings.
“Your name and place of residence,
please, ’’ says the clerk.
“Brown of Camberwell,” or "Jones of
Wardour street,” or “Smith of Mile End,”
replies the applicant.
“Ah, yes; Wardour street is in Middle
sex Jones of Middlesex. Oh, here it is,
a lovely arms too! Azure, three balls of
Lombardy or crest, an empty purse, vert;
mottoes, ‘L’empire, e’est la paix,’ and
‘Keep off the grass.’ ”
“Think I’ve a perfect right to it?” asks
Jones of Middlesex, with an assumed care
less r ess.
“Oh, most decidedly!” replies the clerk.
“We’ll make you a lovely sketch of it.
Only 3s. fid., that’s all. Thank you, sir.”
"Nobody ean touch me for wearing it?"
pursues Jones, with a growing fear of ar
rest for petty larceny.
“Nobody at all,” says the shopman.
“Pay the annual tax for bearing arms,
and nobody can touch you.”
That is correct. On the principle of the
great Mackford Squeers, that a man may
call his house an island if he pleases, there
being "no law ag ! in it,” so a man may
call certain arms his own and apply the
same decoration of his note pajier, signet
ring and wheelbarrow. So that some em
inently respectable heraldry, originally
granted perhaps tor some desperate valor
amid the steel clash of Cressy or the ar
rowy showers of Agincourt, is passed off
in thia matter of fact age for a miserable
Bs. fid. to "Jones of Middlesex.”
But the college of heralds is the only
place in the British empire which can
grant a man arms by royal letters patent.
It cost Colojiol Shipway £683 to obtain
arms and ancestors that did not belong to
him or his family. At the college of
heralds the extreme expense of a genuine
coat is just, one-ninth of that sum. Seven
ty six pounds ten shillings is the highest
fee the college may charge, and this in
cludes stamp duty and a vellum serool
with the royal sign manual affixed there
to. Nor may the college charge a fee sot
any information unless it states that fee
before giving the information. The man
who goes there knows exactly beforehand
what ho will have to pay. The bill is not
being constantly added to by disinterred
lead coffins or initials on belfry beams.
"But can any one walk up Queen Vic
toria street, enter the little courtyard,
ascend the stone steps and plank down
£76 10s. and got himpplf a coat of
arms?” The Daily Mail representative
asked this question at the college. No,
was the answer. Before being granted
a coat of arms a man must prove he
has reached a state of life in which arms
can bo suitably borne. The proof is left
entirely to the discretion of the Duke of
Norfolk, earl marshal of England.—Lon

The Think
I’ll-J ust-Try-It-Once
Advertisers must remember that
before direct results can be ob
tained from an ad it has got to do
the missionary work of educating
the people to the fact that his
store is just as good and just as
reliable as his better known com
petitors. And when you remember
the reason why his competitors
are better known is because they
advertise to secure their reputa
tion and standing, and are still
advertising in order to hold this
ground, you can better understand
the hard up-hill work the mis
sionary ads have to do.
