THE BADGE THAT M’KINLEY WORE. WELCOME! \ \ \ A r BiBB COUNTY G(W. No. CONFEDERATE VETERANS, MACON, GA., Dec. 19, 1898. “ Every soldier's grave made du> mg the unfortunate civil usr'i:. a tribute to j American valor; and while when those. j graves were made we differed widely about the putui e of the government, those diffi rentes were long ago settled by the arbitrament of arms, and the time has come, in the evolution of sentiment and feeling, in the providence of God, ivhen in the spirit of fraternity we should share | with you in the care of the graves of Con federate soldiei Macon seems to have furnished the most sensational incident of President (Mc- Kinley’s Southern trip, in that Dr. Roland B. IHall, a member of the Bibb County C.tmp of Confederate Veterans, which met and welcomed the President upon his ar rival in Macon, pinned one of the veterans’ badges on President McKinley’s coat. Pho incident has been published throughout the country, and this has led to numerous requests for badges as souvenirs of the occasion. Colonel C. M. Wiley, commander of the ißibb Camp Confederate Veterans, has received several requests for these badges, as has iDr. Hall, mainly from Northerners. It has been necessary to make more badges iq, order to supply thh demand, and yesterday The (News struck off for Colonel Wiley a new lot for distribution as souvenirs. The badge worn by the Confederate Veterans, and also by President McKinley on •the occasion in question was designed and presented to the Veterans by Mr. Tom W. Loyless. editor of The News. They were made of Confederate grey satin ribbon, three inohes wide by ten long, printed in blue and set off at the top by a bow of narrow patriotic ribbon. The badges were hastily made, only about three hours bt ing allowed in which to turn them out, but it was the general verdict that they were peculiarly appropriate to £he occasion. The above illustration is a sac-simile of the badge that has since become famous by reason of the fact that it was worn by an < x-Vnion soldier and Republican President. Oilcloth Collings. Oilcloth is the new material for paper ing ceilings, the term “paper” being used at present in a very elastic sense, signify ing anything that can be put on walls or ceiling. The rd . antage of an oilcloth ceiling is readily discernible, as dust, like good actions, is sure to rise, and if one’s home is illuminated by gas or lamps there • is only the recourse to the unsightly chan ' tidier protectors to keep the ceiling fixm getting smudged. Th/ bilcloth can be washed frequently and be kept, by the aid of a damp doth, as good as now tor in-, finite spaces of time or until one irones to a newer apartment. The task of putting on the oilcloth re quires an expert, as the joining is not the easiest thing to do. If you think so, try it. The patterns of oilcloths seem particularly well adapted for ceilings, with their scroll and line effects, which do not conflict with the patterns of <ae wall paper or its mono chromatic effect. In line with the ceilings is the new ma terial for kitchen window curtains.—New York Hera hl. Broke the Record. A London paper says that an adjutant in the Salvation Army has achieved the remarkable feat of singing 59 hymns ir 69 minutes. The occasion on which this record was made was called a “singing battle.” He began with “I Will Follow Jesus,” and hymn after hymn followed swiftly. When he reached the doxology after singing eight extra hymn% he was 2h minutes ahead of the stipulated time. When he finished, he shouted, “Bieas the Lord, I‘ve broken the record!” A TEXAS WONDER. - Hall’s Great Discovery.

If a man will stop and reason for a moment, lie does not have to be a physician to understand the causes of impure blood, or its far-reaching effects. When a man’s digestion is disor dered, his liver sluggish, his bowels inac tive, the blood is deprived of the proper food elements, and the sluggish liver and bowels supply in their place, the foulest of poisons. The blood is the life-stream. When it is full of foul poisons, it carries and deposits them in every organ and tis sue of the body. Bone, sinew, muscle, and flesh-tissue, the brain cells and the nerve fibres are all fed upon bad. poisenous food. Serious ill-health is bound to resujt. The man is weakened in every fiber of his body. He is weakened physically, mentally and morally. He suffers from sick headache, distress in stomach after meals, giddiness and drowsiness, loss of appetite and sleep, bad taste in the mouth, shakiness in the morning, and dullness throughout the day. and lassitude and an indisposition to work. Sooner or later these conditions develop consumption, nervous prostration, malaria, rheumatism, or some blood or skin disease.
