When a man begins an undertak¬

must be backed up with a world ol
energy, for success is only attained
after a struggle and well directed
effort. It is the samo way in busi«

can manage and lhateverybody can
run, must have some sort of system

it takes a deal of head as well as
pocket money to run a newspaper.

How a Great and Good Man Looks in

summer here at his home, getting

friends and admirers in the convo¬

You have seen this man when he
has been swaying with his homely,
rugged eloquence immense audiences
of people. You have followed hirn

continents, addressing and moving
with his wonderful power large au
diencos in more cities and towns
than any other American, now liv¬

published utterances and acknowl¬
edged his real greatness. You now
look upon him in a new character.
Here you see him at homo. Hero

Teach them to think that the lit

too.
Teach them, as they grow older,
that a respectful demeanor to oth¬

disposition, a generous nature, an
honest purposo and an industrious
mind are better than anything elso
on earth. Teach them these things

Tho Lest paying office in Georgia
is tho United Slates Attorneyship
for the Northern district ot Georgia,
which is held by B. II. Hill, Jr. The
District Attorney is allowed 86,000
a year and $ 1,200 additional for a
clerk. Ills compensation depends
on the fees of the office, but they
never fail to exceed tho allowance
and a snug sum is annually covered
into the Federal Treasury. No oth¬
er Eederal office pays as well as the
District Attorneyship. Revenue The Collec¬ about
tor oflnternal gets
84,000. The Marshal’s office is n»w
worth about 85,000, though it once
paid as much ns 810,000 and
812,000 a year. The Postmas¬

It makes no difference what business
you are engaged in : whether you are a
preacher, a merchant, a mechanic, a
lawyer or a common laborer, you can’t
do your work well while you are half
sick. Thousands try to, but all in vain.

like a charm, thus assuring a quick and
almost painless delivery without physi¬

READ WIIAT HE SAYS.
«» Eight years ago, while livingin Cow¬
eta county, my wife, a strong, healthy
woman, strained herself from overlift¬
ing. and brought on what physicians
termed “falling of the womb.” Being
complicated with other female troubles,
she was reduced at the time I speak of.
to almost a shadow. I had tried all (lie
physiansand icines nearly all the patent med¬
I could hear of, but she did not
improve in at all: kept getting worse, and
her, a it jit of desperation, and, luckily fur

BRADFIELD’S FEMALE REGULATOR.
In one week’s time she was relieved
and by continued use of it site cured
sound and well. She has since become
the mother of two strong, healthy chil¬
dren. Now, after a lapse of five years
ot dence uninterrupted in lifting, health, by her impru¬
she has brought on the
old again, but, strange as it may seem,
she does not look upon it with that sense
of loathing and horror as might be ex¬
pected, for she says it will not take your
remedy long to cure her, and when I
suggested getting a physician, she indig¬
nantly replied that as long as she could

BRADFIELD’S FEMALE REGULATOR,
She needed no other doctor, for, having
saved her life once, she knew it would
