A nervous looking man went into a

said no, he dhl’nt • ant anything, The
clerk went away and lie sat tlieie an hour
longer, when tie' proprietor went t■> ! in: !
aml asken him if he wanted to- he show
anything. “No,” said the nervous umn ;
“I just want to sit still for a time. My
physician lias recommended perfect quit! j
for me, and says above all things 1 must i
avoid being in crowds. Notleeing tied i
you dpi not advertise in the newspaper, 1 :
thought that this would or a- quiet a p:

picked up a bolt of paper cambric to both:
him, but the man went on. He said, a'l ;
he wanted was a quid life.
An Unexpected Rebuk\
It is more mollifying, perliaj -.
to lincl ive liave iimit i rated a era j
zy person’s sense, than to iimi j
we have taken a deaf person’s
hearing for granted. The Spring
field Republican says that amon ;
the inmates ot a Western ins. lie
asylum is a man who is niton
perfectly sensible, and when ac
costed at such times cause visit
bis to wonder why he is cut;lined j
there.
This inmate entered into con
versation l lie other day whh a
caller whose drees proclaimed
him a clergyman. Said the m i
man :
“It was too bad, was it not, the
killing of Grant at Chicago f
“It w as,’’ said tlie minister win 1
followed the accepted custom ot
assenting to the statements oi lu
natics for peace sake.
“Hayes was assassinated at
Cincinnati, was lie not?’, again;
asked the "Uniat c.
“Yes,” replied the clergyman
“And was not Queen Victoria
niurderdered tn her palace P
To this query lnm tie mad
man the clerical visitor once
more answered in the cffiriuatiys.
The lunatic named one alter
another a dozen living royal pti
soilages, all of whom the clergy
man was led to admit had been
put out of the way. Finishing
his catechism, the madman turn
ed on the clergyman and said,
fiercely. “V ur dress shows you
area minister, But you arc liie
worst liar I ever met.*’

Koine, Ga. Marble and Granite Works
W C deal in the best Italian and American Marble, varigated and white. We handle
1 1 1j a great deal of the well known and popular Rutland Marble, which is ti e
whitest, and said to tie the best in the world for slab work, such as Head Stones,
Tomb Tablets, &c., but the Indian equals i.t for monuments. We furnish all kinds of
building stone, but make Marble and Granite for grave and cemetery purposes a spe
cialty. We build all kinds of Monuments, Toombs, Head .-tones. Urns, Vases, &c.,
&c. Our workmen are first-chu-s. We buy all our stock in the rough and do the
work ourselves ; therefore, v.v send out fire -class work, made of the best of marble.
We pay the cash for all the stock we use. We get very low rates of freights, and
can and will compete with any Marble Works in this country, in quality of Marble,
workmanship and prices. Write and give us the description of the work you wish,
and we will write you what we can furnish it for, or write us about what price you
wish to pay, aud we will let you know what kind ot job or jo* s we can give you for
pries mentioned. We keep sonic of the second and third class marble, but
never send them out, except when the priefe arc such as first-class marble cannot be
furnished at, and then we always tell the purchaser the kiud of marble we will furnish.
Hoping you will give us a trial aud let us prove what we say, we are, very truly,
