The Georgia Magnet—A Femin
ine Phenomenon.
On Saturday next, March 28th
Mies Annie'May Abbott, who un
der the above title has acquired a
reputation for the performance of
some extraordinary feats, will ap
pear at the Auditorium in Blakely.
Judging from the press notices the
lady has received she should prove
a great attraction. Mr Keen,
who is the advance agent, has
kindly handed us the following ex
tract, which will give the public an
idea of this performer’s powers :
“Miss Abbott possesses some
power, it may be of electricity, to
withstand in a truly marvellous
manner physical force exercised by
ordinary mortals. One of the
feats the Magnet performs is this.
A chair is held by a gentleman ;
Miss Abbott touches it and he
finds it to stand still
Then other gentlemen, placing
their hands between her fingers
and the chair, feel no pressure at
all on their hands. Again, she
holds a chair on her hand, and chal
lenges any person to pull it away,
yet she uses no physical force to
retain it. A stick is placed on her
hands, and even five gentlemeif
will fail to remove it. She will
poise herself on one heel, and defy
four or five gentlemen to push her
over, or she will stand with her
finger tips against a wall and defy
them to push her against it. She
will lift one, two, three, four, five,
six or more gentlemen, separately
or all together, while hands inter
vening between her and the object
on which she lifts them feel no
muscular pressure. We have very
often seen references to Miss Ab
bott’s great performance, and may
mention that this talented lady has
appeared at all the courts of Eu
rope. Her tour through the world
has been one gigantic triumph.
She has appeared twice by special
request before Her Majesty at
Windsor, and three times before
the Prince of Wales, now King
Edward, and all the Royal family.”
Miss Abbott is the eighth wonder
of the world, and residents should
not fail to see her marvelous per
formances.

Saved from Death.
The family of Mrs. M. L. Bob
bitt of Bargerton, Tenn., saw her
dying and were powerless to save 1
her. The most skillful physicians |
and every remedy used, failed, j
while consumption was slowly 7 but 1
surely taking her life. In this ter
rible hour Dr King’s New Discov
ery for consumption turned despair j
into joy. The first bottle brought I
immediate relief and its continued j
use completely cured her. It’s the
most certain cure in the world for
,all throat and lung troubles. Guar •

Deafness Cannot be Cared
by local applications, as they cannot reach the dis
eased portion of the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by constitutional reme
dies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition
of the mucous lining of the Eustachian tube
When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed deafness is the result, aud unless the inflam
mation can be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever. Niue cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the
mucuous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars for any case
of deafness caused by catarrh that cannot be cured
by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

child of Mr. P. L. McPherson, 59
N. Tenth St., Harrisburg, Pa.,
would sleep but two or three hours
in the early part of the night,
which made it very hard for her
parents. Her mother concluded
that the child had stomach trouble,
and gave her half of one of Cham

and she s ] ept the • whole night ,
through. Two boxes of these I
Tablets have effected a permanent j
cure and she is now well and strong, j
