Tallapoosa, Ga., June ri.—
The city is still in the throes of a
genuine surprise in the form of
the quiet marriage of C. M.
Bruce and Mrs. Lucy Jane Fol**
lonsbee last Friday night at the
home of a prominent business
man, F. H. Smith, a brother 'in
law of the groom. This is Mrs.
Bruce’s third venture into the
hymeneal realm. Her first mar
riage was to a Mr. Oaks, and her
son, Rev. Frederic Oaks, of Den
ver, has a national reputation as
the founder of the consumption
home in that city. More than
half a century ago she and Mr.
Bruce were schoolmate lovers in
the north, but separation and ab
sence conquered love, and Mr.
Bruce was married. Just three
weeks ago Mrs. Follansbee came
down from New Hampshire for a
visit, and the two met and the old-
time passion was renewed. The
bride was able on Friday to cele
brate her 72nd birthday annivers
ary as well as the 29th annivers
ary of her union with Mr. Follons-
bee. The groom who recently
lost his wife, is 75. Mrs. Bruce
is a remarkably well preserved
woman.

Hightower & Talley Have Such Faith
in This Great Dyspepsia Remedy
That They Guarantee It.
It is au unusual thing for a
druggist to sell a medicine under
a guarantee to refund the money if
it does not cure. Yet this is the
way Hightower & Talley, the pop
ular druggists, are selling Mi-o-na,
the standaid dyspepsia remedy.
Never before have they had so
large a number of customers tell
them that a medicine has cured as
with Mi o na. People who a few
months ago looked like walking
skeletons have put on flesh and
today are ruddy and vigorous with
perfect digestion and good health,
soley due to the use of this remedy.
There is no longer any need of
anyone suffering or making their
friends suffer on account of dys*
pepsia, for Mi-o-na can be relied
upon to cure. The peicentage of
cures is so nearly one hnndred per
cent, that there is little risk to
Hightower & Talley in guarantee
ing to return the money if the
medicine does not cure, and they
stand ready to do so without any
questions.
Headaches, all forms of indiges*
tion, specks before the eyes, dizzy
feelings, poor sleep, ringing in the
ears and all forms of liver trouble
are cured by Mi-o na, price 50c.
A few days’ treatment shows con
siderable gain in health and a cure
speedily follows.
These days are the best in the
whole year for the enjoyment of
good health. And Mi-o-na will
put you in such perfect condition
that you can enjoy every minute of
them.

Waiting Patiently.
A small boy sat quietly in a
seat of the day coach on a train
running between two western cit
ies of the United States. It was a
hot, dusty day, very uncomfortable
for traveling, and that particular
ride is, perhaps, the most uninter
esting day’s journey in the whole
land. But the little fellow sat
patiently watching the fields and
fences hurrying by, until an old
lady leaning forward, asked sym
pathetically: “Aren’t you tired
of the long ride, dear, and -the
dust and the heat?” The boy
looked up brightly and replied,
with a smile, “Yes, ma’m, a little,
but I don t mind it much, because
my father is going to meet me
when I get to the end of it
What a beautiful thought it is,
that, when life seems wearisome
and monotonous, as it sometimes
doss, we can look forward hope
fully and trustingly and, like the
lonely little lad, “not mind it
much,” because our Father, too,
will be willing to meet us at our
journey’s end.—Sunday School
Chronicle.

GREAT INDIANS AT FAIR.
Chiefs Joseph, Geronlmo, Red Cloud
and Other Famous Warriors at
St. Louis.
St. Louis, June 8.—Like living
pictures in gaudy colors at the
World’s Fair are some of the most
famous Indian chiefs of modern
times. Chief Joseph, the great
Nez Perce warrior who displayed
so much skill in his long cam
paigns against the United States
troops, is of the World’s Fair at
tractions. Another is Red Cloud,
th# old Sioux chief, now 96 years
old, and his sub-chiefs Flat Iron,
Red Shirt, Crow Dog, Lone Bear
and Lost Horse.
Red Cloud, whose wrinkled
paiuted face is like parchment,
clings to the Indain garb of plains
but wears eye glasses like the
“pale faces.”
Geronimo the savage old Apa
che chief, who led General Miles
and other United States army offi
cers such long weary chases
through the mountain fastnesses
of Arizona and New Mexico, is
soon to join the other famous
Indians at the Fair. Geronimo
and the remnants of his warlike
tribe have been prisoners of war at
Fort Sill, Oklahoma, for several
years and will be under the watch,
ful eye of LTuited States troops
while at the Fair.
These Apache prisoners have no
lands or annuities. They are fed
and cared for by the Goverment
and make considerable spending
money by the sale of their fancy
bead work, such as moccasins,
b®lts, purses, etc., eet., made of
buckskin painted and decorated
with beads in an artistic manner.
Ihese old chieftains are accom
panied by many members of their
tribes: warriors, squaws and pap*
pooses, arrayed in blankets and
buckskins, gorgeous with decora
tions, elaborate headdresses and
painted faces. These Indians,
relics of departing races, are
among the most interesting attrac
tions at the Fair and are the sub*
jects of many picture kodakers.
They wander up and down the
Pike every evening and frequent
ly attend some of the shows.
They are conspicuous figures rob
ed in their red blankets and dec*
orated with feathers, beads and4
other ornaments and seem to enjoy
the sights and ignore the curious
attention which they attract.
