THE DALTON CITIZEN, Til U BSD AY, OCTOBER 1, 1914.
A Gloom Chaser
BY C. R. VANCE
Prof. Crowe has just finished a sing
ing school at Shanghai this week—kind
of a “crowing” . school I should
imagine.
Mrs. Pull Topnoteh gave a delightful
war party at her husband’s home on
last Tuesday evening, complimentary to
the Limburger girls from Berlin.
I saw a hearse standing in front of
Sim Cudd’s house the other day, and
I asked Jodie Suggs (who was stand
ing on the door step) if Sim was dead.
He replied that he was. I then asked
what complaint, and Jodie remarked,
“None; everybody satisfied.”
Tobe Snatch says poverty is no dis
grace, and on the other hand it’s noth
ing to brag about, either.
Simmie Scandlus reminds us that
there is hel in Wilhelm, and that Wil
helm has put the n g in England and
the ran in France. Get tickets here,
please.
Asy Botts, who lost his wife by death
in the spring, has had a watch chain
plaited from her hair.
I’d hate to have old man Charon’s
job at the ferry across the river Styx
just now, when the war in Europe is
passing out the transfers so fast.
The Kaiser with the curious mous
tache has Teddy, the Terrible, and
Harry Thaw and Jim Ham Lewis baek-
, ed off the front page for fair.
“He married a corn-fed named Maud,
Who’s shape wasn’t long, but quite
braud,
They continued to spoon, for a brief
honeymoon,
But now he is claud, chaud and jaud. ”
Funny how some men will shine their
shoes at home to show wifey how they
are sticklers for economy, and then go
straight to town and belly up to the
bar and treat a bunch of slobs that will
stick him for ninety cents.
Here is a very sad but true saying:
‘ ‘ Drink, and the world drinks with you;
settle the bill, and you settle alone.”
Did you know it is a lead-pipe cinch
to sit here and study up all this fightin’
stuff? Well, I reckon you are a darn
poor judge of work, ole top.
Our dear old grandparents used to sit
and listen to the sweet strains of “The
Mocking Bird.” Their dear grandchil
dren now tango as they listen to the
tune, “Everybody’s doin’ it, doin’ jt.
Everybody’s doin’ it now.”
Marriage is the art of. learning to be
good and behave yourself by contract.
All’s- flare in love and war.
Debt is the pitiless wheel that grinds
and grinds till the edge of misery and
want is keen.
When your wife is too ill to read the
store advertisements and the society
and scandal column, she is then in need
of a physician, or the undertaker.
Susie Goldine Hellwanger says love
is well-sweetened misery divided be
tween two adults of different sex.
‘Uncle Si” Guber says generally
speaking a woman—is generally speak
ing.
Here are the stairsteps of life for the
generation to come—
Courtship,
Matrimony,
Courthouse,
Alimony.
I desire to say to my dear friends and
readers that the 200 page book
cently gotten out by the Showalter Co
Dalton, Ga., has certainly sold in
hurry. This book, containing all the
best of my writings, has gone into
Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Tennessee,
North Carolina, South Carolina, Arkan
sas, Missouri, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Ohio
and Illinois. I am selling quite a few
of the limp leather binding at two dol
lars a throw, but more of the dollar
cloth binding. If you haven’t bought
a copy, get busy. This book will scare
away the blues and the thoughts of dull
times—“Care will kill a cat.”
WAS MISERABLE
COULDN’T STAND
Testifies She Was Restored
to Health by Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound.
Lackawanna, N. Y. —"After my first
child was bom I felt very miserable and
could not stand on
my feet. My sister-
in-law wished me to
try Lydia E. Pink-
ham’s Vegetable
Compound and my
nerves became firm,
appetite good, step
elastic, and I lost
that weak, tired
feeling. That was
six years ago and I
have had three fine
healthy children since. For female trou
bles I always take Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound and it works like
acharm. I do all my own work.’’—Mrs.
A. F. Kreamer, 1574 Electric Avenue,
Lackawanna, N. Y.
The success of Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound, made from roots
and herbs, is unparalleled. It may be
used with perfect confidence by women
who suffer from displacements, inflam
mation,ulceration,tumors,irregularities,
periodic pains, backache, bearing-down
feeling,flatulency, indigestion,dizziness,
or nervous prostration. Lydia E. Pink
ham’s Vegetable Compound is the stan
dard remedy for female ills.
Women who suffer from those dis
tressing ills peculiar to their sex should
be convinced of the ability of Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound to re
store their health by the many genuine
and truthful testimonials we are con
stantly publishing in the newspapers.

Toy Dog Scares Burglar.
(From Minneapolis Journal.)
A toy dog, equipped with a mechani
cal bark, routed a burglar who broke
into the home of F. B. Albro, and the
robber escaped by fleeing from
the house and boarding a moving
freight train, two blocks away, amid
rain of bullets from a policeman’s pis
tol. The robber was walking quietly
through the hall at the Albro home
when he stepped on the toy dog. The
toy yipped, awakening Mr. Albro and
frightening the robber.

The Moral of the Story.
The Kindergarten teacher recited to
her pupils the story of the wolf and
the lamb. As she completed she said:
“Now, children, you see that the
Iamb would not have been eaten by the
wolf if he had been good and sensible.”
One little boy raised his hand.
“Well, John,” asked the teacher,
“what is it?”
“If the lamb had been good and
sensible,” said the little boy gravely,
“we should have had him to eat,
wouldn’t we?”—New York Times.
FAMOUS RELIGIOUS EDITOR.
The famed Bible defender, the ven
erable Pastor Bussell of London and
Brooklyn Tabernacles, has won un
stinted praise from the press and public
of many nations by forty years' unceas
ing activity as evangelist and writer.
In the early part of his ministry
smaller, cities were frequently visited,
but not so*'now. since his field of op
eration has become world-wide, and
the urgent invitations to deliver free
public lectures in the largest cities
have become so numerous that even all
of these cannot be accepted.
For the past several years Pastor
Bussell has made semi-annual foreign
tours, and. through the press reports of
his meetings held in large public halls
of the leading cities, he has received
much favorable comment and publicity.
Wonderful Drawing Power.
As a public speaker on Bible topics.
Pastor Russell stands unrivaled-
stands alone in a place created by his
own individual work, a place not previ
ously attained nor occupied by another.
The mammoth crowds that repeated
ly assemble to hear him at every op
portunity is conclusive evidence as to
his drawing power. Last year, while
conducting a series of Sunday meet
ings in the London Royal Albert Hall,
Pastor Russell received written com
munications through the mail from
more than six thousand persons, re
questing printed copies of his sermons.
So spontaueous a demand was both
unprecedented and unlooked for. An
other evidence of his popularity on the
other side of the rolling blue is the
publication of his weekly sermons in
something over three hundred papers
in England. Ireland.Scotland. Australia.
The Editor of Great Britain's fore
most family paper. The People's Jour
nal. has so aptly commented and acted
on the matter that we can do no better
than to quote here the heart-to-heart
talk he gave his readers. He said:—
A Wonderful Preacher.
"It Is not the non-church-going tenden
cies of the Age that 1 want to talk to
you about.- although my ‘theme’ is more
or less closely connected with that sub
ject. You have all. I think, heard of
Pastor Russell, the wonderful American
preacher, who has Just been inducted to
the charge of the London Tabernacle,
known all over the United Kingdom and
thousands of miles beyond, as the pulpit
of the revered Spurgeon. Mr. Russell has
achieved a position in the world of re
ligious thought unequaled by any living
Divine. And. curiously enough, he deliv
ers his message to far more people ‘out
side’ the church than could ever be
brought together within the walls of the
largest temple in the Universe. His ser
mons and writings have won for them
selves an extraordinary popularity in
America and I am credibly informed that
Pastor Russell’s printed books on religious
subjects are excelled in circulation only
by the Bible itself. Jifst think what this
means. It means that millions of people
all over the world have found something
in Pastor Russell's sermons, essays and
lectures which they have been unable to
discover in any other religious writings
apart from the Great Book Itself.
A Weekly Talk.
"Now, to come to the crux of the mat
ter. I feel sure that the vast majority of
my readers will learn with pleasure that
I have arranged for a weekly contribution
from the pen of Pastor Russell. A ‘ser-
monette’ Mr. Russell himself calls it, but
I have an idea it will be found to be
something more, something fuller, than
merely a condensed sermon. 1 have been
reading a selection of the famous Pas
tor’s religious writings, and they appeal
to me as being more of the nature of
quiet, discursive talks on serious subjects
than sermons or pulpit deliverances of the
conventional description. Pastor Russell
is a clear, easily understood thinker; he
eschews dogma and all subtleties of form
and faith, and he says what he has to say
on the great truths of religion and morals
in plain but always beautiful language.
He speaks and writes not only to the or
dinary church-goer, as we accept the
phrase, but to all intelligent men and wo
men. and 1 for one can quite well appre
ciate the unparalleled popularity which
he has achieved in America—a popularity.
I feel convinced, he will very soon equal
in this country. Pastor Russell's talks
will begin in the Journal next week, and 1
am hopeful that they will be an extremely
popular feature of the Journal."
The Press of America.
Pastor Russell's popularity abroad
does not deprive him of the honor of
preaching to the largest congregation
in America. Surprising as it may
seem, his sermous are at present pub
lished in more than one thousand
newspapers in America, reaching ap
proximately ten million homes weekly.
Last June and July, while making a
trans-continental tour to attend the Bi
ble Students Convention at San Fran
cisco, Pastor Russell made several
stops en route, and the reception every
where accorded the “American Spur-
geon’’ was most heart-cheering.
Many excellent accounts of his meet
ings were published. “The San Fran
cisco Call.” in making reference to
what other papers were saying, inter
estingly summarized as follows:—
What is more important is the peril in
government invasion of private indus
trial enterprise. If the making of ar
mor-plate is & legitimate government
activity, where'shall the line be drawn ?
What limit shall be placed upon the
things the government must make for
itself or buy in the open market? The
proposal is yicious in principle and will
be dangerous in operation.
"Pastor Russell’s given name has been
lost to public record during the last ten
years, in which he has been famous as the
great ‘Pastor’—plain Pastor Russell—who
has swayed hundreds of thousands In this
country and abroad.
“Do they come to hear him? Well, rath
er! So far it has been Impossible to en
gage a hall large enough to hold the
crowds. Dreamland Rink has been hired
for this occasion. In Kansas City, Den
ver, Salt Lake and Los Angeles the Pas
tor and his faithful crew have taken the
populace by storm. The newspapers have
given him more space than a war scare
and print his speeches like a Presidential
message.”
Has Many Interpreters.
Pastor Russell recently returned
from a ’‘Round-tbe-World” Tour. His
was a two-fold work, as he by appoint
ment was to Investigate certain mat
ters pertaining to Foreign Mission ac
tivities. and also to deliver public ad
dresses In Great Britain. Greece. In
dla. Ceylon. China. Japan, etc. He Is
soon to leave on another Tour, which
will Include nearly all of the countries
not previously visited by him. Thus
the declaration that the “Gospel of
the Kingdom” shall be preached as a
witness to all nations in all the world
will, by the end of this year, practical
ly be fulfilled by him alone.
There is more Catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it a
local disease and prescribed local reme
dies, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it incur
able. Science has proven Catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore re
quires constitutional treatment. Hall’s
Catarrh Cute, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney & Co.. Toledo. Ohio, is the only
Constitutional cure on the market. It Is
taken internally. It acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces of the system.
They offer one hundred dollars for any
case it fails to cure. Send for circulars

How Khaki Was Discovered.
(From; Milwaukee Journal.)
Khaka was discovered by a happy
accident. The British troops in India
wore a cotton uniform which, when
new, was khaki in color, but after
visit to the laundry was indescribable,
A Manchester business man, discussing
this defect, remarked casually that
fortune awaited the man who could find
a khaki dye that would ont fade,
young officer heard the remark, hired
a skillful native dyer, and began the
search. Years passed in fruitless ex
periments, till one day, turning over
heap of rags, relics of their failures
they chanced upon one piece which was
still khaki, though the laundry had
worked its 'will. It had received
special treatment, except that it had
fallen into a< metal dish. That was the
secret. The metal of the dish and the
chemicals in the dye had combined to
produce that fadeless color.
Parried.
She was very much in love with him
and one evening, while they were alone,
she asked:
“Frank, tell me truly; you have
kissed other girls, haven’t you?”
“Yes,” replied the young man, “but
no one you know.”—New York Times.

Government Armor-Plate.
(From the Philadelphia Ledger.)
A combination of armor-plate manu
facturers to keep up prices is undoubt
edly wrong, especially wnen American
armor-plate is sold to foreign powers
below our prices, but the remedy is not
cither in building a government plant
or in buying one of the three existing
plants. It is contrary' to AH experience
that the government can manufacture
as cheaply or efficiently a* private mills.
