of business during ’96 and ’97, and as a result of

GOVERNOR CANDLER.
The new governor is no new man
in the affairs of the state. He is no
stranger to the people of Georgia.
On the contrary he is well known to
them as a man us lofty character and
unusual ability. He has arrived at
that, mature age when wisdom ripens
and when conservatism in counsel
and action govern the man.
The new governor goes into office
with a practically solid constituency
ready to hold up his hands. He
enters npon a most auspicious begin
ning. If he follows his own
judgment he will make a succes of
his administration. We have no
doubt be will do it. An honest man
who is also an able man can afford to
guide his own course as a ruler.
—Macon Telegraph.
Governor Candler’s ’inaugural ad
dress, printed in The Press today, is
strong and statesmanlike. Governor
Candler protests against imperialism
and standing armies. He promises
to hold down the state tax. He
wants the ballot box closely guarded,
although he does not care for the
Australian system. Governor Can
dler’s address is an interesting state
paper. He will make a patriotic and
practical chief executive —Savannah

I am very pleased to state that since I
took the agency of Chamberlain’s medi
cines the sale has been very large, more
especially of the Cough Remedy. In
two years I have told more of this par
ticular remedy than of all other makes
for the previous five years. As to its
efficacy, I have been informed by scores 1
of persons of the good results they have i
received from it, and know its value
from tne use of it in my own household.
It is so pleasant to take that we have to
place the bottle beyond the reach of the

Written in Fifteen Minutes.
“ ‘Safe in the Arms of Jesus’ is Fanny
Crosby’s favorite hymn—her favorite out
of the more than three thousand that
have come from the gifted pen of this
blind composer,” says the November La
dies’ Home Journal. “It was a written
in fifteen minifies. One day W. H. Doane
called upon her —Miss Crosby told me—
and said, ‘I have forty minutes in which
to catch my train, and I want to take
with me the words to this music.’ And
he hummed the melody. ‘Can you do
it?’ he asked. Miss Crosby replied, ‘All
right; I will do it.’ Ina quarter of an
hour the hymn, ‘Safe in the Arms of Je
sus,’ was completed. ‘lt was an inspira
tion,’ she explains ”
How to Find Out.
Fill a bottle or common glass with
your water and let it stand twenty-four
hours: a sediment or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of the kidneys;
if it stains your linen it is evidence of
kidney trouble; too frequent desire to
pass it or pain in the back is also con
vincing proof that the kidneys and blad
der are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passages.
It corrects inability to hold water and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects
following use of liquor, wine or beer,
and overcomes that unpleasant necessity
of being compelled to go often during
the day, and to get up many times dur
ing the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its
wonderful cures of the most distressing
cases. If you need a medicine you should
have the best. At druggists, fifty cents
or one dollar.
You may have a sample bottle and a
book that tells more about it, both sent
absolutely free by mail, if you send your
address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bingham
ton, N Y. When writing be sure and
mention that you read this generous offer
in the Gainesville Eagle.
Moody Silenced the Noisy Rough.
On one occasion when Evangelist
Moody was addressing a crowd of roughs
a man in the rear of the assembly kept
shouting to the preacher, “’Old yer jaw,
there!” For some minutes Mr. Moody
paid no attention to these insults, but at
length he deemed it necessary to call the
man to order, and on the repetition of
the cry he calmly responded: “Don’t for

my friend.” The desired effect was in

DUNLAP & PICKRELL.
WILL BE LOTS OF THEM.
The Lexington Echo predicts that
Oglethorpe county will have a candi
date for United States Senate two
years from now. It fails to tell us,
however, whether Col. James M.
Smith, Justice Samuel Lumpkin,
Judge Hamp McWhorter or Con
gressman Howard will be the man.
With these four to choose from, a
mistake would be hard to make.
The Atlanta Journal of last Fri
day contained the following :
Col. Leonidas F. Livingston will
be a candidate for the United States
Senate in 1900 to succeed Senator
A. O. Bacon, whose it rm expires
then.
It is understood that Senator Ba
con will be a candidate for re-elec
tion, and that Ex -Governor William
Yates Atkinson and lion. F. G. Du-
Bignon will be in the race.
The announcement of Col. Living
ston’s candidacy was made by him to
his friends here yesterday afternoon
and to one gentleman he declared
that he would gi t more votes than
either of the other candidates and
that he would win the race.
He has been among the 1> g s’ators
several times of late, but it was not
definitely known before that he had
decided to run for ibe Senate.

THE FAITHFUL COUPLE.
“You are still a youth to me, John;
You are still my bonny beau,
The same as when we plighted troth
s Fully fifty years ago,
The same as when our wedding bells
Rang out so glad and gay!”
And here the good wife breathed a sigh
And shook her locks of gray.
“It seemeth strange to me, John,
Who married you for aye,
Who hold the ring you gave me as
The apple of my eye,
To see the youngsters ne'er content
To give their hearts and hands,
As we did in the good old times, i
Without the scrip and lands.
“I didn’t bring you much, John,
And you had little more,
But we had health in place of wealth
And plenteous love in store,
And through the joy and strife, dear,
We each one did our part,
And now we’ve one another still,
As we had at the start.
“The times have sadly changed, John,
Since you and I were young.
The marriage tie is lightly held
And many a heart is wrung.
And yet you’re young to me, John,
And still my bonny beau,
The same as when we plighted troth
Full fifty years ago!”
—Mrs. M. A. Kidder in New York Ledger.
“Are They Any Laundry.”
Queer turns the abuse of the Eng
lish language will take on the Amer
ican continent as well as in the
heart of the British capital. The
other day, from the passageway
where a certain domestic assistant
occasionally goes to make inquiries
of the mistress of the house, the lis
tener heard this question asked:
“Are they any laundry?”
What the woman meant, put into
the fewest plain words, was this,
“Is there a parcel to go to the laun
dry?” The phrase was pure Ameri
can, and was used by a native of
our great and glorious country.
Among some of the people, the
word “laundry” means not merely
the place where washing is done,
but the articles washed, taken col
lectively. Not long ago the listener
saw in the window of a man’s fur
nishing store—beg pardon, a gents’
furnishing store —a placard which
read, “Don’t forget to leave your
laundry 1”
This perversion of the ancient
word “lavendery” takes a curiously
different turn from Sir Hugh Evans’
use of the word in “The Merry
Wives of Windsor:”
“There dwells one Mistress Quick
ly, which is in the manner of his
nurse, or his dry nurse, or his cook,
or his laundry, his washer and his
wringer.”
And it somehow seems less absurd
to call an animated washer and
wringer a “laundry” than the
things washed and wrung.—Boston
Transcript.
The De Goncourts and Turgeneff.
Dinner at Magny’s; Charles Ed
mond brought Turgeneff, that
foreign writer with such a graceful
talent, author of the “Memoiresd’un
Seigneur Russe, ” and the “Hamlet
Busse. ” He is a great, big, charm
ing fellow, a gentle giant with
bleached hair, and looks like the
kindly genius of a mountain or a
forest. He is handsome—-magnifi
cently, immensely handsome—with
the blue of heaven in his eyes and
that charming Russian singsong
voice there is just some
thing both of the child and of the
negro. Being put at his ease by the
ovation that was given to him, he
talked in a curious and interesting
way about Russian literature, which
he declares to be well launched upon
the tide of realism, from the novel
to the play.—“Turgeneff and Hia
Wrench Circle. ”
Saved the Babies.
The following story is told as il
lustrative of one phase of the char
acter of the Russian peasant in a re
cent magazine: During the last
Russo-Turkish war a Russian regi- [
ment marching from Philippopolis
to Adrianople overtook the Turkish
refugees, whereupon the terrified
Turkish women threw down theii
infants in their flight. The Russian
soldiers, while pressing on as rapidly
as possible, stooped and picked up
the babies, until nearly every man
in the regiment was carrying a child,
and the general was absolutely
obliged to stop the march and find
carts and men to transfer the chil
dren to a place of safety.
Escaped Death.
Unusual Experience Granted Le Roy Bowen-Given up to
Die by Four Doctors Decause of a Serious Compli
cation of Diseases—How He Saved Himself.
from the Enterpriee, Mapleton, Minn.
To escape death after being given up by
four doctors, and bidden good-bye to family
and friends, is an experience not granted
every man. Yet it happened to Mr. Le Roy
Bowen, of Decoria township, Blue Earth Co.,
Minn.
Mr. Bowen is a farmer, but formerly re
sided in Mapleton, where he was clerk and
city marshall for a number of years. He is
a well-known member of the Masonic fra
ternity and is of sterling honesty and up
rightness of character.
His story is of the greatest interest. He
said:
“I was suddenly taken sick in the spring
of 1895. The doctor was summoned. He pro
nounced my case one of gravel and said the
pain was caused by the passage of a stone
from the kidneys to the bladder. I doctored
with him for three months, but was not bene
fited. Once a week I would have a bad spell
of two or three days duration, during which
I suffered untold agony.
“ Finally I went to Mankato and consulted
a specialist. He stated that I did n<t have
gravel, but thought it was rheumatism of the
stomach. I continued to visit him until the
end of August. Then I became completely
bedridden and sent for another dootor. He
called my complaint inflammation of the
bowels and treated me for that.
“ The doctor laid my case before the fac
ulty of Rush Medical College, Chicago, and
it was decided that I had neuralgia of the
stomach. I was treated for that until De
cember, but continued to grow worse. Then
the doctor said, ‘ I can’t do you any good.
All the help I know for you is an operation.’
‘Very well,’l replied, ‘go on and operate,
if that is left for me.’
" The appointed time came: the four doc-
“Blind Tom” As He Is Today.
“The name of Thomas Wiggins means
nothing to the majority of readers,”
writes John J. a’ Becket in the Septem
ber Ladies’ Home Journal. “Bui
Thomas Wiggins is ‘Blind Tom,’ a name
familiar to hundreds of thousands in this
country and abroad, who have heard the
piano played by this wonderful negro,
The impression that he is dead is f
pretty general one. As a matter of fac*.
Blind Tom has never been ill a day it
his life. On the banks of the Shrewsbui j
River, in a domain of over two bundled
acres of woodland, stands a picturesque
two-and-a-half-story wooden house with
a broad veranda. Here Blind Tom is at
home.
“His hands are not at all ‘piano hands.’
In place of the slender, long-fingered
hand which one so often sees in great
pianists, Tom’s hands are small and
plump, with lhe thumbs and tapering
fingers quite short.
“The strongest impression I bore awaj
was that of the sweet, contented life thi
poor, blind negro is leading. There was
pathos in it. I had expected to find i
wonder at the piano, and I did, for hit
untaught mastery of the instrument if
marvelous. From the time the Bethum
family left the dinner table to see whe
could be playing on the piano, and dis
covered the sightless pickaninny of foui
years perched on the stool, his littli
hands plucking uncanny melody frorr
the keyboard—from that time until now
he has had an unwavering devotion tc
the instrument whose music is his life.’

It Was Really Too Cruel.
The speaker had been giving a
most careful and finished imitation
of the extreme English pronunci
ation in her remarks when a puzzled
Englishman who was present whis
pered to his neighbor: “Really, I
not only can’t understand what she’s
saying, but I can’t make out what
language it is some outlandish
American patois, I suppose, that
I’ve never happened to run across.
I certainly never heard anything
like it before in any part of ths
world.”—New York Tribune.
How Norwegian Men Vote.
Some interesting particulars with
regard to this subject are given in
the Norsk Skibsforerfovening Tid
ende. Norwegian seamen, it ap
pears, are now entited to vote be
fore leaving their country if the
polling day is within three months
of their departure, or they can vote
at a foreign port within the same
time by having their votes register
ed and sent home through a Nor
wegian consul or through a notary,
if they are not on board a Norwe
gian ship. If on board a Norwegian
ship where there are not less than
four of the crew entitled to vote
then the captain and two of the
are to administer the polling. It is
not absolutely necessary to vote for
named persons. Votes may be given
for Liberal or Conservative candi
dates. Seamen who would vote
must provide themselves with a
proxy form, to be obtained from a
registrar of voters in Norway.
Banks as Speaker.
N. P. Banks as speaker of the house
was simply magnificent. He was
the beau ideal of a parliamen
tarian in form, voice and action.
“Sunset’ ’ Cox once said that “Banks’
methods in presiding were like the
music of the spheres.” His voice
rang out amid the wildest commo
tion and order instantly prevailed.

There is at least one law in Hun
gary which might be copied by oth
er countries of the world. This is
the prohibition applied to cripples
and people who are deformed enough
to offend the public eye from selling
papers on the public thoroughfares.
In addition children under 14 may
not be employed in the trade.
A story is told of the late Baron
Hirsch that conveys a valuable les
son. After writing a message an
nouncing the gift of a fortune to a
school the great millionaire went
over the telegram carefully a second
time, condensing it so as to save a
franc.
A report from the office of the
registrar general of England con
tains the intelligence that 225 wom
en reach the age of 100 years, while
only 85 men out of 1,000,000 count
the milestone of a century.
The highest church spire in Eu

Englishmen drink five times as
much tea as coffee; Americans eight
times as much coffee as tea.
There is about twice as much beef
as mutton consumed in Scotland and
England.
tors present examined me for two hours, then
they retired and consulted for the same length
of time. They concluded that they did not
know what ailed me. The head physician
asked permission to ‘cut,’ as he expressed
it, ‘and find out.’ I asked how big a place
he wanted to cut. He said ‘he thought four
inches far enough.’ I did not want any such
hide-and-seek game played with me, so the
operation did not occur. I continued under
the doctor's care, but my case was con
sidered hopeless. I made my will, balanced
my accounts and made every preparation for
death.
“Day after day was passed in intense
agony. As a last resort I told my hired
man to get a box of Dr. Williams’ Pink
Pills for Pale People. I had read consider
able about them and thought I would try
them. Immediately after beginning the use
of these pills I commenced to feel better and
in two weeks I was out of bed aud around,
thanks to Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale
People.”
I hereby certify the above statement is true,
io the best of my knowledge and belief.

Catarrh Can Be Cured
u By eradicating from the blood the scrof
g ulous taints which cause it. Hood's Sar
saparilla cures catarrh promptly and
y permanently, because it strikes at the
e root of the trouble.
,s The rich, pure blood which it makes,
a circulating through the delicate passages
is of the mucous membrane, soothes and
is rebuilds the tissues, giving them a ten
e dency to health instead of disease, and
o ultimately curing the affection.
3- At the same time Hood’s Sarsaparilla
ir strengthens, invigorates and energizes
® the whole sytem and makes the debili
jj. tated victim of catarrh feel that new life
o has been imparted.
Do not dally with snuffs, inhalants or
other local applications, but take Hood's
Sarsaparilla and cure catarrh absolutely
a and surely by removing the causes which
a which produce it.
