Dear Standard:—As wo lenvo todaj T another jump westward, I’ll give you a parting shot—a Parthian shot,as it wero. Our sojourn here, the latter part of it has beon seriously marred by four days of fairly steady rains, but on the whole it has boon pleasant and instructive. We hear away memories that will be pleasant to call up always. A most gratifying but not unexpected fonturo of our visit hero was to learn of tho warm esteom in which our fellow- townsman, Mr. Wm. Parker, and his family aro hold by thoir old friends in the Crescent City. Wo brought to a fow of them letters introductory from him, and to this eiroumstanco aro we indebted largely for our pleasant so journ boro. When I told them, as I glad to do, that to his skill and energy and administrative Ability Co- dartown was'indebtod largely for three nourishing ootton mills, they said thoy wero not at all surprised at it, and that if wo didn’t head him off in sorno way ho would build more. I wish wo hod dozens of him, but as thoro are no du plicates I suppose wo shall have to bo content with ono—“Unam.sed loonom.” Wo wore to stop next at Houston, but as the weather bureau roports the.same kind of weather there that we aro leav ing New Orloans to escape wo will skip it and try to find a dry spot about Ban Antonio, No man la bettor known in tho stato of Nebraska than Mr. Carl T. Roberta, contractor and mason. A typical Amor- lean—active, shrewd and full of busi ness sagacity. lie is not only a provider for his family, but a protector. In a recent letter to Dr. Hartman he writes, among other things, as follows: “Our boy, James, had tho membranous croup, and aftor ho recovered he was subject to repeated r.ttacks of lung fovor. Our boy, Charlie, was also subject to at tacks of pneumonia and pleurisy. Our third boy, John, was subject to fovor and ague (malarial) and liver trouble. Your remedy, Peruna, curod my boys entirely, and now I have three of tho healthiest boys in tho statoof Nebrusk Which I attribute to your modiclno. My Wife had stomach trouble which Pcruua family >vo havo used nineteen bottles of Peruna, and havo thus saved $500 in doctors* bills. I am a contractor and mason by trade, and am known all over Nohraska. I have had a stomach trou- blo which has boon greatly relieved by your romody, Peruna, for which .1 am still taking it. We think ltlsthegreat- ost medicine on earth.’*—C. T. Roborts, Falls City, Nebraska. Mr. T. G. Walkor, Carnelro, Kansas, writes: “It is with pleasure that I re port that 1 am hotter than I havo been for many years. I believe Peruna is without a doubt tho best medicine that was over usod in a family. It has cured my norvousnoss, with which I had boon aillictod for a great number of years.” It is a fact of over-increasing astonish- and provident peoplo will, for tho neglect of sosimploa precaution ns to havo a bottlo of Peruna at hand, bring upon themselves tho needless suffering and foolish expense that n practitioner of mediciue-is forced to witness over:, dav. As soon as the value of Peruna Is fully appreciated by every household, both as a preventive and cure of these affections, tens of thousands of lives will be saved, and hundreds of thou- sands of chronic, lingering cases oi disease prevented. Peruna Is a house hold safeguard.

Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is the mother’s favorite. It is pleasant nnd safe for children to tako and it always cures. It is intended especially for coughs, colds, croup and whooping cough, and is tho best medicine made for the diseases. There is not the least danger in giving it to children, for it contains no opium or other injurious drug and may he given as confidently to a babe ns to an adult. For sale by E. Bradford. Miss Bessie Lowry, of Cedartown,was in tho city last week, the guest of Miss Eunice Nixon.—Carrollton Free Press. Persons who suffer from indigestion can not expect to live long, because they cannot eat the food required to nourish the body, and the products of the undigested foods they do eat poison tlie blood. It is important to cure in digestion as soon as possible, and the method of doing this is to use the pre paration known as Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. It digests what you eat and re stores all the digestive organs to per- fectrhealth. E. Bradford. Probably Eve never knew that she was happy so much of tho time because she hadn’t any neighbors to talk about. Worn a A Prominent Chicago Speaks.

Some men are so learned that they seem to think it uneccessary to use common sense. When threatened by pneumonia oi any other lung trouble,prompt relief i: necessary, as it is dangerous to delay We would suggest that One Minute Cough Cure be taken.as soon as indioa tions of having taken cold are noticed. It cures quickly and its early use pre vents consumption. E. Bradford. Royal Baking POWPEH Absolutely Ipure Makes the food more delicious and wholesome BROOKS—TURNER. A Codnrtox Married t a Young Lady Happily I Columbits Gaud uotor. At tho homo of Mr. and Mrs. O. S. Chester, 408 Eleventh street at throe o’clook this aftornoon, Miss Myrtico Brooks was united in marriage to Mr. G. J. Turner by Dr. W. H. Smith, in the presence of a number of frieuds and admirers of tho young couple. Thoy left immediately after the ooro- mony for Hurtsboro on a short visit, from which place they go to Montgom ery, Ala., and Cedartown, Ga., on a visit. They will return to this city, whore they will reside. Miss Brooks is a charming and accom plished young lady of Cedartown and was on a visit to Mrs. Chester here at tho time of tho marriage. Mr. Tumor is one of the popular conductors of the Central railroad, and is well known in this city, whore he has resided some time.—Columbus Ledger, 15th. THE UNSPEAKABLE TURK. He Scorim All Effort but Military Service and Agriculture. A Turk thinks It the most natural thing In the world to lose n province and, having lost It, to quit and llvo elsewhere. lie talks quite complacent ly of leaving Constantinople some day, lie will go over to Asia and found an other capital. lie originates nothing, lie takes wlmt he finds without as similating It nnd remains profoundly Turkish. ITe leaves no trace of his occupation except ruins. Practically there Is nothing at Belgrade, Sofia nnd Athens to show that for centuries they were Turkish cities. All occupations, except agricultural* and military service, are distasteful to him. Yet there are two other charac teristics even more Important than these. The first Is his sense of disci pline. It Is this which keeps together the apparently tottering fabric of the Turkish empire. It makes the half fed, half clothed soldier rendy to endure every privation nnd prevents the cor ruption und Incapacity of the officers from producing the anarchy which would be Inevitable In any other coun try. Sedition Is unknown. Even com plaints are rare, nnd were n holy war proclaimed there Is not a man who would not bo prepared to die In de fense of the system of extortion which grinds him down. Ills second characteristic Is Ills lazi ness, In spite of the laborious Indus try oTf the Turkish peasant. The fact Is that the Turk Is too proud to do many things, too stupid to do others. Ills religion inculcates a fatalism which tends to a conviction that ef fort Is useless.—London Telegraph. One way to remove dandruff i suit an Indian. to A Humoronii Turk. A typical Turkish humorist was Kho ja Nasreddin Effeudl, who lived In the fourteenth century. Of him this story Is told: “One Friday the Uboja’s fellow vil lagers Insisted on his preaching a ser mon In the mosque, which he had nev er done, not having any oratorical gifts. He mounted the pulpit sorely against his will and, looking around at the congregation, asked In despair, ‘Oh, true believers, do you know what I am going to any to you?’ They naturally replied, ‘No.’ 'Well, 1 am sure I don’t,’ be said and hurriedly left the mosque. The congregation were, however, deter mined to have their sermon nnd next Friday forced him again Into the pul pit When he again put the sume ques tion. they replied by agreement, *Yes.' ‘Oh, then,’ he said, ‘if you know I needn’t tell you.’ and again escaped. On the third Friday the villagers made what they thought must be a successful plan. They got the khoja Into the pul pit and when he asked what had now become his usual question replied. 'Some of us know and some of us don't’ 'Then.' replied the kboja. Met those of you who know tell those who don’t’ After this the congregation re signed themselves to do without ser mons.”—“Turkey In Europe,” by Odys ecus. Pay up your subscription. San Antonio, Tex., Jan. 8, 1001. Sure enough, when wo got hero it was raining! Is it rainy everywhere, or does this shower pursue us? Wo flew through tho Louisiana cane und rice fields all yesterday afternoon. Wc crossed to tho west bank of tho Mississippi in a boat—oars and all just like you’d paddle over Big Oedar in a skiff, only with greater apparent ease and loss ado. In faot, if I hadn’t beon observing olosoly to see how it was done, I newer should have knowu it was being done. Then away wo sped westward over hundreds of miles of the richest land and tho levelcst road-bed thoro is in the world, perhaps. From New Orleans to Hous ton, I do not believo there is a out knee-deep. And it is ono vast stretch of sugar and riee plantations alternat ing with tho picturesque but dismal looking moss-hung cypress swamps,and punctuated all along with the tall black chimneys of tho rioo and sugar mills. What a continent-builder is that deep, silent, mighty old Father of Waters— tho Mississippi! From Baton Rouge to tho Gulf—some 300 miles—evory inch of this vast rich delta bus boon wrested from tho sea and given to the teeming millions who are fed and clothed by its products by this liquid leviathan. Go ologists say so, aud prove it, inoredible ns it appoars. But when wo consider that here is a current 8,000 yards wide nnd nearly 800 feet deep moving at the rnto of 5 miles an hour, and every drop in it laden with its inoremont of earth to bo deposited at tho end of n ten-thousand-milo journey — only an atom of earth displacing an atom of water - a small affair to bo sure, and yet an aggregation of such small affairs is driving back a sullen, mighty ocean and oxtending the boundary of a continent. A wee drop of water ns it slips quietly out from under tho . crusted snows of the far Northwest pioks up its tiny burden of soil—not just any old soil, either, but tho very richest, most solu ble plant food there is to bo had—and goes toddling nearly the length of tho great North American continent, toss ing and tumbling over many a rough boulder at first, but holding tenaciously to its bundle and its oourso until it reaches its goal and deposits its burden at the ooean’s rim and forces it back a mite. Now comes an air current from away down in the Carribean Sea caper ing across the Gnlf, picks up our little friend from the mountains and carries him back to bis cool, soft bed in tho snow. It is a curious and interesting fact that the areas drained by the Mississippi are largely re-supplied with moisture by breezes from tho Gulf—a kind of endless watery chain. This exenrsion into the domain of physical geography is carrying me rather far afield. I believe I was in Texas when I strayed off. Wanderer.

At last 1 'became so exhausted that 1 could walk no longer I was tired, I was hungry, I was everything but dlscour aged. Just about the time when I reached extreme physical exhaustion l came upon a portion of a street where the board sidewalk was considerably elevated. 1 waited for a few minutes till I was sure that no pnssersby could sec me and then crept under the side walk aud lay for the night upon the ground, with my satchel of clothing for a pillow. Nearly nil night I ettild hear the tramp of feet over my head. The next morning I found myself somewhat refreshed, but 1 was ex tremely hungry, because It had been a long time since I had had sufficient food. As soon as It became light enough for me to see my surroundings I notic ed that 1 was ucnr u large ship and that this ship seemed to bo unloading u cargo of pig Iron. I went at once to tb< vessel and asked the captain to permit me to help unload the vessel In order to get money for food. The captain, a white man, who seemed to he kind hearted, consented. I worked long enough to earn money for my break fast. nnd It seems to me. as I remember It now*, to have been about the best breakfast that I have ever entj Booker T. Washington In Outlook. Little Hnrry’i Diplomacy. Little Horry was very fond of sweet things to eat. nnd especially of pud dings. which were his favorite dessert. Accordingly his dinuers were made a burden to him. since hlR parents per sisted that he must make his meals off the substnutials nnd leave what Harry called the good things until last. One day while Harry’s nostrils were tickled with the tantalizing odors of his most favored pudding a scheme was born lu his brain that points his way to future greatness. When his mother put before him a plate of meat and potatoes he eyed It a moment in apparent ecstasy; then, shoving it re gretfully away, he said: “1 declare that looks so good 1 guess I’ll leave It till the very last thing and get rid of that pudding first!”—What to Eat.
