PHYSICIAN', lieiug impressed with H tlie large number of boys under fifteen years of age whom lie ob¬ served smoking, was led to inquire into tlie effect tlie habit had upon tlie general health. He took for his pur¬ pose thirty-eight boys aged from nine to fifteen, and carefully examined them. In twenty-seven of them lie discovered injurious traces of the habit. In twenty-two there were vari ous disorders of the circulation and digestion, palpitation of tlie heart, and a more or less marked taste for strong drink. In twelve there was a frequent Weeding of the nose; ten had disturbed sleep, and twelve had slight ulceration of the mucous membrane of the mouth, which disappeared on ceasing from tlie use of tobacco for some day* Tlie doctor treated them all for weakness, but with little effect until the smoking was discontinued, when health and strength was soon restored. Tlie Union Signal says: “The iiest news we have heard lately is that At torney Carlisle, whose business it is to give legal opinions to tlie Hoard of Directors of tlie Columbian Exposition, has made tlie following decision, to wit: 1st. Tlie prohibition ordinance of Hyde Dark, • 'hicago’s chief suburb on tlie South side, makes it illegal to sell intoxicating drinks iu the midway phiisauee; and 2nd. A State law never yet rejiealeil, forbids the sale of intoxicants within two miles of the place where any agri¬ cultural, horticultural or mechanic fair is held, thus ruling out such sale from the entire ground.” * * * Our national yearly drink hill is tl,3to>,000,00<». Number of voters in the United Stati-s, 18,000,000. That is, an average national tax of if 100 to each voter to support tile liquor abomina¬ tion! * * * One of the most active and best in¬ formed Glasgow ministers 1ms giveu it as liissolid conviction that some thirty thousand men aud women go to bed drunk in Glasgow every Saturday uiglit. * * * It is proposed by Frances E.

Any of tlie cheap nostrums will Hot effect a cure —in fact, none of them will, Don’t triile with life and prolong agony. Get Dr. Drummond's Lightning Rem¬ edy, and a speedy cure iu certain. It costs *5 a liottle, but one liottle is worth a hundred of anything else, and for that reason it is the cheapest when a cure is wanted. Sent to any address by prtqiaid express ou recipt »f price.

A Visit to ‘East Tennessee and Northeast Georgia. Having recently visited Harriman in East Tennesee aud Demorest in North¬ east Georgia, I thought some account of the trip might interest the readers of the Eagle, so I will write it up in a brief, hasty manner. Am working too hard to devote much time to writing. I went south as a health seeker. Had a severe attack of la-grippe last win¬ ter which left me with a settled cough, and hoping to find relief ip a warmer started in-ate and a highei- altitude I March 10th for Harriman, Tenn. The weather was very pleasant here hut the next morning at Chicago it commenced snowing and as we pro cecdetl southward the storm grew worse. At Sommerset, Ky., the snow was about 18 inches deep. When we reached Harriman the morning of tlie 18th tlie ground was covered with snow, and we had about three days of real winter weather. They said it was colder then it had been during tlie winter. The morning of the lDth it snowed aud tlie wind blew, and alto¬ gether it was an unpleasant introduc¬ tion to tlie sunny south. At the hotel they accused me of bringing the Iowa weather with me but 1 told them that when 1 left home there was nothing so disagreeable as that to bring. The storm extended south into Mississippi, but did not reach northeast Georgia. This was probably owing to its being protected by tlie Blue Ridge moun¬ tains. Harriman is on tlie Emory river, a brunch of tlie Tennessee, it is in tlie coal ami iron region anil lias two rail¬ roads. The company that is building up tlie towii lias plenty of capital ami owns a large tract of mineral land aud is building a eoal aud iron railroad 30 luiles long through theirlands. Where the town stands, in January 1800 there were two farm houses and a few negro cabins; in January 1803 there were over 4,000 inhabitants with about a dozen in mufacturiug establishments anil some of them on a very large scale. The town is still growing rapidly, pro* hibitiou of the liquor traffic is put in every deed. The tojru is built on tlie river bottom aud on some low hills and lias Emory Ridge on one side and Waldens Ridge ou tlie other. From its situation and from what those who have tried it say it must be a pretty warm place in summer. Climb the hills that surround it and get up on the plateau and you will Hud it very pleasant during tlie summer, Doubt less the town will be partly built ou the plateau. 1 was up on Walden’s Ridge where I could look over the country for 30 or 80 miles and it seem¬ ed to l>e quite broken iu all directions. It is a heavy timbered country having nearly all kinds of timlter that we have, liesides pilie, sweet gum, syca¬ more, Ac. Tlie soil is good (of course not equul to Iowa prairie soil), it is adapted to fruit growing, grain and stock raising. Tlie town is settled largely by northern people. They have good churches aud schools aud very good society. They have electric lights and water works, the water be¬ ing taken from the river. I stayed some six days in Harriman and want¬ ed to stay longer but was not able to do so. Was seeking health aud liad I found it there should probably liave stayed awhile and then returned home without going farther. The coal smoke irritated my lungs aud my cough grew rapidly worse, was told by a leading physician in Harriman that 1 hod lletter get out of tlie coal smoke. The last night at Harriman my cough was so bad that I did not get to sleep at ull and so tlie nest morning I start¬ ed for Demorest in northeast Georgia. This section according to tlie United States census re[iorts, is in the health¬ iest part of the United States. It has tlie lowest death rate and tlie fewest cases of consumption of any portion of the country. In less than two weeks after reaching Demorest I wrote home that I was well. The cougli was cured by the (lure air, which to, rfter all, tlie iiest medicine for tlie iuugs. Doubtless most pemou* would enjoy good health iu Harrimau, es(>ecially if They would liveu(ioii the plateau.

READ IH CARE Good, Interesting Reading For Every¬ body -Men, 'Women and Children. 0 H to lie borne through the year on tlie wings of praise to God, to mount from year to year, and raise at each ascent a loftier aud yet lowlier song unto tlie God of our life! Tlie vista of a praiseful life will never close, but continue throughout eterni¬ ty. From psalm to psalm, from hal¬ lelujah to hallelujah, we will ascend the hill of the Lord, until we come into the Holiest of all, where, with veiled faces, we will bow tiefore the Divine Majesty in the bliss of endless adoration. The river of God is full of water; but there is not one drop of it that takes its rise in early springs. God will have no strength used iu his own bat¬ tles but tlie strength which he himself imparts; and I would not have you that are now distressed in tlie least discouraged by your sorrow, aud your emptiness is but the preparation for your lieiug tilled, and your casting down is but tlie making ready foryour lifting up.—C. li. Spurgeon. Tiiere is no true aud constant gen¬ tleness without humility. While we are so fond of ourselves, we are easily offended with others. Let us lie per¬ suaded that nothiug is due to us, and then nothing will disturb us. Let us often tiiiuk of our own infirmities, and We shall become indulgent towards those of other.—Feuelon. No man must come between the seeker ami (rod, for tlie iiest of men are but men at tlie best. Not even tlie ordinances of religion can meet the need of tlie people, though they lie God-appointed. They were meant to lead us to God, and not to non substi¬ tute for him.—C. It. Spurgeon. If we take people as we find them, welcoming all their good points and pass over the others, and being kind aud generous to all, we shall come much nearer to tlie truth about them than if we labor to make a critical analysis of minds and hearts of which we can see only a few fragments. Patience is a prominent Christian grace. Au eminent Scotch pastor in a late sermon on jiatieuee urged tlie im¬ portance of it* manifestation iu tlie family, witii the stupid, with the bad, with ourselves and with God. These are points on which ull may preach u sermon to themselves.—< !iiri*tiau in¬ quirer. Tlie highest duties oft are found Lying ou tlie lowest ground; in hidden and unnoticed ways, lu household werkson common days, Whate'er is done for God alone, Thy God acceptable will own. —Moused. God's benefit* come not alone, but one is a pledge of another. A drop of dew from Heaven is prognostic of a gracious shower, which nothing can draw dry but ingratitude.—Farindon. Look iqiou the success and sweet¬ ness of thy duties a* very much delud¬ ing upon the keeping of thy heart closely with God iu them.—Fluvel. $500 Will be Given For any case of Rheumatism which cannot lie cured by l>r. iliummond's Lightning Remedy. Tlie proprietors do not hide this offer. I*ut print it iu bold type on all their circulars, wra|e pers, printed matter, and through tlie coluiues of uewspa(iers everywhere.

Suddenly one of them clapped his hands for the rest to come to order. “Say, boys! Hold up a minute, will you?” he oried. “I’ve found some¬ thing new to buy, and I’ve thought of suci^^g^jebe. way's pr^aciiin’ You know temper¬ Tim ance —” They drew together and talked and laughed in whispers. Half an hour after, they were making their way to Tim’s home. He lay propped up in bed, pasting little three-cornered paper bags. He was paid live cents for six hundred If he was well, and could handle his past-brush swiftly, he might make twenty-lire cents a day. Near him his mother worked at a machine, stitching pantaloons. Tim laid down his brush and watch¬ ed her. “Three times round the canvass in tlie bottom,” he counted. “Then the linings in the waistbands, and three pockets liesides witli three corners on every oue, and two stays to put on, and eight buttons, and eigWt button holes, and the buckle ou the hack straps, ami the ticket to sew ou—find only seven cents a pair!” “Never mind, Tim,” his mother said, “we can keep a roof-over our heads and have something to eat every day. See the sun coining in! Every one can feel tiie sun.” She turned her head to hide the tears in her eyes. “But 1 want to do something worth while,” Tim said. “I cau't seeiu to do auytliing. 1 promised, you know, to do ali 1 could for Temperance.” “At it, even whep he’s sick,” some one whispered at the door. There was a merry rat-a-tat-tat, and live boys trouqied into the room. “Sorry you ain't topside up old fel¬ low,” said the leader, Jo Davis. “Thought we'd bring you a bite o’ Californy with our best wishes.” lie held up a beautiful, heavy bunch of purple gra|ies. “Taste one,” lie said, picking off one of the biggest globes, and putting it to Tirn.s lips, tlie other boys crowded around. Tim smiled gratefully, then Hushed, trembled, and burst into a Hood of tears. “You’ve made me break my pledge," he sobbed. Tlie grapes were of rubber, filled with liquor. Tim's mother started angrily to her feet. “How dare you,” she cried, ‘be so cruel to mv poor boy! You know lie’s sick of heart trouble, and there’s a pint of whiskey in them wicked grapes. Do you know what a pint of whiskey can do? If he’d eat them, Ids heart'd heat tweuty-six thousand times extra to-day.” The.boys slunk out of the room. Tim’s tears were dried, hi* thin band was busy with his brush, when hack they tramped again. They forgot to knock this time. Every boy carrigd a pail on a stick across his shoulder—one nice new tin one, one mended with a rag, one made of a drum and a wire, oue out of a hat and a string, and one out of a long lioot. Jo w as speaker again. “We feel awful low down and mean, Tim,” lie said, “for havin’ fooled you, and if you’ll please to accept of the in¬ sides of these pails, and make things all square, we'll be no end obliged.” Tlie pails were lowered to the l»ed aud emptied of apples, oranges, candy, cake, iiotutoes. a cabbage, and a big chuck-steak with a buneli of grajies tied to its bone— all that the >>oys' collected copiiors could buy. Tim's eyes dance*] with pleasure, his cheeks were rosy. Suddenly his face grew* grave. “Oh boys!'" lie said. “It’s clegaut; but if you'll just promise here on the sjiot never to carry one drop of strong drink In a l«*d ft* anybody, anything.” it'd make me feel weiier than Jo's face Hushed. He hesitated a moment, then lifted Ins empty pail ou its stick. “Shoulder!” he eried. The (tails went up on their owners' sticks. We’ll never carry no liquor for no liody no more," Jo said very loudly and slowly, “so long as Tim JonesTI stay round among us. Ex'eryLody present, please say Me! t on)rayries, leave tlie rooml” Nobody left tlie room. Tim's mother stoojied and kissed him softly. j “Where’s them pledges to lie had?" Jo asked. “We’re up to more tricks ] than you. Timmy. You'll see we'll keep 'em straight and sure." ! Ami they did—even when Tim's jtoor loyal heart sl<>p|te<l lieatiug. “Hod bless him!" said Jo Davis in his hale old age. “If any oue ever did what he could. jt was Tim. Just think wliathe save*!

THE GOOD CAUSE GAINING IN POPULARITY. A VERY ENCOIMNG OUTLOOK. It i« .tir-ninc tq he led asj a Right, To Be No Longer Withheld. T ® Tomk.v are to blame when they it I refuse to sec that woman’s X I sphere is everywhere whereever humanity is; but on tlie shoulders of men rests tlie stupendous reproach that they set up a small barricaded place they called woman's sphere am! locked tlie door of it, with the women inside; and then attributed to tlie im¬ prisoned women all the evils that en¬ sued outside, for the reason that these same W’omen were not outside either to conquer or prevent them.—Mrs. Oriuis ton C’lmnt. Mrs. Harriet Taylor Upton writes iu tlie Warren (O.) Tribune: “Senator Sherman lias for many years believed in the justice of political rights for women, but Mrs. Sherman, as her cau¬ tious, conservative nature would sug¬ gest, used rather to oppose tlie idea. A If late, however, she has changed her mind and is out-spoken about it. Mrs. Noble, the wife of the Secretary of the Interior, is a strong lieliever in woman’s political enfranchisement.” Tlie Massachusetts Woman Suffrage Association will offer a huuilred dol¬ lars this year in tive-doihir prizes for tlie Iiest essays in favor of woman by the pupils iu different high and grammar schools of tlie State; and Mr. Francis J. Garrison has add¬ ed another hundred dollars, for tlie same purpose, from Sewall fund. Tlie Colorado State convention of tlie People's Party, held in Pueblo, May 18, passed a ringing equal suff¬ rage resolution, uml requested every county in tlie State to send to tlie State nominating convention, to lie held tuis summer, one delegate at large, said delegate to lie a woman. Tile very evils which man feared would come to woman through tlie use of tlie ballot have already come to her through not having it. Living Issues. County Convention Last Thursday, lliiiiersbaiu county held its first Prohibition convention. Abontthirty assembled in the court house at (,'larkesville, for the purpose of organizing tlie county aud appoint¬ ing delegutes to tlie State convention. C. E. Hendrickson was appointed chairman aud C. Bangs, secretary. Committees were appointed to effect organizations for Congressional and Senatorial districts. Ten delegates and ten alternates wire appointed to attend tlie State convent ion in Athiutu, on tlie 7th. A central committee was appointed, consisting of six memiiers, with power to add six more to tlie uumlier. A committee was appointed ou reso¬ lutions, who presented the following platform, which, after short talks by Fitch, Sibley and Safford, was unani¬ mously adopted: PLATKnltXI. Tlie Habersham county Prohibition (tarty iu convention assembled, present tlie following as their declaration of principles: Resolved, first: Tlie two great ques¬ tions now pressing upon tlie American people for settlement are: 1. The projier settlement of tlie rela¬ tion of labor and capital toeaeh other, aud tlie protection of the former against theeneroacliments of tiie latter. 3. The protect ion of the home against the financial aud moral ruin resulting from tiie legalized saloon. Resolved—That tlie National Pro¬ hibition party, offers in its platform, the only reasonable solution of tlie difficulties presenting themselves hi these questions, and we therefore de elate our endorsement of tlie said party and its platform. Resolved- That we believe tlie time has come to pres* tie- claims and prin¬ ciple* of tlie National Prohibition party throughout ail tlie States of the Union. While the committee on resolutions was out, tlie audience was entertained with short *[ieeehes by Hahuenkratt and Greeu. A number of tlie leading citizens of • 'larket-vjlle were present, including Mayor Edwards. Judge Sutton. yer Bass*. Dr. West and many others.

In the Christian Secretary, the Bap¬ tist paper of Connecticut, in its issue of May 11, isfound thefollowing: “A LITTLE ADVICE. A little advice to our readers on the eve of another Presidential election may not be out of place. (1.) Do not allow your interest politics to keep you away front the prayer religion! meeting, or ifcpoftxct kid yopr cu"1ftend jute rest in it is the caucuses and he|.r the political speeches but much more important that you attend to the things that pertain to the Kindorn of Christ. (3.) Do not believe all the slanders, insinuations, lies and misrepresenta¬ tions of the papers or the orators. None of the candidates are as bad as they are represented, though some are of course worse than others. (3.) Do not get angry with those who disagree with you but be sure and keep a sweet spirit. (4.) Vote only for men of character and ability and who have those ideas of patriotism and government that yon desire to see prevail. The dema¬ gogue lias altogether too large a place in American politics, and is in control of our cities, and threatens the safety of our institutions. Persons who hid for place and power should lie sent to the rear. (5.) Be loyal to your party, but let that loyalty be intelligent. Do not vote for Satan if lie is a Republican, nor the devil if he is a Democrat. Look over the histories of the parties and their present attitude on the questions of the day and decide which party you will support in this way.” How is that for a religious journal? “Be loyal to your party.” Only two parties mentioned, Republican and Democratic! “Be loyal to your party,” us Republicans or Democrats, we sup¬ pose that means. That same paper had, some weeks ago, a severe, sharp article against the Prohibition party; so, we suppose of course, that the above article or “advice” means to vote with one of the old parties, llow long will religious patters support license parties?—A Baptist, in Wester¬ ly, R.

The occasion was his first apiiearance, aud he took for his text, “Tlie feeding of tTYe multitude.” Being a triile ner¬ vous he mixed the words up a lilt and said: “And they fed 10 people with 10,000 loaves of bread and 10,000 fishes.” An old irishman thereupon called out, “That’s no miracle; begorra 1 could do that uieself,” which tlie priest overheard. Theuext Sunday the priest announc¬ ed tlie same text, hut he had it right this time, and said, “And they fed 5,000 people on live loafs of bread aud two fishes.” lie waited a second or two, and thru leaned well over the pulpit and re¬ marked. “Ami could you do that Mr. Murphy?" “And sure, your reverence, 1 could,” replied Murphy. “And how could you do it, Mr. Mur¬ phy?” said the priest. "Sure, you revereuce, I could do it with what was left over from last Sun¬ day.” S|Mire Moments.
