EVIL CONSEQUENCES OF DISSIPATION
ILLUSTRATED IN A STARTLING MAN
NER—THE GROCERYMAN’S COM
MENTS ON JOKINC.
“Come Hi,” said-the grocery
man to the bad boy,T?s the youth
stood on the steps in an uncer
tain sort of way, as though he did
not know whether he would be
u elconf^or not. “I tell you, boy,
I pity you. I understand your pa
has got to drinking again. It is
too bad. I can’t think of any
thing that humiliates a boy and
makes him so ashamed, as to
have a father that is in the habit
of hoisting in too much benzine.
A boy feels as though everybody
was down on him, and I don’t
wonder that such boys often turn
out bad. What started your pa
to drinking again ?”
“Oh, ma thinks it was losing
money on the Chicago races.
You see, pa is great on pointers.
He don’t usually bet unless he
has got a sure thing, but when he
gets what they call a pointer,
that is somebody tells him a cer
tain horse is sure to win, because
the other horses are to be pulled
back, he thinks a job has been
put up, and if he thinks he is in
side the ring he will bet. lie says
it does not do any hurt to bet, if
you win, and lie argues that a
man who wins lots of money can
do a great deal of good with it.
But lie had to walk home from
the Chicago races all the same,
and he has been steaming ever
since. Pa can’t stand adversity.
But I guess We have got him all
right now. He is the scartest man
you ever saw,” and the boy took a
can opener and began to cut the
zinc under the stove, just to see
if it would work as well on zinc as
on tin.
“What, you haven't been dis
secting him again, have you ?”
said the grocery man, as he pulled
a stool up beside the boy to hear
the news. “How did you bring
him to his senses ?”
“Well, ma has an jdoa that I
have got some sense yet, so I told
her that if she would do just as I
said, me and my chum would
scare pa so that he would 6 wear
off. She said she would, and we
went to work. First I took pa's
spectacles down to an optician,
Saturday night, had the glasses
taken out and a pair put in their
place that would magnify, and 1
took them home and put them in
pa's spectacle case. Then I got a
suit of clothes from chum's uncle’s
trunk, about half the size of pa’s
clothes. My chum’s uncle is a
very small man, and pa is corpu
lent. I got a plug hat three sizes
smaller than pa’s hat, and took
the name out of pa’s hat and put
it in the small hat. I got a shirt
about half big enough for pa, and
put his initials on the thing under
the bosom, and got a number
fourteen collar. Pa wears seven
teen. Pa had promised to brace
up and go to church Sunday morn
ing, and ma put these small
clothes where pa could put them
on. I told 111a, when pa woke up,
to tell him he looked awfully
bloated, and excite his curiosity,
and then send for me.”
“You didn't play * such a trick
as that on a poor old man, did
you ?” said the grocery man, as a
smile came over his face.
“You bet. Desperate diseases
require desperate remedies. Y ell,
ma told pa he looked awfully
bloated, and that his dissapation
was killing him, as well as all the
rest of the family. Pa said he
guessed he wasn’t bloated very
much buthe got up and put on
his spectacles and looked at him
self. His face looked as big as
two faces through the glasses, and
his nose was a sight. Pa looked
scared and Then held up his hand
and looked at that too. His
hand looked like a ham. Just
then I came it, and turned pale,
with some chalk on my face, and
I began to cry, and I said: “Oh,
pa, what ails you? You are so
swelled up I hardly knew you,”
Pa looking sick to his stomach,
and then he tried to get on his
pants. Oh, my, it was all I could
do to keep from laughing to see
him pull them pants on. The
pants wouldn’t come around pa
into ten inches, and pa said hemust
have eat something that disagreed
with him, and he laid it to water
melon. Ma stuffed her handker
chief in her mouth to keep from
lading when she see pa look at
hisself. The legs of the pants
were so tight pa couldn’t hardly
breathe, and he turned pale, and
said: “Henery, your pa is a
mighty sick man,” and then ma
and me beth laffed and he said we
wanted him to die so we could
spend his life insurance in riotous
living. But when pa put oil that
condensed shirt, ma she laid down
on the lounge and fairly yelled,
and I laffed ’till my side ached.
Pa got it over his head, and got
his hands in the sleeves, and
couldn’t get it either way, and he
couldh-t see us laugh, but he could
hear us, and he saidv '“ItVbhiffied'
funny, ain’t it, to have a parent
swelled up this way. If I bust you
will both be sorry.” Well, ma
took hold of one side of the
shirt, and 'I took hold of the other
and we pulled it on, and when pa’s
head come np through the collar
his face was fairly 7- blue. Ma told
him she was afraid he would have
a stroke of apoplexy before lie got
his clothes on, and I guess pa
thought so too. He tried to get the
collar on, but it wouldn’t go half
way around his neck, and lie look
ed in the glass and cried he look
ed so. He sat down in a chair and
panted, he was so out of'breath,
and the shirt and pants ripped,
and ya said there was no use liv
ing if he was going lo be a rival
to a fat woman in the side-show.
Just then I put the plug hat on
pa’s head, and it was so small it
w as going to roll off, whan pa tried
to fit it on his head, and then lie
took it oft’ and looked inside of it
to see if it was his hat, and when
he found his name in jt, he said:
“Take it away. My hejul is all
wrong too.” Then he told me
to go for. the doctor mighty
quick. I got the doctoj: and told
him what we were trying to do
with pa, and he said he would
finish the job. So the doc came
in and pa was on the lounge, and
when the doc saw him he said it
was luck he was called just as he
was, or we would have called an
undertaker. He put some pound
ed ice on pa’s head the first thing,
ordered the shirt cut open and we
got the pants off. Then we gave
pa an emetic, and had his feed
soaked, and pa said: “Doc, if
you will bring me out of this I will
never drink another drop.” The
doc told pa that his life was not
worth a button if he ever drank
again, and left about half a pint
of sugar pills to be fired into pa
yery five minutes. Ma and me
sat up with pa all day Sunday,
and Monday morning I changed
the spectacles, and along about
noon pa said he felt as though he
could get up. Well, ;rou never
see a tickleder man than he* was
when he found the swelling had
gone down so he could get liis
pants and shirt on, and he says
that doctor is the best in this town.
Ma says I am a smart boy, and pa
has taken the pledge, and we are
all right Say, you don't, think
there is anything wrong in a boy
playing it on his p& once in &
while, do you. V .
“Not much! you have likely
saved your pa's life. No, sir, jok
ing is all right when by so doing
you can break a person of a bad
habit*” and the grocery man cut
a chew of tobacco off a piece of
plug that was on the counter,
which the boy had soaked in kero
sene. and before he had fairly got i
it rolled in his cheek when he spit
it out and began to gag, and as
the boy storted leisurely out tlie
door the grocery man said:
“Look-a-here don t you ever tam
per with my tobacco again, or b\
thunder, I’ll maul you,” and he
followed the boy to the door, spit
ting cotton all the way, and as the
boy went around the corner the
grocery man thought how different
a joke seemed when it was on
somebody else. And then he
turned to go in and rinse the kero
sene out of his mouth, and found a
sign on a box of new green apples,
as foilows: “Colic or cholera in
fantum. You pays your money and
take your choice.”— Peck't Sun.
The Tricks of the Cotton Business.
“How do you dink de cotton
pisness vill come oud dis year,
Misder Hoffenstein ?” said Her
man, as he dusted off a shoe box
and arranged an overcoat on a
pile of clothing.
“Yell, dot vas a pisness,” re

Advertising as a Keans of Credit.
Every established local news
paper receives subscriptions from
large cities, which puzzle the pub
lishers, but which the New York
Times lately explaned as follows:
A whole sale merchant in this
city, who had become rich at the
business, says his rule is that
when he sells a bill ot goods on a
credit to immediately subscribe
for the local paper of his debtor.
So long as his customer advertis
ed liberally and vigorously he
rested.but as soon us lie began to
contract his advertising space he
took the fact as evidence that
there was trouble ahead, and in
variably went for tlie debtor.
Said he: “The man who is too poor
to make his business known is too
poor to do business.” The with
drawal of an advertisement is
evidence of weakness that busi
ness men are not slow to act upon.
Illegal Toting.
Monroe Advertiser.
Much has been said about re
publican majorities in the new
congressional districts. mlf the
law forbidding persons to Tote
who have not paid their taxes, is
inforced, there will be no repub
lican majorities. Most of the tax-
defaulters are republicans and
they ought not be allowed to vote;
but in elections the eagerness of
candidates and their friends is
such that all are allowed to vote
bj' common consent. Each candi
date wants to get all the illegal
votes he can.
As a striking illustration of the
wholesale manner in which illegal
voting is done—both by irregular
and fraudulent means—we cite
the recent vote in- Talbot count’ 7
on the fence law. The election
was contested and out of twelve
precincts, nine were thrown out,
and of the remaining three, about
one-third of the votes were rejec
ted. The causes of this were three
—illegality in making the returns,
illegality in character of the bal
lots cast, and -disqualification of
tl^e voters by reason of non-pay
ment of taxes.
In Monroe county the voters who
have not paid their taxes amount
to fully one-third among the ne
groes; among the whites the pro
potion is much smaller. We pre
sume it is about the same way in
other counties. None of these
ought to be allowed to vote, and
yet all of them are—by general
consent. In such a case, general
consent is general cannivance at
fraud. What is to finally become
of a country whose officers are
elected repeatedly by fraudulent
and therefore corrupt—votes ?
Public opinion is entirely too lax
in this matter. We need a change
of sentiment which will jirevent
a tax-defaulter from voting—no
matter if he is willing to vote the
democratic ticket. We need to
learn that every illegal vote is
hurtful to our free institutions no
matter if it is cast “on our side.”

The Constitution prints the
following melancholy romance:
“Sam Hill’s widow /gain comes
to public notice. It is pardona
ble to call her widow, as the Wily
Sam is dead to her and the bal
ance of this section. This time
she appears in the Jiglit of a lit-
gant. In DeKalb Superior Court
Mrs Toccoa S. Hill’ has instituted
suit for divorce against her hus
band, Samuel H. Hill. The story
of this woman's life is lull of ro
mance of a readable sort. She
married Sam Hill, a. well-known
sporting man, wiien she was quite
yo ingj and it. may tie said quite
handso me also. Hill was confid
ing and Was away from home a
great deal, while his wife was
drifted into a whirlpool of gayety
which ruined her, and several
others, among them her husband.
To make a stale story short, Sam
Hill became aware of his wi^s
infidelity and of the fact that
John Simmons, a prominent young
man of Atlanta, was one of her
frequent companions in her noc
turnal tours. He looked for Sim
mons and found him in the Na
tional Hotel taking a drink.
“Draw,—you, you've got to do it.”
said Hill, and with that he shot
Simmons in the head, and he fell
dead at his feet. Hill gave him
self up, was tried and convicted,
and on a recommendation to mer
cy was sentenced to the peniten
tiary for life. Pending a motion
for new trial he was adjudged in
sane. He was sent to the asylum
and by unlocking numerous doors
with a false key escaped to the
outside, scaled a high wall and
fled. He has never been recap
tured. His wife went to Pathers-
ville, in DeKalb county, where
she has since lived. There is no
reason why .she should not have a
divorce, and she will probably get
it.”
