SEEING HELL DAILY.
*'ilell is in the sun!”
Wuh this statement Rev. Zed II.
Copp, assistant pastor ol Bethany
Preibvterian Chapel, in Washing
ton, startled his congregation re
cently.
“I know that is a startling state*
meni,” continued the minister.
‘‘Whet, the thought first flashed
cio-s my mind it frightened me
terribly. But since then I have
searched the entire universe time and
again, and find nowhere a place that
sj nearly corresponds t » the Bible
eetimtion ol heii as does the sun.
“This not a hasty opinion. I have
been studying it out lor eight lorg
years.
“You sav it is impossibly? Not
so. Many things are seemingly itos
possible. The sun meets all the re
quirements of the Bible 1 find ab-
soluteiy no diffic ulty m associating
the two, You say that morally,
the sun could not be hell because
it blesses man. But remember,
God’s Word says, ‘God makes the
wrath of men, and devils to serve
him.’ No higher testimonial -ot
God’s majesty and power could be
spoken than to say that He took the
very abode of sata —man’s arch
enemy—and made it bless man ”
Rev. M;. Copp preached from the
theme, “A Scientific liell,” using the
parable of the rich man and Lazarus
as his text. He declared hell to be
a scientific necessity, and pointed
out that history shows .hat those
peoples which do not aebevs in fu-
ture punishment have always been
away down in the scale of morals
and intellectual attainment.
“That the sun is hell,” declared
the speaker, “seems clear enough to
me, but. I shall not be dogmatic
about it. As tor bell itself, there is
such a place. It it somewhere! It
it a scientific necessity, demanded
by the laws of nature. ‘There is a
gulf fixed’ between it and heaven.
It is the penitentiary of the uuiverse.
‘ No, hell was not made for mao—
God forbid—but ‘for the devil and
bis angels.’ But man csd get into
it by persistent, deliberate wrong
doing. Such a man is drawn to hell
is natural j as is the stone drawn to
earth by the power ot gravity. There
s no oilier pla'-e for lorn to go. He
can’t i o to heaven; for he would de
file it, He must go somewhere, for
he can’t come back here. Therefore,
■ deHre hell to be a scientific nec
essity. Only man can put himself
into it.”

Oklahoma will come into the
union vith the most drastic oro-
hibitiou law ever embodied in e
constitution fo the government of
men. It prohibits not only the
manufacture and sale of intoxicat
ing liquors, but does not allow
them to be brought into the state.
Let Oklahoma come with ner

Union.
The Turner County Banner an
nounces that it will support Griggs
f',r re election. All right if some
body don’t support him he can’t
run, and if he don’t run we will
miss lots of fun, says the Thomas-
ville Press Mr. Roddenberry has
been a consistent dynamic force
in democratic campaigns for Grig? s j
as well as in anti-liquor fights for
a number of years.
The late Senator Morgan was once
twitted because he had incurred the
anger of President Cleveland. Mr
M rgan replied: I was a senator
before Mr. Cleveland emerged from
obscurity, and will be a senator alter
be retiree from office/’ So a Geor
gia newspaper says when reminded
that it will not get a smile from the
new administration. It ;s really
tunny how nearly all truly great
men agree.
Congressman Griggs is dowD
from Mount Airy, his summer eirie,
looking after his political fences,
with the air of a man assured—ac-
ording to our Albany contempo
rary. The “assured air” man is not
always what bis “air” seems, bow*
ever—for there are thousands of
r itten rails and slip gaps in the
Judges political fences. _
TOO HANY LAWS.
It is stated by the press that near
ly a thousand bills have been mt:©
duced at this session of the legisla
ture. Ai d the session is young
yet.
A country with too much law is
li? tie better off in some respects
than a country witn no law, because
the multiplicity of statutes renders
the enforcement of ail of them im
possible. The non enforcement of
'aws tends to place in disprespect
the ones wnicb are disregarded, and
soon contempt for one becomes con
tempt for all. There m’ght thus he
evolved a condition of negative an-
archy. It has become generally
reef ginzed that there is a growing
evil in the tendency manifested in
all ol the states, as well as the nati
onal capital, toward over-legislation.
We are producing too many la vs.
Lawyers protest that they cannot
keep pace with the creation of new
statutes; that they are scarcely able
to digest one season’s crop of new
laws before another is ioisied upou
them, many of which they find taint
ed with unconstitutionally. \s a
matter, ot fact ibe legislators are so
busy grinding out new laws season
after season that the higher courts
will necessarily have to be enlarged
if the question of compliance with
the foundation of all laws is judicial
ly passed upon. Indeed, it has al
ready been twice done here in our
own state.
There is at least a partial remedy
foi this growing evil. It would not
only curtail the evil itself, but would
possess the furtner advantage to
the people ot a large saving in state
expenditures. The politicians would
uot like it, but their opinions are ^
small consequence when the peo
pie assert themselves. The remedy
is to do away with annual legislative
sessions. Except for extraordinary
purposes there is no need of sessions
of t 1 e legislature except biennially.
In an emergency the governor could
summons the legislators to assem
ble. It would be seldom, too, tnat
such a necessity would arise. The
subject is one which is b°giur.ing to
attract attention, and will ere long
force itselt for a decision.—Dawson
News.
Long Live Tne King!
If the popular cry throughout
European countries; while in Ameri
ca, the cry ot the presenc day is
“Long live Dr. King’s New Discov
ery, K ng of throat and lung reme
dies!” of which Mrs. Jula Ryder
Pane, Truor, Mass., snys: “It nevsr
fails to give immediate relief and to
quickly cure a cough or cold.” Mrs.
Paine’s opinion is shared by a ma
jority of the inhabitant of this coun-
try. New Discovery cures weak
lungs and sore throats after all oth
er remedies have failed; and for
cough and colds it’s the proven
remedy. Guaranted by all druggist.
50 cents and $l.oo. Trial bottle
free. «
is IT TRUE.
A special to the Augusta Chron
icle from Atlanta says: A sensation
was sprung in the meeting ot the
committee on education, from the
house of representatives, this after
noon when Dr. Mark Johnson, a
recent candidate for the office of
state school commissioner, charged
that 90 per cent, of the countv
school commissioners of the state of
Georgia are in collusion with the i
monumental book trust ofthe United
States He was speaking on the
b.l! providing for the election of
superintendents by th“ people. The
matter ot graft, atta -liing t. ■ many
positions of honor and trust in
Ge rgia, is realh becoming a men
ace to our mstiti ms, beyond doubt,,
but it ought to be required that the
man making-uch broad charges as j
Mr. Johnson here make ought to be j
rtqu red to make them good oy ^
proof or be branded a falsifier.
Before committing yourself to
a candidate study the office, its
needs and duties. Then consider
carefully the man, bis character
and qualifications. When this is
done a conscientious vote will put
the right man in the place.
The legislature is drinking Litliia
water at the state’s expense, an ! it
is said it will take §Soo to loot the
bill for the season. But that’s all
right if they’re really drinking wat
er —Ex. It isn’t all right, with
those who toot the bill. Might as
well ask the taxpayers to pay their
board, lodging and laundry bills.
“BEFO’ DAY” CLUBS.
The death knell of “Befo’ Day”
and “Starlight’’ clubs, organized by
negroes, principally in the country
districts, has been sounded by the
Georgia legislature.
The General Agriculture Commit*
tee ot the House has passed favor
ably the bill requiring all secret so
cieties, with the ♦ xception of col
lege fraternities, to obtain a license
from the Ordinary or County Com-
raissieners of the county in which it
prop ses to do business, after giving
bond in the sum of #l,ooo to §2o,ooo,
with approved resident sureties, the
approval to rest within the discre*
tion ot the officers named.
In speaking ut the bill Mr. Me-
Michael, the author, said: “There’s
a member ot this House who could
teli you how the murder of his wife
was shielded from the offi< ers of the
law through the actiyities ot one of
these societies. Their influence is
baneful, and this hill leaving large
discretion to the Ordinaries and
County Commissioners as to the
acceptance cf the boi ds, will w eed
them out.”
Jt : s generally believed that the
bill will go through without any
difficulty.

EDITORIAL N0TF5.
Gentlemen of the legislature dot
let us ha ve an effective anti-ciga
retie law and which can be en
forced. Let us have a law which
goes to ihe root of the evil and pre
vents Doys from using tobacco be
fore they have gotten their growth.
A law that cannot be enforced
hreeds contempt for the law.
The secret habit when indulged
ever rem ains secret. Evil thoughts
have a life and power ot their own.
Buddln long ago taught: “The
mind is everything; what you think,
you become. Solomon, earlier,
wrote: “Keep thy heart w'lth dilh*-
gence; for out of it are the issu s ot
“life.” And yet there are ihcso who
think they are wiser than Buddha
or Solomon. ,
When Judge Rodden be rry spoke

“Wo (the people) arc for Hoke

again.—Dawson News. Gliitl the

A bill to increase *he salaries of
the supreme court justices from §4,-

-r.troduced in the senate. At the

to fix t ig salaries of the appellate
court judges at §5,ooo a year. And

WE CANNOT SAY TOO MUCH FOR PE-RU-NA
These Women Say, in Substance, That Before
They Took Pe-ru-na They Were Miserable.
They Were Weak and Wretched.
After Taking Pe-ru-na They Were Restored to
Health and Usefulness.
This Is the Whole Story In a Nutshell.
If Pe-ru-na Can Do Such Wonders For These
Women It Can Do the Same For You.
The housewife is the one
who is best able to judge of
the relative merits of family
medicines. It is she that
knows the many uses of Pe- >
runa in the fanvly. It is
upon her testimonial that
chiefly depends the popu-
fhich Peruna
Stronger Than for Years.
Mrs. Caroline Sundheimer, Claiks.La.,
writes:
“I am feeling quite well now. I can
work again and am stronger than I have
been for years, and I do believe that
Peruna saved my life.
‘•f air **ry thankful to yon fer yonr
ad«ice I Will adwae all I can to take
your medicine.”
Pe-ru-na Cave Health.
Mrs. A. E. Stouffer, Capioma,
Kansas, writes:
“Peruna has given me health
and strength; it is the best medi
cine that was ever made for
women. My friendB say they
never saw such a change in a
woman. I talk to every one
about Pernna. I cannot say too
ranch for it.”
A Remedy For Women.
It is safe to say that we have
thousands of letters written to
Dr. Hartman from women who
repeat the same sentiment to be
found in Mrs. Stouffer’s testi
monial : “My friends say they
never saw sack a change in a
woman.” Over and over again this
sentence is penned by grateful women
who are more than willing that we
shonld use their words to assist other
suffering women in finding a core.
Pernna is a great medicine for women.
It cleanses the inside of the body in
ranch the same way that water cleanses
the outside of the body.
Mrs. E. T. Gaddis, Marion,
N. C., writes:
“Before I commenced to
take Peruna I could not do
any hard work without suf
fering great pain. I took
Peruna and Manalin, and can
say with pleasure they have
done more for me than any
other medicine I have ever
taken. Now I am as well as
ever, I do all my own work
and it never hnrts me at all. I
think Pernna is a great medi
cine for womankind.”
From Grateful Women.
“I was troubled with suppressed
and painful menstruation. I took
Pernna according to your directions,
and now I am well.”—Mrs. James Eigh-
mey, Grape, Mich.
“We have been using Pernna for some
time. To speak from a standpoint of ex
perience I can candidly say that Pernna
is the remedy for female weakness.
“From a personal test and from the
testimony of many others I shall not
hesitate to recommend it, especially to
all suffering women.” — Mrs. M? F. *
Jones, Burning Springs, Ky.
“I suffered from

PELVIC DISEASES.
catarrh for many
years, but since
taking Pernna I
feel strong and well. As I used Peruna
and Manalin while I was passing
through the change of life, I am posi
tively convinced yonr beneficial reme
dies have relieved me of all my ills.”—
Mrs. MatKilde Richter, Doniphan, Neb.
“I suffered with pelvic catarrh until I
wrote to Dr. Hartman, and after taking
treatment as he advised, I can say I am
enred of this most trying affliction, for
which I am truly thankful. I never felt
better in my life than 1 do at present.”
—Mrs. Etta Booker, Dundurn, Bask,
N. W. T., Can.
