LIVES DEARER THAN OUR VERY OWN
How many Urea dearer to u* than our very own have been placed In needl
jeopardy by failure to provide against and forestall the great suffering which <
frequently accompanies and follows the bearing of children f That we would
anything within our power to obviate the possibility of such an happeninfj
too patent to admit of question; therefore — mark well this fact — a liniment
MOTHER'S FRIEND
by name, has been devised, whose function it is to prepare in advance the
muscles and tissues intimately associated with parturition.
This liniment is for external application. By its use the parts are relaxed
and enabled to withstand not only the actual strain brought to bear on them
during accouchement, but also to rally from this ordeal and speedily regain their
normal proportions and tonicity. It is not irritating to the most sensitive sur
faces, and U appliablc to all cases. It's not enough to call it Mother’s Friend —
irt the friend of the whole family. Si.oo, all drugpsta. Book 44 Motherhood" !*""

All xortrt of railroad rumor# are afloat
in wiregre** Georgia. Froaperity pre
cedes and follow s a new railroad line,
and the talk is a good indication* of the
splendid condition of this section of the
state. The extension of the A. & B. to
Binning) am has re-’or tlv Wen trans
ferred from the realm of conjecture to
assurance.
Among the developments of the last
few days are the following rumors:
The Georgia Northern running from
Albany to Pldeock. will consolidate
with the South Georgia road, ruumug
from Quitman to Ferry, Fla. The G.
N.will build from Barwick in this coun
ty, to Quitman. Fart of the line exists
as a tram road of the Oglesby & Bndges
Lumber Co. The road will be extended
from Ferry to the Gulf. There will be
a later consolidation of small road
from Adol to Helena, then on to Angus
ta, and a lliml consolidation'into one
system.
A road will he built from Pollmra to
Bainbridgo. From Pelham north con
nection will be made with Hawkins-
ville The Albany Northern now run
ning from Gordele to Albany'will be
built to Newton, then down the west
side or the Flint river to Baiiihndge.
All the above belong to the "important

WORK OF WEATHER STATION
.EXPLAINED BY CHIEF
What thd Thomasville Bureau will do
When Estab ished
The Times-E.meki'KIsk ban received
from Congressman James M. Giiggs, a
copy of a letter from W illis L Moore
chief of the U S. Weather Bureau. It
explains fully the work of the Thomas
ville statiou which is to tie established
in July, and is reproduced here with
Hon. James M. Griggs, M. C.,
Washington, D. C.
My dear Mr Griggs:
la order that your jieoplu may ful
ly undo!stand what service they may
receive from the weather bureau, I will
say that *e will probubly rent a cottage
for an observatory, if ouo affording sui
table instrumental exposure can be ob
tained; if not we will secure quarters in
the upper part of some one of the busi
ness buildings of the city. The obser
vations from thomasvillo will be tele
graphed daily to Washington and nsed
in the making of forecasts f«>r the south
eastern district- Washington will tele
graph daily forecast* to Thomasville,
and cards, with the forecasts stamped
thereon will be distributed to such sur
rounding places as can be reached by
moil before evening. Weather, cold
wave, and 1 rest warning (lags will be
displayed from the top of the building.
A telephone w ill be installed Mild so <
nected that we cau send the morning
forecasts and cold wave and frost warn
ings through the adjacent districts, pro
vided we cau secure the co-operation of
the rural com|iame* wlricli 1 presume
we can. If there is a turai free delive
ry sorfico leaving Thomasville, aud if
you can arrange to have the carriers
start after 10 a. m. we will have oar
local official print tho forecasts and
warniugs on stipe or papier and deliver
them to the carriers for distribution
aloug their routes. We will also tele
graph the forecasts to tho headquarters
of rural routes, and furnish the poet-
masters at tin ee places with small print
ing outfits, mo that they way print the
forecasts, prut ided the carriers can be
hold until after 10 a. ni. By this means
the forecasts based upon observations
taken at 8 a. m. can be distributed di
rect to tue farmers.
Another interesting feature of the
work of the observor at Thomasville
will be the delivering of informal talks to
the liigu school pupils who wish to come
to the staliuu aim tram of the manlier in
which the automatic instrument register
the different conditions of the atmos
phere. Tim luetti official may imadbly, in
addition to Ills bill ia duties,deliver some
lectures on the phenomena of the air
and climate before yonr local societies
or in your public schools.
# Vory truly yours,
Willis L. Moore.

DEAFNESS CANNOT HE CURED

The Gospel’s gracious call?
“Go, ye," the Uhrist is pleading,

Although Uhrist commanded His dir-
ciples to go into all tho world and pieach
His gospel to ovory oreeture, eighteen-
and two third* ceutarlee have paused,
and still eighteen hundred millions of

WHAT HAVE THE WOMEN OF

The Hist year after organization 1880,
twenty*Hve yean ago 1170.80 was paid
Into tho treasury, lout year the Son'h
Georgia Conference raised for ail pur

over ten previous rear. Since organi
zation *130,105.07 lias boon raised for
all purpoars aud applied by the Wo
man’s Board on purcliaae of property,
oreotlon of Luilding, support of mission-
nries, Bible women and •oholerehipe and
tlie varions oilier branqlies of onr work.
A small part of tills has been need for
alio expenses of tlio looal conference
work.
WHAT HAVE THK WOMEN OF
THOMASVILLE DONE?
Our District Secretary, in her last re
port to ilie Annual Conference of the
Woman’s Foreign Missionary Society,
nays: "Our district ha. accomplished
more the past year than any in its his
tory, aud we praise Uod today lor His
Holy Spirit at work ou tils hearts and
conscience, ut our women, arousing
them to greater acuiity aud eiutUiug
them to see their glorious opportunities
as uever before. We raised lost year
fnra;l pnr|iosos *1523.33."
Of this amount *423.15 was contribu
ted in Tliomasville; viz. *343.05 by the
Woman's Foreigu Missionary Society;

THK DOOR STANDS OPEN—WHO
SHALL KNTKK?
A marvel of tlie Eastern world, whose
Importance cannot be overrated, is tlie
awaking now in program in Oliina. Tba
empire it shaking itself free from the
sleep of ogee; dissatisfaction with pres
ent condition grows; desire for Western
learning is becoming a craze among the
educated. Meautime^Japanoae teaoliers
are being called to take charge of Ohl
note schools from Peking to the Tibetan
frontier. ’Hie door Is also wide open
for an increase of Christian educational
enterprises. It will not, however, sl-
wnys 'remain open. If tho Christian
Church does not seise the present great
opportunity in Oliina. and Buddha, in
stead of Uhrist, beoomes the ideal
which dominates tlie new .thought of
Oliina, we shall hare to make note sad-
ly.ouce more of the fact that opportuni
ty dors not wait for laggards.
A remarkable cliange seems to have
oome over the Chinese people in regard
to tlie work of tlie missionaries. Bveiy.
whore schools are crowded, ohspels are
Hlled to overflowing, and there is an
eagerness to reoetve the religion of the
foreigners inch os has never been know n
before. In one piece two opium shops,
hitherto very prosperous, lisve been ob
liged to dose their doors for look of
onstomers, tlie Christian Jyoung men of
the town having conducted such a sac-
oemful crusade against the opinmhabit.
Another fact indicates a groat change.
Formerly the selling of portions of tba
Scriptures was a slow and difflodt talk.
Now a man can roil 1,000copies a month

SELF-KNOWLEDGE OF
GREATIMPOKVaNC^
The Knowledge of How the Homan
Body is Constincted and Kapt in
Repair, or Destroyed.
SHOULD BE OF VAST IMPORTANCE
TO EACH INDIVIDUAL.
The human system when la perfect
health is like a brightly burning candle,
bnt if it once got oat of order, ttomaoh
deranged, liver stagnant, nerves un-
strong, appetite gone, blood beoomlng
poor and thin, eirenlation diminished,
heart weak, and tho cu.ile bums at
both ends. It thon becomes necessary
to tone ap and dean oat the stomaoh
anil bowels, stimulate tl,e liver e ear tha
dogged kidneys, and cleauie and partly
the blood. Tlie bent mediotne to do tt
is Dillingham's Plant Juice.
When tlie stomach is weak, when the
kidneys are enfeebled, win u tlie assim
ilative powers need strengthening, then
the process of nntritlou is hindered and
an acid condition of Ihe system ia pro-
dnond. Tlie blood oontsimug an exoes-
siro amount of area and orio sold, soon
tlie result is rheumatism—a dread di
sease witli many foru,s, and I ho greatest
variety of pallia and aches.
It was the antiqanted—bnt now hap
pily exploded—method In the good old
times to treat salt rhenm, scrofula, can
cer and other tronbieeome disorders
arising from impure blood, with power
ful alternatives tnoh aa mercury, enenio
and oilier mineral agents. It wee ex
pected by tliis treatment that the potion
coaid be killed while the blood wee left
to oooree through its channels, bolding
in lie eirenlation Ihe ipeoiflo germ of
the disease; bat in this way every part
of the body became more or lees diseased
There is only one soientlllo method for
tlie enre of blood-taint—that is, porid-
cation! Every particle of the blood
must be removed through the excretory
channels, the longs, kidneys, bowels,
liver end skin. "First pore, thon pesos-
able.”
Tlie great restorative, reconstructive
and vttalizer of the blood, Dillingham's
Plant Juice, not duly radically and ex
haustively removes the taint, bnt also
removes all mercury, calomel end other
material*, aud flile the vetus end arter
ies with the ruby flowing cumnl of vi
tality.
The blood la life." Good health
means pare blood. Tbe old and reliable
romody, Dillingham’s Plant Jnioe, Is
universally regarded as the .greatest
m putiller ever discovered. The
foot la now established beyond question
