It was a mild summer evening, still,
yet full of strange, mysterious sounds;
the so.'t l»r«« ze floated into the doors,
hearing v ilh it’ the heavy fragrance «.f
the flowers. In the gathering dusk the

Holst’s way of taking these stories; his
scornful comments tore ugly rents in
the dreamy veil In which she wrapped
herself.
He was a medical student, and had
witnessed similar things in the hospital.
It was owing to sickness acting upon
different individuals. Either tin* patient

cries and the clank of chains, of the
whole affair was pure hallucination. A
person in a healthy, normal condition
never saw ghosts.
The whole party opposed his view.
There Was <urelv some truth at the bot
tom of all th*s** tales. There were a
thousand things which could not be ex

noise, like crickets and a mysterious
ticking, as though the famous death-
watch was under the carpet. He lay
listening a moment, heard the night
wind sigh through the trees and the
great clock of the manor struck eleven;
then he fell s.sleep.
At the end of an hour he suddenly ^
, started up in bed, having heard a sound
like the openingof a door. A strange
shuddering sensation ran through his
i ubs, as lie stared fixedly into the room

Noaiinwer, but the shape remained
standing in the middle of the floor.
“Who’s there? Answer, or as sure as.
I live I’ll lire,” he called again, cock
ing his pistol.
He was once more the quiet, cold
blooded physician; he had surely heard
theereakingofadoor; it must be a man,
a rascal, a murderer perhaps—but no
spectre.
Yet, spite of the pistol’s warning snap
the figure did not move.
“Who goes there?” ho called again.
Still no sound disturbed the silence
of the room.
The physician stretched out his arm
and tired.
A flash of light illumined the dusky
chamber, and the report shook the old
tapestry. Scarcely had the sound died
away, when a hurst, of discordant, jeer
ing, fiendish laughter greeted him, and
something hard struck his forehead. It
was the bullet.
Seized with terrible dread, he fired the
other pistol nt the motionless w hite
form—again the frightful laughter ech

fell heavily back on his own breast.

the bed.
The form glided noiselessly out of the

“The blue chamber?” cried tlie whole
party in tones of astonishment.
“Yes. we have here, as in so many old
manor houses, a room that is said to he.
haunted. Many hundred years ago a
man was murdered there, and since then
the ghosts have taken possession of it.
Tlie servants talk of strange sounds ami
sights: none of them like to pacs it after
dark.”
••J was sitting thinking that I should
be delighted to occupy a real haunted
chamber,” said Holst ipiietly. “It is a
sin to have it remain unused forever.
Perhaps 1 can help dispel this foolish
superstition, for I am corvinced I shall
sleep imdi.storlicd.”
At first the mistress of the house
would not listen to such a plan, but,
when the whole party urged and Anna
clasped her arms beseechingly around
her neck, she at last yielded.
Anna thought the scheme wonderfully
interesting.

me the favor to get my pistols; they
are in my traveling satrhel; but don’t
meddle with the triggers—they are load

Victor w ent away with a light, and
soon utter brought the pistols to his
brother. The latter primed them fresh
ly, put 011 new caps, and laid them on
the table.
“Now, good-night, Indies and gentle
men : I wish you all as coinfortable rest
as I expect to have myself.”
“Good-night, wicked free-thinker,”
said Anna, half admiringly, “I hope
you will have different opinions in the

Holst remained alone in the ldne cham
ber. The sound of footsteps and voices
died aw ay: lie listened at the door, but
all was still.
Going to the w indow, he stood there a
few- minutes, looking at the grove. The
soft night breeze stirred the leaves and
branches. Only the nearest trees could

was dense, impenetrable darkness, for
there was neither moon nor stars in the

“It’s really very rare to ire free from

of intruding and playing the spy on sen
sible folks, spite of draw a curtains. For
tire rest this is an uncommonly comfort

whole partv will have so good a bed to

“So a inan was murdered here and for
the sake of this legend the room has
now stood empty for hundreds ol years.
If one could see a few blood-stains or
similar horrors—bvt there’s no trace of
envthingof the sort. What matchless
power superstition has, even In our en
lightened days! I shall consider ita
good deed to drive it from this comfort-
ble stronghold.”
Lighting a cigar, he paced to and fro,
smoking, then walked around the bed
and closed his eyes with a shudder.
“Row timidly the yotrng girl Anna Is

Suddon Death of a Well Known Citlion.
Op. Sunday morning our commu
nity was pained to learn that Dr. H.
C. Billups, who is wide and favora
bly known to Athens and the sur
rounding country, was taken sud
denly and dangerously ill at his
room at tlie Clinard house. Dr. Bil
lups had been in feeble health lor
some time past, but until Saturday
last was able to be on the street, and
despite his infirmities he presented
that cheerful appearance which has
made him always popular. On Sat
urday he remained in his room, but
no apprelmnsion was felt by either
himself or friends, as he* merely
complained ol not feeling as well as
usual. Early on Sunday morning,
moans were heard in the direction
ol his Toom, which prompted Capt-
Clinard to enquire into the cause,
and upon entering the room Dr.
Billups was found in an unconscious
condition upon the floor. The sup
position is that he intended getting
up for the purpose of leaving the
room, and was stricken with con
gestion of the brain. He remained
untonscious during the entire day,
and was visited by a large number
of friends, which attested his great
popularity in Athens. All that
medical skill and the kind adminis
trations of friends could do was ex
tended to soothe the condition of
the dying man, but all without ef
fect, as he remained in the uncon
scious condition in which he was
found until death relieved him of
his sufferings early on Monday
morniDg. It is hardly necessary lor
us to enter upon any encomium of
this well known resident of Athens.
His generous impulses, genial man
ners and gentlemanly bearing had
won for him the esteem and last
ing friendship of all with whom he
came in contact, and many there
are in different parts ol the state
who will remember with a tear of
regret at his departure—the whole-
souled, jovial “Hal” Billups of the
days gone by, and throw tha mantle
of charity over his faults, and let
their recollection dwell upon his
numerous virtues. Kind and true
as steel to a friend, with a heart as
magnanimous as ever beat in a hu
man breast, he has left behind him
a record of personal integrity,
which is worthy of emulation.
Frank and honest in all his convic
tions; noble ancj, generous in hisim-
pules, he has ever borne himself in
that open-hearted Jmanner charac
teristic of the old style Southern
gentleman. The sympathies ot
our community go out to the grief-
stricken wife and daughter and the
mourning friends and relatives of
him who in life was admired foi his
- many virtues and whose mortal re
mains will soon be laid away'beside
the loved ones gone before. As a
friend and companion, he will be
long remembered lor the loveable
traits of character that made his
name as familiar in Athens as
household words.

I have been familiar for a number of
years with tlie general character of Prof-
lf or-iord’s phosphatic perparations. He
cent examinations made hv me of tire
“Acid Phosphate" and “Bread Prepara
tion," show ihein to he exactly what is
claimed for them in tlie circulars acom-
pauying the packages. The “Acid
Phosphate” is a concentrated solution in
water of “Acid Phosphate of Lime. The
“Bread Preparation’’ is a mixture of Acid
Phosphate of Lime, carbonate of soda
and Hour. When mixed with water, car
bonic acid gas is liberated and a double
phosphate of lime and soda is formed
and remains in the bread when baked.
In ordinary cream of tartar baking pow
ders the substance left in the bread alter
“raising” is roelielle salts—a double
tartrate of soda and potash. The phos
phates are useful m’neral substances in
animal nutrition and growth, the tartra
tes are not.
In my opinion, the Phosphatie Pow
der is, therefore, preferable to the others,
so far as healthful ness is concerned.

Mr. John Pearson’s Statement:
In the Spring of 1SS2 I was attacked with a
very bad cough, which continued to grow
worse until Fall, when I got no weak that I
could not get about. 1 tried a great many
kinds of medicine, but continued to gnu
worse. I was notified tliat I had eonsumpthn
sent to Ward’s Store and got a bottle, and I
commenced taking it right away. After taking
two or three doses. 1 begun to improve, and by
the time I had used up one bottle 1 was able to
get on mv feet again. I am now in excellent
health. I am confident that the Lung Restorer
saved my life, and my neighbors are of the
some opinion. It 1* the best Lung Remedy
ever made. In my opinion. l)r. II. promised me
that he would write to the manufacturers and
tell them of the wonderful cure it made in my
case.
Statement of Mr.Benj.F.Hearndon:
Early in November. 1881, while sewing on the
machine, my wife was taken with a severe pain
hi her side, which was soon followed by hemor
rhages from her lungs and a severe rough.
Fever commenced, she could neither eat nor
sleep, ami in a few weeks she was rednen! to a
living skeleton. The attending nhyslcian told
me that lie thought one of her lungs was en
tirely gone. She could not retain the most
delicate nourishment on her stomach. I then
agreed with Dr. Sullivan, my family physician,
to call Dr. Holloway in consultation. They
made a final examination of the i>atient, and
prononneed the case hopeless. Dr. llolloway
then suggested the Brewer’s Lung Restorer as
a last resort. I sent for a bottle, and cave her
a dose. I found that she could retain it on her
stomach, and after about the third dose I *>««*«

I continued tlio medicine regularly, and by the
time she had taken two botf Jes she was able to
