A GOOD SHAVE
And the Place to Get It is At
Dick Harris’ Shop.
If there it anything in the world
about wh : ch a man is particular it
is his shaving and he wants to seek
the best barber in the city when it
comes to that part of his toilet.
He demands in the first place a
barber who is safe, who will not cut
him through careless handling of th?
razor. Then he wants to be shaved
by a barber who handles the razor in
such a way ss not to cause him pain.
He also wants to go to a thop where
everything is clean, aid where he
will receive polite attention.
A man in Athens need not hunt
long for such a place, for all he has
to do is to go down on Broad street
next to the University bank, where
he will find Dick Harris’ shop. It
fills every one of the above require-*
ments, and he will be delighted with
the treatment accorded him there.

Saturdey merning at the home of
Hr. and Mrs. Thomas H. Nickerson on
Hill street, occurred the desth of little
Reuben Nickerson, their reven year old
son.
The death of the little fellow was the
resale of a rather brief illness, he hav
ing bee 1 sick only aboat a week. The
blow fell with terrible weight upon the
loving parents, who have in this dark
hoar of sorrow the sympathies ef hosts
of friends.
The little boy was a child of unninal
intelligence and hid reached an age
where all the fondest affections of the
parents clustered around him,
The light and joy of the house has
died oat in the death of the little boy,
but to the broken spirits and bleeding
hearts oomes the consolation that over
yonder m tie celestial city the little
boy is at res'..

COST HIM A DOLLAR.
A young man who seemed to be boil
ing over to do something smart was a
passenger on a Michigan avenns car
the other day, says the Detroit Free
Press. After racking his massive brain
for a while he took out a silver dollar
and laid it on the seat and took a Beat
opposite. The oar soon stopped at a
crossing to let on an old woman with
a market basket. She sew the empty
seat and the dollar, and it didn’t take
- her over thirty seconds to drop herself

they have few equals in the State.
Nothing gives a man more satisfac

exactly right. If the barber makes

other resort than to take it out in

“Excuse me. ma’am,” said the joker,
M bat I’ve lost a dollar. I think I left it
on that seat.”
“I don’t I” sheblnntly replied.
“But I’m sure of It. Did yon pick up
a dollar ?”
“None o’ yoor business, sir!”
“But ill of us saw you piok it up,

A Miracle in Missouri.
CRIPPLED AND BENT FOR TEN YEARS
WITH RHEUMATISM.
The Case Happened In Panama, Ho.,
and Is the Wonder ot the State.
{From Me Kansas City Times.)
For years one of the best known men in
Bates and Vernon counties has been Mark
M. Woodson, now postmaster at Panama,
and brother of ex-State Inspector of Mines,
G. C. Woodson, of this city. The people of
Rich Will, where he formerly resided, and of
his present home, remember well the bent
form, misshapen almost from the semblance
of man, which has painfully bowed its head
half to earth and labored snail-like across
the walks season after season, and when one
day last month it straightened to its fall
height, threw away the heavy butt of cane
which for years had been its only support
from total helplessness, and walked erect,
firmly, unhesitatingly about the two cities,
people looked and wondered. The story of
the remarkable case has become the marvel
of the two counties. Exactly as Mr. Wood-
son told it to a Times reporter, it is here
published:
“ in >84 the rheumatism started in my
right knee, and after a lingering illness it
settled generally in my joints. I was
finally able to arise, bat for tne past 5 years
could only walk with the aid of crutches,
and my body was bent half toward the
ground. I went to the best dispensary in
Kamuui (Sty, where I was treated for six
weeks, and without the slightest good. I
then tried a strong galvanic battery, with
the I*™* result. I then went to the City
Hospitsl at St. Loais, where the best physi
cians treated me—(including Drs. Kale and
Mndd)—but without result,and I came home,
weak, doubled with pain and despondent.
“About this time my attention was called
to the aooonnt of a remarkable core by Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People of
locomotor ataxia, rheumatism and paral
ysis. I ordered some of the pills as an ex
periment. When I began to take them, the
rheumatism had developed into a phase of
paralysis; my leg from the thigh down was
onis all the time and oould not be kept
warm. In a short time I wasahle to attend
to myoffi.ee duties, and I could enjoy a sound
and restful night’s sleep, something I had
not known for ten years. To-day am prao-
tically, and I firmly believe, permanently
eared of my terrible and agonizing ailment.
No magician of the Far East ever wrought
the miracle with his wand that Dr. Wil
liams’ Pink Pills did for me.”
To verify the story beyond all question of
doubt Mr. Woodson made affidavit to the
above.
Subscribed and sworn to before me this
8d day of March, 1894.
John D. Moore. Notary Public.
Dr Williams’ Pink Pills contain all the
dements necessary to give new life and
richness to the blood and restore shattered
nerves. They are for sale by all druggists,

Ti SOUTHERN MUHL INSURANCE COMPANY
This “Old Reliable” Company occupies a position altogether unique
in the business world. Engaged in a business in which few are able to
make mure than a meagre profit* except in years of unusual conditional
the Southern Mutnal has steadily made large dividends for many years.
And yet it cannot be classed as a money making institution, as it is
not operated for the purpose of making money. It is rather a partner,
ship, organized and conducted solely for the purpose of distributing the
fire loss amongst its members. In this view it is rather to be called a
benevolent institution as a membership in it means protection from loss
by fire, at a less cost than in any other institntion in the world.
In fact insurance in the Southern Mutnal Insurance Company, is for.
nished at less than cost in the cheapest managed company in this or any
other country. This is true because not only are the entire profits of the
years business divided annually amongst the policyholders, but in ad
dition to that the interest on its assets, amounting new, at market value
to about one million dollars.
Th‘s condition of things is one mnch to be commended in these days
when business methois are so apt to be of a kind best characterized by
the term “taking short cats,” This company has for many years been
managed by men of the very highest character and business capaoity and
in all its methods is characterized by the most liberal and fair dealings
and its open and straightforward methods have for a long time been pro
verbial.
The Company’s dividend this year was 72 per cent and amounted to the
handsome sum of $190,000.
The special line of risks which the Company seeks, indeed the only
class it seeks, is that of dwellings occupied by the owners, in short the
homes of the people, and to this reporter it is passing strange that every
man who owns a house and who understands the condition, the methods
and the high character cf its management, does not seek to get into it.
