TOWNSEND, Editor and Proprietor C LOT HING A Pair of Gloves. Two little gloves-an outgrown pair Of tiniest make ami measure ; For years they have lain in hiding there. With many another treasure. But hilly a few can understand How memory with them lingers, And see the shape of the baby hand And feel the clinging lingers. What if the time that is gone is dumb? By these is the silence broken; Even the hole in the little thumb Isa story softly spoken. Calling and waking memories— Not dead, but simply sleeping, For life is before their owner’s eyes; Her hand in another’s keeping. Little hands cling to her own to-day And footsteps run to meet her; The simplest words that the little lips sny— Was there ever a music sweeter? And these are her gloves, long since outgrown, Yet prized beyond all measure; Ah, most of us such little trifles own, That dee]) in our hearts we treasure. To Prevent Chafing of the Skin.

I suffered with falling and con gestion of the womb, with severe pains through the groins. 1 suf fered terribly at the time of men struation, had blinding headaches and rushing of blood to the brain. What to try 1 knew not, for it seemed that I had tried all and failed, but 1 bad never tried Wine of Cardui, that blessed remedy for sick women. I found it pleasant to take and soon knew that I had the right medicine. New blood seemed to course through my veins and after using eleven bottles I was a well woman. *Va. Mbn. Worley, Clerk. Geo.

An Act of Congress of 1898, amended in April last, provides for extra compensation for those officers and men who enlisted in the United States Army during llie Spanish war, and those who ap plied for enlistment and were re jected. 1st. Those officers and men who enlisted in the Georgia regi ments and artillery companies will receive pay for the period between the date of assemby at the ren dezvous and the date they were mustered in the United States ser vice. 2nd. Those who were rejected will receive pay from date of as sembly to date of rejection and actual transportation. This extra compensation will be allowed, although the officers and men have already been paid for the same time. No information except the re cords is needed as to those muster ed in. There are no records of those who were rejected, and it will be necessary for everyone who was rejected to write and give me the following information: 1st. Name he gave when tempted to join. 2nd. Company or regiment attempted to join. 3rd. Place where he was ex amined, and surgeon who examin ed him, time between the date ho agreed to enlist and the date he was rejected. How many days? 4th. The actual cost of trans portation from his home to place he was examined and back to his home. 5th. His present post'office ad dress. It is exceedingly important that I have this information ot the earliest possible time. By the authority of the Govern or of Georgia, I will collect and disburse the amount due under this Act. Those interested will address all communications to the under signed. G. G. JANES, Cedartown, Ga. One of the chief causes of rough lips and chapped hands is in sufficient drying. 11 the hands and lips are left damp, and then exposed to cold air, ^the skin on them becomes frayed and rough. To wash and then go out into the open air is also injurious. The skin should lie lightly wiped over with a little soft rag in cold cream. Tliis will protect from the cold without making the skin look greasy. For the hands, a little finely powdered starch rubbed in after washing will insure complete dry- j ing and so protect the skin. Another useful preventive of j rough hands is made as follows: Equal parts of pure glycerine and lemon juice thoroughly mixed, and well rubbed into the back of j the hands each time after wash ing. This is chiefly useful as a | preventive of ‘‘chapping,” aB if the skin is actually broken the asidity of the lemon juice will : produce smarting. In this case nothing is better than pure mut ton fat, well rubbed in at night 1 before putting on sleeping-gloves. If these precautions are taken, and if the children are never ah J lowed to go out in the open air . without gloves, there is little risk ; of their hands becoming sore and j rough. j Watches Slower at Night. mm— REGISTERED The Most Complete Line of A \ ^ f?'

That is because the only way to regulate it properly is to compare it with a chronometer at the same hour ! every day. Otherwise the vuria- | tions in the speed of the watch will I baffle his efforts. | “Tho man to whom 1 was ap- I prenticed told mo this, and I i thought the idea absurd. We ! were working late one night, and he called my attention to a lot of watches we had regulated and i ready lo deliver. It was near j midnight, and every watch was slow. The better timepieces had lagged behind some seconds. The cheaper watches wore a minute or more out of the way. Next morn ing every one of the lot was ex actly right. “The fact is you can regulate a watch to make exactly twenty-four hours a day, but you can’t per suade it to mako just sixty minutes in each of the twenty-four hours.

Again Truth Beats Fiction. New Uses For Potatoes. Neatness in Girls. The family medicine in thousands of homes for 52 years—Dr. Tliacher s Liver and Blood Syrup. Neatness is a good thing for a girl, and if she does not learn it when she is young she never will. It takes a great deal of neatness to make a girl look attractive. A girl that is not neatly dressed is called a sloven, and no one likes to look at her. Her face may be pretty and her eyes bright, but if there is a spot of dirt on her cheek and her finger ends are black with ink and her shoestring are dang ling and her apron is dirty and her collar is not buttoned and her skirts torn she will not be liked. Learn to be neat, and when you have learned the lesson it will al most take care of itself.

Anybody who will j can lie, but here is a true story of I James H. Prentiss of Ann Arbor, who, while fishing at Zukey lake, lost the $200 setting on bis diam ond ring. Hoping that tho glitter might have attracted a bite from a pickerel, which grabs greedily for a flashing spoonhook, every fish caught was carfully dissected, and Prentiss had just about given up hope of beholding bis $200 sparkle again when, as the last fish had been ripped up the front, be hung- I ed if the gem wasn’t found wed.w- ■ ed between two boards in the bot tom of the boat! Detroit Tribune. Two Extremes With Like Results. Mr. Chas. Williams, recently promoted to the deputy collector ship in the internal revenue service iu the Southern district, has been assigned to the position hen: form erly occupied by Mr. H. L. Rich ardson.— Eagle. The position of a rich and idle woman, bedded in a luxurious home, with all the arts and crafts ministering to her personal gratifi cation and the extension of her vanity, from body to dress, from dress to homo and furniture, and with all the endless fripperies of display, is one of painful abnorm ality. A woman working all the time in her home is primitive, but genuine. She represents an early period of development, it is true, but one of use and beauty and righteousness in its time. A wo man who works neither in the house nor out of it, who greedily accepts a’l that human labor and human wisdom and human skill can do for her, and who does noth ing in return for any human crea ture—this pitiable being can only be regarded as a morbid by-pro duct of the home. She does not make the home, 9he does not pay for it, she does not serve it, and she has no vital use or place either in the home or in the world; yet she is, in her way, an inevitable result of too much home—just as ft toiling, narrow-minded drudge is another.—Ex.
