His Mother s Bible.
An anecdote tie criptive of a fine
phase of the late Colonel William A.
Hemphill’s character was, strangely
enough, related from the pulpit last
Sunday night by Rev. T. B Cleve
land. who at the time knew nothing
of Colonel Hemphill’s illness. In
less than two hours afterwards Col
onel Hemphill was dead.
Mr. Cleveland had chosen the du y
of a child to his parent as the general
theme of his sermon, and it was to
illustrate a rare display of devotion
that he told of the Hemphill incident.
‘ The most touching and dramatic
evidence of a son’s devotion to his
mother that I ever saw happened at
the battle of Gettysburg,” said Mr. [
Cleveland. ‘‘When the battle was
raging at its hottest, and men on the
confederate side were falling by hun
dreds, I saw a stalwart young south
ern soldier reeling from the lines to
the rear, where the hospital was loca
ted. He had been badly shot in the
face, and the blood was gushing
forth in streams. As he picked his
way over the rough ground it was
plain to see that his condition was
serious, and that the loss of blood
had greatly weakened him. But
what attracted my attention most
was the position of his‘hands, which
were held uprightjover his head and
contained a small object, which I
could not make out for the smoke
and dust of the battle. I was sb in
terested that I followed the young
man and asked him why he held his
hands as he did, and what it was he
carried. A wan smile lit up his face,
and he said:
“ ‘lt’s a Bible that my mother
gave me. It was in my pocket when
I was hurt, and I took it out to keep
it from getting bloody! ’
“That man,” continued Mr. Cleve
land, “was William A. Hemphill, of
Atlanta, then a gunner in the con
federata army.”
As stated, Colonel Hemphill died
shortly after the anecdote had been
related.

Frightful Gin Accident.
News t etches us of a frightful
gin accident that happened at
Carlton Wednesday. The ma
chinery of the Carlion Gin Co.
was being tried on its first bale
of cotton when one of the gins
became clogged. Mr. Goss
Powers attempted to remove the
obstruction when his right hand
was caught by the saws and his
entire arm was jerked into the
gin and horribly mangled, so
much so that it had to be am
putated near the shoulder. He
stood the hurt and operation
well and was reported this morn
ing as doing well. Mr. Powers
a few weeks since superintended
the erection of the new build
ings for the Mill & Gin Co. in
this place.—Oglethorpe Echo.
Gray Hair
“ I have used Ayer’s Hair Vigor
for over thirty years. It has kept
my scalp free from dandruff and
has prevented my hair from turn
ing gray.”—Mrs. F. A. Soule,
Billings, Mont.
There is this peculiar
thing about Ayer’s Hair
Vigor —it is a hair food,
not a dye. Your hair does
not suddenly turn black,
look dead and lifeless.
But gradually the old color
comes back,—all the rich,
dark color it used to have.
The bairstops falling,too.

MALARIA
Invisible
Means bad air, and whether it Enemy to Health
comes from the low lands and
marshes of the country, or the filthy sewers and drain pipes of the cities
and towns, its effect Upon the human system is the same.
These atmospheric poisons are breathed into the lungs and taken up
by the blood, and the foundation of some long, debilitating illness is laid.
Chills and fever, chronic dyspepsia, torpid and enlarged liver, kidney
troubles, jaundice and biliousness are frequently due to that invisible foe,
Malaria. Noxious gases and unhealthy matter collect in the system because
the liver and kidneys fail to act, and are poured into the blood current until
it becomes so polluted and sluggish that the poisons literally break through
the skin, and carbuncles, boils, abscesses, ulcers and various eruptions of an
indolent character appear, depleting the system, and threatening life itself.
The germs and poisons that so oppress and weaken the body and destroy
the life-giving properties of the blood, rendering it thin and watery, must
be overcome and carried out of the system before the patient can hope to
get rid of Malaria and its effects.

Dr. Chas. H. Utter, a prominent
physician, of Panama, Columbia, in
a recent letter states: “Last March
. I had as a patient a young lady six
teen years of age, who had a very bad
attack of dysentery. Everything I
| prescribed for her proved ineffectual
and she was growing worse every
| hour. Her parents were sure she
would die. She had become so weak
that she could not turn over in bed.»
What to do at this critical moment]
was a study for me, but I thought of ’
I Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Di
arrhoea Remedy and as a last resort
i prescribed it. The most wonderful
result was effected. Within eight
hours she was feeling much better;
inside of three days she was upon her
feet and at the end of ope week was
entirely well.” For sale by Hern
