Telling the Truth.
It is said that an editor re
cently announced that for just
one issue he would tell the truth,
the whole truth, naked and un
varnished, says the Lyre. That
is, the truth was to be naked
and unvarnished. Here is one
item from that issue : ‘‘Married
—Miss Sylvia Smith to Mr.
James Carnahan, last Saturday,
at the parsonage. The bride is
a very ordinary girl about town
who doesn’t know any more than
a rabbit about cooking, and
never helped her poor old mo
ther three days in her life. She
is not a beauty, by a long shot,
and has a gait like a fat duck.
The groom is known as an up
to-date loafer and has been liv
ing off his mother all his life,
land don’t amount to anything,
nohow. They will have a tough
time of it, and we withhold
congratulations, for we don’t
believe any good can come from
such a marriage.”
ALL WEBE SAVED.
‘‘For years I suffered such untold
misery from bronchitis,” writes J.
H. Johnston, of Broughton, Ga.,
“that often I was unable to work. —
Then, when everything else failed, I
was wholly cured by Dr. King’s New
Discovery fcr Consumption. My wife
suffered intensely from asthma, till it
cured her, and all our experience
goes to show it is the best croup med
icine in the world.” A trial will
convince you it’s unrivaled for throat
and lung diseases. Guaranteed bot
tles 50c and sl. Trial bottles free at
E. B. Benson A Son’s and Herndons’
Drugstore.
In Barbourville, Ky., the
other day a divided jury reached
a verdict in a novel manner. A
handful of corn was poured on
a table. It was agreed that two
jurymen, one for acquittal and
one for conviction, should take
a grain of corn in turn until the
supply was exhausted. The
man who took the last grain was
to render the verdict. The man
for conviction got the last grain,
and a verdict of guilty was re
turned. When the attorney for
the defendant heard this he
asked for a new trial, and got it.
Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy has a world wide
reputation for its cures. It never
fails and is pleasant and safe to take.

Mr. Joe Burch has one oj the
most sagacious dogs ever seen
in Athens, says the Tribune.—
Every morning this dog carries
the cow to the pasture and in
the afternoon goes after her and
brings her home. It is an in
teresting sight to see this dog
coming along the street with
the rope in his mouth, and pull
ing just like a man when the
cow happens to hold back.

A LITTLE ONE CONS.
Just at the dawn of the lovely
Sabbath morning, July 6, 1902, the
reaper Death invaded the home of
Mr. and Mrs. G. A. Hailey and took
the spirit of their little Annie Rene
to the celestial city to live with God
and the angels. For nearly two years
she was a little sunbeam in the home
and her vacancy can and must be
filled by Christ and him alone.
The tender little bud was dwarfed
here by disease but is perfect in
heaven. Human effort was power
less to alleviate the pain and relief
came only when the Great Physician
claimed her as his own. When we
realize that our loving Heavenly Fa
ther has done this, can we, shall we,
wish her back again, when we know
He doth all things well ?
I fancy I can almost see her little
smiling face beckoning papa, mama,
and little brother on to her bright
heavenly home.
She has gained the victory and is
safe. What a great source of conso
lation is the thought that the separa
tion will not be long, and if we are
only faithful we shall meet her, with
other loved ones gone before, in their
home in glory. M. W.

OBITUARY.
It is with much sorrow that I an
nounce the death of Mrs. Frances
Richardson, who left this world of
sorrowing and suffering for the spirit
ual realm to rest forever in peace, on
July 28,1902. She was born in up
per Elbert, that portion now known
as Smiths district, Hart county, Ga..
in 1840, and at the time of her death
was 62 years old. She was married
to William Richardson February 22,
1885, with whom she lived a devoted
wife and faithful companion until
her death. Five children survive
her, one son and four daughters. She
moved from Hart to Floyd county,
Ga., in 1867, where she resided 25
years. She and her husband then
moved to DeKalb county, Ala., in
1894, where she resided until her
death. She was well known in the
county and was lovea by those who
were thus honored. She was always
ready to help the sick and afflicted,
and always took delight in deeds of
charity. She was stricken with con
sumption in 1900, since which time
she had borne with great patience
and fortitude many hours of suffer
ing and remained as cheerful as one
in such condition could possibly be.
But as her sufferings are now over
and she is at reast with dear ones
who have gone before, we should not
grieve, but should hope, with God’s
assurance, that after life’s toils are
over we will meet her “some sweet
day,” and with our Savior rest under
the shade of the trees.

ITEMS OF INTEREST.
j A traveler in Persia relates that
the nostrils of donkeys are frequently
slit up almost to their eyes. This is
to facilitate their breathing in hot
weather, the natives say.
A wooden chimney stack, 160 feet
high, is in operation at Mapimi, in
the province of Durango, Mexico.—
The interior is lined with corrugated
iron and there are platforms at inter
vals to throw water on the wood it it
catches on fire.
There is a point near the famous
Stony Cave in the Catskill Mountains,
where ice may be found on any day
in the year. This locality is locally
known as the Notch, and is walled in
on all sides by’ steep inonntains, some
of which are more than 3,000 feet
high.
The largest tree in the world is said
to have recently been discovered in
Africa in the region of the Upper
Nianza. Its hight is said to be half
again that of the tallest trees in Cali
fornia, and its thickness double that
of the largest giant redwoods. The
particulars are, however, suspiciously
vague.
An effort is being made in Sweden
to use electricity in agriculture. A
seed field is covered by a network of
wire and a strong electric current is
turned on during nights and chilly
days, but cut off during sunny and
warm weather. The system was in
vented by Prof. Lemstrom, of Hel
singfors, Finland.
Orsa, Sweden, has in course of a
generation sold $5,750,000 worth of
trees, and by means of judicious re
planting has provided for a similar
income every thirty or forty’ years;
In consequence of this commercial
wealth there are no taxes. Railways
and telephones are free, and so are
school houses, teaching and many
other things.
The largest coil of wire rope ever
made in Brooklyn was turned out by
a rope company of that city recently. ”
It measured 17,700 feet in length, or
over three miles, without a break,
and weighed 22,030 pounds. It is •
for use in a bituminous coal mine,
was made of forty-two strands of
crucible cast steel, took sixteen days
to manufacture and was valued at
$2,300.
