T. A. Slocum. M. U., the Great Chemist
and Scientist, Will Send Free, to the
Afflicted, Three Bottles of His
Newly Discovered Remedies
to Cure Consumption
and All Lung Trou
bles.
Nothing can be fairer, more phil
anthropic or carry more joy to the af
flicted, than the offer of T. A. Slocum,
M. C., of 183 Pearl street, New Yoak
City.
Confident that he has discovered
an absolute care for consumption and
all pulmonary complaints, and to make
its great merits known, he will send
free, three bottles of medicine, to any
reader of Tiie Jackson Herald who
is suffering from chest, bronchial,
throat and lung troubles or ccnsump
tion.
Already this “new pclentific course
of mediciue” has permanently cured
thousands of apparently hopeless
eases.
The Doctor considers it his relig
ious duty—a duty which he owes to
humanity—to denote his infaliiable
cure.
Offered freely, is enough to com
mend it, and more bo is the perfect
confidence of the great chemist mak
ing the proposition.
Ha has proved the dreaded con
sumption to be a curable disease be
yond any doubt.
There will be no mistake in sending
—the mistake will be in overlooking
the generous invitation. He has on
fiie in his American and European
laboratories testimonials of experience
from those cored, in all parts cf the
world.
Don’t delay UDtil it is too late. Ad

Practical Education.
The tendency toward practical ed
ucation is growing wonderfully in
this country. Everywhere there is
a demand for the education of the
hand as well as of the mind, and this
demand is being met in greater or
less degree in the great majority of
our schools.
The Chicago board of education
has determined that the girls in the
public sohools of that city shall be
taught to cook and sew.
These are very valuable things for
girls to know. If a girl is worth a
million dollars and lives in a palace,
it is of great advantage to her to
know how to cook ank sew. It makes
her a more complete and a more use
ful woman. The great majority of
girls in this country will be in such
circumstances throughout their lives
that practical knowledge of this sort
will help them and others.
There are a few accomplishments
which become a woman so well as to
know how to use the needle skill
fully. In olden times princesses were
proud of their sewing and em
broidery. Every woman, rich or
poor, should be educated in the use
of the needle.
And can estimate the value to
the country of an improvement in
our methods of cooking?
Bad cooking is a prolific source of
suffering and disease. It makes
millions miserable and increases the
death rate fearfully.
When all our women know how to
cook well we will be a stronger and
happier people.
The Chicago board of education
has set an example which might well
be followed in the other school sys
tems of the country which Lave not
already included sewing and cooking
in the list of things to be taught.—
Ex.
W. C. Brann, the late editor of
the Iconoclast, Waco, Texas, is
credited with the following: “The
dollar is indeed almighty. It is the
Archimedian lever that lifts the ill
bread man into select society and
places the ignorant saphead in the
United States senate; it makes presi
dents of stuffed prophets, governors
of intellectual geese, philosophers of
fools and gilds infamy with super
natural glory. It wrecks altars of
innocence and pullutes the face of
the people; breaks the sword of jus
tice and binds the goddess of liberty
with chains of gold. It is the lord
of the land, the uncrowned king of
the commonwealth.”

The Adam Forepaugh and Sells
Brothers’ Huge United
Circus Parades.
Bearing in mind that all tented
shows are bound to make the best
possible public appearance as their
culminating and most effective ad
vertisement, and that, therefore,what
is shown for nothing is a pretty re
liable indication of the quantity and
quality of that which you pay to see,
the real magnitude and resources of
the great Adam Forepaugh and Sells
Brothers’ America’s Greatest Shows
Consolidated may be fairly estimated
by the size and elegance of their
united parades, at Athens on the
morning of Tuesday, November Bth.
Hitherto the parade of either show
named has been an exceptionally big
and brilliant one, wherefore, it may
be reasonable anticipated that all
combined, and with many rare and
costly features added they will prove
what Young America would term “a
stunner,” easily outclassing anything
of the kind ever seen in this vicinity,
or, for that matter, anywhere else.
The amount of capital, the number
of rare wild beasts in open and per
forming dens; of the finest and most
richly caparisoned horses, and the
superbness and glorious variety of
spectacular effects, is almost fabu
lous. There is the finest pageant
vehicles ever built, the chariot of
Euterpe, the largest vehicle of the
kind ever moved, drawn by twenty
four horses, twelve coal-black and
twelve snow-white steeds, hitched
alternately, forming a massive equine
checker board; chariot of the nations,
on the summit sits the goddess of
liberty, and a living lion loose at her
feet; magnificent chariot of Cuba,
with Cuban soldiers armed with the
deadly machete; there are two sepa
rate biggest herds of the biggest
elephants; Cleopatra’s barge of sta*e,
which is a sumptuous and fascinat
ing Oriental revelation; massive car
of Juggernaut, drawn by elephants
and carrying aloft a living elephant
high in air; a hundred or more glit
tering chariots, cages, elfin cars and
Mother Goose golden allegories, and
great cavalcades of performers and
attendants in radiant armor and re
splendent dress, while every acces
sory is on the lavish scale of half a
dozen imperial Roman triumphs.—
Ex.
Henry Grady to Young Men.
Never gamble. Of all the vices
that enthrall men this is the worst,
the strongest and most insiduous.
Outside the immorality of it, it is the
poorest business and poorest fun. No
man is safe that plays at all. It is
easier never to play. I never knew
a man, a gentleman, who did not re
gret the time and money wasted at
it. A man who plays poker is unfit
for any other business on earth.
Never drink. I love liquor, and
love fellowship involved in drinking.
My safety has been that I never
drank at all. It is much better not
to drink at all than to drink a little.
If I had to attribute what I have
done in life to any one thing, I should
attribute it to the fact that I am a
teetotaler. As sure as you are born,
it is the best and safest way.
If you never drink and never gam
ble and marry early, there is no limit
to the useful and distinguished life
you may live. You will be the pride
of your father’s heart and the joy of
your mother’s. I don’t know if there
is any happiness on earth worth hav
ing outside of the happiness of know
ing that you have done your duty
and tried to do good. You try to
build up. There are always plenty
of those who will do the tearing
down that is necessary. You try to
live in the sunshine. Men who stay
in the shade always get mildewed.

And the Mule Got Well.
Last week one of the large gray
mules belonging to Messrs. Ramsy
& Oliver got sick.
Probably you wouldn’t imagine so,
but there are sixty-nine horse doc
tors in this vicinity, and twenty-three
of them prescribed for the sick mule.
As best we can recollect, the fol
lowing medicines were given:
1 quart turpentine, rubbed on.
3 ounces chloroform.
3 ounces paregoric.
4 bottles medicamentum.
3 pounds salts.
1 gallon strong soapsuds.
1 pound home-made tobacco.
13 boxes Tutt’s pills.
3 quarts sorghum liquor.
We can’t recollect the other four
teen doses that were administered,
but we think there were several
pitch-forks, claw-hammers and peg
ging awls thrown in for safety.
Nobody ever found out what ailed
the mule, but it is now surmised that
he had toothache.
The most remarkable part of all is
that the critter got well and is now
on the road as usual.—Alpharetta
Free Press.
The following old-time handbill,
issued near Lancaster, England, and
unearthed by the Youth’s Compan
ion, must have come from one who
was emulating the example of the
man who had five talents and made
of them five talents more. Let us
hope he was rewarded:

Again we have been requested to
publish an obituary and resolutions
for nothing concerning the death of
a certain person. We cannot work
for nothing, especially when it comes
to whitewashing the memory of one
who left illegitimate children to suf
fer and who, during life, was always
making love to mens wives. When
we are requested to publish an ac
count of this kind of whitewashing
the money must accompany the or
der. In fact, we do not publish an
obituary written about even a Chris
tian for nothing, although this could
be done without taking up much
space, as they are very much like
angels visits —few and far between.

The Kansas City Journal asserts
that the Populists of Kansas meas
ure even the commonest circum
stances of life through their political
significance. “If a funeral goes by,”
says the Journal, “they cast a quick
look at the cofiiin in the hearse and
then commence to figure on the pol
itics of the hack drivers. One of the
State official changed his boarding
house because the widow who runs
it once had a husband who voted the
Republican ticket. The executive
council appointed a committee to see
if the man who sold ginger pop on
the State Honse grounds was a true
reformer.”—Ex.

An Editer Loose.
This is the way a newspaper man
feels, when he does his sentiment in
blank verse:
•‘I would flee from the city’s rule
and law—from its fashions and forms
cut loose—and go where the straw
berry grows on the straw and the
gooseberry grows on the goose;
where the catnip tree is climbed by
the cat as she clutches for her prey
the guileless and unsuspecting rat
on the ratan bush at play; I will
catch with ease the saffron cow and
the cowlets in their glee, as they leap
in joy from bough to bough on the
top of a cowslip tree; and list while
the partridge drums his drum and
the woodchuck chucks his wood, and
the dog devours the dogwood plum
in the primitive solitude.
“0, let me drink from the moss
grown pump, that was hewn from
tho pumpkin tree! Eat mush and
milk from a rural stump, from folly
and fashions free—new gathered
mush from the mushroom vine, and
milk from the milkweed sweet—
with the pineapple from the pine.
And then to the whitewashed dairy
I’ll turn, where the dairy maid has
tening hies, her ruddy and golden
red butter to chum from the milk of
her butterflies; and I’ll rise at mom
with the earliest bird, to the fra
grant farmyard pass, and watch
while the farmer turns his herd of
grasshoppers out to grass.”—Pacific
Union.
What Paul Said.
Guests had arrived unexpectedly
at the country parsonage on Sunday
morning. The weekly supply of
butter had run short, so the hospita
ble host dispatched old Joe, the col
ored man, to his neighbor, Mr. Paul,
whose dairy always boasted a surplus.
The parson proceeded to church
with his well prepared sermon—some
of the best sayings of the great apos
tle, and was well under way with it
when old Joe, returning empty
handed, concluded he would quietly
slip in and hear his master preach.
Just as he entered, the preacher
stretched forth his hand in a most
impressive interogation of voice and
manner, and called out: “And what
did Paul say?” Distinctly sounded
through the church old Joe’s reply:
“He say, Marster, he ain’t goin’ to
let you have no more butter till you
pay for dat last you got.”—Ex.
One on the Lawyers.
“Have you a lawyer?” asked Judge
Reese of one of the jail birds being
put upon trial during the session of
court last week.
“No, sir.”
“Want a lawyer?”
“Yes, sir.”
“Mr. C.,” said the judge to one of
the young lawyers at the bar, “will
you defend this man?”
“Yes, sir.”
“Have you a lawyer?” asked the
judge of prisoner No. 2.
“No, sir.”
“Want one?”
“Yes, sir.”
“Mr. D., will you defend him?”
“Yes, Bir.”
“Got a lawyer?” was asked the
thiid culprit.
“No, sir.”
“Want a lawyer?”
“Well, Jedge,” slowly said the
prisoner as he gave the two young
barristers a criticising look, “I
b’lieve I ’fers to make my own state
ment.”
And the judge had to wrap for or
der more than once before the audi
ence could control its laughter. The
said young lawyers failed to catch
the gist of the joke, however.—Ogle
thorpe Echo.
Here is a formula of prosperity
from Hon. Pope Brown:
“I have no desire to dictate, but
I firmly believe that if I could en
force the planting of crops in the
south on the following plan for five
years’ time the farmers of this sec
tion would be independent. I would
cultivate fifty acres to the mule.
This I would divide as follows:
Seventeen acres in com, with old
lied Ripper peas in the drill, and
ground peas in the middle of the
rows, seventeen acree in wheat, rye
and oats, three acres in ground peas
solid, one acre in cane, one acre in
melons and truck, an acre in potatoes
and ten acres in cotton. After the
oats and other grain, that land could
be planted in com and peas, used as
a pasture or to make hay as de
sired.”
An exchange hits the nail squarely
on the head when it says: “Whenever
you hear a man finding fault of his
local paper, open it, ten to one he
hasn’t an advertisement in it; five to
one he never gives it a job of print
ing; three to one that he does nol
take the paper; two to one if he is a
subscriber he is a delinquent. Even
odds he never does anything in any
way that will assist r *he publisher to
run a good paper, and forty to ono
if the paper is good and full of life*
he is the most eager to see it when it
comes out
