A down town woman, who is known among her friends as n decidedly stylish person, but who is quite indifferent t<> her toilet when at home, had an experi ence a short time ago which gave her quite a shock at the time. She had given a dinner party one day at which a very distinguished Englishman was entertained. The foreigner wan quite ; captivated by the charming hospitality j of his hostess, and when on his way to the station to leave the city the next day ho stopped at the house to pay his ; respects. All the servants were out, and the mistress of the house was by I no means dressed for company. She was | expecting the arrival of a new gown at ; the time, and thinking tiiat the ring was that of a messenger boy bringing it she went herself, in very slipshod attire, to the door. To hi r horror, when sin- opened the , door, she saw the face of the dietin* ’ guished Englishman. To her joy, how ever, be asked if her mistress was in. This cue was all that was needed. Quick as a flash she replied, “No, sir; she’s outriding." Without recognition the visitor left his card and went away with a decided opinion of the untidy appearance of Philadelphia -■ rvants.

Still the waiter did not go, but brushed the tablecloth with a towel and rearranged the articles on it several times, while his face got very red. Then he came around to John’s side, and, speaking sotto voce, said: “Say, mister, I haven’t been here long, and 1 m mJ on to all these things. Will the lady have the hassock broiled or fried ?” ( hieago ( hronicle. The Glasgow (Ry.)

Loss of Vitality Known to be the Parent of this Dread Disease- The Method of Cure that Has Proved Most Successful. — /'ram the liepublican, Scranton, J'enna. The most common of all human ailments : is deranged digestion: the most aggravating disease, inherited by man, dyspepsia. In- ■ ; sldiou* in its nature, varied in its forms it ■ ' tortures its victims, baffles the skill of phy- ! sicians and the power of medicine. 1 The primary cause of dyspepsia is lack of vitality; the absence of nerve force; the loss , of the life-sustaining elements of the blood. 1 It is a truism that no organ can properly perform its function when the source of nutriment fails; when it is weakened on one hand and orer-taxed on the other. When the stomach is robbed of the nourishment demanded by nature, assimilation ceases un natural gases are generated, the entire sys tem responds to the discord. A practical illustration of the symptoms and torture of dyspepsia is furnished by the esse of Joseph T. Vandyke, 440 Hickory St., | Scranton, Pa- in telling his story Mr. Vandyke says: "Five years ago, 1 was afflicted with a trouble of the stomach, which was very aggravating. I had no appetite, could not enjoy myself at any time, and especially was the trouble severe when I awoke in the morning. I did not know what the ailment was, but it became steadily worse and I was in constant misery. "I called in my fhmily physician, and he j diagnosed the case as catarrh of the stomach. | He prescribed for me and I had his prescrip-: tion filled. I took nearly all of the medi-; I cine, but still the trouble became worse, : and I felt tiiat my condition was hopeles-.

After I had been I suffering several months, and had secured i no relief from any of the many remedies which I 'had taken, a friend of mine, by the I mime of Thomas Campbell, also a resident I of this city, urged me to try Hr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. I told him it useWss waste of money to buy I them, ss I was convinced that nothing could Jo me any good. “I was finally persuaded to buy a box and began to use the pills according to directions. Before I had taken ths second box I began to feel relieved, and after taking a few more boxes I considered myself re stored to health. The pills gave me new life, strength, ambition and happiness.” An unfoilintr specific is found in Dr. Wil liams’ Pink Pills for Pale People for such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus’dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheuma tism, nervous headache, the after enect of la grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow complexions, that tired feeling result ing from nervous prostration, all diseases re sulting from vitiated humors in the blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc. They are also a specific for troubles peculiar to females, such as suppressions, irregularities and all forms of weakness. In men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental I worry, overwork or excesses of whatever I nature. These pills are manufactured by the I Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y., and are sold only in boxes bearing the firm’s trade-mark and wrapper at 50 cents a I box or six boxes for $2.50, nnd are never sold l in bulk. They may be had of all druggists. LAND POOR. A Schema to Give Evary Man a Farm, by a Person Who is Land Poor. Mu. Fdituli: > .i:k vi-iiiugii Ituokan idea that land was the safest investment that a man could make in Georgia, and as a consequence, I am now land poor; have more than I can profitably make use of, and consequently want to get rid pf some, or all of it, and I have decided to adopt the following measure to get rid of it: I will say,in the first place, that the land is the best in Monroe county, is fine ly watered, and is adapted to raising cat tle, sheep and hogs, and is the best lor cotton, corn, wheat, oats and other grains in the county. There arc a number of tenant houses on the place, and a home recently built that cost me over $3,000 to build. The land, in the first place, cost me from $25 down to $4 per acre—saying altogether, about $lO per acre, without improvements ; and to get rid of it, I will average the whole place at $lO per acre, in the following way : I will have the entire place, 1,000 acres, sub-divided into 50-acre lots, at $lO per acre, giving more than 50 acres to one party, if desired, and i less than 50 to another, according to his ability to pay for it, as the case may be, the entire quantity to be drawn for. In other words, tbe number of lots and quantity of land to be put in a hat or box, and drawn out under approval of a com mittee of gentlemen, at some stated time, so that all shall have a f,dr chance to get a home at a low price, and no one has a chance of losing their ni ir.ey, or failing to get tbeir value, as paid, and some get a farm at far less than cost The land is 12 miles from Macon, a city of some 50,000 or 60,000 people, and is adapted to maiket gardening, and for northern people who know how to work, it offers a fine opportunity for a colony of energetic citizens. It is all together, and would make a fine settlement, having the best of pastures, water, springs, creeks, etc. The land is timbered with hickory, beach, oak and nine, and some cedar; in fact, it is the best place 1 know of, and I am satisfied the ed itor of the Call will vouch for what I sav. I would be glad to have any parties who mean business, to go over the plantation, familiarize themselves with the advan tages, and communicate with me at Birr esville, before going into the matter, assuring them that I mean what I say. In addition to the terms offered above, I have concluded to make the terms of pay ment in four annual payments without interest, which is tantamount to putting the price of the land very low. The titles to the land have been in the posses sion of one or two parties for years, and have never been questioned and are as go id as gold. I am not particularly wedded to this plan of getting rid of my lands, but only suggest the idea—any better plan would bs thankfully substituted. 8. B.
