other day, when a nn b wanted to
lynch a man who hid frightened two ,
iittie gills. Tilt Philadelphia Times,
in reporting the occurrence, says ; “A 1

rope, and follower! by over a score of
others tM'ially enraged, started in pur- (
suit The fugit wa- gn£, and m
lets time than it takes to tell, dragged *
op the high bunk and on a large va

the crowd paid no attention to his
cries and struggles, as they pulled and
jerked him over the ground toward a
lamp post, over the cr .sspiece of w hich
dangled a rope with a prepared nooae.” t
The police came up at that time, and ‘j
after a struggle succeeded in rescuing
tlie man, amid cries of “Lynch him!” t
from men and women.

Scientists have made the discovery
that flies are pernicious and persistent
distributors of disease germs of about
all kinds The bacilli adhere to the
feet and proboecets of the flies, and are
thus deposited upon food and in drink,
and upon plates and cups and drink
ing glasses. Every person, and espe
cially every housekeeper, knows how I
nearly impossible it is to get rid of
flies. But the scientists gratify us
with the information that tbe fly is nn
unnecessary evil, and that it csjn be
got rid of effectually, by adopting
heroic measures. Ge 1 rid <>l the Lorre,
says a Philadelphia scientist, »ud the
fly will go also. He says tbe greatest
of all breeding places for flies is in the |
stables and the sweeping heaps, and I
that when these are abolished (rum i
the cities the flies will go with them, i
Thia being correct, and there is no
doubt a good deal ol teainn in the I
Philadelphia man’s asst rli.m, there is
an added cause for hailing with pleas
ure the apparent near approach of
the horseless ige in s > far »s 'tie cities
are concerned.

an. Ibe mob may or may not succeed
in getting posses-ion of the to gm, but
if they could lay their bauds on him,
they would certainly lynch him. This
is only another instance going toshow
that the people at the north, ns well
as those of the south are ready to
swing up the black brute who selects a
white woman or a little child aa his
victim- The crime is not committed
•o often in the north, because the ne
gro population there is small. If the

iq the southern states, there would be
as many lynchings there as in the

THE CAUSE OF
DYSPEPSIA.
Loss of Vitality Known to be the Parent of this Dread
Disease—The Method of Cure that Has
Proved Most Successful.
f'rom the Jiepublican, Scranton, Penna.
The most common of all human ailments ;
‘ is deranged digestion: the most aggravating
disease, inherited by man, dyspepsia. In
i sidiou. in its nature, varied in its forms it
I tortures its victims, baffles the skill of phy
sicians and the power of medicine.
The primary cause of dyspepsia is lack of
vitality; the absence of nerve force; the loss
of the life sustaining elements of the blood.
It is a truism that no organ can properly
i perform its function when the source of
nutriment fails; when it is weakened on one
hand and over-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
I and torture of dyspepsia is furnished by the
case of Joseph T. Vandyke, 440 Hickory Bt.,
Scrantpn. Pa.
In telling his story Mr. Vandvke says:
“Five years ago, I 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. 1 did not know what the ailment
was, but it became steadily worse and I was
in constant misery.
“I called in my fkmily physician, a- 1 he
diagnosed the ease as catarrh of the stomach.
He prescribed for me and I had his prescrip
tion filled. I took nearly all of the medi
cine, but still the trouble became worse,
and I felt that my condition was hopeless.
My friends recommended various proprie
tary remedies, some of them among the best i

in the market, but I tried several of them
without receiving benefit. After 1 had been
suffering several months, and had secured
no relief from any of the many remedies
which I had taken, a friend of mine, by the
name of Thomas Campbell, also a resident
of this city, urged me to try Dr. Williams’
Fink Pills for Palo People. I told him it
would be a useless waste of money to buy
them, as I was convinced that nothing could
do me any good.
“I was finally persuaded to buy a box
nnd began to use the pills according to
directions. Before I had taken tha 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 nnfailing specific is found in Dr. Wil
liams’Pink Pills for Pale People for such
diseases ns locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis,
St. Vitus’dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheuma
tism, nervous headache, the after effect 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. I n men they effect
a radical cure in all cases arising from mental
worry, overwork or excesses of whatever
nature. These pills are manufactured by the
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
box or six boxes for $2.50, and are never sold
in bulk. They may be had of all druggists.
LAND POOR.
A Scheme to Give Evary Man a
Farm, by a Person Who is
Land Poor.
Mr. Editor : Some years ago I took an
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 1 can profitably make use of,
and consequently want to get rid of some,
or all of it, and I have decided to adopt
the following measure to get rid of it:
1 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 hog’, and is the best for
cotton, corn, wheat, oats and other grains
in the county. There are a number of
tenant houses on tbe 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. par 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-acie lots, at $lO per acre, giving more
than 50 acres to one party, if desired, and
less than 50 t) another, according to his
ability to pay for it, as tbe case may be,
tbe entire quantity tobi drawn for.
In other words, the number of lots and
quantity- of land to be put in a bat or box,
and drawn out under approval of a com
mittee of gentlemen, at some stated time,
so that all shall have a fair chance to get a
home at a low price, and no one has a
chance of losing their maney, or failing to
get their 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 00,000 people, and is
adapted to market 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 tbe best of pastures,
water, springs, creeks, etc. The land is
timbered with hickory, beach, oak and
pine, and some cedar; in fact, it is the best
'■ place I know of, and lam satisfied the ed
itor ol the Call will vouch for what I
say.
I would be glad to have any parties who
mean business, to go over the plantation,
familiarize themselves with the advan
i tages, and communicate with me at
Barnesville, 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 ot one or two parties for years, and
have never been questioned and gre as
goad as gold.
lam not particularly wedded to this
plan of getting rid of my lands, but only
suggest the idea—any better plan would
b. thankfully substituted.
