Pointed Per»<raph» The banco man does his best 'to make fanning pay- It U an easy matter to bear the aches of another*? coma. The man who lives for himaeli alone hasn’t much to live for. [ When women meet they gossip and when men meet they go sip. A little flour by any other name would no doubt smell as wheat More men have been ruined by schemes than by bad companionship. When a woman can’t get a servant to do her work there is no help for it There is no man so bad but that he has a secret respect for one that’s good. It is useless to worry, but it is useless to tell a man that it is useless to worry. Fashion has decreed it and the bustle will again bring up the rear of beauty’s train. It is said that eating onions will prevent a mustache from coming on a woman’s lip. A physician says that cigarette smoking causes softening of the brain; but he does not say how he found it out Men may come and men may go, but a man’s mother-in-law usually takes off her things and makes herself at home. The common belief that it is difficult tor a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven prevents few men from trying to get rich. —Chicago News.

Three years ago I contracted a blood poison. I applied to a physician at once, and his treatment came near killing me. I employed an old physician and then went to Kentucky. I then went to Hot Springs and remained two months. Noth ing seemed to cure me permanently, al though temporary relief was given me. I returned home a ruined man physically, with but little prospect of ever getting well I was persuaded to try Botanic Blood Balm (B. B. B.) and to my utter astonish ment it quickly healed every ulcer. Z;*T. Hallekton, Macon, Ga. CASTORIA For Infants and Children. Fine Cane Pasture.
