There’s not a place in earth or heaven, There’s not a task to mankind given, r . There’s not a blessing or a woe. There’? not a whispered “yes” or “no,” , There’s not a life, a death, a birth, There’s not a feather’s weight or worth, Without a woman in it. —Kate Field. Will Boynton spent yesterday in Atlanta. W.

Wanamaker And Advertiser- Mr John Wanamaker undoubtedly is the most successful retail merchant in the country. To the Wool and Cotton reporter he thus explains his suvcees: “I never in my life used such a thing as a poster or a dodger 01 a band bill. My plan for twenty years has been to buy so much space in a newspaper, and fill it up as I wanted. I would not give an advertisement in a newspaper of 500 circulation sot 5,000 dodgers or posters If I wanted to sell cheap jewelry or run a gambling scheme, I might use posters; but I would not insult a decent reading pub lie with hand bills The class who use them are too poor to look to to support mercantile affairs. I owe my success to newspapers, and to them I freely give a certain profit of my yearly bus iness.” Lieutenant to Be Elected- It is understood that E. M. Drewry, the well known insurance man, will be elected to the second lieutenancy of Company B, Second battalion, to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Lieut. Dearing. The election will be held Tuesday night, Feb. 8, and Mr. Drewry will doubtless be chosen by unanimous vote.—Chattanooga Times. There is more Catarrh In this section of the country than all the other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurab’.e. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a consti tutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.. Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu tional cure on the market, lit is taken in ternally in doses from 10 drops to a tea spoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system.
