Legislators dearly love free * riding. It makes their mileage so much clear money, and enables them to come home whenever they wish it. i , —Sparta Isbmaelite. Expansionist statesmen and editors are having, literally, a dueced time of explaining away the Declaration of In dependence and lbe*Conetitution of the United Slates, for the purpose of de fending their proposed despotic gov ernment of Porto Rico and the Philip pines.—Chattanooga Times. The negro will continue to be a rot ton apple of discord in this country. The latest in ilcation ie that “the Grand Lodge of Masons of Maryland has resolved to cut off all communica tion with that of the State of Washing ton, unless the latter body shall rescind its action extending recognition to the negro Grand Lodges of the country.” The Cleveland Plain Dealer says \ there ie talk of establishing tbe whip ping post in Chicago, and, strange to say, tbe papers up there seem to agree thr.t it ie just the thing lor the refor mation of franchise grabbers and swindling contractors. Chicago has queer notions about fitting tbe punish ment to the crime, as the Mikado has IL. What public opinion amounts to in Russia may be gathered from tbe recent census cf that empire, which shows that in a population of 129,000,- 000 there are only 743 newspapers, or one to every 160,000 people. Os these 589 are in Russian, 69 in Polish, 41 in German, 9in French, 5 in Armenian 2in Hebrew. No English papers ap pears in tbe list. A correspondent of the London Daily News notes the growth nf the use of English on the continent. Wherever he went he was able to con vene with statesmen and diplomatists in bis native tongue. He found that as a rule the governing classes io E’j rope would understand and speak English. In the Russian royal family especially, English is the familiar language of conversation.

Fill a bottle or common glass with your water and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling indicates an unheal thy condition of the kidneys; if it stains your linen it is evidence of kidney trouble; too frequent desire to pass it or pain in the back is also convincing proof that the kid neys and bladder are out of order. What to Do. There is comfort in the knowledge so of ten expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp- Root,the great kidney remedy, fulfills ev ery wish in curing rheumatism, pain in tbe back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passages. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during tbe day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp- Root is soon realized. It stands tbe high est for its wonderful cures of the most dis tressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have tbe best. At druggists fifty cents or one dollar. You may h >ve a sample bottle and a book that tells more about it, both sent absolutely free by mail, if you send your address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bingham ton, N. Y. When writing be sure and mention that you read this generous offer <n the Middle Georgia Farmer. Consumption W -Jfl AWD Itfl THE Editor t-I have an absolute remedy for Consumption. By its timely use thousands of hopeless cases have been already permanently cured. So proof-positive am I of its power that I consider it my duty to send two botilts frtt to those of your readers who have Consumption, Throat, Bronchial or Lung Trouble, if they will write me their express and postoffice address.

The Greatest Ever Known. THE —: MUTUfILLIFE INSURANCE CO. OF NEW YORK. Breaks The Dividend Record. It has always held the record securely, but the claim paid by the compa ny upon a policy issued to Mr. Mark Banks, of Connecticut, the. particulars of which are given here, shows that THE MUTUAL LIFE has in this in stance eclipsed all previous dividend results: Mr. Banks was insured for • 29 The dividends amounted to • • ..12 t ua>.w Paid to the estate • $17,028.00 How does this happen? Mr. Banks paid all the premiums in cash, and he did this for fifty-tour years. He did not utilize any portion of the divi dends in payment of premiums, but permitted the Company to invest these for his benefit. Here are the particulars: Policy No. 1,288. Issued March 5,1845. > s > ooo - Age 40. Annual premium, $l6O. Life Plan. Original insurance in 1845 Dividend additions paid in 1898, ~12,028.00 Amount of death claim 1 2’2?2’22 54 Premiums paid by insured -8,040. W Realized to estate over premiums paid - SB.BBBOO Being nearly equal to a return of all the premiums paid with two and a halt (2J) P e * cent, compound interest per annum, with insurance increasing annually from $5,000 at age 40, to $17,028 at age 94. The dividend additions paid to the estate were 139 per cent, of all the premiums paid for tbe insurance. Mr. Mark Banka was the treasurer and cashier of the Greenwich Savings Bank, and died at the good old age of ninety-four. He appreciated the power of compound interest, and his wisdom is exemplified by the result of his method of investment —a result that has never been equalled by a policy holder in any other company in the world.
