The Milwaukee Sentinel gives the following definition of the word “gents”, which is worth remembering. Says the Sentinel: “As to the word ‘gents,’ that is a good word, inas¬ much as it describes a class that no other word describes. There are per¬ sons who are not quite gentlemen and yet who are not altogether boors; who dress as gentlemen dress, though they are not of gentle breed¬ ing, and yet who do not belong to the hearty, natural, genuine and un¬ pretentious sons of horny-handed toil. They have rnouey and they are loud, presuming and offensive to gentle souls, and they claim to be gentlemen. In respect of some things they show indications of gentleman¬ liness, in respect of others they are vulgar. The term ‘gents,' falling short of the term ‘gentleman,’ is a very good term to apply to them.' Merit W Ins.

MOVEMENT TO GETRI1) OF THE PARLOR FULMINATOR. The Legislature to be Asked to Pro¬ hibit the Sale and Use of Parlor Matches In Georgia. “The general assembly should pro¬ hibit by law the use or sale of what is known as parlor matches in the state,” said an observing gentleman to a News reporter. The gentleman, who has recently been in New York, took out his match case, and, taking from it one of the little black-head sulpher matches, re¬ marked, “These are the safest matches, and the only kind permit¬ ted to be used in the New York hotels. It will not flash up when tramped upon. I believe the cotton fires are largely due to the explosive match- They are dangerous, and to their use many of the fires at country gin houses may be charged. Suppose that a negro has a spite against the owner of the gin: a parlor match or two dropped in the gin, or hidden away in the cotton will do the work- When the match strikes any phrt of the machinery in its passage through the gin there is a flash, and the gin house is in flames. “The wharfmen at Savannah carry these matches, and it is common to see them loosely stuck in between the hat and hat-band, or behind the ear, as a clerk carries his pencil in the counting room, or they are carried loosely in the pocket. The match drops on the dock, a bale of eottop turned over on it will explode the match, and the fire will communicate to the cotton. It may blaze up at once, or the fire may eat its way fh'to the bale and break out on shipboard, in the warehouse, or at the compress, and every one wonders how the fire started. “There is talk of raising the iusur- nnce.rates on cotton, or abandoning risks at Savannah,” said the gentle¬ man, “if cotton fires continue. Ex¬ clude the parlor match, which is dangerous wherever it is used, and these fires will be less frequent. The only way to exclude them is to make it unlawful to buy or sell them in the state. “Sometimes when one strikes tie parlor match theexplodingfulminate will fly half way across a room, often unnoticed, and muny of the fires in stores and residences are to be ascrib¬ ed to the use of such dangerous agen¬ cies for striking a light.” The chief official of one of the larg¬ est railroad systems in the south has been informed that there is real danger that rates will be advanced on cotton going to Savannah if the fires continue, and the opinion is wide-spread that the parlor match has had its share in the work of de¬ struction. The matter has been brought to the attention of represen¬ tatives, with an appeal that an effort be mad? to pass' a law before the close of the session of the legislature, prohibiting the sale and use of parlor matches in Georgia. A Little Girl’s Mistake. Little Lizzie may not have made such a mistake after all, when she told her playmate that-mamma began' was ever so much better since she taking “Golden Medal Discovery.” Lizzie meant Dr. Pierce’s Golden Med¬ ical Discovery, but many a restored sufferer has felt that the discoverer was worth of a golden medal. Better than all the medals, is the conscious¬ ness that thousands oicases of Con¬ sumption, “Liver Complaint," Kid¬ ney Diseases, and diseases of the blood, have been cutedby it. Lizzie’s mamma was oneof a countless army who have learned by experience the virtues of the “Discovery" for diseas¬ ed livers and consequent impure blood. It cures all Skin. Scalp and Scrofulous Affections, Salt-rheum, Tetter, Erysipelas, Boils and kindred of ailments. It is the only medicine its class, sold by druggists, under a positive guarantee that it will bene¬ fit or cure in all cases of disease for which it is recommended, or money paid for it will be refunded.
