ECONOMY.
It is the economical man who succeeds
in life and is happy. His wife always wears
;ood clothes, and his children always
lave plenty of syrup on their bread. He
is uot worried to death by duns, and be
don't have to sneak np a back alley la
order to avoid the man he owes. By
economical nmn I don’t mean n stiL w
man, for there’s n big difference between
economy and stinginess. Your sting
man don't enjoy anything, not even hi
breath, i for he's afraid to ,draw a full
breath for fear he won’t have enough to
last the day ont.
Economy means to bay tbo best at the
lowest prices, and that is the reason why
all economical people bay their furniture
of D. B. Hill, for they know that bis fur
niture is well and neatly made, durable
and handsome, and sold at prices os low
os good furniture can bo sold for. The’
know that he keeps a large atocL
and that they can make a good selec
tion, get what they want, and there is
more in that than you may tliiok, for
when you buy something yon do not
want you arc never satisfied with it.
There is another, thing your economi
cal man does—he always' buys as many
things as possible at one store, knowing
that when bo runs up a good bill he can
Iways get a good reduction, and that is
iiother reason why he buys at Hill's
Furniture Store, for tbero he can not only
find all kinds of furniture, blit ho can
buy dishes, crockery, lamps, silver and-
plated ware, curtains, cutlery, and in fact
almost anything to set up housekeeping.
Your economical man knows nll.this and
don’t fool away his timo and money by
running all over town after things that
ho can purchase at one place, and ho
knows that Hill is nlways liberal to good
customers.
Finally and in conclusion, my hearers,
can say that true economy consists in
buying your fnrnitnro and housekeeping
goods at D. B. Hill’s Furniture Storo,
which you will find on Cotton Avenue,
in Amcricus.

portancs to the world. Few people pass
through life without the affliction of a
cough At some point in their career. In
most cases this is considered the result
of a cold.or. tho beginning of consump
tion, and thousands have been terrified
at this revelation and have sought by n
change of air nd the use of cough mod-
iciu-e 16 avert the impending disaster.
It may Safety bo said that more than half
the coughs which are afflicting the world
to-day do u»t have their origin in the
lungs but ure the result of more serious
trouble^ in other organs of the body.
Liver cougLs are exceeding common
aud vet are almost wholly misunder
stood. Arising from a disordered
state of'tbe liver they show their results
by congesting the lungs. In fact, tbo
efforts of the liver to throw off the dis
ease, produce coughing even when tho
lungs themselves are in a healthy state.
But it is a mistake Co suppose that such
delicate tissues as the lungs can long re
main in a healthy condition when they
aro being constantly agitated by cough-
3g. Such a thoory would be‘absurd,
lopaumption, which was feared at first,
is certain to take place unless something
is done to check the cause. This mus,
be plain to every thoughtful mind. It
stAndg to reason, therefore, that the only
ttayin which “liver coughs” can be re
moved is by restoring the liver to henltb.
In. this connection another fact of
great importance becomes known, which
can best be explained by the relation of

dealer of Colorado became greAtly

physicians of tho country on pulmonio
subjects and began trontmont for the
cure of bis lungs. But his cough in
creased while his strength decreased. Fi
nally he determined to consult another
physician, aud applied to Dr. B .

soand, while bis kidneys wero
terrible condition, lie hnd all tho ap
parent symptoms of consumption but he
was suffering from tho terriblo Bright's
disease. The symptons Jofconsumption
are of tea the suro indication of Bright’s
disease.
The above truths regarding coughs
havo been known by the leading physi
cians for soverul years but the public
havo never been informed of them. They
aro serious facts, however, and should
bo understood by all so tbut dangers
which might otherwise prove fatal may
be avoided. They clenrly provo ono great
truth which is, that tho kidneys and liv
er aro such vital orguus that their health
should be constantly guarded. The dis
tressing, backing cough, which is ofton
dreaded as the forerunner of consump
tion aud tho wasting strength which ac
companies it, in all probability may arise
from wcakenod or diseased kidneys or
liver, to restoro which would causo re
turning health. How this most desira
ble end may be attained has long been a
problem, but few people of intelligence
at the present day have longer any doubts
that tho popular remedy known as War
ner's Safe Kidney und Liver Cure has
dono more to correct, rolievo aud restoro
theso organs than any other preparations
ever before known. There are hundreds
of instances which havo ocourred within
the past three months where individu
als havo believod themselves tho victims
of consumption, when, in reality it was
doranged kidneys and liver, whioh this
remarkablo medicine has completely
cured, as witness the following state
ment:
Bupvalo, N. Y. July 0, 1882.— I believe
it to be a fact that thousands of cases of
so-called consumption can be successful
ly trouted by simply using Warner’s Kafe
Kidney and Liver euro as directed. I
was one of the “givc-n up to die” pontons
—had every sympton of the last stage of
consumption -bad cough of four years
standing, night sweats, chills, etc. A
season south did no good, and, tho fuct
was, the caso looked discouraging. I
took Warner’s Safe Kidney and Liver
Cure, and in tbreo months I regained

Washington. Sept. 23 The lot
of the appointment clerk of the
treasury department is not a happy
one, as the scene that occurred in
Jbe appointment room to-day will
indicate. It appears that “Colonel
Jock" Brown, a well known Geor
gia politician, called upon Appoint
ment Clerk Butler this afternoon
for the purpose, it is said, ot en
deavoring to have a clerk in the
loan division of the secretary's
oflicc dismissed and n friend of his
(Brown’s) appointed to fill the va
enney. Mr. Butler said he was
powerless to do such a thing unless
no authorized by tho secretary.
Brown became rather angry, and
intimated that Butler has the pow.
or, but would not exercise it. Among
other tilings, Brown snid the man
ho wanted dismissed .was a demo
crat, and did not attend to his da
tics, but spent most of his time on
the street. Brown added that if a
messenger was sent to the loan di
vision, he would find the young
mau referred to absent. Mr. Flctcli
er, the chief of tho loan division
was sent for, and on IiIh arrival
stated that owing to tho Immediate
amount of work to be done in trens-
fering the extended government
bonds he was compelled to divldo
hia clerks into a day and night
force. He said this young man
belonged to the night force, and
consequently was at liberty during
the day, aud had the right to bo on
the streot if he wished to. This
statement was too mucli for Brown.
He grew more excited, and accused
Mr. Butler of attempting to prove
him u liar, and threatened to throw
him (Butler) out of tho window.
Mr. Butler also grew angry, and
denied having called Brown a liar,
and at the same time dared Brown
to try to put his threat into cxecu-
tion. Brown said the man did not
live who could call him u liar, and
challenged Butler to settle tha diffi
culty cither where they stood or
any place tho latter mentioned
The presence of spectators prevent
ed the two men from coming to.
gcllior. Brown abused Mr. Butler
until he was tired, mopped his fore
head with his handkerchief, and
then left tho room, vowing ven
geance on the, by this timo, calm
and collected appointment cicrk.

The bank cashier and two of the

when in comes the secretary with

“There it is again—another cash

^“Ah I” said the first director.

“Ah! that reminds me,” adds
the cashier. “If you hadn’t hap
