Ml THE EAGLE Discord In the Choir. Drilling a volunteer choir is the must exasperating work ever undertaken by _ a human being. In the first place it is i ; morally certain that at least half a dozen members think they know more than the leader, and two or three are al ways better informed than the man who wrote the music, so they offer, with cheerful alacrity, the most idiotic sug gestions as to the manner in which it should 1** performed, and feel much ag grieved if their ideas are not acted on. .......

They are not responsible for all the trouble, hut when they do quarrel they generally manage to enlist the men in the service of both sides, and the first thii.g the leader knows one half his choir has quit and the other half is about to do so because they are not numerous enough to make a creditable chorus. A choir leader says: "I have gone into church on .Sunday morning and found six or eight members sitting in the con gregation. instead of in their places, and the rest glaring at them from the organ stand. It is fun for them and for the people, but it’s death to the leader." —St. Louis Globe-Democrat. j LiPPKAN BHUS., Proprietors, Einggists, bippmau’s Block, SAVANNAH, !

Speaking of congress gaiters and drowning recalls a fashionable middle aged physician who thoroughly believes in this fatality. lie gave it away in this wise: While consulting a man iu deli- cato health about his care for himself in the winter time the doctor said: "What kind of shoes have you got on?" They proved to bo the fatal congress gaiters, and the doctor objected. "Did you ever seo an account of a drowned man found in the bay that didn’t say he had on con gress gaiters? You laugh and say that doesn’t make any difference, and there is no connection of cause and effect. “How do you know there isn’t? You can’t trace it, but I’m not certain that i congress gaiters do not tend to such j moral and physical degeneracy that a j man is liable to fall off a ferry lx>at, or i in a fit of despondency to jump into the! river. At any rate 1 don’t wear them. I told a woman the same thing once and j slio laughed. 1 went on, and when ! | leached home found a letter from her. saying she had picked up a paper after 1 i went away, and the first thing found j several confirmations of what I said, and j slio wanted to admit that she was con vinced.”—New York Tribune. ; for Coughs.

Washington, D. C. A Certain Cure for Dyspepsia. There la perhaps no disease so prevalent as Dyspepsia and indigestion, and ono too, that up to the present time naa baffled the skill of the most eminent physicians. Two-thirds of the chronic diseases have their origin in Dyspepsia. The symptoms are less of appetite, loss of flesh, a feeling of fulness or weight in the stomach, occasionally nausea and vomiting,acidity, flatu lence, dull pain In the head, with a sensation of heaviness or giddiness, Irregularity of lmwels, low spirits, sleeplessness, sallow skin, derange ment of kidneys, and not unf~muently palpfta- Mon of the heart. If you are suffering with any of these symptoms Da. Holt’s Dvspkktic Llixib will cure you. Prepared only by Dr. Holt’s Dyspeptic Elixir Comptny, VOXTEZUXA, GA clouds. The highest clouds, cirrus and cirro-stratus, rise on an average to a height of nearly 510,000 feet. The mid dle clouds keep at from 10,000 feet tc 28,000 feet in height, while the lower clouds reach to between 8.0C0 feet and 7,000 feet. Tho cumulus clouds float with their lower surface at a height of from 4.000 to 5,000 fee$ while their summits rise to 10,000 feet-. The tops of the Alps are often hidden by clouds of the third class, but the bottoms of th»* clouds of the second class, and esjie chilly of tho thunderclouds, often enfold them. Tho “ertical dimension of a cloud ob served by Professor Moller on the Notle- berg was over 1,200 feet He stepped out of it at a height of about 51.700 feet, and high above tho mountain floated clouds of the middle class, while veils of mist lay in tho ravines and clefts. The upper clouds were growing thicker, while the lower ones were dissolving, and soon it began to rain and snow.— Public Opinion. A Smart Detective. Sergeant Moser on one occasion saw a waiter in a cafe at Soho receive and place in his pocket a letter which the de tective believed to be from a criminal a knowledge of whose whereabouts he was anxious to obtain. He therefore drop ped his ring on the floor and asked the man to look for it. Alphonse, expecting a reward, immediately went on his hands and knees, and while thus en gaged Sergeant Moser abstract' d the let ter from his pocket and thus obtained ♦he means of bringing a forger to jus tice. Who can doubt that this was a perfectly justifiable act? But if. instead, Sergeant Moser had suborned another person to steal for reward, and without telling him the object in view, he would most assuredly have acted very wrongly —Spectator. .The First Silk Mill in England. A j*>rtion of the old mill built by John Lombe at Derby in 1718—the first silk mill ever erected in England—has col lapsed, and it is expected that the whole building will have to come down. Lombe worked as a silk weaver in Italy, and at the risk of his life made drawings of the machinery. He then returned to Eng- lund, bringing some Italian workmen, and built the factory on an island in the Derwent, having first patented the ma chinery. He died soon afterward, and it is said lie won poisoned by a female emissary of the Italian manufacturers. The mill was worked for many years, but has long been in disuse. It was last utilized as a steam laundry, and was condemned some years silicons beingun safe.— Galignani Messenger. J O. MATHEWS, ATT! >RNKY-AT-LA W. * 22114 Forsyth street, Americiis, Ga.
