Dr. (joss of Athens and Dr.
Holmes of Atlanta both agreed that
the stroke of paralysis was caused
from smoking cigarettes. These
phjsieans say that he will soon re
cover from the stroke, but warned
him against the future use of eigar

ho is employed at Athens said the day
he was stricken. Vic had just fin

you don’t qtjit smoking cigarettes,
sonic of these times you will fall over
insensible, and you may thereafter
be affected for lile.”

The President'« Message.
President McKinley sent in
meHWMf0 Tuesday which is the
longest message ever sent by a
prudent. Trie features of it
th< terms in which he declares for
it single gold standard, and that
he thinks we ought to keep the
Philippine Islands. He jumps on
trusts and says a lot if lie means
what he says. He favors the
Mrarmiga canal, and also wants
a court of civil procedure estab
lished in Hawaii. The message
has no.extra feature and recom
mends no form of government but
leaves it, all with congress.
A sensation like to have been
created in town recently by a mar
ried wpitRm and a single man in
Duhlonega exchanging a few words
of love, abusing the husband to
get in a‘ notion to ’’take up Ins
bed ai.d walk.” But he recon
sidered the matter .and they re
newed their love. It is a good
thing a separation didn’t occur
for the weather was too
able for the old women to go from
/place to place and sit and talk
about it.—Nugget.
Not long ago the relatives of a
young lady came and carried her
home. It was the old, old story.
The girl is ruined for life but the
one who caused her run goes in the
best society quite likely and is not
even frowned at. This is the dif
ference between the two sexes.
The girl goes down wl e 1 she
makes a misstep and the young
man who is just as guilty as the
girl goes up if there is any change.
Wo believe the gates of hell are
standing ajar for any one who
ruins the character of a young
girl.—Dahlouega Nugget.
