DYSPEPSIA
** For six years I was a victim of dys
pepsia in its worst form. I could eat nothing
out milk toast, and at times my stomach would
not retain and digest even that. Last March I
began taking CASCAKKTS and since then I
have steadiiy improved, until I am as well as I
ever was in iny life.”

A “Georgia Cracker’s” View of N. Y.
Yielding to the request of
friends, I submit in this article
•‘A Georgia Cracker’s” view of the
great metropolis, the foremost city
of the western hemisphere, and in
some respects the foremost city of
the world.
It is not my purpose to attempt
any description of the great city,
for the many who, from time to
time have been to New York, will
bear me out in saying that no
words can describe, no language
portray or. imagination picture
what New York really is. In this
article I will have to do only with a
few things that interested and im
pressed me most, not even touch
ing upon the innumerable and be
wildering attractions that meet
you at every turn.
On a bright and beautiful after
noon in August, I stepped from
the platform of the elegant vesti
bule train that runs from Atlanta
to Jersey City, and in a few mo
ments was aboard one of the Pen
sylvania rail road ferry boats that
conduct you across to the opposite
side.
It is strange liow scenes revisited
after the lapse of years will affect
one! Twenty-five years ago, 1
crossed that same ferry, in com
pany with my cherished husband,
Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Holmes (or
“Miss Kitty” as she was familiarly
called) R. J. Powell, Dr. J. E.
Cook undone or two others —all in
a moment, the picture that hangs
on memory’s walls was brought to
mental view, and a rush of sad
ness inexpressible came over me,
for 0, pathetic to state’! only two
of that happy party that looked
out with such joyous anticipation
upon the scene .before us, remains
on earth today, the others have one
by one dropped out of my life and
crossed with “the boatman pale”
into that country, “from whence
no traveller ever returns.” All!
how could we bear the pathos and
tragedy of life if it were not for
our faith in God, this confidence
in “our Fathers” wisdom and care,
which enables us to perform hero
ically the duties that still con
front us, cheered and comforted
with that Hope which illumines
the darkest hour!
There has always been a fascina
tion to me, associated with life
a New York Hat, not dreaming
that I would one day, from an
actual experience realize what it
is. “The Yankees” certainly un
derstand the art of utilizing space,
and these apartment houses are
model of comfort and convenience ;
“necessity quickens invention”
we know and when every foot of
ground means so much gold, they
have to get their wits together to
get as much as possible out of
space, hence, they go as far down,
and as far up as they dare. It is
as good asplaying at “house-keep
ing,” in one of these charming
flats.
The seventeenth annual Horse
Show opened at Madison Square
Garden on Nov. 18th. this event
marks the beginning of the season
and “the Smart Set” were there
remarkable for destination and
the elegance of gowns, hats and
jewels. The great Garden was
resplendent, every box had its
company, notably the Astors, Van
derbilts, Goulds, etc.
Over two thousand horses were
entered, the pick of the horse
flesh of the land. The automo
bile gives speed and sport, but it
will never displace the horse. From
! the number of fine specimens of
horse-flesh entered, and the enthu
siasm manifested the horse-less
age will never come.
The subway with all its difficul
ties and marvelous engineering is
progressing rapidly' The thous
ands who daily traverse these
crowded thorough fares can have
little, or no idea of the magnitude
jof the work, for a mile in many
! sections there is scarely a foot to
i be removed which does not require
blasting; imagine the traffic which
| pours across the streets day and
night not being impeded for an
hour! As the excavation proceeds
; it is of course necessary to support.

the tremendous weight above. At
present, this busy thoroughfare
with its roaring traffic is balanced
upon wooden beams. There is a
space of about twenty feet, be
tween the roof of the sub-way and
the street surface which is left un
disturbed ; this section contains
all the pipes and wires of this
mighty city; these will remain
undisturbed throughout the entire
construction, no matter liow heavy
may be the blasting beneath some
of the busiest streets in the world
its complicated piping will not be
disturbed.
The heaviest fall of snow in two
years fell in February. To remove
the snow of this storm cost the
city ssoo,ooo. The great city with
its mantle of white was bewitch-
Ingly beautiful, the sleighing,
skating, the river with its floating
blocks of ice, were all scenes of in
terest to me.
The first New Year of the twen
tieth century was welcomed with
both frolic and prayer; at mid
night came the din of horns, the
shrieking of whistles, the clanging
gongs, the plucky little tugs
shrieked in the rivers, the huge
ocean steamers lying at the piers
rolled out a chorus —above them
all the solemn chimes from church
steeples. Old Trinity chimed
over her ancient dead, Grace
church caught up the refrain, then
from spire to spire through out
the city until the ears became con
fused by the sound.
These are some of the songs
sung by Trinity’s chimes—“ Eve
ning Beils,” “Blue Bells of Scot
land,” “My Fatherland,” “Auld
Lang Syne” and “Home Sweet
Home.”
The death of McKinley made a
profound impression upon the city,
a deep undertone of sadness was
heard above all other tones. The
buildings magnificently draped in
white, black and purple, flags at
half mast from both public and
private houses, impressive memo
rial services from all the churches.
Prince Henry’s visit caused a
considerable ripple, and New York
threw her gates wide open and
made the royal visitor quite at
home. I saw his beautiful yacht,
all in white and gold, it was in
deed a thing of beauty.
Two of New York’s leading princ-
Barnum's
Monkeys
“All well—all happy—lots
of fun**. That is the regular
report from the monkey cage
of Barnum’s Circus ever since
the keepers began dosing the
monkeys with Scott’s Emul
sion. Consumption was carry
ing off two thirds of them
every year and the circus had
to buy new ones.
One day a keeper accident
ally broke a bottle of Scott’s
Emulsion near the monkey
cage and the monkeys eagerly
lapped it up from the floor.
This suggested the idea that it
might do them good. .Since
then the monkeys have received
regular doses and the keepers
report very few deaths from
consumption. Of course it’s
cheaper to buy Scott’s Emul
sion than new monkeys—and
that suits the circus men.
Consumption in monkeys
and in man is the same disease.
If you have it or are threaten
'ed with it can you

Emulsion and- is on the

I have reserved for the last, one
place that has peculiar charm for
me. Juliet moy ask, “what is in
a name,” and Romeo may say,
“nothing,” but 1 reply, there is
much indeed in a name, if
i the name is a rich legacy handed
down from years filled with glory
I—“OldJohn StreetM. E. Church,”
the “Mother of American Metho
dism,” the foundation of the first
permanent M. E. Society in Amer
ica, reads like a nobler and diviner
story of “Aladdins Lamp,” its
light touching every hill top and
show line of the continent. There
is no other spot on the face of the
earth of such historic interest and
value to Methodists as “Old John
Street Church.” For nearly one
hundred and thirty years the gos
pel has been preached without a
break. Through this church was
established a “Book Room,” to
day, as a result of that action we
have the magnificent publishing
house, the “Methodist Book Con
cern.” It was my privilege and
pleasure to worship with this con
gregation the first Sabbath of the
New Year. My name was the
first entered in the visitors book
for the New Year. J met with a
cordial welcome here, and felt in
deed, that in religion “there is no
North, no South.” all one in
Christ. The sweet service enjoy
ed here was impressive indeed and
will remain always one of the
sweetest memories of my sojourn
at the North and while appreciat
ing and enjoying beyond words, iny
residence of seven months in this
magnificent city, it was with joy
unbounded that this “Georgia
Cracker” who glories in the name,
turned her face to dear old “Dixie”
and Barnesville and the dear
friends, and neighbors, who are
never “too busy” to show an inter
est in you, and whose warm glowing
southern hearts give you such a
royal welcome. New York has
reasons to be proud of her rank as
second largest city in the world,
and we as a nation share to a cer
tain extent in this pride, but
“Our country” is so vast that the
people of the different sections are
as unlike almost as if they repre
sented different nationalities. 1
willingly accord all due honor to
the North, but the “Sunny South”
comes in for her full share. Aside
from their enormous wealth and
the time thoy have had to become
great, we by no means suffer by
comparison. I will be honest and
generous to say, both can learn
the one from the other, both have
advantages peculiarly their own,
Politically, the “bloody chasm”
no longer exists, peace and pros
perity is blessing the land, “unit
ed we stand,” and proudly we look
up and point to America’s flag
floating o’er the “land of the free
and home of the brave.”

BETTER THAN PILES.
The question Ims been asked, “in
what way are Chamber] nil’s .Stomach
A Liver Tablets superior to pills? Our
answer is: They are easier and more
pleasant to take, more mild and gentle
in effect and more reliable as they can
always be dependend upon. Then they
cleanse and invigorate the stomach
and leave the bowels in a natural con
dition, while pills are more harsh in
effect and their use is often followed
by constipation. For sale by

Covington Hank Declares Dividend.
The following special appeared
in the Atlanta Journal one day
last week:
Yesterday at the first annual
meeting of the directors of the
Bank of Covington a dividend of
8 per cent was declared and fl per
cent additional was put aside as
undivided profit. Mr. L. O. Ben
ton was re-elected president; Dr.
N. Z. Anderson, vice president,
and Mr. C. S. Thompson, cashier.
The directors expressed themselves
as being well pleased with the
work of Mr. Thompson, and voted
him an increase in salary.”
Mr. Benton is the president of
the Bank of Barnesville and is a
splendid man for the head of such
an institution.

pitiable suffering, and marking its little body with offen
sive sores and eruptions, catarrh of the nose and throat, weak eyes, glandular
swellings, brittle bones, white swelling and deformity.
How can parents look upon such little sufferers and not reproach j
themselves for bringing so much misery into the world? If you have
any disease lurking in your system, how can you expect well developed
healthy children? Cleanse your own blood and build up your health, and
you have not only enlarged your capacity for the enjoyment of the pleasures
of life, but have discharged a duty all parents owe to posterity, and made
mankind healthier and happier.
There is no remedy that so surely reaches deep-seated, stubborn blood
SS troubles as S. S. S. It searches out even hereditary I
poisons, and removes every taint from the blood,
and builds up the general health. If weaklings
are growing up around you, right the wrong by
putting them on a course of S. S. S. at once. It is j
purely vegetable medicine, harmless in its effects, and can be taken
by both old and young without fear of any bad results. •

The Telegram a Fake.
The recent statement tha a tel
egram had been sent from a Zeb
ulon Guerry club to Col. Guerry,
urging him to retire from the gu
bernatorial race, is now pronoun
ced a fake, as the following affida
vit will show:
Georgia—Houston County.
In person came E. L. Bryan,
who, on oath says, that he was in
Zebulon, Ga., on Saturday, April
sth, on professional business.
That soon after he reached Zebu
lon he was standing at Head’s
drug store in conversation with
several gentlemen, among whom
was Sidney Green, editor of the
Pike County .Journal, when the
subject of the telegram sent from
Zebulon on or about April Ist to
Hon. Dupont Guerry, signed by
the Guerry Club of Zebulon, and
published in the Macon Telegraph
April 2nd., advising Hon. Dupont
Guerry to retire from the race for
governor before embarrassing
friends further, \vas brought up,
and that Sidney Green stated in
deponents presence that he sent
the telegram with the concurrence
and approval of several other gen
tlemen, all of whom are avowed
friends of Mr. Terrell. Deponent
further swears that he made dili
gent inquiry concerning this mat
ter and all the information that
he could get confirmed Green’s
statement. Green also told depo
nent that he was the correspond
ent of the Macon Telegraph who
wired that paper at its request
confirming the telegram and state
ment contained therein. Depo
nent further swears that he made
diligent inquiry and his informa
tion derived from Terrell and
Guerry men was that there is not
and never was a Guerry club in
Zebulon.
