The subject of this notice was

ed religion several years ago and
united with the Methodist church
and was an exemplary member
until the day of her demise.
Deat h had no terrors for her as she
was in possession of the religion of
Christ which entirely disarmed
death of its sting. She has ex
changed a world of sorrow and
trouble for one of eternal bliss.

his sympathies to the bereaved;

Georgia’s Orphans Homes.
Bethesda Orphanage, near Sav
annah, is more than 160 years old,
having been founded by Rev.
George Whitfield, the companion
of the Wesleys. It has had a
great history, furnishing a govern
or, and sheltering the noble mother
of Bill Arp.
The care of the orphans in
Georgia beautifully illustrates the
motto on the early colonial seal,
“non sihi”, sed alus,” —not for
ourselves, hut for others. This
brotherly spirit is such that at
Decatur, Atlanta, Hapeville,
Washington, Macon or Augus
ta every orphm can find a
sweet home. Orphan means abso
lute moral or physical destitution,
whether the parents are dead or
not.
A poor cripple found her way to
the Decatur home recently, and
they are already at work straight,-
ening her limbs and eyes. She
has been almost totally paralized
from her waist to her feet for two
years, unable either to walk, stand
or move about, and* both her par
ents an'(haul. They will he able
Ito put her on crutches after the
National Surgical Institute have
! generously st raightoned her limbs.
There are eight of these cripples
there.
The orphans, waifs, babies and
morally destitute children in these
I institutions beg their friends to
, liberally support these noble
; home* which are dependent on
these voluntary gifts. Everyone
lean give the value of one days
work. Orphans Home Work-Day
| will lie observed Sat urday Sep.27.
NEED MORE HELP.
Often the over-taxed organs of diges
tion cry out for help by dyspepsia ,
pains, nausea, dizziness, headaches,
fivcrcomplaints, bowel disorders. Such
trouble call forpronint use of Dr. King’s
New Life Pills. They are gentle,
thorough and guaranteed to cure. 25c

The new life that seems to to be
infused in the University of
Georgia is noticed particularly
in the announcement of the
School of Agriculture of that in
stitution. Notice is given that in
addition to the regular four years
! course, a short winter course of
two months is held each year, in
tended primarily forstudents who
! cannot leave their farms for a
longer period of time: and begin
:mg with next session an entirely
new one year course will bo offer
ed in this school. This course
would seem to he admirably adapt
ed to meet the wants of young
men in every class. In line with
tins work it is noticed also that
excellent hoard is provided in the
hoarding hall of the University
at a etist of SB.OO. Board of as
high quality is not provided, we
believe, at any institution at so
low a figure. Every etVort seems
to be made by the administration
to make the cost of living as lit
tle ns possible; and, as no tuition
fees are charged, the cost of a
course at the state University is
now as cheap as could reasanably
, be expected.

MOUNTAIN CLIMBERS’ CLUBS.
Boston has a mountain climbing
club, the Appalachian, winch num-
I bers about 1,200 members. This
club exists not only for the love of
climbing and adventure, although
•its members have made many nota
ble climbs, but it is concerned with
Other and more serious aims. In
the construction of roads and trails
and other work of development of
mountain playgrounds it has taken
a leading part, it has mapped un
known mountain regions. In the
movement for the preservation ol
our forests, says Everybody s Maga
zine, it has aided greatly, and in
the development of art in landscape
photography it has had great influ
ence.
In Denver is the Rocky Mountain
club, in San Francisco the Sierra
club, of which John Muir, the great
nature lover, is the president, and
in the northwest are the Mazamas,
with headquarters at Portland. This
club has a very select membership,
since it enforces the condition that
a candidate shall have climbed a
snow clad mountain at least 10,000
feet in height.
A Snubbed Cub Reporter.
Professor Richard Lynch Gar
ner’s return from Africa, where he
has been for the third time to study
the language and habits of the mon
key tribes, calls to mind a little in
cident in which he unknowingly fig
ured. The professor had just re
turned from a previous trip and
upon reaching the "United States
went at once to Chicago, where he
is connected with the Chicago uni
versity. The daily papers were anx
ious to get interviews with him in
regard to his study of the language
of monkeys. The city editor of the
Chicago News sent a young reporter
on the assignment and had forgot
ten about him in the work of the
day when the enthusiastic young
man rushed into the office and ex
claimed :
“Well, I’ve seen Garner, the man
who says he can understand mon
keys.”
* “Then,” replied the editor, “I
suppose you had no difficulty in
making yourself understood.”
Up Against It.
Stanley, the ollice boy, made his
appearance in the art department
the other day wearing a Christian
Endeavor button in the lapel of his
coat.
“I’m glad to see you have decided
to lend a moral and upright life in
the future,” remarked the cartoon
ist, fixing his gaze on the emblem.
“Aw, hat ’em out!” replied Stan
ley. “Dis is collateral fer a loan.
See? An* I’in up against it at dat.
1 lends a feller 80 cents, an’ I says,
‘Gimme somethin’ fer security.’
Well, he flashes dis here pin on me,
an’, like an easy mark, 1 takes it.
Dere ain’t no moral an’ upright life
about dis here deal.”
“Well, the button is worth 80
cents, isn’t it?” asked the cartoon
ist.
“Yaw,” replied Stanley in dis
gust. “1 t’ought it was when I took
it, hut I found out since youse kin
buy ’em fer a quarter.” —Philadel-
phia Record.
Her Shrimp Salad.
Avery young and very inexperi
enced matron, a well known society
woman of New York, recently un
dertook to assume the entire man
agement, even to the smallest de
tail, of her household affairs, and
her directions to the servants are
conveyed to them in writing. A
few days ago, wishing to have some
dainty dish for luncheon, she
thought a nice shrimp salad would
be the thing and accordingly wrote
her instructions to the cook to pre
pare the salad and for the purpose
to order from the marketman “one
small shrimp.” The story leaked
out, and it will he many days before
she will be able to look into the
eyes of any of her friends without
seeing the small shrimp twinkling
therein.—New York Times.
A Bluff Sign.
“Watchman In This Building.”
This is the now sign that is ap
pearing on uptown apartment
houses in New York as a warning
to tramps, beggars and peddlers.
“It's a great scheme,” said a real
estate man. “Warnings to keep out
are of no value, and watchmen are
expensive, but the signs cost only a
trifle, and they work pretty well,
just as ‘Beware of the Dog’ signs in
the country.
“This • bluff is better than a
watchman, because you don’t have
to keep an eye on it, and you do
have to keep both eyes on the aver
age watchman.” —New York Times.
Witty Zangwill.
Israel Zangwill has been one of
the sprightliest witnesses in the
Truth libel case in London. Asked
whether his paper, Ariel, was still
in existence, he replied: ‘‘No. It
was too good to live. 1 can’t, how
ever, say that it is dead, for its jokes
still appear.”
SHORT NOTICE.
Anthony Brady, the capitalist, a
personage now of unusual interest
to Utica from the fact that he lias
been instrumental in consolidating
the two lighting companies, has
many men in his service. One of
them is a high priced gas expert, a
voung man whom he intrusts with
nianv important missions. Once
Mr. Brady left instructions for this
young man to go to Japan on a cer
tain mission.
“And,” concluded Mr. Brady, “as
it will be a long and hard trip, have
him take his wife with him.”
After the expert had received his
instructions he sought out Mr. Bra
dy.
“I understand,” he said, “I am to
go to Japan.”
“Yes.”
“And take mv wife with me?”
I “Yes.”
“Well, this is pretty short notice
to get ready to take a wife on such
a trip,” said the young man.
“Why?” asked Mr. Brady.
“Because,” replied the employee,
“I haven’t any wife.”
So Mr. Brady’s agent went to Ja
pan alone. —Utica Observer.
Freak Whiskers.
Judson Clayton, proprietor of the
Lady Washington inn at Hunting
ton Valley, Pa., has a small marble
statue of General George Washing
ton on the lawn adjoining his house
that requires constant barbering to
keep it from raising a beard and
mustache. Periodically a growth
of moss makes its appearance on the
upper lip, chin and cheeks of the
stone figure, and if left untouched
for any length of time it develops
into a close cropped beard and mus
tache, giving to the image of the
Father of His Country an extremely
dandified appearance. If the moss
is not interfered with, it will grow
: to a point resembling the approved
cut that barbers give to the beards
of men of fashion. Every few
months the action of the weather
causes the face of the marble statue
to become coated with the velvety
moss, and a shave is in order. The
freak whiskers have made the stat
ue quite a curiosity in the vicinity.
Cannibal Plants.
Some interesting particulars ap
pear in Chambers’ Journal concern
ing cannibal plants and flowers and
especially the species recently dis
covered by Dunstan on the shores
of Lake Nicaragua. As this nat
uralist was walking with his dog
he was attracted by its cries of pain
and terror and, hastening to the
rescue, found the animal held bv
three black sticky bands, which had
chafed the skin to bleeding. These
bands were the brandies of a newly
found carnivorous plant, which has
been named by Dunstan the land
octopus. The branches are de
scribed as being flexible, polished
black, without leaves, secreting a
viscid fluid and furnished with a
great number of suckers by which
they attach themselves to their vic
tims. This uncanny product of the
vegetable kingdom is known to the
natives as “the devil’s noose.”
A Cinematograph Puzzle.
In cinematograph pictures of rac
ing motor cars the wheels at cer
tain points have been shown turn
ing backward. To explain this sin
gular effect M. Lumiere states that
when anew film is exposed at the
moment when each spoke in turn
reaches a given point the wheel will
appear stationary, the successive
views being exactly alike. But if
the films are traveling quicker than
the spokes each spoke is photo
graphed before it reaches the posi
tion of exposure of the spoke in
front of it, giving the wheel the ap
pearance of revolving backward.
A Magnetic Cannon.
The electrical magnetic cannon
invented by a Norwegian professor
has recently been given severe tests
at Christiania. The gun works mag
netically, the shell being drawn out
of the bore and not impelled, as by
gunpowder. The professor claims
that by the use of magnetism as mo
tive power a thousand pound shell
can be given greater range than by
any of the established methods.
The firing of the gun causes neither
smoke nor sound.—Boston Journal.
A Pingpong Blunder.
“I guess tha f New York man who
dropped dead while playing ping
pong was a good deal xo blame him
self)’
“What makes you think so?”
“Why, ns near as l can make out,
he was trying to return a ball by a
short arm quick counter with the
right forearm reversed for a back
ward back handed stroke. Wouldn’t
that jar your arteries?’’—Cleveland
Plain Dealer.
Fatted Goose Livers.
Consul Tourgee protests from
Bordeaux against calling the en
larged goose liver from which foie
do gras is made “diseased.” A fatted
goose liver, he says, is no more dis
eased than the meat of an overfed
hog.
