THE BEST REMEDY FOR CROUP.
[From the Atehirmon, Kan , Daily Globe.]
This is the season when the woman
who knows the best remedies for croup
is in demand in every neighborhood.
One of the most terrible things in the
world is to be awakened in the middle
1 of the night by a whoop from one of the
children. The croup remedy is almost
as sure to be lost, in case of croup, as
a revolver is sure to be lost in case of
burglars. There used to be an old fash
ioned remedy for croup, known as hive
syrup and tolu, but some modern
motheas say that Chamberlin’s Cough
Remedy is better, and does not cost so
much. It causes the patient to
“through up the phlegm” quicker, and
gives relif in a shorter time. Give this
remedy as soon as the croupy cough ap
pears, and it will prevent the attack.
I It never fails and is pleasant and safe
|to take. For sale by J. H. Blackburn.
THE BARNESVILLRNEWS-GAZETTE, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1902.
In Memory of Mrs. Lucy Smith.
We feel like offering a small
tribute in behalf of our precious
mother, who passed away just a
few weeks ago. She was the joy
and pride of our hearts and the
sunshine of our home. Oh ! she
was well worthy, indeed! of that
golden crown which now encircles
her radiant brow, for no stain was
ever discovered on her soul escut
cheon, which was whiter than any
lily that ever kept time to the
water’s murmer and purer than
any pearl that ever decked the
throat of royalty. She aspired to
things of a higher and holier na
ture ; for a life that no thought of
mammon enters and no earth so 1
stains; a life that is rewarded in
Heaven with rest and happiness;
for she was ever ready and will
ing to sacrillce every thought of
self, every worldly motive and
aim for the sake of her loved ones
and did it in the name of the
blessed Savior who has said; “In
as much as ye did it unto one of
the least of these, ye did it unto
me.,’ Oh 1 what a victory! It is
sorrow for ourselves and yet what
unspeakable comfort with the
benediction of All Mighty God;
the assurance of his word
and the comfort of his
spirit, our souls penetrated with
his truth and we are strong in the
faith, with confidence and trust
in God. Shall we sorrow as those
that have no hope? Oh! she was
so pleasant, meek and patient in
her sufferings. Although she
couldn’t speak plain enough to be
understood during her last hours,
yet we feel assured that dear
mama is just across the river on
the other shore, watching and
waiting to welcome her loved ones
home, for as her friends and rela
tives stood by her bedside telling
her of the beautiful home where
she was going, we could see a heav
enly smile come over her face and
with her face brightened up with
joy she breathed her last.
Ah well, some sweet hope for
us all lies deeply buried from hu
man eyes, and in the hereafter
angels may roll the Stone from
the Sepulchre. Daughters.

Pretty home Wedding.
One of the prettiest weddings of
the season was that of Miss Jessie
Dupree to Mr. Holmes Sordan,
which occurred at the home of the
bride’s parents in Zebulon, Wed
nesday eveing at 8 o’clock. The
house was beautifully and taste
fully decorated with white chrys
anthemums intermingled with
green leaves and vines that were
festooned over pictures, windows
and doors. To the beautiful
strains of Mendelshon’s grand
wedding march the happy
couple entered the parlor and stood
in a large bay window banked with
green beneath a lovely wedding
bell made of white chrysanthe
mums and green leaves equisitely
blended. The soft strains of
the march were continued during
the long, impressive service, con
ducted by Rev. J. W. Beck. Mrs.
Jordan graduated from Cox Col
ledge several years ago with hon
ors, since that time she has been
one of the most successful young
teachers of the state. Mr Jordan
is one of the most prosperous
young men of this section
o f the co u u ty. Amid
showers of congratulations and
rice the happy young couple left
at once for Molena, their future
home. Both these yqpng people
are well known to the people of
Barnesville, and thev, too, join
heartily in extending congratula
tions.

In an article of reminiscences
Mai y Staurt Boyd says that the
late Bret Harte never obtruded
his personality. He also had a
dread of people who regarded him
for his workbnly, not for himself.
“Why didn’t you tell me it was
Bret Harte who sat, next to me at
dinner last night?” wailed one of
society’s smartest young matrons,
in a note to her hostess, the morn
ing after a large dinner party.
“I have always longed to meet
him, and I would have been so
different had J only known who
my neighbor was.”
“Now, why can’t a woman real
ize that this sort of thing is in
sulting?” queried the author, to
whom the hostess had forwarded
her friend’s letter.
“If Mrs. talked with me,
and found me uninteresting as a
man, how could she expect to find
me interesting because I was an
author?”

The liniment bottle and flannel strip are f r'L
familiar objects in nearly every household. •*
They are the weapons that have been used for
generations to fight old Rheumatism, and are \
about as effective in the battle with this giant . J
disease as the blunderbuss of our forefathers > *
would be in modern warfare. ' Trp'u
Rheumatism is caused by an acid, sour
condition of the blood. It is filled with acrid, irritating matter that settles
in the joints, muscles and nerves, and liniments and oils nor nothing
else applied externally can dislodge these gritty, corroding particles. They
were deposited there by the blood andean be reached only through the blood.
Rubbing with liniments sometimes relieve temporarily the aches and
pains, but these are only symptoms which are liable to return with every
change of the weather ; the real disease lies deeper, the blood and system
are infected. Rheumatism cannot be radically and permanently cured
until the blood has been purified, and no remedy does this so thoroughly
and promptly as S. S. S. It neutralizes the acids and sends a stream
— —of rich, strong blood to the affected parts, which
ffN dissolves and washes out all foreign materials, and the
sufferer obtains happy relief from the torturing pains.
KOI kj) S. S. S. contains no potash or other mineral, but
" ’ is a perfect vegetable blood purifier i and most
exhilarating tonic. Our physicians will advise, without charge, all who
write about their case, and we will send free our special book on Rheumatism
and its treatment. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., Atlanta, 6a.
An honest Charwoman.
A novel decision was rendered
at the Treasury Department grow
ing out of the act of an honest
charwoman who found a package
of money in the cash-room while
cleaning up the office after the
clerks had gone for the day. It
was clearly an oversight on the
part of somebody connected with
this branch of the service, but the
poorwoman, who only received
S2O a month, did her duty and re
turned the package of money,
which she could easily have taken
and nobody would have been any
wiser. This package was made
up of SIOO notes, and the contents
would have made the charwoman
comfortable for the remainder of
her life. But she knew the money
did not belong to her. and that
its loss would entail a great deal
of trouble, and she promptly turn
ed it over to the captain of the
watch, who saw that it reached
the United States Treasury. Had
this money been taken away from
the department the loss would
have fallen upon Treasurer Mor
gan, who is responsible for every
cent entrusted to his care.
When this circumstance was re
ported to Assistant Secretary
Vanderlip he resolved, Mikado
like, to make the punishment fit
the crime, and this caused a nov
el decision to be made. This was
to the effect that the clerk who
had been guilty of dereliction of
duty should write a letter of
thanks to the charwoman and
agree to turn over to her one
month’s salary as a reward for
her trustworthiness and honesty.!
It was also decided to hold the
chief of the division responsible
with the clerk, and he is to give
up one-third of a month’s salary j
to the charwoman, who has made
such an enviable reputation by|
discovering and returning to
Uncle Sam the package of money i
mislaid by one of his trusted em
ployees. —Chicago Tribune.
