Don’t forget the old man
with the fkJi on his back.
For nearly thirty years he
has been traveling around the
world, and is still traveling,
bringing health and comfort
wherever he goes.
To the consumptive he
brings the strength and flesh
lie so much needs.
To all weak and sickly
children he gives rich and
strengthening food.
To thin and pale persons
he gives new firm flesh and
rich red blood.
Children who first saw the
old man with the fish are now
grown up and have children
of their own.
He stands for Scott’s Emul
sion of pure cod liver oil —a
delightful food and a natural
tonic for children, for old folks
and for all who need flesh and
strength.

THE BARNESVILLENEWS-GAZBTTE, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1903.
Treat the South Fairly.
It would seem only necessary
to consider this whole matter of
the appointment of colored men
and women, to public offices,
north or south, from a calm, dis
passionate, and so far as possible
unprejudiced point of view, to
avoid all controversy which has
been lately stirred up over this
subject. Every intelligent per
son in this country must under
stand by this time exactly how
the southern people feel about
such appointments, and what the
general sentiment is in that part
of the Union in regard to appear
ance of members of the colored
race in any prominent political
way. Even those who regard the
sentiment as wrong must admit
that its existence is in no way re
markable or surprising. That it
does exist we all know, and we
know also that this feeling is
deep, fixed and apparently ine
radicable. We also know and will
admit, if we are frank about it,
that much the same feeling exists
in the north. In theory, we of
the north regard the negro as en
titled to equal rights, privileges
and recognitions in politics and
business with ourselves. But as
a matter of fact we believe
nothing of the kind. Our practi
ces here, at least, are almost an
antipodal distance from our theo
ries. There are, in truth, few
neighborhoods in the north where
a colored man in any conspicious
official position would be much
more welcome than he is in the
south. Especially would this be
true in a small postoffice, the
worst of all possible places to put
a person who, for any reason, is
socially obnoxious.
BETTER THAN GOLD.
“I was troubled for several years
with chronic indigestion and nervous
debility,” writes F. J. Green, of Lan
caster, N. H. “No remedy helped lAe
until I began using Electric Bitters,
which did me more good than all the
other medicines I ever used. They
have also kept my wife in excellent
health for years. She says Electric
Bitters are just splendid for Female
Troubles ; that they are a grand tonic
and invigorator for weak, run down
women. No other medicine can take
its place in our family.” Try them.

The Cow or the Bike.
An Irish farmer went into an
ironmonger’s shop to buy a scy
the, says Tit-Bits. After serving
him the shopman asked him if he
would buy a bicycle.
“What is that? queried the
Irishman”.
“It’s a machine to ride about
the town on.”
“And, shure, what might the
price of it be?”
“Fifteen pounds.”
“I’d rather see fifteen pounds
in a cow.”
“But what a fool you would
look riding around the town on
the hack of a cow 1”
“Shure, now,” replied the Irish
man, “not half such a fool as I’d
look trying to milk a bicycle!”

“It has been five years since I was cured of
heart trouble by your Heart Cure and Nerv
ine. and I am just as sound as a dollar in
that organ today. For several years I had
been suffering with my heart. Breathing
had become short and difficult at times
short, sharp pains about the heart, sometimes
accompanied with fluttering would make
me feel l.nnt and languid. The least excite
ment or mental worry would almost unnerve
me. 1 felt that the trouble was growing
worse all the time, and after trying many
remedies prescribed by physicians without
obtaining relief, 1 was induced to give your
remedies a trial. I was relieved the second
day, and after taking three or four bottles all
symptoms were removed and have never
shewed signs of returning.”—Rxv. Oko. W.
Kiracotk, Chmcoteague, Va.
There are many symptoms of heart disease,
which so closely resemble those of more com
mon nervous disorders as to frequently mis
lead the attending physician. Often in cases
of heart trouble the stomach, kidneys, liver or
lungs become affected. Again the symptoms
raav be those of weakened nerves, as tired
feeling, sleeplessness, timidity, the patient is
easily excitable and apt to worrv without
cause. If you have the least suspicion that
your heart is weak study your svmptoms and.
begin the use of Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure, the
great heart and blood tonic, without a day's
delay.

• ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
Bome Suggestions as to the Proper
Care of Lamps.
A lady who believes in having her
“light to shine” 6ays in a farm pa
per:
Asa general thing, as much wit
goes to the care of lamps as to the
boiling of eggs. In the first place,
they should receive due attention
every day. Leave their large silk
or paper shades in the parlor or liv
ing room except when it is necessary
to take them out of doors to use a
fine hairbrush for cleaning the dust
from their folds or fiutings. Carry
the lamps to the kitchen and set
them down upon double folded
newspapers. If they have porcelain
shades, wipe these as you take them
off and set aside with the chimneys.
Should they need washing put them
into a basin of hot water which you
have softened with a little ammonia
or borax. Don’t use soap, as it is
apt to make them cloudy. This
done, turn up the wicks of the lamps
and with a bit of stick or a match
scrape off the charred edges. Do
not cut them unless the wick is very
uneven. Remove the rims that sur
round the burners and wipe them
off with the old flannel or soft cloth
you reserve for your lamps.
Now fill the lamps, and do it care
fully to avoid an overflow. The best
plan is to keep a small funnel with
the oil can and, inserting the point
of the tube in the opening provided
for filling in the side of the lamp,
pour cautiously until the reservoir
is full. The lamps that are made
with reservoirs which fit into outer
jars are decidedly the easiest to fill.
Whatever kind you use, wipe the
outside of the reservoirs after you
have filled and closed them, that the
persistently percolating oil may have
no unnecessary encouragement to
exude. Be very sure no drops of oil
have trickled down upon the outside
of the lamps to make their way to
the bottom rim or feet and leave a
greasy place on the stand or shelf.
Give a final rub to the outside of
each lamp, replace the rim, chimney
and shade.
Sometimes it will he necessary to
give the lamp a thorough washing
in hot water and ammonia. Noth
ing but a free use of a powerful al
kali will remove the clinging grease.
When a lamp burner is clogged and
gives a poor light, boil it for an
hour in water with a lump of wash
ing soda or a little borax.
Cooking Squash.
Steamed squash will take about
three-quarters of an hour if piled in
a drainer so the steam can circulate
between the pieces and covered
tightly. Boiled squash requires one
half hour. Whether steamed or
boiled, the squash when' it is cooked
tender should be pressed through a
coarse sieve to remove the strings,
then seasoned while it is hot with
three-quarters of a teaspoonful of
salt, a scant saltspoont’ul of white
pepper and a tablespoonful of but
ter, well stirred and beaten in. It
is best to melt the butter in a nice
enameled saucepan, add the salt and
pepper to it, then stir in the squash
and beat it on the stove for three
or four minutes until it becomes
steaming hot. It may be kept hot
for ten or fifteen minutes if cov
ered and protected from scorching
on the back of the stove.
The Transformed Laundry Table.
The colonial laundry table, which
can be bought in many of the shops
for a trifle over $4, would fail to
recognize itself when transformed
by clever treatment into a highly
prized piece of decorative furniture.
The particular one in question is
stained to a ost satisfying shade
of green. The movable broad table
piece is turned backward and forms
the high back of this original wide
seat. There is a skillfully carved
Celtic' border surrounding this, and
the seat and sides of the bench part
are carved even more elaborately in
the same style. Even without the
two embossed leather pillows this
piece of furniture would cost close
to SIOO.
Creamed Calf’s Liver.
Into a pan put five tablespoonfuls
of butter. When it is melted, put
into it one pound of calf’s liver cut
fine, salt and pepper; brown careful
ly and cook for eighteen minutes.
Take up the liver and place it on a
hot platter. Add one slice of onion
to the gravy and let it cook one min
ute. Add one tablespoonful of flour
and cook, stirring until it begins to
froth. Draw the pan back and grad
ually add one pint of milk and cook
one minute, stirring all the time.
Put the liver in the pan with the
gravy and stew very slowly five min
utes longer.
Table Covers.
Cretonne table covers match the
coverings of bedroom furniture.
These are made in the daintiest of
ways, and only the best of French
cretonnes are used. A border of
heavy lace or a knotted fringe in
corresponding colors usually is add
ed as an edging around the cover.
Dyspeptics viPftj
are made every day by their own
Cure that case of
ypation and Indigestion ere it’s chronic. Try V
I AND TONIC PELLETS— a remedy that assists J
\ Nature and does not get in her way. Strong j
