No matter how barren the tree

Because there is life at the

Strength or n Grizzly.
A hunter tells some wonderful sto
ries about the strength of grizzly bears,
says the Youth’s Companion. He
saw one that had had one of its fore
paws shot useless, use the other to
draw its weight of 1,000 pounds up a
precipice, where it seemed as if the
fact were impossible. He tells also
of cows knocked over by a single blow
from thejorepaw oi a bear; but per
haps his most surprising story is of an
occurrence that he witnessed three
Summers ago. He says:
“I spent the season in the Coast
mountains near Hudson Bay, and one
moonlight night I saw a big grizzly
bear in the act of carrying a dead
cow home to her cubs.
“I had a position on the mountain
side, from which I could see every
movement of the bear in the sparsely
settled timbered valley below. She
carried the cow in her forepaws for
at least three miles, across jagged
rocks to feet high, over fallen logs,
around the rocky mountainside,where
even a j ackass could not get a foot
hold, to a narrow' trail up the steep
mountain. “She never stopped to
rest a moment, but went straight on.
I followed her, and about half a mile
from her lair laid her low. The cow
Weighed at least 1200 pounds, and the
bear about 450.”

state its value. E. H. Dorsey, Athens,

The Inevitable Solution.
The. Hon. John Temple Graves,
who has been lecturing in the north
and west on the subject of the “negro
problem” in this country, has contri
buted a strong article to the Atlanta
Constitution, in which he says that
the separation ot the two races is
“the logical, the inevitable, the only
solution of this great problem, and
adds:
“The politicians and the apathy
behind them may postpone the solu
tion for a while longer, but sooner or
later the wisdom of the fathers and
the purpose of the Almighty will pre
vail.
“The negro tronts a hopeless and
unequal competition with the des
tiny of the dominant and all-conquer
ing race of history.
“The last hope ot the negro is sep
aration.
“The last best hope of the white
man for purity and just : ce and law
and civilization and for material de
velopment is in separation from the
race which tempts him to violate
them all.
“It is high time for both races to
to realize this stern, inexorable fact,
and set themselves peaceably and
humanely to the inevitable destiny of
division.”
The people of the south, white and
black, he adds, “would be amazed to
know the magnitude of the indorse
ment and approval which meets the
proposition everywhere. "The Charles
ton News and Courier believes with
Mr. Graves that separation is as
inevitable as j it is desirable in the
best interests of both races. Its ac
ceptance and accomplishment is only
a question of time. Ihe Macon
Telegraph comments thus upon the
matter:
“After all there are a great many
people left who know the truth when
they see it.

Old Law Holds Good.
We learned the other day of a man
who boasted that he had taken a bot
tle of wine every day for fifty years
and had not been injured by it. But
of his twelve children six died in in
fancy, one was idiotic, one became in
sane and the other four grew up to be
nervous invalids.
Men find it impossible to get away
from the old law laid dov/n thousands
of years ago that “the sins of the fath
ers shall be visited upon the children,”
It is a terrible thing for fathers to
commit sins for which their children
will have to pay the penalty, but men
are doing so on every hand.
FOR LA GRIPPE.
Thomas Whitfield & Cos., 240 Wabash
ave., coiner Jackson st., one of Chicago’s
oldest and most prominent druggists, re
commend Chamberlains Cough Remedy
for la grippe, as it not only gives a
prompt and complete relief, but also
counteracts any tendency of la grippe to
result in pneumonia. For sale by J. it.

It really begins to look as if thee

While scientific minds are discussing
the antitoxin serum treatment of dis
ease as if it were anew thing, the
people of ancient Burma are calling
attention to the fact that for centuries
the material they have used in the
common custom of tattooing has been
an efficient antitoxin for snake bites,
says Leslie's Weekly! The tattooed
Burmese regard the bites of poison
ous snakes as harmless. This, at
least is the statement of a gentleman
from Burma, who brings testimony to
bear in corroboration of his singular
statement.
WHY COUGH
Why cough and risk consumption,
when the celebrated Dr. John W.
Bull’s Cough Syrup will cure yon at
once? It never fails to cure throat and
lung troubles. For bronchitis, sore
throat and hoarseness it is invaluable.

An English journal thus comments
on the injurious effects of anger: “An
ger serves the unhappy mortal who
indulges in it much the same as in
toxicants constantly taken do the
inebriate. It grows into a sort o
disease which has various and terrible
results. Sir Richard Quain said not
long ago: ‘He is a man very rich in
deed in physical power who can afford
to be angry.’ This is true. Every
time a man becomes white or red
with anger he is in danger of his life.
The heart and brain are the organs
mostly affected when fits of passion
are indulged in. Not only does anger
cause partial paralysis of the small
blood vessels, but the heart’s action
becomes intermittent—that is, every
now and then it drops a beat—much
the same thing as is experienced by
excessive smokers.”

“Chief,” says: “We won't keep
house without Dr. King's New Dis
covery tor Consumption, Coughs and
Colds. Experimented with many
others, but never got the true remedy
until we used Dr. King's New Discov
ery. No other remedy can take its
place in our home, as in it we have a
certain and sure cure for Coughs,
Colds, Whooping Cough, etc."’ It is
idle to experiment with other reme
dies, even if they are urged on you as
just as good as Dr. King's New' Dis
covery. They are not as good, be
cause this remedy has a record of cure
and besides is guaranteed. It never
fails to satisfy. Tria' bottles free at

There is some chance that an aqua
rium for fresh water fish may be
started in London. The Crystal Pal
ace Company is repairing its aqua

thousand trout eggs have .already
been hatched and a beginning is
made. The company cannot be loser
if it rear and sell the fish,'for it can
