IN MEMORIAL.
|
(By special request.)
Death has again invaded our
ranks here in Brunswick, Ga.
Mrs. H. W. Wise.
At the residence of her daugh
ter. Mrs. E. E. Wilcha, after a
year, medical science and loving
hands having done all that could
be done to stay the hand of the
Grim Monster, death claimed her.
At 4:30 p. m., Monday, Fob. 20,
at the time of her death, she was
63 years of age, and surrounded by
nearly all of her immediate fami
ly and a host of loving friends.
At her bedside were her daughters,
Mrs. A. M. Calder, Mrs. G. F. Bat
tle, Mrs. E. E. Wilcharr, Miss
Maggie Wise and two of her sons
in-law and son, Mr. Rufus. L.-
Wise. Another daughter, Mrs. J.
H. Hooker, of Edinfteld, Fla., was
not present on account of illness.
She leaves two sisters, Mrs. Sarah
Ohff and Mrs. Emma Jones, both
of Statesboro, to mourn her de
parture, besides a host of friends
to weep with those who weep. She
was a great sufferer, and her child
ren did all that Christian hearts
and tender hands could do to make
her comfortable. Deceased was a
faithful member of the Second
Advent Christian Church of this
city. Funeral services were con
ducted at 3 p. m. Tuesday in the
large new chapel, which was tilled
with interested friends. Services
were conducted by her pastor,
Elder P. H. Dowling, who paid
the last tribute of respect to the
noble Christian mother.

ANCIENT MEDICINE.
The Idiotic Nostrums In Which People
Once Believed.
If modern science can boast of
anything, it can of the way in whiefr
it lias rescued medicine from the j
realms of imagination, says the Lon- j
don Standard. The wonderful pie- j
6eriptious of the Magi, as narrated
by the Roman historian, Pliny, are
examples of what the earliest doe- j
tors were, while oven the “salves” of j
our own Elizabethans seem at lirst
sight not much of an improvement
upon those of the Chaldean M. D.’s.
Let us take a few examples of Ma
gian healing from a Latin author, of
which perhaps the most useful is the
following—one that in modern par
lance would run thus: A recipe to
make women disclose their secrets.
Take one hen and, having carefully
extracted her heart, place the same
on the mouth of a patient during
sleep. You will ascertain her exact
age the next morning. To do the
old Roman justice he stigmatizes
this statement as a “portentous lie.”
(No doubt lie had tried it.)
Others are quite as grotesque. Fe
verfew, when used medicinally, had
to be plucked by the left hand, after
the patient’s name had been spoken
over it, the herbalist taking good
care not to look behind him. A love
charm could be easily obtained from
a hyena caught when the moon was
in Gemini. Sporting prophets who
wish to excel in divination should
change their customary chop for a
few moles’ hearts. It is stipulated
that these be fresh. The Romans
themselves, although no mean sur
geons—they made use of the probe
and nippers and instruments for
trepanning —were not less given to
prodigies than the people whose ve
racity they doubted. They believed
that eating bare was a cure for in
somnia, and even the skeptic Pliny
imagined that there must be some
thing in the superstition that people
who had done so were good looking
for nine days afterward. A verita
ble nine days’ wonder! He recom
mended also, as a cure for quartan
fever, that the dust in which a hawk
had rolled should be put into a bag
and the latter tied around the neck
with a piece of red thread. Other
cures for this same were the longest
tooth of a black dog, in the same po
sition, and a wasp caught in the left
hand and then pressed against the
forehead.
Making a Name For Himself.
A New York business man says
that he once had in his employ as
office boy a lad named Magillicud
dy. Naturally enough, this young
ster received so many joking refer
ences about his name from liis fel
low employees that he became ex
tremely dissatisfied with it. So
when he applied for a place under
another employer in the building he
evidently decided to bestow a new
name upon himself. When the man
to whom he applied asked him his
name the boy replied:
“Robert Recapitulation.”
“That’s an odd name,” eaid the
man after having the lad repeat it
several times.
The boy looked surprised.
“Haven’t you heard.of General Re
capitulation?” asked he.
“No.”
“Why, his name is in all the re
ports in Mr. Blank’s office.” —Wo-
man’s Home Companion.
Bad For His Business.
Mick O’Flannigan of Liverpool is
an Irish gentleman who pursues the
humble but useful occupation of a
ragman, though at one time he
served her majesty in foreign parts
as a soldier of the line. Mick is a
great orator in his way, frequently
addressing local meetings, at which
he generally draws upon his mili
tary experience for appropriate il
lustrations.
On one occasion he was endeav
oring to prove that even a savage
state is better than the condition of
Ireland.
“Gintlemen,” he exclaimed, “I
saw little children out in Africa
there. They had no* clothes, it i 3
true. They were naked, but they
were free!”
“Bad place for a ragman, Mick!”
shouted a small boy at the rear, and :
the orator collapsed amid the laugh
ter of the audience. —London Tele

A poor Irishman one day went to
the office of an Irish bank and asked j
for change in gold for fourteen one |
pound Bank of Ireland notes. The
cashier at once replied that the Cav
an bank only cashed its own notes.
“Then would ye gie me Cavan
notes for these ?” asked the country- ;
man in his simple way.
“Certainly,” said the cashier, 1
handing the fourteen notes a3 de
sired.
The Irishman took the Cavan
notes, but immediately returned
them to the official, saying:
“Would ye gie me gold for these, '
sir?” And the cashier, caught in j
his own trap, was obliged to part
with the money.—London Answers, j
