THE TONSILS.
!t Is Wot Known What Purpose These
Structures Serve.
The tonsils are two collections of
gfaadi&e structures at the back part
of the mouth, one on each side, be¬
tween the pillars of the palate. It is
-not known what purpose they serve.
Some have supposed that they arrest
the germs of disease which may be in¬
flated er taken in with the food, but
they evidently eau catch very few of
the germs which rapidly pass them iu
the food or water or in the air which
is infaaied, and it is well they cannot,
for they are themselves very suscepti¬
ble to disease, as some sufferers know
t» their sorrow'. Others have thought
they serve an evil purpose, acting as
ixwtals of entry for many disease
genu* into the body.
Tbe tonsils are very liable to become
Inflamed. This condition constitutes
tonstlitis, or, when an abscess forms,
quinsy. Young persons, over flfteeu
and under thirty, are most subject to
haflnKiuiution of the tonsils, although
• children and even those well along in
life may suffer. It occurs with special
'£req®?ney in those whose tonsils are
enlar®?d aud usually in persons who
are "run down” in general health or in
vrhtscc? the power of resistance has been
lowered as a result of worry or over
exertion.
The extra study in preparing for a
difficult examination in school or col¬
lege and the anxiety concerning the re¬
sult aot uncommonly bring on an at¬
tack «if quinsy, especially iu those of a
8® called rheumatic tendency.
There are various kinds of tonslktis,
1 hut the symptoms of all are quite sim¬
ilar in the beginning. The patient feels
i IU. Juts chilly sensations, loss of appe
more or toss headache perhaps,
constipation, feverishness and a feel
tog «f discomfort or actual pain in the
thrust. Soon the fever becomes h -h,
the throat is dry, swallowing is pain
fid. there is often more or less earache,
and the patient seems seriously ill.
Suppuration may or may not
TV- pain and throbbing are most se¬
vere- when it does.
Yu© attack lasts usually from tv vo or
" torre- days to a week and is apt t< ter
ralaste- quite suddenly, although if but
> one tonsil has been affected recovery
vtr.y be delayed by an extension of the
inflammation to the other tonsil. In
tlw: ease the whole tiresome 0C68S
-tKicst be gone through with again.
The- disease Is almost always serious
i "eacrngh to require the physician’s care,
foe the treatment calls for internal
■ remedies as well as local applications.
Whatever else is done, the bowels
sSwuld be kept open from the begin¬
ning of the attack.—Youth’s Compan¬

Many Electric Railway?.
The Georgia and Alabama in¬
dustrial Index, published at Co¬
lumbus Ga., says:
I 4 Notable and of far-reaebing im¬
portance are the developments of
the past seven days with regard to
the construction of interurban
electric railways in Georgia and
Alabama. Fallowing a conference
in New York City, announcement
is made that construction of the
proposed electrric railways between
Atlanta and Macon, Ga., and the
latter city and Albany, Ga., will
begin in a few days. Necessary
financial arrangements have been
completed for building an electric
line between Dothan, Ala., aud
Geneva, Ala., at a cost of half a
million dollars. A company has
been organized and capital inter¬
ested to build the projected electric
railway between Dalton, Ga., and
Chattanooga, Tenn. A movement
has been begun to construct an
electric line between Troy, Ala.,
and Orion, Ala. New York City,
Philadelphia and Alabama Capita¬
lists, who, as told in The Index
last week, have become actively
interested in the building of an ele¬
ctric railway between Gadsden,
Ala , and Tuscaloosa. Ala., Via
Birmingham, and in establishing
a line of steamboats on the Warrior
River between Tuscaloosa and the
Gulf, have organized a railway and
navigation company and a con¬
struction company. The Index is
is advised of greater activity in
real estate deals aud in increased
prices of lands in sections through
which this new road will be built.
These inter urbai lines will
prove to be developers of inestima¬
ble potentiality. » J

Womans Home Mission Society.
In March 1904, over 10,000 im
migrants were landed at Ellis Is¬
land, New York, in a single day.
The next day 15,000 more arrived I
on seven steamers. During the
entire month 51,000 were received
in New York alone, and the month
of May 70,417.
These immigrants are mostly
Poles, Russians, Italians, Au-
8tnus and Hungarians. They
bring with them, poverty, ^literacy
and low ideals. Instead of project¬
ing themselves through the coun¬
try, mingling with other people
and acquiring our language and
civilization, they tend to huddle
together by nationalities in the
great cities, oftenest near the sea¬
shore. This foreign population,
with all their dreadful problems
of ignorance, sin and want, consti¬
tute from one-half to three-foutbs
of the population of our great
cities.
More and more are home and
foreign missions shown to be but
varying phrases of one pioblem.
The heathern are within our own
gates. Idolatry and all heathern
ish vices are in our cities.
The presence in our cities of
foreign populations is a challenge
to missions. It costs something
in mon Q y to spnd a ms 9 sionary
across seas to Africa, to China to
India, and to support him there;
it costs more in lose of life and
health from unfavorable climates
and unaccustomed ways of living.
Providence is now sending the
nations to us. tMnce 1857 three
hundied thousand Chiiiatnen have
come to dwell among us, paying
their own trunsportati m and ex
penses. They burn incense to
idols in their joss houses iu New
York and Chicago, Catholic Italy
and Atheistic Bohemia are within
our gates.
Truly, “He does most to Chris¬
tianize the world who does most to
Christianize Arne:ica, and he does
most to Chriitianize America who
does most to save our cities.’’_Is¬

Happy Marriages.
If marriage meant the wedding
of a saint and an angel there would
be no problems to solve, no per
fections to attain, no progress to
make. This may be why there
are no marriages in heaven.
On’earth it is different. Husband
and wife are strongly human. No
matter how lovingly united or how
sweet their uccord, they never
have the same temperaments, ten¬
dencies or tastes.
Their needs ar e different, their
manner of looking at things is not
identical and in varying ways their
individualities assert themselves.
At any critical moment if both ex¬
press at tho same time a desire to
defer to the other’s taste the result
is loreordained—happiness. This
makes matrimony not merely
union, but unison and unity.
The Spirt of compromise dose
not mean a continuous perfor¬
mance in the way of self surrender
and self sacrifice; it dose not mean
ceasing to be a voice and lie
coming an echo; it dose not imply
or justify the losse of individuality.
It means simply the iustincitive
recognition of the best way out of
a difficulty, th3 quickest tacking
to avoid a collision, the kindly
view of tolerance in the presence
of weakness and errors of another,
the courrage to meet an explantion
half way, the generosity to be first
to apologize for a discord, the large¬
ness of mind that dose not fear a
sacrifice of dignity in surredering
in the interests of the highest
harmony of the two rather than
the personal vanity—Delineator.

NEW BANK TO
BE ESTABLISHED.
Number of Leading Newton Cit¬
izens Will be Stockholders
in “Farmers and Mer¬
chants Banks.”
Covington is soon to have a new
entry into the banking world, and
the institution will be known as
tbe“Fariners and Merchants Bank”
with a capital of $30,000, and has
behind it vuite a number of the
most prominent, successful aud
progressive business men in New¬
ton county.
Covington already has three
flourishing banks, but owing to
the rapid development of the city
and county in all lines, the new
bai.k is to be established iu older
to make money more of a com¬
modity than at present. Farmers
especially, oftimes find it quite
difficult to procure loans when
money is most needed, and this is
intended to be one of the main
factors with the now institution.
Tillers of the soil who have cotton
that they do not want to sell at
unsatisfactory prices, and who de¬
sire to hold it, may bring it to the
city and place it in the warehouses
and procure a loan of needed monev
until the staple reaches a satisfac¬
tory prices.
It is probable that the capital
stock will be increased to $50,000
even before organization is com
pleted, ns many citizens of the
county are anxious to procure stock
in the institution which promises
to be a success from the beginning.
It is quite likely that Dr. N. Z.
Anderson will be presideut; Mr.
II. D. Terrell, vice president, and
Mr. Clarence Terrell cashier. Ar.d
if this be true, could a better offi¬
cered bank be found anywhere in
Georgia? We think not.
Location of a site for tho bank
building has not as yet been de¬
cided upon, two or three conven¬
ient places being in view, but this
