There being such a great demand
for Fever remedies in this country,
1 have been making a special study
>f the different remedies used in
nalarial troubles ever since I have
teen in the drug business. I dc-
ermined last Fall upon putting up
omc preparation that would cure
[She majority of cases of Fever,
Ague, ('hills, etc., and that would
ake the place of a great number of
Northern and Western Fever and
Ague-remedies, believing that one
living in this section is capable o
preparing something that is better
for the peculiar class of fever and.
he debilitating condition of the
system that prevails during the
Summer months. I lfave far ex*
1 my expectations— Last
Spring I began to manufacture
JENNINGS’* FEVER TONIC'
Since which time I have put uj
and sold several thousand bottles.
und IT HAS .NEVER FAILED TO CERE
in a single instance. Meeting
with this unprecedented success I
feel pcrfeetlv safe in placing a
GUARANTEE upon EVERY bot
tle; so, when it is taken according
to the directions and it does not ef
fect a cure the money will be re-
(funded.
The regular practicing phvsi-
inns of the country have exninin-
1 the formula of Jennings’ Fever
onic, and pronounce it efficient
j muL harmless.
I place before the public only a
jfew of the great number of unsolic
ited certificates received in regard
its cures.

It is a grief to go through our
great fruit markets to see the
enormous waste and think of
the disappointed shippers, says
the American Agriculturist. All
over the country, people who
send fruit to New York or oth r
markets expects the top price.
They often get a bill of expense.
Why? The fruit was packed
carelessly, biuised in the hand
ling and packing, and worse
than all. great quantities pack
ed too ripe. Thousands of crates
and baskets of peaches and
pears, tens of thousands of
crates of tomatoes, thousands of
barrels of apples and melons are
thrown away every year, and
this year has Leen especially
hard on fruits of all sorts. The
moist weather has forced a suc
culent growth, which is, perhaps
the reason for the rapid decay.
The lesson to be drawn from
this state of things is, not to
ship fully ripe fruit; to pack
with great care, handling every
article separately, even though
they may be apparently hard.
Time thus expended is money
saved. Do not unjustly blame
the commission merchant for
what is vour fault. It matters
not, if year after year vou have
shipped in the same manner
and received good returns. In
some conditions of the market
anything that is fruit will seli
well. In times of abundance,
the case is quite otherwise. The
prime article sells at a fairly
good price, while inferior goods
rarely pay expenecs, and some
times even net a loss.
Mr. Beall 9 s Suicide.
The suicide of James A. Beall,
at Albany, Ga., Friday, has about
it a tinge of pathetic sadness,
despondency, as stated in the
News dispatenes, over financial
reverses prompted.the deed. Fri
day afternoon Cnpt. Westbrook
found in Mr. Beall’s pocket-book
two careful folded sheets of letter
paper upon which were written the
following “memorandum,” which
contains the last requests of the
deceased, and which, so far as is
known, is the only communica
tion he left for his family or
friend:
memorandum.
To a man of birth, education
and refinement, three things are
essential to happiness—health,
wealth and pleasant domestic re
lations. Any of these lacking,
life is not worth living.

of the room was Sum Small,
writing at a table, his glasses
slapped jauntily over his nose
and his hair looking like a last
year’s bird’s nest. He was puf
fing vengefullv at a cigarette,
which lie held in a meerschaum
lioldci. This is the way Sam
and Sam spend their mornings
at the hotel, except that Mr.
Jones generally gets a Bible af
ter awhile and reads a chapter
or two, which he and his co-la
borer discuss.
There is nothing striking in
the personal appearance of*
either of these men, who have
made such wonderful reputa
tions in the religious field. In
act, they are both very much
ike ordinary men, and would
lever attract attention in a
•rowcl or be looked at twice on
the street. Sam Jones impress
es you as a man of firm will and
determination. He is continu
ally closing his lips tightly, like
x inan who is about to take a
desperate jump. Some people
say this is affectation, but if
there is any affectation about
Sam Jones, it is very inconsist
ent with the rest of his charac
ter. He is a t-elf-reliant man, of
course, and he talks to you with
confidence. But isn’t this nat
ural, considering the remarkable
success of the man?
Sam Jones laughs a great
deal. He laughs particularly
loud when he says anything fun
ny himself. And when hd
laughs he makes you laugh,
whether you see the point or
not. This is because he laughs
so much like he enjoyed it, and
so much like he meant it. Sam
Joiit-s is forever plauging Sam
Small, and Sam Small never
loses an opportunity to tell a
joke on Sam Jones. And' then
they both laugh like savages,
and slap their knees, and tell it
all over again.
Mr. Small is a stubbonly
hard worker, nervous and rest
less in strength, and endowed
with a mental capacity that
never tires. He is a younger
man than Jones, has a much
better education and superior
advantages in many respects.
Sam Jones is a great lover of
music and nature and eloquence.
These things thrill him and
stir him, and what he says
about them is the struggle of
strong impulses and natural
emotions to assert themselves.
Sam Small loves books—books
of art, language and science.—
He is an exhaustless reader and
a faithful student. He spends
much of his time over the
Bible, and reads chapter upon
chapter after Sam Jones is
asleep. In short Sam Small
makes his power, and Sam
Jones found his already made.
Sam Small is a student and
Sam Jones is a genius.—Cin

! nation forme which I cannot shake.
I was at the battle of Gettysburg
myself, and an incident occured
there which largely changed my
viewe of the Southern people. I
had been a most bitter anti-South-
ern man, and fought and cursed
them desperately. I could see
nothing good in any of them.
“The last day of the fignt I was
badly wounded. A ball shattered
my left leg. 1 lay on the ground
not far from the Cemetery Ridge,
and as Gen. Lee ordered his re
treat he and his officers rode near
me. As they came along I recog
nized him. and though faint from
exposure and losr of blood, 1
uised upon my hands, looked
General Lee in the face and shout-
loud aa 1 could ‘Hurrah for
the Union!’ The General heard
me, looked, stopped his horse, dis
mounted and came toward me. I
comess that I first thought he
meant to kill me. But as he came
up lie looked down at me with
such a sad expression upon his
face that all fear left me and I won*
acred what, he was about. He ex
tended his hand to m<$, and grasp
ing mine firmly and looking right
into my eyes., he said :
“My son, I hope you will soon be
well.”
“If I live a thousand years I
shall never forget the expression
in Gen. Lee’s face. There ho
was, defeated, retiring from a field
that had cost him and his cause
almost their last hope, and yet he
stopped to say worcw'likc those to
a wounded soldier of the opposi
tion who had taunted him as he
passed by. As soon as the Gener
al had left me I cried myself to
sleep upon the bloody ground.

Paper Railroad Cars. ’
A technical journal on car
building says:
“We do not expect to sec passen
ger or freight cars entirely of
metab There are many cerious
objections to mctalic siding, but
paper in some of it forms, will
doubtless be used instead, al
though for many years wood, from
its cheapness, will hold its own
against any other substances.
We do riot apprehend that there
will be any considerable difficulty
in covering cars, but so long as the
wood is cheapest and sufficiently
strong and durable to answer the
purpose we must content our
selves with speculation in regard to
the future. When straw board
can be obtained at anything like
thc price of wood, the siding of
passenger cars at least will l>e
much better made of paper than
of wood. The size of the sheets
which is easily obtainable, and
thc firmness with which* they can
be fastened to the posts, are some
of the advantages in its favor.
We suppose, from what we have
heard in regard to straw board
and straw lumber, that in times a
single paniel extending from the
door around the corner and to
the entire of the car, and reaching
from the window sills to the botr
tom, can be used to good advan
tage. Such a canstruction would,
of course, greatly increase the
strength of the car, would lie en
tirely free from splintering incase
of collisions, and would show sev
eral other material advantages.
