Seek relief in vain, until they begin to
wse Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. Then they re
grot tho years of suffering they might
have escaped had they tried this remedy
earlior. The trouble was constitutional
not local ; and, until Ayer’s Sarsapa

Alterativeand Blood Purifler, they were
compelled to suffer. » -
The wife of Samuel Page, 21 Austin

subject to severe heacaches, the resuit
of stomach and liver disorders. A per

Sarsapariila.
Frank Roberts, 727 Washington st.,
Boston, says that he formerly had ter
rible headaches, and uwtil he tuok
Aver's Sarsaparilla, never found auy
wedicine that would give

Permanent Relief.
“Fvery Spring, for years,” writes
Lizzie W. DeVean, 262" Kifteenth st.,
Brooklyn, N. Y., “I have had intoler
able headaches, T cormnmeaced the use
of Ayer's Sarsaparilla last March, and
have not Lad a headache since that

“J suffered {rom headache, inliges

Mrs. M. M. .lewis, of A st., Lowell,
Mass. ‘“ Aver’s flarzapariily 128 vorked

Jonas Garman, Esq., of Lykins, Pa.,

TWO SINNERS. |
There was a man, it was said one time, ‘
Who went astray in his youthful prime.
Can the brain keep cool and the heart keep
quiet
When the blood is a river that's running riot?
And boys will be boys, the old folks say,
And & man's the better who's had his day.
The sinner refor-g“ the preacher told
or me‘fm’lm son ‘:flm back to the
ola,
And Christian people threw open the door
With a warmer welcome than ever before.
Wealth and honor were his to command,
And a spotiess woman gave him her band.
And the world strewed their pathway with
flowers a-bloom,
Crying, “God bless lady and God bless
groom!”
There was a maiden went astray,
In the g)lden dawn of her life's young day;
Bhe had more passion and heart than head
And sl;cdfollowed bliadly where fond leve
ed,
And love unchecked is a dangerous guide,
To wander at will by a fair girl's side.
The woman repented and turned from sin,
But no door opened o let her in;
The preacher prayed that she might be
forgiven,
But told her to look for mer:‘ in heaven.
For this is the law of the carl¥, we know,
That the woman is scorned, while the man
may go.
A bravé men wedded ber, after all,
But the worid said, frovning, ‘“We shall
not call.”

Difference Between Atlauta and Sa

man.
The style of the Savannah man
is very different from the air
adopted as “the thing” by the At
lanta blood. You mee! a Savan
nah gentleman and he promptly
asks you to teke a drink. You
fall in with an Atlanta swell and
he waits until you ask him. If
you should refuss to accept the
Savaunnahian's invitation, he po
litely requests you to come with
“him and let him get cne; if you.
refuse to give the Atlanta man
any he persistently hangs aroand
antil you give Liim 15 cents and
send him abouat his business.
These arve quite striking charac
teristics one must admit, and go
quite a ways in settling the ques
tion of suy eriority as to the rela
l tive attentions of the two ecitiecs.
A Savanpah man takes you arouud
to his club and makes you feel at
home—no busiuess is o 0 pressing
! as to keep him from showing you
every attention. An Atlanta man
asks you where you are staying
at, says he wiil come around to
dinner with youn, and borrows &35
for a few minutas.

Mr. Gorse has evideatly assum

undertaken by man. Referring
to this proposed effort,an exchunge
says:
The boyeot is a terrible weapon
when brought into play against

it against the sisterhood of wo

“A Belle's “Lamcat™ The fair
unksown legrets seven weary
years of social toil. She is 24,
and has been flattered and com
plimented, and with the slightest
encouragement might now have
been a loving wife. She says:

meaningless sounds, for despite

she knows there ': truath in the

overwhelms her lito an avalanche
from which there = no escape
that among ali thz bnightly gal
lants not one of raiseworthy
throng has the mai 71 ess or cour
aga to ask her han in marringe.”
She points cut tha folly and fig
ures the expense of this lattering
around-the-light. v ‘thout-coming
to-the-point busin s, and adds:
“Isn’t it simply he.rt-rending for
a girl of my years—and gualifica

my room every day, aftar a night
of decollette dressing and silly
waltzing, and shad bitter {ears be
canze, though men flatter, they
refuge to think wzll enough to
marry me?’
I truly sympathize with the
young weman; but let ms ask:
“Is the lot of the young men who
flatter bnt dare not wed lovely
damsels of her stemp any more
envieble?” How « ften have I not
returned from a {ll dress rout,

dissolved into smoka even like the

throw among the blackened coals.

The battle is not won. I've a

maiden of to-day. She will listen
to your tribute to hor beauty.
She even grows a conuoisseur in

in tender little scenes with you;
but marry yon—dear, no, “he's
sach a dear fellow, but then he is
so wretchedly poor, and one must
wed a brilliant party, you know.”
Ido not know where the fault
lies, but that marriage among the
beautifuily less, cannot be denied.
That the effect upon both sexes is
demoralizing is equally apparent.
I know scores of young men with
brains and education who shun
society and the fashionable young
women for the reason that they
well know that marriage cannot
be thought of until much later in
life with women in her sphers,
and to follow in her wake an ad
miring swain is & thankless and
costly task fraught with more
vexation thun plearure. The re
sult is that in most large cities
there are coteries of young men—
and nsueally the best ones, too—
who live rather fast lives, and in
consequence when they do marry
at a late day, are unfit to ba has
bauds and fa'hers. Iknow scores
of young men who would be will
ing to marry—and in many cases
it would be their salvation—could
they find young women of equal
gocial attainments who would
brave the eiruggle with them.
The lives of mest of these young
men can be boilel down as {fol
lows: A more or less—according
to disposition —gay bachelor life,
and, if not wrecked by the way
gide, when they get fat, flabby
and bald, a brilliant wedding with
an ambitious bud, a short honey
moon, mutual disgust, big funeral,
interesting voung widow—trala.

Here is a prelty little Washing

him, and assured him that any
part of Washington was as safe
at midmight as noonday. Bat he
couldn’t be laughed out of his
precautiens, end now is glad that
he wasn’t. He had been attend
ing a committee meeting at one of
the down-town hotels the other
night. It was nearly 1 o'clock
wiien he started home. As he
neared the corner of Feurteenth
street and the Thomas Circle, a
burley negro stepped from the
shade of the overhanging trees
and insolently demanded to know
the time. Robbery was undoubt
edly his motive, bat the Georgia‘
member was equal to the occasion.
He rammed both hands into his
pockets, and when he pulled them
out the left beld a handsome gold
watch and the right an agly look
ing revolver. Holding both with
in an inch of the footpad's nose,
he coolly said: “Look for your
self, eir.” The negro dicd look.
Then he politely touched his bhat
and rau away as fast as his legs
could carry him. The Georgia
members may be depended on to
take caro of themseives in Wash

A DIiBTY PLOT BAFFLED.
Why Governor Gordon Refused to
Honor a Requisition.
Macor Telegraph. ‘
ATLANTA, March 9.—Great im
position is often practiced om
Governors to obtain raquisitions
‘'on other States for -Iog:;‘%- ;
tives from justice. A case that
came up to-day from Coffee coun
ty is a notab'e specimen. Indeed, '
it is doubtful if there is a vom]
case on record of the abuse of this
inter-State courtesy.
Last fall there came to Coffee
county from Sumter county, 8. C,,
a family consisting of Mr. James ‘
W. Budd and Miss Fannie Budd,
his daughter, a preposeessing
young lady. Shortly after thers
followed them one Dr. J. J. L.
Miller, from Sumter county, S. C.,
who, under an alias, bung around
the girl endeavoring to get hetr ta
go back to South Carolina with
Lhim. It transpires that Miller is
a warried man, and his puarpose
wiss anyihing but an honorable
one, Whatevaer encouragement
Le may have received from the
girl, his scheme was thwarted by
the father. Miller mado several
trips to Cutfee county, bui met
with failure each time. He then ‘
sought the aid of the law, and se
caured from Governor Richardson,
of South Carolina, upen affidavits
made charging Budd with obtain
ing money uvder false pretense,
a requisition upon the Governor
of this State for him. In the
weantime he also had the young
lady arrested in Coffce on the
same charge. On the preliminary
hearing ia the latter case Justice
Jim Denton, an honest, big-heart
ed magistrate, who had learned
the facts, dismissed the case as
“one of the flimsiest he had ever
heard of.” Budd was also arrest
ed on the 15th of February, and
has since been held in the sheriff’s
custody in Coffee, without an ex
ecutive warrant and coutrary to
law.
The sheriff of Sumter county,
South Carolina, Marion Sanders,
accompanied by a South Carolina
sheriff, has appeared beforas the
Governor with the requisition and
the affidavits and asked for the
proper warrant. With the papers
from Coffee county came a com
munication ¢ the Governor from
Justice Denton laying before his
excellency all the facts in the case
and stigmatizing it a “disgraceful
state of affuirs.”” The scheme of
Miller, as Justice Denton states it,
in getting the requisition for
Budd, the father, is to get him to
South Caroline on the idea that if
he can suceeed in it the daughter ‘
will go with him or follow him
there. It is nufortunate that the
Governor of South Carolina coald
not have been put in possession
of uhese facts when the applics
tion for a requisition wes made.
1t is certainly fortunate that the
Governor of (eorgia has been
made acqualuted with the true in
wardness of this whole transae-
Gordon deeclined to houor the
requisition, and Dr. J. J. T. Mil
ler, bis attorney and Sheriff San
ders, will return home completely
baftled.
