There was some relaxation of the ten sion on that account, but this was owing partly to the fact that business for the day was over in London before It began here. Tho London market Itself, while In operation, showed a decidedly more tran quil tone and some tendency toward* re covery from the acute weakness of the day before, British* consols sharing In this tendency. .. The local market, was free from the pressure of foreign liquidation which has overwhelmed It on each successive day of the week and,the way was thus opened to moderate advances. _ , _ The prominence of the Harrlfnan stocks nnd of Rock Island In this movement was tciiilmony to the influence of yesterday's development pointing to llarrlman inter est In Rock Island uftaira. Another ground for the h irregular stock mnrket was of gold exports and its possible “ —rket. lurge exports of agrlcultu* the money market.

When applied to animals, tobacco In small doses first retards and then ac celerates the action of tho heart; In strong doses It-reduces the beats and Increases the pressure of blood on the heart, while the pulse also becomes more rapid If the doses are toxic. Tobacco as used for smoking or snuf flng usually contains but a small per centage of nicotine: thus symptoms-of Intoxication are of rare occurrence. When smoking It it not nicotine that enters the mouth, but pyridine and other products of tho dry distillation of the tobacco, theproportlona of which vary vastly according to the method of smoking/ With a cigar only a small amount of pyridine fa formed, but oollfdlne Is pro.* ent, while a pipe gives a considerable quantity of pyridine. When the nar- ghlleh or the cigarette Is employed the smoke Is very often breathed in a prao- tlcewhlch Is very harmful In the oaso of the cigarette, but not with the nar- ghlleh, which la provided with a spe cies Of water Alter. Besides, when ci garettes are used much more tobhcoo Is consumed aa a *ule. Smoking In moderation does not ap pear to be harmful .to adults, but It Is otherwise with young persons. With adults tobacco seems to stimulate the activity of the brain, and also to calm certain forms of excitement. However this may be. tobacco smoke affects the circulation, as is shown by the* palpi tations and pains In the cardiac regioi. which It produces, and which may go even so far as angina pectoris, irre gularity of the heart's action la a fre quent feature, especially with certain kinds of tobacco, often- all these symptoms do not entirely dlsapear un til months after the use of tobacco lias been given up. Tobacco smoke Increases the secre tion of saliva, and those who do not spit swallow their saliva unconscious ly. Tobacco diminishes' the secre tions because of Its action on the nerves of the glands, and thus reduces the movements of the stomach, which may develop an Insufficient activity of that organ and thence Ms distension. Due reservo Is neverthrieea necessary In fudging the subject of the Influence of tobacco on the gsetro-lntestlnsl func tions. for people who do not smoke are quite as subject to derangements of this nature as those who do. The effect of tobacco smoke mar lead to an excess of gastric activity and an hvernroduetton of the hydrochloric arid In the stomach, but In a more or less Indirect fashion hr the swallowing of a large quantity of saliva. 8mok!ng after meals may Interfere with the digestion, s'nee the arrival of a largo smount of saliva In the stomach fa capable of neutralising the gastric ac idity and so stopping tho wrortc of tbs Julc*. In oome coses an abuse of to bacco may ho the cause of serious nerv ous Cv-p-ps!* which disappears wh-n Is discontinued. In short, tho tain subjects enjoy a remarkable Immu nity from tho effects of tobacco, These people caqn'ot. engage, somewhat actively In brain work without at once smoking Immoderately, but they aro exceptional cases. Tobacco can. on the contrary, produce very appreciable nervous .disor ders. Trembling is a frequont feature. It Is slight, rhythmical and mbit effects of tobacco on the digestion of who begin to smoke are well Th-r* Is Widespread belief that tobacco help* the regularity of th* bowels, al though thl« le far from -helmr proved. In<Wd. perhaps all that can he demon strated is that an abuse of tnbaooo leads to nervous _ depression and Irregular stant, but It tends to beoome -per* and disappears when the hablf-ls; stop- ^Tobacco produces chillness In the ex tremities, paleness of the face and per spiration of tho hand. It would appear that an abuse of It leads to arterio- eolerosis. Insomnia is one of lta most disagreeable effects. This comes on sf ter tho first sleep and then after two t four hourc a disturbed slumber followr. The effect of tobacco 6 nthe mucous membrane of the mouth and tongue are seen by the production of excoriations, and even sometimes of warts (With alight degree of hardness. The ^ marked development of this hardening and the beginning of ulceration warns of the appearance of .epithelioma, or smok er’s cancer. It forms In the same way hard spots and cracks on, the lips, espe cially in the case of plp6 smoking, the hmt of which aeems to Increase the evil effects of tobacco. In spite of a pretty general opinion which attributes to tobacco pernicious effects upon the pharynx and the upper air passages, there are celebrated slngt who have never given up smoking. Nt. erihetaM, It Is Incontestable that tobacco . — ur-atlmulatlon of all , — In contact with the smoke, which Is far- from being con ductive to a good condition of the organ. American Souvenir-Hunters, From ths London Telegraph. There la In tho Johnson museum at LlchAeld an armchair with a tapestry seat which belonged to the doctor. The seat shows an ugly rent, where a piece of the tapestry waa hastily cut out. The .culprit Is believed .to be an American Votnan who had visited the museum thres, days running and waited patiently for her chance. When It came she used It ruthlessly, and Was seen no more. The chair Is now Imprisoned, for aafety, In a glass case. Custodian* of historic places are specially on the alert when they hear the American accent, for the spirit of Autolycus is strong in th$ breast of the tourist from the other aide. Last year a letter appeared 1n the papers describing the visit of a party of Americans to Stok.* Poxes in a motor car. They examined the church, roamed over the charebyard, cast "longing, lingering looks" at the yew tree, and at M*t, despairing of the chance of looting on Elegy souvenir unp**rcelved. tore up from the gate a small notice-board beging visitors not to injure the shrubs and vanished In a cloud of dust. What, It may be wondered, would their cholee have been had they been left alone In the church? Rellc-huntlng and souvenir-collect' Ing seem to be a mania with a large number of Americans who otherwise Are perfectly well>behaved members of society. A splinter of - wood from an old balustrade, a fragment of ce ment or brick from a Roman wall, a Rower - from a poet's grave, a few threads from a duchess’ counterpane, the stump of a celebrity's cigar, a chip' of alabaster from a mouldering effigy. -~the possession of these things makes them deliyfoualy happy. - .— October .4.Si - , rslstent October-November 4.67# Rock Island Co. ..

MACON’S SUPERB STEAM LAUNDRY AN INSTITUTION OF WHICH MA CON SHOULD B PROUD—LARG EST IN THE SOUTH. Did you know that Macon enjoys the distinction of having tho largest laun- ii \ »--t.ib]l8hm«-nt In th- mmih And not only Is it oonceded to bo the Urgest, but tho bext equipped. And as ’ to its capacity—If every collar, cuff and all the article* of wear that ore washAble were poured Into the Creecent Steam Laundry tomorrow morning, every collar, cult and every other article would be reedy for de livery on Tuesday mornlnr. It was not built for today’s demand*—It was built to meet the demands of years hence. Tho handsome building on Second street waa erected for an up-to-date laundry and for no other purpose. The baaement la deep, and is covered with concrete Aoor. with a view to drain- ago end sanitation. It covers an aroa of 87x125 feet, and on thla la placod the heavy washing machinery, every machine of the latest make and pat tern. In this basement Is the largest man glc, with the greatest capacity of any In the south. This Is used for tho linens. Tho second floor Is devoted to tho various stnges of laundry after It leaves the basement. The automatic drying room Is one of tho attractions of this floor. The travel of a collar la Interesting. It comes Into the office with Its soiled rim. and shoots down stairs where It receives tho helroglyphlcmsrk and then into the wushlng machine. Then It goes through the drying room and through tho finisher. Rapidly It goes through ths hands of a nlmble-flnger- cd young man who separates this col lar from another, and In fact all tho collars, and as rapidly It finds itself In the hands of a young lady who wraps It up neatly. Into the wagon bln. according to the location It la to he delivered, the bundle goes, and thence by wagon to the owner. In twenty-fours hours all the laun dry Is received and finished. Tho establishment Is complete In every detail. It Is located in the heart of the city. It has Its own stables, nnd is provided with ovary facility. It gives employment to a largo num ber of people, among whom ars young men and ladles. Mr. K. Elkan IS ths president of the company, and In building the was done waa with ono special and single object In view—that of mak ing It the largest nnd best equipped laundry In ths south. 123 Phono, Birch Hardware Oo.

Nelson had been convicted of ear« breaking, nnd sent up for threo years. He began this sentence In March last, nnd had endeavored, so the records show, to prove himself a good prisoner. Ho was at work on Friday, nnd did not complain of being sick. It Is supposed that some time during tho night he was stricken with apo plexy, and died Without making nny sound, as It was not known until the morning that he had been nick. * Tho Jury rendered a verdict to tho effect that Nelson died from natural causes, presumably apoplexy.

Indeed. If the dis mission of the education bills In the house of lords was so abnormally pro longed left yaar. It was becauss there wns no presiding officer qualified to pre vent Irrelevancy. In th* house of com mons, when a member In addrenslng the chair strays from the matter under dis cussion, h* Is at one# railed to order by the speaker, whereas In the house of lord* peer* who startM speaking on th; subject of the education bill meandered on until they found thsmsshrss at the close of their speech soliloquising often to empty benches on matters In Afghanis tan, th* now Persian constitution, Chi nese reform and the "suffragette” move- rn Mortower, there are occasionally scenes In the bouse of lords which could not, by reason of the discipline maintained by the speaker, happen In the house of com mons. Thus. In one Instance, when the late Lord Denman exasperated his fel low peers Into murmurs of protest by the prolixity of his Irrelevant speech, ha turned upon them with tho exclama tion: ”1 tony not be your equal In de bate, but I am the equal of any one of you In my shirt sleeves!" Another time the late I,ord B»aronsfleld nnd the late I/>rd Granville both g«A up nt the same moment to address the house. Neither would give way to the Other, and after a most unseemly wrangle the matter had to be decided by a full-fledged di vision. Htlll another lord, who was snx- lou* to address the house on the de ed wife's sister 1)111. missed his train did not reach i^>ndon until tho fol lowing day. Wfcen he arrived In the house he found that tho question then under discussion was the opening of the musrums on Kundnys. Hut without thn slightest regard for relevancy, under discussion 1 on r the “lord VC' , kS.MUl _______ In. Ms Place and got off_hlei _ape< about The deceased wife* _____ ^ which had been decided by the house the day before. It la no wonder that Lonl Campbell/ when b.r.i high ct.nnoi- lor, was wont to declare that tho British house of lord*, although the most august and assuredly the most nnolont of all legislative bodies In existence, was like- , Vise the most disorderly.
