Sthc Herald and giccrfeett, Newnan, Ga., Friday, May 4, 1888. Mr. Kiljordan Falls Into the Trap. Chicago Tribune. “Irene,” exclaimed the young man, a pang of jealousy shooting through every fibre of his heart as he noted a ring he had never seen before on one of the fin gers of her left hand, “is that an en gagement ring?” “I will not deceive you, Mr. Kiljor- dan,” replied the young lady, blush- in^ deeply; “it is what might be consid ered a conditional engagement ring. The matter is not positively settled as yet, but mamma thinks Mr. Pedun cle—” “Then it may be that I am not too late,” said Bardolph Kiljordan, pas sionately, the violence of his emotions breaking down every barrier of reserve that the cold, circulating behests of ex pediency had erected between himself and his heart’s idol. “Irene, I had not thought to say to you for months, per haps years, the words that now come thronging for utterance and will no longer be stifled. I had intended to wait until time should prove the depth and sincerity of the feelings with which vou have inspired me, and until I could speak with the confidence of one who is certain of his foothold and has gain ed an insured position in life. But you know something of my prospects, Irene, and I have sometimes dated to think that I am not altogether displeasing to you. Can you not give me some hope that I have not aspired in vain—that your own heart echoes the throbbings of mine, which almost choke my utter ance? Give me the right, Irene, to call jou my own and to feel sure that no man, henceforth and forever, can stand between me and all earthly happiness. Will you?” “I will, Bardolph !” And the eloquent stillness that follow ed the softly spoken words of the fair young girl was punctuated by the old but ever new sound, that rapturous, wild,fervid, unpronouncable percussion , whose ecstatic articulation marks the climax of two trusting lives. “Irene,” said the youth, after a pause, “you will let me remove this ‘conditional’ engagement ring, now, will you not ?” “Certainly, Bardolph, though it is really of no importance. Take it off if you wish.” “And now tell me of that conditional engagement, my own.” “It was an engagement to meet Mr. Peduncle at 2 o’clock next Saturday af ternoon, should the weather be fair enough for me to venture out. I put it on myself so I would hot forget it.” “To meet Mr. Peduncle? Where, let me ask?” “At his office, of course. Don’t you know Mr. Peduncle?” “No. Who in the name of Christo pher Columbus is he?” “The dentist. One of my teeth—” "Trapped!” said the young man in a deep, tragic tone. And that evening at the performance, as she held a rose by a short stem, she waited until it was too late for him to save her and threw herself forward, receiving the ball in her brain, and smiling at him as she died. They found the poor little note, and he took the body of his wife home to her na tive hills, and she lies in the sunshine on the slope near the lake she loved in youth. His career was closed. He is now quite gray and shuns all gay company. He has never touched a gun since that night in Paris. An Albanian Romance. During a visit to Albania, one of the small independent Balkan States, I saw some remarkable deeds of marksman ship and heard a strange story concern ing the skill of the Albanians, says Olive Harper in the Philadelphia Press. There was a young man of some 24 or 25 years who was not only remarkably handsome among all the handsome men, but was one of the most expert marksmen they had. lie finally was persuaded to visit some cities to show his skill, and with him he had a young man who used to assist him by holding different objects for him to shoot at. They finally reached this place after a very successful tour, and as he was about to give an exhibition in his own birthplace of his powers, his helper was helplessly intoxicated. Among the disappointed audience was a slender and pretty young girl of only 16, who had loved this young man in secret ever since she could remem ber. He offered 500 draclnns for a vol unteer, man or woman, who would take his man’s place, and this young girl stepped out and up to the platform. He accepted her and she stood without moving or flinching while the balls al most grazed the delicate flesh on their way where he sent them. Her courage captivated him and they were married and together visited many countries, and in France they made a great furore. They had been married two years, and he had perhaps grown weary of such utter devotion, or he was dazzled by a woman of rank in France, and he neglected his poor wife, and every night she sat in a box and watched the handsome Albanian, who looked up to her for approval after each feat. The Albanian women have little mind and no education, and they live only on their love, and when that is wrecked they have nothing to fall back on and they die. That was all she could do, and life was not worth the living without his love. So she wrote a poor little misspelled letter, telling him that she was broken-hearted and was going to die, so that he could be happy with that beautiful woman who loved him and whom he loved; that she did not blame him in the least, she was only sorry, and that she was young and could not die unless she died by vio lence, and so, not to have the sin of iuici<te on her soul, she was going to - ■ '-i&kill her that night. She would leath from his hand. rt. Living on Volcanic Isles. Bonin Islands, discovered and settled by the Japanese 250 years' ago, and de serted by them fifty years later, are situated between the twenty-fifth and twenty-seventh degrees of north latitude, and east longitude about 140 degrees 23 minutes. There are more than forty islands, large and small. St. John, being the only one inhabitable, boasts of about fifty people of double nationality, governed by no law except the precarious one of “every man for himself, and the devil for us all.” While peace generally prevails, griev ances are not infrequently wiped out in blood—the assassin having nothing to fear unless the victim has some friend to avenge him. The group is of volcanic formation, and the scenery is wonderful. High mountains "whose heads disappear among the clouds, deep valleys worn into fantastic shapes by the heavy rains of January and February, per pendicular bluffs and level plains, smooth gravelled beaches and bold rocky shores, form a contrast so wild and picturesque, so terribly enchant ing, that one expects some great and instantaneous change, some wonderful phenomenon, a falling of these fright ful precipices, a rising of the fruitful plains—a grand mingling of the whole —for you cannot throw off the idea that the laws of gravitation are at fault, and that a crash may be expected at any moment. Pure springs of crystal water far up among the cliffs send down leaping brooks and rivulets, which, rushing through some volcanic rupture in the mountains, are scattered in finest spray, but gathering again, rip ple on their rocky course, seeming to smile as they glide more smoothly among the cabbage-trees, lonoma, mul berry and banana, spreading over the pebbly beach, and mingling with the waters of the harbor. And such an harbor, landlocked with perfect “hold ing ground” from ten to thirty fathoms below the surface. A hundred ships would “swing clear” with their “right bower” a cable’s length ahead. Green turtle are taken by thousands, and form the principal flesh food, al though wild hogs are found among the hills in large droves, and (leer are plenty. Twenty kinds of fish are caught along the reefs and shores. Onions are raised in large quantities, sweet potatoes and yams are cultivated to some extent, all of which are ex changed with passing vessels for Span ish dollars, and the dollars hoarded for want. but the idea of flying into one is pre posterous. Who ever heard of a lazy man breaking into a bank where a crow bar had to be used, or drilling in to a safe? Not but that he might covet his neighbor’s goods contained therein, but the horror of handling a crowbar or drills would always deter him from actually committing robbery. He never runs away with his neighbor’s wife, simply on account of the horror he has for running. If he is ever known to run, it is to run to seed. He rarely lies about his neighbors, for it would require too much exer tion; but he will lie about a bar-room all day. He is of estimable service to billiard saloons, keeping the chairs warm and watching the game, for few would care to play if there were no spectators. The fact that he does this, day in and day out, shows the remarkable unsel fishness of his natnre. The lazy man never gets up revolu tions, insurrections or any other popu lar excitements, and don’t make a nuis ance of himself by tramping around the country making incendiary speeches to promote public discontent. In his own neighborhood he is never a busybody in other people’s affairs, for the very idea of being a busybody or anything would drive him out of his head. No lazy man ever ran mad. If he goes crazy it is because he can’t go any where else without walking. Lazy men don’t disturb the quiet of peaceful neighbors, by putting up fac tories, furnaces and other abomina tions. a AA/rbRTb TN SEASON. IMPURE BLOOD. A Case in Florida Cured by B. B. B.

How to Save the Hair. Burlington (Vt.) Free Press. A young gentleman, whom we never suspected of vanity, but whose evident tendency to baldness we have often deplored, asks us bow to preserve the hair. He requests that our reply be strictly confidential, but knowing the character of the postmistress in his town, we prefer to run no risks, and accordingly answer in cold type. There are several well-accredited methods of preserving the hair. Per sonally we have tried none of them, but have kept a careful record of those recommended by our baldest friends. To avoid any invidious distinction be tween them, we submit the several methods in alphabetical order: A. —Arrogate no authority in the household. B. —Be in every night as early as a shutter can be procured. C. —Carry up coal when requested. D. _I)on’t dictate. E. —Eat what is set before you. E. —Fix the fire before going to bed. G.—Govern with wisdom the dog. II.— Hold your tongue when address ed. I. —Incline to instant obedience. J. —Join nothing (except stovepipe.) Iv.—Keep off the carpet. L. —Look sweet when lulling the baby. M. —Make merry with the wood-pile. N. —Never look a new bonnet in the bill. O. —Ostracise yourself when the sew ing circle meets. F. —Practice perfect patience. Q.—Quash every querulous com plaint. [ R.—Render yourself scarce in house- i cleaning time. 1 s.—Spend and be spent for the Sis- I ters of Timbuctoo and the Home for Incurable Hottentots. T. —Tend door. U. —Upset nothing. Y.—Vanish when callers come. TV.—"Watch the kerosene lamp and don’t let it smoke. X. —Xplain when called upon. Y. —Yearn for mother-in-law.

She takes it up hurriedly and begins to scan it over rapidly, as though she were hunting some particular thing, but she is uot. She is merely taking in the ob scure paragraphs, which, she believes, were put in the out of the way places for the sake of keeping her from see ing them. As she finishes each one, her countenance brightens with the comfortable reflection that she has out witted the editor and the whole race of men, for she cherishes a belief that newspapers are the enemies of her sex, and the editors her chief oppressors. She never reads the headlines, and the huge telegraphic lines she never sees. She is greedy for the local news anil devours it with the keenest relish. Marriages and deaths are always inter esting reading to her, and advertise ments are exciting and stimulating. She cares but little for printed jokes unless they reflect ridicule on the men, and then she delights in them and never forgets them. She pays particu lar attention to anything enclosed in quotation marks and considers it bet ter authority than anything first-hand ed. The columns in which the editor airs his opinions, in leaded hifaluting, she rarely ever reads. Views are of no im portance in her estimation, but facts are everything. She generally reads the poetry; she doesn’t always care for it, but makes a practice of reading it, be cause she thinks she ought to. She reads stories and paragraphs indiscrim inately, and believes every word of them. Finally, after she lias read all she intends to she lays the paper down with an air of disappointment and half con temptuous gesture, which says very plainly she thinks all newspapers mis erable failures, but is certain that if she had had a chance she could make the only perfect newspaper the world has ever seen. ITS USE FOR KIDNEYS. Jesup, Ga., May, 25,1887. I have been suffering from kidney disease lor a month past, and the pain in my buck was very severe- My occupation requires a good deal of writing at night, and I suffered ail the time.

My little son, M years of age, suffered from an acute attack of rheumatism,caused by undue exposure and chilling of the blood. I heard your remedv highly recommended, and pur chased a bottle from Moncrief & Bro., Pres cott, Ark. In about one month, after using- tliis bottle he became so much better that I got the second bottle, which is now being us ed, and my son is nearly well, and 1 think by removing him to a cooler summer climate (which 1 will do) and continuing its use, a perfect cure will be effected.

Down Two Years With Rheumatism AND NOWENTIRERY WERR. I have been troubled with rheumatism for t wo years; had gotten so I could scarcely walk, and was in pain nearly all the time. At night could not sleep for the excruciating pain. The bone in one of my legs was very much enlarged, and I feared that amputation would be necessary. After trying many du- ferent patent iqediciues claiming to cure rheumatism and other complaints, I was al most discouraged until about two weeks ago, when I had to give up business, Mr. W. J. Willingham, of your city, hearing of my com- olaint, advised the use of your medicine, and insured me of his confidence in it as a cure for rheumatism. I at once purchased a bot tle, hoping it might relieve me, hut not having much faith in it, or in anything else; but, thank God, I am very rauen relieved, and I firmly believe 1 will get- entirely well. The swelling has gone down and I am in no pain whatever. Am at work again, and have been for several days. Can run up and down the stairway in factory as nimbly as ever. 1 thank you for this earthly salvation to me. I write without your solicitation, or any knowledge of you, except through your med icine. I write because I feel grateful for what has been done for me. I am yours, very truly, W. A. Moore, Foreman for Willingham Lumber Co., Chattanooga, Tenn.

Crover Bottom, Sullivan County Tenn., June 20,1887.—Blood Balm Co. Atlanta, Ga. Sir: I have been thinking of writing to you forsome lime to let you know of the wonder ful cure your B. B. B. has effected on myself and daughter. She, a girl of 10 years, was taken with a verv sore leg below the knee. I used aoout 30 bot tles of other medicine to no purpose. The doctors said the only remedy left was amputation. That we all were op posed to. I was in Knoxville the 8th of Jan uary, 1887, and while buying a bill of drugs called for a good blood purifier, and Messrs. Sanford, Chamberland & Co. recommended the B. B. E. I purchased one-half dozen bot tles, and, to my utter surprise, after using three or four bottles, my giri’s'leg was entire ly well. I also had a very ugly running sore on the call'd my leg and one bottle cured it, after trying all other remedies. I wish you much success, and I do hope that all stiffening humanity may hear and believe in the only true blood purifier. I have tried three or four blood purifiers, but the B.B.B. is the only one that ever did me or mine any good. You can use my name if you wish. I am well known in this and Washington county, also all over Virginia. R. S. Ersom. BLOOM TAINT FROM BIRTH. Boonevirre, Inb., January 27, 18S7.

For a number ol years I have suffered un told agonies from the efiects of blood poison. I had my case treated by several prominent physicians, and recived but little, if any relief.

I have been a practical druggist in Tyler for i a number of years, audinthat timehavehad ■ occasion to examine, try, and notice the effect of nearly all the highly recommended prepar ations or ‘oatent medic nes on the market, as I have suffered untold misery myself, the past number of years, from a severe form ox in- flammatory rheumatism, and could find nothing to cure or relieve me. I had almost drawn a conclusion that all patent medicines were more or less frauds until about one year ago, I was induced by a friend now living in Tyler to try a preparation known as SB., or Botanic Blood Balm, and after a long per suasion on his part, 1 finally made up my mind to make one more effort to rid myself of the terrible affliction: and now it affords me the greatest pleasure of my liie to state to the citizens of Smith county that I am ent ire ly cured. with no traces of the disease leit, and ail effected by the magic healing proper ties of B. B. B., which 1 consider the grand est, unrest, and most powerful blood remedy known to man. I have been subject to in flammatory attacks since ten years of age, and up to the present time have had four.

When I returned to business in February my weight was 145 pounus, but gradually increased until my regular weight was again attained, 210 pounds. The noticea ble fact in what I have so cheerfully stated is, that this unparalleled and remarkable dis covery B. B. B. cured me in mid-winter, at the very time my sufferings and misery were the greatest. I take it on myself as a practi cal druggist to heartily, cheerfully, as well as conscientiously, recommend this g*orious blood remedy to all sufferers from rheuma tism or blood troubles, and not only myself, but the firm of McKay & Adams, who handle it will cheerfully indorse its superior merits.

A lady friend of mine has for several years been troubled with bumps and : imples on her face and neck, for which she used various cosmetics in order to remove theffi and beau tify and improve her complexion; but these local applications were only temporary and left her skin in a worse condition. I recommended an internal application— known as Botanic Blood Balm—which 1 have been using and selling about two years; she used three bottles and nearly all pimples have disappeared, her skin is soft and smooth and her general health much improved.

Finally, after I despaired of obtaining relief, a friend recommended B. B. B., (Botanic Blood Balm) ami I began using it ; not, however, expecting to be benefited. Alter using half a bottle I was satisfied I was being benefited, and when the sixth bottle was used I felt like a new man. I would not take $1,000 for the good it has done me; in fact, the relief that 1 derived from it is priceless. I. firmly believe I would have died had I not taken it.
