Stlte gjcratd and ^dccrtisq. Newnan. Ga., Friday, October 12, 1888. His Manner of Gait. Would you read a man’s thoughts? Observe his gait; study his walk. A famous philosopher approached by a per son whom lie had never met before, shouted out: “Speak, that I may see you.” It was through the voice only that the beauty of a person could lie seen by him.* If he had desired to form an accurate estimato of the mind he would no doubt have cried: “Walk, that I may judge of you.” A man may conceal his true character by his tongue—he may be able to make it wag in a way which will deceive, but his legs will betray him. A thief can no more walk like an honest man than a camel can go through the eye of a needle; a melancholy man cannot possibly put on the gait of the soldier, and Caliban never walked like Ariel. There is fine walking which indicates self posses sion; uprightness walks with ease and freedom; the student has the slow and musing pace; the tradesman the quick, nervous movement, while the laborer has the hard and heavy tread. A keen ob server once remarked that duplicity al ways skulks; so it does. In like man ner, the thief invariably sneaks; shame has a sidelong carriage, but honesty puts its feet into Excelsior’s boots and marches to an “onward” measure. You will have no difficulty in picking out the student. Who has not, while strolling in tlie public garden or walking along some of the few thoroughfares not yet blocked by commerce, noticed the man with arms behind and eyes fastened fixedly before him, neither looking to the right nor to the left, but with slow and steady step passing silently onward? Per haps you ask yourself, “What can that man be out for; he neither sees nor hears anything that is happening around him; what good does a walk do him?” The student’s air, his gait, his every action will indicate that he is thinking— that there is something he is endeavoring to grasp; he walks like a man seeking a pearl which he feels lie will certainly sooner or later find. He has a confident gait. Note the air of him who is troubled. Restless nature—quick, nervous step; not attempting to seek anything; not striving to note the beauties of the universe of God, or the handiwork of man, but on the contrary endeavoring to shake off some dreaded monster which appears to follow him; a hidden power which seems to speak to him as to that other wanderer, bidding him “move on,’’and he walks hurriedly, seeing nothing, hearing nothing. Ho is oppressed by a horrible n iglitmare whose name is sorrow. Sorrow and stillness in such a case are synon ymous terms, and exercise is the only antidote. It is the easiest thing in the world to note that a man is in trouble by his gait; indeed, he betrays it to that extent that •logs have been known to bark at such persons, as if divining that they were at war with mankind. If a man is vexed ho walks to get over his madness, and if you observe him sharply you will notice that, not having the object of his anger to kick, he viciously kicks up the gravel or tries to chip off pieces of the pave ment with his boots. flow can you tell a wicked man? The wicked flee when no man pursueth. If a man has done anything for which his conscience accuses him, his impulse is to fly, to get away from the scene of his crime and to put space between himself and that still, small voice. Ho will be in a hurry, and there will be neither po etry nor harmony in his step. After men quit this earth they are sometimes forced to walk, in order to expiate some of their offenses.—D, J. McGrath in Boston Globe. At Undo Sara’s Sob-Treasury. There are other advantages derived from the sub-treasury. Bills become worn and unfit for service, and these, in amounts of $500, will be taken at the de positories and fresh, new bills be given in exchange. Then, too, coin i3 being called in at certain times to give place to later coinage. The silver dollars in circulation before the Bland bill of 1878, commonly known as “the dollars'of our daddies,” and appearing on the assistant treasurer’s report as “dads,” have been called in. Twenty-cent coins and fractional cur rency have been called in by the depart ment. These coins or currency when re ceived at any of the sub-treasuries are held until an amount of sufficient worth is received, when it is shipped to Wash ington, the silver being recoined and the currency destroyed. The reporter asked Assistant Treasurer Shultz regarding counterfeit money and as to whether it was ever received in his office. He replied that it was seldom any counterfeits were received, as the principal part of their business was trans acted through banks, and it is rarely the case that a bad bid or a spurious coin passes the vigilant eyes of the tellers. When bills or coins are received the money passes through the hands of his chief teller or his assistant, and they are each experts in detecting counterfeits. A bill passing through their hands and having the slightest appearance of being spurious is closely examined and then it becomes apparent at once that some outside party is trading upon the good name and credit of Uncle Sam. None of the counterfeits are perfect. In bills there is a deficiency in the size or a poor job of engraving on the vignette, a difference in the thickness of the paper, a something which is at once apparent to the experts and it is at once thrown aside. An iron stamp, bear ing the word “counterfeit,” in raised letters, is then heated in a gas jet, and the word fumed into the bill so that it can never be defaced. This is then given back the owner—as though that were any consolation. A silver piece found to be spurious is cut in two and the pieces returned. An average of probably three or four bills comes into the sub-treasury in the course of a month and are thus treated.—St. Louis Republic. A List of Health Suggestions. The hot pastry and iced drinks of this country have much to do with the thin ness of its people. Disordered digestion in adults is often the outcome of being compelled or in duced to eat rich food in childhood. Up to middle life most people are care less regarding their physical condition, hence persons who ought to live long lives have their days curtailed. The time to pay strict attention to the bodily health is during the vigorous portion of life. It is quite a common practise to dose infants with teas, oils and sweetened waters when any real or imaginary ill is upon them. In some cases it is necessary to re-enforce the natural supply of nour ishment, but where possible, nature’s fount should be relied on chiefly. For those who hurry to and from their meals soup is recommended as a prepara tory agent for the reception t>f solid food. For a man to hurriedly rush to his meals mid gulp down meat, vegetables mid pie, without a short pause of rest for the stomach, is nearly akin to suicide. Toasting bread destroys the yeast germs and converts the starch into a soluble substance which is incapable of ferrnen- fation. Dry toast will not sour the stomach nor produce any discomfort, and is, therefore, more agreeable to a weak digestion than any other bread. A stooping position, maintained for any length of time, tends more to under mine the health than is supposed. An erect position should be observed, whether sitting, standing or lying. To sit with the body leaning forward on the stom ach or to one side, with the heels ele vated on a level with the hands, is not only in bad taste, but exceedingly detri mental to health; it cramps the stomach, presses the vital organs, interrupts the free motion of the chest and enfeebles the functions of the abdominal and tho racic organs, and, in fact, unbalances the whole muscular svstem.—Household. Delights of the Alhambra. Granada during the hot weather was very delightful indeed. Everybody knows the delights of the Alhambra, and, as the best part of the town stands high, it was comparatively cool. We had rooms in one of its towers, bringing a couple of our own servants with us, and when we did not feel inclined to have cooking done at home, could go to the hotels close by, which were always crowded at that sea son and very amusing by reason of the mixture of nationalities to be met there. In this enchanted city’, dirty though it be, you might persuade yourself easily enough that you had left behind the bustle and toil and confusion of the present; time moves so gently that a hundred years more or less does not seem to matter much—there is a quiet retrospective air about things which is eminently soothing, and on the breezy heights of the Alham bra the noise and jar of cities appear as far off as if they belong to another world. Everything is full of an ineffable sense of repose, of peace, of long unbroken silences, save when the irrepressible tour ist breaks in upon you unobserved and disturbs your sense of the fitness of things. As you stand at your window at night fall you may hear the nightingales sing ing in the elms beneath, and as you wake next morning and see Granada dimly shining in the golden mist of dawn far below, the white, snowy crest of the Sierra Nevada in the distance and the nearer hills, all blue and purple as a background to the fairy palace at whose gates you dwell, you may well feel that you have rarely looked on a fairer scene, or at all events oue more full of deep and abiding interest.—Cor. San Francisco Chronicle. How a Panorama Is Painted. The popular idea of how the war cy- cloramas, like the Battle of Gettysburg, Battle of Shiloh, Battle of Chickamauga, etc., are painted appeals very laughable to a person who knows how the work accomplished. The Battle of Gettysburg and the Siege of Paris have been shown for several years on opposite sides of Hubbard court, in Chicago, and the stock paid large dividends. Each was adver tised as the work of celebrated French artists, father and son, and the popular idea is that these gentlemen painted them The fact is that, beyond a general out lining of the work, which was probably faithfully made after maps procured from authentic sources and a general direction of the plan of the work, the artist in chief had very little to do with it. No man engaged in a battle sees it, and an accurate painting of two armies in com bat is impossible. The general features only are known. For instance, in the Gettysburg painting there are accurately defined the roads, Crown Hill, Little Crown Hill, the wheat field Ih which a memorable charge was made, one or two buildings which were headquarters of the leading generals, and with reasonable accuracy, the topography of the country is de picted with excellent perspective. But the details of the battle, the actual clash of arms between this and that division or brigade, is left a good deal to the imagination. The artist-in-chief hires some men to put in the sky, other men to put in the trees and foliage, other men to put in the men in action. Attention is paid to developing this or that memorable inci dent, as in the Gettysburg painting, the death of the cannoneer, the amputation of the soldier’s limb beside the haystack. Take it all together, it makes up a picture that is thrilling enough to arouse die most intense interest on the part of the old soldier. I remember standing by she side of a veteran at the Chica- picture of Gettysburg. He was explain ing to a companion the details of the light, in which he had borne an honor- ible part. “Sav Bill,” said he, “at that 3tone wall there I lost my hat, and, by gosh, if there ain’t the old hat lying there yet!” In painting pictures of bat tles shrewd artists never fail to bestrew the field with lost hats, muskets and canteens.—Artist in Globe-Democrat. a wordIn season. The value oi English SimpUeity of Manner. If there is anything which English women dislike more than another it is making a fuss. They do not gush over a new acquaintance or over an old one; it is the avoidance of fuss and gush and sloppy compliments which has gained them a reputation for coldness of man ner. The coldness of manner is simplicity of mauner; that and nothing else, and it is simplicity of nature which dictates the simple manner. Lunch may mean a party of twenty people, but whether twenty or two, there is no ceremony. The ladies walk into the dining room by themselves, the men straggle after, and find their way to such seats as suit them. The talk is as easy as if you were sitting about a fire, or more so. If the lunch is a small one, the talk ripples about the table; if large, you have to take your chance with the two fellow creatures next you—men or women, as chance, yoU or superior strategy may have determined. Society does not ob ject to serious topics, or even to the seri ous treatment of them; what it objects to is pedantry, pretention, dullness—to that which is heavy as distinguished from that which is serious. It has preferences and strong preferences, but it will endure much. What it will not endure is the professor who brings into its presence the solemnities of the lecture room, or the man who arrives with a mission.—G. W. Smalley in New York Tribune. Science for the Million. Nowadays when a man travels there is no reason, if he visits some country that has not been exhausted, why he should not bring back many solid and accurate facts of scientific value, even though he may lack extended training in science Both the English and the Germans have comprehensive hand books comoiled by the most notable authorities, giving the traveler manifold hints how. to make his wanderings useful to the world. They show him ip the simplest possible manner the methods of making route maps, of ascertaining most easily and accurately the width and velocity of rivers, the height of mountains, latitudes, longitudes and so on. They point out the facts he needs to observe to give geologists the clearest idea of tho physical structure of a country. They show him how to make and preserve collections in natural his tory, supply hints on surveying and pho tography, and tell him just what to do to make his observations valuable. If, in addition to those hints, he desires preliminary instruction and practical field training, ample provisions to meet his wants have been supplied by the geographical societies in London, Paris and Berlin, where at moderate [ cost (in London only two shillings and sixpence an hour) he is drilled in surveying and mapping, geology, including field train ing, geological survey, botany, and pho tography. This is all the preliminary training that many of our most eminent explorers, including Stanley, have re ceived. Many ingenious devices and ex pedients have also been invented to facili tate the work of the explorer, of which we need only mention hero the French color plates, each tint having its own number, by means of which the traveler is able to give a far more accurate idea of the color of the people ho meets than he could convey by any description. The invention of dry plates in photography also has been a great boon to explorers.— New York Sun. A Short amt Tough Lot. The lot of our criminal classes seems demonstrably to be a short one and a tough one. It has actually no ameliora tions. “Out of GO, 000 prisoners, more than one-half are between the ages of 17 and 30.” It takes but three generations ^ to use up a stock that runs to vice. Tho ^ coverage life of vicious people is less than si\<X>ne-half that of people of virtue. A recent writer complains that science , .A create^ a code of morals that consists in v health.

A Gaug of Greeks. It was pleasant to look at the gang of Greek immigrants that had been brought to Castle Garden, by a steamship from one of the Mediterranean ports. They had come from the vicinity of ancient Athens to try their fortunes in New York. It was evident to any one who looked at their garb as they set foot upon our shores and meandered through Bat tery park that they were very poor peo ple, whose lives had been very hard, but you could not find on this globe finer specimens of any race of mankind. They would have made models for a sculptor. Their figures had been cast in an antique mold, worthy of the time of Pericles; their limbs were lithe, their features classical, and they bore them selves proudly as they glanced around at the novel scenes of the locality. ’ The im migrants from Greece who landed - at Castle Garden last year numbered over COO men and women.—New York Even ing Sun. Slaves and Railroads. As a whole nation we are not greatly concerned to inquire into the prospects of African commerce. We are not bound to consider closely whether good or bad trade will be the outcome of the recent agreement between France, Germany, and Great Britain on the affairs of Zan zibar, or what will be the trade results of our own recent great acquisition of ex clusive influence in the southern parts of the country. It must yet be borne in mind that trade questions are themselves intimately bound up with the rescue of the African from his tyrants; seeing that commerce, as it is at present conducted in many parts of Eastern Central Africa, even that larger kind of commerce with which the white man eventually deals at the sea coast emporia, necessarily involves the employment of slaves as carrier's. In roadless regions inhabited by people who are too primitive to breed cattle, and where belts of country infested bv the tsetse fly have to be crossed, none but human beasts of burden can bear the products of industry. An elephant may be killed a thousand miles front the coast, and each tusk is the burden of a negro slave to the nearest seaport, while it will have taken three or four negroes to carry the calico required to pay the elephant hunter in the interior. Slavery and slave carriage is therefore at present a necessary incident of trade in manv parts of Africa. It is evident that if civilized modes of carriage are once es tablished in the German and English “spheres of influence,” slave borne traffic will give way to cheaper and more speedy conveyance by road, by rail, or by navigable river.—Nineteenth Century. the matter with your blood, try it—a single bottle will open your eyes, it is hou certificates and we don’t do it.

To produce anything like an approach to our now justly celebrated Blood Remedy, B. B. B., we make hold to claim the following special points of value and advantage over any other remedy on the market: 1. That it consists of the most valuable remedies known to the medical profession- 2. That the combination of the remedies has never been equaled in any medicine that has ever been known.. 3. Its beneficial results can be felt sooner than by the use of any other remedy. 4. It takes less quantity and less money to produce a cure than any other remedy. We are willing for B. B. B. to stand on its own merits, and as our words are unnecessary in proving its efficiency as a blood remedy, we simply invite a careful perusal of the following voluntary certificates from;the thousands who nave-tried it. They are eloquent tributes, and speak for themselves. To the skeptical, we would! further say: Inquire of your neighbor who has tried our great remedy.

I have been troubled with rheumatism for two years; had gotten so I could sc-arceiy walk, and was in pain nearly all the time. At night could not sieep for the excruciating din. Tlie bone in one of my legs was very much enlarged, and I feared that amputation ould be necessary. After trying many dii- ferent patent mc-dicines 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 plaint, advised the use of your medicine, and assured me of iris confidence in it as a cure for rheumatism. I at once purchased a bot tle, hoping it might relieveme, blit not. having much faith in it, or in anything else; but, thank God, I am very muen relieved, and I firmly believe I will get entirely well.
