Glycerine plays an important part in Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery in tho euro of indigestion, dyspepsia and weak stomach, attended bv" sour risings, heart-burn, foul breath, coated tongue, poor appetite, gnawing feeling in stom ach, biliousness and kindred derange ments of the stomach, liver and bowels. Besides curing all the above distressing ailments, the"Goiden Medical Discovery ’’ Is a specilic for all diseases of the mucous membranes, as catarrh, whether of tho nasal passages or of the stomach, bowels or pelvic organs. Even in its ulcerative stages it will yield to this sovereign rem edy if its use be persevered in. In Chronic Catarrh of the Nasal passages, it is well, while taking the "Golden Medical Dis covery” for the necessary constitutional treatment, to cleanse the passages freely two or three times a day with Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy. This thorough course pf treatment generally cures the worst cases. In coughs and hoarseness caused by bron chial, throat, and lung affections, except con sumption in its advanced stages, the "Golden Medieal Discovery” Is u most efficient rem edy. especially In those obstinate, hang-on coughs caused by irritation and congestion of the bronchial mucous membranes. The " Ills” covery ” Is not so good for acute coughs aris ing from sudden colds, nor must it be ex pected to cure consumption in its advanced stages—no medicine will do that—but for all the obstinate, chronic coughs, which. If neg lected. or badly treated, lead up to consump tion. it is the best medicine that can be taken. Cupid on The Air Line. By L.ITTELL M’CLUNG.

Bessie and Sam went up in it yesterday, and they thought It simply dandy,” The young man glanced ahead to where a crowd surrounded some taut guys that stretched up to a big balloon floating gracefully in the air 300 feet over their heads. A man stepped upon a platform and began to address his auditors in sten torian yet persunsive tones. “All right, Lila, we’ll see it through, too,” declared Grant Allen, and they hurried up close to the speaker. “This way, ladles and gentlemen!” ho cried. “Who’ll be the next to go up in the big gas bug? Here’s n glorious chance to see the world as a bird sees it! This balloon is ns safe as a trolley ear and safer. Experts say-so. “It is fastened securely to the earth, ladles and gentlemen, and stays up ten minutes with each ascension, giving you plenty of time to enjoy the mag nificent scenery. Come! Who'll be the next? The balloon holds only two atn time. Tickets are 50 cents apiece, two for a”— “I’ll take two tickets for the next trip,” said Grant, pushing forward with the necessary dollar in his hand. The man handed him the coupons to fame and stepped down from the plat form to engineer the next ascension. By turning a sort of handle and wheel device that resembled a wiud- lnss the balloon was towed back to Spalding FALL and WINTER ATHLETIC GOODS FOOT BALLS $1 to $5 - MURRAY’S Book Store. The Simple Life has for its basis PERFECT HEALTH. The clear brain, the healthy stomach, the bodily organs exercising in harmony, are tne first essentials of a Simple Life— A LIFE OF PEACE AND SATISFACTION. No one can know the pure delight of simple living whose nervous system is l.ept in a state of tension by Constipa- t on, Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Biliousness rnd other diseases due to inaction of the liver. The Simple Way to seek the Simple Lite is to seek the remedy for these con ditions. This remedy has been found in our great product— ST. JOSEPH’S Liver Regulator (In Both Liquid and Powdor Form.) It has made life brighter and happiness and peace possible when all was dark end distressed. It reaches the centers of life and purifies them. It encourages the liver, stomach and bowels to a freer and more natural activity. It is the Simple Way to a Simple Life ct Health, Peace, Contentment. Many persons attest this fact who have realized its truth by actual experience. earth. A young man and a girl stop ped out of the "basket” smiling tri umphantly, and Lila and Grant step ped In. The wheel to which the guide rope was attached began to turn again, and slowly the balloon rose above the fair grounds. When the rope gave out the basket was high enough for its oc cupants to see the level country for miles around. "Oh, isn't It just perfectly grand!" cooed the girl, clapping her hands and peering down at the upturned faces. A - Yes, it really Is,” he answered. “You feel apart from the world nml above everything in more senses than one. No wonder aeronautics are almost epi demic.” The great bag above them swung off in n semicircle and then stood motion less, the basket swinging gently to and fro. .Suddenly Lila glimpsed a thick cloud of dust whirling spiral fashion across the fair grounds. “What is nil that dust, Grant?” she nsked innocently. “Why, It’s a whirlwind,” he ex claimed, “and it big one at that, and, what’s more, It’s coming directly to ward us. If it strikes us we'll get a lively little swing around in the nlr. I hope it does!” But the girl seemed apprehensive and clung to his arm. Evidently his wish was about to be realized, for the whirlwind, gathering momentum ev- ery second, was bearing straight down on the guide ropes of the balloon, car rying with it n dozen or more hats it had gathered from the crowds. In another second It hit the balloon, whirling it around like a bubble in a hundred foot circle. Llln gnve a little shriek of fear, but Grant laughed. “Don’t be nervous,” he said. "We're getting a fine ride.” Then his face whitened as the sound of snapping ropes struck his ears. He glanced below to see uprooted pegs and stakes flying into the air. An other crack followed, and the balloon tore loose the last line that bound it to earth. For a second it paused; then, like a rocket, it shot eloudward several hun dred feet and, encountering "upper currents,” floated off across the fair grounds. Over the girl's face flushed on ex pression of terror, but by a superhu man effort Grant kept calm. Below they could hear the wild shouts of the people who were running in the direc tion the balloon bad taken. “Keep your nerve, Lila,” urged Grant quietly. “There is really no dan ger. Don't you see the gas can’t pos sibly get out of the bag, and we’ll be gin to go down when the wind slack ens a little.” But the wind continued strong, and the balloon declined to descend an inch. Neither did It rise. It simply floated along rapidly, but steadily, about six or seven hundred feet above the ground. In five minutes the fair inclosure was fading in the distance, and In another five minutes so was the town.

We’ve joined the first class aeronauts, and we're going on n tour of the world, .lust think how famous we’ll lu ff we discover the north pole.” This forced levity dispelled Lila’s terrified look, and gradually the color came back into her face. “I’m glad of one thing.” she said as her courage returned. “Papa, mamma and all the folks are up In the coun try today. Maybe they won’t hear of our aerial disappearance until we land somewhere and start back. They’d be frightened to death If they did.” “Don’t worry, Llln,” he answered, feeling now that there really was very little danger, after all. "Just look out over the country and let’s enjoy the trip. Maybe we won’t have another one like this soon.” Their airship was sailing beautifully now, flying over orchards and farm lands and throwing Into a state of In tense excitement hundreds of peaceful country folk. "It Is simply heavenly,” the girl sud denly exclaimed. “I'm not n bit afraid now, Grant, and 1 don't care much liow hard we sail. I've always longed for some exciting adventure, and sure ly this is It, and roil are with me. I’m so glad it’s you!” “Why are you glad it's me?” he de manded, seizing her hand and Ignoring the cries of the farm hands In the val ley below. “Oil, I don't know exactly, just be cause—Isn't that reason enough?” she questioned, her eyes a-twinkle. “Guess it Is, dear girl," he replied, and ho might have, but at that second the careless balloon careened sharply to starboard, reminding liim that be must keep the ship “trimmed” If he ever expected to land safely. They were now passing over a good sized town, and hundreds of people were out In the streets gazing sky ward. Of a sudden the wind died away, and the balloon sank within 200 feet of the housetops. Then, with out nn instant’s warning, there was a violent tug at the basket, and its flight ended withistartling abruptness. _ Grant felt Ills heart hob up in his throat, but lie peered over the side; then he drew brenth again. An Iron peg dangling from the end of one of the ropes had caught under the edge of a slate roof. “Well, Lila, we’re certainly anchored nt last!” he announced. “Guess they’ll be hauling us down pretty quick, for they’re running into tlie house.” Ills surmise was correct, for In a moment sevornl men climbed out on to the roof through the skylight and seiz ed the rope. Then hand over hand they began pulling down the balloon, while the street throngs shouted en thusiastically. In another moment Lila and Grant clambered out of the basket, to be greeted by n dozen men, who bom barded them with questions. They did not know which way to turn until a tall, mild eyed man in clerical garb made his way through the throng. “It’s my house that caught you,” he laughed. “We received a telephone message asking us to be on the lookout for a runaway balloon with two pas sengers which was drifting in our di rection, and we are more than glad to have been able to rescue both you and the balloon.” Rapid fire thanks and Introductions followed, with handshaking all around, and after the balloon was made fast to a chimney and a man sot to guard It the minister led the way to the skylight. In a few minutes the young aeronauts found themselves in a spacious parlor hemmed In by an animated, question ing group. “Lila,” whispered Grant nt the first opportunity. The girl Inclined her head. “Lila, don’t you think, dearie, It is sort of providential that—that we land ed at a minister’s house? Don’t you hope so, at any rate?” For a moment she was silent, tho color deepening in her cheek. “Don’t you?” he repeated eagerly. “No—that is, yes. Yes, I do, Grant, dear,” she whispered back, giving his arm a little corroborating squeeze. Five minutes later Grant Allen was hurrying up the street. On the corner he met a policeman. “Which way to the office of the marriage license clerk?” he nsked breathlessly. Weeping Marble. The activity of surrounding busi nesses may have jeopardized more than one portion of the sacred edifice of St. Bartholomew the Great, but it was not always safe even at the hands of its own congregation. In the sev enteenth century the parishioners, in their combined wisdom, thought the cloisters would look better If they were whitewashed and promptly pro ceeded to carry out their original Idea. They then found, however, that two marble statues, which may still be seen, did not show up well enough ugalnst the white background, so in order to remedy this defect they had the images tarred! The same people wanted to get rid of the fourteenth century baptismal font In the church on the ground that It was too old for use. The most curious monument is that in “weeping marble” to Edward Cooke, scholar and physician, with the Inscription: Unsluice, ye briny Hoods. What! Can ye keep Your eyes from teares and see the marble weep ? Burst out for shame, or if ye find no vent For teares yet stay and see the stones re lent. For a long time the marble “wept" without restraint, but since the church has been reroofed and heated its pe culiarity of “relenting” through damp has ceased to exhibit Itself.—London Globe.

R. and J. Pennell. If you owe for this paper settle up A Misapprehension. Judge Hough, of the United States Circuit, Court, was discussing at a legal dinner in New York a misapprehended law. ‘‘This law is perhaps obscurely word ed,” he said “and that, perhaps is why it is so totally misapprehended. The m'sipprehension of this law re minds me of a Western millionaire. He came East for his wife’s sake, and took a Fifth avenue house. There the lady plunged, as madly as society would let her into the social amusements of the season. On towards tho season’s end she fell ill, and a physician, after examining her, reported to her husband. “ ‘Well, Doc, what’s the verdict?” the Western millionaire inquired anx iously. “ ‘Your wife, sir’, the doctor an swered, ‘is suffering, I regret to say, from functional derangement.’ "The millionaire’s eyes filled with tears. ” ‘Doc,’ he said, ‘I told her she’d go under if she didn’t stop gadding about to all them swell functions, and now, hy gee ! she’s deranged. Is she liable to be violent?’ ” What Others Say About It. Many of the best people in Tennessee and adjoining States recommend St. Joseph’s Liver Regulator as being a splendid laxative and liver medicine. Its occasional use will keep the system in good condition, thus assisting nature to establish good health. It will re move the bile and effete matter from the system, and, as a rule, Nature “will do the rest.” Try it. It is well indorsed. It is made in both liquid and powders. Druggists and dealers sell it, liquid, 50 cents a bottle; powders, in tin boxes, 26 cents a box. John D. Rockefeller is said to be a billionaire. What is a billionaire? No man is able to count it. You will count 160 or 170 a minute. But let us suppose you go up as high as 200 a minute, hour after hour. _ At that rate you would count 12,000 an hour, 288,000 a day, or 105,120,000 a year. To count a billion would require a person to count 200 a minute for a period of 9,152 years, 342 days, five hours and twenty minutes, providing he should count continuously. But suppose we allow the dounter twelve hours daily for rest, eating and sleeping, then he would need 19,025 years, 319 hours and forty minutes in which to complete the task. Advice to the Aged.
