CRAWFORD & CO., Wholesale and Retail Druggists and Seedsmen, 12 College Avenue, Athens, Ga. What it Mean To the man or woman who baa never been ill, the word ,•health” is meaningless. But to the one who has suff- red and de spaired, health appears as a priceless boon. To the thousands of unfortunate women who are suffering from some of the many forms of weaknesses or irregularities pe culiar to their sex, Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription bolds forth the promise ot a speedy restoration of this “priceless boon. “ Professor Gauthier, of Paris, states that certain vital processes of the body develop putrefying substances in the tissues, which if not speedily eliminated, produce disease. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla effects the removal ol these substances, and thereby preserves health. STORMED THE SALOON. Lima, Oct. 10—Several weeks ago the neighboring town of Lafayette passed a prohibition ordinance and all of the saloons were closed. A few days ago a saloon-keeper of this city went to Lafayette and opened a place. He was waited upon by a committee who informed him that his business was not wanted there, He continued and the town officials got an injunction to stop him. The judge decided in his favor and he resumed business with more open ness than ever. Early yesterday morning his saloon was bombarded by a crowd of several hundred persons. They came supplied with stones and sledge hammers and, surrounding the place, commenced to storm it. The windows and doors were broken and the crowd rushed in. The bar was battered down, mirror broken, heads of barrels knocked in and contents wasted. The place was almost tom down and everything ruined. Robby Barna Understood It. “Many and sharp the numerous ilia Inwoven in our Lame, More pointed still we make ourselves U<*grei, remorse and shame.” Among the most dangerous, aa well as vexing of ills “inwoven with our frame,” are Consumption, Asthma, Bronchitis, colds and lung troubles generally. How ever, the timely use of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery takes away their fear ful consequences, but which neglected, leaves “regret, remorse and shame.” But you need not be ashamed to ask for lhe “Discovery,” as it has become a standard r< medy, found at al! the drugstores, where thousands call for it every day, and where it is recogn zed as the leading medicine for all lung and throat affections.

Ty Ty, Oct. 10. —A fatal difficulty took place at Moultrie in Colquitt county Monday evening, in which James Gay lost his life at the hands of James Eady. The particulars are about as follows as related to your correspondent by an eye-wit ness. Eady was about mounting his horse with the purpose of going home when Gay approached him, charging him with circulating some remarks that were going the rounds in the neighborhood. Hot words passed between them and Gay struck Eady. Eady then plunged his knife into Gay’s left breast just above the nipple severing, as the attending physician said, the main artery leading from the heart to the brain and producing death almost instantly.

Philadelphia, Oct. 9—The official test of the dynamite guns of the cruiser Vesuvius took place to day, and was entirely satisfactory In distance firing projectiles were thrown from 100 to 150 yards beyond the required mile. In the test for rapidity of firing the contract required that the load ing and working machinery, pumps and reservoir, should enable fifteen shots to be taken in thirty minutes five shots from each gun. In the test fifteen iron plugs weighing about 525 pounds each were fired, and from the moment the loading of the first gun was commenced until the last shot had been fired 17 min utes and a fraction elapsed. The air compressors were not working during the time although it would hav« been allowable, and yet at the end of the firing the reservoir contained enough air to fire eight more shots at the mile range. Each of the fifteen shots was fired with a volume of air which had sufficed to carry service shells one mile. IDyapepNia Makes the lives of many people miserable, and often leads to seif-destruction.

There is ■ only one way to cure Deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is ' caused by an inflamed condition of the mucus lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inflaination can be taken out and this tube restored to its nor mal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucus surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by Catarrh) that we can not by taking Haii’s Catarrh Cure. Send for ciiculars, free. F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, O.

For indigesticu, topid liver, and sick headache there is nothing supe rior. Leading physicians recommend them.

Their yay is increased as their term of service grows longer and at the end of ten years they re ceive $36 and $39 a month. The proposed bill will provide that they shall receive S3O, S4O and SSO a month respectively. The main reason given for this increase is that it would serve to decrease the num ber of desertions and inspire enlisted men with a better spirit.
