If LION COpFEE were common, ordinary stuff, coffee drinkers would’nt insist on hav

In every package of LION COFFEE you will find a fully illustrated and descriptive

A beat clnb was recently organised in
Albany and the olnb will soon have a

The members of the club are edthuB-

large enough to oarry twelve people
comfortably and will have a speed of
twelve miles per hour. It will bo found

putties to and from the many boautiful
pioniu grounds on tho river and it will

and other game abound in seasou.
This will bo the first pleasure boat of
the kind ever on the river here, and
,it is believed that others will be brought

A Yount Chicken Adopts s New snd Peculiar
Diet.
We lutve heard of billy goats that ate
tin oans and of ostriches that ate glass,
eto., but one of the most peculiar diets
that lias yet come within our knowledge
was discovered iu the earn yard of Mr.
J G. LaRoquu yesterday afternoon,
Mrs. LaRo qne worn out aud Beleoted
a nice, fat, frying-size chicken to cook
for suppor. She picked out about the
spryest "fryer" iu the yard, caught it
and wrung off its heud. As Mrs.
LaRoquo wrung tho fowl's ueok some
thing Btuuk her iu the hand, aud after
the death writhlugs of the chicken had
oeaaod she Instituted an examination.
Ou feeliuglthabroken ond of the neok
she again felt the sharp point of what
appeared to l e a pin. Sho out open the
fowl's neok aud found^a largo size hat
pin lodged there. The hat pin had u
white gloss head, and this tho ohloken
had swaIlowud|a'id it was found in the
gizzard, while the long steel pin stuok
np in tbe neok. The pin was' bent to
the ourve of the nook, aud its appear-
anoe indloated|that it had been in the
fowl’s ueokjforlsomo time.
Mr. LaRoque (says the ohlolten was
fat aud tender aud nioe as ho ever ate.
Several reports are corrent as to why
the ohloken adopted this peculiar diet.
Some have suggested that tho ohloken
had a "rubber neok" and swallowed the
long steel pin for u prop. Others say
that it swallowed the pin to strengthen
its pinions. As tho ohloken was dead,
fried and eaton, we oonld not seoure
either a oonfirmatlon or a denial Qf these
reports.

Why the Line Was Endless.
The following story Is told in Tit Bits
of a yonng Irish sailor:
“After pulling in forty to fifty fath
oms of line, which put his patience se
verely to proof, as well as every muscle
of his arms, he mnttered to himself, hut
loud enough to ho overheard by un offi
oer:
"Sure, it’s as long as today and to
morrow ! It’s a good week's work for
any five mou iu tho ship! Bud luck to
it! What! More of it yit? Gob, mnr-
ther. The soy’s mighty deep, to be
sure I"
After contiuuiug in a similar strain,
aud conceiving there was little proba
bility of the completion of his labor, he
suddenly stopped short aud looking up
to the "officer ou the watoh, he ex
claimed :
■Bad luok to me, sor, if I don't be
lieve somebody's out off the other end

THE DREAD DISEASE.
DR. KOCH THROWS NEW UOHT ON TU-
BEKCULOSIS.
Soms Surprising Statements Made to En*
gllsh Medical Men by the Qerman
Specialist—Heredity Not Important—Be
lieves the Disease Can Be Stamped Out
by Isolation of Consumption.
Anything new about the dread dis-
easo, consumption, is always interest
ing, especially if it holds out any hope
that medical scienco is about to evolve a
specitlo remedy or treatment for it.
A London dispatch savs that a feature
of last Monday's session of the British
Congress on Tuberculosis was the paper
of Dr. Robert Kooh, the emiuent Ger
man specialist. A big gathering of
niedioal men listened to the reading of
Dr. Koch's paper in St. James Hall.
During his address Dr. Kooh said his
experiments had satisfied him that hu
man tuberculosis and bovine tu erou-
losis were radically different diseases,
and that he had amply demonstrated
cattle could not be infeotod with human
tuberculosis. The counter-proposition
that human beings were not liablo to
infection from bovine tuberculosis,
was harder to prove, the doctor
said, owing to the difficulty of ex
perimenting upon human subjects,
but that personally he was satisfied such
was the case, aud he recited at length
post-mortem evidence supporting this
belief. Dr. Koch said if this point were
oonoeded, it remained to determine the
chief source of contuglou. Continuing,
the doctor said that human immunity
to boviue infection disposod of the be
lief of infection through dairy product*
and he considered this source of danger
so slight as to be unworthy of precau
tionary measures.
THE SPUTUM THE CHIEF DANGER.
Heredity was also an unimportant
factor in the^ transmission of tubercu
losis, though the contrary had long
been believed. Dr. Koch said the chief
source of ;danger of the contagion lay
iu the sputum of consumptives
aud that there should be a law
preventing the consumptive from
strewing contagion about him. Several
methods to this end were available,
said the doctor, the surest of which be
ing isolation iu sanitariums. This was
impracticable, but he strongly urged
tbe establishment of special consump
tive hospitals and the obligatory notifi
cation of tho authorities of the existence
of the disease, the disinfection of
their quarters whenever consumptives
e-haugd their residence, aud the dissem
ination of information to the people
concerning the true nature of consump
tion to aid in avoiding and combatting at.
Dr. Koch closed his remarks express
ing his belief that the ultimate stamp
ing oat of tuberculosis was possible.
Not many people in Albany realize
what a big thing the pou ltry show which
is to be held in Albany under the au
spices of the Southwest Georgia Poul
try and Pet Stock Association next fall
will be. The shows poultry will be held
in connection with the Hay Day Carnival
and Street Fair from November 10th to
21st, inclusive.
Tho Southern Poultry Journal for
July lias the following to say of the Al
bany show:
“The great Southwest Georgia poul
try dhow, to be held at Alhauy, Ga ,
November 10-21, will bo jadged by N.
L. Hutchison and Dr. 8. T. Lea This
show will be held in the best section of
that state, aud the city ot Albany has
perhaps more wide-awake business fan
ciers than any one of its size in it. The
breeders of that and adjoining states
should show their appreciation of tho
pluck -011(1 energy of these fanciers by
showing with them. They are not only
liboral in offering prizes, but have
employed two good judges, and men
who command good salaries.
“It would be well for other Southern
states to notice that Georgia is holding
some exoellent shows. The Atlanta
people had over *0,000 entries last year,
and the Albany people exppot fully 51,000
in Novembor. It should be borne in
mind that Albany is a city of only about
10,000 inhabitants. Still they offer lib
eral premiums and employ two judges
that command as high salaries as any in
the South. It takes nothing more or
less than the plnok and energy displaye d
by her fanciers to make a good show,
bringing it down to the Southwest.
Texas hns nineteen towns as large and
larger than Albany, Gn., that have
never had a poultry show, and two cities
twice an large that-cannot support one,
Besides that, there has been only one
show held in the stato that employed
two judges. Louisiana has three cities
besides New Orleans as large and
larger than Albany, and last year
and many proceeding years, has
had bat three shows. They were held
in New Orleans, and out of season.
Arkansas has three towns^larger than
Albany that have never had a show.
But while the fanciers of that State
have economized too much on judges,
taking everything into consideration,
they have done well. Still, if the State
show will employ two judges it will be
better attonded. Mississippi is not
doing what ought to be done, not by
great odds. Except Texas, our mailing
list would indicate that there are more
fanciers in that state than in any other
Southern State, and she is behind
Louisiana, Arkansas and Alabama iu
number of shows. There is no ques
tioning the Southern Interstate show in
Atlanta being the largest held in
the South. And with proper manage
meut there is no questioning the Texas
State Fair being able to top them all.
But it will never do so until it changes
bauds, and is managed by men who
have a better opl.ilou of poultry breed
ers, broad-gauged enough to understand
the importance of poultry culture, con
sider the interest of the faciers and the
upbuilding of the industry iu their great
State. If one of three cities in Texas
oould muster as many broad-gauged
men as oan Albany, Ga., we would have
annually a show that could hardly be
topped in America ”

Through the pores of the skin many poisons are
absorbed into the blood, deranging the circulation
and affecting the constitution as quickly and
* seriously as those generated within the system. Just
&js undur the skin are innumerable hair-like blood
vessels, and connecting these with the skin,
are millions of small tubes or glands, through
which the poisoh is conveyed to the blood sys
tem. During the spring and summer, while
the skin is most active and the pores well
open, we are much more liable to be affected by Poison Ouk aud Ivy and other*
dangerous plants. Workers in brass, copper, lead and zinc have their,health im
paired and the blood supply poisoned through the absorption of fine particles of
these metals and the acids used in polishing and cleaning them. Inhaling the
fumes of lea* l give painters thut pallid, waxy appearance of the skin. Barber’s ltch
is another disease that reaches tlie blood through the skin, aud is a most obstinate
one when ii becomes firmly fixed in the system. After the poison has reached the
blood und been disseminated throughout the system it is too late to resort to local
application? In many cases the blood is affected simultaneously with the appear
ance of the rash or eruption on the skin, aud all efforts should be directed to the
purification and building up of the blood. Ugly eruptions and sores will continue
to break out in spite of salves, washes, soaps or other external treatment.
S. S. S. is especially recommended for poisons of this character. So com
pletely docs it destroy the effects of the Oak and Ivy that there is no possibility of
113 reappearance, and it is equally as efficacious in brass or lead poisoning or Bar
ber’s It.ih ; building up and purifying the blood and driving out of the circulation
impurities ot every kind, and removing every blemish, 6ore or eruption from the
skin. There is no substitute for S. S. S. ,* it is tbe only purely vegetable blood
purifier known, aud the safest and best in all constitutional or blood diseases.
