Of Smoking Affected
My Heart
So I Had To Sit Up
To Breathe.
Dr. Miles* Heart Cure
Cured Me.
There is nothing that has a more delete:-
ious effect upon the cardiac or heart nerves
than the excessive use of tobacco. Pain and
tenderness around the heart, an oppressive
.
sufferer has to sit up in bed to breathe are
the most common symptoms of a weak heart.
Smokers who leel these symptoms and who
do not understand their meaning should be
warned in time, by the following experience:
“I was greatly troubled with an affection
of the heart, due I think to excessive smoking,
On writing to you for advice 1 was directed
to begin a course of treatment whicli in
cluded Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure, Dr. Miles’
Nervine and Nqfve and Liver Pills, together
.witlr-bathing, etc. I faithfully followed the'
directions given and am pleased to say that
my cure is complete and permanent. Be
fore beginning the use of your remedies I
was so nervous I could not keep my hands
still and suffered greatly from severe pains
around the heart. Many times at night I
would be forced to assume a sitting posture
to get my breath, and for the time being it
would seem as though my heart had stopped
beatiiig. From the splendid results achieved
in my case I can cheerfully recommend Dr,
'Miles’ Heart Cure, Restorative Nervine and
other remedies to all sufferers from heart or
nervous troubles."—Yours truly, Elijah

,THE ATLANTA
Groom Was Too Literal.
There is a young clergyman
near Hagerstown, Md., says the
Baltimore Sun, who might be ex
cused for saying “the guileless
ness of some rural gentry passeth
all understanding.” He would
probably deny it should you ask
him, but he would not deny the
following story, told by a rela
tive :
‘‘A young couple with matri
monial intent, fresh from the
green fields of their rural homes,
went recently to the parsonage of
the clergyman in question. The
nuptial knot was tied. In the
pause which followed the newly
made Benedict looked even more
embarrassed than before. He fish
ed about in his trousers’ pocket
as if looking for something.
“What’s the price?” he finally
blurted out. ,
“The state allows me a dollar,”
said the olergymau, “but, — ”
and paused. Home pauses are
inure eloquent than words. Evi
dently this was not.
“Well,” finally remarked the
groom as he handed the astonish
ed divine a quarter, “if the state
allows you a dollar, take this,
and the job will have netted you
a dollar aud a quarter. Good
day.”
The collection of a tweuty-mil-
lion dollar thank-offering is nob
the only thing in which the Meth
odists of the United States are
ahead of other denominations.Ac
cording to a table complied by the
Chioago Tribune, the Methodists
have “landed” niori men in gu
bernatorial chairs in this country
during the past few years than
any other denomination, there
being no less than eight states
with Methodist Governors at the
present time. This list leads off
with Gov. “Dick” Yates of Illi
nois and closes up with Gov.
Sayers of Texas, all of the eight
being Republicans except Sayers
and Gov. Dochery of Missouri.
The Presbyterians come next,
with a score of seven Governors to
their credit, Two Democrats and
five Republicans, this number in
cluding Gov. Odell. The Baptists
come third, with six executives,
all Democrats, which would' indi
cate that water and the Demo
cratic party are better friends
than some have been led to sup
pose. But perhaps a better ex
planation would be found in the
fact that all the states with Bap
tist Governors are in the extreme
south. The Quakers are credited
with one Governor, John Hunn of
Delaware; the Episcopalians with
four, and the Unitarians with one.
Twelve Governors are entered in
the list as men with no professed
c h uroh co n n ecti ons.—Lesl ie ’ s
Weekly.
If 0,11 negroes were like William
Huokaby of Terrell county, who
died recently aud was buried with
honors that were paid by whites
and blacks alike, white men act
ing as his pall bearers, there
would be no negro problem. He
was honest and industrious and
thrifty. He was respected by his
own peopile and the whites'. He
had done nothing to incur any
other feeling than respect. When
the race of the negro, who thinks
more of his people’s alleged
wrongs than he ’does * of working
for the maintaiuance of himself
and his family and who spends
more time in discussing his woes
than he does in attending to his
daily work, is run he can receive
no such honors from one race or
the other as were accorded Huck
abv.—Savannah News.

SALMON CATCHING CENTERS.
The six chief salmon catching
centers on the Pacific coast, in the
order of the quantity of fish packed,
are Alaska, Puget sound (British
Columbia), the Columbia river, the
Oregon coast, the Washington coast
and the California rivers. About
four-fifths of the entire catch was
in American waters, one-fifth in
Canadian. For their extent and im
portance—the annual product now
being worth over $20,000,000, em
ploying, an army of men and mil
lions of capital—the Pacific salmon
fisheries are of surprisingly recent
development. Like every industry
in the northwest, they have seem
ingly sprung into importance over
night—yesterday nothing, today a
business of worldwide recognition.
—Ray Stannard Baker in Century.
The Japanese Emperor’s Sanctity.
A monarch, or, rather, chief of
state, who has never had his por
trait impressed upon the coinage or
printed on the stamps of his coun
try is his imperial majesty Mutsu
Hito, emperor of Japan. This ab
stention is not due to any clause in
the constitution, but rather to the
fact that in 'Japan the emperor is
far too sacred a person to have ms
portrait scattered about wholesale.
In Japan the portrait of the em
peror is considered quite ‘ a sacred
possession, and it seems very strange
to Japanese gentlemen visiting Eu
rope to see the way in which real
portraits of the reigning sovereigns
are offered for sale. In Japan crude
drawings from imagination are sold,
but photographs not at all.
A Lost Opportunity.
John Fox, Jr., author and strum-
mer on the gentle guitar, is also an
athlete of no mean prowess, though
he does not look it. One day, on a
‘train, with true Kentucky chivalry
he called a drummer down for an
noying a lady. The drummer re
sented the interference. "For half
a cent,” he said menacingly, "I
would break your face.”
Fox looked him good and hard in
the eye, went down into his pocket,
cable out with a cent and, proffering
it to the offender, said: “There’s a
cent. Break my face if you want
to and keep the change.”
Mr. Fox’s face remained intact.—
Collier’s Weekly.
Japan’s Highest Peak.
Fuji is no longer the highest
mountain in the Japanese empire.
Since the acquisition of Formosa
Mount Morrison claims that honor,
its height being 13,880 feet. The
same island has what are probably
the highest sea cliffs in the world.
They attain heights of 5,000 to
6.000 feet. Camphor furnishes one
of the main sources of income. The
trees which yield it are unfortunate
ly within the domains of the aborig
ines, with the result that the cam
phor industry, head hunting and
butchery still go hand in hand. The
chief victims appear to be the Chi
nese, the Japanese being rarely at
tacked.
Washing Away the World.
An interesting calculation has
been made public by the French
Academy of Sciences. It is to the
effect that, taking into considera
tion the wear and tear on the solid
land by the ocean lashing, river ero
sion and wind and weather, the
world will by the end of the year
4.500.000 be completely washed
away, and the ocean will roll over
the present foundations of our great
continents.
Saves Two From Death.
“Our little daughter had an al
most fatal attack of whooping
cough and bronchitis,” writes
Mrs. W. K. Havilaud, of Ar-
monk N. Y., “but, when all oth
er remedies failed, we saved her
life with Dr. King’s New Discov
ery. Our niece, who had Con
sumption in an advanced stage,
also used this wonderful medi-
eiue and today she is perfectly
well.” Desperate throat and lung
diseases yield to Dr. King’s New

cine on earth. Infallible for

A Unique Light.
The Germans have placed on the
island of Helgoland, in the North
sea, a unique light, the greatest in
the world, which has for its base the
parabolic mirror of Schuckert. Ev
ery five seconds it flashes a light of
30,000,000 candle power over the
whole horizon to a distance of twen
ty-five miles during one-tenth of a
second.
He .Learned a Great Truth.
It is said of John Wesley that
he once said to Mistress Wesley:
“Why do you tell that child the
same thing over and over again?”
“John Wesley, because once tell
ing is not enough.” It is for this
same reason that you are told
again and again that Chamber
lain’s Cough Remedy cures colds
and grip; that it counteracts any
tendency of these diseases to re
sult in pneumonia, and that it is
pleasant and safe to take. For
