Really the two grand . virtues are so nearly allied and so closely interwoven in a true womanly heart, that she finds it hard indeed to determine how the one can exist without the o$her. And that she acts on this conception, witness the success ful efforts of a few Southern wo men in the purchase of Mt.Vernon and making the home and burial place of Washington, a Mecca for lover of human liberty. Gainesville. In- stead of blue points on the half shell, “possum and taters” came first’on the menu. This Georgia delicacy was cooked only as a Georgia cook knows how to do it. Oysters were afterwards served in any style called for, also turkey and cranberries, and other sub stantial too numerous to men tion. That t ie viands pleased the palates of the guests was evi denced by the fact that very little was left after all the patrons had been served. A snug sum was realized which would have been larger, had it not been thought by Georgia ne«ds the Australian ballot law. It would prove a bles sing to the state. Died In Atlanta.

Unhealthy urine from unhealthy, kidneys is the chief cause of bladder troubles. So the womb, like the blad der, was created for one purpose, and if not doctored too much is not liable to weakness or disease, except in rare cases. It is situated back of and very close to the bladder, therefore any pain, disease or inconvenience mani fested in the bladder or urinary pas sage is often, by mistake,, attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort. The error is easily made and may be easily avoided. To find opt correctly, set your urine aside for twenty four hours; a sediment or set tling indicates kidney or bladder trou ble. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great kidney, and bladder remedv is soon realized. If yon need a medicine you should have the best.
