Wayside Wells.
The caution uttered by Mr. <5.
F. Wingate, sanitary expert,
against indiscriminate drinking
from wayside *welis by bicyclists
or other travelers is-one that it
will be well to head. Mr. Wingate
affirms his positive knowledge of
several cases of typhoid fever
traced to this cause.. He poinfs
out the fact that a well may be
considered healthful by those
who habitually drink> from it,
and may in fact be so as far as
they are concerned, and yet be
dangeroufe to a stranger who takes
only a slight draft.—N. Y. Post.
ABOUT THE WEATHER
Mr. Wiugleby Explains to Georgia About
the Season*.
“You see, Georgie, ” said Mr. Win-
gleby, whose^ youthful son had asked
him hew we came to have different
kinds of weather, “the weather is put
tip in tin cans, a day’s weather to a
can, and usually they put up about a
year's supply ahead, enough to last
through a spring, summer, aftfcumtf and
winter. In filling the cans they sort it
all out as well as possible! ^Sometimes
when they* get a' can full there may be a
little left over, and whatever remains
in this way they throw into one lot.
When they’ve got pretty nearly all the
cans full and the regular stock of weath
er has run out, they fill up from that
lot of odds and ends. The cans so filled
contain what is called variable weather,
because it’s mixed, but most of the
weather they get pretty well sorted out
according to the season.
“When they’ve got all-the cans filled,
they stack ’em up where they’ll be
handy to get at, and there’s a man that
does nothing but open them. Every day
he cuts a .can and pours out the weather
for that day, and of course a great deal
depends upon him. Sometimes this man
gets careless and pulls down a lot of the
Wrong cans, getting, them, say, from the
July shelf in the month of April and
likely as not getting down a week’s
supply at once, so as to have them handy
on the opening table. Of course he dis
covers his mistake the first can happens*
but he is too lazy to put the rest back,
and so he keeps on then until'he has
opened them all, and that’s how it
comes about, as it sometimes^ does, that
we get a hot spell at a season* when we
ought to have nothing but cool weather.
“But of course those April cans are
not lost. They must be around some
where, and we get ’em later. Maybe
the man will sprinkle them along with
the hope that we Won’t notice them
much; bufr as likely as not he opens
them one after another together, maybe
af ter some terribly hot spell in July or
August, when they are sure to be a
blessed relief, and if he does this we are
pretty apt to forgive him his mistake in
April. ’’—Louisville. Courier-Journal.
but extremely good for the sufferer
from that harassing disease is Dr.
Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral*. No medi
cine can compare with this great
remedy in the prompt and perma
nent aid it gives in all bronchial
affections. It stops the cough,
soothes the irritated throat, and in
duces* refreshing sleep.
“I had a bronchial trouble of such a per
sistent and stubborn character that the doc
tor pronounced it incurable with ordinary
remedies, but recommended me to try Ayer’s
Cherry Pectoral. One bottle cured me.”

t Mr.J. T. Harris, Harris Springs, S. C. —
Dear Sir—I have used the Karris Lithia Spring Water for the past year in
f all renal troubles, with prompt and efficient effect.. In gouty and rheumatic
troubles I consider this water superior to the Buffalo Lithia Spring water. I
suffered from an attack of rheumatism for eight months, during which time I
drank the Buffalo Lithia Water constantly for four months without effect'. - In
November last I had a ease of Harris Lithia Water sentto me, and after drink
ing it for about three or four weeks, the pain and stiffness left my limbs and I
have not been troubled since. I feel that I can safely recommed the Harris
Lithia Water. Respectfully,

An extended elinical use of the Harris Lithia Water - prompts ine- to the
statement that I regard it as one of the best, if hot the best Lithia Water known

Its use in * the Rheumatic and Gouty Diseases afford me more comfort than
either the Buffalo or Londonderry Waters. Very truly yours, ’

The Face. 1 ,
Most girls are pleased to be
thought beautiful, nor is it dis
pleasing to a young man to find
he is spoken of as handsome. But
if we recall the faces that are
most pleasing to us we shall .com
monly find it is not fairness of
complexion or evenness of feature
that we admire, but a merry
smile, a kindly expression, a
frank, -honest lodk—it is really
the character of the. person ex-?
pressed in the face which attracts
us. But a face does not respond
to the effort of the moment. It
is a revelation of the habitual
attitude of the. souL Thoreau
says; “Any nobleness begins at
once to refine a man’s features,
any meanness or sensuality to
imbrute them.”

Something to Know.
, It mav be worth something to know
that the very best medicine for restor

healthy vigor is Electric Bitters. The
medicine t is purely vegetable, acts by
giving tone to the nerve centres in the
stomach, gently stimulates the Liver
and Kidneys; and aids these organs in
^throwing off impurities in the blood.
Electric Bitters improves the appetite,
aids digestion, and is pronounced by
those who have tried it as the very best
blood purifier and nerve tonic. Try it.

The waters of the Lithia Springs are odorless, free from color, with a pleas
ant saliney taste, rattier palatable. - When taken in considerable quantity they
do not nauseate, purge or produce -a/ay feeling of discomfort! *1 find from the
analysis of the waters they contain Chloride Sodium, Carb. Potash, Carb..Soda,
Carb. Lithia, Carb. Iron and Sulphate Magnesia. These waters act directly;
upon the mucous coating of the stomach and alimentary eanal, they are power
fully alternative and tonic. They are everything to inflamed or irritated sur 1
faces. They act upon the blood, changing it from acid to alkaline. In Indi
gestion, Catarrh of Stomach and ‘Gastralgia, supplemented with a proper diet
they are a certain cure. The action orpori the kidneys is marked. The Sodium,
Potash, Soda, Lithia, are the best solvents of .uric aeid, all calculi of an acid
character, whether litary or cystic, are steadily dissolved. I arrfconfluent that
the profession will find it very useful in cases where this class of water is re
quired. Respectfully, J. Q. Wj^bur, M. D.
