Hood’s Sarsaparilla Cured Them — Now Perfectly Well. “ My trouble began with a pain in my left thigh. I labored op for several months when I had to give up.* In a short time I was completely prostrated.

I re membered having once used Hood’s Sar saparilla for blood poisoning with good results and I determined to resort to it at tbis time.

At the regular meeting of the county commisioners next Monday a resolu tion will be adopted cutting off all out side pensions for paupers and providing* for their care at the paupers farm. This will be done in order to concen trate all the pauper business at the farm, and it is believed that this will mean a saving of perhaps a thousand dollars or more to the county every year. The members of the board unan imously favor this method, and will earnestly work to carry out the sense of the resolution. This means that the paupers must go to the county home to be cared for, and that money will not be given them unless they do. The Waverly 1898 Model.

Gody’s Magazine for this month has a picture of Mr. Ellison Van Hoose and the following sketch of him * 1 “if young singer who is likely to be heard abroad before long, and whose career is nothing short of meteoric, is Mr. Ellison Van Hoose, at present one of the leading tenors of the Damrosch- Ellis Grand Opera Company. His in stantaneous prominence is all the stronger in .view of the fact that he has never studied in Europe. It leads one to hope that the day may come when musical audiences will actually feel the sentiment called patriotism. •‘Mr. Van Hoose was born 28 years ago in Murfreesboro, Tenn. He was considered a remarkable boy alto, and in 1894 came to New York. He studied with Mr. Perry Avelirr an'd Mr. Orton Bradley, ancl his first public work was as a soloist in various New York church choirs. He sang recently in New York at the Oratorio society's production of ‘•The Messiah,” and has appeared at a few concerts besides his operatic per formances. His voice is of uneven beauty, but will doubtless equalize uftder usag-e. Its equality reminds one of Jean de Reszke’s in the humanizing t veil of the tones.” Mr. D. P. Jennings spent a day or two in Atlanta this week. ts the One True Blood Purifier. All druggists. §1; Six for §5. C. I.

Estes entertained the faculty of the Seminary at a six o'clock dinner at their beautiful home on Bradford street. It was an old time informal occasion where all formality was dis pensed with, and where those present met upon grounds of friendship, pure and simple. The dinner was elegant, just such an one as Mrs. Estes knows how to prepare, and was thoroughly enjoyed by her guests. During the evening Prof. Wallace, Mrs. Childs and Miss Wheeler charmed their hearers with the sweetest violin, mandolin and vocal music, and the time passed all too swiftly in delightful social enjoy ment. J udg-e • and Mrs. Estes have given the Seminary many evidences of their sincere friendship for the insti tution, and they may rest assured that their hospitality was never more thor oughly enjoyed or appreciated than upon this occasion. Some of the flicul- ty were compelled to decline the invi tation, for it would never do to leave one hundred and twenty-five girls all alone in the Seminary. Those present were: Prof. Pearce and wife, Rev. A. Van Hoose, Prof. Wallace, Miss Evans, Mrs. Rhodes, Mrs. Merritt, Miss Mer ritt, Mrs. Tisinger, Mrs. Child, Miss Wheeler, Miss Collins, Miss Lynch, Miss Harris and Prof. Van Hoose. Rev. J. M. White attended services at the First Methodist church last Sunday and delighted his congregation by de livering a happy talk. He intended preaching a regular sermon but was not able to do so.
