Railroad Engineer Testifies to Benefits Received From D?. B Yes' Remedies. ORIGIN OF SLANG- James "Whitcomb Riley’s “The First Peach.” T here is no more responsible position on eartb than that of a railroad engin eer. On his steady nerves, clear brain, bright eye and perfect self command, de pend the safety of the train and the live3 of its passengers. Dr. Miles* Nervine and other remedies are especially adapted to keeping the nerves steady, the brain clear and the mental faculties unimpaired. Engineer F. W. McCoy, formerly of 1323 Broafiv.v.y, Council Bluffs, but now residing -at 3111 Humboldt St., Denver, writes that he “suffered for years from constipation, caus ing sink, nervous and bilious headaches and was fully restored to health by Dr. Mile&* Nerve & .iver? 11s. I heartily recommend Dr. Miles’ Remedies.” Dr. Miles’ Remedies are sold by ail drug gists under a positive guarantee, first bottle benefits cr money re funded.

Lane removed one of the farmer’s best and ablest friends and one of the South's most distinguished citizens. He left the practice of law to devote all his time and energies to agricultural interests and to the subject of farming in every possi ble direction. He became com- misicner of agriculture in 1891, and wt? also a prominent member of the Farmers’ Alliance. At the time cf his death he was the pres ident of Jie Southern Cotton Growers’ Association, and it is be lieved the work he did in connec tion with that association led to the stroke of paralysis that result ed in his untimely death. • Mr. Lane was not 50 years*old at the time of his death, but he had giyvo twenty years of his life to the uplifting of agriculture and Newspaper Laws. Dr. Tockerman, editor of The Poem Workman, Cleveland, has taken some pains to collect and compile , the decisions of the United States Some ladies were discussing the i Court on this subject, and gives to origin of certain slang phrases, | the Washsngton Post as the result and one of the group who never J 0 f his ’investigations, the follow- used any but the most perfect jing: English, said that she had become j 1. Subscribers "who do not give quite interested in tracing some of j express notice to the contrary are these. She said that with the aid considered as wishing to renew of some adepts in slauology she their subscription, had succeeded in finding some sim- 9. If subscribers order the dis- ple or remote reason for the exis tence of some of these current ex pressions, but said that no ques tioning had ever found any origin for “You’re talking through your hat!” It is said that the slang of to-day becomes the language of to-morrow, and if this is true, (let us hope it is not,) time is not wasted in keeping in hearing—not speaking—distance of some strong phrases. Apropos of this we won- *der if Mr. Riley’s poem has any responsibility for that pet compli ment of the up-to-date youth— “She’s a peach!” Certainly if such is the case, the expression has at least a beautiful origin, as the following dainty verses prove: the first peach. The ripest peach is the highest on the tree; And so her love beyond the reach of me Is dearest in my sight. Sweet breeze, bow , Her heart down to me, where I worship now.

We often hear of the wonderful imaginary power of the poet'a mind, and we are prepared to be lieve in it to any degree when we remember that the author of “Home, Sweet Home,” never had he improvement of the material! a home, and that James U hitcomo sondition of the South.—Augusta j Riley's wife lived only in continuance of their periodical, the publisher may continue to send them until all arrearages are paid. 3. If subscribers neglect or re fuse to take their periodicals from the postoffice to which they are directed, they are responsible un til they have settled their bills, and ordered them discontinued. 4. If the subscribers move to other places without informing the publisher, and the papers are sent to the former address, they are held responsible. 5. The courts have decided that refusing to take periodicals from the office, or removing and leaving them uncalled for, is prima facie evidence of intentional fraud. 6. If subscribers pay in advance they are bound to give notice at the end of the time, if they don't wish to continue taking it, other wise the publisher is authorized to send it, and the subscriber will be held responsible until an express notice, with payment of all arrear age is sent to the publisher. The latest postal laws are such that newspaper publishers can arrest anyone for fraud who takes a paper and refuses to pay for it. Under this law the man who al lows his subscription to run along for some time unpaid and then orders it discontinued or orders the postmaster to mark it “Re fused,” and have a postal card sent notifying the publisher, leaves himself liable to arrest and fine, the same as for theft. following this reeej Prof. D.

Wonders Never Cease. No one need suffer the tortures of rheumatism, because that modern lini ment, Salvation Oil, positively cures it. “I was a great sufferer from sciatic rheumatism, and the best of doctors attended me without relief. I com menced using Salvation Oil, and two bottles helped me wonderfully. It certainly has worked wonders with me. Airs E. J. Phelps, Box 28, Enfield, Conn.’- Salvation Oil is for sale by all dealers for 25 cts. Take no substitute. Now we hear of the formation of a great furniture trust. There is needed no further evidence of the rapacious instincts of the trusts when they are cruel enough to put up the present prices on furniture. Hei ll.tU .
