WHO HE IS.
Clipping From the Cherokee
Advance.
“Canton had a distinguished
Litor last week in the person .of
| r J. Harvey Moore, the great eye,
ijose and throat doctor of
lujinta. He came on professional
Ljef-H, m*d by invitation, to at-
the quarterly session of the
[Vrth Georgia Medical Associa-
which met in Canton last
ktnrdiiy. Hr. Moore is not wholly
[acquainted with the people of
okee, as lie has treated and is
m treating many of them for
r®e ailment for which he is es
pecially, prepared. Besides Dr.
(oor Q has relatives in the county,
ad bis grandfather died and is
uried here. His grandfather was
[r. Thornton Moore, w ho it will
ill be remembered, was bitten by
horse in Canton about twelve
ears ago, from which he died. Dr.
ioore is a native of North Geor-
8, and hie people were among
jemosfc prominent, wealthy and
Inential in this section before
war. His maternal grand
er, Wm. R. Utter, built the
pike road across the Blue
pife mountains, and paternal
st grandfather served through
Revoluntionary war, being
1 a citizen of South Carolina,
rtly after the late war hie
mts moved north, and Dr.
Moore was educated in the best
institutions of Philadelphia and
New York. He practiced his pro
fession as specialist with remark
able success in Northeastern Penn
sylvania, but a few years ago
moved back to Georgia, and has
since built up a very enviable prac
tice throughout the South. He is
winning friends all over the state
as he becomes better known.
While here last Saturday, as the
guest of the North Georgia Medical
Association, he performed an oper
ation on the eyes which were
badiv crossed. The operation was
skillfully performed and the phy
sicians were very much interested
in his mode. The president stated
to the association that he had seen
the operation performed many
times by distinguished eye surge
ons, but that he had never seen it
so skillfully done as it was by Dr.
Moore. Little Charley is getting
along finely. Others in the county
have had their eyes treated by Dr.
Moore, among them Rev.* A. B.
Vaughn and Eugene McCanless, of
Canton. While in Canton Dr.
Moore was the guest of Dr. Coleman
and Rev. A. B. Vaughn, and also
visited his kinsman, Mr. Anthony
Fair, and other friends near
Buffington.”—Cherokee Advance.
WHAT HE CAN DO,
From the Swainsboro Times.
“Dr. Moore is a man of whom
Georgia can well be proud as he
illustrates what a poor farmer boy
can do with perseverance.
“He was born on a North Georgia
farm and he earned ^his own way
and placed himself where he is to
day, at the head of his profession.
“He has never been content to
follow in the old ruts, but has
originated new methods of which
we mention three.
CROSS EYES.
“His method of straightening
cross eyes is absolutely painless,
and he does not use ether or chlo
roform, does not tie up the eyes or
confine the patient indoors or in
a dark room for a moment.
“Miss Addie Chapman, of Grass-
dale, Ga., was badly cross eyed.
About two years ago she went to
Atlanta and Dr. Moore straight
ened them without hurting her
any.
granulated eye lids.
“Another advancing stride he
has made is his treatment for
granulated sore eyes without caus
tic or the knife.”
“Judge F. B. Duke, of Cloud
Chief, Oklahoma, says: ‘I was
practically blind three yo&rs, with
granulated sofe eyes. The best
oculists I could find gave me very
little relief. I w r ent to Dr. J.
Harvey Moore. In two weeks I
could see to write, something I had
not done in three years. In an
other week I could read writing.
I have resumed my law practice.
Dr. Moore’s treatment of granula
tions without caustics is a wonder
ful discovery that is proving a
boon to humanity, and is making
a world-wide reputation for Dr.
Moore.’ Judge Duke is a brother
of Mr. Tobias Duke, of Pendergrass
Ga. and of Mr. Toney Duke, the
Atlanta gum manufacturer.”
CATARRH.
“Another idea of Dr. Moore’s is
his treatment of catarrh, which
combines local and constitutional
treatment. His theory is that
catarrh is not only a local trouble
but is also constitutional. The
same mucous membrane lining the
nose, where catarrh first ^starts,
extends all through the body, and
if the disease is not checked it will
extend down through the throat,
bronchial tubes and lungs and in
to the stomache, liver, kidneys,
bladder and bowels.
“Rev. J. H. Hunter, of Barnes-
ville, Ga., says: ‘I went under Dr.
Moore’s treatment for catarrh a
few months ago, and was in bad
'shape. The catarrh had gotten
down into my stomach and caused
me to have dyspepsia. It gives me
pleasure to say that I am cured
of the dyspepsia and the catarrh in
my head is nearly gone.’ ”
WHAT HE HAS DONE.
From Various Papers and People.
A GEORGIA CLERGYMAN.
“Rev. A B. Vaughn, of Canton,
Ga., sa^s: ‘Mv eyes have been de
fective all my life. A number of
years ago I underwent an operation
at the hands of a most skillful
oculist, and suffered the intensest
pain, without obtaining the
hoped-for relief. March 26, 1894,
I went to Dr. J. Harvey Moore
and had him operate on them,
and can say from actual experience
that Dr. Moore’s operation is abso
lutely painless. The result of Dr.
Moore’s operation is most gratify
ing. It has not only made great
improvement in the appearance of
my eyes, but the improvement in
my vision is wonderful. I can
now see to read Greek at night;
I could never do so before. It is
wonderful, and I have Dr. J.
Harvey Moore to thank for it. I
know 7 from experience that he
possesses wonderful skill. I re
gard him a Christian gentleman
unsurpassed in his line.’”—Atlan
ta Journal.
A GEORGIA EDITOR.
“Mr. W. C. Clayton, of Jasper,
Ga., say9: ‘I had a discharging
ear for thirty-five years, I had
tried medicines and physicians in
vain. My case had been pro
nounced hopeless by the most re
nowned specialists in the South.
I went to Dr. J. Harvey Moore,
and in less than than three months
I w r as entirely cured. I also had
catarrh very badly, and that is
.entirely gone. My friends look
upon it as a miracle.’”
BAD CASE OF CATARRH CURED.
“Rev. Chas. Mikell, of Belleville,
Ga., had suffered with catarrh of
the head, ear, throat, stomach and
bladder. He had not been able
breathe through his nose for many
years. He had roaring in his ears
and was practially deaf. He had
a chronic cough which troubled
him greatly. .He had distress in
his stomach after eating and fre
quently spit up his food. His
bladder was so affected he had to
get up several times in the night.
Now' he breathes frequently
through his, nose, his cough is
gone, his hearing is fully restored
and the roaring has ceased, he has
no more trouble w r ith his stomach
or bladder and has gained about
twenty pounds.
•
“Mr. Mikell thought he* had
piles but it was catarrh of the
bowels and Dr. Moore’s treatment
cured that trouble also.

Bis Old California Sweetheart Loyal to
the General,
When General William Tecnmaeh
Sherman wan a raw anbaltern in the
United States army, without fame ox
laurels and little apparent hope of win
ning either, relates the Ohieago Chron
icle, he wooed and won a beautiful
Spanish girl then living in Monterey,
Cal. Dona Maria Ygnacia Bonifacic
fell beneath the ardent glances of the
lank, ungainly youth just as the flag oi
the sister republic was lowered before
the triumphant army led by Scott. To
day she is still true to her early Iovg
and unaware of the fame and death of
her lover.
California' was then a part of the
Mexican republic. Sherman, like many
another, was. forced to make war against
the land of the Montezmmas. In the
closing year of the straggle, when Cali
fornia was occupied and became a part
of the United States, Sherman was as
signed to duty on the coast. Here he
met the fair dona, lost his heart to her
and won hers in return. She was a
member of an old aristocratic Spanish
family, and the subaltern was congratu
lated upon his luck. To emphasize his
devotion, the young officer in 1855
planted a rose tree before the entrance
to the home of his beloved.
Then Game the inevitable misunder
standing whioh accompanies every ro
mance. The lovers disagreed. Sherman
left the army and went east to take up
the law. He sever afterward saw his
sweetheart, nor did she ever permit bis
name to be mentioned in her hearing.
She speaks Spanish only, never reads a
newspaper, and while the nation has
sung the praises of the hero of Atlanta
the Spanish maiden knows nothing of
him from the day he left her. She still,
although long past her youth, waits for
the return of the man whose image has
never left her heart.
Bnt in spite of the separation of the
sweethearts that rose tree throve and
waxed great. Now its branches have
spread until they form a beautiful bow
er over the doorway of the old Spanish
mansion. Here the dona, sole survivor
of her raoe, sits and waits, silent and
alone, for the return of him who can
not come. Under the bower of roses due
to her lover’s care she stood reoently
and permitted her portrait to be taken.
She is still very beautiful in spite of the
ravages of time and secret sorrow.
Smoking in Germany is not a pas
time. It is an art, and an art that has
grouped about it a respectable number
of industries. Every smoker carries a
cigar case, a cigar olipper, matchbox
and usually a little leather box for the
cigar tips. The tips are collected by a
society organized for the purpose, in
each province and are sold to the manu
facturer for ike benefit of charitable in
stitutions.
DAREDEVIL HEROISM.
Brave Rescue of General Payne by Some
Negro Volunteers.
“The most daredevil piece of hero
ism I ever saw was by some negroes be
fore Fort Pillow, when I was a prison
er inside the fort and General Payne
was lying in front of it with his leg
shot off,” was the way Charles Cotton
of Company C of the One Hundred and
Sixty-first New York infantry began a
story of valiant rescue that he told to
some negro veterans.
“General Payne’s leg had been shot
off in the first charge, * * he continued,
“and he was lying hidden behind some
rocks in front of the fort, when his
troops were forming plans to rescue
him. . The scathing fire from the fort
swept that spot, and no officer dared to
command any of his men to go to cer
tain death in what looked like a vain
attempt to rescue their chief.
“While the men were deliberating a
negro stepped up and said, ‘We might
as well run our chances now as any oth
er time, and 1 for one will make the
attempt. * He was a handsome fellow,
and the spirit he displayed was at once
equaled by that of 11 other negroes,
who stepped oat and volunteered their
services. A stretcher was brought, and
four of them started, but had gone only
a few yards when every one was shot
dead. A moment after four others of
the volunteers rushed out, and, picking
up the stretcher, carried it a few yards
farther, when they, too, were killed.
The four who were left went ahead as
if nothing had happened, and two of
them came back alive with the general,
while the other two were left dead at
the pile of rocks where General Payne
bad been lying. General Payne is still
living, and, 1 am told, the two noble
fellows who rescued him have Wanted
for nothing ever since. ”—Buffalo Ex

Tha Womsa In WUM.
Here is one of Nugent Robinson’*
reminiscences of Wilkie Collins: “1
was walking one day toward Hampstead
heath with Wilkie Collins. It was rain
ing. Wilkie carried his white umbrella.
Presently wh sighted near a hedge a
very pretty woman dressed in white and
accompanied by a child. Wilkie stepped
up "to her and proffered his umbrella.
She promptly accepted it, and I said to
him as she disappeared, ’That’s the last
you’ll see of it.’ He laughed and insist
ed that it would be all right He lived
in Warn pole street and had given the
young woman his address. Well, time
went by until one day we two were
again strolling, this time in Piccadilly.
Suddenly a hansom was halted along
side of us so quickly that the horse was
drawn back on his haunches and that
same woman leaned ont and handed
Wilkie bis umbrella. I discreetly walked
on. That was the original of ‘The Wo
man In White, ’ and she became Wil
kie's housekeeper. ”
HOW SHE DID IT.
Girl CuhUr’s Mind Reading’ M«tho4> of
Making- Change.
The girl cashier of a Madison street
restaurant was for three weeks believed
by one of the customers to be a lineal
descendant of Morgan le Fay and to
have some of thefrmily traits of Heller,
the second sight magician, for she
seemed to know by intuition or instinct
or something else what was the price of
the meal he had’consumed and also just
the amount of money in his hand when
he approached to pay. He first noticed
that when he presented a 35 cent check
she immediately laid upon the rubber
mat a dime and a nickel which she had
been holding for change.
“How, ” this man inquired of him
self, “did she know that-15 cents would
be the correct changer There was no
earthly way for her to tell what money
I was going to offer her either. How
did she come to have the exact change
ready without a second's delay or with
out having to go to the cash register for
it?” He could not answer to his own
satisfaction.
The next day he bought a 45 cent
meal, and she promptly laid a uickle
before him, the 5 cent piece being the
only coin she held in her hand. It was
the correct amount, as he gave her a
half dollar. He experimented several
times afterward and at last appealed to
her for information.
“Why,” ehe said, “didn’t you ever
notice the tint of your check?’’ When I
see you coming 20 . feet away, I know
by the slate colored check that you hava
eaten 20 cents’ worth. If yon have a
red ticket, that warns me that you want
to pay for a two bit meal. A blue one
means 30 cents. This yellow one is, of
course, for 40 cents. The afnounfc is
printed upon the check, but the color
is my warning. ”
“Yes,” said the other, somewhat re
lieved, “that seems easy. But still my
money is not of different colors. How
do you know what .change to have
ready? That’s mind reading, sure. ”
“Not at all. When you come with a
quarter ticket, you will usually giv3 me
the exaot change or half a dollar. I
have a quarter ready for you in my left
hand in case you give me a half. Sup
pose your ticket is a 35 cent cne; you’ll
either give me the correct amount or a
half dollar—or perhaps a dollar. With
15 cents in one hand and 50 cents in
the other I’m ready for any demonstra
tion almost. "—-Chicago Record.
A Woman's W»y.
“Forty cents for a telegram, please,”
said the dentist’s attendant. “There,*’
said the dentist, as he opened and read
the document, “that’s from one of my
patients, breaking an appointment, and
sbe makes me pay for the telegram.
Would any one but a woman do that?
That goes on her bill.”—New York
Timas.
