Yellow Jaundice Cured.
Suffering humanity should be' sup
plied with every means possible for i*~
relief. It is with pleasure we publish
the follswing: “This is to certify that
I was a terrible sufferer from Yellow
Jaundice*for over six months, and w as
treated by some of the best physicians
in'our city and all to no avail. Dr
Bell, our druggist, recommended
EJectrie Bitters; and after taking two
bottles, I was entirely cured. I now
take great pleasure in' recommendmg
them to any person suffering from this
terrible malady. I am gratefully
yours,, M. A. Hogarty, Lexington

Sample Carriers.
The Philadelphia Record says: “A pe
culiar trade followed by a number of
men who haunt the big hotels is that of*
sample carrier. The natty drummers
who visit the city are far above ’the
work of lugging around their sometimes
heavy samples, and so there has arisen
a class of men who make a living by
hanging around the hotels waiting an
opportunity to carry sample cases
Sometimes these cases aie very valu
able, as when they contain samples of
jewelry. It is not an infrequent sight to
see a spruce young fellow, followed by
a shabby;individual carrying two black
cases, enter the portals of one of the big
hostelries. If *the couple were traced
farther it would be seen that the big
hotel safe was the objective point. Some
of these sample carriers have their reg
ular patrons, who look for them on ev
ery visit” 9
Proper Length of tiie Foot.
A perfectly formed foot should, ac
cording to anatomists, be as long as
that bone in the forearm which extends
from the elbow to the joint of the wrist
This seems to be abnormally long in a
tall person, but is the measurement
taken by artists. Of course, arms, are
sometimes out of proportion, being far
too short for the general height, but it
is rare that an arm is too long for the
stature of the person. .>
The smoke upon your altar dies, f.
The-flowers decay,
The goddess of your sacrifice
Has flown away. *
What profit, then, to sing or slay
The sacrifice from day to day?
“We know the shrine is void,” they said
‘‘The goddess flown—
Yet wreaths are on the altar laid—
The altar stone
Is black with fumes of sacrifice,
Albeit she had fled our eyes.
“For it may be, if still we-sing
And tend the shrine,
Some deity on wandering .wing
May there incline,
And finding all in order meet
Stay while we worship at her feet.”
—Rudyard Kipling.
Many persons have their good
day and their bad day. Others
are about half sick all the time.
They have headache, backache,
and are restless and nervous.
Food does not taste good, and
the digestion is poor; the skin
is dry and sallow and disfigured
with pimples or eruptions;
sleep brings no rest and work
is a burden.
What is the cause of all this?
Impure blood.
And the remedy?
WHEN FIRE BREAKS OUT
Keep Cool and Remember and . Fol
low These Instructions.
In case of fire, if the burning articles
are at once splashed and sprayed with
a solution of salt and nitrate of am
monia an incombustible coating is
formed. This is a preparation which
can be made at home at a trifling cost
and should be kept on hand. Dissolve
20 pounds of common salt and ten
pounds of nitrate of ammonia in seven
gallons of water. Pour this into quart
bottles of thin glass and fire gapnades
are at hand ready for use. These bot
tles must be tightly corked and sealed
to prevent ‘evaporation, and in case cf
fire they must be thrown near the
flames, so as to break and liberate the
gas contained. At least two dozen of
these bottles should be ready for an
emergency.
In this connection it is well to re
member that water on burning oil scat
ters the flame, but that flour will ex
tinguish it. Salt thrown upon a fire if
the chimney is burning will help to
deaden the blaze. If a fire once gets
under headway and prompt exit be
comes a necessity, a silk handkerchief
dipped in water and wrapped about the
mouth and nostrils will prevent suffoca
tion from smoke; failing this, a piece
of wet flannel will answer.

Mr. Blickens (yawning)—That so?
Mrs. Blickens—Well, why don’t you

you think.

Too Well Imitated.

to rival the famous Stradivarius instru

and did so effectually that experts pro

The ” successful

George Gemunder* a famous violin mak
er of New York. His remarkable ability
as a preparer of violins was known to
many a distinguished player, such as

success at the Paris exposition of Eiffel

Air Castles.
. Living in the future is living in an
air castle. The man who says he will
lead a newer and a better life tomorrow,
who promises great things for the fu
ture and does nothing in the present to
make that future possible, is living in
a|n air castle. In his arrogance he is at
tempting to turn water into wine, to
.have harvest without seedtime, to have
an end without a beginning.
If we wbuld make our lives grand
and noble, solid and impregnable, we
must forsake air castles of dreaming'
for strongholds of doing. Let us think!
little of the future except to determine
our course and to prepare for that fu
ture by making each separate day the 1
best and truest that we can. Let us live
up to the fullness of our possibility!

The Season Opens.
The initial game of base-ball for this
season wh» played at the depot grounds

was between the Flowery Branch club
and a selected nine of Gainesville boys.
The ninth inning -.resulted in a tie
game bnt at the close of : the tenth the
Score stood 25 to 30 ih favor of Flowery
Branch. The opponents were pretty
heavy for the home boys to cope with
and there had been very little practise.
Gainesville. boys went to Flowery
Branch yesterday to play the second
game, the result of which has not yet
been learned.
