Miss Mary Neville Wade died v m Louisville, Ky., a few weeks ago. She was well known here having formerly resided in Gainesville with her parents, Mr.and Mrs. E. F. Wade, both of whom have died since their removal from the city. The news of the young lady’s death will be hekrd with regret by her many Gainesyille fri,ends. The pall bearers at her sfqneral were her class mates in school*.^? Protect Our Food. The doctors inform us that alum is a poison, and that alum baking powders should be avoided because they make the food unwholesome. Prominent hy gienists, who have given the matter most study, regard these powders as an evil that should be suppressed by state action. In Minnesota and Wisconsin alum powders are .not permitted to be sold unless they are brafided to warn consumers of their true character, while in the District of Columbia the authori- Mr. Webb to go to Athens. The Athens Banner of last Sunday says: Mr. Hall, manager of the Inman Cotton Co., has appointed as the com pany’s cotton buyer for this section, Mr. Chas. S. Webb, of Gainesville. The new man, it is understood, is thorough ly posted on his business and in every way qualified for the place. He is married and will probably bring' his family here. Manager Hall, who formerly filled this position, has been promoted and now has entire charge of all appoint ments in this section of the country. Ninety Per C6nt. Of the people are affleted with some form of humor, and this Causes a vari ety of diseases. The reason why Hood’s Sarsaparilla cures when all others fail is found in the fact that it effectually expels the humor.

A meeting was called for the court house last night to hear the latest de velopments in' the proposed electric railroad, for Gainesville. Mi*. Evans has some new card's up his •sleeve and he proppses to let the people of Gaines ville know what they are. He states that he proposes to give Gainesville the advantage of what he has worked up. The electric line would be a great thing for Gainesville, many believe, and Mr. Evans has the best wishes of the citi zens in his enterprise. Jeel Ice! Buy your ice from the Gainesville Ice Company. - It is a home enterprise, em ploying homelabor; using home water, and making' $he purest, and\ best ice sold in Gainesville. Any quantity de livered to any part of the city at any time. Tons of ice manufactured every day. Telephone or send your orders to the Gainesville Ice Company for all the ice you need. John H« Marten, President and General Manager, adopted regulations to prohibit the use of alum in bread altogether. Are not the people of other states, as well as those of Minnesota and Wiscon- sin* entitled to warning of a danger which is apparently menacing them at dlose hand, and. is not the whole coun try entitled to absolute protection, as the people of the District of Columbia are protected, by. legislation Which is entirely prohibitive? Until we can have protection in the i form of a statue, how can our state boards of health, state analysts or food commissioners better serve the public than by publishing in the newspapers from time to time the names of the baking powders which they find to be made from alum? Meantime, it will aid the housewife in designating the alum powders to re member that all powders sold at twen- tv-five cents or less per pound are of this dangerous class. . Pore cream of tartar powders are usually sold at from forty-five to fifty cents a pound. Hood’s P£ls are the best family ca thartic and liver tonic. Gentle,’ relia ble, sure. Died In Monroe County.

Another great discovery has been made, and that too, by a lady in this country. ‘ ‘Disease fastened its clutches upon her and for seven years she with stood its severest tests, but her vital organs were undermined and death seemed imminent. For three months she coughed incessantly, and could hot sleep. 7 She finally discovered a way to recovery, by purchasing of us a bottle of Dr. King’s New Discovery for Con sumption, and was so much relieved on taking first dose, that she slept all night; and with two bottles, has jbeen absolutely 'cured.
