A Rather “Cloee" Kentuckian.
I heard of a Louisville man who
was pretty close, says a writer in
the Nashville Banner. There died
a preacher who was perhaps the
most popular man in Louisville.
His friends undertook to raise a
neat sum of money for his family,
and did raise a goodly sum.
Somehow they succeeded in get
tiug a contribution from this man
I am telling you about, but in
stead of giving cash be gave hiß
note at ninety days. The com
mittee tried to get him to pay
cash but he refused, and they left
with the note. There were two or
three other notes,but when the com
mittee explained to the givers that
they would like to make it a lump
cash contribution, they all except
this one,agreed. They went to him
and explained the situation. He de
dined to make it a cash sußcrip
tion, but finally, iu answer to the
committee’s repeated appeals, he
agreed to pay it iu cash if the
committee would discount the
note. Thiß they did, deducting
the bank discount for the time
the note had to run. He was a
very close man.
Remarkable Rescue.
Mrs. Mitchell Curtain, Plain
field, 111., makes the statement
that she caught cold, which set
tled on her lungs; she was treated
for a mouth by her family phy
sician, but grew worse. He told
her she was a hopeless victim of
consumption and that no medicine
could cure her. Her druggist sug
gested Dr. King’s New Discovery
for Consumption; she bought a bot
tie and to her delight found her
self benefited from first dose. She
continued its use and after taking
six bottles found herself sound and
well, now does her own housework
and is as well as she ever was.

Imprisoned In the Arctic.
Eight vessels of the American
wbftling fleet were caught in the
ice, near Point Barrow, in the fall
of 1897. Their stook of provis
ions was scanty, and it seemed
likely that officers and men would
starve before the summer thaw
released the craft. The govern
ment decided that the revenue
cutter Bear, which had just re
turned from her usual summer
trip to the Arctic, should attempt
to carry food to the whalejs; aud
on November 27th, eighteen days
after the deoision was reached,
she sailed on her errand of mercy.
It was plauned that the Bear
should make her way north, as far
as the ice would permit, writes
Lieut. E. P. Bertholf, U. S, N.,
in the New York Herald. Then
an overland party would travel by
dog-sleds to Cape Prince of Wales,
get the reindeer herd at that place
and drive it to Point Barrow, this
being the only means of taking
food to the imprisoned whalers
before ships could reach them in
the spring.
The Bear got as far as Nunivak
Island. The overland party, of
winch Lieutenant Bertholf was
one, sledded eight hundred miles
farther and collected a herd of
more than four hundred reindeer.
Then a distance of seven hundred
miles remained to be traveled.
All the crew of the Bear on this
relief expedition, which was ex
pected to involve unusual hard
ship and danger, were volunteers;
and now auotber volunteer was
fortunately found to take charge
of the reindeer. This was Mr.
Lopp, a missionary. He and his
herders drove the deer the saven
hundred miles, over snow and ice
and through a country almost un
known, and the herd was substan
tially intact when it reached Point
Barrow.
The shipwrecked sailors had not
yet begsn to suffer from lack of
food,but confinement and inaction
had told upon tn-m, and there
were two cases of scurvy. The
surgeon of the relief party soon
stamped out the disease, and then
established sanitary rules and
made the men take exercise. When
there was no work to be done,they
were obliged to go out and play
ball!
The reindeer tided the party
over the winter. The brave little
Bear was the first vessel to enter
the Arctic when the ice broke in
the summer, and she carried ad
ditional provisions and a supply
of clothing. It was from her that
the exiles learned—on July 15th
—that war had been declared ai.d
Manila had been taken.
On September 18th the Bear
landed ninety-one of the ship
wrecked men at Seattle, It had
been a successful expedition in ev
ery respect. Lieutenant Bertbolf
ascribes a large share of the credit
to the Eskimos and their dogs.
The dog-team used by Mr.Lopp,
the missionary, was, it seems, the
same that carried the overland par
ty on the deer-collecting journeys,
and Lit utenant Bertholf gives its
record as a typical instance of en
durance. “It traveled twenty-four
hundred miles,” he says, “drag
ging heavy loads most of the way,
over bad roads, having only a few
days’ rest at odd times. Only one
d >g was lost out of the team of
seven, and the other six were in
excellent health at the end of the
trip.
“It must be remembered that
most of the time, when traveling,
these dogs get but one meal a day
and a short meal at that. They
belong to the country, and are so
necessary to the Eskimos that it
seemed reasonable enough that
captains who bought them at
Point Barrow should pay a hun
dred dollars for each dog.”
Robbed the Grave.
A startling incident ts which
Mr. John Oliver, of Philadelphia,
was the subject, is narrat d by him
as follows: “I was in a most
dreadful condition. My skin was
almost yellow, eyes sunken,tongue
coated, pain continually iu back
and sides, no appetite, gradually
growing weaker day by day. Three
physicians had given me up. For
tunately a friend advised trying
Electric Bitters, and to my great
joy and surprise the first bottle
made a decided improvement. I
continued their use for three weeks
aud am now a well man. I know
they saved my life, and robbed the
grave of another victim.” No one
should fail to try them. Only 50c
per bottle at A. M. Winn & Son’s
Drug Store.
An English journal advocates as
a needed innovation the employ
ment ot automobile funeral cars,
insisting that the display of black
horses, plc.mee and other phylac
teries of unreasoning mourning is
but the survival of the antiquated
and barbarous custom of slaying
horses at the grave of their owner.

An African chief’s umbrella is
of greater importance than many

less than 25 feet in diameter, with

Too little blood in the brain is a
frequent cause of headache, and
may be recognized by the ache be
ing on top of the head, by constant
dizziness and by noises in the ears.
The best cure is a slight stimulant,
such as strong tea or coffee or hot

A cycling firm in Cologne has

By merely pressing a button at

Whtl Shall We Do.
A serious and dangerous disease pre
vails iu this country, dangerons because
so deceptive. It comes on so slowly yet
surely that it is often firmly seated before
we are aware of it.
The name of this disease which may be
divided into three distinct stages is, f irst,
Kidney trouble, indicated by pain in the
back, rheumatism, lumbago, frequent de
sire to urinate, often with aburning sensa
tion, the tlow-of urine being copious or scant
with strong odor.
If allowed to advance, this reaches the
Second stage, or Bladder trouble, with
heavy pain in the abdomen low down be
tween the navel and the water passage,
increasing desire to urinate, with scalding
sensation in passing small quantities be
ing passed with difficulty, sometimes
necessary to draw it with instruments. If
uric acid or gravel has formed, it| will
prove dangerous if neglected.
The Third stage is Bright's Disease
There is comfort in knowing that Dr.
Kilmer, the great kidney and bladder
I specialist, has discovered a Remedy fam-
I ous for its marvelous cures of the most
1 distressing cases and known as Dr. Kii
mer’s Swamp-Root.
It is sold bv all druggists.
As a proof of the wonderful virtues of
this great discovery, Swamp-Root, a sam-

Miss Alice Palmer, Wadly, Ga.,
writes : Have used Dr. M. A. Simmons
Liver Medicine 20 years. It is the
best remedy for Dyspepsia, Sick Head
ache, Sour Stomach, indigestion, Bil

used. In my opinion it is much bet

used.

take a few doses Dr. M. A. Simmons

any other medicine.

The Platform Woman,
“The platform woman never has
been a credit to, but ever a blot
upon, American womanhood. I
make this emphatic statement
from a personal knowledge of the
homes which these women leave
behind when they go to their meet
ing-,’' writes Edward Bok, in t! e
January Ladies’ Home Journal.
“I have seen the rooms of their
homes left in wild disorder; I have
seen their servants sitting in idle
ness with work on every hand to
do; I have seen the children neg
lected and left to their own de
vices; I have heard husbands
speak in derision of the motives of
their wives. No woman in a hap
py American home can ever afford
to listen to these parasites of their
sex. Fortunately, the platform
woman’s influence is on the wane.
She was never a power. She was
never even picturesque. Her worst
injury was wrought upon certain
weak women who for the time she
deluded. But even with them she
was soon regarded with wonder
rather than with interest; with
suspicion rather than with confi
dence. Less and less has she been
able to get listeners, and it is sig
nificant that in places where she
has spoken during the present sea
son she has not bean seen again.
The disappearance of the platform
woman is a case of a blot being
blotted out.
The Hindoos consider their dead
as sacred, and do not allow them
to be handled by alien hands, the
nearest male relative —a son, fath
er or brother—preparing the body
for burial, and if there be none of
these relatives, a son is adopted by
the family for the purpose.
Many a household is saddened
by death because of the failure
to keep on hand a safe and absol
utely certain :ure for croup such
as One Minute Cough cure. See
that your little ones are protected
against emergency. Bagwell Bros
of Lawrenceville, and Dr. Hinton
of Dacuia.

“Read not to Contradict and Refute,
Neither to Believe and Take for Granted;
But to Weigh and Consider.”
He who offers Two dollars for One comes properly under the category
of being either a rogue or a dolt, for he offers the impossible. It is manifestly
impossible to give more than is received, else one finds he has broken all laws
of common sense; yet this is often made the new catch-penny inducement to
intending piano purchasers. We often read in the daily papers statements of
offers made on pianos of high class, “containing every known inducement,” for
an exceedingly small sum of money and on ridiculously low monthly or quar
terly payments. The impossible is proffered, and he who does it knowingly i
falsities himself and assumes that the purchaser is incompetent or foolish, else
he could not be caught in such a net of fraud and deception. There is no oc- !
casion for deceit, yet the history of the piano trade shows it to be crowded
with miss-statements regarding the grades and prices. We have found it nec- '
essary in the management of our wholesale trade to withdraw the sale of our
pianos from some of our country dealers. In order to close the accounts with I
these particular dealers we have found it necessary to take from them a num- ;
ber of pianos of various makes and place them on our floors for sale, applying !
the proceeds of such sales to their accounts in order to settle the account with
them. We do not expect to give Two dollars fcr One. but we have in these I
instruments pianos of Standard makes, many of which could not be detected
from new’ instruments directly from the Factory when placed side by side with '
new pianos in our store, and which these dealers have been asking a reasonable
profit for, that will be offered during the next few days at very much lower j
prices than these goods have ever been sold. We shall make an extraordinary ,
effort to close out every instrument on our floors of this class between now and i
January first. In order to do this we find it necessary to offer these instru
ments at wholesale prices to dealers, or even less. We would advise any one :
who expects to purchase an instrument during the next few years to consult us
in regard to prices on these pianos at once. In addition to a large stock of the I
above described instruments, we have probably the most complete stock in the j
South of Everett and Harvard pianos which are perfectly new and direct 1
from our two Factories. These instruments are made in all of the fancy woods
and are unequaled in tone, quality and durability. Remember that the Everett *
piano is the only piano guaranteed for the entire lifetime of the instrument.
