UAUE The greatest care should be given to mUOI TIULCn I UHOLO tin it any little sore, pimple or scratch which shows no disposition to heal under ordin- ADDEADEII AT EIQQT AQ ary treatment. No one can tell how soon these ArrCHnEU A I lino I Aw will develop into Cancer of the worst type. So many people die from Cancer simply be iirnr piupi EC cause they do not know just what the disease ia; ItlEllE rimlLEOi they naturally turn themselves over to the doctor*, and are forced to submit to a cruel and dangerous operation—the only treatment which the doctors know for Cancer. The disease promptly returns, however, and is even more violent and destructive than before. Cancer is a deadly poison in the blood, and an operation, plaster, or other external treatment can have no effect whatever upon it. The cure must oome from within—the last vestige of poison must be eradicated. eMr. Wm Walpole, of Walshtown, S. D., says: “A little blotch about the size of a pea came under my left eye. gradually growing larger, from whioh shooting pains at intervals ran in all directions. I became greatly alarmed and consulted a good doctor, who pronounced it Cancer, and advised that it be cut out, but this X could not con sent to. I read in my local paper of a cure effected by j- . t M|| a SS. S.. and decided to try it. It acted like a charm, the ( NJmxSu n| Cancer becoming at first irritated, and then discharging very freely. This gradually grew less and then disoon- Sflßjji tinued altogether, leaving a small scab which soon drop rStW ped off and now only a healthy little scar remains where H what threatened to destroy my life once held full sway.” BISsBsSX mKIKNK Positively the only cure for Cancer is Swift’s Specific— S. S. 8. FOR THE BLOOD —because it is the only remedy whioh can go deep enough to reach the root of the disease and force it out of the system permanently. A surgical operation does not reach the blood—the real seat of the disease—because the blood can not be cut away. Insist upon S. 8. 8.; nothing can take its place. S. S.

AMBROSE & CO. Lawrenceville, Ga. THE NEWS-HERALD. A Word About Wheat. Mr James Barrett, of Augusta, in writing an article on the sub ject of wheat culture in Georgia and the south, has the following to say: A few words on wheat growing and its results so the farmer limy act intelligently and not be disap pointed with failure or elated over success. It is a well established fact at our experimental station that it takes five years to prove or disprove an agricultural problem. Mr. Brown, who recently presided over the IVheat Growers’ Conven tion, in Macon, Ga., told me the wheat that ho made cost him $1.60 per bushel. This illus trates that we only hear of suc cess, and not failure; in other words, the half of the truth; which Tennyson says is the black est of lies. I made on a little over an acre of rich land, heavily fertilizsd with wood ashes, 4$ bushels. I expected to make at least 25 bushels. Wheat is har vested every month in the year, as follows: Argentine in Janu ary, Bengal and Nubia, -February; India, March: Asia Minor, April; Mexico, May: Southern United States, June; South Russia, July; England, Germany, Northern United States, August; Russia, Sweden, Scotland, Manitoba, Sep tember; Siberia, Norway, Octo ber; South Africa, Northern Australia, November; Southern Australia, December. Probably the most productive wheat-grow ing country in the world per acre is Huugary. “I saw wheat 72 inches in height, with compact heads, ten inches long and nearly an inch thick. Some fields average nearly 70 bushels to the acre, the stalks standing thick as grass.” How dose this compare with what we consider a large yield of 40 bushels per acre? Our section is not a wheat-producing country, being deficient ill the constituents in the soil and cli mate necessary to produce the grain. It should be the duty of every farmer to make something to eat before he makes anything to sell, therefore, he should plant enough wheat to supply his home and farm wants, but no more, for results are too uncertain to war rant the growing of wheat as a money crop below the mountains in Georgia and South Carolina. Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear 't here is only one way tooure Deafness and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inilained con dition of the mucous lining: of the Eu strachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is en tirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inflamation can be tak en out and this tube restored to its nor mal condition, hearing will be de stroyed forever. Nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is noth ing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot becured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J.

Weighed A Thousand Founds, When it comes to large men the Democrat is able to put Miles Darden, who lived in Henderson county, against any of them. He was born in Northampton county, N. C., Nov. 7, 1799; was married to Mary Jenkins in 1820. By this marriage he had seven children, and by his second marriage four children. He moved from North Carolina to west Tennessee in 1829 and died six miles west of Lexington in 1857. He was 7 feet 6 inches high, and in 1845 weighed over 1,000 pounds. In 1889 his coat was buttoned around three men, each weighing over 200 pounds, and they walked across tl e public square at Lexington, Tenn. In 1850 it required 13£ yards of cloth one yard wide to make him a coat. His coffin was 8 feet long, 85 inches deep, 32 inches across the breast, 18 inches across the head and 14 inches across the feet. It took twenty four yards of black velvet to cover it. His hat measured 27 inches around the crown and is now in possession of the State Historical Society at Nashville. He was a Mason and belonged to the Baptist church.—Carroll (Tenn.) Demo crat.

The Dominion Company Srd Floor Caxton Bldg., Chicago.—May 2s— lew. LAWRENCEVILLE, GEORGIA, FRIDAY, AUGUST 18,1899. A Subject of tiie iueea. William Waldorf Astor has lost the respect of the people of this country and hasn’t gained that of the people of England by becom ing a citizen of the latter country. Americans regard him as a snob and Englishmen will speak of him with feelings akin to contemn*. They have very little use for a man who is locking in patriotism. Therefore, while h) may receive courteous treatment in England, mainly because of his wealth, it can he safely said that he will never be cordially received by the best people. He will be made to feel that there is something with held from him which his wealth cannot buy. His silly attempt to show in his own paper that his ancestors were Spanish noblemen will have the effect to still further lower him in the estimation of all people, iu both this country and England, whose good opinion is worth having. The understanding is that three things influenced him to become a subject of the Queen. One was the desire to get closer to titled people, another was the disposi tion of newspapers of New Yolk city to treat him with less respect than he thought a man of his wealth and family was entitled to, and the other was the amount of his assessment for personal proper ty. He thought that enough was paid on his real estate to relieve him from any assessment on per sonal property. The authorities, however, had a different opinion of the matter. Last year he was assessed on only $2,000,000 of per sonal property, which was sß|ooo,- 000 less than the amount on which he was assessed the previous year. He didn’t want to pay the tax however, and came all the way from London to have the amount reduced. His failure so angered him apparently that he returned 10 England and became a British subject. If he should ever want to become an American citizen again he would have to go through the same process that an immi grant does. There has been some question as to whether ho could continue to hold his vast real estate inter ests iu New York, He looked after that before he renounced his allegiance to this country. He can still retain possession of hie property. There ought to be a law, however, making the taxes against a man who renounces his country heavier than against citi zens, who have to perform all the obligations imposed by citizenship. —Savannah News.

The Seven Ages of Kan Man born of woman is small cabbage and a few in a hill. 'ln infancy he is full of colic, paregor ic and catnip tea, and in old age he is full of cuss words and rheu matism. In his youth his mater nal ancestor taketh him across her knee and extends to him all the sympathy in her nature with the heel end of her slipper, and when he is a grown man he dodgeth the tax collector and the sheriff the rest of his life. He spreadeth like a camphor tree, and geteth a political job, and his friends cling to him like sandspurs to your pant legs. He swelleth with vanity, and cutteth frozen water for a time, but is melted as wax in a fire at the next convention and cast in the ash barrel where his name is Dennis. Out of office, his friends forget to cling to him like a vine around a rotten stump, and he soon goeth busted, which makes him lie down in the cow pasture where the red bugs get in his hair and beneath his under clothing. He diet!) out of the world and goeth to a place too warm to wear clothes. Verily, the last end of that man is worse than the first, and the band play eth a “Hot Time.” Frkk Ok charge.

Every thoughtful man whose observation of men and things is valuable, every man who has been obliged to rely upon himself for advancement, whose aspiration has been high enough and his will strong enough to advance himself; ovary man who recognizes the lad der by which he climbed and is not ashamed to acknowledge he was once at the bottom rung, has a good word for the home paper, the country newspaper, which is the barometer of business and the artery through which it is increas ed and kept alive. The late Judge David Duvis, of the United Statns supreme court, expressed this opinion after he had won his high est honors, says the Logansport Journal: “Each year every local paper gives from SSOO to SI,OOO in free lines for the benefit of the com munity in which it is located. No other paper can or will do this. The editor, in proportion to his means,does more for his town than any other man, and with all his fairness, man with man, he ought to be supported, not because you may like him or admire his writ ing, but because the local news paper is the best advertisement a town can have. It may not be crowded with great thoughts hut financially it is more of a benefit than both teacher and preacher. Today the editors of local papers do more for less pay than any other men on earth. Patronize your local paper, not as charity, but as an investment.” A Thousand Tonuoks Could not express file rapture of Annie E. Springer, of 1125 Howard st., Philadelphia, Penn., when she found that Dr. Kings New Discovery for Consumption had completely cured her of a hacking cough that for many years had made life a burden.

New York's Cemeteries- There are no less than forty eight cemeteries in New York and its vicinity where lie buried the bones of 4,000,000 men, women and children. Over 18,000 are buried annufilly in Calvery, about 5,000 iu Potter’s Field, 4,500 in Green wood, 8,000 in Holy Cross, 7,500 iu the Lutherus, about 2,000 in Mouut Olivet, over 1,000 in Most Holy Trinity, over 1,800 in Wood lawn, about 1,800 iu Cypress Hills and nearly 4,000 in the Ever greens. The combined area of our cemeteries is 8,000 acres. The to tal acreage of our parks is only 6,000. By adopting the practice of cremation we might increase the park area, as well as .mprove the water supply.—New York Press. August Flower. ‘lt is a surprising fact,” says Prof. Houton, “that in my travels in all parts of the world, for the last ten years, I nave met more people having used Green’s August Flower than any other remedy, for dyspepsia, deranged liver and stomach, and for constipation. 1 And for tourists and salesman, or for persons filling office positions, where headacoes and general bad feelings from irregular habits exist, that Green’s August Flower is a grand rem edy.

The ap pointment of enumerators will hardly be made before next win ter, or at least before the sub-di visions of the territory has been made. Robbed the Grave. A startling incident of which Mr. John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the subject, is narrated Oy him as follows: “1 was in a most dreadful condition. My skin was almost yellow,eyes srunk en, tongue coated, pain continually in back and sides, no appetite—gradually growing weaker day by day. Three physicians had given me up. Fortu nately, a friend advised trying -Elec tric Bitters:' and to my great joy and surprise, the first bottle made a decided improvement. I continued their use for three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they savedmy life, and robbed the grave of another victim.” No one should fail to try them. Only 60cts., guaranteed, at A. M. Winn & Son’s Drugstore. Why He Was Silent A physician describes a remark able case of a patient’s confidence in his medical adviser: “When a student in London I had a patient, an Irishman, with a broken leg. When the plaster bandage was removed and a light er one put in its place I noticed that one of the pins went in with great difficulty, and I could not understand it. A week afterward,- on removing this pin, I found it had stuck hard ahd fast, and I was forced to remove it with the forceps. What was my astonish- ment to find that the pin had been run through the skin twice, instead of through the cloth. “ ‘Why, Pat,' said I, ‘didn’t you know that pin was sticking in you ?’ “ ‘To he sure 1 did,’ replied Pat, ‘but 1 thought you knowed your business, so I hilt my tongue.’ ” J. V. Hobbs, M. 1)., Port Valley Ga., says: “1 have been practicing medi cine twenty-five years and know piles to be one of the most, difficult of dis eases to cure, hut have known DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve to cure numbers of cases amt do not hesitate to reccom mend it.” I'e Hire y < u gel “Di itt’s.” there are injurious counterfeits on sale.

The Salvation Army iu New York has just secured a notable recruit, in the person of Miss Cora Van Norden, daughter of the president of the National Bank of North America, who is a million aire. Seven or eight years ago an elder daughter of Mr. Van Nor den joined the Salvationists, and remains with the army. Both daughters, it is said, were well known in New York and Newport society, but preferred to give up fashion and society and engage in the work of lifting up men and women from the slums.

An item recently floating about in the newspapers was to the ef fect that Mr. Bryan had talked himself into a fortune of $200,000, since his nomination. That he has grown wealthy is very poin tedly disproved by the returns which he has made to the tax col lector at Lincoln, and which is as follows: Three horses, S6O; three carriages, $80; four watches, clocks, etc., $25; diamonds and jewelry, SSO; one Milliard table, $5; household or office furniture, $250; other property required to be listed, including money and credits, $2,500.

It appears that in Mississippi recently a negro was lynched for a crime that was never committed. The citizens of the community, however, bring logic to bear in justification of the action of the mob. They say that if such a crime had been committed the negro lynched would have been the guilty party, therefore they saved this possible victim from the annoyance that would have been suffered and sent the man honco with one less blot upon his soul.
