IN MEMOUIUM.
After a five week’s illness of
typhoid fever. Miss Mattie, the
10-year old daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. George Giles, died at her
home near Auburn, on November
30. She bore her suffering with
out a murmur and met the sum
mons with a serene faith in Him
who is over aii and above all. .
Self-respect, meekness and mod
esty were the dominating elements
that made her truly a strong, deep
and earnest character. Her gen
erous, unselfish disposition, and
kind gentle manners, had endear
ed her to all, and when the death
augel invaded our midst and sum
moned this loving girl of so much
promise from earth, our hearts
were saddened and our eyes were
dimmed with tears. To know a
few such characters is the privi
lege of a life time.
She was the pride of fond pa
rents, who have our profound and
heartfelt sympathies in their sad
hours of sore afflictiou.
She was diligent, studious, de
voted to duty, and ambitious to
develop her self into the highest
type of Christian womanhood, but
her bright day closed in its early
morning, leaving her infant purity
and childish innocence unmarred.
On that beautiful Thanksgiving
morning, while millions of earnest
prayers were ascending in pro
found gratitude to a just God who
looks in tender mercies on a sin
cursed world, it was not unmeet
that her spirit, pure and spotless,
should leave the tired sufferer and
return to Him who gave it.
Though her seat is vacant, her
voice is silent, and her genial
smile we shall never see again,
yet we cannot dismiss her to the
silent halls of death; but inspired
by the purity and nobility of her
character, we shall ever be guided
by the foot-prints |Bhe left along
life’s short journey, and will, as a
last Bad tribute, tenderly twine
around her memory garlands wo
ven from the. sweetest flowers of
friendship and love. 1
These few words are an effort at ;
a testimonial of my high esteem ,
for my departed pupil.

THE DEADLY COFFIN TACK.
V. C. Candler, son of Governor
Candler, and known among hie
associates as ‘‘Vic,” was in the
city this week carrying his left
arm in a sling. Vic was paral
ized at his boarding house in Ath
ens on the 18th ult., and was
unconscious for three days. As
soon as possible he was moved to
Atlanta and put under the treat
ment of Dr. Holmes.
Dr. Goss of Athens and Dr.
Holmes cf Atlanta both agreed
that the stroke of paralysis was
caused from smoking cigarettes.
These physicians say that he will
soon recover from the stroke, but
warned him against future use of
cigarettes.
Vic says they are undobtedly
correct as to the cause of the
stroke, and relates what the depot
agent, where he is employed at
Athens, said the day he was strick
en. Vic had just fiuisbed his
third cigarettes after breakfast,
when the agent remarked, "If
you don’t quit smoking cigarettes,
some of these times you will fall
over insensible, and you may
thereafter be affected for life,”
Vic did not believe what the
agent said, and the agent did not
think his words would prove true
in so short a time. He said he
passed through the day and never
felt better, but as he went to the
bath room at night to take a bath
he fell over and knew nothing
more for three days. He hopes
to be well again in a short time,
as he can now move his left arm
and the fingers of his hand which
were most affected.
Since that time the superinten
dent of the Southern road has or
dered that ail employees of the
road who use cigarettes must dis
card them or give up their situa
tions.
While the order of the superin
tendent of the Southern ruilroad
will cause that official to be spo
ken of as a tyrant, it will do much
towards creating a sentiment
against the use of cigarettes, for
when a habit of any kind bars a
man from any certiau occupation
it is obliged to have its effect on
the public mind. —Gainesville

Transcript.
A game that was introduced
among town boys about a week
ago has already become unpopu
lar, despite its uniqueness. The
boys place a comrade in a large
bag, aud when a man comes aloug
two of the lads are tugging at the
bag as if in efforts to lift it and
carry it away, while the other
youngsters are out of sight, but
on the watch. The two boys at
the bag, panting as if out of
breath, appeal to the passing man
for help, and, in nine cases out of
ten the request is complied with.
In his anxiety to give the boys a
lift the man plunges right in and
raises the “boy in the bag” off the
ground. Immediately he is startled
by cries of “murder” and “help,”
which come from the bag and in
form him that he has been made
the victim of a boyish prank. Iu
most cases the victim joins in the
laugh, but a few nightß ago a fath
erly-looking iuvidual upon whom
the joke was played got his dander
up and seized the kid in the bag,
roughly pulled him forth and then
turning the much frightened lad
across his knee administered an
old-fashioned spanking. In that
neighborhood the game has be
come unpopular because of the
difficulty of getting a boy to go
into the bag.
Broken Commandments.

BOERS LIGHTEN SIEGE;
FIGHTING AT IHAFEKING.
inland Does Not Fipwt an Earl; Col
lapse of tbe Boer Army.
Bittle May Have Been Fought at Cclenso.
London, Dec. B.—While the ru
mors of the relief of Kimberly
current on the stock exchange to
day may bo premature, in their
literal sense, there seems no doubt
that the pressure on the gams ii
has been much lighted by General
Methuen’s successes an<! the actual
relief of the place is likely to be a
1 fact very soon.
A clue to the urgent reasons
which dictated General Methuen’s
hurried march may be found in
Governor Milner’s hint to the re
lief committee at Capetown to
prepare for the reception of 10,000
refugees, indicating that the gar
rison must have had reason to
fear tbe reduction of Kimberly by
starvation und disease.
The most recent news from Kim
berly comes by way of Pretoria
and almost seems to show that
Kimberly and Mafeking are acting
in concert with General Methuen,
for at the time the battle was
raging at Gras Pas, both Colonel
Kekewich and Colonel Baden-Pow
ell made sorties and assailed the
beleaguers. The result of the Mafe
king sortie is not known, but ac
cording to a dispatch from Preto
ria Colonel Kekewich inflicted
considerable loss on the Boers,
two shells killiing nine and wound
ing seventeen in a group.
SORTIE AT MAFEKING.
Special dispatches from Pretoria
dnted Sunday. November 26, say
there was another sortie from
Mafeking Saturday, November 25.
On the morniog of that day the
chartered police attacked Eloff’s
fort with great determination.
The fight was progressing whein
tbe dispatch was sent. *
Several ambulance trains left
Mafeking November 25 for the
Free State, where heavy fighting
was expected during the tho-i
coming week The Boers, it was
added, would resist the advance of
the British in the direction of
Kimberley.
It is reported that General
Methuen resumed his march north
ward Wednesday and expected to
form a junction with the Kimber
ley force Saturday or Sunday.
It is suggested in some quarters
that the Boer forces have been
withdrawn from tho north of Cape
Colony and may be hurrying lo
attack General Methuen’s rear;
but as reinforcements have been
pushed rapidly forward from Or
ange river and DeAar, it is claim
ed they ought to circumvent Buch
designs.
NO SPEEDY COLLAPSE.
From Lord Wolseley’s announce
ment it had been decided to call
out one more division, it appears
clear that the war officials do not
look for a speedy collapse of Boer
resistance. t
The brief telegrams from Natal
and the central theatre of the war
convey little information about
the situation. Naauwpoort re
ports that half the Colesburg
Dutch who responded to the Boer
summons for military service have
now returned to their homes, so,
perhaps the serious civil troubles
hampering General Gatacre may
be lessened and the military oper
ations under his directions will
commence.
So far as known, the Ladysmith
relief force is still at Frere, though
the bridge was perhaps sufficiently
repaired to permit of its passage

opposing forces may already have

Girl Friends.
It is delightful to have girl
friends, but a little thought should
be exercised in chosiug one’s com
panions.
The girls you go with can either
make your life or embitter it.
'lf the chum of whom you are so
particular fond is envious of your
home, your clothes and the people
who come to see you, you had bet
ter drop her friendship with aslit
tle delay as possible.
In the first place, be cautions
about getting too intimate with
your girl friends.
Don’t tell them in secret the
private affairs that go on in your
own household, for some day they
will turn it all to account against
you, and will repeat the stories
you unfolded to them with such
startling variations and different
meaning that you will be fairly ap
palled.
No matter how pleasant the
family of the girl across the way
may be to you, you become a nui
sance when you run in upon them
before breakfast and at all hours.
Yon should respect their privacy.
If one of your girl friends has an
admirer coming on a certain eve
ning don’t intrude yourself there,
when your room at that time
would be better than your compa
ny.
If you cannot attract a beau of
your own do not hang around to
capture a stray smile or a word
from another girl’s fellow.
The girl would be sure to dislike
you, and you will not appear to
any advantage in the young man’s
eyes.
Do not boast of your conquests
among the young men to your girl
friends, for they are sure to spread
it, despite the ban of secrecy im
posed upon th m, or what you and
your best fellow talk about when
he calls.
Don’t exhibit all your pretty
clothes for your girls friends’ edi
fication and elaborate upon each
article.
This arouses a spirit of jealousy
iu their hearts, which, once light
ed, iB a flame which feeds quickly
upon itself, and, like a slumbering,
smouldering volcano, is never af
terward fully extinguished.
Don’t trust their suggestions.
If your girl frieuds look at you it
is to criticise generally, and be a
little chary of taking their advice
at all times—they may have their
own interest at heart insteud of
yours.— Laura Jean Libby, iu

Wireless Telegraphy.
W. S. Johnson and C. L. For
tier, of Milwaukee, made a succuss
ful test iu Chicago of wireless te
legraphy. They succeeded in tele
graphing without wires through a
suit of seven rooms with all doors
closed and seven walls.
Another test was made when the
signals were convoyed through
three fire proof vaults and an or
dinary telegraph switch-board in
which thirty wires w. r- connected
up and about forty dead wires
were located. Notwithstanding
the fact that this switch-hoard
contained live wires, the current
passed through all of the vaults
and trough this board. This is
one of the most severe tests that
has been given wireless telegra
phy.
A third test was made in which
the sending instrument was placed
inside one of the steel vaults
and both doors closed and the
combination lock turned. The
signals were then transmitted
clearly trom the inside of the
vault to au adjoining room.

CATARRH CURED WHEN TREATED AS

For four years I have been afflicted
with a very troublesome nasal catarrh.
So terrible has its nature been that,
when I blew my nose small pieces of
bone would frequently come out of my
mouth and nose. The discharge was
copious, and at times very offensive.
My blood became so impure that my
general health was greatly nnpared,
with poor appetite and worse diges
tion. Numerous medicines were used
without relief, until I began tlie use of
Botanic Blood Balm (B. B. B. ) and
three bottles acted almost like magic.

tom has returned, and I feel in every
way quite restored in health. lam an
