How glad I was to have a letter from you 1 I ain sorry I cannot writs as good a letter to you as you have done to me But I hope you wjil excuse me, well knowing that I cannot so well as you express myself in En glish. I shall try to give you a description of my town and coun try. Reykjavik is a little town, al though the largest in Iceland. There are about 5,000 inhabitants. They are Icelanders for the most part, excepting some Danish mer chants. It is the capitol of Ice land, and greatest commercial town . There are about 30 stores and one drug store, also two ho tels. Most merchants are Danish, and so are all the richest. According to your father’s hand bill, things are a great deal dearer here than in Suwanee. The town is rather pretty, though not large. The houses are small, and for the most part made of wood, trans ported hither from Norway and Sweden. Some are made of stone, and are the most remarkable buildings, such as the cathedral, the parliament’s house, the bank building, the Governor’s house and the post office. We have also in the town a little theater. There are two churches,of which, though, one is Lutherian, the cathedral, and the other,Catholic. Of schools, we have a gymnasium, at which about 100 pupils are studying, a theological school, a medical col lege and navigation school, and al so a school for women and one for children. We have four printing offices, where most of Icelandic books are published and printed, and at present, five newspapers,all printed in Icelandic. Unfortu nately we have no paper printed in English. Reykjavik is situated with the sea in the south-west part of the country. I believe you can find it on your geographical atlas. I will tell you a little about the country itself: As you know, Ice land is a large island in the north ern part of the Atlantic ocean, close to the Arctic circle. The aroa of Iceland is about 1,900 ge ographical square miles, and the number of inhabitants about 73,- 000. It is an inseparable part of the Danish kingdom. The island is very mountainous. The highest mountain is 6,241 feet. Many mountains are volcanoes, of which, “Mount Hecla” is the most re markable. The most part of the country contains such wild moun tains, lavons, sands and wilder nesses. But Iceland is a very im posing and magnificent country. W’hen the sun shines on the white eternal ice (glacier) which crowns the blue mountains everywhere, it is such a splendid view as we could compare to a beautiful girl, with dark hair, whose head was adorned with a golden head-dress. The climate is cold enough. The mean temperature in Reykjavik is 4 deg. celnus, but in the northern region of the country, about 0 deg. In the country the thermometer often falls to 25 deg. in the winter. From the beginning of October to the middle of May we can have snow, and the snow often lies on the ground for weekß in the middle of the winter in depths of from one to two feet, The sun rises now at 5:80 o’clock in the morning and sets at 0:40 o’clock in the evening. The longest day in the summer is in Reykjavik, about 21 hours, and the shortest in winter,4 hours. But at summer solstice the sun does not set in the extreme north ern part of the island about a week, and consequently he is not) to be seen one week at winter solstice. There come yearly many tourists from other countries, as England, Germany and France, in order to nee the beauty of the island. The natural resources are not great. We have no forests or woods, excepting some little birch woods, no fruits and no corn. We must buy all such things from for eign countries. In the whole coun try potatoes and vegetables grow. The mountains yield no metals or coal, and I am sorry to say that here is no manufactory or indus try. The principal livelihood is farming and fishing. Our domes tic animals are cows, sheep and ponies. Many farmers have 800 or 400 sheep and 6 to 12 cows and 20 to 30 good ponies There are no railroads, so we must transport all our goods by ponies. Our princi pal export is wool, fish aud living ponies, formerly also sheep. The i import consists of corn, coal, salt, j wood, iron, inongery, tobacco and several other things. I will tell you a little about the gymnaseum of Reykjavik. It is the only one in the whole country, jlt is divided into six classes. I j am attending the first class, began last autumn. I have been the head boy in the class for the most part of the winter. In this class we learn Icelandic. Danish, En glish, German, latin, geography, mathematics, theology, universal history. In the upper classes they also learn Greek, French, astrono my, natural history, geology and natural philosophy. What do you learn at your school ? At last I will tell you sometning about myself. When I was 18 years old, I left the country and moved to Reykjavik. Then I had already learned a little Danish, English and French, also geogra phy and reckoning. All this I had learned without a teacher, ex cepting reckoning. When I came to Reykjavik I could speak a little all three languages, and then I de termined to give all my life to study, and after having served to a farmer near town one year, I be gan, and last spring entered the gymnaseum. Now lam good 20 vear9 old; I am of middle stature and not strong at all. I can’t say I am handsome; my eyes are blue and my hair is light colored, like yours. lam tender-hearted and variable in temper. My greatest pleasure is reading, am fond of all sorts of literature and science, es pecially languages. You asked me how I liked Caesar. I must own Ido not like him very much. I am fond of poetry, and sometimes I believe I am a little poet myself. How do you like poetry ? I have not yet found anyone whom I wished to make my friend. Have you many friends ? I have a great mind to travel in foreign countries, and often wish to see the whole world. My greatest desire is to better the state of my country and nation. In my next letter I shall try to tell you more about the country and its government. Please tell mo in your next letter what you most desire to know about Iceland. It would be of great pleasure to me if I could answer your ques tions. If you should happen to get let ters from some ones in other coun tries, please tell me their names and addresses. I should like to correspond with them also, es pecially if they were in France or Italy. With best wishes, Truly yours, Magnus Magnusson, Reykjavik, Iceland. DOES IT PAY TO BUY CHEAP? A cheap remedy for coughs and colds is all right, but you want something that will relieve and cure the more severe and danger ous results ot throat and lung troubles. What shall you do? Go to a warmer and more regular cli mate? Yes, if possible. If not possible for you, then in either case take the only remedy that has beeu introduced in all civilized countries with success in severe throat and lung troubles, “Bos chee’s German Syrup.” It not only heals and stimulates the tis sues to destroy the germ disease, but allays inflamation, causes easy expectoration, gives a good night’s rest, and cures the patient.

Fleming is receiving a'cordial welcome from his many friends in Augusta who are delight ed to find him entirely restored to health again. His efforts to se cure a military camp for Augusta are greatly appreciated, and it is hoped that they will be success ful. Johannah Williams, colored, died in Athens Monday night at the age of 107 years, her age being authenticated. She was born in Oglethorpe county, March 17th, 1798. She belonged first to Maj. Beasley and later on became the property of the late Col. David C. Barrow. Old Johannah had been in declining health for some time, and her death was not unexpected. A young son of William Drane is lying at the point of death at Americus from the effect of a mad dog bite a month ago. Four chil dren were bitten by a dog with hy drophobia, and all the horrible symptoms have siuce developed m the Drane child. Six physicians have attended him and express the belief that rabies are fully devel oped. Great anxiety is felt for the safety of the three other chil dren likewise bitten. Who wants to be dog killer for Telfair county ? We will publish his announcement for the office and also his obituary free of charge. There is many an old mangy hound whose life is more sacred in the eyes of his owner than that of a low-bred constable or dog catcher, as they view mat ters. Some men will fight for a dog quicker th.n for wife or chil dren. They are built that way, and such men are going to give trouble. —Helena Hustler. Final arrangements have been completed for the extensions of the St. Stanislaus College building at Macon, and the work will be begun at once. The institution will be mode the head training school for the Catholic denomina tion of America, and students who have heretofore gone to Washing ton, D. C., and Baltimore, will go to Macon. This will increase the attendance at least two fold. It is estimated that the improve ments to the college building will cost over SIO,OOO. Father Maya han is at the head of the institu tion, having succeeded Father Brisian, who was removed to New Orleaus some time ago. Superintendent Foster, of the state farm, gives a very encour aging account of the condition of the crops and the 200 or more con victs employed on the farm. Mr. Foster has 200 acres of wheat and reports that the condition of this crop is very fine, and promises a large yield. In oats there are 400 acres, but the outlook is not as promising as could be wished for. Nearly all of the cotton crop, which will cover an area of 500 acres, is planted. In corn there will be 800 acres. All of the up land corn is planted, and now the bottom lands are being seeded. In addition to this, there is a hog pasture of twenty acres and a cow pasture of 100 acres. While driving with his wife Sun day, Col. W. R. Brown, a capital ist of Fort Valley, met with an ad venture he will not soon forget. Camped by the roadside was a family of decidedly indigent ap pearance. As Col. Brown rode by he was hailed by the head of the itenerant family, who at once de livered himself of a fiery commu nistic speech, full of anathemas and bitter denunciations of rich men in general and Col. Brown in particular. He further expressed the sentiment that nothing would afford him more pleasure than to meet Col. Brown with a Winches ter rifle and bore a hole through his heart. The strange man ex hibited no symptoms of mental derangement other than his aggra vated socialistic opinions. His name and home and business were not learned, as the traveling party disappeared soon after his meeting with the Fort Valley capitalist. I consider it not only a pleasure but a duty I owe to my neighbors to tell about the wonderful cure effected in my case by the timely | use of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cbol |«ra and Diarrhoea Remedy. I was ! taken very badly with flux and procured a bottle of this remedy. A few doses of it effected a perma nent cure. I take pleasure in rec ommending it to others suffering from that dreadful disease.—J. W. Lynch, Dorr, W. Va. This rem edy is sold by Bagwell Drug Co. Maks ths Fair and Carnival th» Biggest Event Ever Held in This Seotion, The Elborton Star says: One of the 'questions that is now agi tating the mind of the public is the proposition made last Monday night to give Elberton a carnival this year. The question naturally arises, would it be a good thing for the town ? The Star takes the posi tion that it would, and earnestly hopes that the city council will appropriate the amount asked that they will give us a pleasant time. Carnivals are a good thiug. They advertise and show off to a good advantage the natural re sources of the community in which they are given. The Seaboard people will also give Elberton rep resentation in the southern expo sition to be held in the northern cities. That within itself is fully worth the amount asked for. It is a fact that we cannot get north ern capitalists to come south to see what we have, consequently we have to carry the south north and by having Elberton and El bert county represented at this show we stand a good chance to get northern capitalists to invest their money in our midst. With these facts in view, we heartily commend the work Let the bus iness men and citizens of our city take a hand in the work, and make the Carnival the biggest event ever held in this section of the state. AN EPIDEMIC OF WHOOPING COUGH, Last winter during an epidemic of whooping cough my children contracted the disease, having se vere coughing spells. W’e had used Chamberlain's Cough Reme dy very successfully for croup and naturally turned to it at that time and found it relieved the cough and effected a complete cure.— John E. Clifford, Proprietor Nor wood House, Norwood, N Y. This remedy is for sale by Bagwell Drug Co. Old and New. There is a very ancient story, says the Detroit Free Press, that tells of a man meeting a young lady and asking after her father’s health. “How i 9 your father ?” he ask ed, forgetting that her father had been dead several years. “Still dead,” was the reply. This story, whether it ever hap pened or not, has a counterpart in an incident that actually trans pired a Bhort time ago. A gentle man was talking to a friend that he had not seen in a number of I “Is your father alive yet ?” he asked. “Not yet,” she said, absent mindedly. It remains for a Detroit woman, however, to tell the following as an original in her own experience. Meetiug Mrs. Brown one day, a lady who is apt to agree with those to whom she talks last, the latter said: “Why, Mrs. Green, do you know that Mr. Jones is dead ?” “What! You don’t moan it!” “Well,” added Mrs, Brown, in an apologetic tone, “well, he was yesterday.” ALIKE AND DEATH FIGHT. Mr. W. Hiues of Manchester, la., writing of his almost mirac ulous escape from death, says: “Exposure after measles induced serious lung trouble, which ended in Consumption I had frequent hemorrhages and coughed night and day. All my doctors said I must soon die. Then I began to use Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption, which completely cured me. I would not be with out it even if it cost $5.00 a bottle. Hundreds have used it on my rec ommendation and all say it never fails to c ure Throat, Chest and Lung troubles.” Regular size 500 arid SI.OO. Trial bottles free at A. M. Winn & Son’s Drug Stoe. To show how little Germany knows of the way Americans have of settling affairs of honor, it is mentioned that students have in stituted what they call the “Amer ican duel.” The parties to a quar rel draw lots, and the loser is in honor bound to commit suicide. HE FOOLED THE SURGEONS. All doctors told Itenick Hamil ton, of West Jefferson, 0., after suffering 18 months from Rectal Fistula, he would die unless a ost iy operation was preformed, but he cured himself with five boxes of Bucklen’s Arnica Salve, the surest Pile cure on Earth, and the best Salve in the World. 25 cents a box.

ITEMS OF INTERE3T, In restoring the White House recently while the workmen were painting the doors they discovered that they were of solid mahogany, but owing to some mistake the original wood had been painted in imitation of walnut. The paiut was at once scraped off and the doors restored to their pristine state. Motor carriage and motor bicy cles have already attracted the at tention of European trx leviers and in Antwerp these vehicles are doubly taxed, first by the province to the extent of 60 francs on mo tor carriages and 20 francs on mu tdr bicycles, and second by a mu nicipal tax of 100 francs on the former and 50 francs on the lat ter. Missouri apples that have been kept in cold storage since early last fall have been repacked and shipped in refrigerator cars to New York. There the fruit goes into the cold storage end of a steamer. It iB supposed that cold storage will keep the apples until they are wanted at the Paris Exposition. At Dewey, thirty miles south of Coffeville, Kan., a walnut log has been cut for shipment to the Par is Exposition. The tree from which the log was taken is sup posed to be 400 years old. The trunk is sixteen feet in circumfer ence, and the first limb was 45 feet from the ground. Mrs. Bagley, mother of Worth Bagley, who was ensign on the torpedo-boat Winslow and killed off Cardenas, Cuba, during the Spanish war, has sent to the Bath Iron Works pIaDS for a handsome memorial tablet, which will be placed ou the torpedo boat now under construction at the Bath Iron Works in his honor. The tablet will be of bronze in tbe shape of a shield. The border will represent cannon balls, and on it will be the name, Worth Bagley. On the lower part will be an eagle surmounting a shield and sword, while in the center will be the dates of his birth and death. It will be placed on the conning tow er of the boat. In the Revue des Revues of Par is. Aguinaldo contributes an arti cle on the war in the Philippines, which, after giving details of nu merous exesses alleged te have beeu committed by Gsn.

America may be indif ferent to all the calamities with which she is overwhelming ns, but she cannot wish to go ou sacri ficing her own sons, to spread hor ror and anguish in the hearts of mothers, widows and children of Americans for the sake of carry ing on a war contrary to all the traditions left by Washington and Jefferson. I affirm the absolute truth of the facts here set forth. I address these pages to the civil ized world. It rests with it today impartially to declare on which side are right and justice.” QUESTION ANSWERED. Yes, August Flower still has the largest sale of any medicine in the civilized world. Your mothers and grandmothers never thought of using anything else for Indiges tion or Billiousneas. Doctors were scarce, and they seldsm heard of Appendecitis, Nervous Prostration or Heart Failure, etc. They used August Flower to clean out the system and stop fermentation of undigested food, regulate the ac tion of the liver, stimulate the nervous and organic action of the system, aud that is all they took when feeling dull and bad with headaches and other aches.

Royal res* y Absolutely Pure Makes the food more delicious and wholesome HQVAI BAKIwa POWPIW Points in Handling Bees. When bses are in the field gath ering honey, or when swarming, they will never volunteer an at tack, because they are then filled with honey,, but when their little home is molested they will act in self-defense and resist the attack. It is therefore necessary to use a smoker of some kind. Before opening a hive send in a few puffs of smoke at the entrance to alarm them, and they will im mediately rush for the combs and fill themselves with honey. After smoking them, it is well to wait a minute or two, that they may gorge themselveß. The cover can then he lifted off and a little more smoke blown in on top of the frames and the bees will adhere nicely to the combs. With screw driver or tack puller, the division board can be removed and the combs pried apart and one by one examined without any danger of being stung. A beehive should not be pulled apart every few days through mere curiosity, but should be ex amined occasionally to ascertain the needs and condition of the colony. If the colony is weak, it can be strengthened by adding a frame or two of sealed brood taken from some other colony strong enough to spare it. It is well to seleot one kind of hive and frame, so that all the furniture of the hives will be interchangable and not two or three kinds of hives in the apiary. Beeß Bhculd always be handled very gently. They seem to dislike quick, jerky movements. In early spring, or in autumn wheu the days are cool it is prudent not to open the hives until near midday, when the field bees will then be out gathering honey. On cloudy, or rainy days, it is best net to open hives, for the field beeß are tbeu at home, and are cross, be ing deprived of the privilege of gathering honey. Another precau tion is not to expose any honey or other sweets. A gentleman once asked me if I take oft' honey u. night when the bees are asleep. They do not sleep, but work inces santly for six weeks and then die of old ago. Their wings, which are but tissue, become shredded and they fall to the ground on their way to and from the field. Night is the very worst time to molest bees, as some pilferous persons have found out to their sorrow. It ih true bees do not fly at night, but they crawl and sting. By injudicious handling, bees can be made very irritable and cross, so that they will sting every body near and far, and will re main angry and vicious for weeks, but a beekeeper should be very cautious and use good judgment so as not to prove himself a nuis ance to his neighbors. My neigh- bor who moved next door to me last spring remarked the other day: “When I saw all those bee hives in your yard I hesitated about taking the house, for I was afraid of my children being stung, but I have never yet seen a bee iu my yard.” And there are 59 col onies in my apiary, and one glass hive on the front porch. Some of them within six feet of the fence. I have neighbors on three sides of my apiary. One has a horse, and all have children, and I have children njyself, and I have yet to hear of annoyance. I have some Italians and some black and some hybrids. It is claimed generally that flacks and hybrids are very much more cross than Italians, but I find no trouble with any strain by handling as described above. —Exchange.

The Street Fairs and Carnival! that are to be held along the grei Seaboard Air Line, uuder til management of Dr. Harry Redai of Virginia, have two-fold ad vantages. One is the advertisiu and money making the town get on the week of the Fair, and tli other is the fact that the prim object of these Fairs is to collec products of the farms, forests am mines of the south to be used oi the great tour through the uortl to show there the natural resour ces of the territory covered by th| Seaboard Air Line. The Norfolx Va., “Landmark” says; “Nor folk will have a Street Fair anc Carnival which promises to be on< of the biggest things in the shapt of an advertisement of the city and its advantages that have been introduced here in its history.” And yet if this Fair and Carni val for Norfolk was one of those usually held just for the advertis ing and trade the city would get during the week of the Fair, and if it was to be the “biggest thing in Norfolk's History” then the Fairs and Carnivals that are to have the two-fold advantages are. worth just twice as much to a community.
