ThcMijan who waits until tomor¬ row never accomplishes anything. Occasionally a wise man makes a fool of himself by getting married. The man who poses as a fancy whistler isn’t much good at anything else. Perhaps all men are liars, but there are times when it’s unwise to say so. Some girls are knpt so busy get¬ ting engaged that they have no time to marry. It isn’t what gmaii possesses that makes him happy, but what he does not want. It is sometimes, mqya difficult to win the father’s ear than,the. daugh¬ ter’s hand. It’s pretty, tough when the “roll of honpr” consists, of bytterlcss dry, bread, Ijfp who depends upon the invita¬ tions of others for his meals dines very irregularly. An honest man is not only the noblest work of the Creator, but also the scarcest. A low voice is an excellent thing in,a woman and a low theater hat i? an,excellent thing op,her. A fish diet may not strengthen the brain, but going fishing, often invigorates th% imagination. Presence of mind; is undoubtedly a good thing in the hour of danger, but absence of body is a great deal better.

The Dispatch has had hint little to say, about the sheriff’s advertis¬ ing, except-to announce it would be that officials organ, and it has noth¬ ing to. say now, except that it is quietly- picking its bone, which it received clean, from the clean hands of Sheriff Flhtcher. Mr. J. Ml Garrett is still very lbwvbnt witBta little change for the better inthis condition. This genial old gentlemanhas been confined to • his bed for several, months from an acute kidney trouble.

They are fine shots, both of them, but on this particular oc¬ casion they did not do any shooting. ; Before reaching the swamp they “flushed” some turkeys, one of which—a big, fat one—did not rise, but ran toward the swamp. They determined to capture him alive. To do this they had to keep him on the run, but not get too close, to force him to fly. The result was, before the victim reached the swamp he’ was too fagged out to make the short but swift run necessary to en¬ able-kirn to rise, and they closed in on him and captured him. The arrest to-day of Marion Win¬ ter, an old.negro of Marion county, on the.charge of passing counterfeit m ohm;, brings to light a unique case, says the Savannah News. A few days ago bright, shining coins made their appearance in Buena Vista,, Winter’s home. The coins, Unita&i States money, woro dated back in the ’30’s. They were sus¬ piciously new looking. The banks refused to take them and this led to an investigation. It developed that Winter was'the man responsible for the circulation of the new-looking money, and his arrest ensued. Win¬ ter is an unsophisticated looking country darkey, and he says that some of the money was given him by his father and that he earned some when a young man, He packed it away to reserve it for old age. He kept 340 bright half dol¬ lars in a candy jar, buried under his house. With the coming of old he needed the money and so he dug up bis treasure the other day, only to into trouble. It sometimes takes severe lessons to make some men appreciate wives .and sing their praises. the following from the BranchiJournal:. “The editor played a, new role for several days. He has learned to make biscuit,, meat and do general cooking. It not a pleasant job and the trouble is, it is never finished. the time the dishes are washed the fire goes ont in the stove it time to fire up and commence same thing over. The man fails to appreciate a healthy ought to trade himself oif for a and hire the dog killed.” No healthy person need fear dangerous consequences from an tack of la grippe, if properly It is much the same as a severe and ; requires precisely the treatment. Remain quietly at and take Chamberlain’s Cough ■ly as directed for a severe cold ■ prompt and complete recovery Hire to follow.

During the epidemic of la grippe a few years, ago, when so many cases re¬ sulted in pneumonia, it was ob¬ served that-the attack was never fol¬ lowed by that disease when Cham¬ berlain's Cough Remedy was used. It counteracts any tendency of a cold or la grippe to result in that dangerous disease. It is the remedy in the world for bad colds and la grippe. Every bottle war¬ ranted. For sale by Luke Ashley.
