TEMPERANCE.
boys, let me advise you to make
the most of your opport unities, by
' H 'ing temperate. There is nothing
nicer than a temperate young man.
Look at an intemperate man, and
you will not wonder that human
life is compared to a passing stream
—to a troubled sleep—to a dream,
or to a declining shadow; and now
take into account how much shorter
still the ordinary term of human
existence may be cut by intemper¬
ance.
Look into the family. See tears
and sorrow. Here is a father weep¬
ing over the ingratitude of a diso¬
bedient son. There a mother heart¬
broken over the ruin of an unditi-
f ld son.
See yonder, the wife weeping tears
0 f hitter distress over the dissipated
tmhits of a husband who promised
to cherish her in trouble,
Look the whole world over and
see the sorrows of. this present life,
caused by intemperance. Then per-
haps you can see the great advant-
age of temperance. Be consistent
and firm, and yon will not fail,
While your career may not be bril-
liant, it will be useful. Go on in
your stolid way and make mankind
better by your example and firmness,
Pursue your course with energy,
and with kind words and acts, and
temperate habits, you can gain the
love and confidence of every one
you meet. Temperance will bring
you honor, prosperity, intelligence,
and happiness, and all united will
P roduoe results that wil1 S ladden
the hearts of your parents—till them
with joy and hope for your future.
But this monster, intemperance,
continues with greediness among the
men of civilized nations, and it re¬
mains for the hoys of to-day to
throw him over. And, hoys, you
can do it if you will stick together,
with a little help and encouragement
from the girls. And now, girls,
let’s help them to conquer intemper¬
ance and make this grand old world
a better and happier one.
Boys and girls, 1 know of one
boy wbo says there is no harm in
getting drunk. I wonder if any of
y OU wbo read this will say there is
not. I truly hope there is not one.
g ome boys> 01 . rather y 0ung me „ (
think they cau get dr unk, curse,
and swear, and then go with the
girls and have a big time. Girls,
let me beg you not to allow it. If
you cannot pursua.de them to stop
their intemperance, turn your back
to them—have nothing to do with
them, if you wish to maintain y our
good character. 'The allurements
of intemperance that lead downward
are numerous and you must be very
particular of your conduct, for all
forms of intemperance are evil and
will destroy some part of tho mind
or body.
Temperance is health and pleas-
tire, and if one would • make the
most of this life he must be temper-
ate in a11 things. It is the highest
and best form of life that one can
^ ve *t leads to happiness, honor
an< ^ position, To establish thor-
ouglily the principles of temperance,
Y 011 mlwt ^g* 11 in y outh - Ancl to
3 temperate man, you must eon-
trol yourself, which is not an easy
matter, if not begun in youth.
With best wishes,

His Life Was Saved.
Mr- J- E. Tally, a prominent citi-
zen °1 Hannibal, Mo., lately bad a
wonderful deliverance from a fright¬

that ran into Pneumonia. My lungs
became hardened. I was so weak I
couldn’t even sit up in bed. Noth-

die of Consumption, when I heard
of Dr. King’s New Discovery. One
bottle gave great relief. 1 contin-

praise.” This marvellous medicine

Wa lker was to-day nominated as the
demooratio candidate to succeed W.

An entomological mystery is puz¬
zling Washington City, and (lie
pjentity o( u.e bug which is devas-

f ace being sought eagerly. The
1)CW bug was h r.st heal'd from a few
( ,. iys ag0) wben a newsdealer applied
at , a hospital for treatment, his face
so swollen that his nearest friends
did not'recognize him. Since then
a (lo!wn similar cases have been
treat0( j_ Xone of the victims saw
the insect, because the attack is al
ways made when the person is
asleep. The lips seem to be the
favorite point of attack. The vic¬
tim wakes up in the dead of the
night, suffering the most intense
pain in the face, and finds his lips
and other features puffed up to an
enormous size, The swelling is a
bright red, and lasts from forty-eight
to seventy-two hours, accompanied
by almost constant pain. Entomol¬
ogists at the Agricultural Depart¬
ment are anxious to secure one of
the bugs.
Spent a Good Farm Doctoring,
Mr. A. N. Noel 1, of Ashorvilie,
Kansas, says he spent a good farm
doctoring himself for chronic diar¬
rhoea but got no relief and was
afraid that he must die. He chanced
to got hold of a bottle of Chamber¬
lain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy and was permanently cured
by it. For sale by Dr. G. H. Macon

The lumber trade from the Sav¬
annah port is said to be nearly four
times as great as it was three months
ago. The immense shipments of
timber and the high prices for all
kinds of building material indicates
a great period of prosperity some¬
where,—Valdosta Times. The de¬
cadence of the lumber business will
set before halt a dozen years have
passed, at the rate it is now being
cut in Georgia. While the flush
times are with us, let the matter of
building factories of various kinds
receive earnest attention.
No Right To Ugliness.
The woman who is lovely in face,
form and temper will always have
friends,.but one who would be at¬
tractive must keep her health. If
she is weak, sickly and all run down,
she will be uervous and irritable.
If she has constipation or kidney
trouble, her impure blood will cause
pimples, blotches, skiu eruptions
and a wretched complexion. Elec¬
tric Bitters is the best medicine in
the world to regulate stomach, liver
and kidneys and to purify the blood.
It gives strong nerves, bright eyes,
smooth, velvety skin, rich complex¬
ion. It will make a good-looking,
charming woman of a run-down in¬
valid. Only 50 cents at Dr, G. M.
Macon & Co.’s Drug Storo.
Several prominent melon growers
of this place have reported the fact
that carloads of melons that were
consigned to commission men only
netted *2 and *3. Will some of the
editorial brethren please explain, if
possible, whether the exorbitant
freight rates or the dishonesty of
the commission men, or both, absorb
the profits? This is a shame upon
the United States as a nation.—Val¬
dosta Times. The melons wove
doubtless consigned to curb-stone
commission men. They usually
have as many names as places of
business.
IS IT RIGHT
For an Editor to Recommend Pat¬
ent Medicines ?
From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard, N. C.
It may be a question whether the
editor of a newspaper has the right
to publicly recommend any of the
various proprietary medicines which
flood the market, yet as a preventive
of suffering we feel it a duty to say
a good word for Chamberlain’s Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
We have known and used this medi¬
cine in our family for twenty years
and have always found it reliable.
In many cases a dose of this remedy
would savo hours of suffering while
a physician is awaited. We do not
believe in depending implicitly on
any medicine for a cure, but we do
believe that if a bottle of Chamber¬
lain’s Diarrhoea Remedy were kept
on hand and administered at the
inception of an attack much suffer¬
ing might be avoided and in very
many cases the presence of a physi¬
cian would not be required. At
least this has been our experience
during the past twenty years. For
sale by Dr. G. H. Macon tfc Co-,
Druggists.
