AT SET OF SUN.
If we sit <l' »n at pet nf sun
.And count the things we have done.
And couniintr. find
On-- «elf-denjrln< net. one word
That ex-cd the heart of him who heard.
One glance most kind.
That fell like sunshine where !t went.
Then we may count the day well spent. (
But If through the !!v- lone day
We've e.« -d n • heart by yea or nay;
If through It all
We re no thing that we can trace.
That brought the sunshine to n face;
No act. most small.
That he’p-d some soul and nothins e«»l.
Then •••unt-that day as worse than lost.

I stood beneath the purple bunches that
waved and nodded in the evening breeze,
my eye wandered over the garden beds
and bright blooming flowers. 1 wish I
could have you see that garden as I saw
It in my vision. Near the gate stood tall
arbor vitae trees; down each side of the

mock orange bushes lifted their lofty
branches t>nd shaded whole beds of lilies

many beauties there were four bushes
that were dearer than all others, for they
ware the mother’s favorite flower, the
snowy, fragrant cape jessamine, ami est
at twilight's peaceful hour It was her
wont to gather a blossom an-1 place It on
her bosom, ro It Is not strange that ’n
my vision I should see the dear form as
It came to the bushes and p!ttck-*d the

Bladder troubles most always result from
a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is
obtained quickest by a proper treatment of
the kidneys. If you are feeling badly you
can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer’s
Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and
bladder remedy.
It corrects inability to hold urine and scald
ing pain in passing it, and overcomes that
unpleasant necessity of being compelled to
go often during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and the
extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures cf the most distressing cases.
Swamp-Root Is pleasant to take and sold

the sisters would like some of the little

them in July. Tin- tops ar-' the best thing
for turkeys, while the onions are very

Miss Mattle Colllnsworth, Americus,

ot patient suffering, lett us to enter the
mansion prepared lor her in heaven. Our
tears were scarcely dry before- a teh gram
came announcing tile death of my only

ag- d father and J were then left alone in
tile world. We look care- of each other
tile best we could until (Jod topk him from
me last October, and 1 inn left alone on

sisters hav-- all crossed over to the heav

coniini’d to his room for about six months
during the latter part of last year. For

nothing of it. In about three or four
minutes after he left b's desk a man
who was working for the .Marietta Chair
Company, just across the street from the
biuk of the drug store, ran in and told
Mr. Hodges tiiat a pistol had fired in
tho closet and lie could see some one
oh trie flour. The l>.uk iLuurs were
closed and the report of the pistol had
not been heard in the store. Mr. Hodges
ran back and found Mr. Crosby lifeless on

DEWEY’S BOUNTY CUT DOWN.
United States Supreme Court Decides
Against His Claims.
Washington, May 28.—Tlie United
States supreme court today decided Ad
miral Dewey's bounty claim against tho
admiral’s contention. The effenl is to de
prive the admiral and the men engaged
with him at Manila cf half tho atpoqnt
claimed by them.
Justice il-irlan rendered the opinion of
the court, which turned on whether tlie
words “superiority” or “inferiority'’ in
the statute had reference to support of
the enemy’s vessels by land batteries,
mines and torpedoes.
“AVe cannot do that,” said Justice Har
lan, “without going far beyond the ob
vious import of tile words employed by
congress. There is undoubtedly some
force in the suggestion that in rewarding
officers and sailors who have sunk or
destroyed the enemy’s vessels in a naval
t nirait. ni< nt, that the difficulties of every
kind with which they were actually con
fronted should b-’ tak'-n into considera
tion. But that is a matter which we
crnr.ot suppose was overlooked by con
gress: ami we nre not at liberty ty hoi'l
that it proce?’<l’d upon the broad basis
suggested when it is expressly declar <1
that tho amount of its bounty shall -!• -
pend upon the question whether the ene
my’s vessel—not tlie enemy’s vessel nnd
the land batteries, etc., by which it was
stq-ported. was of inferior or equal or su
jjerior force.”
Upon the question of policy tho court
said: .
“All genuine Americans recall with de
light and pride th-- marvelous «<*hi.*ve
ni’ nts of our navy in the memorable en
gagement at Manila. But this court can
not permit considerations of that char
acter to induce it to depart from tho
cMabllshed rule* for the interpretation
of statutes."
The original claim of Admiral Dewey
nnd ids sailors was about Jl fin ,oon. The
court of claims reduced it to 320.0 O. That
decision Is sustained by today’s decision.
The admiral's personal claim is reduced
from $20,000 to about SIO,OOO.
Chief Justice Fuller and Justices AVhlte
and McKenna dissented.
Ex-Secretary Herbert, counsel for
Dewi v nnd tils men, filed a petition for a
rehearing.
