Modern Cooking and Mod
ern Living have brought it
on. It comes upon us una
wares. The patients have
pains about the chest and sides,
and sometimes in the back.
They feel dull and sleepy; the
mouth lias a bad taste, especi
ally in the morning. A sort
of sticky slime collects about
the teeth. The appetite is poor*
There is a feeling like a heavy
load on the stomach; sometimes
a faint, all-gone sensation at
the pit of the stomach which
food does not satisfy. The
eyes are sunken, the hands
and feet become cold and feel
clammy. After a while a
cough sets in, at first, dry, but
after a few months it is at
tended with a greenish colored
expectoration. The patient
feels tired all the while, and
sleep does not seem to afford
any rest. After a time he be
comes nervous, irritable and
gloomy, and has evil forebod
ings. There is a giddiness, a
sort of whirling sensation in
the head when rising up sud
denly. The bowels become
costive; the skin is dry and
hot at times; the blood becomes
thick and stagnant; the whites
of the eyes become tinged with
yellow; the kidney secretions
becomes scanty and high col
ored, depositing a sediment
after standing. There is fre
quently a spirting up of the
food, sometimes with a sour
taste and sometimes with a
sweetish taste; this is fre
quently attended with palpi
tation of the heart and Asth
matic symptoms; the vision be
comes impaired, with spots be
fore tlie eyes; there is a feel
ing of great prostration and
weakness. All of these symp
toms are in turn present. It
is thought that nearly one-half
of our population li;is this dis
ease in some of its varied forms.

Ingersoll on Music.
Although there are but few who
suspect it, it is nevertheless a fact,
that Col. Ingersoll is one of the most
enthusiastic devotees of music and as
thoroughgoing a Wagnerian as cun
be found in this city. He never miss
es a notable performance at the Me
tropolitan opera house, and sympho
ny concerts are his special delight.
While conversing with the colonel the
other evening the subject of music
was broached, and the colonel said
that he got all his musical education
in two weeks, and that that was
enough to give him a knowledge of
the principles that would serve him
for a lifetime, lie made the great dis
covery that there were three kinds of
music, and these he classified in the
following original fashion: The first
kind was “heel music,” or simply
rythmical sound, a succession of hom
ogenous notes, or a tattoo. This was
the lowest form. The second was
what he called “soul music,” or the
repetition of different sounds in vary
ing cadences. This appealed to the
feeling and the emotions, but went no
further. The third and highest form
of music was “thought music,” which
is represented only by Wagner and
his school. It was this form of music,
lie said, which appealed to the intel
lect and made man think in music
language.—New York Graphic.

Are the months in which to purify
the blood, as the system is now most
susceptible to benefit from medicine.
Hence now is the time to take Hood’s
Sarsaparilla, a medicine peculiarly
adapted for the purpose, possessing
peculiar curat#e powers. It expels
every impurity from the blood, and
also gives it vitality and richness.
It creates an appetite, tones the di
gestion, invigorates the liver, and
gives new life and energy lo every
function of the body. The testimony
of thousands, as to the great benefit
derived from Hood’s Sarsaparilla,
should convince everybody that it is
peculiarly the best blood purifier and
spring medicine. [34 lm

Their Time Had Come.
A HAITI ST PREACHER WHO SHOWED
HIS FAITH BY HIS WORKS.
Ben Perly Poore’s Reminiscences.
Col Richard M. Johnson used to tell
the following story of a relative of
his named Huoket, a Baptist preach
er. Bucket had grown up on the fron
tier, a dissolute fellow and a great
fighter, but just before the campaign
against Teouinseh he had suddenly
changed his course and become pious.
He, however, had a strong inclination
for the camp, and volunteered his ser
vices to assist the colonel against the
enemy, under condition that he should
have the privilege of preaching to the
soldiers in camp. The condition was
gladly embraced, and Bucket was in
stalled as'Major, under a sort of cer
tificate from the commanding officer.
He was'an energetic, stirring man,
a capital officer and a zealous preach
er. On the day before the battle of
tlie Thames, the Colonel dropped in
to one of the meetings. He was hold
ing forth with a stentorian voice, and
insisting strongly ou the doctrine of
predestination. “All the destinies of
men,” said lie, “are in the hands of
tlie Almighty, and not a sparrow falls
to the ground without His direction.
Ho is, too, tlie ‘God of battles.” He
directs the bullets in tlie fight, as well
as the peaceful operation of tlie house
hold; and-hence there is just as little
danger on the field of battle as in tlie
workshop or at the plow tail. If you
are to die, you will tlie at all events;
but if you are to live, the Almighty
can turn the bullet out of its course
as easily as he can number the hairs
of your head. If you time has come,
you will die, whether on the battle
field or not. But,” continued he, “1
don’t believe your time lias come. I
don’t think, my friends, you are to die
just now.’ |
The next morning, while prepara
tions were mukiug for the battle,
Johnson met the preacher. “Well
Bucket,” said he with a smile, “we
are likely to have serious work to-day;
and you think that a man can’t die
’til liis time comes and that lie’s just
as safe in one place as another, I
should like to have you charge at the
head of your column; and mark me
now, don’t you fire ’till the enemy has
discharged every gun; then take aim
at the whites of their eves, and, hav
ing fired, stop for nothing, but grap
ple them by tlie throat, and make
sure work of it.” “Very well, Colo
nel,” said Bucket, “I’m always willing
to test my faith by my works.”
Accordingly, Bucket took his posi
tion at the head of his command,
which was about 500 strong, and re
ceived the fire of 700 of the enemy.
He stood it like a mail, only winking
a little as the halls came whizzing
past him in showers. But he obey
ed his order to the letter, and having
received the 700 bullets of the enemy,
he udvanced forward, pouring in a
deadly fire, immediately grappled
band to hand with the foe which
soon decided the fate of the day.
After the action was over the Col
onel remonstrated with him, good-
humoredly, for killing so many of tlie
enemy. “Why, Bucket,” said he,
“this was useless; half the number
would have answered every purpose.
How came you to cause such a use
less waste cf human life?” “Don’t
know how it was, Colonel,” replied
the preacher; “we only fired once; and i
1 rather think it was because their |
time had come.”

will not every farmer pursue this poli

THE NEED OF A GOOD f.
T10N LAW. \
Albany Wows and Advertiser.
When tlie Georgia Legislature nit
in July next there is nothing thatf
could do that would be of more ceY,
tain and lasting benefit to the people Ok
the State than to enact a good,
straight-forward collection law. Such
a law would remove the great hairier
that now stands botween the people
of the State and foreign capital, and
would not only make money easier to
obtain, but would reduce the rate of
interest.
It is the man of limited means who
has to borrow, and not the money
lender, who stands most in need of a
good, healthy collection law. The
man who has money to loan in Geor
gia can, with the exercise of an abun
dance of caution, find reasonably safe
investment for It at a high rate of in
terest. If he loans it at a)1 he will,
nine times out of ten, exact usurious
interest, for the reason that, under
tlie operation of our defective and
uncertain collection system, capital is
timid and the demands of the bor
rowing class are always in excess of
the supply of money that the limited
number of lenders have on hand or
are willing to invest in view of the un
certainties and delays of the law.
A majority of the farmers and busi
ness men of Georgia are money bor
rowers. Any law that would have
a tendency to increase the supply of
money and reduce tlie rate of inter
est would, therefore, be greatly to
their benefit. A good collection law
would accomplish this for them just
ns certainly as cause produces effect.
Whenever it became known that the
laws of the Btate required the pay
ment of just debts and made tne
debtor’s property liable for bis debts,
then capital would come here for in
vestment, and a man could borrow
money to the extent of the value of
his property, at a reasonable rate of
interest.
Under our present system a man
has to be comparatively rich to have
any credit. Tne poor man who is com
