CHRONICJffALARIA.
A Very Prevalent Disease Fol
lowingthe Hot Summer of 1895.
The continuance of hot and dry
weather is sure to produce the pre
valence of chronic malaria. The
past summer has been exactly suit
able for the production of a great
deal of malaria. Evon in locali
ties where malaria has been prev
iously unknown many cases of ma
laria are developed. This form of
malaria is distinguished from tho
old-fashioned fever and ague by
tho insidiousness of its attack and
tho difficulty with which it is cur
ed. It does not conic m quickly,
like chills and fever. The symp
toms poster and provoke some
times for several weeks before the
patient is made sick enough to
take medicine.
Slight, chilly sensations, cold,
sweaty spells, frontal headache,
biliousness, furrod t'-ngue, bad
tasto in tho mouth, sticky mucous
in the throat, constipation, languor
etc.
A medical treatiso on chronic
malaria will bo sent free by The
Po-ru-na Drug Manufacturing
Company of Columbus, Ohio, This
book is a complete guide to the
provention and euro of malaria in
its various forms. Pe-ru-na has
long ainco boon recognized as the
only infallible euro for the chronic
form of malaria. While quinine
has become the standard remedy
for acute malaria, commonly call
ed fever and ague, many people
have found by bitter experience
that it will not cure tho chronic
form Peru-na cures those cases
promptly and permanently.
‘•Nature teaches that the life
which follows tho resurrection
will be higher and nobler, and
more abundant than tho present.
You take up a grain of corn to ex
amine it, but its smallness is such
that it slips through your fingers;
but, small as it is, it has within it
the germ of a larger life. Bury it
in tho ground, and from that ono
grain there come several stalks,
and upon each stalk several grains
reaching sometimes more than the
standard of a hundred fold. And
revelation clearly affirms that the
corruption, dishonor, weakness
and naturalness of the present life
will be replaced by the incorrup
tion, glory, power and spirituality
of tho resurrection life.”—Rev. I.
Loyd.

- Suicide of a Charleston Official at
, j Atlanta.
; Atlanta, Sept. 23.—After mak- i
. . ing all his preparations with care- j
3 ful and due calculation, Kirby
. Tupper lay on the couch ifi the
t office of the Queen Insurancecom
. pany, and placing a pistol to his
. head blew out his brains. Tho
. cause of it all is a mystery.
f Tupper was deputy collector of
> customs on duty’ at the exposition.
■ He was stationed at Charleston,
[ wl ere he held a similar position
■ in the customs service until he re
ceived the exposition assignment
■ which he sought. He had been on
duty here a week or more and was
i seemingly very happy over the lo
i cation, as it threw him with his
brother, a prominent insurance
man, and with his brothers-in-law,
, Lieuts Chatfield and Liggitt, of
the Fifth infantry, stationed here.
Shortly after 7 o’clock this
morning he went to the Equitable
building and had the janitor let
him into his brother’s office. Ho
wrote a note to his brother, anoth
er asking whoever found him to
notify his people, and then took
bis life. Nobody knows why he
did it. Sam Tupper, the brother,
is in Richmond and the contents
to him are not known.
Tupper’s business affairs were
all straight. lie was a man of
considerable property and his fam
ily relations were happy.

MBS. BEBESFOBD SUED,
Rome Attorneys Enter Proceed
ings Against, the Wife of the
Now Celebrated Convict.
Rome, Sept., 28.—Mrs. Sidney
Lascelles, the millionaire wife of
Lord Beresford, who is now suing
for a divorce, is the defendant in a
sensational suit that adds new in
terest to the celebrated case.
L A. Dean and W. W- Vandiver
two Rome attorneys, who were
employed by Mrs. Lascelles to de
fend her husband, claim that they
have not received the fees and that
the wife is wholly responsible. She
gave a note to these attorneys,
covering the amount of their
charges, and now the payment is
refused. In consequence suit has
been brought and the case will
come to trial in New York in the
early part of next month.
Messrs Dean and Vandiver are
averse to talking, but admit that
they are collecting evidence for
the trial. It promises to be sen
sational, as the parents of M”s.
Lascelles will enter into the case.
The face of the note and the in
terest amounts to a considerable
sum.

The State Commander writes us
from Lincoln, Neb., as follows:
“After trying other medicines for
what seemed to be a very obstinate
cough in our two children we tried
Dr. King’s New Discovery and at
the end of two days the cough en
tirely left them. We will not be
without it hereafter, as our exper
ience proves that it cures when all
other remedies fail.”—Signed F.
W. Stevens, State Com.—Why not
give this great medicine a trial, as
it is guaranteed and trial bottles

Women are now admitted Lo lee-'

Recently eight women were attend
ing Prof. Tait’s lecture on the geo
metric forms of crystals. “An oc

professor, “is a body with eight

“Look at tho front bench,” broke

Dressing for Royalty.
The saddest sight in the world
is to see the thin, scraggy old wo
men at the Queen’s drawing-room.
They must go low-necked. Ths
Queen herself has always had a
beautiful neck and shoulders, and,
she presumes that all English wo-1
men follow her example in this as
well as other respects. Feathers
add to her height and dignity,
hence, if a woman is 7 feet high
she is forced by order of the Queen
to make herself look eight with
the stiff plumes. Many a mother
who blushed to think that her ba
by saw her bones has to exhibit
them in all their awfulness to ths
British public or stay at homo.
And this no self-respecting Eng
lish woman wants to do. You
have heard the story of the old
Scotch woman who got the better
of the Queen, haven’t you? Well,
lam glad there is somebody to
whom it is new. She belonged to
the Douglas family, and they have
wills quite as strong as the
Guelphs. She wrote a personal
letter to the Queen telling that
she suffered so with rheumatism
in her shoulders and had the quin
sy so badly that she begged to be
allowed to come with a high bo<-
ice, as she wished to present her
- granddaughter. An answer came
' from the Lord Chamberlain say-
D ing that it was impossible. Alter
that two letters were written to
him stating the case. The “No”
r was positive. The horror of the
J assembly can be imagined when
• Lady Sarah Douglas appeared,
. gowned superbly in white brocade
■ wearing al l the family jewe's and
I having her bodice cut rather more
• decollete than any other woman.
1 However, there rose above the low
• bodice in stern comfort and there
came way down to the wrists a fiery
. red flannel shirt that told how, for
» mice, Scotch wit got the better of
k German stubbornness.

Bull Fights In Atlanta,
) Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 20.—1 u
spite of all protests from the hu
’ mane societies, it is said that one
t of the features of the Mexican vil
► lage at the big fair will be genu*
ine Mexican bull fights. The Mex-
* leans and trappings are already on
s the ground and the ring is being
i built, Six full-blooded bulla were
. bought some time ago in Mexico
• and ate now on their way to At
lanta. Just when they will arrive
the Mexicans will not say, but ad-
. mit that it will be within a week.
It is the intention, they say, to
bring off the first fight without in?
forming the Exposition authori
ties. This will establish a prece
dent, they think, sufficient to pre
vent the stopping of subsequent
encounters.

in a few days to see the projectors
of the mill, and is confident he
will bring it to Georgia.

“Wh*t is the name of that new

before him with a new hat on.
“This, dearest, is named the

jibtopsails up, its balloon sails set
and is all ready to run in the teeth
of a gale ever experienced.”
“H’m 1 Perhaps since you’re so
glib in the use of nautical phrases
you can tell me where I come in,”

Politeness Has Vanished,
I am not an old woman and yet
I have lived long enough to see
the almost utter decadence of some
old-fashioned virtues. Take po
liteness. for instance —simple, old
fashioned politeness, that sprung
from the heart like a rose from
thevoot. How little we see of it
nowadays. We see a great deal of
what you call company manners,
learned from a book of etiquette,
perhaps, but, the kindly spirit that
seeks to make things pleasant for
the humblest stranger, as well as
for the guest who comes in the van
of a trumpeting herald, is growing
rarer each year. Whut if it does
cost a little trouble to answer a
question, or drop your task to di
rect a stranger; what is the use of
being in the world at all if not to
lend a helping hand where we can
and make folks happy? The cour
tesy that is only shown to people
we know and to people who can re
spond perhaps in kind is a spur
ious courtesy, as different
old time politeness as a pink made
of muslin to a sweet carnation
that grows jn the garden and woos
the bees. —Philadelphia Times.
Here is a rather singular thing
which no one has noticed in print,
and yet which all of us must have
remarked many times for ourselves
If we know a woman who is set
apart by any oddity of feature,
which amounts to a deformity, who
is repulsivelyjigly, it is almost cer
tain that that woman is married.
Now, this is also true of men, but
• one has the less to say about that
pa’ ty, because long ago the genial
hearted old Autocrat sighed ovei
| the patent truth that there was nc
’ man short of a gorilla in appear
‘ avce whom some good and pretty
' woman would not take and make
a husband out of. But that the
gorilla-like woman should likewise
, be selected is a strange fact, anc
still a factat is.—Chicago Post.
A Daring Operation.
1 The first operation for the re
moval of the jugular was perform-
i ed in India by an English surgeon
■ a Dr. Smith, on an East Indian,
■ who had such a bad tumor on his
neck that death was certain. To
cut down and take out a piece of
the famous old vein was simply a
rash experiment in which Dr.
Smith himself had little confi
dence. As soon as the news of its
success was distributed through
the medical world the vein imme
diately lost some of its great pres
tige and the tumor of the neck
much of its horror. You may be
sure that Dr. Smith did not tell
the Indian what he was about to
do or the poor fellow would prob
ably have died of fright on the
spot, for the ignorant natives of
India regard the jugular as the
seat of all life. But the prestige
of the jugular has received even a
greater blow. A few weeks ago in
a case of inflammation of both
sides of the walls of the neck and
the resulting disease of both jugu
lars and the tissue around them,
of a patient in a British hospital
another rash experiment was at
tempted—the removal of both jug
ulars. It succeeded. The patient
is upon his feet again and lively
as he ever was and to be slashed
in the jugular has now no terrors
for him.—Chicago Record.

Assistant Keeper of the Peni
tentiary Jake Moore returned from
an extended trip yesterday. He
wai compelled to travel through
Florida part of the time, and he
says that wherever he went the
people he met were talking expo
sition.
“Old negroes,” said Colonel
Moore, “when asked if they had
ever been to Atlanta would reply,
‘No, sir boss, but Um gwineter dat
expersishun, sho!’ And so it was
with the whites. They are com
ing, and no mistake.”
Colonel Moore says there has
, been more corn made in Georgia
this year than in twenty years
past, and that the people are more
, prosperous in every way..
“There are three or four men,”
said he, “who are anxious to go in
to business in Rome, but are un
able to find a vacant storeroom.
( “I find the general tone of busi
ness one of confidence and hope,
and with cotton at a good figure
( ;,his fall, everything will be lovely
in old Georgia.”—Tribune..
