CAUSE FOR ALARM.
Grave Views Taken of The Vene
zuelan Question By Washfng
ton Papers.
Washington, Oc’. 39. —There
is reason for alarm in the Venezu
elan situation, but not so much
as some people think. The I
Washington Post give a pretty ac- I
curate, if somewhat oxagger «ted,
view of tho situation as regarded
here in a double-leaded leader to
day which follows:
“It is safe to say that the Amer
ican people do not at this moment
fully realize the significance of
present diplomatic conditions nor
the importance of the results to
which they may lead within the
next few months. The nation is
approaching a cjisis, compared
with which, if it bo not happily
averted, the Chillian incident was
but a shadowy spectacle. Very
close to a war with England is this
Administration, both prepared
and determined t > go. Whether
we are to bo plunged into the ter
rible abyss of <n actual struggle is
a question which the future can
decide.
At present, however, there is
ample foundation for believing
that the programme for the future
contemplates a situation.”
How to Prevent Croup.
Some reading that will prove
interesting to young mothers. How
to guard against the disease.
Croup is a terror to young moth
ers and to post them concerning
the cause, first symptoms and
treatment is the object of this
item. The origin of croup is a
common cold Children who are
subject to iu take cold very easily
and croup is almost sure to follow.
The first symptom is hoarseness;
this is soon followed by a peculiar
rough cough, which is easily recog
nized ar.d will never be forgotten
by one who has heard it. The
time to act is when the child first,
becomes hoarse. If Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy is freely given all
tendency to croup will soon disap
pear. Even after the croupy cough
has developed it will prevent the
attack. There is no danger in giv
ing this remedy for it contains
nothing injurious. For sale by all
druggists.
A special from Luverne of the
22nd says: “Ton new babies and
three mothers is the record of a
week in the neighborhood near
Fort Deposit, in Lowndes county.
Mrs. Hattimer, the estimable wife
of the leading merchant of Fort
Deposit, gave birth to three chil
dren, two boys and one girl. The
mother and babies are doing well.
Mrs. Hunter, whose husband is a
well-to-do farmer and resides about
three miles from the Fort, followed
the suit of Mrs. Hattimer, and
gave birth to three well-formed,
fully developed babies and all are
doing finely. Mrs. Campion broke
the record and gave birth to four
children. Dr. Tankersly, who at
tended the mother, says that they
are all doing well.

Good advice : Never leave Lome
on a journey without a bottle of
Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy.
The wife of Mr. Leonard Wells,
of East Brimfield, Mass., had been
suffering from neuralgia for two
days, not being able to sleep or
hardly keep still, when Mr. Hol
den, the merchant there sent her
a bottle of Chamberlain’s Pain
Balm, and asked that she give it a
thorough trial. On meeting Mr
Wells the next day ho was to d
that she was all right, the pain
had left her within two hours, and <
that the bottle of Pain Balin was
worth $5.00 if it could not be had
for less. For sale at 50 cents per
bottle by all druggists,
Women’s Love of Ugly Men.
The illustrious men in history,
who were distinguished as much
for the fascination which they ex
ercised over the fair sex as for
their talents and ability, wore, as
a rule, plain and insignificant in
appearance, Julius Caesar was a
very ill-favored man, and yet when
a mere stripling, before his fame
in Rome, girls of his own age
sighed for him, and mature women
longed for his love. Among the
men of later times who were re
nowned in like manner was Sir
Philip Sidney, plain almost to ug
liness; Paul Scarron, the comic
poet, a cripple . Voltaire, unmista
kably ugly; and Rousseau, whose
manners were awkward as his face
was plain; while John Wilkes,
who had the power to subjugate
any woman who spoke to him for
even five minutes, was admitted
by his own showing to be the ugli
est man in England in his time..

ABSOLUTELY PURE
A Surprise Party.
Not many years ago, not a thous
and miles from Trion, there lived
a blacksmith, who not content to
work the six days set apart by the
good book for worldly toil, was
wont to go quietly to his shop on
Sundays and do such little odd
jobs as could be managed without
making too much noise. This lat
ter part of the program was forced
upon him by the fact that a church
had been buit not a great ways
from his shop, and he well know
that any unseemly noise would
bring down upon him the condem
nation of his neighbors, if nobody
else. One Sunday, which happen
ed to be “meeting day,” he mean
dered out to his shop, intending
to rig up a well bucket out of an
old powder can which he had
bought from a neighboring mer
chant at a groat bargain, for
among other things ho dearly loved
a bargain. He began work, and
was quietly and stealthily cutting
out one end of the can with a
chisel, preparatory to further im
provements in the way of a “bail.”
It so happened that the powder in
the can had become damp while
in the merchant’s possession, and
a goodly quantity had adhered to
the inside end on which the olfl
man was at work. Suddenly a
spark flew from the steel chisel—a
tremendous noise followed —and
then for a brief interval all was
still. After a little while a rust
ling noise was heard in the shav
ings under the work bench on the
other side of the shop—the old
man crawled slowly out —his hair
singed oil—hi face as black as
Pluto, and wearing the unmista
ble look of a man who “didn’t
know it was loaded.” In solemn
silence ho surveyed the scene of
the wreck, evidently in great
doubt as to “where he was at.”
Slowly his scattered senses began
to assemble themselves together
once more —he remembered that it
was Sunday, and not only that,
but “meetin’day” as well, and his
soul was troubled for thinking of
what the neighbors might say.
And then, thinking of all these
things, he muttered to himself in
a solemn, awe-struck voice:
“Wasn’t that aJi-11 of a de-port,
though I”
Six weeks ago I suffered with a
very severe cold ; was almost un
able to speak. My friends all ad
vised me to consult a physician.
Noticing Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy advertised in the St. Paul
Volks Zeitung I procured a bottle,
and after taking it a short while
was entirely well. I now most
heartily recommend this remedy
to anyone suffering with a cold.

hay for $l6O. The hay was grown

field, and has enough left to last
him until next spring.
The Discovery Saved His

Mr. G. Caillouette, druggist,
Beaversville, HL, says: <: To Dr.
I King’s New Discovery I owe my
life. Was taken with La Grippe
and tried all the physicians for
miles about, but of no avail and
was given up and told I could not
live. Having Dr. King’s New Dis
covery in my store I sent for a
bottle and began its use and from
the first dose began to get better,
and after using three bottle was
up and about again. It is worth
its weight in gold. We won’t keep

I. B. Massey, who is farming a
few miles from Washington,
Wilkes county, made this year on
a ten horse farm 150 bales of cot
ton, with an abundance of corn,
fodder, etc, to run him next year.
This is an average of fifteen bales
to the horse. A conservative es
timate makes Mr. Massey's re
ceipt from his farm from $3,500
to $4,000. Mr. Massey says ho
made his calculationts on 4 cents
cotton and would have made mon
ey at that price.
It is related that some of the
North Georgia mountaineers, who
deal in blockade whisky, have a
sly way of traveling with whisky
in their wagons without creating
suspicion. They put the whisky
in their wagons, cover it up with
fodder and then tie a cow to the
end of the wagon ami start to At
lanta to peddle out their vile stuff.
They have the cow to go along to
make the impression that they
have a cow for sale. An Atlanta
man, who keeps a wagon yard,
says a certain old cow has made
so many trips to his wagon yard,
that she knows her stall ami goes
to it promptly on arrival.
The French say “it is the impos
sible that happens.” This has
proved to be the case with the
Mount Lebanon Shakers. The
whole scientific world has been
laboring to cure dyspepsia, but
every effort seemed to meet with
defeat. The suffering from sto
mach troubles has become almost
universal. Multitudes have no
desire for food and that they do
eat causes them pain and distress.
Sleepless nights are the rule and
not the exception, and thousands
of sufferers have become discoura
ged.
The Shakers of Mount Lebanon
recently came to the front with
their new Digestive Cordial, which
contains not only a food already
digested, but is a digester of food.
It promptly relieves nearly all
forms of indigestion. Ask your
druggist for one of their books.
