SUMMERVILLE, CHATTOOGA COUNTY, GEORGIA, MaKCH 18, 1896 The Sense of Humor of Two “Bad . 1 Men.” George Davis and Bill Jacobs were sma'l farm< rs in Bourbon county, I\y. They were not cf blue , blood, ' ut were chivalrous, all the ■ same, and both were dangerous fighters. They had been friends, [ ' but fell out at last, snd it was supp( sed they would shoot on sight > next time they met. Their first meeting after the ' emeute began was in the streets of Paris, the county seat. , ' Davis drev, a big navy revolver and Jacobs a little pocket derrin ger. When Davis saw tho other man’s weapon he muttered, “Oh, pshaw !’’ and picked up a brickbat. Jacobs made no attempt to shoot and the fight was deferred to a more auspicuous occasion. This reminds me of an incident that happened in Denver during the wild and woolly days. A young man from away down j east had g*me to Denver armed with an old-fashioned Allen revol ver —pepper-box that weapon was : called in those days. In a gambling house one night he became involved with a “bad i man” in a quarrel, and drew’ forth ' his pepper-box. The bad man, who was really a tough citizen fi'om the mountains, and who had not the remotest idea of fear, and who was always aimed with a pair of big navies, throw up his hands in woll-feigned dismay and said: “Heavens, man 1 You ain’t a goin’ to throw’ that at me, are you?” For the sake of his joke he spar ed that young man’s life, and to that one of tho wealthiest and most respected citizens of Denver now owes tho fact that he is doing business in that western metropo lis. He is a monument of that bor der man’s sense of humor.—Chica go Timos-llera'd. Buvklen’s Arnica Salve.

Will people never learn that a “cold” is an accident to be dreaded and that when it occurs treatment should be promptly applied? There is no knowing where the t r ouble will end ; and while complete re covery is the rule, tho exceptions are ‘erribly frequent and thousands upon thousands o£ fatal illnesses occur every year ushered in by a little injudicious exposure and seemingly trifling symptoms. Be yond this, there are today countless invalids who can trace their com plaints to “colds,” which at the time of occurrence gave no concern and were therefore neglected.— When troubled with a cold use Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy.

Most persons know that tho ec centiic evangelist Sam Jones, was a hard case before lie was con torted, which event did not occur until after he was married. Ho was once lecturing tho “boys” with a characteristic freedom and vigor as follows: “Oh, I’ve been all along there, boys I know all about it, and I used to go to balls, and dance too, boys. But when I wanted to get married, when 1 wanted to settle down with a good wife, I quit drinking and g-amblingand 1 didn't go to a ball room to find my wife, but 1 went to a prayer meeting and 1 got a good one.” He told this in Texas, and when he returned to his boarding house his landlady, who had heard his remarks said: “I don’t blame you, Brother Jones; but poor Sis ter Jones, where did she go to get her husband?” They sfty this is the only time ho has been floored since he quit di inking.
