The
world of athletic sports is fairly alive.
There is already fall promise of a
great year for aporta, for not only
has the North resumed its vigorous
pursuit of out-door sports, but the
South, too, baa taken up the life, and
it begina to seem that an unusual
year is to follow.
Sports of every kind have reviv
ed with the approach of summer, and
the field and track are resounding
with the echo of ball and bat and the
shouts ot enthusies’.ic spectators.
“AH over the country,” says the
SL Louis Republic “the college ath
letes are already afield with new or
ganizations, new men and plenty of
gymnasium' trained muscle to com
pete for class and university honors
at anything from lawn tennis to foot
ball and boating. The rage for
physical culture among collegians
seems to grow and take moie system
atic method every year and the vaa
rious intercollegiate contests will at
tract more attention than ever.
The athletic clubs continue to in.
crease in numbers and popularity all
over the country. They are becom
ing stronger and better equipped
aud their entertainments are yearly
being more generally recognized as
a|popular amusement feature, at once
attractive and commendable.
In the base-ball world the war be
tween tbe rival professional Leagues

PROTECTION AND RECIPROCITY-
It is dow told that Mr. Blaine is
not satisfied with his continental
idea of reciprocity, but is seeking
to obtain permission of bis friends,
the republicans, to carry the scheme
even over to Europe and put it in
operation with several countries
over there.
As it now stands, the McKinley
act confines the reciprocity policy,
wLich the cabinet is allowed to ar
range to those countries producing
and exporting such articles as sugar,
molasses, coffee, etc.
What will result if Mr. Blaine
should extend his reciprocity scheme
to European nations? It will prob
ably allow certain productions of
those countries to come into this
country free of dnty which are
cheaper than can be bought here.
This, however, is at variance with
Harrison’s idea of protection to mo
nopolies, and this can hardly be
taken as good ground upon which to
base any hopes.
If Mr. Blaine succeeds in swing
ing off fironf Harrison as has been
- threatened very often, this may be
made the issue between them. It is
a matter, that bears watching by
Democrats, anyhow.
Tax difference in dealing with s
surplus revenue in England and in
ibis country continues to be notice
able. Last year the English Gov*
eminent met the question by abating
taxes. This year, the surplus con
tinuing to the amount of nearly 99,
000,000, Mr. Goschen proposes- to
use it towards making elementary
education free. In this country
R* publican Congress distributed tbe
surplus in appropriations for the
political benefit of its own members
and to reward mercenary claim
agents, contractors and other cam
paign supporters for their contribu

Tns Tribune of Rome says:
“There are two journals in Georgia
that never indulge in bitter flings at
each other. These are the Christian
Index, Baptist, and the Wesleyan
Christian Advocate, Methodist, both
of Atlanta. A few days ago, one of
the editors of the former made him
self a sort of agent of the latter, and
secured some subscribers for his con
temporary. ActB do speak louder
than words. The Index and the Ad
vocate have discovered that t.he
Christian religion teaches the lesson
of brotherly kindness, as well as sev
eral other important lessons.”

In nearly all regulated lines of.indua
try at present the advertising man is om
of the most important adjuncts of
business. And on the the other hand
the advertising department of a first
class newspaper is not what it used to
be, but is instead fast becoming an in
teresting feature of all enterprising jour-
~ s. Formerly the prevailing idea
among the uninitiated was that tbs
talented, the beet, most versatile mid
most ingenious writers and artists were
all employed in the news department
How nearly correct this idea may have
been need not be stated, but that such is
not the case now may be seen by *a
perusal of the “ads” of any flourishing
paper. The competitions between the
merchants and between the papers’
agents have become so great that the
great wholesale and retail houses of the
large cities employ talented men at big
salaries to attend to their advertising
alone, and the men who want the beet
positions in the counting rooms of news
papers must combine fine boldness quali
fications with the talent that wins suo-
desa in the editorial chair.—Yenowine’e

How He Was Brought to See the Error
of HU Ways.
“Hellor cried the white haired pas
senger, as his red whiskered friend en
tered the car at Cumberland street.
“Glad to see yon. But what's the mat
ter with you? Going to lose your fort
une or your sleep?”
“Been on a jury,” briefly answered
the red whiskered man.
“That’s lough,” remarked the white
haired passenger, with a glance of deep
sympathy. “Couldn’t agree. Is that it?”
“Yes,” mournfully replied the other.
“ffm. Well, old fellow. I can sym
pathize with you. I've been there.
Hardest job I ever tackled in my life.
How long were you out?”
“About sixteen hours.”
“Why, you had a picnic,” cheerfully
commented the white haired passenger.
“I was on a jury ten years ago. They
kept ns out three days and three nights.
One cuss wouldn’t give in, so the judge
tried to starve us out.”
“Didn’t get anything to eat?" inter
rupted the auburn bounded mouth.
“Not a bite,” was the answer. “Not
even water, though nobody asked* for
that. There were five flasks of whisky
in the crowd and they didn't go very far,
for we wasted three of ’em trying to con
vert the fellow who held out. The cross
eyed constable at the door got tired and
passed in some shooting irons. We
tried them, but the case wouldn’t budge.
At last we borrowed a rope and decided
to tie him up and gag him while we
went into court aud gave a verdict The
constable was with us, I telPyou. Well,
sir, when that fellow saw the rope he
caved. Got an idea we-were about to
hang him. He expected to be shot, hut
believed he wasn’t, tor the reason that
the pistols would make -so much noise.
However, he came over to our side just
as we were about to gag him and said;
‘“Gentlemen, I don’t mind being
starved to death or shot down like a
man, hut I object to having my enemies
going around after the funeral saying
that I died like a horse thief. The pris
oner is not guilty.’
“And that,” continued the white haired
passenger, “is what I call doing jury
duty.”—Brooklyn Eagle.
Few people have suffered more severely
from dyspepsia than Mr. E. A. McMahon, a
well known grocer of Staunton, Va He says:
“ Before 18781 was in excellent health, weigh
ing over 200 pounds. In that year an ailment
developed Into aente dyspepsia, and soon I
was reduced to 162 pounds, suffering burning
sensations in the stomach,
palpitation of the heart,
nausea, and Indigestion.
I could not sleep, lost all
heart in my work, had fits of melancholia, and
for days at a time I would have welcomed
death. Fbeeame morose, rJlen and irritable,
and for eight years life was a burden. 1 tried
many physicians aud many remedies. One day
a workman employed by me suggested that
I take a am % Hood’s

sia. I did so, and before taking tbe whole ot
a bottle I began to feel like a new man. The
terrible pains to which I bad been subjected,
ceased, the palpitation of the heart subsided,
my stomach became easier, nausea disap
peared, and my entire system began to
tonenp. With returning
strength came activity of
mind and body. Before
the fifth bottle was taken
I had regained my former weight and natural
condition. I am today well and I ascribe it
to taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla.'
