Bi-aiien, of my dear, my precious boy,
Source my heart's deep, anxious joy,
What blessings shall I now invoke for (hee
Whose holy impress on thy soul shall last
through time and eternity) 1
Shall 1 desire thy hopeful life a cloudless
Thy one fragile to bo,

That rude tempestuous sent billows

And dash in maddened fury o'er thy soul?
Tha ohes ’ « n<l ^hor crown thy
And heaven exempt thee from pain and
strife?
That sorrows, such us other mortals know,
Ne’er touch thee with their wail and woe?
Thy cup of joy and bliss be overrunning
o’er,
Till thou art satiate and exclaim "No
more!”
And shall I ask that every lioon you prize
Be now and henceforth over realized?
Ah! no, my boy, for thee a greater mead I
crave,
One that shall bless thy soul beyond the
First grave. in early youth,
“His then, with spirit meek,
kingdom thee and its righteousness” I’d
have seek.
And may thy influence holy, be a beacon bright,
Shedding on it bo all thy a heavenly task] each light.
And may willing day,
To cheer the weary traveler on ills way.
And when the waiting angels come
To bear, on snowy wings, thy spirit, home,
Oh ! may they find thy lamp all trimmed
Reflecting and bright, tile dazzling splendor of heav¬
en’s Great Light.

One of Two Ways.
The bladder was created for one
purpose, namely, a receptable for
the urine, and as such it is not liable
to any form of disease except by ono
of two waps. The first, way is from
imperfect action of the kidneys.
The second way is from careless lo¬
cal treatment of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause of bladder
troubie. So the womb, like tlio
bladder, was created for one pur¬
pose, and if not doctored too much
is not liable to weakness or disease,
except in rare cases. It is situated
back of and very close to the blad¬
der, therefore any pain, disease or
inconvenience manifested in tlio
kidneys, back, bladder or urinary
passages is often, by mistake, attrib-
ua/ted to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort. The error is
easily made and may lie as easily
avoided. To find out correctly set
your urine aside for twenty-four
hours ; a sediment or settling indi¬
cates kidney or bladder trouble.
The mild and the extraordinary ef¬
fect of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp Root,
the great kidney and bladder reme ¬
dy, is soon realized. If you need a
mediejno you should have tlio best.

Candler’s Grand Stand Play.
Every fling made as Judge Atkin¬
son because he does not resign his
place on the railroad commission is
a reflection upon some of Georgia’s
ablest mul purest statesmen, whose
memory is embalmed in the hearts
of the people. Alex Stephens, Bon
Hill, General Colquitt, General Gor¬
don and Henry G. Turner did not
consider it improper to hold ono
office while seeking another, and
only the fact, that, the law requires
the Secretary of State to keep his
office open every day except Sun¬
day convinced the one-idead pigeon
rooster of its impropriety. He was
forced to resign to gain time to mako
a canvass, and liis grand stand play
in connection with that resignation
should win no credit.
I was reading an advertisement
of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy in the Worcester
Enterprise recently, which leads mo
to write this. I can truthfully say
I never used any remedy equal to it
for colic and diarrhoea. I have
never had to use more than one or
two doses to cure the worst case
with myself or children.—W. A

A little boy asked for a bottle of
“get up in the morning as fast as
you can.” Tlio druggist recognized
a household name for DeWitt’s Lit¬
tle Early Risers and gave him a bot¬
tle of those famous little pills for
constipation, sick headache, liver
and stomach troubles.
Industrious men nro poor, not be¬
cause they fail to make money, but
becauso they fail to take caro of it.
Wanted— Everybody and his wife
to go to W. E. Saunders and get a
bottle of Dr. Tiehenor’s Antiseptic,
the most wonderful healing com¬
pound of the nineteenth century. It
preserves the flesh, prevents inflam¬
mation or suppuration and hoala
like magic. Pleasant its iierfume
and stainless as rose water.

makes no entry on the authority of
“It is said,” or “They say.”
The farmer, the mechanic and the
bicycle rider are liable to unexpected
cuts and bruises. DeWitt’s Witch
Hazel Salve is the host thing to keep
on hand. It heals quioklyly, and is
a well known euro for piles. W. E.
