A WARNING FOR HARALSON COUNTY
BOVS.
A True Story.
A Boy named Samuel Kimball, six¬
teen years old, a chorister boy in St. Ma¬
ry’s Church, Brooklyn, died very recent¬
ly ;it St. John’s Hospital. Almost his
last words were.’ ‘’Let any boy who
smokes cigarettes look at me now
know how much I have suffered, and lie
will never put another in his mouth.”
He was a bright boy, an exquisite singer,
and had many friends. lie lived with
his grandmother and worked in a chan¬
delier factory. Here is the -story as lie
told it to his nurse, Sister Cornelia: “To
me lie confessed that his trouble oiigi
nated from cigarette smoking. Some
days, lie said he smoked twenty ciga¬
rettes. At first he said he kept his
grandmother in ignorance of his indul¬
gence. As he continued to smoke the
appetite grew upon him with such a
force that lie could not choke it off, and
it began to effect his constitution. Why
I asked him, “did you not stop when you
saw what it was bringing you to.” “O
1 could not,’ he replied. ‘If I could not
get to smoke I was almost wild. 1 could
not think of nothing else. That my
grandmother might not suspect me, I
would work extra hours instead of
spending my regular wages for cigaret¬
tes. For months I kept up this excess,
although I knew it was killing me. Then
I seemed to fall to pieces all of a sud¬
den.” His disease took the form of
dropsy in the legs, and was very painful.
Bister Cornelia continues the story:
“During all his sufferings lie never for¬
got what had brought him to this terri¬
ble condition. He kept, asking me to
warn all boys against their use. A few
days before he died he called me to his
bedside and said that lie had not lived in
vain if only those boys who are still alive
would profit by his sufferings and
death.” There is no other form of to¬
bacco so dangerous as cigarettes, because
tlie nicotine in tlie smoke is not absorb¬
ed in the loose tobacco smoke clean up to
the end, but is taken, unlilted and undi¬
luted, into the lungs. It was not the poi¬
son in the paper, but the poison of tobac¬
co which killed Samuel Kimball, and is
ruining the health of thousands of other
palefaced liovs.—Union Signal.

The printing press has made presi¬
dents, killed poets, furnished bustles
for beauties, and polished genius with
criticisms. It lias made the world get up
at roll call every morning, giving the
pulpit lungs of iron and a voice of
steel. It lias set the price on a bushel
of wheat, and made the country post of¬
fice the glimmering goal of the rural
scribe. It has curtailed the power of
kings; graced the pantry shelves and
hurst: It has cover ted bankers into
paupers, and made la a vers of college
oresidents; it lias educated the home¬
less, and robbed (ho pliilosipher of his
reason. It smiles and kicks, and cribs
and'dies, but it can’t be run to suit ev¬
ery body, and the editor’s a fool who
tries.—Ex.
It is quite the fashion now to take De

MY SWEET SALLIE E.
31V A. B. ItKAl'CirAMI*.
' Beside the lowlly Hudson dwells,
A young maiden fair;
And oft wlien the sun is low,
1 to her home repair.
Her'large, full eyes, like to the night .
Are sparkling with love and joy;
IIow fondly do I worship her—
I loved her when a boy.
She’s fairer than the blushing moon,
When first its smile is seen
Upon the distant wooded hills,
Then in the vales between.
No evil tongue can her defame,
Pure as an angel, she;
The fairest maid in ail the land,
Is my Sallie E-.
Oh, Sallie is the sweetest flower
That ever the sun shone on—
The sweetest of sun or shower,
Is now blooming all alone.
When autumn’s skies are lightest blue
And summer’s senes arc past;
When wiid winds rove the woodland
through,
And leaves fall to the blast;
IVben all the fields are robed in brown,
There beats one heart for me.
One wilding flower by forest untouched
Is my own sweet Sallie E-,
Dyspepsia and Indigestion.
In tlieir worst forms are cured by tlie use
of P. P. P. If you are debilitated and
run down, or if you need a tonic to re¬
gain flesh and lost appetite, strength and
vigor, take P. P. P., and you will be
strong and healthy. For shattered con¬
stitutions and lost manhood P. P. P.
(Prickly Ash, Polk Root and Potassium)
is the king of all medicines. P. P. P. is
the greatest blood purifier in tlie world.
For sale by all druggists.
An Exchange is responsible for the
following: Loving husband: “Susan,
don’t spend a cent of my money with
tlie merchant who don’t advertise in
the papers.” Business wife: “Why,
you old goose, I learned better than
to go where I was not invited, long ago.
You would be an old bachelor if you had
not invited mo to be your wife. Catch
me going to a store, without first getting
an invitation. I guess not.”
Criticising A Young Lady.
“She would be a j iretty girl but for one
thing.”
“What’s that?” Asked Chailcy. '
George—“Her face is always covered
with purple and red blotches.”
Charley—“Oh, that.s easily enough dis¬
posed of. Used to be that way myself,
but I caught on to the trouble ouj day,
and got rid of it in no time.”
George—“What was it?”
Charley—“Simply blood eruptions.
Took a short course of P. P. P. I tell
you, it’s the boss blood corrector. The
governor laid rheumatism so bad that you
could hear him holler dear across the
country every time be moved. He tried
it, and you know what an athletic old
gent he is now. If somebody would give
Miss Daisy a pointer, she would thank
them afterwards. All the drug stores sell
it.”
