Kenneth Bazemore had the good
fortune to receive a small bottle of
Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and
Diairhuea Remedy when three mem
bers of his family were sick with dys
entery. This one small bottle cured
them all and he had some left which
he gave to Goe. W. Baker, a promi
nent merchant of the place, Lewiston,
N. C., anjl it cured him of the same
complaint, When troubled with dys
entery, diarrhoea, colic or cholera
morbus, give this remedy a trial and
you will be more than pleased with
the result. The praise that naturally
follows its introduction and use has
made it very popular. 25 and 50 cent

“For God and Home and Nation

‘A DRUNKARD’S APPEAL’’
Lilian A. Willcox and Lord
Rosebery have a say on
the Subject. Bishop
Ireland says he
means business
A DJ UN <Alll)’s APPEAL.
A young num entered the bar
room of a village tavern and called
for a drink.
“No," said the landlord, “you
have had the delirium tremens
once, and I can’t sell you any
, m >re.’’
He stepped aside to make room
for a couple of young men that
had just entered, and the landlord
waited on them very politely. The
other had stood by, silent and sul
len, and when they had finished, he
walked up to the landlord, and
thus addressed him:
“Six years ago, at their age, ]
stood where those two young ,men
are now. I was a man of fair pros
pects. Now, at the age of twenty
eight, I am a wreck—body and
mind. You led me to drink. In
this room I formed the habit that
has been my ruin. Now sell me a
few more glasses and your work
will be done! I shall soon be out
of the way; there is no hope for
me. But they can be saved. Do not
sell it to them. Sell it to me and
let me die, and the world will be
rid of me; but for heaven’s sake
sell no more to them.”
The landlord listened, pale and
trembling. Setting down his de
canter, he exclaimed: “God help
ing me, it is the last drop I will
sell to anyone!’’ And he kept his
w < >rd.
RUM AND REVENUE.
On one occassion William E. Glad
stone, the foremost statesman of this
age, said, “The question of revenue
Jmust never stand in the way of
(needed reforms.
I Besides, with a sober population,
not waisting their earning*, I shall
know where to obtain the revenue,”
Tuese ringing words should echo all
over Georgia this year.
We must elect a legislature pled
ged to give us a prohibition law for
the entire state. The dry countries
a’one can elect such a legislature if
ihey wiii,
by so doing they will help liquor rid
den sections beyond their limints and
make themselves several degrees
dn er than they are.
LEADERS, BY LILLIAN A. WILC )X
All Christains are trying to
climb the ladder that leads to the
pearly gates. Let the question be,
are the boys and girls helping or
hindering those about them in
this toilsome ascent?
A wide ’adder should be drawn
from the bottom to the top of the
blackboard. It will look better if
it slants from corner to c irr.er. hav
ing the rounds parallel with the
top of the board. At the bottom
write “The World,” and have the
“Rock of Ages” for the ladder to
rest on.
Call the ladder the “Christian
Life,” writing the name up the
outside. Write “Heaven” at the
top. Straight marks resting on
the rounds will represent the peo
ple climbing. Make many of them
especially on the lower part, tell
ing the children that many start
to climb who never get to the top,
and that some of the reasons why
there are not as many near the top
as at the bottom will soon be a
seriou? menace.
I go so far as to say this, that, if
the State does not soon control
the liquor traffic. the liquor traffic
will soon control the State —Lord
Rosebery.
“I MEAN BUSINESS.”
Archbishop Ireland in a recent
address before the Minnesota To
tal Abstinence Association, said:
“We thought we meant business
years ago in this warfare against
drink, but I hope God will forgive
us for our weakness, for we
wept into the batlefieid without
sufficient resolution.
We labored under the fatal mis
take that we could argue out the
question with the liquor sellers.
We imagine there was some
power in | moral suasion; that
when we should show them the
evil of their ways they would
absndom the traffic.
We have seen there is no hope
of improving in any shape or
form the liquor traffic, There is
nothing now to be done but to wipe
if out completely.
I have lost too much of nay time
striving in the past torepair 1 lie fearful
wrong of the drink traffic. I ha w e lost
too much time in speaking of total
abstinence in hull am’pulpit to men
who, while listening, were with uh■
but who. out in the street would be
invited by the saloon keeper to com*
and take a drink, aud forget their
resolution.
While, some of us are gi owing old
a Hl do not in bend to be thro wing away
• >ur titre fin arguing with people who
will not be converted, and I for one
am going to go in with terrible
earnestnt ss in the future in this war
against liquor in all shapes. I mean
business this time.”

SIGNING DECLARATION.
Flies Pestered the Fathers of the
Republic as they Created it.
Jefferson was fond of telling a
story which illustrates in a forci
ble way th» i nportanc | hat absurd
ly insignificant matters may
sometimes assume, save the Phila
delphia Press.
When the deliberative body that
gave the world the declaration of
independence was in session its
proceedings were conducted in a
hall close to which wm>-situated 8
livery stable.
The weather was warm, and
from the stable came swarms of
flies that lighted on the legs of the
honorable members, aud, biting
through' the thin silk stockings
then in fashion gave infimted an
noyance.
It was no uncommon sigh!, said
Jefferson, to see a member making
a speech with a large handkerchief
in hand, pausing at every moment
to thrash the flies away from his
thinly protected cal ves.
The opinion of rhe body was
not unanimous in favor of the
document, aud, under other cir
cumstances, discussion might have
been protracted for days, if not
weeks, but the flies were intolera
ble.
Efforts were made to find anoth
er hall, free from the pests but in
vain. As the weather becaane
warmer the flies grew worue, aud
the flapping of hauderchiefa was
heard all over the hall as an ac
companiment to the voices of the
speakers.
In despair, at last some one sug
gested that matters might be hur
ried so that the body might ad
journ and get away from the flies,
There were a few mild pro‘est, but
no one heeded them. The immortal
declaration was hurriedly copied, and
with handkerchiefs in hand fighting
the flies as they came, the members
hastened to the table to sign the au
thentic copy and leave the flies in the
lunch,
Had it not been for the livery sta
ble and its inmates* there is no tell
ing when the document would have
been completed, but it certainly
would not have been signed on the

THE GREAT CATHEDRAL
As he saw it, Wi'hja few Re*
marks About the Wonder
ful Clock, Which of Its
self Would make it
Famous.
The Cathedral was f uuded in
1015 and it was nearly three huu
died years before it was complet
id. It is built of sandstone that
is cut and curved into many va
rious forms, and is very delicate
and beautiful. The west point it
t xceedingly rich in scu'p ure, stat
ues etc
The building shows many sign*
of the tim-s i< has passed through.
As it i« said it was struck no less
than 1,000 times during the Ger
man bombardment in 1870.
On the arches of the en.fance
are carved scenes of the Creation
nd Redemption. Above the en
trance is a beautiful window about
50 feet in diameter; on the north
west corner of the building is a
very beautiful but frail looking
spire rising to the beigth of 469
feet.
We ascended to the platform,
which is 216 fest above the ground,
and had a splendid view of the
city with its many quaint old
houses with their very steep roofs,
that contain 3 to 4 floors, and on
the top of many of the chimneys
can be seen the storks sitting ou
their nests.
It is considered good luck for
them to build on ones house, so
they are never molested
Noon time was coming very soon,
so we deceuded to the interior,
which consists principally of a
nave of beautiful proportions 260
feet long, 140 wide and 100 feet
high.
The total length of the building
is 350 feet. The roof is supported
by seven arches with clusters of
pillars. But it is now about thirty
minutes until noon, and we make
our way to the south wing to see
lhe wonderful astronomical clock.
This clock was built about 50 or
60 years ago, to replace the old
one. Porticos of the old one bein
used in the construction of the
present one.
The clock is 50 feet high by 30
feet wide. It indicates the hours,
halves and quarters, when the bells
are struck by small figures. A
child strikes the first quarter, a
youth the half and,a man the third
quarter.
On its face is a disc indicating the
holidays of the year. It reg
ulates its self at leap year. It gives
the phases of the moon, the eclipses,
and etc.
Seven golden balls of different sizes
represent the planets. Mercury
takes 88 days to make the circuit.
Saturn 1,747 days, the hands on the
clock now point to 12. noon, right in
the center of the clock stands Father
time, representing death, with a ham
mer, he sounds the hour.
A little figure some distance below
him now turns his hour glass, above
all this is a gallery, and in the mid
dle is a igure of Christ.
Out comes the apostles one at a
time, each stops before the Savior
turns his face to him bows aud
received his blessing from bis ex
tended hand and goes his way un
til Judas comes and ho turns his
face in the opposite direction.
High up «u a pedestal stands
the cock, he raises his head flopi
his wings and crows. This he
does three tim*s and it is all over.
