The original organ in Christ Church Ca
thedral, Oxford, England, was torn out and
destroyed by the Puritans in 1644, and for
nearly fifty years they prevented another
being put in. Finally their prejudices wore,
away, and a second organ was built, which
served from 1680 until last summer, when a
third was placed in the ancient edifice.
The thimble is a Dutch invention, first
brought to England in 1695 by John Loft
ing, who began its manufacture at Islington,,
near London, gaining thereby both hono'
and profit. Its name was derived from the
words thumb and bell, being for a long time
called tbumble, and only latelv thimble.
Old records say that thimbles werefirst worn
on the thumbs.
While sympathy is sought for General
Grant on account of the failure of his Wall
street speculations and his losses thereby,
which may compel the sale of his medals
tinder execution, it may be proper to call
the attention of the American public to the
fact that such is the destitution of the aged
and invalid daughter-in-law of General
Andrew Jackson that she has lately been |
■compelled to pledge the gold medal voted
the hero of New Orleans by Congress, as
well as some other souvenirs of the Hermi
tage, for means of subsistence.
The German War Department is trying an
interesting experiment. A Westphalia
company of soldiers has been separated
from the rest for the purpose of testing the
new diet to be given the men during a fort
night, within which time they are to go
fully equipped for six hours daily through a
regular field service exercise. The food
consists chiefly of preserves and material
such as is least exposed to deterioration in a
campaign, and may in case of need be car
ried by the men in their haversacks. Strict
watch is kept that none of the men procure
food outside, in order to test both their
endurance and physical condition, and at
the same time the nutritious qualities of the
provisions.
Catting Evidence to Enable Him to Marry
Somebody Who Can’t Skate.
Detroit Free Press.
“And don’t you skate, little girl?” he
asked, as he sat down beside her.
“Oh, no, sir.”
“But you can learn ”
“I gues= I could, but I don’t want to.”
“And do you come he-e just to watch the
skater.-?”
“Oh, no; I c-me to watch Mrs. B.”
“Who’s she?”
“She’s papa’s second wife. He don’t want
her to come, but she will do it.”
“And why do you watch her?”
“Well, papa wanted her to promise that
she wouldn’t lean on anybody when she was
skating with ’em, and that she wouldn't
flirt when she was resting, but she wouldn’t
promise, and so I came to watch her. These
short marks are when she leans and these
long ones when she fl rts.”
“And you show them all to your father?”
“Yes, and he dates them aid puts them
away, and by and by we’d have enough to
get a divorce on and marry somebody who
can’t skate.”
“It’s all overtown,” said the Arab. “What?”
asked the old man, his eyebr ws bristling
with curi sity. “Mud,” said the younster,
while his nv-uth went clear around his ears
in a grin, ‘ Right you are,” said the old man.
“With the mud come colds and coughs, and
you know the remedy.” “Dr. Bull's Cough
Syrup,” rejoined the boy. “Kight you are

Strange World This.
And some funny people in it, too. You
have all come in contact with s r me that
are never satisfied. They grumble from
morning until night—we heard a man
even grumble in bed. That man would
grumble at any thing and every thing,
without reason; but this week we heard
a gentleman grumble with good reason.
He bought a suit of clothes and paid a
good old fashioned price for it, and, hap
pening to come into the “ Famous,” he
was shown a suit of the same class of
goods, aud our price was $8 less than he
had paid. That gentleman had good rea
son to find fault, and grumbled at his
bad luck; but it will be a good lesson to
him. and he will buy of the “Famous”
next time. We are through taking stock,
and now comes our annual clearing sale.
We will sell you anything in our line at
manufacturers’" cost. Our prize system
has worked charmingly, and we made
dozens of people happy by giving them
prizes. We will keep it up. Call, and
we will not only give you better goods,
cheaper than you can buy any where, but
give a prize to every twentieth purchaser
in the bargain. “Famous,” 140 Congress

“Only an Advertisement,
I
! Don’t Believe It.”
One halt the public never read an adver
tisement, and those who do don’t believe
half that advertisers say. No wonder, eP her,
for gross exaggeration and misrepresenta
tion is now the rule, and square matter of
fact statements are seldom seen in modern ad:
vertlsements. This is unfortunate for legiti
mate advertisers. Thus, when we advertised
the purchase of $50,000 wortli of CHICKER
ING PIANOS, in October last, it was said to
be “Only an Advertisement,” aud hence not
true. But all the same I’J WAS TRUE. We
find, that in advertising the square truth
answers our purpose best of all, and when we
make a statement we mean It to be a true
one. To those who do not know the magni
tude of our trade or the immense popularity
of the CHICKERING PIANOS, it may seem
improbable that we should buy $50,000 worth
at one purchase, but, “facts are stubborn
things,” and in this case they are all on out
side. We can’t show the Pianos, for eager
buyers have appropriated fully one-third of
them, but we can show the contract with
CHICKERING & SONS, and the Invoices,
which certainly is evidence indisputable. Os
course, all these Pianos did not come to Sa
vannah. We are Southern Wholesale Agents
for the CHICKERING PIANOS with exclu
sive control of Five States and our Eleven
Branch Houses and countless Agencies took
a large number of these Pianos.
Large shipments have been made to Savan
nah, and we expect to sell about FIFTY
direct from our warerooms. Many of our
leading citizens have taken advantage of this
Special Sale, and given us the pleasure of
placing these magnificent Instruments in
their homes. We have now in our ware
rooms a full line of SQUARES, SQUARE
GRANDS, UPRIGHT AND CONCERT
GRANDS, which we offer at Factory prices
for Cash, or on our easy Installment Terms.
The UPRIGHTS with the new metallic
action, seem to be preferred by nearly all
purchasers, and they are certainly the finest
and most perfect Instruments that it is pos
sible to construct. We ask Pianists and Con
noiseures to call and inspect these Superb In

GULLIBILITY.
The wild phantoms and shrieking cries of a worth
less humbug can make money by imposing upon the
credulity and ignorance of an honest public, and the
supply of this species of work seems more than an
adequate demand.
The enunciation of facts-facts that have stood
crucial tests—facts proven by brain force and tangi
ble evidence, should satisfy all laudable enterprises;
but the excrable habit of teaching false ideas and
doctrines for self aggrandizement is truly reprehensi
ble, and should be scorned by all classes.
When we tell the public that B. B. 8., the great
Blood Polson Remedy, contains lodide of Potash as
one of its ingredients, and when we, as old members
of the medical profession, say that lodide of Potash is
not a poison, we think it very presumptive for men
outside of the profession to assert that it is a poison.
The facts do not warrant such a conclusion, and if
those who make the assertion that Potash is a poison
do not know better, they are a set of unenviable ig
noramuses.
As a solid foundation of heavy masonry has been
built for B. B. 8., upon which it is now proudly
perched—the broken arches and fallen columns of
brazen humbugs will soon be in search of fresh
‘cock and bull” ttories and "more printers’ ink, but
merit cannot be downed. Although B. B. B is only
one year old, yet its effect—its magical and peerless
power over all blood, skin and kidney diseases, has
been indelibly enstamped upon the tablets of the
memory of thousands here at home, who have beei
cured after having used hundreds of bottles of other
remedies.
Compared toother remedies, B. B. B. is the radient
sunbeam of midday, flinging its glittering glare to
saddened hearts, while others are pale moonbeams,
pushing along through misty meshes of darkness, in
search of something they can cure.
It cures Blood Diseases and Poisons, Catan*, Old
Ulcers, Scrofula, Rheumatism, Skin Diseases, Kidney
troubles, etc., and we hold a 32-page book full of evi
dence—Atlanta evidence —that cannot be doubted,
proving all we claim. Our certificates are not phnn
tasmagorical, nor far-fetched, but are voluntaiy out
bursts of men and women of Atlanta.
