A Tramp’s IMoqnent Lecture.
A tramp asked for a free drink in
a saloon. The request was granted,
and, when in the act of drinking the
proffered beverage, one of the young
men present exclaimed:
“Stop! Make ns a spaa'd*. If is
poor liquor that doesn’t loosen a
man’s tongue.”
The tramp hastily swallowed down
the drink, and as the rich liquor
coursed through his blood he
straightened ' himself up ami stood
before them with a grace and dignity
that all his rags and dirt could not
obscure.
“Gentlemen.” he said, “I look to¬
night at you and myself, and it
seems to me I look upon the picture
of my lost manhood. This bloated
face was once as young and hand¬
some as yours. This shambling
figure once walked proudly as yours,
a man in the world of men. T, too,
once had a home and friends and
position. J had a wife as beautiful
as an artist’s dream, and I dropped
the priceless pearl of her honor and
respect in the wine cup, and Cleopa¬
tra-like, saw it dissolve and quaffed
it down in the brimming draught. I
hud children as sweet and lovely as
the flowers of spring and saw them
fade and die under I.h6 blighting
curse of a drunken father. I had a
home where love lit the flame upon
the alter and ministered before it,
and I put out the holy fire and
darkness and desolation reigned in
its stead. 1 had aspirations and
ambitions tha soared as high
as the morning star and broke
and bruised their beautiful wings,
and at last strangled them that I
might hear their cries no more.
Today I am a husband without a
wife, a father without a child, a
tramp with no home to call his own.
aman in whom every good impulse
is dead. And all swallowed up in
the maelstrom of drink.”
The tramp censed speaking. The
glass fell from his nerveless fingers
shivered into a thousand fragments
on the floor. The swinging doors
pushed open and shut again, and
when the little group looked up
the tramp was gone.-—Few Oileans

Our Burdens.
We areihese that mare!) through
a wilderness, aiubeaeh one carries'
some burden on bis back—of toil, of
sorrow, of sin, and in the caravan
some go grumbling and complaining
all their life because of the' burden
they are bearing, and some try to
get their burden off slyly on to
another’s shoulders, and some bear
bravely their own burdens and march
uncomplainingly on ; but some, the
noblest of t hem all, are they wl o
stand erect, bearing their own bur¬
den, then creep up behind others,
burdens 1 like themselves,wand put
their shoulders beneath the burden
of their fellows and lift it, lightening
the load. Blessed are those who
know how so to bear their own
burdens joyfully to bear the burdens
of Others also.— Lyman Abbott.
Kobbcd tlio Grave.
A stilltling incident, of which
John Oliver of Philadelphia, was.the
subject, is narrated by him as fol¬
lows: “I was in a most dreadful
condition. My shin was almost yel¬
low, eyes sunken, tongue coated, a
pain continually m back and sides,
no appetite-—gradually growing physi¬
weaker day by day. Three
cians had given me up. Fortunate¬
ly a friend advised trying Electric
Bitters; and to my great joy matte and
surprise the first bottle an
improvement. 1 continued their
use for three weeks and am now a
well man. I know they saved my
life, and robbed the grave of another
victim.” Only 5oc, guaranteed, at
any drug store.
If your bicycle becomes frightened
and relieves itself of your avoinlu-pois,
apply Dr. Tichcnor’s Antisepic im¬
mediately—not to the bicycle—but
to that part of your anatomy most
feelingly affected by the law of grav¬
itation. You’ll be delighted with the
result of the application. Keep a
bottle in your “kit” for personal re
pairs. Only 50 cts. at druggists and
country merchants.
Better have a good medicine and

Georgia keeps on educating more
lawyers than there are clients, more
doctors than there are patients,
more preachers Ilian there are con¬
gregations, while the east is turning
out men who can build and run
factories and railroads. Georgia is
the devil on long-eared politicians her

Athens Banner; The cork leg
and boot of Gen. Santa Anna have
laid in the war museum of the state
house at Springfield, ML, ever since
the conclusion of the war with Mex¬

relics be returned lo the Mexican
government. There are a number
of old Oonfeuerafe battle flags in l ife
hands of the United States govern¬
ment: at Washington. Why should
not this spirit of returning war rel¬
ics be extended to delighted our own people’
who would be to have
their old battle flags returned?
The re is no reason why these flags,
should not be returned, but it
nevertheless suits the purpose of
those in authority to refuse to return
them.
