For Richness, Permanency of color,
Beauty of Finish, Durability, etc, they
are second to none. Patent Gloss Roof
Paint, for tin roofs, warranted to stand
the heat of summer and the frosts of win

is applied cold like other paint, and will
harden in few hours on any kind of
metal roofs, presenting black an glossy

How Watches are Made.

In SOLID GOLD WATCH, aside from The
necessary thickness for engraving and
polishing, a large proportion of metal is
needed only to stifen and hold the en-
graved portions in place, and supply
strength. The surplus gold is actually
needless. In James Boss Patent Gold
Watch Cases this waste is saved, and
soidity and strength increased by sim
pie process, at one-half the cost A plate
ofsclid gold is soldered on each side of a
plate of hard nickel composition metal,
and the three are then passed between pol
ished steel rollers From this the casos,
backs, centers, bezels, etc, are cut and
shaped by dies and formers. The gold is
thick enough to admit of all kinrs o.
chasing, engraving and engine turning
These cases have besa worn perfectly
smooth by use without removing the
gold. This is the only case made under
this process. Each case is ACCOMPANIED
with valid guarantee sgued by tie
manufacturers warranting it to ruL 20
years. $50, 600 of these cases now carried
in the United States and Canada. Largest
and oldest factory. Established 1854.

A Doubtful Story ola Wild
Man.

From along the line Of the West
ern and Atlantic railroad for some
days reports have reached this city
of a wild man being seen. One day
last week he was seen near Carriers
vile devouring the remains of dead
horse. He was perfectly nude, and
before he left the carcass he skinned
it and encircled bis body with the
skin. His beard is four or five feet
long, and his hair hung 10 wild con-
fusion below his shoulders. He was
tall and strongly built, and had the
air of a perfect demon. Tuesday he
was seen near Chicamauga, six miles
from this city, eating the carcass of
dead hog. Last night he boarded
a freight train on the road, and ter
rified the crew by his presence, but
they were enabled, by careful man
agement, to secure him in a car, and
carried him to Gainesville, where he
was lodged in Jail. lie wore nothing
but horseskin, and on his little
finger a gold ring was imbedded in
his flesh. He will not speak word,
His identity is deep mystery. The
same creature has been seen roaming
in the woods in the vicinity of Ac-
worth, Ca, within the last ten days,
where he created much alarm by his
actions, and attempts were made
to capture him without avail-Chat'

The Bad and worthless

is especially true of family medicine,
and it is positive proof that the remedy
initiate. is Of the highest value. AS soon

whole World that Hop Bitters was the
purest, best and most valuable medicine
on earth. many limitations sprang up ard
began 10 steal the notices in which the
press and the people of the country had
expressed the merits of II. b., and in
every way trying to induce suffering in
valids to use their stuff instead, expecting
to make money ON the credit and good
name Of II B. Many others started nos
trums put up in similar style TO Il. B
with variously d vised names in which
I he word Hop or Hops were used in

we're the same as Hop Bitters All such
pretended remedies or cures, no matter
what their style or name Is, and especi-
ally those with the word Hop or
Hops in their name or in any way
way connected with them or their name,
are limitations or couuterfeits. Beware
of them. Touch none of them. Use moth

label Trust nothing else. Druggists

Cases of InsantGy-2ad and LudfcrOus
 Scenes in Court.
 CHICAGO, Nov. 30.-The saddest case pre- scented in the insane court to-day was that of Mrs. Leonara Nixon. It took several bailiffs to get her into the room at first. Her hus band, William A. Nixon, was lately arrest ed for manufacturing @ frauduIent patent medi- cine and now lies in the county jail awaiting the action of the grand jury. His arrest so preyed on his wife's mind that it has driven her crazy. She had an idea that to atone for her husbands crime she would have to sacrifice their little girl Ethel. Nixon testi- fed that he kneW nothing of her insanity until this morning. When she was taken out of court and had to separate from her husband heartrending scene ensued. Mrs. Nixon screamed for her little girl and had to be removed by force.
 William Smith, proprietor of a hotel and livery stable at 43 East Kinzie street, present. ed the strangest and most lHdicrous appear ance of any of the crazy people. He has be- come known the ''Insaue Dude'' As he sat in court he daintily tapped the floor with light cane. His dress was 8 brilliant pea cock green coat and vest of the latest cut, dark knickerbockers with light blue bows at tached, black yarn stockiogs and jointed shoes with silver buckles Mir. Smith seemed to enjoy the situation and Uttered auGibly at some of tho testimony. He thinks he is next to God, and his insanity has been of seven. weeks duration. It was caused by being struck on the head by 6 stone some years ago. He was sent to lief ferson.
