Whenever you hear man in bus
mess say that it don't pay to adyer-
tise, you may set it down that he
don't know what he is talking about,
aud if he has succeeded it has been
an accident. If there is no COMPETE
ton and man don't care to extend
his business beyond small trade
which he would get anyway, then we
say advertising don't pay, but in a
live town it will help any business
whether there is competition or not.
Let two business houses start up at
the same time, in the same line, with
the same capital, and one adyertises
literally and judiciously, and the
other not at all, and ninety-nine
times in hundred the advertiser
will succeed much better than the
one that doa't. - GaiassvtRe Eagle

Mr.. James McCrea killed two Of
the largest rattlesnakes on D. F.
Faust's place near the city Wednes-
day, that are usually found about
here. He tackled them with sticks
and fence rails first, but soon seeing
that it was an unequal fight, he went
for his gun and shot them. The larg-
est measured eight feet in length and
had twenty rattles, while the other
measured seven feet and sported
eighteen.-Americus Recorder.

There are some people who can
never see the difference between
earnestness and buster. The latter
raises more dust and makes more
noise. We are not sure that it does
not get more praise, The former is
more quiet, but it holds on. Its Wis
ions take longer and wider sweeps.
1t is thoughtful in the adaptation Of
means to ends. Be earnest, but don't
buster. 1t is to earnestness that the
worlds progress is mainly due.

PRACTICAL EDUCATION.

The principal on which the man.
ual training system is based is that
he education of the hands and a
the head SHOULD go on together. The
object Of training the intellect is to
enable it to investigate, to compre-
bend, and to plan. The purpose in
training the hands is to facilitate the
execution of what the mind plans.
and also to assist the mind in com
pretending more quickly and thor
oughly what it investigates. The
training of the mind in the schools
is general. The scholar who grad
yates from the high school is not
qualified, without further training,
to become a lawyer, a physician, Il
college professor, or to fill any other
position requiring specific prepare
ton; but ha has the foundation SOL
idly laid on which the superstructure
of special instruction can be firmly
and speedily erected. The graduate
from manual training school is not
qualified to become at once skilled
mechanic in any particular branch,
but he has acquired the foundation
principles Of all mechanical knowl-
edge and practical mechanical skill.
He has learned the nature of tools
and how to handle them skillfully,
lie has ascertained by practical ex-
perience as well as theoretical study,
the qualities of wood and iron and the
methods Of working them. He has
found out how to do things, and, at
the same time, why they should be
done in a particular way. lie has
come to "think with his fingers and
his head and hands work simulta-
neously and with a common purpose.
The scholar whose education has
been confined to his intellect finds
his hands ineffective to carry out the
devices of his brain or to test their
practicability. The workman skilled
with his hands, but without mental
education, is unable to devise i'm
provements that would tighten his
labors and improve his fortunes.
Each has been imperfectly educated
because one side-the practical or
the theoretical-has been neglected.
He who has received both mental
and manual training, who goes out
into the world with well-flled mind
and well-trained hands, has great adj
vantage over the mere book-learned
scholar or the imperfectly educated
workman. No matter what lire of
lite he may take up, whether he sets
out to be lawyer, physician, teacher,
merchant, mechanic or any other
profession or ayocation, he is better
equipped for his work than his com
petitor who has had but head train
ing, or the one who had acquired
mechanical skill without mental edu-
cation.

In Jackson, Miss, few evenings
ago, the citizens gathered enmasse
and raised the $4,000 necessary to
secure the investment of $4,000
Eastern capital in a wool and cotton
mill. That is, stock to the amount OF
$50, 900 WIS subscribed by response
bic parties. More could have been
had if necessary. Jackson has pop
ulation of 5000 one half of whom
are negroes. The city has no water
power to utilize in new enterprise
has no means of Communication by
water with producers or with the out
side world. But the men who put
their aocumuiations into that $4,000
believe that even with these two dis
advantages the enterprise will be a
success. Why not Mariettans imi-
tate such example?

Frank Graf, hearty young citi-
zen of Rockville, Pa, bet that he
could eat a pint OF ice cream in half
a minute. He won, gulping down
the cream in huge swallows. Then
he bet that he could eat three large
ginger cakes, that together weighed
half a pound, in one minute. He de-
voured two of them, and was on the
third, when he suddenly dropped to
the floor, dead.

Francis r. Brooks, of Chicago,
formerly a student at Harvard col
lege, has commenced suit against
the college to recover $4,000 dam
ages. Brooks was engaged in per-
forming an experiment in the chemi-
cal laboratory, when a retort, con-
tanning sulphuric acid, which he was
using, exploded, and young Brooks
was terribly burned. The hair of his
eyelids was burned of and his face
otherwise mutilated and torn, the
disfgurements being permanent. 1t
is claimed by the plaintiff that the
experiment was being performed UNI
der the direction of a professor and
that he supposed he was working in
safety and that through the care
lessness Of the professor in charge,
the accident occurred.

FACTS PREJUDICE

6AO y VS. n6OOVuOE
Prejudice is hard to combat. 1t cannot be
overcome in day. More than likely it wasn't
formed hastily. Indeed it may have been
gradually strengthening its hold for years.
Forinstance, some folks believe Rheumatism
cannot be cured. Their fathers believed SO
before them. So did their grandfathers:
Now, RHEUMATISM CAN BE
CURED, notwithstanding this prejudice,
but the trouble is to make people think so.
The only wayne know to meet popular un-
belief is to state the PLAIN FACTS, and
then present the POSITIVE PROOFS
that they are facts. 1t is a fact that the
RUSSIAN RHEUMATISM CURE
not only relieves but banishes Rheumatic
Pain. There is positive proof of it too. 1t
comes from those who have suffered untold
agony with Rheumatism and have been COM
pletely cured by this remedy. All who have
tried it have had this experience. Some of
them permit US to print their testimony. 1t
makes quite little book, which we send free
toany who are interested enough to ask forit.
A complete Russian Rheumatism Cure,
costs 81. So If mailed, Ioc. additional. If
registered, Ioc. more. You'll never need but
one, so the price isn't high. Who wouldn't
give 81. so to get rid of Rheumatism
As yet it cannot be found the stores, but can be
had only by enclosing the amount above, and

could do the same as Admiral Bald
win did and take a smaller vessel be-
longing to the Turkish government.
Thus the project for brilliant scene
on the ship was overturned, although
Minister Winston exer,ed all his pow
er Of persuasion, not only upon the
Sultan, but upon others high in auth
ority, to obtain special permit for
the Pensacola to anchor off the Golden
Horn. According to the terms of the
agreement Miss Calhoun was to be
married, il on the Pensacola, at Con
stantinople by the middle of May or,
if this failed, then at Teheran, the capi-
tai of Persia, by the 1st of June 1886.
An elaborate trousseau has been pre-
pared and accompanied by few
friends the bride-elect is now en- route
for Constantinople, where Minister
Winston is anxiously waiting
Meanwhile the American colony at
Constantinople is very much interested
IN the wedding arrangements and the
probabilities are that Minister Winston
will make good his boasts to have
reception which will make the Turks
open their eyes, for it is understood
that Constantinople will be the scene
of the wedding. The eldest son of
Minister Winston accompanies his faith
er and the inference is that the match
meets with his approval, as he is a
prominent figure in the preliminaries.
Minister Winston halls from Chicago
and it must be admitted that his pres
ent scheme for cutting dash among
the Eastern monarchies is decided
Improvement on his frs. attempt.
When he was given tho Persian mis-
sion by the president, some one threw
a damper on the Oriental splendor In
view by mentioning the fact that our
department of state did not permit its
foreign representatives to appear at
courts abroad in any rcgalia but the
plain North American dress suit This
would appear rather tame on back
ground of Persian luxury, so the new
diplomat, by connivance with Gov.
Oglesby, of Illinois, devised plan by
which he could be appointed colonel'
IF an Illinois militia regiment, a posi-
ton that combines Incidence with the
glamour of martial regimentals, gold
lace, sword, &c. At the same time his
son, who was to be minor feature of
the American pageant at Tehersn, was
to be assigned subaltern's rank in the
same fierce Illinois battalion, and to-
gether father and son could then shine
in their Persian setting at court.
Somehow the newspapers got hold of
the project and Gov. Oglesby with
held the martial commissions.
