There are a great many more glass
eyes in nse than is generally imagined.
At one tune n glass eye was q conspicu-
Gus deformity, and many preferred to
do without such an unsightly substitute
for a lost organ of vision. But now there
is such endless variety in color, size and
shape that when a man or a woman
loses an eye n glass substitute can be
provided which will defy detection. II
the muscles are not entirely destroyed
by accident or disease, a glass eye can
be moved to a limited extent so that
there is nc a or squint. Glass ayes
are made principally in Germany, and
there are several secrets connected with
the manufacture, besides which a great
amount of skill and practice is neces-
sary. Recently some have been made

PLAIN History.

Swift's Specific is a simple veg-
etable compound, prepared from
roots gathered freshly from the for
est, and contains nothing of the
mineral kingdom, or any article at
all which comes from the chemists
laboratory.
The formula of the remedy was
obtained from the Greek Indians in
Middle Georgia, by reliable white
meG, who had witnessed the won.
derful cures made by that tribe of
Indians, Of blood diseases. Mr..
Hugh [. Dennari, of Houston
county, Ga, began using Swift's
Specific in 1929, and continued its
use all of his lite, and asserted that
he had never known it to fail to
cure any case of scrotula, blood
faint, or contagious blood poison.
This testimony has been corroborat-
ed every day for years. The pres
ent company was formed in 1879,
and have since made known to the
world the virtues ofSwia's Specific,
and to>day it is sold in every city,
town and country store all over
America, Great Britain and many
other portions Of the world.

MARRIED A MORMON.
Adventures of an 0gisthorpe Lady With
MormoniSm in Utah.

"NVO"'"eS VI M OyieWoFpe Luuy WfH
MormoniSm in Utah.
Between the Glade and Sandy
Cross, in Oglethorpe count V, there
lived Mr.. Jim Cunningham and his
two maiden daughters. The Gun
bingham family we're among the
first settlers of this country, and
are hard working, industrious peo-
pie and good managers.
About year ago an ADVERTISE
ment appeared in paper for a
wife, which one of the Misses Cum
ningham anwered. A correspon-
dence ensued, which eliminated in
a marriage. The new-made bride
went off with her husband, and for
a long time none but the family
heard from her.
Sore time since, HOY ever, this
lady returned to her old home,
bringing with her handsome boy
about Thirteen years old. She did
not speak about her matrimonial
experience save to state that after
marriage she discovered her hus-
band to be q Mormon and he carri>
ed her to Utah. Whether he was
Il polygamist or not we did not
Learn. After living with him for
some time, he decided, with many
other Mormons, to move to Mexico.
as his people are preparing to ennis
CRATE to that country in body, to
escape the so-called persecution
Of the laws of this country. This
lady we refer to positively refused
to accompany him to that country,
and being lome lex she decided to
return to her family in Georgia.
A separation was agreed to, the
husband consenting that his wife
bring with her the boy spoken of,
and which is his child by former
marriage.
On her return home this lady
found that her sister, Miss Manda
Cunningham, had accumulated
quite a nice little fortune, having
made more than $4,000 by farm
ingand running a little store. Miss
Manda is said to almost equal Col.
Jim Smith as a manager, and can
get more work out of hands than
airy other farmer in the neighbor-
hood. She is a fine business wo-
man, too, and has built up a credit
equal to any merchant in the coun-
try. While Miss Manda has work,
ed thin land. she makes large crops
and clears money every year.
The two sisters are now in busi>
ness together, and are doing finely.
They also keep the postoffice atSan-
dy Cross, giving entire satisfaction.
This shows what can be done on
the thin lands OF our section by
work and good management. Here
are two feeble women making more
clear money than even the best men
around. -Elberton Star.

HELPING TO HANG HIMSELF.
0nP0raHei Goodness of an Innocent Koo
on the GdiiowS.

U"f'u'd"ef GOODNESS Of an Innocent Nan
on the Gaiows.
In a handsome mansion situated
IN lonely part Of England there
resided, a few years ago, a maiden
lady of considerable wealth. One
morning she was discovered touJlv
murdered. Her man servant.
named Lee, was suspected, arrested
and convicted on circumstantial
evidence and sentenced TO be
hanged. So conclusive seemed
the evidence against the prisoner
that no attempt whatever was
made on the part of the public to
induce the Home Secretary to ex-
ercIse executive clemency. The
day OF execution having arrived
the prisoner was led forth to suffer
the extreme penalty. The rope
to be used, the texture of which was
silk and hemp, had been, as is Gus
tomary in such cases, tested with
the aid of sand bags and was hot
found wanting. The bolt was drawn
and the prisoner was given a drop
OF eight feet. The ru2e broke.
The prisoner walked, unaided, Nd
the stevs leading to the scaffold
and after the rope had been fixed
again and the moose adjusted
the bolt was drawn for the second
time. The rope broke again.
Lee was by this time considera>
bly, stunned. However after the
lapse of few moments he again
assembled, unaided, the steps and
after doing all in his power to al |
lay the nervousness OF the hangs
man assisted the latter in once |
more fixing the rope. The prs
oner placed himself on the traps
door, the bolt was pulled and the |
CONDEMNED man dropped once more
out of view, The rope parted
for the third time. After consid> |
erabl delay Lee once more placed |
himself in the executioner's hands, |
but that parsonage and the other
officials, Mortified at what seemed |
Divine interposition, refused to
proceed further with the business.
The facts were reported to the
Home Secretary, who at once re-
spited the prisoner, condemming
him to imprisonment for life.
Three years later a woman who
was Lees fellow servant confessed |
on her dying bed that it was she
who killed her mistress. She de-
clared that Lee had no connection
whatever with the affair and stated |
facts strongly confrmatory of her
confession.
Instances may possibly have
occurred in which an equal amount
physical courage has been displays |
ed but, outside of the date of fic> |
ton there cannot be cited single
case in which bravery ever play
ed more conspicuous part than
IN the incident above detailed.

BAUSSET'S PROJECTED AIR SHIP.
What flight Happen on its Successful
con1ofsfion.

What flight Happen on its Successful
Completion.
The consequences of a successful
issue to the undertaking would be so
momentous that they can hardly
be realized. The first result would
unquestionably be to put an end
to wars. To show how helpless any
military operations would be in q
country defended by such weapons,
we will suppose that Prince Bis
marck, after waiting until DIR. de
Bausset has, unknown to him, COM
pleted a few of hisair ships. picked
quarrel with us on the pretext OF
dispute about Samoa. War is
declared suddenly, after the Ger,
man manner, and the military
trains, which are said to stand ready
packed, with the horses at hand
for Harvesting, in the German ar.
senals, ARE set in motion. The trans
ports, which lie equipped for sea,are
filled with men from the nearest
garrison, and in few hours an
immense force is on its way to in
wade America.
About half way across the At.
lantic the feet is met by one or
two de Bausset air ships, which
sail about far out of retch OF shot,
and taking position in lcisureIy
manner drop a 500-pound she'll
filled with explosive gelatine into
the funnel OF each, and having thus
annihilated the expedition, proceed
to Berlin to treat the remaining
portion of the hostile army in the
same way. Ofcourse it might be
that the Germans would have the
air ship first and the war wo uId
be brought to a conclusion by the
unconditional surrender of all the
principal cities in the United
States under the persuasion OF
dynamite she'll held Suspended
over each; but it would be so easy
to turn the tables at moments no
tice that after a few towns had
been mutually blown up the quar>
rel would be terminated by COM
mon consent.
In regard to passengers, the air
ships, if they prove practicable
at all, would offer such immense
advantages in point of slfety,
speed and comfort that they would
soon supersede all other convey
ance for travelling long distances. |
1t seems to us that the proposed
speed Of 100 miles an our would
in practice be greatly exceeded.
There would be no such
obstacles to fast sailing on the air
as are met with in ocean travel
ing in the shape of waves, fogs and |
danger Of collision. BY keeping
ships on the outward passage in
the lower strata of the atmosphere
and the inwardbound ones in the
upper strata serious collisions
would be out of the questions; and
provided the speed could be made
to exceed that Of the air currents as
much as that of steamships exceeds
that of the ocean currents it is dif> |
ticult to see what danger would
remain of which travellers by we'll
built and well-managed air ships
need be afraid. From Fire and
Water.

like demons, perhaps to save him
