The sexton.

The sexton, remarks Rev. Wm. E. Griflis, is a church servant to whom, in the average congregation, little is given while much is required. As custodian of the sacred edfice he may make or mar good work in frightening off or at- tracting hearers He is expected to un- derstand the mysteries of heat and ven- tilation, the personal convenience of the minister and the idiosyncra- sies of at least the important pew holder, to be temple guardsman and warn and expel the unruly, to be an usher with the manner of Chesterfield and able to read at once by face or coat alone the exact qualifca- tions of a stranger to sit in this or that pew, and, though living in the vestibule, to know the exact requirements, physical and psychical, of the audi torium. In the country towns, and iu most places, he must add the duties of the Nethinim to those of Obed Edam, take charge of funerals, cemeteries, the digging and filling of graves, and must attend to the sacred vessels and their re- plcnishing and cleansing at communion and bapti nal seasons. In short the modern sexton must unite in one person the complete duties of sacristan. beadle, pew-opener undertaken, funeral di- rector and manager of church we'd dings Rarely is tho sexton praised. While the relation of the pastor to the people Is that of bride beloved, the sexton's Is too often that of the motha

Hlnw Your Nose.

Alas too often an admonition of a mother to her child The poor innocent has prob ably inherited catarrh and is not respon. fsible for it's sore and filthy nostrils. Did you know that tender, soft, thin skin lining tho nostrils, called the mucous membrane, extends all over the body. Every organ in the system and every orifice at the surface has this thin, delicate lining as a protector So you see what fix the body is thrown into when the mucous membrane becomes irritated and infiamed by constant friction with poisonous matter in the blood. Ca tarrh, leucorrh9a and piles result frequent ly from this condition of affairs. These diseases are mere symptoms of impover- ished blood. Now B B B, or Botanic Blood Balm, will by enriching the blood cause all such symptoms to disappear. Give it a trial
 Henry Reeves, Shellman, Ga, writes "Any man or woman who is suffering from piles and will not use Botanic Blood Balm is fool, and it takes me to tell them so, for 1 suffered two years with bleeding piles, and B B E relieved me at once.n
 J. J. Hardy, Toccoa, Ga, writes: "B B | is quick cure for catarrh Three bottles cured me. l had been troubled several years"
 James W. Lancaster, Hawkinsville, Ga writes: My wife was in bad health foI eight years. Five doctors and as many or more different patent medicines had done her no good. Six bottles of B E has cured her.n

THE OFFICE OF SORROW.
The Most Important of All tho Conditions
 Affecting Spiritual Development.

The Most Important of All tho Conditions
 Affecting Spiritual Development.
 The most important of all tho condi tions affecting the spiritual develop ment of mankind has been sorrow.
 In death, the common lot of all, even the rich and the strong have beheld the despoiler of all their vain shows. Against the inevitable ealamities which shatter or dissolve the works of mans hand-earthquake and tempest and flood mo human power has availed. These lessons of nature. who is no respector of classes or persons, as to the frailty of all human power and possession, have profoundly impressed all hearts. Loss has led to precious gain.
 But the greatest of human sufferings, those which imbitter all life, have been of human infliction. The situatian of the great majority of mankind in an- cient times-those of which we have any definite record-was one of abject wretchedness Already existed only in the poets fancy. In state of barbar- ism mems wants were few and simple, but their passions were violent, and for the weak there was no security. Every desirable garden on the earth was bait to the rapacity of conquest tho arena of invasion following upon invasion, like the waves of hungry sea. Civili- zation, on the other hand, was organ ized selfishness, and its peace was, for the great body of the people, a level desolution. Their lot was ono of hu- initiating drudgery, of depressing, hope less poverty.
 But it was especially unto the poor that the Gospel of the Eternal Word was preached. To such the voice of God comes nearer, because it is more willingly and gladly heard. The broken heart is open; there is no pride to close the way thereunto. An angel whispers in the ear of every slave, and upon him who hath nothing all Heaven waits.
 Sorrow, too, lies near true repent ance, even as the broken becomes read fly the contrite heart; pride has no place in it's chastened and subdued mood. The soul, weary of struggle and of it's own discontent, receives the Di- vino voice and is comforted. Even ones ignorance may help him hero, in this soft, unresisting attitude, making him more readily the recipient of tho Divine wisdom, more pliant to the counsels of tho Spirit of Loye.-Gnd in His World.

 A ssFossu. FOREST" has been discov- cred in Scotland. Thirty or forty fossil trunks have already been laid bare, most of which are gray freestone. One of tho trunks is at least two feet in diameter.
 TIE gold key of the library building at Edinburgh, Scotland, which was built by Andrew Carnegie, bears the in scription: "Edinburgh Public Library, gifted by Andrew Carnegie" To use gift as verb, says the London Times in referring to tho matter, may be good Scotch, but 1t is very indifferent En- glish.
 ONE of the deepest coal mines in the world is at St. Andre du Poirier, France, and yearly produces 300, 900 tons of coal. The mine is worked vita sssrn st....iits, one 2,952 feet deep and the other 3,0S3. The latter shaft is now being deepened, and will soon reach the 4,000-feet level. The remarkable feature in this deep mine Is the comparatively low tempera- ture experienced, which seldom rises above 75 degrees Fahrenheit.
 A FREED palm tree in Rome was blown down during a recent gale. It stood in the gardens of the British Elm bassy, and was, perhaps, the tallest tree in Rome. It was historical as having been pierced by cannon ball during the attack on the city in September, 1870. It was strapped with iron where the ball had pierced 1t, and was the only object in the vicinity which showed the traces of the attack which opened Rome to the Italian army.
 M. Bunall varilla has come forward with new plan for uniting England with the continent. He has overcome the objections at once to the bridge scheme and to the tunnel project, by combining both.

From the sea-end of these piers connection Is to be made by tubes with . submarine tun- nel. Through these tubular approaches railway trains will be lowered on an in- cline into the main tunnel.

A Very Good Renson.

Druggists who are selling Smiths Tonic Syrup, made by Dr. John Bull, of Louis vile, Ky, wonder that it's sales increase SC rapidly. At first they began to buy quar- was sometimes sold in single day, and now they say they are obliged to buy in half gross and gross lots in order to keep . supply on hand. There is a very good reason why Smiths Tonic Syrup should sell SC well There is not much newspaper adver Using done, but it advertises itself. Every bottle used is an advertisement, for 1t does exactly what it is expected to do. It will break up the chills and fever in less time than any other drug. It will prevent and quickly cure colds, Influenza, Ia grippe, etc In fact, it can be substituted for quinine il every instance, and with better satisfac tion, for it's effect is more certain and re liable, and it never leaves the unpleasant effects that quinine sometimes does.
