Spectacles.

The period of putting on spectacles is
often long deferred by middle-aged peo-
pie, who "hate to seem DID," or dislike
confessing to themselves that they have
reached one of the significant turning
points of life. People have, however,
different ways of accepting the newt
able. One charming woman, who has
passed this visual limit, declares that
her comfort is thereby daily increased.
Il was always so lazy!" she says.
Nevertheless, had to do thousand
things I hated. Now when I 60 out for
an afternoon, can leave my glasses at
home, and so, when I am asked to look
at photographs, try new crochet stitch,
or read dear Mary AIMS last letter. I
can refuse with clear conscience. And
It is such rest of mind and saving of
tissue!"
Another woman, and q very pretty
one, owns to bit of tacit deception in
wearing her cross.
Il try to put my glasses on with the
air of having always worn them." she
confesses. Il can't help hoping that
people will think me near-sighted from
childhood"
But dear old gentleman, who can't
see without glasses, actually goes to the
length Of declaring that he doesn't need
them ut al. He proves his case by
standing at distance from print, and
reading it without difficulty.
there's the matter with my eyes"
he then explains. humorously. THE
only trouble is, my arms aren't long
enough "-YosLtEs Companion.

-blood-poisons of every name and

ical Discovery.
It's a medicine that starts from
the beginning. It rouses every or
gan into healthy action, purifes and
enriches the blood, and through it
cleanses and renews the whole sys-
tenn. All Blood, Skin, and Scalp
Diseases, from q common blotch
or eruption to the worst Scrofula,
are cured by it. For letter, Salt
rheum, Eczema, Erysipelas, Boils,
Carbuncles, Sore Eyes, Goitre or
Thick Neck, and Enlarged Glands,
Tumors, and Swellings, it's an une-
qualed remedy.
Don't think it's like the sarsapa-
rillas. They claim to be good for
the blood in March, April, and May.
"Golden Medical Discovery works
equally well at all seasons. And it
not only claims to do good-it
guarantees it. If it doesn't benefit
or cure, in every case, you have
your money back.
You pay only for the good you
get.

Russia,s Debt to the Cossacks.

The empire of Russia is an aggrega-
ton of many diverse nations and peo-
pies wrested from two continents.
Contradictory levies have been exacted
in the course of time from Turkey,
Tartary. Circassia, Persia, China and
the entire domain of Siberia. The chief
acquisitions have been secured since
the year 1852, chiefly through the in
strumentality of the Cossacks, those in
domitable and constant allies of the
Muscovites, who, from the very begin
ming of their predatory incursions have
constantly pushed their way into new
territory until they finally overrun the
whole immense region which stretches
from the northern boundary of China
to the Arctic ocean and eastward from
the Ural mountains to Behring sea-

MEMPHIS. Appeal-Avalanche: Dis
NAL stories come to us with regard
to political conditions in Georgia
Messrs Weaver, Simpson and Living
stone have just canvassed the state,
and it is reported that the third par
ty is making recruits by the thousand
aday. 1t is even said that if an cleo
ton were held this summer Georgia
would cast her electoral vote for a
third party president. There is no
doubt that the missionaries men
toned have had large audiences and
that they have elected a great deal
Of enthusiasm. But all these efforts
will come to nothing. In 1892 Geor-
gia will go Democratic by the usual
majority of Is, 900, as hitherto. The
evangelists of the third party are
overpreaching themselves, and when
those who are now shouting for Wea-
yer and Simpson shall give them
selves over to sober second thought
they will see the folly of the Weaver
Simpson doctrines and will hold
themselves ready to vote the Demo
cratic ticket when the time shall
come. The sub-treasury craze is a
kind of summer madness that will be
cured by reflection

being made of the binding Irvine by
some great monopoly, by which they
were all to be hung up in grove OF
sour apple trees! What are the facts?
Just as predicted by Mckinley, by
John Sherman, by Robert M. La Fol
lette, and the other great leaders for
protection. Home manufactures have
been developed under the stimulus OF
the Mckinley tariff, and competition
has put into our markets binding
Irvine of four or five grades, ranging
from sissil to MANILA, for prices rang
ing through all the grades fully two
cents per pound less than the same,
orinferior qualities of the same grade.
This is no idle talk. Having curl
osity to distinguishing to investl-
gate for the sake of truth-we made
inquiry of leading firm in this city
who keep five qualities of binding
Irvine. Their prices range from IL to
IA cents. The higher price is for a
clear, smooth Irvine that has nearly
800 feet to the pound. The same
grade sold for Is to Is cents last
year and the year before. We have
samples of this Irvine in our posses
sion. Millions of pounds of these
several grades of Irvine are being made
in this country, and in all probability
the prices will be lower next year.

ARCHBISHOP KATzER declares that,
though the order of the Knights Of
Pythias has not been expressly put
under the ban Of the Catholic church,
he thinks that q Catholic cannot be
permitted to belong to this organiza-
ton. The test usually applied to Sc
cret societies whose aims are not
avowedly Objectionable is whether in
their ritual or otherwise they teach
doctrines not in accord with the
