Thousands Of testimonials attest It's virtues.
Many of these ,.re given by men and women
Of highest standing in the most honored
walks Of life. In the midst of fourishing
and rapidly increasing business the price is
reduced from 81 so to Sl00 per bottle. This
is done in the nterest Of those whose cir
cumstances N life deter them from paying
the higher price. The rich who have tried
it will buy at any price, but the managers
feel that a medicine which possesses such
wonderful powers should be placed within
the reach OF the poor. Many have said that
"Germetuer" was the cheapest medicine on
the market When it is remembered that q
bottle of concentrated Germetuer makes a
gallon of medicine ready 70: use, it is GER
tainly cheaper than ordinary medicines as
to bulk; and when the powers Of the medi-
cine are taken into account the price is in

Excessive Parental Indulgence.

The fond mother will sometimes
pour herself out unreservedly upon
her child. She withholds nothing in
her power that will contribute to
his qualification. No sacrifice is too
great for her to undergo for his sake.
This self-abnegation is in itself lovely
and admirable; yet, if it end there, it
cannot but prove an injury to the
very one for whose sake she would
lay down her life. With all of her ef-
forts, one important part of his edu-
cation has been neglected. He has
not been trained in benevolence. His
generosity has not been cultivated.
His powers of self restraint and self
sacrifice have not been developed.
He is accustomed to receive every
thing and give nothing-to be minis,
tered unto and not to minister. Un-
less he possess a very rare and unu-
sual character, he will grow up selfish,
exacting, and ungrateful There has
rot been too much kindness, but too
little intelligence.

WEDNESDAY, MARCH q, 1891,
What Becomes of the Mules.
Washington (Ga.) Gazette.l

You and many other Georgia edit
ors are curious to know what becomes
OF all the mules that are brought yea1
after year to Georgia.
I can tell you. They are bought by
white men who rent land to negroes
They are sod or rented to these ne
gro tenants. By them they are starv-
ed, beaten, and cruelty treated. At
the end of year they die. That's
what becomes of the mules.
Go to one Of our side streets on q
hot, sultry Saturday in August; there
you will see hundreds of mules stand
ing without food or understanding
so from morning until u o'clock at
night-while their riders, negro men
and women, loiter about the square,
blocking up the sidewalk, gabblins
and sossiping. That's what becomes
of the mules.
Look out of your window any pub
lie day, especially "big meeting
day, and you will see poor, jaded,
half-starved mules, drawing wagons
and buggies packed with negroes
thick as sardines. The heavier the
load, the harder the mule is beaten.
A mule that has worked all the week
without rest or shelter is driven ten
miles every Sunday with stick and
spur. That's what becomes Of the
mules.
Sometimes I walk along the streets
and see poor, tired mule all skin
and bones He can scarcely creep
He is lashed and beaten into run by
cruel negro driver. 1 turn my face
away in shame to think that live IN
land where such things 60 without
rebuke. We have become 50 accus-
toned to it we do not notice it.
My husband deals largely in mules
His plantation is tenanted out to ne,
groes. Every winter he buys q car,
load of mules. They are driven into
our back lot. Here the negro tenants
come one by one and selects his
mule.
Poor beasts! They go out crisp.
1.-the and uimble, fresh f,om their ma
tive fields They come back next fall
nothing but skeletons; that is, the few
that do not die. They come with
sores on their backs, great knots on
their knees, eyes put out, tongues cut
and bleeding. Nobody can tell what
cruelty they suffer in the hands ci
their black masters. I can only tell
what see. Nine out of ten come
back with their tongues cut. I asked
one OF our tenants once why it was
so. He laughed and said: ''Dats de
only way ter make er mule go when
he gifts stubborn"
A negro tenant rarely ever pays for
his mule. The landlord takes it back
in The fall, and after feeding and car
ing for it few weeks rents it out to
another tenant. That's what becomes
of the mules.
Out of a carload Of twenty Ken
tucky mules that my husband bought
last winter, seven died. The others
are in our back lot in the condition /
have described.
There are some thrifty, industrious
colored people, like John Garter, VIII
lis Wingfeld, and others could men
ton, who own homes and farms, are
good citizens, and care for their mules
as I do for "Old Georgia my buggy
horse. May God bless and prosper
all such. But every mule that IS
brought to Georgia every year comes
to fill the place of one who has gone
just as I have told you. That's what
becomes of the mules.

Surprises have been numerous In the

the talent or Brooklyn and Gotham have
been ~astonished at the brilliant execution
of the Jersey bowlers and the conspicuous
places they have maintained in the strug-
gle for tho honors. Another startling
surprise and disappointment was In store
for those who gathered at the Academy
alleys last night. A favorito team IN the
race has been the formidable aggregation
OF the Phoenix Club OF Harlem. At the
opening Of the tournament 1t was nrst

Phoenix finished second last season. IL
was known that the Jersey City athletes
could not produce their Big Five 70
battle for them, and the admirers OF
the Harlem bowiers believed the
race was a s'cinch'' for the Phoenix team.
Their hope has continued as the Harlem
team has kept up close TO the top and last
night before the games began 1t was even
with the Jersey City Athletes in games

Phoenix had to meet the teams OF the
New York and the Munroe bowling
Clubs. Its rivals were far below IL IN
average scores and were out OF the race
DIACliCallts IL was NOAlako W AOA@AA
that Phoenix would win botn and
move up into first place with
the Jersey City Athletes. The
Harlem bowlers first tackled the New
York clubs team. The latter made a
very weak effort, yet won, rs the stalwart
Harlem bowlers tied the smallest total
that has been bowled in the tournament
and took an astonishing tumble In team
and Individual averages. They rallied In
the second contest aud made a better
score by 159 pins, but luck was against
them and the Monroe team beat them by
three pins and the Harlem's pride
dropped into third place with
a very small prospect OF
reaching a more enviable position. The
first battle was slow ana tedious The
Phoenix team held a small lead uutil the
