Spring
 N edicine

Is Issoimportantthat you should be sure to get THE BEST. Hoods Sarsapa- rilla has proven it's unequalled merit by its thousands of remarkable cures, and the fact that it has a larger sale than any other sarsaparilla or blood puri- fer shows the great confidence the people have in it. In fact it is the Spring Medicine. It cures all blood diseases, builds up the nerves and gives such strength to the whole system that, as one lady puts it, " It seemed to make me anew"
 If you decide to take Hoods Sarsa- parilla for your Spring Medicine do not buy any substitute. Be sure to get

THIN ICE AT SEALE

ON SUNDAY MORNING LAeT-FRUIT AND
 EARLY VEGETABLES INJURED.
 SEALE, March 1s.-[special Correspond ence. l-Sunday morning there was thin ice in exposed places and frost on Monday morning. No Irish potatoes are up yet, but early corn, boans and other tender vegetables were injured. Plum trees were in bloom and peach trees beginning to bloom, and it is impossible to estimate the damage, if any, to fruit yet, though it is probably slight. Vegetables can be re- planted. Heavy rains and hail last week did some damage to roads and small bridges and washed up garden seed. The weath hsr is fair and pleasant today, with no pros- pect of any but slight frost, if any, to- night.

Over the Remains of Capt. J. M. Weatherly Impressive and At tended by an Immense Cortege-Full Military
 HoDors.

The last sad rites were paid to the re- mains of Capt. James M. Weatherly yes- terday afternoon, and a more impressive ceremony has not been held in long time. It was sad, sad scene and one which will be long remem bered, and especially so by those of his own class in college. An un- usually large concourse of friends were in attendance, the Ruhama church being packed
 The remains were escorted from the residence by the entire battalion of the Howard Cadet corps under command of Col. G. w. Macon and the Buey Guards under command of Capt. G. F. Hart.
 At the church funeral services, which were impressive indeed, were conducted by Dr. J H. Foster and Dr. A. w. McGaha, president of Howard college.
 After the services at the church, where many friend dropped sorrowful tears, the procession was formed and 0 march to the cemetery made.
 The remains were turned ever to the Howard Cadets and the Huey Guards, who conducted the burial services and paid their last respects.
 He was buried in his cadet uniform and with full military honors, the accustomed three volley salute being fired over the grave by the entire battalion of Howard College Cadet corps and the Huey Guards. The Howard cadets all wore crepe upon their arms and the commissioned officers wore it upon their swords.
 The floral offerings were costly and pu- merous aud came from his society, com papy, the college, the Huey Guards and others.
 The East Lake Atheneum attended the funeral in a body. f =sz

POETRY
DEAR LITTLE HANDS,

Dear little hands! love them so,
And now they are lying under the snow
Under the snow so cold and white,
ana cannot see them, nor touch them
tonight.
They are quiet and still at last. All me !,
How busy and restless they used to be ::
butnow they can never reach up through
the snow,
Dear little hands L loye them so!
Dear little hands, I miss them so,
All through the day wherever | 90.
All through the night how lonely il
seems,
For no little hands wake me out of nv
dreams.
miss them all through the weary hours.
Miss them as others miss sunshine and
flowers.
Daytime and nighttime, wherever I 90.
Dear little hands love them so
Dear little hands. When the Master
shall call,
l1l welcome the summons that comes
to all
When my feet touch the waters so dark
and cold,
| catch my first glimpse of the city of
gold
II keep my eyes fixed on the heavenly
Over the tide where the white.robed
one waits,
Shall know her 1 wonder, among the
bright bands,
Will she beckon me over? Dear little
hands.

NUMBER 16.
An Essay On Man.

Man that is born of woman is of
few days and full of microbes.
lie hoppeth out Of bed in the morn
ing and his foot is pierced by the tack
of disappointment.
He sitteth down to rest at noonday
and is stabbed in the neither anatomy
by the pin of disaster.
He walketh through the streets of
the city in the pride and glory of his
manhood and slippeth on the banana
peel of misfortune and unjoineth his
neck.
He smoketh the cigar of content
ment and behold it explodetb with a
loud noise, for it was loaded.
He slideth down the banisters of
life and tindeth them full of the
splinters of torture.
lie lieth down at night and Is
stung by the mosquitoes of annoy
ance and his frame is gnawed by
the bedbugs of adversely.
What is man but the blind worm
of fate?
Behold he is impaled on the hook
of despair, and furnisheth bait for
the leviathan Death, in the fathom-
less ocean of time.
Sorrow and travail follow him all
the days of his life.
In his infancy he is afflicted with
worms and collie, and in his old age
with rheumatism and ingrowing toe
nails.
He marryeth cross eyed woman
because her father is rich, andSindeth
she has not sense enough to fry
meat.
His father-in-law then moukeyeth
with options and goes under.
What is man but tumor on the
neck of existence?
He playeth the races, and betteth
his all on the brown mare because
he hath received tip.
The sorrel gelding with a bald face
winneth by neck.
Behold he runneth for Office and
the dead beat pulleth his leg ever and
anon and then goeth and voteth
against him.
He exhalted himself among his
people that he swelleth with pride
but when the votes are counted he
nndeth his name is Mud.
~AS poooSSuo Vi Ill l1Td0le
but IS beaten by baldheaded man
from Tailor Neck.
He goes forth to breathe the fresh
air and mediate upon the vanity of
all earthly things, and is accosted by
bank cashier with sight draft for
1927 80.
A political enemy lieth in wait for
him at the market place, and walketh
around him Growing like a cock.
What is a man but a pimple on
the face of politics
He trusteth a man who claims to
be filled with Righteousness and
standeth high in the synagogue, and
gets done up.
For behold his pious friend Is full
OF guile and runneth over with de-
ception.
From the cradle to the graye he
giveth his checks to the man that
smiteth him.
Verify, man Is but wart on the
nose of nature; bunion on the toes
of time; freckle on the face of the
universe.

THOUGHTS FOR REFLECTIoN.-
Men who believe nothing are men
who achieve nothing.
No man ever excels in anything
who Is not hard worker.
AS much as lieth in you, live peace
ably with all men.-Rom. xii, 18,
If a man walks close to God he can
trust God to care for his reputation.
No book that will not improve by
repeated reading deserves to be read
at all Carlyle.
He who gives pleasure meets with
it, kindness is the bond of friendship
and the hook Of love he who sows
not, reaps not BaSile.
Bits from Ruskin.--It is the law
of heaven that you shall not be able
to Judge what Is wise or easy, unless
you are first resolved to Judge what
is just, and do 1t.
Work is only done well when 1t is
done with a will !; and no man has q
thoroughly sound will unless he
knows he is doing what heshould, and
is in his place.
The first test of truly great. man
is his humility. All great men
not only know their business, but
usually know that they know 1t.

FARADAY's LOST CUP.-Mr. PEN
tecost, the Evangelist, replying TO
the charge of folly made against
those who believe that God will
raise the dead, gave this beautiful
illustration:
There is story told of a work.
man of the great chemist Faraday.
One day he knocked into a lar of
acid little silver cup. 1t disap.
peared, was eaten up by the acid,
and couldn't be found. The aues-
tion came up whether 1t could ever
be found. One said he could find It (;
another said it was held In solution
and there was no possibility Of find.
ing 1t. The great chemist came In
and put some chemical into the lar
and In moment every particle of
the silver was precipitated to the
bottom. He lifted it out shapeless
mass, sent 1t to the silversmith, and
the cup was restored. If Faraday
could precipitate that silver and re-
cover his cup, believe God can re-
store my sleeping and scattered dust.

DECLINING A MANUsCRIPT..-
Editors are sometimes puzzled to
know what to say In declining manu-
scrips. Writers are sometimes un-
reasonable, and take offense where
none is intended. Often many rea-
sons influence the editor, and pert
haps he cannot tell which is most
convincing. We have been inter-
ested In what purports to be an ex.
act translation of the letter sent by
a Chinese editor to a would-be con-
tributOr, whose manuscript he found
1t necessary to return:
Illustrious brother of the moon
behold thy servant PROSTATE be-
fore thy feet. / bow down to thee
and beg Of thy graciousness thou
mayest grant that / may speak and
live. Thine honored manuscript
has deigned to cast the light of its
august countenance upon us. With
raptures we have perused it. BY
the bones of my ancestors, never
have encountered such wit, such
pathos, such lovely thought. With
fear and trembling return the writ
ing. Were l to publish the treas
ure you sent me, the Emperor would
order that 1t should be made the
standard, and that none be published
except such as equal 1t. Knowing
literature as l do, and that it would
be impossible in ten Thousand years
to equal what you have done, send
your writing back. Ten thousand
times l crave your pardon. Behold
my head Is at your feet. Do what
you will. Your servants servant,
