"Physician, heal thyself," is a
maxim the neglect of which inevitably
exposes physic to ridicule. When
one goes to purchase a hair-restorer,
and finds the yender thereof bald, his
faith receives a severe shock, and if
he is sensible, he does not buy that
nostrum.
A true story is told Of an old New
Hampshire doctor, who was one day
consulted by man suffering from
rheumatism. The physician gave him
copious advice, and ended with direc-
tions so concisely put as to be easily
memorized.
"Avoid dampness," he said.

"Keep warm keep your feet dry,
and remember what I have said about
fannels.
eyes, sir. -
"Take the medicine with absolute
regularity. Here is the prescription. I"
The man expressed his thanks, paid
his fee and took his leave. AS he
reached the door the doctor called,
ooh, by the way, if any of these
things help you, just give me a call
and tell me. I've rheumatism for
over 20 years and nothing has ever
helped me yet" "Good morning"

= Here's something that may save
your life when a bull gets after you.
When bull charges, just before the
final lurch he shuts his eyes, and if
you have the presence Of mind to
stand stockstill until he is about two
or three feet from you, all you have
to do is to step aside, and he misses
you. Any child with sufficient pres.
ence of mind to do this can let bull
charge all day with pefect safety.
This is not new thing, as it is one
of the secrets of the bull fighters in
the countries where the sport is prac-
ticed. The bull fighters say that a
COW does not do this, and they would
never try any such tricks with mad
COW. The writer knows that what is
said about the bulls habit is true

A Problem Solved.

The cute saloons of Connecticut have
solved a knotty problem in short order.
While her stupid sister States have
been trying for century or so to stop
the Sunday saloon business by punish
ing the saloon keeper, Connecticut
has stopped itby Furnishing any person
who goes into a saloon on Sunday.
This is bright idea and 1T might
be extended. Why not make it a
penal offense forany person to be seen
going into a gaming room, lottery
Office, or any place where an unlawful
business is conducted on Sunday or
any other day?
But, on the other hand, why not
try the Atlanta plan, and have an
efficient police regulation Of the sa-
loon. Nobody ever heard Of person
entering a saloon on Sunday in
Atlanta.-Atlanto Constitution.

How to Arrest the Flow Of Populations
to Towns.

Cannon Farrar mentions the disposi-
tion Of populations to aggregate into
large cities as one Of the tendencies Of
this age which seems to threaten most
of danger. 1t is not a disposition
which has all of a sudden sprung into
existence. 1t has, however, of late
years shown to be of increased strength.
There is perhaps stronger desire On
the part of people to get close together
than ever before. There is not only
a drift towards large cities, but even
our smallest villages grow by the mi
grafton of those who seem little likely
to be profited by the move. The farm
house hidden far away from the mad
ening crowd, no longer appears at
tractive. All this seems. to threaten
i'll to the agricultural prospects not OF
this country alone, but Of all coun-
tries. 1t is deplorable state Of
things when the occupation upon
which all others rests presents fewer
attractions than almost any other. 1t
is lamentable when those who are free
to exercise wish prefer the crowded
streets of the city to the freedom and
room of the country. 1t seems to argue
that farm life is not what it should
and might be. It indicates that the
young in making out their schemes Of
life give the greater share Of their at
tention to those objects of dislike
which are least worthy of their notice.
We have little hopes Of reform in
this particularfrom convention Of agri-
culturists resolving to make farm life
more attractive. This has been fol-
lowed by the resolvers seizing the first
opportunity of moving to town. But
if farmers would magnify their Office,
not by declaring war on men Of other
vocations, but by each ones striving
to improve his environments, the
country would become as attractive as
the town. Could our Southern people
get the large plantation idea out of
their minds, it would be great move
in this direction. With smaller farms
they could live closer together, and
have more solid enjoyment. Gould all
the country be filled with hamlets in
which a dozen or score of farmers
would gather for mutual protection the
town-resorting craze might be arres-

Enormous FOrgeries.

MEMPHIS, Oct. 1O.-Developments to-
day in the shortage of A. X. Ward show
that his forgeries will amount to about
100000. OF this s75, 900 is held by local
banks, $4,000 are in New York city,
$4,000 in Chicago and the remainder OF
firms and individuals in Memphis.
Ward enjoyed Unlimited confidence in
business and social circles and he secured
money on forged notes from at least
dozen widows in amounts running from
81, 900 to $4,000. He has borrowed the
savings of the employees of the firm of
which he was the general manager and
gave them spurious notes for it. No one
knows what he did with the money but
there are no traces Of his gam bling, spec.
ulating or dissipating. The best infor-
nation to be had shows that half of the
months. Ward and his wife are enroute
for British Honduras on the steamer
Break water.

ARE THEY ALIKE?

Did you ever stop to think that a
great majority of us have two different
eyes, that the sight of each varies ?
IF you do not believe this, just try it.
Select newspaper print or type in the
INrELL1GENcER of uniform size. Close
first one eye and then the other-you
may have surprise in store for your
self. Then look at a distant object,
such as a sign of letters across the
street, or at greater distance. Clos
ing the eyes separately will soon reveal
the fact of similar vision or inequality.
Should there exist a difference you
ought to look into the matter towards
o means of correction. This illustra-
tion applies to persons who have never
worn glasses. If you do wear them,
and you care to determine whether or
not they suit your eyes or the sight
exactly, follow the same direction,
first with the glasses off the face and
then with them on. Many, no doubt,
are wearing glasses totally unsuited to
their wants Of sight. A little common
sense and judgment on this point of
tests will be Of great value. DR.. Mat
thez, at the Hotel Chiquola, has ex-
amined the eyes for the adjustment of

More eyes are injured by the iDj judi-

sons of intelligence in every ether
respect will resort to haphazard meth

not put on glasses unless there is
actual need for them. When they are
required, first have your eyes examin-
ed BY one who U.s. thoroughly compe-

and you will overcome defective vision
