nesday afternoon in East Lake, show that
within the past five weeks he had applied
for over 100000 in life insurance, and at
the time of his death he had secured
$4,000. 1t was at first thought that $4,000
was the full amount of his policies. 1t
may be that other policies will show up TO
make the final total above the $50, 900 now
apparent. His financial condition was not
such as to enable him to carry this amount
of insurance. and the theory that he COM
mitted suicide is strengthened by these
facts. One insurance man, to whom he
applied for a policy, stated to-day that
Delbridge at the time made inquiries as
to whether 1t would be paid in case of sui
eide or accidental drowning.
The funeral of the deceased was held
to-day from Trinity church, of which he
had been an active member for several
years. 1t was largely attended.

SAAS - 1000 WAANCSs
IT have known the beneficial effects of
Suwanee Water for rheumatism and govt
for many years. mention these two dis
eases because have had occasion to OBJ
serve the action of the water on them,
The action of the water drank in large
quantities is peculiar. After six or eight
days drinking of the water freely the dis
ease seems to be very much aggravated
and pains are intense; at the same time
the secretion from the kidneys is enor-
mously increased. This lasts for four or
hve days, and then with the same treat
ment of drinking of the water continued
improvement starts in. The class of dis
eases seem to be most benefited in which
this condition of increased pains is most
severe. The cause of this is to me evident.
The constant drinking OF the water in
large quantities renders soluble the irri-
tating material which is the cause OF these
troubles; in this condition the soluble ma
terial is rapidly carried off by the kid
neys and the system is freed from this
poisonous matter. The Improvement in
many OF these cases is permanent; in
others. relief continues until the system
again becomes charged with morbid ma
terial / hope the continued use Of the
water at home as a beverage will be suff-
cient to prevent this recurrence OF dis
ease"

IN THE BEGINNING

OF the new year, when the winter sea-
son of close confinement is only half
gone, many find that their health be-
gins to break down, that tho least ex-
posure threatens sickness. It is then,
as we'll as at all other times, and with
people even in good health, that the
following facts should be remembered,
namely: That Hoods Sarsaparilla
leads everything in the way Of medi-
cines; that it accompanies the great
est cures in the world, and requires the
largest building in the world devoted
exclusively to the preparation Of the
proprietary medicine. Does not this
conclusively prove, II you are SICK. that
Hoods Sarsaparilla fs the medicine for
you to take?

MARY DILLINGHAM; FREAR.
When the blossoms of purple and gold
that laugh in the sun are asleep,
When the stars burn white in the
heaven, and the dews Of the nights
morning weep,
And diamonded drops are adrip from
the tips of the opulent leaves,
Where the blooms that are born OF the
sun an arbor of radiance weave;
When the bells of convohoh close as
the light of the sun is withdrawn,
The silence and gray of the twilight
TO the cereus comes as the dawn;
It's ivory cup shall unfold as it lifteth
it's face to the moon,
And the star. in It's centre shall SHINE
as the night is approaching its
noon
With a light so effulgent and clear
that the stars in the indigo SKY
May with envy look down from their
thrones on the gorgeous blossoms
that lie
Unfolding the dark lava boulders in
garments so radiant and bright,
AS If over their lichens and moss
snowdrift had swept in the night.
The zephyrs that cwanton and play
through the tremulous leaves in
the gloom
Fitch doors from deep-laden censers
and bear on their wings the per-
fume;
The dews of the midnight drink deep
of the fragrance exhaled from the
shrine. - .e--...z@. - -:
Where the goblets are trimming with
nectar, more sweet than Talernian
wine.
oh, flower that uplifteth thy cup when
the Eray-hooded mantle OF night
Droops down on the earth and the sea,
and Gods lamps In the heaven
shine bright,
Alas! and alack! for thy glory. alas!
for the triumph you've wont
Alasi for thy dazzling beauty that will
bear not the light Of the sun;
Ere the gold at the dawn OF the day
shall tighten the mountains with
nre,
Thy cup shall be folded forever, the
star in thy heart shall expire.
What are you, o, flower. but type OF
the life and the labor of man?
For life, saith the psalnaist of old at
the longest is only span.
How short in the waters Of eternity
are our three score years and ten!
Sprung from the earth as the grass and
the flower, we blossom and die, and
then
We are only a memory left, like the
breath of a faded rose;
And alasi for us, like the flower, our
lives too swiftly ebb to their close
But not like the flowers that fade on
earth, we shall bud and blossom
again,
If we be- the Fathers children, II we
trust in the Saviour slain;
But few short days and a few short
years, like wandering waits we
roam,
Till the flowers that are closed on earth
shall bloom in an everlasting home
