ONE WORD IN TIME
Is Better Than Two Afterwards. A
Chance to Profit by Boston
Mans Experience.
(FrOm the Boston Herald }

1t is strange thing how people will put
away an opportunity until too late; it's only
little things that go to make up our every day
existence; the trouble is we don't pay sufficient
attention to Them "A wink to the wise may
be sufficient" but sometimes we don't get that
stance: Backache is little thing. Some
times it comes after hard days work, or
slight cold. 1t will pass off, you say; it's only
the result OF overtaxing my back. This is
where you are wrong. 1t isn't the fault of
your back, but your kidneys. The exertion or
straning has interfered with their delicate
mechanism You call it baekache, but it
really is kidney ache. If the kidneys are not
relieved, chronic disorders set in, and this is
where the little thing" should not be passed
over. A Boston man has learned to appre-
ciate what delay means. We refer to j. III.
Matthews who resides at No. 4 Garland street.
This is how he speaks about it, "Some eight
years ago had bad fall which rendered my
back lame and sore. / was not surprised at
this, as my accident was bad one, but as
time went on my back did not appear to i'm

Kidney Pills at Bradbury's drug store ON

Luckless Dee Watt Of Mississippi.

Dee Watt, who lives just over the
Kemper line in Sumter county, is the
most III lucky individual we have heard
of in many moons. Last spring he had
100 head of fine hogs and 1000 bushels
of corn, and he began feeding them
with the expectation of soon having
cai load of fat porkers 10 put on the
market. Just about the time he was
getting ready to ship, cholera broke out
among them and Ill but twenty six
died. During one of the first cold
spells we had he killed 1900 pounds of
those that escaped the cholera, and that
spoiled, He is now minus his hogs and

by the expression of his countenance,
and sometimes by pause in his con-

to the subject in camp that evening,

Who is this man they bury to-day,
Out of the cheerful sun? =
'He was a cop" Ilheard them say;
THAT was his number, by the way,
$751;"
That is his helmet, on the pail,
There is his belt, undone;
There is a wreath of flowers let fall
Making just three figures in all
ISL.
There is a medal on his breast,
For some brave deed done;
Still, he was not of fame possessed;
He was only, at worst and bes',
3sl.
Stopping horse, once, running away,
Saved wife and son;
1t was remembered half a day;
"Only his duty" heard them say;
"3'I."

Dragged three child en- into sight,
Out of the fire; yes, that was right,
Ssl.
dubbed man, one day, half-dead,
People said for fun;
Still, there was this much to be said:
He came near being stabbed instead
3Sl.
Yes, he had faults! ard such as might
Your pure excellence stun;
But he was perfect, in fight;
When in trouble you loved to sight
3sll
Always sought and called for first,
When there was risk to run;
Asked for his best amid the worst
When it was over, often cursed!
81.
Still, some threads of mirth and glee
Into his days were spun
He had a wife and children three
And they weep for him. as we see
ISL.
And he had comrades, as have you
Willingly foe to none;
And they are out, once more to view
Him that to them was ever true

Under the Great Chief let him trust,
In the new life begun
Soul to soul, and dust to dust,
And God that is ever just
Now that his work is done.
