JULIUS HOBBS, M. D.

As a result of the announcement made
by the Savannah newspapers the last
few days that a free package of DR..
Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills would be
given away to any of our readers who
would call at Jones' Pharmacy, 2n Bull
street, to-day, an intense interest has
been awakened in this distribution.
A large number of people called yes
terday to make inquiries about the free
samples of this wonderful medicine to be
given away to-day which shows what
general interest is taken by the public IN
the test now being given by DR.. Hobbs
of his discovery for the cure of all kidney
ailments.
Much to our qualification, number of
lady callers have shown an unusual in
terest in this great distribution.
"Can 1t be possible" said a man who
called yesterday, that the advancement
in the science of medicine has at last
reached a climax for poor sufferers like
MYSELF"
II am going to say one thing at any
rate. The owners of this medicine GER
tainly have faith in it, and they are going
about II in an honest, straightforward
manner. Just this thing alone gives me
confidence and strong hope that 1 shall
again be a well man."
Another caller yesterdays lady-said:
II live several miles away from Savan-
nah, but l am going to get a sample of
this new kidney medicine for my husband.
He has been sufferer from kidney dis
ease for many years"

cause their owners are ignorant of the
l~3per manner of feeding and attending to
them. No man should keep a bird unless
he thoroughly understands how to look
after It. That bullfinch is suffering from
rheumatism through being kept in a damp
cage. A good rundown with turpentine
every day will set him right. Those two
linnets in HANDBAGS have broken legs from
a heavy fall. Very fine splints are used
in this case, the legs being bound up with
silken bandages. Very delicate work it
is, and needs great skill to do IL success
fully. 1 have an assistant who is very
clever at delicate fractures"
Another patient arrested my attention at
that moment. This bird was bobbling up
and down in the most grotesque fashion.

basketful of feathers a day. The patients
are getting feathered now, and are, con-
sequently, very ravenous. Big fires are
always kept going in this ward, and every
crack is covered up to guard against
draughts. Very small doses of physic are
necessary for moutling birds.
II visit my patients every morning; my
two attendants administer the physic or

may require. One hundred pounds the med
icine bill runs to; another f10O is expended
on food $50 on fuel, and two attendants at

proud of the part he played in the famous
charge, for he regarded it as a blunder,
and to use his own language, IAN English
soldier is never very proud of making a

He was born in Lathram West Ireland
When lad of II years of age, he ran
away from home and went to Maidstone
England, where he Joined the Seventeenth
Lancers under command of Sir Colin

years service in India, where he received
TWO bad wounds, he returned to Hound

In 1854 his regiment was sent to the

Barney rode beside him when Lord Rag
Ian gave the order to charge and threat

Barney was shot three times, but kept
his seat in the saddle. When Barney
reached camp after the retreat, he was

saturated with blood. He was taken to
the hospital and after his recovery he

very highly and just before he died he

received any pension for his services. his
medals being all the reward he had. He
lived here for twenty years.
