SUNDAY THOUGHTS

From Henry Drummond's The Greatest Thing
in the World"
Do not quarrel with your lot IN life.
Do not complain of Its never ceaslng
cares, its petty environments, the
vexatiOns you have to stand, the small
and sOrdid souls you have to live and
work With. Above all, do not resent
temptation: do not be perpleKed bez
cause it seems to thicken round you
more and more, and ceases neither for
effort nor for agony, nor for prayer.
That 10 your practice. That is the
Practice WHICH, UUd apT1uiI1tts JET: 5ti +
and it Is having its work in making
you patient, ana humble, and gener-
Gus, unseltish, KIND and courteous,
Do not grudge the hand that is mould
ing the still too shapeless image with
in you. It is growing more beautl-
full although you see it not, and every
touch of temptation may add to its
perfection. Therefore keep in the
midst of life. DO not isolate yourself,
Be among men and among things, and
among troubles, difficulties and OBJ
stacles. You remember GOethe's
words! "TAlent develops itself in
sohtude-the talent of prayer. of
faith, of meditation, OF seeing the un-
seen: Character grows In the stream
of the worlds life"

OUR ADVERTISERS.

The TIMES wishes to call special at
tentlon to the wide scope of business
enterprises represented In this issue.
Such a general representation indi-
Gates that the business men of Bruins
wick are live and energetic, conscious,
of the benefits of judiciOus advertis-
ing, and ready to aid in matters Of
municipal advancement.
In its effort to make cOmprehen-
sive presentation of the commercial
interests of Brunswick, The TIMES
met with bur few refusa!s. Yester-
day, when it was too late for the re-
ceptiOn of further advertising, appii-
cations we're received from many
sources for space-amOng them from
some of the repenting few who had
previously refused.
Tie leading business men of Bruins
wick and Glynn county are up.tO-
date, as their presence In this Mid
summer Issue cOnclusively proves.
Such class is the backbone OF a city.
Brunswick is especially fortunate in
her commercial citiZenry.

Health and strength carry US through
dangers and make US safe in the pres
enOe of peril. A perfectly strong man
with rich, pure blood has no. hing to
fear from germs. He may breathe In
the bacllli of consumption with impu-
nifty. If there is weak spot where the
germs may find an entrance to the It's
sues, then the trouble begins. Disease
germs propagate with lightning-like
rapidity. Once in the blood, the only
way to get rid of them is to kill them.
This is what DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery is for. 1t purifies the
blood. That means that 1t kills the
germs, but that is only part of what 1t
does. 1t assists digestion by stimulat-
ing the secretion of digestive fluids, so
promoting assimilation and nutrition {;
purifies and enriches the blood and so
supplies the tissues with the food they
need. It builds up strong, healthy
flesh and puts the whole body in dis
ease-resisting state.

A WORD ABOUT SHIPPING

During the dark days of the panic
of 1893 there were not few men who,
although faithful and loyal to Bruins
wick in the past, bewailed muGhly in
public places. They saw no future
for the city to which they had given
so much. They declared, "Bruns-
wick 10 dead. Her shipping business
has gone never to return. Her best
people have deserted. Investment
will give her a wide berth. Five
years from today Brunswick will be
nothing but a memory )"
1t was, therefore, with a keen shock
of surprise that these same men of pes
simistlc view awOke on the morning of
January /, 1897, and saw proven in
cold figures that Brunswick had not
only retrieved all it's temporary Losses,
but had actually, for the year 1896,
made the greatest shipping record of
any year in Its history.
Such is the undeniable fact, but
there ia q supplemental statement
even more gratifying. report of
the shipping business of the first five
months of 1897, taken from the books
of Capt. Otto Johannes0n, especially
for this issue, shows that the ratio of
increase has been uninterruptedly
maintained. In plain figures the m
crease for the first five months of 1897
over the first five months of 1896 is
81, 422, 46S. Continuing at this rate,
the sum total of shipping for 1897 will
be close to $40, 100000.

James Arthur, Il veteran Of the civil
war, now a resident Of Buffalo, arrived
i'll Superior, Wis, by steamboat recent
ly to make inquiries concerning a trans
action dating back nearly 40 years. Ac
cording to Mr.. Arthur's story, a bag
containing $50, 600 i'll gold was buried
by man named Eli Fingers i'll the year
1861 and has never been discovered to
this day, though several expeditions
have gone i'll search of it.
Arthur and Fingers were partners in
a bank at La Pointe. which they closed
and joined the army. Eli Fingers was
killed at the battle of Richmond, KY,
on Aug. 80, 1862. A thorough search
through the Fingers home in New York
failed to disclose any information con-
corning the location of the hidden treas
ure. After the war Arthur married the
sister of Fingers He has made several
trips in search of the treasure, but in
vain. Recently, while turning the pages
of an old book which had once been the
property of Eli Fingers, a small piece
of note paper was found by Mrs. Arthur
which contained memorandum writ

WONDERFUL TELEGRAPHY.
An Expert Talks of the Recent Interna-

An Expert Talks of the Recent InterEa-
tiOnaI Cable Chess Match.
"I think the public has not thor
oughly appreciated the fact that the
Geographic work done in connection
with the recent international chess con-
test between members of congress and
the British parliament was in num-
Der of respects the most remarkable feat
of skill ever accomplished in the history
of telegrahing, said Mr.. M. Marean,
manager of the Western Union Tele-
graph company.
ut took Oh an average only 10 sec
onds to transmit the moves between
Washington and London. During the
two days of the game not a single tele-
graphic mistake was made, and the
overland and cable service was without
other than momentary interruption.
The line ran from Washington to Hearts
Content, Nova Scotia, over the Western
Union system, thence by the Western
Union and Anglo-American Gable COM
pany to Valencia, Ireland, thence to the
house of parliament.
''Six operators were engaged in the
work, one at each end of the three
lines. When preparation was being
made for the match, it was questioned
whether moves could be telegraphed as
rapidly as 10 per hour. The service
given demonstrated that there might
have been 100 moves an hour, so far as
their transmission over the ocean was
concerned. OF course authorizations were
used, and no time was lost in sending
either addresses On signatures. Wash

"Going into decline" How often
do we hear this expression. What
does IT mean? 1t means that people
are losing flesh, growing thin, vast
ing.
The way to correct this condition is
to improve the digestion. The oondi-
ton arises from an inability to eat and
digest food, In fact food does more
harm then good because it ftrmen's
and putrliies in the stomach, develop
ing poisonous substances which whtn
absorbed causes various disorders.
What is required is that the stomach
be made to perform Its duties. The
