Gladness Comes

With better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms Of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
case, but simply to constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why 1t i1 the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed SO highly by nil
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which 1t acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti.
Gle. which is manufactured by the Cali.
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment OF good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most slsillful
but If in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and givesmostg general satisfaction.

For Love OF Him.

Here is a true story Of woman de-
votion. A wife, older than her hus.
band, awoke to the conviction that she
was more and more addicted to snor-
ing. She was confirmed in this con-
~viction by thoughtless remarks Of her
husband. a sensible woman, she
knew that she was not comely, and
she suspected him of marrying her fol
her money. She was ~piteously fond
of him, and she fought for his love.
She went quietly to a physician. He
told her the snoring was connected in
some way with q catarrhal trouble.
and recommended an operation. She
suffered inconvenience and pain
through the remedying, but was re.
wardcd when her husband said, whats
the matter with you, old girl2
haven't heard you snore for a week
All this happened dozen years ago.
The husband, a heavy, injudicious
eater and drinker, SHORES at night and
even in his sluggard's chair after din
ner. He snorcs so vehemently that
guests wake in alarm, although they
are a floor above. The wife listens
without rcmonstrance. She loves,
adores. He is her husband. And
when her sister, visiting, said, "Louise.
I don't see how you stand it," she
flushed with anger and replied, Gle is
my husband, and I know that he is
near to me."-Boston Journal.

the bounds of the surrounding banks.
At length the grub is overcome by a

it must leave them for the regions

them what it has found to exist in the

little. pond. And then quietly it dis.
appears from the sight Of it's fellows
and energies into the bright sunlight
of the greater world. Here it is trans:

fecting the brightness of the sun from

Effect OF Water On Horses.

A horse can live twenty-five days
without solid food merely drinking
water seventeen days without either
eating or drinking, and only five days
when eating solid food without drink
ing.
An idea prevails among horsemcn
that a horse should never be watcrcd
oftencr than three times a day or in
/ twenty-four hours. This is not only
a mistaken idea but a very brutal
practice. A horses stomach is OK
trcmely sensitive, and will suffer un-
der the Interference, causing a fevcrish
condition.
Feeding a horse principally on grain
and driving itfve hours without water
is like giving a man salt mackcrel for
dinner and not allowing him to drink
until supper timc-very unsatisfactory
to the man.
If you know anything about the
care of horses, and have any sympa-
thy for them, water them as often as
they want to drink-once an hour, if
possible. By doing this, you will be
not only merciful to your animals, but
you will be a benefactor to yourself,
as they will do more work they will
be healthier; they will look better,
and will be less liable to coughs and
colds, and will live longer.
If you are a skeptic and know more
about horses than any one else, you
are positive that the foregoing is
wrong, because you have had horses
die with watering them too much, and
boldly say that the agitators Of fire.
quent watering are fools in your
estimation, and you would not do
such a thing. Just reason for a mo-
ment, and figure out whether the ami
NAL would have ~over-drank and over
chilled its stomach if it had not been
allowed to become over-thirsty. A
horse is a great deal like a man. Let
him get over-worked, over-stocked, or
abused, and particularly for the want
of sufficient drink in warm weather,
and the consequences will always be
injurious. Sensible holsters in large
cities are awakening to the advantages
of frequent watering. Street car
horses are watered every hour, and
sometimes oftener, while they are at
work. It is plenty of water that sup
plies evaporation or pcrspiration and
keeps down the temperature.
What old fogy methods amount to
may be seen by the change in medical
practice to man. Twenty years ago a
person having a fever of any kind, or
pneumonia, was allowed but little wa
ter to drink, and then it had to be
tepid. To-day practitioners prescribe
all the iced water the patient can pos
sibly drink and in addition, cold
bandages are applied to reduce and
control the temperature of the blood.
What is applicable to man will never
injure q horse. Use common sense
and human feeling. Don't think it is
a horse and capable of enduring any
and all things. A driver who sits in
his box and lashes his wornout, half
curried, half-fed and half-watered team
, should never complain of any abuse
he may receive from his master or en-
ployer, for he is lower in character,
harder in sympathy and less noble
than the brutes he is driving, and he
deserves in the name of all that is
human, the punishment of a criminal.

Extraordinary Case.

ATLANTA, GA, July 31.-J. L. Moyse,
representing himself to be of the firm OF
Lloyd, Moyse & West, attorneys, Of New
York, appeared here Monday and spent
the morning az q spectator of the famous
Flanagan murder case, in which the de-
fense was insanity. In the afternoon
Moyse approached Col. w. G. Glenn,
leading counsel for Flanagan, and intro
duced himself, saying he had come to
employ Glenn to aid him In the defense
Of 8 notable murder case at Rome, Ga.
He said he had been sent to Georgia by
the Crescent brewing company to defend
r, T. Mathews, who was indicted for the
murder of his wife. and Mathews having
been an agent of the brewing company,
the company had put up unlimited
money to defray the expenses of the de-
Tense. He went into details Of the crime
and the law In the case in a very intelli-
gent manner, and ended by employing
Col. Glenn for a fee Of 81, 900 to aid in de-
Tending the prisoner. Since that time he
has been q spectator at the Flanagan trial,
watching with absorbing Interest the
highly Interesting defense of Flanagan,
which was based upon the defendants
anlictlon with paranoia.
On the strength of his having engaged
Col. Glenn in the Mathews case, Moyse
assisted in the defense of Flanagan and
made q most valuable aid, showing him
self to be an expert in all matters pertain.
ing to mental arrangements. The case oil
Flanagan vas concluded to-day, and this
afternoon a conference was held at Col.
Glenn's Office to consider the Mathews
case.
Drs. Pinckney and Nicholson, two Of
the leading physicians of the State and
experts in mental diseases, were sent fol
at Moyse's suggestion and employed as
experts to testify In the case of Mathews
Monday. After a conference oftwo hours
the party adjourned to meet at Rome tc
take up the trial, no n dreaming tha'
there was no case.
In some way Moyse's actions here ha6
excited the suspicious of the detective de
partment and he was placed under arres'
tonight. It has developed that he is in
sane, being a %paranoiac Of the same type
of Flanagan, but his condition was never
suspected until he was examined in the
police barracks tonight. To the casua
observer he is perfectly sane, but 1t ha!

Inventor OF the Lead Pencil.

History has failed to record the
name Of the great genius who gave to
the world that most useful little in
strumcnt that should be in the posses
sion Of every man, woman and child in
every civilized community on the
globe. We have heard all about the
discovery of burnt snuff and the sew
ing machine and typewriter and all
that, but the inventor of the lead
pencil has, evidently, gone down into
the shadow of oblivion, "unwept, un-
honorcd and uusung." 1t is a pity.
Inventors, such as he who gave to the
world such an invaluable instrument
as this, the genius who blessed woman
kind with the thimble, the wonderful
being whose happy thought was the
occasion of the greater blessing to
womankind-thc hairpin-and a few
other human beings who added happi-
hess and prevented much SHINING in
the world, such as swearing, by in
venting the most useful, although
simple articles, that have proved
themselves to be indispensable to
humanity, would be sainted if their
names were only known. And the
genius who gave us the lead pencil
would come next to the hairpin man.
Everybody possesses a lead pencil.
Perhaps it would be better to state it
~truthfully, as this is a public matter,
and say that everybody possesses a
lead pencil until he loans it,
and it seems as though the greater
part of humanity are in possession of
lead pencils that do not belong to
them. It is a remarkable fact that
upon the instant of lending the pencil
the lender forgets the act. 1t becomes
convenient for the borrower to do the
same. This occasions my remark,
relatively based on the remark of
Abraham Lincoln, concerning fooling
the people, which is that a man may
have his own pencil some of the time
and somebody else's all of the time,
but he cannot have his own lead pen
Gil all of the time. 1t is perfectly safe
to take a lead pencil out of the hand
of anybody who is using it and indig-
nantly exclaim hat it is yours. It is
the height of extravaganza to possess
more than one pencil or to have one
in sight when not in use. The wise
man goes into hiding when he sharp
ems his pencil, as a measure of safety
for both pencil and knife. These pre-
cepts should be pasted in cverybody's
hat.
When James I, of England, first
saw an apple dumpling his eyes grew
as large as saucers from wonder as to
how the apple got inside the dump
ling He would have dropped dead
had he seen a lead pencil, for while
the dough grew around the apple no
tree could have ever been found that
would consent to grow around the
lead. To solve this mystery is the
object Of this story. One Of the great
factories and the head Of hat factory
was sought, and he said this about
the matter, with every evidence of
veracity he having no occasion for

MR.. WILLIAM Armstrong.
al have been a sufferer for eight years
with that horrible disease, Eczema, at
times all over my body, and no person
can describe the burning and itching !
had to endure.
"The extent of my suferings can be
appreciated when I state that my COM
dition was such that I could. not take
my bed, and for three months I never
laid down, but was compelled to sit IN
my chair when not moving around. I
was treated by the best of physicians
with no success, and tried all the patent
medicines recommended for Eczema,
without any good results. I then went
to the Indiana Mud baths, with the same
results, and then to Mt. Clements, the
celebrated medical resort, where the
treatment partially helped me, but the
disease shortly returned. I went to
Florida, thinking that a change Of eli
mate and water and the citron fruit
might cure me, but found no cure.
s"Itheut tried S.S.S Sand after three days
the burning and itching subsidized, and
I continued to improve steadily until I
was w~ell-entirely cured. After COM
mencing S. S. S. I never put an exter.
nal application to my limbs or any part
of my body. You may refer to me any
person suffering from Eczema. I will
always keep the S. S. S. in my house,
for I consider it the best blood medicine
of the present age. I am seventy years
of age and am now in perfect health"
For real blood diseases relief can only
