It is evident from the above figures that it does, for shrewd business men do not invest

An deliberately illustrated article,
"Tennyson and His Friends at
Freshwater," by V. C. Scott O'Con-
nor, appears in the December Cen
fury. The author says of the poet:
Willingly, he took no part in the
destruction of life. His sympathy
with nature led him to mourn over
the cutting down of trees, as if they
were, like the grove in Dante's I'm
ferno," the abode of his personal
friends, and he never would con-
sent to his flowers at Farringford
being plucked. II can very we'll re-
member the look on his face" Miss
Weld, his niece, tells me- when he
met me one day, returning from
his meadows with a wheelbarrow
full of fading daffodils plucked by
me with the lavish hand of a child
He gazed at them very sorrowfully
and in gentle words expressed his
regret that so much beautiful life
had been needlessly sacrificed. "

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portions of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inhamed con-
dition OF the mucous lining OF the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
intiamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free.

ParSnip Complexion.

1t does not require an expert to detect
the sufferer from kidney trouble The
hollow cheeks, the sunken eyes, the
dark, puffy circles under the eyes, the
sallow parsnip-colored complexion in
dicates it.
A physician would ask if you had
rheumatism, dull pain or ache in the
back or over the hips, stomach trouble,
desire to urinate often, or burning or
scalding in passing it; if after passing
there is an unsatisfied feeling as if it
must be at once repeated, or if the
urine has brickdust deposit or a
strong odor.
When these symptoms are present no
time should be lost in removing the
cause.
Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of
the bladder, Inflammation, causing
stoppage, and sometimes requiring the
drawing of the urine with instruments,
or may run into Bright's disease, the
most dangerous stage of kidney trou-
BILE.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great
discovery of the eminent kidney and
bladder specialist, is positive remedy
for such diseases. Its reputation is
worldwide and it is so easy to get at
any drug store that no one need suffer
any length of time for want of it.
However, if you prefer to first test
it's wonderful merits, mention the Ma
rietta Journal and write to DR.. Kilmer
& Co., Binghampton, n. Y, for sam
pie bottle and book telling all obout it,
both absolutely free by mail.

How to Behave

I take at random two specimens
from an early Victorian manual:
when entering the boudoir of a
lady friend, a gentleman should be
very careful to remove his hat, "
and IF at dinner party you have
the honor to sit next your hostess,
and she depute to you the duty of
carving leg Of mutton, and if, in
doing go, you inadvertently upset
this joint into your hostess hap do
not, as the vulgar would, apologize
profusely and offer to buy her a
new dress, but pass it off lightly as
a joke" Strange though it seems,
the arbiter of conversation and Ell
quette in the present day has made
no great advance from such modes
of wisdom. Saturday Review.
