Mr.. Penley, otherwise Charley's Aunt,
told the following: "a military man, Il
friend of Mr.. Penley, took his daugh-
ter to the stalls and. having n busy and
firing day, went calmly TO sleep in his
easy seat during the interval between
the curtain raiser and 'Charley's Aunt
The daughter sympathetically allowed
him to remain in peace until the cur
tain went up for the commencement Of
the play of the evening; then she gen.
tly nudged him in the ribs and whis-
pered 'Charley's Aunt! to remind him
of his whereabouts.
"The gentleman still slept on, and
his daughter tried again. She gave
her father an extra push and murmur-
ed, with emphasis: Papa, DO wake up!
"Charley's Aunt!'
'"rhis time it was effectual, for the
colonel leaped TO his feet and cried,

Of the World Today is Good
Health and the knowledge of
How to Attain 1t.

In the practical solution of this
problem DR.. Horne has proven him
self master. To sit for an hour in
his reception room and hear the words
of praise, the outpourings of thank
full hearts made in the assurance of
returning health, will give encourage
ment to any sufferer. The lame, the
blind, the deaf, the consumptive, the
cancer victim, the paralytic the aged
who have endured lifetime of suffer
ing, the pale, shrunken form of the
infant, borne tenderly in the arms of
the hopeless mother; yes, every class
of afflicted persons find their way to
DIR. Horne. Most of them come after
other doctors have failed to cure them
The other doctors have dragged
them to the verge of death itself; or,
in many cases, operated" on them
and destroyed their last reasonable
hope of cure. Despondent, suffer-
ing, hopeless they come, but they all
go away cheerful, free from pain and
rejoicing in that greatest of all bless
ings, good health. To sit for an hour
in his reception room and converse
with these convalescents, to hear some
tell of relative or friend that he has
permanently cured or to sit and read

The sense of smell, so notably devel-
oped in savages and some of the lower
animals, is not ordinarily very acute
among civilized people. An extraordi-
nary exception has been brought to no.
tice by DIR. Bett, a German observer.
In one of his male friends the sense is
so keen that acquaintances are at once
recognized by their personal odor at a
distance of several PAGES, and the man
makes no mistakes. even when secure
ly blindfolded. The faculty is not keen
er in the bloodhound. This individual
asserts that every family has it's char
acteristic odor and that members of the
family are to be distinguished by the
degree of the odor.

We Know Something that Cures All
Pulmonary Troubles.

There seems to be an epidemic of
colds.
1t is strange how many people start
in with a cold that they have con-
tracted during the autumn months.
Such colds are dangerous, for unless
cured when the weather is warm it is
very difficult to get rid of them when
really inclement weather appears.
onot, if you have cold, go through
this winter and let it pull you down. A
racking cough may be the means of I'M
dermining your constitution, terminal
ing in consumption, when there will be
no hope for escape.
Cod-Liver Oil has always been the
greatest known specific for consump-
ton. Naturally Cod-Liver Oil has been
given for colds which are regarded by
many people as the first stage of this
disease. There is no need of our tell
ing you the drawbacks of Cod-Liver
Oil; the vile, greasy mixture was so re-
pellent that not more than one person
in ten could take it. But Cod-Liver
Oil did cure where it could be taken.
Now we have cod-liver oil prepara-
ton that cures just as surely as did
this vile remedy. We refer to Vinol.
Anybody can take Vinol. / tastes de-
licious, and because it contains the
active curative principles that made
consumption and other wasting dis
eases. it will be readily seen how valu-
able ii is for all such troubles.
Here is one letter taken from many
that are continually coming to our
notice. Mrs. +. Coghlan, 123 Putnam
Ave, Cambridgeport, Mass, says:
Last September l contracted a
heavy cold which terminated with ton
silitis, and later the grip. All winter
had a dreadful cough, and the doctor
advised me to take several things,
among them Cod-Liver Oil. l tried it
for several months without obtaining
relief. At last / heard of Ninol and
gave it a trial. Five bottles cured me
and have had no troubles since"
When we talk of VinoI, we
know of what we speak, and will
refund your money if you are not
satisfied.

Atlanta, Jan. 2s.--The Supreme Court
to-day decided In the case of T. S. Coffee
end other proprietors of the DeKalb
Standard against W. NJ. Ragsdale,- ordi-
nary of DeKalb county, that the ordinary
of q county and all other county officials
must publish all their legal advertisement, 8
in the paper In the county In which the
sheriff's advertisements are published.
Ordinary Ragsdale refused to give his
advertisements to the Standard when the
sheriff changed from the New Era TO that
paper.
Mandamus proceedings were instituted
and overruled in DeKalb Superior Court.
The Supreme Court reverses that decis-
ion and says, after a careful review Of
the sections of the code applicable, that
the ordinary and all other county officers
must publish all their legal advertise
ments in the same paper In which the
county sheriff publishes advertisements.
County officers must also change their
medium of advertisement whenever the

THE BRUNSWICK ROW.
Efforts Being Made to Get Gov. Cand-
Ter to the Congress.

lCF ~ thN IOhEEGNHs
Brunswick, Ca, Jau. 2s.--The fact that
1t is the announced INTENT Of some m m
bers of the Brunswick Board of Trade to
bring up the ship-subsidy bill at the nat
ional maritime congress makes it neces-
sary for some ST ong work by Gov. Cand-
ler's friends and they have taken the in
itiative in earnest by writing him appeals
to attend the convention and lead the
fight against the passage of any reso-
luton to that effect. Mr.. Edwin Blob
ston, a Brui swick Board of Trade mem
Der who viii Introduce the resolution, is
an eloquent speaker and hard fighter.
The resolution that he will endeaSor to
have the congress put through is the
same one that he introduced In New Or
leans at the recent Re sion Of the South
ern Industrial Association.
The Board of Trade members, who par
ticipa ted in the effort TO secure Gov.
Gamblers signature to the call for this
Congress, recognize the fact that had he
had the slightest intimation that the
Congress would consider the question of
indorsing the ship-subsidy question they
could have never secured his signature
to the call. They know that he signed
the call as a patriotic Chief Executive
who had only the interest of his people
at heart and thought that the Brunsw ok
Board of Trade wanted the Congress cal
led at this port for the benefit it would
be to Bruins wick particularly. and the
interest of American shipping as a whole
as advocated by the Democratic party in
its platform.
