10 Damage to Peach Cron.

MACON, March 7.-Advices received
here from the surrounding country,
which constitutes the bulk of the Geor-
gia peach belt, indicates that no serious
injury has been done to the peach buds
by the last cold snap. This is due to
the fact that few of the buds had opened
and the accompaniment Of high wind
to the cold weather, which prevented
frost. In the extreme southern portion
of the fruit belt, where the trees were
more advanced, some damage has been
done.

Mistakes of Women.

A writer in the Buffalo Times talks
OF the mistakes of women as follows:
zone of the mistakes OF women lie
in not knowing how to eat, II man
is not to be fed when she is, she
thinks a cup OF tea or anything at
hand is good enough. If she needs
to save money she does 1t at the
butchers cost. II she is busy, she
will not waste time in eating. II she
is unhappy, she goes without food.
A man eats il the sheriff is at the
door, If his work drives, II the un-
dertaker interrupts; and he is right.
A woman will choose ice cream in
stead Of beefsteak and man will
not.
Another Of her mistakes is in not
knowing how to rest. II she is tired
she may sit down, but she will darn
stockings, crochet shawls, embroid-
er doilies. She doesn't know that
hard work tires, II she is exhausted,
she will write letters, figure her ac-
counts or read up for some circle or
club. She would laugh at you il you
hinted that reading or writing could
fail to rest her. All oyer the coun-
try women's hospitals flourish be-
cause women do not know how to
rest
Another mistake on the list is
constant worrying. Worry and
hurry are their enemies, and yet
they hug them to their bosoms.
Women cross bridges before they
come to them, and even build
bridges. They imagine misfortune
and run out to meet it.
Women are not Jolly enough.
They make too serious a business of
life, and laugh at its little humors
too seldom. Men can stop in the
midst Of perplexities and have a
hearty laugh, and it keeps them
young. Women cannot, and that is
one reason why they fade 80 early
there are other reasons, but we must
pass them now. Worry not only
wrinkles the face, but 1t wrinkles
and withers the mind. Have a
hearty laugh once in while; it is q
good antiseptic, drives away evil
imaginlngs, bad temper and other
! Ul -

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought OF using
anything else for indigestion or bill
iousness. Doctors were scarce, and
they seldom heard of appendicitis,
nervous prostration or heart failure,
etc. They used August Flower to
clean out the system and stop fer
mentation of undigested food, regu-
late the action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of
the system, and that is all they took
when feeling dull and bad with head
