Governor Davis CnIcimined.

Little Rock, Ark, June 9.-Gov. JEFF
ferson Davis yesterday accepted the
invitation of the Baptist church of
Russellville, his home, and r%ejoined
that church. The governors friends
claim that this is a v~indication of
him by his home people against the
action of the Second Baptist church
OF Little Rock, in withdrawing fell
lowship from him. 1t is alleged fur
Their by the governors friends that
the action taken by the Little Rock

INCREASING OF SWEETNESS.
Remarkable Increase in the Consump
tion of Sugar.

Remarkable Increase in the Consu mp
tion of Sugar.
Medical men, If not psychologists,
might find an interesting subject of
study In the largely increased consump-
ton of sugar in the last 100 years. In
the first quarters Of the last century
the average per capita In the United
States was eight pounds, and in the last
decade it ranged from sixty to sixty
eight pounds. In Great Britain it rose
to about ninety pounds per year before
the century's end.
The cause of this advance was purely
economic. Time was when sugar was a
costly luxury, INDUCED in only by the
rich or decidedly well-to-do, but that
was because 1t was scarce, for all man.
KIND have sweet tooth. The produc-
ton has increased so enormously that
the saccharine product has become
cheap, and is consequently rated as
necessary of life. Moreover, the mass
OF people in civilized countries have
become so much better off as the result
OF industrial progress that their stand
ard of living is much higher than 100
Years ago, though they may be no more
contented with it.
The growing plenty caused cheapness
and consumption kept steady pace with
production. Appetite for sweets grew
with what 1t fed OH. OF course, 1t is not
plain sugar alone in which the people
now indulge so freely, but all manner
OF CONNECTIONS and preserves; and what
Is set down as the consumption or
country includes what it puts up in one
combination or another and sends
abroad.
But the question with which we be-
gan is, What Is the effect upon health,
or upon mind and morals, of this vastly
increased consumption of material
sweetness? Has it anything TO do with
the rise or fall of prevalent diseases,
upon the death rate or upon the genial
influences of civilization? Now that
philosophy is seeking a physical basis
Tor everything in human nature, 1t
might inquire whether the sugar habit
mas anything to do with the sweetness
and light" of humanity.-New York

Nothing Wasted.

A Scottish farmer, when going to
market, it was observed, always took
a hen with him in his trap. The
reason was never known until one day
he took friend with him for the drive.
Every place the farmer stopped he put
the nosebag on his horse, and the hen
was 30 trained that what dropped from
the bag she would pick up, so there
was nothing wasted.

thousands of women suffer from sys-
temlc catarrh. This is sure to produce
such symptoms as cold feet and hands,
sick headache, palpitation of the heart
and heavy feelings in the stomach.
Then begins series of experiments
with medicine. They take medicine
for sick headache. They take medicine
for nervous prostration, for palpitation
of the heart, for dyspepsia. None of
these medicines do any good because
they do not reach the cause of the COM
plant.
PeIuna at once mitigates all these
symptoms by removing the cause.
Systemic catarrh is the trouble. Sys-
temic catarrh pervades the whole sys.
tenn, deranges every organ, weakens
every function. No permanent cure
can be expected until the systemic ca
tarrh is removed.
This is exactly what Peruna will do.

Bear their eagles high no more.

Strew dark Actium's fatal shore;
Though no glittering guards surround me,
Prompt to do their masters will.

Turned aside from glory's ray
His who, drunk with thy caresses,
Madly threw a world away.
As for thee, star-eyed Egyptian!
Glorious sOrceress of the Nile!

With the splendors of thy smile.

Let his brow the laurel Irvine;

Iriumphing in love like thine.

What Our Congressman Are Doing.

Washington, January 21.-Repre.
sentative Latimer called at the De-
pertinent of Agriculture to-day to
see Prof. Whitney about having a
soil survey made in the upper part
of South Carolina. In the opinion
of Mr.. Latimer the farmers of that
section would greatly better their
condition by diversifying their crops.
His object in asking the depart
ment of this soil survey Of Anderson,
Oconee and Pickens counties is to
find out for what crop the land is
best suited. He says he heard it
quite generally suggested that the
soil of the Piedmont section is well
adapted to the culture of tobacco,
and he hopes for some encouraging
information on this subject from the
survey. The Department has ex.
pressed it's willingness to have the
survey made, probably next June,
if the farmers of the Piedmont will
show a like interest in the matter.
Mr.. Latimer is anxious that his con-
stituents will make an early applica-
tion for the survey.

Five Rrutes Assault Girl.

Tallulah Falls, Ga. January 1s.--A
terrible crime is said to have been COM
mitted several days ago in the Germany
district of Rabun county. Five men are
charged with assault, SO it is reported.
and it is said that their victim was Mary
Green, aged Id years.
The affair has created the greatest
excitement in this section of the State
and lynching may be the outcome. 1t
seems that the girl was visiting at the
house of kirsman and that he had
fallen out with her father. In order to
get revenge, so il is reported, he planned
q dastardly act. He locked his wife, the
little girls sister, in room and four of
his companions, who were drinking,
were invited to his home, where each
one assaulted the little girl.
She was left in the room whom the
Williams had accomplished their purpose
and was found several hours later in an
unconscious state. Knife cuts were
found on her body and she recovered
sufficiently to tell what had happened to
her.
1t is said the assault was planned in a
spirit of revenge. The solicitor general
is investigating the matter.

Telephone TO Supersede Telegraph.

1t has been only few years since
the invention of the telephone and it
has proven itself one of the most
useful as well as most marvellous
inventions of the age. 1t has in
some measure taken the place of the
telegraph and now it is given out
that one of the greatest railroad sys-
TENS in the West, the Illinois Cen
trai, is to put in telephone line to
supersede the telegraph in transmit
ting train orders and in operating it's
entire system of roads. 1t is claimed
for it that the new syst em will afford
greater safety in operating trains
and will cost less. Still we would
not like to ride over a line managed
by telephone. They might have
some difficulty in calling up central"
and then the dickens would be to
pay. We don't think it will work
well.

Tallulah Falls Railroad a Success.

Tallulah Falls, Ca, January 1s.--Pre.
liminary preparations, looking toward
the construction of the Tallulah Falls
Railway to its objective point, Franklin,
n. c., continue to manifest themselves
in this section. A very large order foI
trestle timber has been given out and
contractors are in daily consultation
with the able general manager of the
road, Stanhope Irwin.
That the road will be built to Franklin
is almost certainty now, and when
completed no line of travel will be better
patronized. Mr.. Gilohrist, formerly OF
Montgomery, Ala, is the civil engineer
of the construction work now under way,
and with him at the helm success is
assured. For though many miles of the
new line will enter a country as rough as
the scenery is grand, nevertheless Col.
Gilchrist, whose engineering feats in
Dakota and Minnesota wero the envy of
his colleagues, indicating the power of
his masterly brain and guiding hand,
will, If left alone and given free rein,
to complete and satisfactory finish.
This new railroad will open up Soc
ton of country almost unknown to the
citizens of our State. It's agricultural
lands, its glorious forest timber and
mineral wealth will indeed be revela-
tion to many.
Options are being now bought and
sold, on timber wator power, mineral
and much more besides. There is some
thing loft, and always will be, that no
man can control in this glorious noun
tain region, and that is climate. And as
a result of climate, good health" 1t
is the cheapest thing in these mountains
to-day--for its free to all comers, rich and
poor alike.

Commission will hold examinations
at several places in each State dur
ing March and April, to secure young
men and women for the government
service. 9,S89 persons secured posi-.

nations. Probably 10000 appoint
ments will be made this year. All
appointments are for life and fol
most positions only common school
education is required. Salaries at
appointment vary from $500 to
$1,000 year with liberal promo
tions afterward. Politics is not con.
sidered. There is less competition
in the Southern States than in other
parts of the country. This affords a
