 Colonel Jackson is we'll and favoraoly known to all citizens of Jefferson county.

 There are 1850 miles of putlic roads in Jefferson county. 2l5 of which are ma cadamized, and Colonel Jackson during the past three years has brought them to a high degree of efficiency, and has added many miles of macademized roads to the county system of highways. The roads of Jefferson county are now con- ceded to be the best in the south. and to Colonel Jackson is due in a large meas ure the credit for their good condition. ". II. Holmes of the road department at Washington, when here last fall. pro- nounced them the best he had seen any where in the south.
 Colonel Jackson Is now engaged in cut ting down the steep grades in the county, and in a short time under tlfs policy the roads will be in a better condition than ever before.

The story is of love grown cold or
of affection that was misplaced.
Brown was a farmer aged "a. He has
worked in the neighborhood for two
years and has always been a steady
and conservative young man. He has
been paying ardent court to Miss
Kate Schuyler daughter of a well
known farmer of the neighborhood
and his suit has not prospered. AT
any rate it did not run smoothly, and
last Sunday Miss Schuyler went to
Lawton to the street fair with another
young man who was counting her.
Upon her return Brown quarreled
with her and when she met him in
Kinghsher yesterday and he desired
to converse with her II is said she re-
fused to talk with him. He walked
away telling her she would never see
Rim again. The remark was not con-
sidered seriously. A few hours later
his lifeless body was found in the
road two miles from town with bull
let hole in his head. The circum-
stances admit no other theory than
that of suicide.

A Famous Expression.

SThere's manv slip 'twixt the
cup and the lip is a very old saying
and was first uttered to the king Of
Samos, an island in the Grecian ar
chipelago. This king, Ancaus by
name, planted vineyard and treat
ed the slaves who cultivated it SO
badly that one Of them told him he
would never live to taste the wine
made from it. When the wine was
ready and a cup of it poured out for
the king, he sent for the slave who
had prcphesied his death and ask
ed him what he thought Of his
prophecy now.
The slave replied, ssThere's many
a slip 'twixt the cup and the lip"
and just as he had spoken the words
Ancaus received warning that a
wild boar had broken into his vine
yard and was running it. Putting
down the wine untasted, he rushed
out to attack the boar and was
killed.

Brain Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most competent
authorities. They have dispelled
the silly notion that one kind of
food is needed for brain, another for
muscles, and still another for bones.
A correct diet will not only nurish
a particular part of the body, but it
will sustain every other part. Yet,
however good your food may be, it's
nutriment is destroyed by indiges-
ton or dyspepsia. You must pre-
pare for their appearance or pre-
vent their coming by taking regular
doses of Greene's August Flower, the
favorite medicine of the healthy
millions. A few doses aids diges-
ton, stimulates the liver to healthy
action, purifies the blood, and makes
you feel bouyant and vigorous. You
