AFAkSE FACE.

When dyspepsia fastens on man il
changes his feelings and it changes his
looks. He frowns now instead of smil-
ing. His expression is harsh instead of
kindly. He is wearing a false face-a
face which does injustice to the real
nobility of his nature.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
cures dyspepsia and other diseases of
the stomach and allied organs Of diges-
ton and nutrition, and the record of the
cure is written both in the face and the
feelings of the person cured.
"Golden Medical Discovery" is not a
stimulant or temporary tonic. 1t cures
the diseases that are the cause Of ill
health and builds up the body with
sound flesh.
Accept no substitute for vGolden Med
ical Discovery" The sole motive for
substitution is to enable the dealer to
make the little more profit paid on the
sale of less meritorious medicines.
uIast spring, early, wrote you my feelings
and condition - says Mr. A. J. Vanderwater of
Sz3 West Division Street Chicago, Ill, "and you
advised me to take DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery, and then write how I felt am

four or FIVE walls of the little Pellets They
have done me worlds Of good. All my friends

The medicines have made the great change IN
me from the slow NOPE OF man that could
hardly crawl, tired and sick all the time, could
do no work to a man who can work, sleep eat
and feel fine, and that tired feeling all gone
away 1 am very thankful that wrote to Dr.

OFR1cE OF ]. r. LAssITER.
HENDsONvILLE, S. c., Sep

HENDsONVILLE, 5. Q, Sept. 2, 1896.
Mr., A. B. GIRARDEAU, Savannah Ga.
DEAR SIR:-Some years ago operated float
inc saw mill on the Savannah River. My base of
operations was being constantly changed, and my
Influences I employed over one hundred hands,
and the work was conducted as much in water as
out of it. For this reason, in August and Septem-
ber there was great loss of time and business, on
account of sickness among the workers.
Ny attention was then called to Johnson's Chill
and Fever Tonic, and I determined to give the
medicine trial. l procured it, and those who
we're sick we're put on this treatment and those who
we're feeling badly were at once given the Tonic.
In short time every one ofthe one hundred hands
was well and reported for duty; and from that time
on I used nothing else but Johnson's Tonic, and
never had another case of fever.
Yours very truly,
j. r. LASSITER.

College Education and Success.

The value Of college education,
as we estimate it Ia this country, lies
wholly in the application that is made
of it. One who possesses it, but does
not know how to put to use, Is like the
man who stands at telephone with
vital business to transact through 1T.
and who is unable to get the neces-
sary connection. This man may have
the clearest possible voice, the plain
est speech and be able to couch his
message in the best chosen words, but
all his efforts are vain without the
medium between him and the ear be
needs. The college graduates that
are pouring upon society 10 a yolcan-
ic flow this month must get all their
connections with the world. Some
will do it, and some will not. Per-
haps, thinks the New York mail and
Express, fewer will do it than ever
before. The proportion of stranded
graduated seems increasing. The
world was always made for the sue
cessful man, but it seems to-day to
be more than ever the property Of
him who succeeds, A college ednca-
ton will contribute greatly to any
mans success-proyided he was going
to succeed anyway.

Advertising as a Creative Force.

Some firms advertise to get business.
but the wiser ones advertise TO make
it.
Advertising to get business is the
use OF publicity to sell staples that
the public is buying Whole else,
and results merely in the transfer OF SO
much traffic from Peter to Paul, Adj
vertising that makes business edu-
Gates the buying public to new COM
modities and new methods OF pur-
chasing. In the long run it is the
most remuneratiye sort Of advertis-
ing, for it increases the buying ca
pacity of the average man and the
volume OF trade. Publicity that
creates two dollars worth Of business
where there was but one is good for the
advertiser, the buyer and the world
in general.
Advertising is naturally creative
force. Since it has been applied to
modern commerce there have been
created dozens of commodities and
branches OF trade that did not exist
before its advent.

MORE RAILROAD TALK.
The Story that has been Told
Several Times.

III Is TO be Hoped That Something Will
Result From the Moye-What They
Tell of In Other Counties.
Uniontown News Standard,
Surveyors for the proposed rail
road through Greene Co. to connect
with the Morgantown d. Kingwood
at Morgantown are now at work ia
the vicinity of Waynesburg. Ae-
cording to reports published in the
Independent the line was started at
Morgantown and the river was fol
lowed to Vaudeville. Here a little
stream was struck, and This follow
ed to Mt. Morris Thence along
Dunkard to Colvins Run: thence to
Newtown where heavy cut will be
necessary; thence through Lindsey
Stephens farm to the North branch
OF Whiteley creek, which branch is
followed for some distance, and the
hill, tunneled to ]. NJ Seott's farm.
This tunnel is 400 feet. Thence by
the county home to MooresHille. The
creek is crossed west of the double
bridge east Of this place, following
the north of the creek through the
fair grounds.
From here the survey will be con
tinued, and in all probability practi
cally taking the same course as that
followed by the survey recently made
from Waynesburg to Washington,
presumably in the interest OF the
Wabash but more specifically by
the Greene County Railroad com
pany, which was chartered May
last.
At point beyond Washington
the Wabash will be tapped, so it is
said. There is no reservation In the
information impaired that Senators
Davis and Elkins, Hon. Geo. Stur-
giss and Hen. j. L. McGraw all
prominent in railroad circles in
West Virginia, are back oil the move
ment, or are the leading spirits. The
two first named are identified with
the w. Va Central and Mr.. Stur
giss is the president of the Morgan
town d Kingwood railroad, and Mr.
McGraw is identified with railroads
in the Mountain state. Strength il
given to the enterprise from the fact
that nearly year ago these gentle
men commenced to plan the move
ment and communicated the facts tt
prominent Waynesbafg people.
Tho cnrVau or pnnfn has hppn All
proved or adopted to Vaudeville
which is about six miles down ths
Monongahela river from Morgan
town. Further il will be remember
ed that bill passed congress las
session granting the erection OF
bridge across the Monongahela riH
er at or near Morgantown. This &C
was in the interest of this railroad
movement.
