MCFARLAND EDITORIALS.
Pastor First Methodist Church
Criticises Supreme Court.

Rev. J. T. Mcfarland. pastor of the
First M e. church had three topics
for brief editorial consideration. at his
Sunday evening service. The first was
ard against the impeachment of Mayor
Parker. I'm the discussion of the at
torney general, he said, there was a
statement SO sinister that it is hoped
1t was unwarranted. He declared that
a majority of the Justices of the SUI
preme court would not want to see the
prohibitory law enforced and he cited
as proof the Hughes-Parker decision.
The attorney general gave his reasons
for declining to prosecute the mayor
and the public will Judge as to their
validity. l do not care to enter upon
any criticism because know of no rea-
son why it was not honestly given. But
the decision can not be take-, as NOR
al victory for the supporters of the
Parker administration. The attorney
general did not entertain any doubt as
to the mayors infidelity in office. But
1t being necessary for the mayor and
county attorney to report on the viola
ton of the law. it is not to be expected
that two unfatthful officials would in
criminate one another
The gist of Rev. Mr.. McFarland's Sec
ond editorial was that the yiolators of
law were anything but philanthropists.

treasury unless he were compelled to

ways committed for a selfish considera-
ton. 1t has been shown that a large
part of these criminals were not pay
ing into the city. The money goes into
the pockets of some people who pledge
them immunity. It may not be posi-
BILE to show Technically where this blood

An Ideal Medicine.
A New Discovery which Cures All
Forms of Catarrh.

The tablet is the ideal form in which
to administer medicine, but until re-
Gently no successful catarrh tablet had
ever been attempted. There is now,
however, an excellent and palatable
remedy for catarrh in tablet form,
known as Stuart's Catarrh Tablets and
most recent discoveries in medicine for
cure of catarrh, and results from their
use have been highly gratifying.
The old time treatment of catarrh
was in the form of inhalers, washes,
douches, sprays, etc. Later on internal
remedies were used with greater sue
cess, but being in liquid or powder
form We're inconvenient to use and like
all medicines in liquid or powder
form, lose their medicinal properties
when opened or exposed to the air.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain
highly concentrated antiseptics. Red
Gum, Blood Root, etc, which kill the
catarrh germ in the blood and mucous
membrane, and in this respect are
strictly scientific and modern. because
tarrh is a constitutional blood disease,
and local application can have only a
transitory effect.
The use of inhalers, douches and
sprays is a nuisance and inconvenience,
and can in no wise compare favorably
with the same antiseptics given in tab
let form internally, where they can
reach the stomach and blood and kill
catarrh germs right where they are
produced.

photos for my collection. / am thus

Gen. Henry Lees ("Light Horse Har-
ry) grave at Dungenness, both taken
by amateurs, yet excellent work. Sa-
vannah is one of the few cities of old
colonial days that have large inter
est in the Liberty Bell. But for the
hearty co-opera tion of the Southern
colonies, so fruitful of heroes and pa
triots, IL would not have been possible
for this now famous bell to have been
used to Proclaim Liberty" to the peo-
pie of the new republic.
The photo of Gen. Henry Lees grave
came in the same mail with a letter
from Mrs. William Atwood. the histo-
rian of Mcintosh County Chapter, L.

sketch by Mrs. Helen S. Barclay of

route to visit his illustrious fathers
grave on Cumberland Island which l
shall publish in my next letter. Mrs.
Atwood thus refers to the matter: II
take the liberty of sending it to you,
since it settles the fact of Gen. Lees
visit to Cumberland Island, in 1869.
