RATES PUT BACK.
Increase by the G. s. q f. r.. r, Not
Intentional.

Tallahassee, Fla, Jan. 16.-At a
hearing before the Railroad Commits
sion yesterday, it appeared that the
change in rates made by the Georgia,
Southern & Florida Railroad, con-
trary to rules of the commission, had
been unintentional and had been dis
continued. The company agreed to re-
fund to shippers all excess in rates
that had been collected. Judge Hall
stated that the Atlanta, Valdosta &
Western Railroad, the branch upon
which the advance in rates was or
dered, had been running at an an
nual loss of from $4,000 to 100000 a
year, and as the rates in force were
entirely too low, they had been in
creased in order to partly stop the
leak.

from our concern that this commod- ity had gone up in price 15c barrel. Armour cornered 22,0OO,OOO bushels of wheat. We'll, I look at things in this light. About the same time as re- ceived word from the mills that flour had increased in price, I had tele- phone message from the Goshen creamery that butter would sell for two cents pound cheaper, and MT Warner. the man who brings in fresh eggs from the country, writes me that eggs can be sold four cents a dozen cheaper than formerly. So you see these things all go to offset the other advances. After the real cold snap, when eggs are scarce, the hens en- jOyed rest and now they are bound to lay again. It's only natural. It's a good thing to make it point not to worry as you go through this life. Perhaps it wouldn't be so difficult if we went along day by day taking all things philosophically. It was not in- tended that we should amass great fortunes. In my opinion it was in tended that ali of us should have just enough to live comfortably and lit tie more. Why, if we were to get more than we needed as the result o1 our labOrs, there would soon come g time when we wouldn't have to work and when we stop work we stop pro ducing. This would bring about a nice state of affairs, wouldn't it; Waterbury Republican.

A TRINITY 0f EVILS.
Cured by Dr.. Kennedy's New Medicine Ahsr
 Other Treatment Had Failed.

Mir. Martin Montgomery, of Silvara, Penn., formerly of Roxbury, N. Y., writing to Dr. David Kennedy, of Kennedy Row, said:
 "Your NEW medicine, Cal-cura Solvent, is immense. It cured me of liver and kid ney troubles, and rheumatism, after lot of weary dosing with things that did no good. It is @ record breaker and no mis- take"
 As in MT. Montgomery's case, rheuma- tism is often, indeed almost always, com plicated with kidney and liver trouble. It is because Cal-cura Solvent acts on the kid news and liver and at the same time expels uric acid from the blood, that it is such a reliable remedy for rheumatism and the at tendant disorders. It cures by removing the cause, therefore, the cure is permanent, safe and sure. Write to the Cal-cura Company, Kennedy Row, Rondout, N. Y., for free sample bottle.
 Remember: Only one Dr. David Ken nedy ever lived in Rondout, City of Kings ton N.Y., and be sure you get his ne,o and latest medicine, which is sold only in $l.O0 bottles.

A GOOD RECOMMENDATlON.

s'I have noticed that the sale on Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets is almost invariably to those who have once used them," says J: H. Weber, a prominent druggist of Gas cade, Iowa. What better recommenda- tion could any medicine have than for people to call for it when again in need of such a remedy? Try them when you feel dull after eating, when you have bad taste in your mouth, feel bilious have no appetite or when roubled with constipation, and you are certain to be delighted with the prompt relief they afford.

ADDRESS TO THE OCEAN.
WRITTEN FOR THE BEE.

Majestic. grand and ever restless h ocean, Dost thou remember when at birth The Maker formed thee larger part Of earthI Thou of her surface covereth many rood, And at thy finish He pronounced thee good; Didst lend thy voice when morning stars did Did thy best bass with all creation ring? Didst form part of the wide, spreading flood, That drowned the wicked and preserved the Didst reach thine arms in embrace Of of, the sea Vast thou familiar with e-historlc race. That vestages in relics aged we trace? When mortal man rst on thy surface shown? And later didst thou with friendly mien Guide the explorer through thy rocks between; i; When voyage brought Columbus to the West: Found the fair shores that verified his hopes That some wide commerce and large navy Encroached upon thy borders. did thy coast Ddst like the pale face better than the red Who prestage claimed first settlers right he The wooded verdure near thy rolling wave And jagged rocks to thee roug welcome gave. DOst never weary in thy ceaselesS round n Of wash and turmoil back or forward bound? How many, caves deep down in watery bed Has thou their secrets held. what have they Didst tell of treasures, beauties never known, Of sapphire brightness phOSphOret1c stone, Of fishes huge that spOrted in and out When in their revels they did swim about. How through deep fathoms d1dst thou down
 ward look
 When cable wire along thy bed was took? Didst shake thy hoary head, in wonder, see Mans wisdom planned to crcumvent the sea? Do mammoth ships disturb thine equipoise When laundering forth war weapons fire and
 noise,
 Oh! no thine answer all these things must be, Till time last ending of this earth shall see. The missions wide that spread from shore to
 shore,
 help the distance vast to float them OCT, To nations all my use is made quite plain, Had man through me doth wider progress gain My ceaseless courSing ever thus must Do Til1 am lost in God, eternity.
