Mothers Make It the Home Medicine
For the Little 0nes.

The children, God bless them, are the buds
and flowers of our homes. Without their
prattle and hearty laughter, our homes would
be desolate. They should ever be carefully
tended in childhood and youth, if we expect
them to ripen into perfect men and women.
In the home and at school, the children
have their times OF i'll health and suffering.
We often note the pallid and bloodless cheeks,
heavy eyes, nervous movements, and twltch.
ings of limbs and muscles. They complain OF
headache, drowsiness, WEAKNESS, dyspepsia,
and indigestion. All such symptoms and all
ments mean that the seeds of disease will have
a fast and finn hold, unless proper measures
are taken 10 restore a perfect condition OF
health.
Thousands of wise and prudent parents have

An American traveller, just back
from northern Italy, declares that he
found gold in the mountains about
the headwaters of the rivre Ticino,
and is going back to work the mines
if he can obtain certain concessions
"Those poor people ought to, be rich I;
they are in distress,' he says. 81 had
not been in Novara a week before the
appearance of the teeth of certain half
wild goats attracted me They looked
exactly as if they had been plugged
with gold. I asked if there was a
goat dentist in the country. A mega
tive answer induced me to buy an
aged Billy, and make examination:
What do you suppose. I found? Real
gold: Honest! Yes, sir. Those goats
browsed among the mountain sides
where the grass was so short they had
to bite up the ground to get it. In so
doing they had uncovered gold par
ticles and gotten them between their
teeth. I followed them for several
weeks and found the mines. New

Heirs Bob Up serenely.

The Secretary of State has begun q
suit in escheat for a piece of property
near the State dispensary recently
owned by Amelia Buggs. The pro-
perty is valued at about $4,000, and
the woman, it is stated, died without
heirs. Since the proceeding has been
commenced by Thomas and Gibbes, re-
presenting Secretary of State CAN'T,
three alleged heirs have been found.
Two of them are in Chicago and one in
Asheyille. They claim that the wo-
men who died last year are related and
that the property rightfully belongs
to them. The state claims that the al
legged claiments are illegitimate rela-
tives. The case will be heard at the
coming term Of Court. and

RYDALE'S TONIC
j. ZEAL CURE Foa
RI a e a RI q.

Il has recently been discovered that
the germs that produce Malaria, breed
and multiply in the intestines and from
there spread throughout the system
by means of the blood. This fact ex-
plains why Malaria is hard to cure by
the old method Of treatment Quinine,
Iron. etc.. stimulate the nerves and
build up the blood, but do not destroy
the germs that cause the disease.
Rydale's Tonic has a specific effect
upon the intestines and bowels, freeing
them from all disease breeding mi
crobes. 1t also kills the germs that
infest the veins and arteries. 1t drives
from the blood all poisonous matte!
and makes it rich and healthy.
RYDALE'S TONIC is a blood
builder, nerve resto.er, and Malaria
destroyer. Try it, j. VIII not disap

He became, too, the life Of the garri-
son and one of its most popular mem
bers. His popularity, however, led to
his taking part as second in duel be-
tween two Of his comrades. AS re-
suit he was sentenced to Eve years inn
prisonment in the fortress Of Magde-

son in Wittelberg who was glad Of the

continue his experiments. There, too
a month after his Incarceration he per
fected his method Of galvanic gliding

1t was granted and with it pardon.
a pardon in al: probability was never
received with less glee. Siemens had
other experiments under way in his

lowed to stay awhile longer and COM
plete them. But the keeper sent him
away with the declaration that such a
course would be an insult to his king

"a stone mason's work is injurious

All mechanical work is injurious to

The aHeok Worm to be Located

Atlanta, Ga, Sept. 23.-When the
secretary Of the state board of health
has been established in his Office one
of the first things that he will do will
be to start on hunt for the eggs Of
She hook worm y And this is no joke.
The hook worm, DR.. Stiles, the gov
ercment expert says is the cause of the
lazy disease. Laziness is epidemic
in some sections, but the famous ex-
psrt was jesting when he laid the cause
to the hook worm. This worm is
about an inch long and has a hook
shaped mouth with which he fastens
himself 70 the intestines Of man and
there sucks the life blood. Dr..
Harris, secretary Of the board OF
health, has found in one patient as
high as $50 of these hook worms.
Some of them live to be eight years
old. AS they suck the blood of the
zictim he becomes pale and weak. He
is not lazy, as DR.. Stiles seemed tc
intimate bat is sick. There is re-
nasdy for the hook worn and the first
sep is to learn if he is there.
DR.. Harris says the disease is pre-
ralent in North Georgia and ex-
sramely so in South Georgia. It is
often spoken of as the result of dirt
sasing. A man may have all the ap.
pearances of dirt eater, when in fact
he has hook worms.
Dr.. Harris is a bacteriologist oi
great skill and the state has been for.
sunate in securing his services as secre'
Ssry of the board of health. He ha:
entered upon his duties with great
earnestness and an untold amount Of
good will follow his efforts.

TIPPING AMONG WOMEN.

creasing in Smart SET.
q dispach from Salt Lake to The
New York Sun says: Bronson Howard
the dranatist, holds the women of New
York's Four Hundred in contempt
He believes their escapades are res
ponsible for the bad name the womer
of New York are receiving all over
the world
Today Mr. Howard, who is here OF
visit, was asked if it were true chat
the drink habit is making slaves OF
New York women. Mr.. Howard said
The reports that recently have been
sent ont from New York to the effect
ehat the women Of the metropolis and
the East in general are rapidly be-
coming addicted to the habit of ezces-
siye drinking, while founded on GER
tain facts. are false.
The American women are not be
coming addicted TO the drink habit,
and I do not hesitate to make the as
sertion that they never viii. During
the past few years, there has been a
decided movement in several circles,
not oclyin New York, but all over this
country, and in England as WELL TO
abolish the practice Of immoderation
in the taking of wine.
The facts upon which the stories
shat have been sent out from New
York TO the effect that the drink habit
IS growing among women were found
ed are these: The social set of New
York, known over the world as the
400, is an extremely fast set.
The members of it drink much
wine. and daily We hear stories in New
York OF some woman who is re-
cognized member of this set having
become intoxicated at some cne of the
many dinners or functions given under
IFS auspices, making herself ridicul-
0us or committing some act, that aft
erward becomes notorious, while uuder
ahe influence Of wine.
They are not all true, but ! believe,
in speaking Of that certain class. it
might truthfully be said that the drink
habit is increasing.
The 400' does not, however, in
auence the manners or customs Of So
Sciety in any part of the country to the
least degree. It is looked upon more
as curiosity than body of people
whose antics or manner of living
should be initiated.
sBy their fast living, the members
Of the Four Hundred and particu-
larly women members. have divorced
themselves from New York society,
and have been ignored by the more
genteel, refined and temperate ele-
nens.
So il is all over the country. Any
person, it makes no difference how
exalted her social position may be,
who undertakes the pursuit of pleasure
BY becoming ilnmoderate and intem-
psrate IN the use Of liquor or by fast
conduct, is soon divorced by her form
ar associates.
The tendency OF the present times
IS toward moderation in all things,
and there are no grounds for the wide
- circulated report that the habit Of
drink is increasing SO rapidly among
shs women of New York that it may
be expected that within few years
public drinking places where wine is
served and similar in character to the
barroom conducted for the use Of the
male population, will be opened in
New York TO supply the demand of the
Romen Of that city for liquor
