delighted to sustain the reputation. The white man who blew into the section had in some way gaiiied e similar reputation. He was said to be a dangerous charac- ped. We concluded that we would have some fun. We met the Indian and told him long story about his new rival. and reminded him that his laurels were in danger. We told him all kinds of stories about the white man and succeeded in getting his pride stirred, and his Indian blood was soon up to the fighting point. Soon after this we met the white man. and we filled him up with the same kind of talk. He said he would take care of the Indian all right in due time. and in short, would make him take to the woods. Shortly We met the Indian again. and told him the desperate white man was after his scalp. He smiled and shook his head.
 "A few days later we were talking tu the white man when the Indian came up to join the group. He had spotted tha stranger and knew him by sight. With out saying a word to him he walked up within arms reach and struck the white man in the face with rough heavy glove. He paused for few seconds and hit him again. Ugh! he exclaimed, as he wheeled around and walked away. The white man looked at the Indian in amazement. but made no show of resent ment Later in the day when we asked the Indian why it was that he did not follow up the insult with blows, he told us the white man was a coward. In ex- plaining how he knew 1t he said the man 2 flaw dropped when he struck him in the face the second time with the glove. and that this, with the Indian. was an unfaIing sign of COW lrdice. and he said further that he was awfully sorry he had hit the man at all, for Indians do not like to impose on men who are afraid to fight. The Indian held his laurels all right as the most desperate and most dangerous man in that section of tha west"

Locomotor Ataxia Yields.

Mr.. J.. T. Elliott of No. 5s1S Parker Street, Pittsburg, Pa., was cured of loco motor ataxia by Dr. Williams Pink Pills. He says: "The trouble began with a se- we're pain in the legs and the physician at that time said 1t was muscular rheu- matism. He gave me medicine which ! took for some time without seeing any improvement. The pain continued and my strength kept ebbing away. Finally l was compelled to give up work.
 "A different physician this time said had locomotor ataxia, but only grew worse under his treatment. began to have attacks of vomiting, one of which lasted for sixteen days. l grew thin as a skelton and very weak. Finally l had a consultation of three Pittsburg phy- sicians and they pronounced me incura- ble. The pain in my body and legs con- tinued to increase and became so severe that I had to take morphine sometimes to get relief, I became just about help less, with no control of my legs.
 During the Christmas holidays In 1900 friend sent me clipping from a newspaper telling of a remarkable cure of locomotor ataxia by Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People. So l began taking them. I followed directions carefully and noor began to improve. It was gradual but sure, and now am like another man. I can go around and took three weeks trip a little while ago without experience ing any had results. I have not had pain or a whiting spell sine be- gan taking Dr. Williams Pink Pills" /

JUICE OF LEMON WILL PREVENT
 TYPHOID.
IF JUICE OF THE SOUR FRUIT IS USED FREELY DOCTORS DE- CLARE IT WILL KILL
 TYPHOID GERMS.

New York. Dec. a.-Dr. Ernest C.. Ledele. President of the Health Depart ment, referring to the discovery said to have been made recently in England that lemon juice would kill typhoid germs in water and to have proved by eXperi- ments in Chicago, says he knows these experiments have been tried often before and that many physicians treat their ty- phoid patients with lemon juice.
 ''I haven't made any experiments my self. but I am sure that lemon juice in water will kill germs if enough is used, orange juice will do the same thing, and. in fact. We have been feeding pa tients that right along. There is noth- Ing new in this discovery of lemon juice. It takes more orange juice than lemon juice, because the former has not so much citric acid In it and yet 1t is pow erful neutralizer, There is no doubt that acid will kill typhoid germs"

Only once before in years have the waters bean as high in this seotien as they were. Bridges acr0ss Town Creek in this place were washed away and prop erty flooded that has never been reached before.

 The recent Legislature, before its re- cess, passed bills authorizing the estab- lishment of dispensaries in several coun- ties in the State providing the majority of inhabitants want them.
 Oxford has a Mayor-elect and several Aldermen who are in favor of dispensa- ries and who made that an issue In their campaign

Journalism in Mutes' School.

In connection with the Alabama school for the Deaf and Dumb at Talladega, to which the Legislature while in session last month appropriated $45.000 for i'm provements, is published a weekly paper called The Messenger" and to this publi- cation students of the school contribute.
 It is known that the mute's vocabulary Is limited and their expressions are often amusing when put in writing. Neverthe- ! less they put thought into their actions and contributions to The Messenger are meritorious in their foundation.
 The following clipping from The Mes 6enger which Is story of George Wash lngton, the one-millionth, gives one an idea of their mode of expression:
 George Washington Black was small negro boy. His home was in cabin with a stove-pipe stuck through a hole in the roof for chimney. The one window had more broken panes of glass than whole panes. One morning George was anus Ing the baby by balancing a tin can on his curly head. The baby applauded vigorously by pounding pan with the potato-masher. But when George tried to balance a broom 1t went crashing through the window.
 Their mother stuffed an apron and pair of stockings into Georges hat and stopped the hole. She tied the strings of her old sun bonnet under Georges chin and sent him out to play. George fou~1 hatchet. He went to play in Mr. Ma . } orchard.
 ''Ted and Cleo found him thcre. o! George Washington, said Cleo. He has cut one of MT. Mays little cherry trees said Ted. George hid the hatchet behind his back. Didn't ho said. rabbit bit 1t off,
 "The three children sat down on bench by the side of the road, and the little colored boy heard for the first time of the Father of his Country and the Cherry Tree.
 Led by Cleo and Ted George went to Mir May. Tse Jawge Wash'ion! qua vered he. I'll not tell lies!'
 Mir. May sat down on his wheelbarrow and put on spectacles. Come here and tell me all about it, said he. Good MT. May forgave him and he went home sad, but happy"
 The Messenger is a bright paper and by Its means students in the institution are taught the elements of practical jour nalism
 About fifteen young students are em- plCyed a few hours daily in the mechan- teal plant of the paper and 1t presents a metropolitan appearance
