WENT THE WRONG WAY.

Senator Sibley, the famous trotting horse breeder, had taken his family to the county fair and was walking about the grounds surrounded by his young sters-of which he has something less than a dozen-when he felt one of them tugging at his coat tails. As he turned the youngest, d lad of six. implored his father to buy him toy balloon.
 Buy it yourself said the wealthy PeEnsylvanian. Where's the nickel 1 gave you q moment ago."

 Well, shake it out said MT. Sib- ley.

OBERLIN II. CARTER
The Notable Prisoner Whose Future
 Activities May Be in Arizona.

The announcement that Capt. Ober- lin M. Carter, the governments most noted prisoner. is to make his home in Arizona and devote his attention to mining soon after he is reelased from the Leavenworth penitentiary, lends added interest to the subjoined dis
 patch from LeavenWOrth to the Kansas City Star concerning the fallen officer.
 In three months. November IS, Ober- lin M. Carter. eX-captain of engineers in the United States army, will be

released from the federal penitentiary.
 Carter will be released after an act ual service of three years and seven months. He came to the penitentiary in April, l900. Carter was originally under five-year sentence, but he was held ten months in custody as q mili- tary prisoner at Governors Island,
 N. Y., pending appeals before coming here. which time is always allowed in the case or military prisoner, and he gained seven months more by good conduct. At present Carter is hospital clerk and prison flower gardener. the
 positions he held mostly all the time since his incarceration.
 As the day of liberty draws near Carter is manifesting high spirits. He seems just a little undecided as to what he will do when discharged. One of the first matters to receive Carter'c attention will be the suit pending in the United States circuit court at Chi cago, wherein s723,00O is at stake. Prop erty, stocks, bonds and cash in this amount formerly held by Carter is in escrow and a suit is pending to de-
 termine whether Carter or the govern , ment is entitled to it. Carter feels sure of winning the suit. If he wins the suit he expects to devote most of his time to mining engineering and to
 the development of his mine proper
 ties. O; late he has been studying mine engineering.
 When Carter was brought to the pcnitentiary he talked much of his ! anxiety for civil trial. He said that
 lie wanted to have his case passed up- on by a competent civil court. and that hn mt fllr-x
 he would go to Savannah and demand
 trial at once. Of late Carter has not been making any of this talk. It is
 said, however. that he is very bitter against Greene and Gaynor and would willingly appear in court and testify
 against them. The governments extra effortS to have them brought from Canada now is said to be a desire to place them on trial soon after the re- lease of Carter
 Carter Is now truSty, or first grade prisoner. Trusty prisoners are permit ted to go outside the wall on crrandS but Carter does not desire this privil
 eSe. On the contrary. he would not go outside the prison walls unless forced to. He would run a risk of meeting
 military officers whom he knew when he was in the service. An army officer is forbidden to recognize or speak to Carter under penalty of dismissal from the service. Carter's sentence included l this order.
 In his imprisonment at Fort Leaven-
 worth Carter has suffered douhly. The
 military surroundings have instantly | tended to remind him of the past. In | the prison walls he can hear all of
 the trumpet calls for military cere-
 monies and at night generally once a week, when he sits by the window in his cell room over the hospital, ho | hears the orchestra music from Pope hall. where the officers give their | dances. His feelings can be imag- | ined when his thoughts turn to his | present comrades, negroes. Indians, | halfbreeds and the lowest and most ig- | norant whites on earth

THE MEN AND WOMEN
Who Enjoy the Choicest Products
of the Worlds Commerce.
Knowledge of What Is Best More Inn
portant Than Wealth With
out 1t.

1t must be apparent to every one that
qualities of the highest order are neces-
sary to enable the best of the products of
| modern commerce to attain permanently
to universal acceptance. However loudly
heralded, they may not hope for world wide
prominence unless they meet with the
general approval, not of individuals only,
butt of the many who have the happy
faculty Of selecting, enjoying and learn
ing the real worth OF the choicest prod
ucts. Their commentator, consequently,
becomes important to others, since to
meet the requirements of the well in
formed of all countries the method of
manufacture must be of the most per-
feet order and the combination the most
excellent of its kind. The above Is true
not of food products only, but is espe
cially applicable to medicinal agents and
after nearly a quarter Of century of
growth and general use the excellent
remedy. Syrup Of Figs, is everywhere
accepted, throughout the world, as the
best of family laXatives. Its quality is
due not only to the excellence of the
combination of the laxative and carmin-
ative principles of plants known to act
most benefcially on the system and pre-
sented in the form of pleasant and re-
freshing liquid, but also to the method
of manufacture of the California Fig
Syrup Co., which ensures that unformi-
ty and purity essential in a remedy in
tended for family use. Ask any physi-
clan who is we'll informed and he will
answer at once that it is an excellent
laxative. If at all eminent in his pro-
fession and has made a special study of
laXatives and their effects upon the sys-
tenn he will tell you that it is the best
of family laXatives, because it is sim
pie and wholesome and cleanses and
sweetens the system effectually, when
| laxative is needed, without any I'M
pleasant after-effects. Every well-in-
formed druggist of reputable standing
| knows that Syrup of Figs is an excel
lent laxative and is glad to sell it, at
the regular price Of fifty cents per bot
tie, because it gives general satisfac-
ton, but one should remember that in
order to get the beneficial effects of
Syrup Of Figs it is necessary to buy the
genuine, which is sold in original pack
ages only; the name of the remedy
| Syrup Of Figs and also the full name of
the Company-California Fig Syrup Co.
printed on the front of every package.

Letter to G. E. HOxie.

Dear Sir: Let's have a little private
talk by ourselves on business; nobody
else, please, read.
You want to known how to do a
cheap job of painting, and have it look
good. Here it is: The cheapest thing
there is in the way of a good-looking
job-say nothing about its being good
is Devoe: the regular thing in Devoe.
The reason is: Devoe goes further
than anything else. Lead-and-oil is
good-looking; don't go SO far and costs
more. The other paints are more or
less short in one way or another;
don't go so far and costs more than
Devoe
Devoe costs least of all; you don't
mind its lasting longer, do you? We
can't help it; paint that goes further
lasts longer; we can't help it.
Yours truly,
F. w. DEVOE & co.

WHY HEY POSI- III.
5owditch & Webster Recommend and
Push Mi-o-na, the Dyspepsia Rem
edy.

IT'S a pleasure to sell medicine
when our customers come in after
wards and tell us how much good it has
done them," said Bowditch & Webster,
the popular druggists to an Augusta
man, land that is why we like to sell
and recommend Mi-o-na, the dyspep-
STA remedy.
The distribution of samples that we
made created SO much talk and so large
Il proportion of those who received a
sample have bought a box of Mi-o-na
that our clerks have been busy selling
the medicine ever since.
I'VE have SO much faith in this ar
tlcle that we are going to guarantee it
in the future, and will return the
money to any purchaser of Mi-o-na
whom it does not cure. That may
seem rash but our customers have said
so many good words in it's favor that
we do not expect to have many pack
ages returned.
ANY one who has dyspepsia, whose
food does not digest well, who has to
take thought as to what he can eat,
and when, can leave so cents de-
post at our store and take home a box
of M1-o-na and if the remedy does not
regulate his digestion and cure his dys-
pepsla, he can withdraw his money. l
don't know but what we would be will
ing to pay him interest"
This shows great faith in the merit
of Mi-o-na. 1t is really most unusual
medicine and the rapid increase in sales
since Bowditch & Webster introduced
it in Augusta shows that it does all
that it claims to do,-cures dyspepsia.
regulates digestion and enables those
who use it to eat just what they want
and when they want with no fear of
trouble.

after a filter-bed has been washed,
ii is sometimes thought desirable to
'reWash' or to filter to waste for a short
time. The object of reWaShing is to
displace any turpid or impure water re-
naming in the bed. Filtered water is
preferably used for washing. When Il
filtCr-bcd is washed with filtered water
rewashing is seldom found necessary.
1T is found desirable to sterilize d
filter-bed once in about six months.
This is generally done by the use OF
soda-ash and steam. The water in the
filter is drained off, with the exception
of the water in the filter-bed tank
which is allowed to remain nearly full
| of. water. A few pounds of soda-ash
is scattered into the water and the fill
ter-bed boiled from 80 to 60 minutes by
letting steam into the tank. The adj
vantage of being able to stcrilize a fill
ter-bed is considered to be of great i'm
portance.''
Tho whole process of operating these
filters was explained and shown to the
gentlemen of the party, and then the
return trip was made to Albany. Sub
sequently a visit was made to the plant
of the Albany bureau of water. This
city owns its own works, which include S
pumping station, subsistence. reser-
weir and tanks for filtering PURPOSES
The plant covers 20 acres of ground, of
which five acres are used for the res
ervoir. The water is pumped from the
Hudson river into the reservoir, and
from there sent into the eight filter
tanks. which are capable of handling
100000 gallons daily. No chemicals
are used and in the filtration process
! in vogue here the old Hamburg system
of sand filtration is the system used.
While this system, so far as the
removal of bacteria is concerned, is as
successful as that at Rensselaer, City,
the cost of operation is very much
greater. This system is not so certain
water, Is per cent. being the average,
while the American system removes
10 per cent. and upwards.
Common sand is used at the Albany
works. sand which has been dug from
the bed of the Hudson river, but its use
has been found effectual in complet-
ing filtration. Albany has a population
of nearly 100 900 and yet, according to
the official report of the department of
public works. for the year 1902, it APP
pears that the deaths from typhoid fe-
yer have been very slight.
In Rensselaer, City, before the intro
duction of the plants, typhoid fever
was very prevalent, but since that time
few cases are reported to the local
Board of Health. Whether this is an
argument in favor of chemical filtra-
ton the searoher of the truth must de-
termine.
