Pearls In Mussels.

The negroes in the vicinity OF
Aberdeen believe that they
have struck a bonanza on account
of the establishment of the pearl
button factory at that place. The
factory will make buttons from mus
sci shells, and one old negress, with
the help of her son, gathered 1000
pounds of mussel shells in a day
and sold them to the factory, realiz-
ing the magnificent sum OF $500
therefor. While cleaning the shells
she found pearls on the inside,
which were sold for $75, thus max
ing a total of $3.50 for the days
work.

CONSUMPTION is Contagious.

In his report to the legislature,
which has just been laid on the desks
of the members, DR.. Il. j. Mitchell,
superintendent of the Mississippi
Insane Hospital, ventures the opin-
ion that tuberculosis is a contag-
ious disease and urges that special
provisions be made at the institu-
ton in order that patients of this
class may be completely eliminated
from the other wards. DR.. Mitchell
makes some statements regarding
the alarming spread of tuberculosis

Favorable Crop Prospect.

Old residents in Mississippi who
make a careful study of weather con-
ditions are confident that the dry
and open winter that has been ex-
perienced in the State this year au-
gurs favorable farming season. II
is held by these observers that such
winters are invariably followed
by bountiful harvests. The past
two winter and spring seasons have
been exceptionally wet, and this also
gives ground for the hope that con-
ditions will be favorable.

New Brunswick. Dec. 16:-The
Board of Health here has decided that
soft coal smoke Is moi a nuisance by
not taking any action upon the com
plant of Julius H~eidingafeld who

from this matter. When the matter
was brought to the attention of the
board at Its last meeting DR.. 8 V. d.
Clark, the inspector, said other com
plants had been made of like cllarao-
ter. Solicitor Willis, of the board
said the board had always considered
this as matter between parties and
when q motion was made to refer the
matter to counsel no one seconded it
and the matter was dropped. 1t was
thought that If any action was taken
it might lead to some of the factories
here being closed up.

CHAPTER XIV.
sankala Starts on Adventure.

Sankala Starts on Adventure.
Extreme old age is like childhood in
many ways. 1t is spoken of as second
childhood almost universally and what
becomes common expression among
people is usually true. A maxim, an
adage, a quotations. legend or supersti-
ton does not become such until it has
been demonstrated to be true in theory
or has good foundation for its origin.
Old age is like youth in many ways.
Both are pettish, fanciful jealous and
unreasonable and often long for the
impossible. But one of the greatest
similarities in youth and age is the
quickness with which the spark of life
is extinguished or rekindled in either
extreme.
The infant goes to sleep hale and
hearty. 1t awakens to expire from
some sudden attack of disease. The
aged falls to sleep in the most cheerful
moments to awaken no more. The in
FAINT rallies from the point OF death al
most instantly; its face soon wears a
smile and all trace of suffering has
passed.
The aged are given up for lost. The
last spark of life seems extinguished.
But suddenly the dull eye lids reopen
with fash. The wrinkled face is
iekindled with life and the aged limbe
become active. as if youth had re-en-
tered the body. 1t may be spasmodic,
it Is true, but age often battles with
death for hours. days. weeks. months,
and even years.
Sankala slept no more that night.

Olu CeauOg WAS man OF nerve. ne
was unacquainted with fear. And he
was most interested in the success Of
the northsiders in the impending trou-
BILE. While the fishermen's employ
ment and wages were at stake, old Sea-
dogs property was involved. He loved
this as he did his life and took COM
mand Of the armed fishermen with the
frmness Of an experienced admiral who
meant to win the battle at any sacrifice.
Seventy-five men had been gathered
in the rush and others. were expected
to follow under the leadership of one
OF Seadog's sons who had been given
another commission to perform. He
had been instructed to dispatch cou,-
Ter to the county seat to notify the
sheriff. This official would communi-
cate with the governor, who in turn
would orde, out the state militia.
The trouble had been under discus
sion for years. 1t had entered politics
and was the means Of arousing the ami
mostly of two states. The officers on
the south side Of the river stood by
their fishermen, and those on the north
side were equally as loyal. 1t was an
Interstate affair and needed but the
firing OF gun to awaken large citi-
zenship and plunge the two states into
most serious complications.
Many Of the fishermen on both sides
are ignorant foreigners, desperate char.
acters by reason OF their calling and
the hardships OF fisherman's life, and
when once aroused to arms would lose
their reason. Bloodshed and riot were
now expected in their reddest form.
Women and children looked out
across the black Gay with anxious eyes
and abated breath. Their fathers and
brothers and cons were stealing along
the dark line to death or victory. They
watched for the flash and listened for
the report of the guns that meant death
to some of their number, for they could
not expect otherwise than that some of
their loved ones must go.
There was none more sad and more
anxious than SaDkala. She constantly
left the bedside Of the sleeping Ring
void and gazed out into the gloom
which still overshadowed the bay.
Their only friend was there but she
would not recall him if she could.
The true woman adheres more closely
to principle than men, and while the
death of loved one rends their hearts
to the greatest depths, they would make
the sacrifice rather than yield to OPP
preston or wrong.
The villagers were not kept long in
suspense. The first red flare of morn
ing soon arose in the east. 1t shot out
its dim rays like retreating ghosts after
. midnight prowl. One by one these
fitted across the waters and disappear
ed on the bosom of the ocean. Bright
er rays followed that dispersed the
shadows, and discovered the contendine
fishermen TO eachother.
That was all that was necessary.
The long pent up venom N both fac
tions was released. The shaft Of death
was hurled. Lead and bali sent upon
their terrible mission.
A fusilade doomed out from the head
o. the island. 1t was answered in re-
tuln farther to the north. Then des-
ultory firing was kept up along the line
of fish traps.
The rising sun drove back the smoke
and the fishermen on either side lay
doggedly on their oars, awaiting Sec
ond attack by the enemy.

Brother Karl of the Benedictine or
der. who was recently buried at Pra-
que, was of noble blood and had a re-
markable career. AS Prince Edward
Schoenberg he was handsome, dash
ing and of rare promise. But at 35 a
change came over his spirit and one
day he rode straight to the abbey from
the parade ground, and, in full uni
form, asked the prior for admission.
The head of the order at first refused,
but the prince broke his sword, threw
away his epaulets and decorations and
begged for a monks habit. He after
ward went to Rome, studied theology
and was ordained.

Peruna is known from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. Letters of congratula-
ton and communication testifying to
the merits Of Peruna as catarrh rem
edy are pouring in from every state in
the Union.
DIR. Hartman Is receiving hundreds
OF such letters daily. All classes write
these letters, from the highest to the
lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor ar
tisan, the clerk, the editor, the states
man, the preacher--all agree that Pc
runa lie the catarrh remedy of the age.
The stage and rostrum, recognizing
catarrh as their greatest enemy. are es-
pecially enthusiastic in their praise
and testimony.
ANY man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh.
Catairh ia well nigh universal; almost
omnipresent.
Peruna is the only absolute safeguard
known. A cold is the beginning of ca
tarrh. To prevent colds, to cure colds,
is to cheat catarrh of its victims.
Peruna not only cures catarrh, but
prevents 1t. Every household should
be supplied with this great remedy for
coughs. colds and so forth.
The ex-governor of Oregon is an ard
emit admirer of Peruna. He keeps ii

The readers of this paper will
be pleased to learn that there is
at least one dreaded disease that
science has been able to cure in
all its stages, and that is catarrh.
Hali's Catarrh Cure is the only
positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh cure
being a constitutional disease,
requires a constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is
taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby
destroying the foundation of the
disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature
in doing its work. The proprie-
tors have so much faith in its
curative powers that they offer
one hundred dollars for any case
that it fails to cure. Send for
