When a child l had a very severe at
tack of Diphtheria, which am near prov
ing fatal. Uponrecoverythe glands Of the
neck were very much enlarged, and after
the free use Of iodine, the right one was
reduced to its normal size, but the left
one continued to grow-very slowly at
first, until it was about the size of a goose
egg, which began to press ou the wind
pipe, causing difficult breathing, and be-
came very painful. An i~ncision was made
and a large quantity of pus discharged.
The gland was removed, or as much as
could with safety be taken out. For ten
years I wore alittle piece of cloth about an
inch long in my neck to keep the place
open. During this time I had to have it
cut open by the doctor every time I took
cold or the opening clogged. In the Spring
or early Summer of 1884 I was persuaded
by my wife to use S. S. S., which l did,
strictly in accordance with directions. I
took twenty-six large bottles, and was en-
tirely cured, for l have not suffered since
that time. B. S.RAGLAND.

Strange Freak Of Lightning.

A remarkable story comes from
Water Valley concerning a strange
freak of a bolt Of lightning, which
struck the home Of Charles Strigger,
q negro, living in the suburbs OF the
town. Three pairs Of shoes had been
put in the front OF the open fireplace
Of the cabin when the little pickanin-
nies Of the family retired for the
night. A holt OF lightning passed
down the chimney and through the
door. The house did not take fire,
nor where any OF the inmates injured,
but when they recovered from the
shock it was found that only one of
the six shoes were remaining, The
others hed been burned 10 ashes.

SENATOR MARCUS A. HANNA DEAD.

In the death of Senator Marcus A.
Hanna, OF Ohio, last Monday, one of
the most striking, most picturesque
characters Of America was removed
from public life. While he represent
ed and embodied political princi-
pies to which the SENTINEL is oppos-
ed, yet even his political enemies
must feel an admiration for the man.
With Titan strides he forged himself
forward from an ordinary business
man to place of national promin-
ence. His father was a very success
full business man before him; after re-
ceiving a collegiate education, he him.
self embarked i'm a commercial career
in which he was highly successful
financially.
In 1897 he was appointed United
States Senator from Ohio to succeed
the Hon. John Sherman, who had re-
sig ned to enter President Mckinley s
cabinet. He was largely Instrument
al in securing both nominations and
elections of Mckinley, and was recog-
nized as the only man in the Repub-
lican party today who could hope tc
secure the nomination over President
Roosevelt in 1904. He made one OF
the ablest leaders the Republican,
party has ever had. He was distinct
ly and impressively an American-nc
one ever accused him Of allowing any
man to take the lead without q
struggle.
Without doubt, his death will be
universally regretted.

We notice in different dispatches
from Washington that members of the
House are ''cussin' Walt Browlow on
account Of his bill appropriating
20,00O,0 900 for good roads. While we
dub Brownlow as being the very pro-
totype of Republican radicalism, yet
this measure receives our commenda-
tion, even if it did spring from him.
Bad roads are the curse of any coun-
try, the bane of development. Good
roads are important factors in the up
building and maintaing of industries.
We believe Brownlow's bill is a step
in the right direction. We will well
come the day when the government
will take charge OF, and insist upon
a system of good public roads through
out the whole country. Take charge
just as it does in the case of rivers
and harbors. This seems to be the
only solution OF the problem. Sick

tits evident to every thinking man
that the applied philosophy OF the
times is borrowed from the polemics
Of Iago, whose creed is familiar to all

no hope OF refining the wealth-get-

A VITAL QUESTION
For he Mississippi ! Legislature
CoNaidef.

The SENTINEL Is reliably informed
that the contract for the railroad
from Grenada to Pensacola, Florida,
has been passed upon, and would have
been signed but for the fact that
hostile railroad legislation is pending
in the Mississippi Legislature. This
road is to run from Grenada to Meri-
dian, and thence to Pensacola. The
Representatives Of the counties of
Grenada. Webster, Choctaw, Winston,
Leake, Scott, Newton, Neshoba and
other counties will lily serve their
people by allowing unreasonable or
hostile bills to pass. We understand
work will begin on both ends OF the
road, and it will be in operation soon,
unless vicious legislation prevents it.
The people living along this proposed
line, as we'll as the State at large, are
vitality interested in the building of
this and other railroads. We all ad-
NIT that railroads are wonderful de-
velopers of a county, and have done
more to open up Mississippi to the
outside world, than almost all other
factors combined. But for the rail-
roads much Of our State that is pour
ing it's wealth into the laps OF our
people, would to-day be in virgin
orests. We appeal to the Legislat ure
to be broad and statesmen-like, not
only to railroads, but to all other
business enterprises. The people want
no backward steps. Onward aud up
ward should be the mOtO.

We observe in the last issue of the
Greenwood Commonwealth that May
or w. A. Vardaman is a candidate
for reelection. Mr.. Vardamau has
unquestionably made one OF the best
Mayors in the State Of Mississippi. In
fact he has gained statewide repu-
tation for his efficiency in Office. He
has a great extent freed his little
city from vice and vagrancy, and
turned into Greenwood's treasury
little over five thousands dollars. Such
a record deserves unanimous endor-
sement by the people of Greenwood by
his rc-elcction-without opposition.
Other mayors in other towns could
possibly make themselves more popu-
lar, and their towns less free from
vice by following Mr.. Vardaman's
example. In one year you might say,
$4,000 was turned into the city treas
ury, which Of itself shows what man.
ner Of mayor and marshal the little
city Of Greenwood has. This is from
five to ten times as much as the rec
ord of most any other town Of any
thing Of like size can show.

WHAT WOMEN
WANT TO KNOW
REMOVING sUPERFLuoUs tAIR.-car
you tell me OF anything harmless which
will permanently remove superfIuous
hair from the face2-Loulse.

You failed to tell me whether the hair
on your face which you wish to remove Is
coarse and isolated or a fine hairy growth.
However, I give methods for the removal
of both. There is but one permanent
remedy and that is electrolysis. The
electric needle is injected near the hair
and destroys the follicle thus preventing
further growth. When the hairs are fine
and very close together, a good caustic
or depilatory in the form Of either paste
or liquid Is advised. The first application
will rarely kill all the hairs, but a second
or third will remove them. You will how
ever. be obliged to repeat the operation
should a new growth appear You may
purchase depilatory at any first class
drug store and will find full directions for
its use with it. II you prefer you may
prepare a paste yourself Of one part Of
quicklime and two parts OF sulpurate of
calcium. Reduce the ingredients 10 a
powder, mix, bottle and keep tightly
corked. would advise that you have a,
druggist put this UP for you. When re-
quired for use mix q small quantity with
enough water to make q thin paste
Spread in thin coating over the hairy
skin and allow It to remain on until the
skin begins to smart. then wash of inn
sDlediately with warm water and soap. #
left on too long 1t will blister the skin.
To allay any irritation battle the sensi-
tive skin with witch hazel or use a good
cold cream.
