Constipation.
FIRST FIFTY CENT BOTTLE FREE.

A constipated man is an easy vic
tim for typhoid and malarial fevers.
One whose bowels are open and
free will not likely take either. The
typhoid germs are harmless until
they get into the aimentary canal.
Then they do their dirt if allowed
to remain. 1t wouldn't do to take
physic, for that would irritate the
intestines and make them all the
more fertile for the attack of the
disease germs.
But you must keep the bowels
open, and nothing will do it like
Mull's Grape Tonic 1t is tonic
which heals the irritation, makes it
almost impossible for the germs to
get in their deadly work and so
stimulates the organs of the diges.

voluntarily perform their functions.

Mr.. Pickett was the proprietor OF

newspaper men of the. South. He
was 46 years of age, having been
born in Memphis. He had been in
bad health for several years, and
for the past few months had been
able to give little personal atten-
ton to his business Two weeks
ago he was taken to Cincinnati,
where it was hoped that the treat
ment of eminent specialists would
prove beneficial His malady was
rheumatic, complicated with affec-
tion of the heart.
He leaves large family and a
comfortable estate in a satisfactory
condition.

Clifford v. Jones,
Quality Drug Store.

McAlster were developing into
womanhood, received an invitation
to social gathering at Jim Mack's,
as ! had numbers of times previous
to this, and ] knew what was in
store, because they never allowed
anything to be done by halves, and
my mind often drifts back among
the good people of the Houser Val
ley neighborhood, where used to
be acquainted with every hog path
and public road At that time
was not acquainted with John Bar
leycorn or Gipsy, but am proud to
say can number them as two of
my best friends. notice that John
and Gipsy cross-fire at each other
once in while, and then again
John will make it handy when in
Union City to take dinner with
Gipsy and for week or two after
they are as modest as an old shoe
or Mary's little lamb. Gipsy got
the scholarship and John pouted
over that for while, and can see
from the manner in which Gipsy
writes sometimes that she could
raise knot on Johns head il she
was in reach. Anyway it is quite
pair to draw too.

the arms of the cross were extended
in benediction over the shimmering
sea. Ny soul thrilled with delight
at the glorious sight. But it was
not so much the beautiful aStronom-
ical phenomenon that impressed
me as its inspiring suggestion !
remember, that those stars OF both
the northern and southerU skies
were fed by the fires of the same
sun, and all the silver beams they
so proiusely scatter d were the re-
hections of the same shining face.
And so | thought, wherever a child
of God may dwell, in whateverorbit
he may move as light of the world,
whether he be a north star or
southern cross, his only power to
shine came from the one Son of
righteousness.
LESSON OF THE VISION.
"And then my heart turned to
our two great Methodisms IN the
United States-twIn stars OF the
first magnitude and the fervent
prayer went up to heaven that their
minds might be daily filled from
the same exhaustless fountain of
light, and they might walk together
to the same inspired music,
Forever singing as they shine,
The hand that made us is divine.
"There is every potent reason
why as American Methodists we
should get into closer federation
and fellowship Let minor differ
ences be forgotten in a divine sense
OF our great spiritual and national
mission. Eschewing purile person
,alities, forgetting the passions of
Conflict, and aspiring after larger
achievements in the name of our
Lord, / would lock shields with
every brave son of Wesley and with
the chivalric spirit of our noble
past, keep perpetual vigils over the
sacred inheritanceNof our fathers.
So weighty are our responsibilities,
so high our true missiong so great
the achievement before us, that we
need to get into closer, tenderer,
personal and ecclesiastical syn1pa-
thy. The same flag floats over us
and under its silken folds we should
gather for battle against a common
enemy"
