THE HUMAN NOSE.
Facts and Comm t. About This Most
Characteristic Feature.

Facts and Com I'M entS "A DOut THIS MOST
Characteristic Feature.
A nose which In any way suggests
our ape-like ancestors, whether snub,
hattened or abnormally small, is
deemed ugly. Generally speaking the
long nose belongs to the people Of Eu-
rope, whereas the negroes and Mongo
lians have short noses. With the Eski-
mo the nose Is said to be In many cases
so fat that ruler might be placed so
as to rest upon both cheeks without
touching it. In the man the muscles Of
the nose have little fexibility except
about the nostrils, which visibly dilate
and contract under the influence Of
passion.
Mantegazza has remarked that among
civilized people the nose Is nearly al
ways DETECTED toward the right, which
he attributes to the custom Of wiptng
the nose with the right hand. Leonardo
da Vinci discovered that there were
over ten different varieties Of nose
seen In profile and eleven when looked
at In front Charles Blanc considered
the nose the most characteristic fea-
ture Of the face and recommended Ia
dies to regulate the style Of their dress
with reference to its shape, and Lava
ter went so far as to assert that a
beautiful nose was worth more than
kingdom that it is never associated
with an ugly yface.-InternatiOnal Quar-

Cures Kidney and BIad-
der Diseases in Evorv
Form Many People
Have Kidney Trouble
and DO Not Know 1t.
HOW TO FIND OUT.

1t is the function of the kidneys to filter
and purify the blood which is constantly
passing through them.
When the kidneys are out of order the
other organs are affected Immediately
and you may have symptoms of heart
trouble, stomach and liver trouble, and
other ailments, which are all owing to the
kidneys being weak and out of order.
If you are sick F0ley's Kidney
Cure will strengthen and build up the
worn out tissues of the kidneys so they
will act properly and the symptoms of
weakness, heart, stomach and liver
trouble will disappear and you will be
restored to perfect health.
How TO Tell II You Have Kidney Trouble.
You can easily determine if your kid.
neys are out of order by setting aside for
"a hours a bottle of the urine passed
upon arising. If upon examination it is
cloudy or milky or has a brick-dust sed
ime Mt or small particles float about in it,
your kidneys are diseased and F0loy's
Kidney Cur0 should be taken at once.
Foley's Kidney Cure is pleasant to
take and acts directly upon the parts
affected and you begin to feel better
at once.
1t corrects slight disorders in few
days and it has cured many obstinate
cases after other treatment had failed.
Doctors Said He Would Not Live.
Peter Frey, of Woodruff, Pa, writes:
AFTER doctoring for two years with the
best physicians in Waynesburg, and still
getting worse, the doctors advised me if
had any business to attend to had bet
ter attend to it at once, as l could not
possibly live another month, as there was
no cure for me. Foley's Kidney Cure
was recommended to me by friend, and
l Immediately sent my son to the store
for it and after taking three bottles be-
gan to get better and continued to i'm
prove until l was entirely well.'

CLINTON COLLEGE
NOT TO BE MOVED.
Four Other Towns Wanted
the College.
CLINTON JUBILANT.
Board of Trustees Decide to Keep the
Presbyterian College at CIinton---
The Other Bids.

COLUMBIA, Sept. 29th. The trustees
of the Presbyterian College of South
Carolina have been in session here
since last night and they have decided
to let the College remain where it is,
in Clinton. 1t seemed like the case of
the historic King who marched his men
up the hill and marched them down
again, but the meeting has aroused
great interest in the institution, and it
is hoped that the discussion of it's pos
sible removal will do it some real good.
The offer of the citizens of Clinton hav-
ing been accepted, the College will re-
main where it is with the Clinton offer
added to it:
The following were the bids offered
for the College,
Bennettsville: $52, ,44O; site and dona-
tion of Mrs. Beckwith, $4,000; total
$64.44O
Chester: Cash $35, 700; site $4,000;
total $4,000
Clinton: Cash 500, 900; donation from
Clinton College association, 500, 600;
total $1,000.
Sumter (second bid, donation, $685.
600; site $40, 900; total, $35, 600.
Yorkville: Cash SIT, 900; site $22, 900;
water and lights, 5000; total $42, 600.
REJOICING AT CLINTON.
CLINTON, Sept. 10Th. Clinton has
been in a state of tension all day anx-
iously expecting news from Columbia as
to the location of the Presbyterian Col
lege. About $50 the first favorable
news came, that Clinton would keep
the College.
The bells were rung and crowd of
citizens and students assembled at the
public square to give expression to
their feelings of joy. Cheers and cow
bells and improvised instruments of
racket made the air hideous.
Ladies and pretty girls and children
all mingled with the good-humored
throng and every one was in the high
est spirits.
The train from Columbia rolled up
about $40, bringing back few of
Clinton's delegates. A rousing cheer
greeted them, and the Rev. Mr.. Par.
rott, who has been one of the chief adj
vocates for the retention of the Col
lege made few enthusiastic remarks
and the crowd dispersed. Everybody in
Clinton is delighted, not only the Pres
byterian element, but members of all
Churches and all classes of citizens.
Clinton people feel sure that if the
other towns who have so gallantly
striven for the College had been repre-
sented here they, too, would rejoice
that the College remains in the town of
its birth and its growth to manhood's
strength.
