Catarrh Cannot. Be Cured,

with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as
they cannot reach the seat of the di-
sease, and in order TO cure it you must
take internal remedies. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, and acts
directly on the blood and mucous sur
faces. Halle Catarrh Cure is not
quack medicine. It was prescribed by
ne of the best physicians in this coun-
try for wears and is regular prescrIp-
ton. It is composed of the best tonics
known, combined with the best blood
purifiers, acting directly on the mucous
surfaces. The perfect combination of
the two ingredients is what produces
such wonderful results in curing Ca
tarrh. Send for testimonials free.

BUSY CHRISTMAS IN AMERlcus
But Season One of Quiet Pleasure
For Many.

AmeriCus has had buoy but never
theless en- oyable ante. Christmas week,
and here as elsewhere the approach of
the holiday season seems to humanize
the business world. There is senti~
ment in every store; there is thought
of absent friends and home people in
discussions over trif 80 on the counters;
there is bustling that forecasts hap
piness about the prosaic old postoffice
and the harsh commercial aspect of the
express and freight depots. There is
much buying of narrow red ribbons
and holly stickers, reams of white it's
cue paper for Christmas bundles. There
is thouRht-thought for others every-
where, and the whole world of bust
ness is under its spell.

 The cattle are led from the pens into uncovered stalls, half dozen at 8 time. When the door is closed the "knocker,'' who is placed behind and above them raises a long steel sledge and gives each one of them a cyclo- pean stroke on, the skull. One stroke generally is sufficient. Six times the hammer descends thus with muffied sound so light as scarcely to be heard. Not a moan is heard from the stall The "knocker" passes to the next apartment, and by tilting floor the first stall is opened, the floor Is in clined, and I saw the six cattle slide down at my feet, some of them still quivering in the last throes of life.
 A great horror and a pity seizes one atat the view of these great animals thus stricken down. By what associa- ton of ideas does the death of beasts affect us thus. Is it not that the spec tacle of death is a menace to our life? With lttle oreimagination would we not suffer even to view the death of the flowers? All that is necessary is to think of the joy of their first blos- soms and of the emotion of their fra grant blooms under the first caresses of the sun.
 As for myself, before those animals lying there, their glassy eyes enlarged by death, their muzzles fringed iwth rubies, I could not refrain from pic- , turing them young and free and bounding over the vast prairies of Ar kansas and Kentucky, full of exuber- ant vitality.
 It was necessary, however, for me to see the work of slaughter to the end. A man attached chain to the hind feet of each carcass, and hung it to an iron bar,' the torrent of blood gushing meanwhile from the animals throat.

 Jessie wiped her eyes and tore the envelope open to read: If you are out of pain and not out of temper, will re- turn tomorrow. Wire me at Baldwin House.-Eldon Graham"
 For the space of half an hour the house of Graham came near being a house divided against itself, but love for her husband and sense of humor won the day. At the Baldwin House, Eldon received 8 wire, collect. It read: "Do," In half an hour came another.-"Not" A little later Eldon Graham's face paled as he read, "Res turn" Do not return! Was Jessie to ruin both their lives on account of what was intended merely as a harm less spur to her courage? All argu- ment had failed to induce her to have that tooth extracted, and the idea of the ''follow-up ad'' coming to him suddently, he told his stenographer to get them up and mail one each morn- ing afternoon. He had wanted that tooth out before his return from Sey- ton, and had hoped to be met by a hap py wife, free from the cause of three weeks suffering. And this was the unhappy result!
 MT. Graham's painful thoughts were receiving his undivided attention when he was interrupted by the arrival of an- ather message. It read: Later than tomorrow?
