POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

Cheap rings always look particularly
cheap on toll worn hands.
An old quarrel is like an old wound
liable to break out at any time.
There is this difference: Lovers make
I'D a quarrel because they enjoy 1t and
married people because they have to.
If you are satisfied with yourself
Won are conceited and if you are not
satisfied you are ungrateful. What is
a man to be?
If IS strange how mans duty ap-
nears so plain to you and how he looks
right at it. and has such poor eyes1ght
he can't see it.
How well dressed, neat people are
admired. Do you pay as much atten-
tion to your personal appearance as
Won should? Care in this particular

THE TOWER OF BABEL.
History Leaves No Data by Which to
Estimate Its Height.

Estimate Its Height.
The exact date of the building Of
"Nimrod's Folly" as the Chaldeans
say in abiding to the Scriptural tower
Of Babel fthe Armenians speak of it as
the Tower Of the Confusion of Tongues).
or the height to which it penetrated
the rarefied atmosphere Of the oriental
plains will perhaps never be known.
The date Of the laying Of the founda-
ton of the famous structure is usually
set at 2,247 years before Christ, or in
the year Of the flood, 1O1.
The expression Of the sacred historian
that its top was to reach unto heav-
en- is now generally set down as q
strong Hebrew phrase denoting very
lofty tower, but not necessarily mean
ing one that would reach to the abiding
place Of the Lord and his hosts. Proof
that this Is probable may be found in
several places In holy writ. The walls
of the cities of Canaan are described
by Moses In similar phraseology. The
spies sent out by him returned and re-
ported that the cities Of that country
were great and were walled up to
heaven" See Deuteronomy l, %; tx, 1.
There Is a Jewish legend in the Tai
mud which tells us that God did not
put a stop to the building of the tow
err until after it had reached height
of 10000 fathoms, which is equal to
nearly twelve English miles.
The sacred historians have not IN
single instance left data upon which
we can base a calculation Of it's exact
height and general dimensions, and 1t
is because Of this omission that the
imaginative orientals and other an
cient writer's have given such fabulous
and extravagant traditions concerning
it. Even st. Jerome alleges from the
testimony Of eyewitnesses who claim
to have seen and examined the ruins
Of the skyscraping shaft that in his
day Cborn 345 A. d. it was over four
miles high. While considering these
untenable notions it may not be out OF
Mace to mention that other fanciful
writers make it's height range all the
wav from single furlong to 5000
miles. in height. See Lawson's BlDle
Cyclopedia, volume 1. page 259.

HUMANITY
VS., THE LAW
SAILOR Of CHILEAN SHIP OTHEL-
10 TOO SICK TO 90 TO SEA AND
TOO POOR no GET ASHORE.

The 4. s. immigration laws on one
side and humanity on the other are
clashing IN the case Of a sailor named
Anton Milazzo on the Chillian ship
Othello. The man Is very ill with
rupture. IN fact he Is unable to pro-
coed 10 sea and # would be dangerous
for him to attempt 10 do 80. DR.. RAJ
mus Of the marine hospital service has
examined the man and expressed such
an opinion. The physician stated that
It would be necessary for the sick man
10 undergo an operation which would
require a. least 30 days IN the hospital.
The ships officers want TO send the
man ashore but apparently the United
states laws forbid such q thing. The
ship has 10 go 10 sen soon 50 naturally
the officers are anxious to get the man
ashore where he Win given attention.
II Is thought that some person inter
estcd in the case VIII secure the SER
Vices Of AN attorney to try and bring
the matter into the courts IN some way
and ascertain whether the laws can
not be set aside IN order TO allow the
man 10 enter. The immigration laws
are strict however on the subject hold
Ing that II is possible that being a
foreigner from foreign ship he might
become public charge.

REDDOCH GETS A YEAR.

Hon Claude Kitchin has returned
from trip to st. Louis, where he
went to testify in the case against w.
l.. Reddoch charged with false accusa-
ton against him.
Reddoch confessed and was sentenc-
ed to serve one year IN the Missouri
State penitentiary and pay fine OF
one hundred dollars.
Mr.. Kltchln says that he had not
been to St. Louis before, and was great
ly interested in that country,
lie says that the lands there
are very rich, and if it is narrowed
down to the fertility OF the soil the
West offers greater inducements to
those seeking homes in agricultural
regions, but the price of the lands
there are against the man of limited
means. Here In the South one can
buy four or five acres of land for what
he has to pay for one acre there.
The South, therefore, is better place
Tor the man with limited means.

ANOTHER TRAGEDY IN RAJ
EIGH.

Last Saturday at 10 O'Clock there
was another tragedy in Raleigh. Pc
llceman Rogers shot United States
Deputy Marshal John Dockery on
stairway leading into the Tucker build
ing.
So far as can be gathered Rogers was
so outraged at the conviction that
Dockery had ruined his home by Inn
proper associations with his (Rog' r>')
daughter that he fet 1mpelled by the
instincts and manhood OF father to
Law vengeance on him who had done a
great sin against ar individual, against
a home and against society.
Claude NJ. Bernard, exUnlted States
District Attorney, who was beaten and
sent out of Greenvi.le few years ago
for a similar offsnse, was hand In hand
with Dcckery in the wicked dolngs
that led to the awful tragedy.

THE "LAZY" MICROBE.

A learned Professor claims to have
discovered that "Laziness" is caused
by germ. If the Eminent Doctor ls
right, Rydale's Liver Tablets can right
ly be termed Microbe Killers, because
they remove that tired, lazy, sluggish
feeling that has usually been attribut
ed to torpid liver or constipated
bowels. Rydale's Liver Tablets are
guaranteed to cure constipation and all
liver disorders. They are small COM
pressed chocolate coated tablets, easy
