1t Always Pays.

The owner of an Iowa hotel
who had permitted his business
to "run to seed" by not keeping
his house in proper repair had to
close. Then the building was. an
elephant on his hands. He
decided to renovate, improve

for travellers and guests. While
the work was going OH he pub
lished a card in the local papers
announcing the fact that the
house would be re-opened. The
day came, and before nightevery

No Poison In Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy.

Remedy.
From Napier New Zealand, Herald:
Two years ago the Pharmacy Board
of New South Wales, Australia, had
an analysis made of all the cough
medicines that were sold in that mar
ket- Out of the entire list they found
only one that they declared was en-
tirely free from poisons. This except
ion was Uhamberlain's Cough Rene
ed. made by the Chamberlain Medi-
cine Company Des Moines, Iowa, U.
s. A. The absence of all narcotics
makes this reedy the safest and best
that can be had and it is with feel
ing of security that any mothe can
give it to her little ones. Chamber
laih's Cough Remedy is especially re-
commendee by it's makers for coughs,
colds, Group and whooping cough.
This remedy is for sale by all drug
gist.

OBITUARY.

Died in Fitzgerald, at 1920 a.
M, Oct. 10, 1905. Mr.. Frederick
A. Spiller, of Pittsburg, Pa.
Mr.. Spiller was an employee
of the Pennsylvania r. r. for
twenty-five years. About three
years ago bis health failed and he
was given a nine months leave of
absence by the railroad officials
in hopes that he would recover
his health. DR.. Tibbott advised
him to come to Fitzgerald and
try this climate. After being
here five months he seemed much
better in many ways, but his
physicians advised him to remain
here, as by so doing he would
prolong his life. but would never
be able to take up his work as
agent of the Penn. r. r. Co
again. Upon this decision his
wife and daughter came South
and took up housekeeping on the
Grouse place on Roanoke Drive.
While Mr.. Spiller was never real
well, he was able to be about
most of the time and took great
pleasure in his garden work, and
it is likely that he overdid him
self in this work, as he was a
sufferer from double hernia and
had been warned not to do any
hard work. This, and the TAX
ing of slight cold in September,
soon developed conditions which
in his weak state he was unable
to overcome, and after four weeks
of suffering he passed away as
stated. The funeral service was
held at the home Wednesday
evening, and the remains taken
to VIM. McCormick's undertake
ing rooms to await the arrival of
a son from Pittsburg, who reach
ed here Friday morning, when
the sorrowing family and friends
proceeded to Evergreen ceme-
terv where the remains were
inferred for the present.
Mrs. Spil1er and daughter will
remain in Fitzgerald for the
winter at least.

Then l give it-hide and hoofs, tail
and temper-to Nigel Loring, and may
it be as sweet and as gentle to him as
he hath been to the Abbot of Waverleyl
The sacrist spoke aloud amid the litter
ING of the monks, for the man concerned
was out of earshot. At the first words
which had shown him the turn which
affairs had taken he had run swiftly to the
spot where he had left his pony From
its mouth he removed the. bit and the
stout bride which held it. Then leaving
the creature to nibble the grass by the
wavside he sped back whence he came
Il take your gift, monk, said he,
though l know we'll why it is that YOU
give it. Yet l thank YOU, for there are
two things upon earth for which have
ever vearned, and which my thin purse
could never buy. The one is a noble
horse. such a horse as my fathers son
should have betwixt his thighs, and here
is the one of all others which l would
have chosen. since some small deed is
to be done in the winning of him, and
some honorable advancement to be
gained. How is the horse Called?

Nigel, and now / see that this is indeed
a horse which l would journey far to
meet. l am your man, Pommers, and
you are my horse, and this night you
shall own it or | will never need horse
again. My spirit against thine, and God
hold thy spirit high, Pommers, so that
the greater be the adventure, and the
more hope of honor gained!"

It absurd to talk of cleaning the teeth

not clean and the mouth is not sweet,
Unless the bacteria. which multiply

happy since. There is not a hind in my
employ who will enter his stall. Ill
fare the dav that ever | took the beast
from the Castle stud at Guildford, where
they could do nothing with it and no
rider could be found bold enough to mount
it! When the sacrist here took it for
fiftv-shilling debt he made his own bar
Gain and must abide by it. He comes
no more to the Crooksbury farm"
And he stays no more here, ~ said the
Abbot. Brother sacrist, you have
raised the Devil, and it is for you to lay
it again
That l will most readily" cried the
sacrist. THE pittance-master can stop
the fifty shi11ings from my very own
weekly dole, and so the Abbey be none
the poorer In the meantime here IS
Wat with his arba1ist and bolt in his
girdle. Let him drive it to the head
through this cursed creature, for his
hide and his hoofs are of more value
than his wicked self.
A hard brown old woodman who had
been shooting vernin in the Abbey
groves stepped forward with grin OF
pleasure. After a lifetime Of stoats and
foxes, this was indeed a noble quarry
which was to fall before him. Fitting
a bolt on the nut of his taut crossbow,
he had raised it to his shoulder and
1eveled it at the fierce, proud, dlsheveled
head which tossed In savage freedom at
the other side of the wall. His finger
was crooked on the spring, when blow
from a whip struck the bow upward and
the bolt flew harmless over the Abbey
orchard, while the woodman shrank
abashed from Nigel LOring's angry eyes
Keep your bolts for your weaselS-
said he Would you take life from
creature whose only fault is that Its
spirit is so high that it has met none
vet who dare control it You would
slav such a horse as king might be proud
to mount, and all because a country
franklin, or a monk, or a monks varlet,
has not the wit nor the hands to master
him?"
The sacrist turned swiftly on the
Squire. The Abbey owes you an offer
ing for this days work, however rude
your words may be" said he. If you
think so much of the horse, you may
desire to own it. If l am to pay for it,
then with the holy Abbot's permission
it is in my gift and l bestow it freely upon
you"
The Abbot plucked at his subordinate's
sleeve. "Bethinb you, brother sacrist, "
he whispered, shall we not have this
mans blood upon our heads"
Ills pride is as stubborn as the
horses, holy father, the sacrist answered,
his gaunt face breaking into malicious
smile. Man or beast one will break

TAKEN HOME TO Die
WITH BROKEN NECK
James Booth Removed to Mauch
Chunk From Atlantic City.
WAS INJURED WHILE BATHING

Philadelphia. Sept. 7. His neck
broken between the fifth and and sixth
vertcbrae. James Booth. of Mauch
Chunk. was rushed To that city at
the rate oil mile minute that he
may reach there in time To die In his
home surroundings. Every possible
precaution was taken by physicians
and railroad officials that his life
might be prolonged. and everything
that science could suggest was done
20 allay his pain and eliminate sud
den jars.
Booth broke his neck on August "a
by diving into shallow water on the
beach at Atlantic City. He was given
the best of medical attention there
The physicians. however. saw that he
was beyond the reach of their skill
As gently as possible the news was
broken to him. Then he asked that II
die he must that he be transferred &c
his home to breathe his last. His re
quest was so pathetic that II touched
physicians and railroad officials alike
and plans were made to carry out his
request
Trussed upon stretcher. he was
placed aboard a Reading train in At
lantic City. and at the rate OF mile
q minute was taken to Camden. He
lay on a special water bag. The train
reeled Off mile after mile. swaying as
curves were met and passed. The
water mattress. however. yielded &c
the slightest movement. and in conse
auence the trip proved Of only slight
danger to Booth. At Camden a Jeffer
son hospital ambulance was in walt
ing and transferred the patient TO the
Reading Terminal. where Booth was
placed aboard baggage car on q
train bound for Mauch Chunk.
A physician and nurse from the
Medico- Chirurgical hospital came ur
with Booth from Atlantic City. They
sat by his side and kept close watch
The water bag was unusually large
II contained about ton OF water, as
Il was essential that the weight OF
the mans body be subjected TO not
even the slightest jar.
EFF there was one chance in 500 thai
he would survive an operation ! would
perform IT, DIR. Da Costa is reported
to have said after carefully examining
Booth with X-rays. To make assurance
doubly sure. New York surgeon con.
suited with DR.. Da Costa, and he un
hesitatingly endorsed the Philadelphia
SURGEONS OpiniOn that an operation
would be worse than useless.
Young Booths father. William
three brothers and four sisters. one OF
whom, Catherine. made the trip from
