No More TwO-MOnths Divorces in
Judge Pendleton's Court.
Judge Pendleton of the Fulton
county superior court has come down
good and hard on the effort of the Pc
titioners to use his court for a get-a-
divorce-quick mill of justice by issu-
ing an order that hereafter two terms
of court must elapse between the first
and second degrees for divorce may
be granted.
Since Jan. l, when the six-term-a-
year court was instituted in the coun-
ty to relieve the congested docket, he
has done little else but try divorce
suits. Under this calender it has been
possible to get divorce in sixty days,
but with the new order it will take at
least six months and maybe much
longer
The new order becomes effective at
once.

Edward Page Gastona, of Chicago,
testified before the select committee OF

America sent to Great Britain was the
American cigarette.
"It is worse" he said, than the

Gastona also warned the British
legislature against attempts at bril-
berry on the part of the American to-
bacco trust in order to balk the un,,

Salt and Civilization.

Salt has had much influence in shap-
ing the civilization and exploration of
the world. 1t is believed by many that
the Oldest trade routes were created
for the salt traffic. This was certain
ly the case with the caravan routes in
Libya and the Sahara, while the mines
of North India were the center of a
large trade before the time of Alex
ander Salt, too, has played a consid-
cradle part in the distribution of man.
He was forced to migrate to places
where 1t could be obtained. This
brought him to the seashore, where he
gained his ideas of maritime COM
merce. Lastly, the preservative eff
fects of salt on flesh food made long
oceanic voyages possible and thus
opened UP the world to commerce and
civilization.

Hard and Fast Rule Impossible.

It is surprising how many people
there are in this world who want to
increase the discomforts of life. There
is always bobbing up some professor
or propagandist who informs us that
everything we have ever done is
wrong and that the only road to physi-
cal salvation is to follow his own
schedule. And now comes a man from
Chicago where they know more
things which aren't so than in any
city in the world-and tells us that we
must not eat soup, pie, pancakes. pud-
dings and cold meats, except ham, and
apparently make our principal diet
spinach. asparagus. lettuce and on
ions. Probably most persons eat more
than is good for them and it is GER
tain that, generally speaking, food is
not well cooked. But to lay down a
law for the human race is absurd

The Humminq Bird.

Scientifically humming birds are
"trochilidae." and those who make a
special study of them are ''trochi>.
diste"-although the birds are not
identical with the old Greek trochi
lus" or runner" bird, which, accord
ing to Herodotus, entered the laws OF
the sleeping crocodile and obliged its
big friend by picking leeches from his
throat. The Spanish name for the
humming bird is tominejo'-meaning
a third of dram, and referring. of
course to the birds minuteness. But
the prettiest names are those such as
the French 'froufrou,' which refer
TO the humming noise sometimes pro
duced by the almost incredibly rapid
vibration of the wings. "Purring with
her wings" is the expression OF
Thomas Morton Q632), the first Eng
lish writer to mention the humming
bird.

Easy to get, hard to get rid Of; that Is

They are astonished when their stomach

They had been eating hnrriedly and
irregularly for long time, to be sure,

used TO that.

which the weak stomach needs, and for

clever in the retrieving of dead and
wounded game. 1t had. in fact. never
been known to lose bird when
brought down by the gun. The owner
however, was a remarkably bad shot
and one day, on firing both barrels
hastily at a rabbit which ran unexpect-

Arctic Expedition Amusements.

In the British arctic expedition of
1875 one of the chaplains had file of
the London Times twenty years old
containing the Crimean war reports.
One copy was given out to each ship
daily; the officers had it first. then it
went to the forecastle, and soon every
one was as keen about the news as If
the war had been proceeding. The
clergyman in control of the press was
besought to issue an evening edition.
and when Sebastopol was about to be
taken excitement ran so high that the
stormed. The editor, however was
firm, and continued with his daily is

Treating Wrong Disease.

Many times women call on their family
physicians, suffering, as they imagine,
one from dyspepsia. another from heart
disease, another from liver or kidney
disease, another from nervous exhaustion
or prostration, another with pain here and
there, and In this way they all present
alike to themselves and their easy-going
and indifferent, or over-busy doctor, sep
arate and distinct diseases, for which he,
assuming them to be such, prescribes his
pills and potions. In reality. they are all
only symptoms caused by some uterine
disease. The physician, ignorant of the
cause OF suffering, encourages this prac
tice until large bills are made. The suf-
fering patient gets no better but probably
worse, by reason of the delay. wrong
treatment and consequent complications.
A proper medicine like DIR. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription, directed 10 the cause
would have entirely removed the disease,
thereby dispelling all those distressing
symptoms. and instituting comfort in
stend of prolonged misery. II has been
well said, that "a disease known Is half
