Forrest County Medical Society, the

The Forrest County Medical Asso-

ject that has been somewhat dis

THE ASSASSIN OF CHARACTER.

Ex-Governor James K. Vardaman, in
the current number of the Issue, has
this to say of the assassin of charac.
ter:
The wild beast lurking up on the
rock to spring upon it's unsuspecting
prey; the mountain lion that entered
the tent of the Rocky Mountain hunter
a few days ago and tore from the low
ing arms of a devoted mother sleep
ing infant; the snake that coils be-
meath the leaves OF the rose bush to
strike the innocent, thoughtless child
as he plucks the flower; the assassin
who drives his dagger into the pal
pitating heart and releases the soul
from the tenement of clay or steal
thily puts poison in the cup and offers
it as an expression of everlasting
friendship, all of these are better, in
truth, they are white winged angels
of mercy and love compared with the
cold-blooded, scurvy, cowardly, rotten
hearted individual who would under
take to Destroy the character and
blast the reputation of fellow-creat-
ure.
did you ever see such a man a
thing made in the image of God but
spawned in the prutresence pool of
hell? Did you ever see the concealed
wolf in his cordial grin and feel n
his handshake the grave opening
weapon of the ghoul?
He criticised me and will get
even with him. He blocked some
little game OF mine and | will shoot
him from ambush
IF God Almighty should turn over to
the devil all the mis-shaped moral
perverts, cramped souls and crooked
characters that ever miscarried from
the womb of debauched nature, with
all of his wisdom, shrewdness and cum
ningness, and damned meanness,
coupled with an eternity of expert
ences, the worst thing the devil could
possibly make out of sucn mater. !
would be no better thing than a cold
blooded, cowardly assassin of charac.
