It is getting so warm that Teddy is
now able to throw in a hair-breadth
escape with every speech.
The settlement of the coal strike all
hinges on the powder question. That
should be easily touched off.
“Count that day lost whose low de
scending sun” carries to the world no
account of another mobbing of Roose

Notwithstanding the fact that they
are not candidates, Senators Hanna
and Frye appear to be running the
most interesting show on the road.
The Augusta Chronicle declares that
“the farmers have been dumping their
cotton on the market in such quanti
ties that they have aided the bears in
lowering the price.”
Mr. Croker goes Mr. Bryan a few
better, and maintains that every young
man should not only Jiave the chance
to go to school, but that he should be
accompanied by a valet and a blooded
bull pup.
Capt. A, B. S. Mosely of Rome, Ga.,
who was several months ago appointed
vice consul to Singapore, has decided
not to go, and, will in a few day for

The New York Suu indulging in
abuse and vituperation of Robert E.
Lee is one of the things which were
to be expected. The Sun is built on
the right plan to slander a great and
good man.
The chief importation into this coun
try from the Philippine Islands at pres
ent, says the Savannah News, seems to
be sick and insane soldiers. The trans
port Logan is now on the way home
with a load of them.
It is probable that when the Georgia
Division of Confederate Veterans meets
in Augusta Gen. Evans will be prevail
upon to withdraw his resignation as
commander-in-chief. He is already
being urged by many veterans to re
consider the matter.
One of the skyscrapers in New York
has a daily population of 3,100, and
the mail sent out from it averages 18, -
000 pieces a day. Every forty minutes
a mafy>\agon from the postoffice carries
away from this building seventy-five
pounds of out going mail.
The success of the Georgia State
Fair, which will open at Valdosta Oct.
’“129, is already assured. The entries al
ready in are sufficient to make the most
magnificent agricultural exhibit seen
at any state fair in years, and entries
yet to come will make it the best ever
seen in Georgia.
A prominent sporting man in New
York estimates that at least two mil
lion dollars have been put up as bets
on the Presidential election. Betting
is a very uncertain means of making
monev>fe>ht those who win are not like
to see anything wrong m it. The
other fellows will repent of such an
immoral habit.
The New York Commercial is much
impressed with the rapid development
of the cotton manufacturing industry
of the South. This section, it says,has
now 4,801,320 spindles in active opera
tion, and during the present year will
bring 1,418,497 more spindles into play,
closing the year with some 8,250,000
spindles. Since 1880 the progress has
been amazing, both in the growth and
in the manufacturing of cotton. In
other lines also the progress has been
phenomenal. Iron and steel making,
coal mining, lumbering, the cottonseed
oil industry, diversification of crops,
railroading, banking and education—in
these great things have been accom
plished, The South is to-day emphati
cally the most promising field of enter
prise iu the Union.

BRYAN’S RECEPTION IN NEW
YORK.
Even the Republican newspapers of
New York were forced to admit that
the reception tendered Bryan there last
Tuesday night was the greatest politi
cal demonstration ever witnessed in
that city,and never before w r as Madison
l Square Garden so completely filled
I with people. The New York Herald,
I for instance, very frankly says the tre-
I mendous demonstration will greatly
• aid the Democratic cause all over the
country. The Herald says:
“It will convince Mr. Bryan’s sup
porters all over the country that the
New York Democrats are making a
sincere effort to carry the State. It
will reveal to Democrats here and else
where that a fight of a stubborn char
acter is on in the Hast—a thing they
have been very much disposed to
doubt. Whether the impetus that has
been given the Democratic campaign is
to be continued will much depend up
on the developments of Mr. Bryan’s
four days’ tour of the State, which be
gins this morning. His speechmaking
! to-day will take him through the Hud
son Valley as far north as Saratoga
county, and by the time he reaches
Buffalo, Saturday night, he wili have
traversed more than half the counties
of the State.
“Mr. Bryan attended a conference of
Democratic leaders of Eastern States
yesterday atternoon. Richard Croker,
speaking for his portion of the Demo
cratic party, assured Mr. Bryan that
New York’s electoral vote would be
given to him. The Hill Democracy was
not represented. Democratic leaders
from New Jersey assured Mr, Bryan
that, he would carry that State. Mr.
Bryan said that he would be elected
even if he failed to carry New York
and New Jersey.
“In one of the Criminal Courts of
Washington, a few days ago,” says the
Post of that city, “a man was senten
ced to two years and a half in the pen
itentiary and a woman to three years
m the same institution. The natural
inference from these facts would be
that the crime whereof the latter was
convicted was 20 per cent more heinous
than that charged and proven against
the former. Supposing the court, intent
upon dealing out even and exact jus
tice, or the nearest practicable ap
proach thereto, the obligation of the
man to outraged law ought to be 20
per cent more than that of the woman.
The man was convicted of having as
saulted, with intent to kill his wife.
The woman was convicted of having
stolen an article worth $87.”
One good Republican and imperialist
differs with his party on the trusts
question. In an interview reported a
few day ago Gen. Russell A. Alger,
late secretarv of war of the present
administration, says; “Ido not agree
with Mr. Hanna if he has been rightly
i quoted. If I buy up the manufacturing
interests of a number of concerns or
firms, causing thereby the closing up
or impoverishing of communities that
had grown up around them, and forc
ing smaller concerns to the wall, I
would be guilty of forming a trust.
’ Such trusts should be prevented and
where they exist should be killed,” It
1 is altogether probable, however, that
the ex-secretary would not express
himself so forcibly if he were still in
! office.
It is always pleasant news to hear
1 that one of the trusts has over-reached
itself and is m deep water. One of the
big concerns, it is reported, is now m
that condition. A Chicago paper says:
“A short but significant exhibit of the
decline of popular interest iu the bi
cycle is afforded by the first annual
report of the Bicycle trust for the year
ending July 31. Five years ago, when
all the world was a-wheel, the com
panies now composing the trust earned
more than s3,ooo,ooo;this year their net
profits are barely in excess of S6<X),CCO.

liflf BLOOD,
BAD COMPLEXION.
The skin is the seat of an almost end
less variety of diseases. They are known
by various names, but are all due to the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that irritate and interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
To have a smooth, soft skin, free from
all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations of
arsenic and potash and the large number
of face powders and lotions generally
used in this class of diseases cover up
for a short time, but cannot remove per
manently the ugly blotches and the red,
disfiguring pimples.
Eforna/ vigilance the price
of a beautiful complexion
when such remedies are relied on.
Mr. H. T. Shobe, 3704 I,uca« Avenue, St. Louis,
Mo., says: “ My daughter was afflicted for years
With a disfiguring eruption on her face, which
resisted all treatment. She was taken to two
celebrated health springs, but received no bene
fit. Many medicines were prescribed, but with
out result, until we decided to try S. S. 8., and by
the time the first bottle was finished the eruption
began to disappear. A dozen bottles cured her
completely and left her skin perfectly smooth.
She Is now seventeen years old, and not a sign of
the embarrassing disease has ever returned.”
S. S. S. is a positive, unfailing cure for
the worst forms of skin troubles. It is
the greatest of all blood purifiers, and the
only one guaranteed purely vegetable.

CATARRH
The Mother of Consumption.
How this Dread Disease May be Prevented and
Cured—The Greatest of Specialists Writes
on the Subject.
Catarrh is the mother of consumption.
By this I do not mean that every caseof catarrh de
velopee into conßumption f but I
do mean that catarrh when un
checked, and when given the
'““vS proper opportunities for exten-
B eion from its place of beginning,
•gfc R which is the nasal passages,
,7 deeper and deeper along the
> / breathing tract, invariably ends
asp-jT m Consumption of the Lungs.
Catarrh seldom destroys any
a®? considerable part of the mucous
f surface of the upper air pass-
ages; it inflames and congests
them, censing usually a super
abundant and offensive dis
charge- but when it reaches the intensely delicate
hnmg of the hair-like lung tubes and little l«ng cells,
the inflamation and congestion which it causes,
closes these small air passages and, adding the
nutrid discharged matter to accumulate, causes a roV
sing away of the membrane, resulting in what we
cal! Consumption of the Lungs.
THE TENDENCY OF CATARRH.
The tendency of catarrh, w hen it has once obtained
a foothold in any portion of , the mucous membrane
which linen every cavity of the body, is to constantly
extend in every direction. .
Catarrh in almost every instance starts with wnat is
commonly known as cola In the head. This cold Is
added to by another, because of some extra exposure
or weakening of the system and becomes chronic.
Nasalcatarrh is the result. v Unless a radical cure of
tills condition is effected, the disease passes rapidly
to the throat, to the bron chlal tubes, and then to the
lUngß< NEW LUNGS.
Consumption cannot be cured. New lunge cannot
be made for a man any more than new fingers or a
new nose; but catarrh can be curedin all its stages
except this final and always ratal one.
A CERTAIN CURE.
In an experience of twenty years, during which
time I have treated many thousands of cases of all
forms of catarrh, I have never yet failed to effect a
radical and permanent cure. The method I employ
Is one exclusively my own, and the remedies which I
use are prepared under my personal direction in my
own laboratories.
Many people imagine they have Consumption when
in reality the disease has not quite reached that
stage. lam treating and curing cases of this sort
every day. So long as the process of decay has not
began in the lungs them selves, I can make the patient
perfectly well and strong again.
BEGIN AT ONCE.
Let me once more urge all catarrhal sufferers to
begin treatment at once, for a month of treatment
now is better than the three months later on.
I shall make for the next month a specially low fee
for the treatment of catarrh not complicated by
other diseases, making no extra charge for all med
icines, etc., that may be required.
