"Truth ahmm all citings.’ Entered i I the Post office as a Newspaper. FRIDAY, MAY 19, 1899. GOOD EVENING. Sheriff Hawley should go slow in ap- pointing a new deputy sheriff in Nor- walk. Following the advice of self constituted political bosses sometimes results in very poor appointments. It’s said the average age of American women when they marry is 23. Thus the old idea of sweet 16 would appear as much a mere figure of speech as in Bryan’s case. The late Roswell P. Flower didn’t make his money by attempting to inter- fere with the affairs of his neighbors. A Louisville Judge has ruled that if a woman wears a man’s hat she must take it off when she appears in his who. is court. Here is a gentleman looking for bother. Miss Maud Adams probably prefers to take the box office opinion of her Juliet. The French woman who assisted her husband to commit suicide was deter- mined to be a dutiful wife. The enterprising yellow newspapers are now engaged in making an inven- tory of Roswell P. Flower-"s estate. Speculators working for a fall do not like a rising stock market, but they ' try to bear it the best they can. Its all right for Admiral Dewey to There’s nothing slow about him other ways. take his time coming home. The straw hat and shirt waist girl has had several setbacks, but she will have some seasonable weather before the next frost. In case the country builds a home for Admiral Dewey some means should be taken to prevent Admiral Schley claiming it. A man never realizes ’that his wife is ill until he suddenly discovers him- self dr>ssed up as chief mourner at her funeral. .

The large fact about divorces is that there is almost always another man or woman in waiting with whom the appli- cantrexpects to renew the covenants be Most persons do not seek divorce because their marriage bonds are intolerable, but because they think some other marriage bonds will be more to their If the most that the law allow- or she is not anxious to avoid. q taste. ed was separation from bed and heard, most of the discontented couples would patch up a modus vivendi and go on as they are. A redeal of husbands and wives sanctioned by the courts, the church and society differs only in de- gree, and not in principle from the cut-and-try-again doctrines which two women were deservedly ostracized for preaching a good many years ago. It is this and a large observation of life which lie back of the demands that marriage vows shall be considered sacred, something not to he lightly undertaken, and not to be severed but for the gravest reasons. ‘vv Story of a Slave. To be bound hand and feet for years by the chains of disease is the worst form of slavery. George D. Williams of Manchester, Mich, tells how such a slave‘ was made free. He says: “ My wife has been so helpless for five years that she could not turn over in bed alone. After using two bottles of Elec- tric Bitters, she is wonderfully im« proved and able to do her own work.’s This supreme remedy for female dis- eases quickly cures nervousness, sleep- lessness, melancholy, headache, back- eche, fainting and dizzy spells. This miracle working medicine is a godsend to weak, sickly, run down people. Every bottle guaranteed. Only 500. Sold by John A. Riggs, druggist, 11 Main street A‘ V ‘ A Town Thi-eatened. ATLANTA, May 19.—The Journal story published yesterday afternoon, in which it was stated an anonymous letter received at Palmetto declared the town will be fired upon by negro ex- cursionists tomorrow night, has cre- ated wild alarm in that little place. As the story goes, the letter declares that the negroes who are going to Co- lumbus, Ga., from Atlanta tomorrow ‘ v7 night to attend a. picnic will use Win- i chesters to fire from the car windows and that dynamite will be used to de- stroy property fronting on the railroad. w E E There is a Class of People Who are injured by the use of coffee. Recently there has been placed in all the grocery stores a. new preparation called GRAIN-O, made of pure grains, that takes the place of cofiee. The most delicate stomach receives it with- out distress, and but few can tell it from coffee. It does not cost over :1- as much. Children may drink it with great benefit. 15 cts. and 25 cts. per ackage Try it. Ask for GRA INO. Another Foreign Contract. PHILADELPHIA, May 19.—American bridge builders have scored another victory over foreign competitors when the Phoenix Bridge company, whose works are located at Phoenixville, Pa., was awarded the contract for six addi- tional steel bridges by the Russian gov- ernment for use on the great transsibe- rian railroad which that government is building. This makes 18 bridges the Phoenix company is constructing for Si- beria. -// ”Ill: A / =i :[E .
