The Lexington Dispatch. Wednesday, November 25,1903. The North and the South. Major E. R. Quattlebaum, a Farmer, a Lexingtonian and a Gallant Soldier makes Eloquent Remarks in the North Extrolling the South. Major E. R. Quattlebaum, secretary and treasurer of the Mobile Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, has returned irom a visit to the North. Regarding his trip he says: "After spending ten days visiting Cincinnati and various other cities, <* and in baying the most enjoyable time of my life, I bave returned to Mobile. I spent a day and night in Bowling Green, Kentucky, and was royally entertained at the beautiful borne of Colonel Mottley, mayor-elect of that city; visited the family and grave of xny brother, General P. J. Quattlebaum (the former at Covington and the latter at Newport), and was hospitably and delightfully entertained for two days by Mr. and Mrs. A. T. Morris at Newport. While in Cincinnati, I represented the Mobile* Humane Society at the annual meeting of the American Humane Association, and, with the able assistance of that great and good woman Mrs. Sohafter,of New Orleans I also, in part, represented the South. ll A aV*iM 1aVvr,i> era a a 1 DpUI II UU bUUU Aaw* ?uu before that convention, in which it was stated that in New York and some other Northern states child labor was humanely restricted, but that there were dark places where the poor little children were compelled to 'work their fingerB cff,' and instanced South Carolina and Alabama. I showed wherein the imputation was unjust and the writer mistaken as to the facts of the case, and I moved that the names of South Carolina and Alabama be expunged from the report, which was done. "Being called upon by the chair to . tell something of the humane work being done in Alabama, I made two impromptu speeches upon the subject?one showing the minucia of the work and the assistance rendered by the press and the Mobile and Ohio and Louisville and Nashville roads; and the otherwas, as stenographically reported, as follows: " 'Mr. President and Brothers and Sisters of the Humane Associations ?I come from the Land of Magnolias, beautiful women, and ever-blooming flowers; from the chivalric land of Wheeler and Hobson ?- the home of Father Ryan and Augusta Evans Wilson?beautiful Mobile, by the < Mexico Gulf. u 'I come, not with my whole anatomy, as I lost some of that in fighting for Southern righfce, home and independence, but I couie, with my whole heart beaming with love for my fellow man?to strike hands with you in the great cause of humanity. < " kWe, cf the South, stand abreast with you in every good work and way, and the Mobile Humane Society Btands first in the world to procure a fine and conviction against the cruel use of the barbarous overhead checkrein; first, in the South, to procure a Bimilar conviction and fine against cruelty to poultry; first to perform the Caesarian operation upon disabled and dying cows, and thus saving the lives of calves; first to use strychnine, administered by the intravenous process to produce instantaneous and painless death; first in the world to advocate the co-education of the heart, mind and body, the making of heart culture a part of the curriculum of cur schools; and thus causing all of the attributes of man to grow parri-passu into a perfect man, with the image and spirit of his Maker. 44 4I regret that I can but continue to be a plodder in this grand work on account of lack of means in hands and money, and I can but ever regret that I have not and caDnot have the combined elcquenee,of Calhoun, Clay, Webster, Demosthenes and Cicero, that I might, in clarion voice and eloquence, awake the latent good in our people and thus be able to build a monument of good deeds, reaching up to the great white throne of the Author of Good Deeds ?the God of all mercies and goodness/ " ? Next to cash a man's best asset is confidence. From South Africa. New Way of Using Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Mr. Arthur Chapman writing from Durban, Natal, South Africa, says: "As a proof that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is a cure suitable for old and young, I pen you the following: A neighbor of mine had a child just over two months old. It had a very bad cough and the parents did not know what to give it. I suggested that if they would get a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and put some upon the dummy teat the hfthv was sucking it would no doubt cure the child. This they did and brought about a quick relief and cured the baby." This remedy is for sale by The Kaufmann Drug Co. Drua2s vs. Sotar. The accounts of the destruction of Cervera's squadron reveal one reason why the Spanish man of war's men could not hit anything smaller than the Atlantic Ocean. They were drunk. When picked up by our sailors they showed it plainly. Such men can do nothing with modern naval fighting machines. Opposed to them were cool heads and steady nerves. Liquor has been found worse than useless to explorers in the Artie region or in Africa. It is not permitted to engineers or other railroad employees, nor is it served to our navy. The English campaign in Egypt demonstrated the benefit of total abstinence, and here again at Santiago the utter folly of drunkenness becomes clear. Pretty soon, in this country, at least, laws will be the only thing we shall dare to leave the making of men who drink alcoholic liquor. He Could Hardly Grot Up. P. H. Duffy, of Ashley, 111., writes, "This is to certify that I have taken two bottles of Foley's Kidney Cure and it has helped me more than any other medicine. I tried - many advertised remedies, but none of them gave me relief. My druggist recommended Foley's Kidney Cure and it has cured me. Befqre commencing its use I was in such a shape that I could hardly get up when once down.'" The Kaufmann Drug Co. - Promptly Corrected. Two young fellows at Liverpool, partners in the tea trade, were the best ?f fHends and their intimacy extended to personal as well as business matters. One of them, a simple-minded fellow, was a bachelor, and was in the habit of reading to his partner extracts from letters of an ardent and affectionate nature from a lady in the north of England, who signed herself "Susie." The married one went to China for twelve months and returned just in time to attend the wedding of his partner. "I hardly feel like a strauger," he said, in his sweetest tones, addressing the bride. "In fact I feel as though I ought to be well acquainted with my partner's wife, since he has often done me the honor to read to me extracts from his dear Susie's letters." The face of the husband and speaker were Btudies as the bride drew ber-self up and said, emphatically and distinctly, "I beg your pardon? my name is Helen." Best Liniment on Earth. Henry D. Baldwin, Supt. City Water Works, Shullsburg, Wis., writes: "I have tried many kinds of liniment, but I have never received much benefit until I used Ballard's Snow Liniment for rheumatism and rvainc T <-V>inIr if. fVio Vipsf linimpnt on earth." 25:, 50c, $1.00.

Good roads, and it is improvement of the roads which the act is primarily designed to bring about, are necessary to the people of a commonwealty as are the good houses. If the arteries are the life of the body, its highways are the life of a State. Kemove its means of intercourse with the outside world and any community would become insular in all the manifold meanings of the word. Improve them, and so make material, intellectual and social breadth. Of what use are schools, churches and other institutions, which stand for the symbols of enlightenment, if they are Dot accessible? Good roads are th cords which bind together the mental, material and social life of the country 6ide. Without them prosperity languishes advancement halts and the hardships of primitive conditions make narrow the environments of the people. The increased value of property which they touch; the acceleration of business and trades of all kinds, the facilities for expansion along all lire :?these and countless other benefits prove good roads outweigh any possible plea that might be urged against them. The entering wedge has been placed, and the first blow struck. We are confident that the it t_ t- r l , system win worK out success lor itself.?Atlanta Journal. The Best Liniment. "Chamberlain's Pain Balm is considered the best liniment on the market," write Post & Bliss, of Georgia, Vc. No other liniment will heal a cut or bruise so promptly. No other affords such quick relief from rheumatic pains. No other is so valuable for deep seated pains like lame back and pains in the chest. Give this liniment a trial and you will never wish to be without it. Sold by The Kaufmann Drug Co. Passing of "Gee, Whoa, Haw." "One thing in the management of horses in this town that surprises me is the elimination of 'Gee, whoa, haw' from the drivers' vocabulary," said the man who was brought up in the country. "In one capacity or another I have been brought in close connection with a number of teamsters and their horses, and I have noticed that the old-fa6hioned horse talk with which I waB familiar up State is almost unIr-n finrn Korc Auv/nu uui w? "In its stead the drivers say 'Hi, there,' and 'Get along,' and shout numerous other directions that I do not care to mention. The animals seem to understand these strenuous remarks and obey fairly well, but I can't help wondering why the owners have abandoned the 'Gee, whoa haw' of my boyhood days."?New York Times. Disastrous Wrecks. Carelessness is responsible for many a rail way wreck and the same causes are making human wrecks of sufferers from Throat and Lung troubles. But since the advent of Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds, even the worst cases can be cured, and hopeless resignation is no longer necessary. Mrs. Lois Cragg of Dorchester, Mass., is one of many whose life was saved by Dr. King's New Discovery. This great remedy is guaranteed for all Throat and Lung diseases by The Kaufmann Drug Co.

Portsmouth, Va, Nov 16 -It is stated that ex-President Clevland today was unaware that he and his party, including Dr. Paul Ernest Vandyke, Ernest Gettings and Andrew Jones, are violating the gunning laws of the state by shooting on preserves of the Back Bay Gunning club in Princess, Anne county. A warrant was issued for their arrest yesterday. When it is answered the ex-president will pay a fine of $10 required to be paid by non-resident gunners. The incident has caused much innocent chaffing of Cleveland among his friends here. neuralgia Pains, Rheumatism, lumbago and sciatic pains yield to the penetrating influence of Ballard's Snow Liniment.
