It was an inscription marked with a pen on a postal card nailed to the desk. The inscription read as follows: WHICH'? j WIFE OR WHISKEY? THE BABES OR THE BOTTLE3? j J HOME OR HELL? "Where did you get that and what i did you nail it up there for?" I asked , . I tne mercnant. "I wrote that myself and nailed it up there," was his reply, "and I will tell you the st-ory of that card. Some j time ago I found myself falling into a drinking habit. I would run out once in a while with a visiting customer, or at the invitation of a traveling man, or on every slight occasion that offered. I soon found that my business faculties were becoming dulled, that my stamch was continually nf anrfs mv arvoetite ffl.il in or, *"V J j ? X"JT O' I and a constant craving for alcoholic stimulants becoming dominant, I saw tears in the eyes of my wife, wonder depicted on the face of my children, and then I took a long look ahead. One day I sat down at this desk and half unconsciously wrote the inscription on that card. On look ing at it upon its completion its awful revelation burst upon me like a : dash. I nailed it up there, and read j it over a hundred times that afternoon. That night I went home sober, and I have not touched a drop of introxieating liquor since. You see how startling is its alliteration. Now I have no literary proclivities, j ifcN and I regard that card as an inspira Hk tion. It speaks out three solemn warnings every time I look at it. The first is a voice from the altar, the second from the cradle, and the third and last from ? Let's reason together.

Their guarantee is not indefinite and relative, but definite and absolute?if the medicine doesn't help, your money is "on call." Suppose every sick man and every ? feeble woman tried these medicines and found them worthless, who would be the loser, you or they? The medicines are Dr. Pierce's "Golden Medical . Discovery," for blood diseases, and his "Favorite Prescription " for woman's peculiar ills. If they help towards health, they cost ?1.00 a bottle each! If they don't, they cost nothing! Joshua W.

I want to ask my brother farmers a few questions: Is there a farmer in Abbeville county who is willing to take it to a government warehouse rand gel SO per cent, in warehouse re"smpts, and let the balance of it go to feed a set of Radical rascals -frhose interests are against ours? Can any of you endorse such a measure? I ( sav no. The warehouse receipts have to be returned and destroyed. Is there any place that this can do our farmers any good? / Certain speakers go around trying to array class against class. I for one as a farmer, and nothing but a farmer, don't see how any Democrat . can go around trying to cause a division between white men and Democrats. I beg the farmers to reconsider g iSu measures before they vote for them. Joshua W. Ashley, Honea Path, S.

Carothers, for years at the head of the Colored Alliance in the South, is out in an open letter ^ to his people warning them against Humphrey's scheme of demanding exhorbitant prices for cotton picking. v He denounces the author of the scheme as well as the plan itself, and urges the negroes to live in har- t mony with the white farmers, alleg- t ing the closely interwoven interests * , .. .1 f oi tne two classes as tne reason in a 1 business light, and the danger of J stirring up strife as a further incentive to peace and quiet in all particulars. He says if cotton was bringing 10 or 11 cents, a better price for s picking could in jusiicebe demanded, but at present rates no man can pay an advance.

Bates, of Acwarth, Ga., c > has what one might call a curiosity. ^ It is pumpkins that will weigh not less than one hundred and twentyfive pounds. Mr. Bates has five hills of the mammoth Tours pumpkin, so named from having originated c near Tours, France, where they are t largely grown, both for table and t cattle use. It grows to an immense ? size, even with ordinary culture. In ( an agricultural report it is related c that a Bingle specimen reached the I enormous weight of 320 pounds, and that the product of one vine amounted to nearly nine hundred pounds. \ The flesh is of a beautiful salmon ^ color, solid nearly all the way through with very few seed. Mr. Bates is r undoubtedly the champion pumpkin raiser of Georgia. | The Famers' Alliance of Iowa has ! v split.

Perfect action and perfect health esult from the use of Be AVitt's Little Early Risers, a perfect little >ill. At J. W. Long's. There is a clergyman in New Mexco who goes by the name of Rev. .'unoeent wolf. The man with a cork leg, a glass ye, false teeth and a borrowed repuation is man of parts.

A ton of tomatoes as they come rom the field, it is estimated, will ill from 400 to 546 cans. Perteze Zrnchzszkowskelowsk is a abinet-maker of Buffalo, N. Y. He ccasionally uses his name for a saw. You never tried De Witt's Little Carly Risers for constipation, biliousness, sick headache or you rould not have these diseases. At ". W. Long's. She?"I don't suppose you are ond of kissing babies?" He?''Not mless they are girl babies about 18 ears old." Delaware has a very singular phe lomenon at Wilmington in the shape f a citizen 54 years old who is cuting his third set of teeth. De Witt's Sarsaparilla destroys uck poisons as scrofula, skin dis ase, eczema, rneumausm. us imely use save many lives. At J. ft. Long's. '*My mamma's got whiter teeth han your mamma," said Allie. 'She'd oughter have. She changes'em ftener," retorted Maudi9. The difference between realism ,nd idealism is just the difference between a girl's opinion of her lover ,nd the young man himself. Don't storm the system as you i'culd a fort. If held by the enemy, onstipation, gently persude it to urrender with De Witt's Little Carly Risers. These little pills are t'ouderful convincers. At J.

The life insurance companies of he United States pay $1,500,000 ier year toward supporting the phyicians who make their medicine laminations. People with impure blood may >e said to exist, not live.
