"What is it now?" queried Mrs. | Bowser as Mr. Bowser finished his | after dinner smoke and started up j stairs. ' Going to save a'hundred dollars in cash and indulge in a little bene i ficial exercise at the same time," he replied. ' You are not going to?to tear any of the walls down or remove the roof of the house?'' "No, ma'am. Our house is heated by a furnace. That furnace naturally has a smoke-pipe. That smoke-pipe must be cleaned cut before we staT a fire this fall." "But, why don't you get a man to do it?" "For several reasons. First, I need the physical exercise. Second, I don't propose to pay no stove man a hundred dollars to come up here and fool around for four weeks over what will take me about twenty minutes. Thirdly and lastly, I am a domestic man and like to be doing little odd jobs around my own house." "Mr. Bowser, please don't do it!" gasped Airs. Bowser as she turned pale. "You'll get the pipe apart and then?and then?!" "And then clean out a barrel or two of soot, and put it together again," he finished. "I'm going to slip on my old clothes and have the job over in half an hour. You just sit down with the newspaper and you won't hear a sound." uTf wm'll lf>t. if, nlnne TT1 fet a man ? - j ~ ? ? 7" - -w o pay him out of my weekly allowance!" she called to him as he was half way up stairs. "Half an hour?easy as rolling off w O a log?save a hundred dollars?sit right down!" he replied as he disappeared. Ten minutes later he came down with an old suit on, and he had in his hands a gimlet, a screw driver, a monkey wrench, a hammer, a cold chisel, a pot of glue, a glass cutter and a coil of wire. "Why not let it go until December?'' she asked as he was ready to go, and j planning to get some one next day. ; "And let a cold wave catch us and i freeze all the water pipes!" he" exj claimed in answer. "Mrs. Bowser, i i vou sit right down and -don't worrv. I / O J I I was cleaning out smoke pipes be| fore you were born, and there's nothl ing in this job to get excited over." He had scarcely disappeared down I cellar when Mrs. Bowser went to her I | room up stairs and locked the door, i Mr. Bowser lighted up the cellar and i took a goccl Iook at tne stove pipe, it | ! was twenty feet long, with one end ! at the furnace and the other end in ! the chimney, and was supported at j intervals by wires attached to the i ceiling. "Save Just a hundred dollars and have all the physical exercise to boot/' he muttered as he began at the wires,*. "There are men who run ! to the glazier, the plumber and the stove man whenever a little job wants to be done, and there are other men who save time and money by taking a hand themselves. The idea of my getting a man to patter around here for a month or six weeks!" "When the wires had been loosened ; Mr. Bowser knew just what to do i-next, and he did it. He palled thci end of the pipe out of the chimney, j As soon as that had been done the J five or six joints fell apart with a ?reat clatter and he was instantly ino > * j veloped in a cloud of soot and ashes. I As the joints fell one of them struck j his foot and as he made jump to evade the soot he stumbled over ani other and came down on the hard I ! | bottom of the cellar and rolled over j on his back. j "Woman! I see how it is!" he yelled ! out in his first surprise, but the words J were hardly uttered before be got up and rubbed bis knees and the back j of bis bead and whispered to himself: "It's all right?all right! I inO O I tended to take the joints apart anyj way. and this has saved me a let of | j trouble. It would have taken a stove j i man just two weeks to do what I Lave ! ; done iu ten minutes. It's a wonder : | the old lady isn't down here to ask j if there has been an earthquake." Mr. Bowser cautiously picked each j I joint of the pipe and played a tattoo j on it with a hammer. That is the I proper way to clean 'em, and he did it j j as well as a stove man could have done. When a smoke pipe has been | taken a part it must be put together again to be made useful. Fully re- I alizing this fact, Mr. Bowser began j work. He picked up two joints and fitted them together. Xo, he didn't. To his surprise they wouldn't fit. They were made to fit, had fitted and ought by natural philosophy to fit again, but he turned thein over and over and end for end aud failed to make a go of it. He suddenly made a discovery. "One wants pounding out and the other pounding in!" he chuckled, as he reached for his hammer. ;T don't claim to be the smartest man in America, but if I can't put two joints of pipe together?" He couldn't. The hammering had not improved them. He took two other joints, but they were just as obstinate. All of a sudden Mr. Bowser got mad and jumped for the ax, but his feet slipped in the sool and he wert down and saw millions of stars as the back of his head whacked the cement. "Some cno shall suffer for this!" he * / 11 i -...11.. said as lie nnany sat up; ana ue was on the point of going up stairs and bringing Mrs. Bowser's perfidious conduct home to her when the resolution came to have one more hid. Only an hour before he had read in his newspaper the saving "What man has done can be done again," and he picked up all the joints, stood them on end in a row and surveyed them in a critical way. None were missing. The end of each and every joint had b3ea mile to fit into another. All he had to do was exercise patience and press and squeeze and tap with the hammer. Mr. Bowser pressed. He also squeezed. He likewise tapped. He was just on the point of success when the joints fell apart and banged around over his feet and rolled away. "With a wild war whoop he grabbed the ax and began to pound and batter and destroy, but as he raised his weapon for a fell swoop it hit the ceiling and rebounded on his head and Mr. Bowser knew no more for ten minutes. Then he realized that Mrs. Bowser and the cook were bending over him with camphor, brandy, porous plasters, Jamaica ginger, ammonia, porous sticking salve, and in a far away voice he heard the cook asking: "Is it a naygur, Mrs. Bowser, who was sent up here to clean the pipe, and if so, why didn't I see him?*' And in far away tones, as the camphor bottle was placed to his nose he heard Mrs. Bowser reply: "No?it's Mr. Bowser himself. He wanted to save a hundred dollars and Lave the benefit of the physical exercise besides, and I guess he's done it. While you are going for a doctor you'd better stop four or five men and ask 'em to come in and help get him up stairs, and you can stop at the grocery and order six bars of soap sent down at once." "Woman?" began Mr. Bowser, but then the-lights went out and he could not finish by announcing that his lawyer would see her lawyer in the morning. ??

Her feet j became so swollen she could wear I nothing on then; her hands were J drawn all out of shape. Her eyes ! were swollen shut more than half J the lime, her knee joints terribly ' swollen and for eighteen months she ? ! had to be held up to be dressed. J One limb became entirely helpless, and the skin was so dry and cracked that it would bleed. During these eight years she had been treated by a score of physicians, and has also spent much time at Ann Arbor under best medical advice. All said her trouble was brought on by hard j work and that medicine would not cure, aud that rest was the only thing which would ease her. After going to live with her daughter she became entirely helpless and could not even raise her arms to cover herself at night. The interesting part of the story follows in her own words: "I was urged to try Dr. "Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People and at last did so. In three days after I commenced taking Pink Pills I could sit up and dress myself, and after ! using them six weeks I went home j and commenced working. I contin! ued taking the pills, until now I bej gin to forget my crutches, and can j go up and down steps without aid. j I am truly a living wonder, walking out of doors without assistance.'' "Now, if I can say anything to ic| duce those who have suffered a3 I j have, to try Pink Pills, I shall gladly I do so. If other like sufferers will j try Pink Pills according to directions, | they will have reason to thank God i for creating men who are able toconI quer that terrible disease, lhc-umai tism. I have in my own neighbor| hood recommended Pink Pills for the after effects of la grippe, 'and weak women with impure blood, and ._e\yitb good results." I Mrs. Todd is very strong in her | faith in the curative powers of Pink Pills, and say they have brought a poor, helpless cripple back to do her own milking, churning, washing, sewing, knitting, and in fact about | all of her household duties, thanks I to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

TV. NcNair, to a San Francisco Post writer, '"I found myself in a village and with a large toothache. I found the local dentist, with his whirligig eDgine that resembled a small lathe, at the livery stable clipping a horse. " 'Do you treat teeth?' I asked. "'Course; what do you suppose I'm here for?' he replied, iu a nettled tone. "'Well, I have one that needs attention.' "'Want it pulled or plugged?' he ! asked. " 'I want it treated. How do you treat a tooth that is aching?' "'Pull it or plug it.' "'I think this could be saved if it had proper treatment.' "'Want it nlue^ed then? What is J. oo it?jaw tooth or gnawer"?' and he tried to force a finger that was covered with dirt and horsehair into my mouth. I had grown a tritie suspicious of him, so thought I would find out what sort of work he did. "'Do you do bridge work?' I asked. " Not since I been practicin'.

The Military Display Surpasses Any- | thing of the Kind Ever Seen in i the Gate City?Evans and Tillman speak. j ! Special to The State. . j Atlanta, Nov. 28?"Carolina day" ! has proven to be by far the biggest j day of the Exposition thus far. It i i has been a red letter day in every j : sense of the word. Carolinians, and | . particularly Columbians, could be | seen at every crook and turn today. | i It looked this morning as if the whole ! ? of Columbia had been turned loose in the Gate" City. Being Thanks giving day also, the people came j here by the thousands from everyj where and the streets were jammed j with moving masses of humanity, i The day was an ideal one, mildly cold and delightfully pleasant. The ! crowd was so great that it was with | difficulty that the 2,000 or more j South Carolina troops could be ' gotten into line. Ihe formation was i slow and the parade did not move ' until about noon. But when it did ; it was a parade worthy of the Palmetto State, and reflected credit upon Adjutant General AVatts. The day has been a continual round of pleasure, with absolutely nothing to mar its symmetry. The ! speeches were listened to by a crowd ! that jammed the auditorium to its utmost capacity, aiiu it was uu cii- | ! tbusiastic crowd. Subsequently the | reception held by the executive party under the direction of Commissioner j Roche and Major Wilkes at the : Illinois buildiDg was an enjoyable , affair. Then came the reception ! ! tendered the leading Carolinians at i | rr? i the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Til- j I linghast and the finale was the re I ception tendered the South Carolinians at the executive mansion tonight by Governor and Mrs. Atkino 0 son. The first thing on the programme | was the great military parade. The I troops made a lovely show, the Columbia companies making a striking appearance. One near the head of the procession could not begin to see the end in the far distance. Both j : sides of Peachtree street were lined j : with thousands of spectators, and j the piazzas of the handsome resi- j dences were filled with the fairest of j , i Georgians who waved flags and kerj chiefs at the passing boys in grey nvrl VilnA Thr> nrdpr nf the oarade ; was as follows: Col.

The Governor's Guards made a splendid show with their grey uniforms and white crossed belt straps. The M'ashington Light Infantry and the Sumter Guards made a particularly fiue appeararce. The Citadel corps of course excited great admiration. The men marched beautifully. The Clemson corps made a particularly good appearance. Arrived at the grounds the troops : l 1 l? n. wt'ie isvieweu uu iuc uv uw?ernors Atkinson and Evans. Then the troop3 were dismissed and all repaired to the Auditorium, where the two Governors and Senator Tillman were to speak. There w s a rush for seats in the great Auditorium, and in a short time it was filled to over flowing. Among those on the stand were those who occupied the carriages in the parade: W. Gibbes Whaley, Dr. E. L Patten and wife, GeneraHVatts, General Farley, CAonel Bruce, Maj. Henry W. Cipers, Lieut. Gov. Timmerman, D. II. Behre, B. B. Evans, S. M. Inmau of Atlanta, Commis sioner Roche, H. B. Buist and wife and others. At 1:50 p. m., Governors Evans and Atkinson came upon the stand amid vociferous applause. At 2 o'clock the exercises began with a beautiful prayer by Dr. Porter. He thanked the divine ruler for the genius and energy by which this great exposition had been made. He prayed that iising generations should obtain knowledge from it. Senator Tillmau came out then, wearing a palmetto tree in miniature on his coat lapel and was vigorously cheered. Commissioner Roche then introduced Governor AtkinsoD, who delivered a 20 minute address of welcome. He referred to the relations of the States in the past, and twitted Governor Evans for not showing a greater appreciation of the women of his State. Continuing, he said: "I am glad also to say to you that on this occasion the people, I know not whenceJUey come, have paid a high tribute to the governor of South Carolina despite his shortcomings, and to their distinguished Senator, and to their presence testified a higher appreciation of their worth and of their presence than they gave to the President of the United States. And why should they not? Why j should Georgia not stand by South Carolina?'' He told the Carolinians they were welcome to all they could eat and if there was anything else they wanted all they had to do was to ask for it. He feared they would feel the need of it. In the course of his speech, he said, after relatiug Carolina's past: ' When Georgia, Laving redeemed herself from degradation, looked around her, she looked across the line and saw engaged in a mighty conflict the man who had been heroic in war. yet who has done nothing to I .. immortalize his name such as was j done by him in this mighty struggle for the supremacy of the moral and ; intellectual forces of South Carolina, and I allude to General Wade Hampton.

HARMAN, Editor. claimed that Georgia was Carolina's daughter, and he thanked them for the opportunity to show South Caro lica's superiority. South Carolina had a past. She never had to go out of the conllict for repairs. Carolinians were not a prople with much brass. They had ilways had brains. (Applause.) He then said the solid south was solid no longer. The north was solid against her. We are told to divide while the shylocks consolidate. We are told that we are fanatics. They were now cherishing an ideal form of government, which could only be obtained in one way, but can never be perpetuated but by the paen who own and till the soil. The only hope for us is in the west. Carolina realizes that the foundation of all wealth is in the country'. Unless you go to congress and make this tight and follow the crankyism of South Carolina and Ben Tillman you will never succeed. "When he closed there were cries of ''Hurrah for South Carolina." There were loud cries then lor Senator Tillman and he came forwrjrd . * S slowly. The crowd had been waiting to hear the man they had read about so much and it was curious to note the expression of expectancy on every face. Wtien the applause died away, he began. All through his s speech he was interrupted by alternative laughter and applause. He * regarded Georgia as Carolina's big and handsome sister. He was in a joking mood and made Governor Evans and his bachelor's state the object of it for some moments, much to the amusement of the crowd. He said the governor was young and green, but had a reasonable amount of brains and a pretty fair character. He concluded with some impressive United States pension figures. He maintained that the south had since the war paid to the north four hundred millions of dollars pension . mi- f it iL. triDute. l uis was iar more luau me north had ever invested in the south. It this money had been left in the south she would be the most advanced country on earth today. Someone asked him about Grover Cleveland. He said: ''There are people who beliere that Wall street knows a'l about finance, and nobody can teach them anything and they must 6ay 'm4 too' every time the New York World or Grover Cleveland grunts.. I wouldn't have said anything about old Grover if your governor hadn't alluded to him, because I will have a better opportunity to use my pitchfork on him when I go to Washington. But it does my soul good to hear the governor of Georgia say that two little bobtailed Reformers attracted more attention and drew more applause than the Presi dent of the United States." Tomorrow the Carolinians who came on the executive special will devote their attention to seeing the great show in detail, leaving for home on a vestibuled special at 11:15 Saturday night. The reception at the executive ; manison was largely attended tonight. The Southern railway got in its last section loaded with Carolinians early this morning. The service i given has excited universal favorable comment from those who came to Atlanta. E. J. Watson. ! Eats Poison and Crockory. I Now York WoiM. Cipt. Yetrio, know as the man with the iron stomach, gave an exhibition of his gastric powers before a small party of newspaper and medical men at the Sinclair House recently. Illustrative of the non-effect of nnisnn nnnn the lininf? of his store r ~c ? ?-> acb, be swallowed several concoctions whieb were certainly poisonous looking, and while the spectators were gaping with amazement he meditatively cbewed a flower pot. Between whiles be told stories of occasions when he subsisted for fourteen consecutive days upon poisons and crockery. He seemed ti relish ordinary poison, but strenuously objected to any mixture containing an acid, for fear of corroding the iron lining of his stomach. Towards the end of the exhibition Captain Yetrio evidently became hungry, for he took a luncheon of tallow candle, plain bread and morphine mixture, and then smilingly bowed the spectators from the room. There are two reasonable things which everybody should do: take good care of one's health; and if lost, regain it quickly, and to this everybody will agree. And there are a great multitude of people who are agreed that for both purposes Simmons Liver Regulator is the best helper. "I am troubled with torpid liver and nothing gives relief so quick like Simmons Liver Regulator"?R. R. Strange, Lake City, Fla.
