FTVB YEARS of patient and persevering endeavor I bave at last succeeded in getting control of the best hand made copner distilled Whiskey in the world. ( Whiskey has been tested by tbe United States Chemist at Washington, D. C, and nred to be perfectly free from all poisonous chemicals generally present in the dis fon of all Whiskeys commonly used in tbe United States. It is entirely free from saddening effect, the nauseating of the stomach, and the immediate intoxication t is always the result of tte use of an inferior article. It is pleasant to the palate, not that burning effect so common in other goods. It is strengthening, invigora and mild, giving the bouyancy of youth to old age. It is stimulating to tbe over ted ard feeble; in cases of consumption, heavy colds, weak lungs, debility and loss >petite it is quickly recommended by tbe leading doctors and hospital physicians ie United States, and no sfck room should be without it. All enfeebled, weak, old ijmd infirm should take it daily as directed, and thereby regain that bouancy and strength IJhatconntieas thousands stand so much in need of.

Ramsay preached a time Bermoo at the Citadel Square Bap? tist Church yesterday from the text: "How long have I to live?" 2nd Samuel, 19, 34. Sometime ago, uaid the pastor, while David's troops were in great need, a kind hearted old man by name of Bar zillai brought the necessaries of life to the soldier king's hungry camp. Now that the war is over David wishes to show gratitude to his benefactor and hence extends an invitation to his aged friend to come to Jerusalem and spend the remainder of bis days in ease and distinction at his court. The reply is touching: "How long have I to live that I should go up with the king to Jerusa? lem ? Let thy servant turn back that I may die in mine own city and be buried by the grave of my father and mother." Whether yon are old or young attention is directed to this great question. I can think of no question that could be a?ked with more appropriateness at the begin? ning of the new year. Let es profit by our experience and ask the old year what message she has for the newvear. I remark in the first place, that asking this question, "How long have I to live ?" will.enable ub to place a proper estimate on the part. The past is un? changeable. The voice beneath' the skies is loud enough to call back a parted hour. There is no" subtle power of earth's chemistry to erase its record, nor ?an yon make up for lost time as we are ac? customed to think. However well we may spend to moqmw its deeds must stand on to-morrow's ample page. Yes? terday was just such u day as earth never saw before and never.^shall see again. Emerging out of darkness and eternity she sparkled a few fleeing hears aud Rank back whence she came bearing the rec? ord of earth's fair and foal deeds ia her clinched hand. On that memorable day for which all others were created, this departed yesterday shall shoot forth from behind the throne of God to face us at God's bar whether or not we want her testimony. But let me b'eg you not to bemoan the irrevocable past. Life is too abort for idle tears. Thon ohalt|aot stand Naobe like with face bathed in perpetual tears. Our loving God does not Ray to the broken hearted, "sit here and muse upon your ill-spent life and let the".vulture of remorse eat onr your ever-growing heart." In a noble passage in Adam Bede Georgie Elliot has one of her char? acters to say in tersest wisdom: "It's little good you'll do a-watering last year's crop." Yet we may learn some? thing from the past that will be helpful. If you stood by the deathbed of the de? parting '92 and asked earnestly what message she had for the young '93, yon may thereby be made a better man. There is something better than new year resolutions. They are often made in our own strength to be broken in our own weakness. Bat earnestly closeted with you ? own soul gather from the past lee sons from yoar strength and weakness, yoor trials and triumphs, and pairing tears with prayers and matching yoar joyous smiles with humble thanksgiving, gain wisdom for whatever the future may have in store. Again, a proper consideration ef the old man's question will enable as to ap? preciate the present. The importaoce of the present time is fell; when we think of its briefness. Tbe present is all the time we have. The past is gone and tbe fu? ture is not ours. How long is tbe pres ent? It is gene before you can name it. But these fleeting particles of time make up our life. How important is the word now? How large ahull I write it? I cannot write it so large as the heaven or hell will be, which it shall bring you to? How often shall I repeat tbe Word ? I cannot repeat it as long as the wonderful eternity that hingea on your Use of the now. How load shall I proclaim it? Not so loud as the shrieks of the lost who have abased il. Your future con? duct will be influenced by tbe manner in which the present time is spent. In a very important sense no action in our lives is, an accident. A man is not capable of performing an action at vari? ance with himself. ? Everyone carries in his bosom the germs of his most excep? tional conduct. Every deed has it own mystsrious history, bat is governed by laws in harmony with the character of its author. For some this year will have its full weight of misery, while others will find it full of bliss. If you say so it will be a benediction. Carry with you the si uuer's friend and there will be peace. Colridge exclaims: "Great God, how glorious it is to live 1" while Renal, the infidel, sighs: "0 God, when will it be worth while to live?"?News and Courier, J January 9/A. The Salvation Army. The Society of Friends must now give place to the Salvaticn Army as tbe great peace ehurch. They preach peace and practice it, and at their annual meeting General Booth stated, they were the largest missionary organization on earth, with over five thousand officers at home, and more than six thousand officers aboad. In 1891 they had 4.292 corps and outposts; this year, 6,293. In 1891 there were 10,452 officers; this year, 11,113. They had th irty-two newspapers and six magazines, tbe annual circulation being 47,600,000. There were eighty six training garrisnus?that was to say, eighty-six colleges in their university. They had twenty-five homes of rest for sick and wounded officers. They oecu pied thirty-eight countries and colonies. This year they had gone to Western Australia, where they had already got a magnificent footing, and converted some of the biggest black guards. The Army preached salvation in twenty four different languages, and bad local officers and bandsmen to the num? ber of 61,713. They had forty three rescue homes, seventy two slum corps,: fifteen prison-gate aomea, twelve food depots, twenty four shelters, one inebriate home, and eleven elevators or factories, the total number of social institutions being 205. In connection with them 915 officers were employed. A large num? ber of off oers, lasses, lived in the slums to do the slam work?"angels" the peo? ple called them, and so they were. More were wanted. In connection with the rescue work, 1,484 lost creatures were rfcfdvod up to last Christmas, and 972 since?nine hundred and seventy-two >;ir!?. -mm ?

A Barefooted Boy, Tbe indignation of the passengers on a Western Maryland Railroad train was somewhat unnecessarily excited near Baltimore on SuDday morning, accord? ing to the Baltimcre Amtrisan, by the unusual spectacle of a richly clad boy of 5 or 6 years, whose legs and feet were perfectly bare, although the winter morning was a cold one. The child was accompanied by his mother and sister, both of whom were richly dressed, and the sudden conclusion was formed by tbe passengers that tbe family had spent so much money in wraps, dresses and coverings for tbe bodies and shoulders of tbe elders that nothing had been left wherewith to provide a protection from the inclemency of the weather for tbe boy's extremities. The appearance and conduct of tbe three, which indicated culture, wealth and, on the part of tbe mother, parental solicitude for the welfare of her <>ff spring, and on the part of tbe boy per feet content and comfort, an apparent obliviou?nec<s to the fact that bis feet and ans]es were bare, hardly seemed to accord with the hastily formed suspicion of tbe curious spectators On inquiry it wa<? ascertained thai the boy was the bou of a prominent physician, Who bad lost Ode child after another with throat dis? eases until he hit upon the idea of turn? ing his children out barefooted as chil dreo went before slockings and shoes, which retain the moisture of the foot and the moisture of the ground, were invent? ed. The physician's experiment prov? ed to be a perfect uuccess. The barefoot? ed boy was the picture of health. At Union Station ke ran up the cold boards and ice oovered planks laughing and singing and tetally unaware of any dis? comfort. By adopting tbe barefoot method the Maryland physician has suc? ceeded in raising a family of healthy boys and girls. Winter and summer his children of both sexes have gone shoeless and stockenless. People look oo with curiosity and amazement, but the doctor is perfectly satisfied with tbe results. Indian mothers made their babies hardy by plunging, them in the ice cov? ered streams. Physicians of to day say that the best remedy for cold feet is to plunge thenftt- into cold water. The warmth, comfort and exhilaration which come from the attraction of tbe blood to the extremities exceed any physical de? light to be extracted from toasting one's toes at tbe open fire, the register or the steam radiator. It seems to be mother nature's way of teaching us that we must endure before we enjoy and that tbe greatest joy comes through endur? ance. mm I mm? At (he Supreme Moment, Some men seem to have a genius for statistics, and wish to reduce everything to tabular form. Such an one has re? cently come to light in San Francisco, and he has, after reading several hun? dred novels, given us the oenefit of his researches as to how men and women be? have at that critical point when a man pays a woman the compliment of asking her to share his burial lot with him, as well as the time intervening before that uninteresting event. S?me fallacies are exposed, the princi? pal one being that the ladies do not promise to be a sister to the rejected one oftener than seventeen times out of fifty, while she promises to be a friend twenty six times in the same number. Now, as to the gentleman's behavior, decidedly the popular thing is for him to declare that he cannot live without the woman in question, and in sixty seven cases in a hundred he kisses her on the lips, seventy-two times he holds her hands very tightly, and sixty-three times he begins "all of a sudden." The least popular thing for him to do Is to kiss the woman on the head, on tbe nose by mis take, or on the shawl. He usually sits apon a chair or sofa, three times he re? clines on the grass, four times he goes on oae knee, and twice he goet> on two knees, so that the kneeling business is pretty well evened up. The popular thing for the lady, in case of an acceptance, is to sink into the arms of the gentleman, and this she does 81 times out of 100, and in eighty-seven cases she knows that something is com? ing. Seventy-two time she has eyes fall of love, and sixty-eight times she rests her head upon tbe gentleman's breast. Only four times is she taken by surprise, and six times she weeps silently for joy. Once she sneezes, once she struggles not to be kissed, and once she says, "Don't he a fool." "In case of rejection it is evidently the proper thing for tbe gentleman to rush madly away, for be does this in thirty one cases in fifty. He declares that he will commit suicide but six times, once he says he will go to the devil, and thir? teen times he thinfks he will ge home. Oace be pounds a stone wall with his fist, once he pulls down his vest, and only once does be refuse to be prayed for, but be swears that life is of no value seventeem times.?Boston Home Journal. Loving Words. A loviug word is always a safe word. It may or it may not, be a helpful word to the one who hears it, but.it is sure to be a pleasant memory to the one who speaks it. Many a work spoken by us is fterward regretted; but no word of affectionate appreciation to which we have given utterance finds a plaee among our sadly remembered expressions. Looking back over our intercourse witb dear friend or fellow-worker, we may, indeed, regret that we were betrryed into harsh or unloving word of censure or criticism iu that intercourse; and we may wish vainly that we bad now the privilege of saying all the loving words that we might honestly have spoken while he was yet with us. But there will never come into our hearts at such time a single pang of regret over any word of impulsive or deliberate affection which passed our lips any time. We hav; reason to be on our guard in our speech in most directions; but we can be fearlessly free in our loving utteran? ces. Apart from any question of the good we do to others by cur words of love, we are personally the gainers, for now and for hereafter, by every Buch word which we speak out implicitly, and we are sure to be tbe losers, now and by d by, from every such word which we ought to have spoken and failed to speak.?Sunday School Times. ? Wife: Tem, you act bo strangely; were you held up on tbe way home? Tom : N d o (hie,) my dear; I swore off and, an' (hie) I walked (hie) home llko a (hie) gentlemen without any (bic) one holdin' me up. Intensive Farming-, By request, says th& Eufaula Bulletin, we publish the following extract from a letter from Mr. Jno. H. Dent, formerly of this county, but now of Cave Spring, Ga., to Mr. B. B. Fields: "Last year I rented out my farm, ex? cept 30 acres, to a man in this neighbor? hood. He cultivated 100 acreB, I 30 acres ; I on the intensive system, he on tbe extensive; he ran five plows, I two, and I made more on 30 acres than be did on 110 ; in fact it. broke him. He had to sell all his muleB and crop, which did not pay him out of debt. We both worked a splendid set of hands; all white men and boys. He paid his hands fif? teen dollars per month and boarded them, and had to buy all bis corn, meat and bay. I paid ray hands a part of tbe crop, tbey boarded themselves, and I sell? ing tbem their provisions of my own raining. New you Bee the difference where one had to buy all the provisions he u*ed and pay money wages, and the other farmed on tbe share system and had not to pay anything out for food supplies. My bands and myself both did well at it. So you see the results of the two systems practically deraonstra ted. We both had the same quality of land and the same seasons. I manured my 30 acres with manure of my own making, out of my own lot, while he bought commercial manures for his 110 acres." The Rod and the Child. "Spare the rod and spoil tbe child, is the best idea, I tell you," said Judge Thomas to a New York ?mman. "Don't talk to me about persuading and reason? ing with children. The only thiog is im? plicit obedience, and tbe sooner you ex act it, the better for you and tbe child, too. Punish without temper, though. Never show your anger to your child. That's the trouble with most parents. They get into a passion themselves when they whip, and the child is quick to notice it, and soon beginB to resent it, and cherish it as a wrong. Do your whipping more in sorrow than anger. Unless you can do it in this way you had better not try it at all. Tbe worse whip? pings I ever got in my life were by my mother, who did it with tears in her eyes at my Bufferings, and a prayer after it, which took all the reseDtment out of my heart and made me feel that she was the greater sufferer. Oh I this latter day idea of not whipping children it tbe su preraest rot, and is doing great harm. If whipping can be avoided, all right; but if nothing else will do, lay it on with slipper or switch. The thing is to make them mind Begin the business early in life, too, for the longer it is put off the harder tbe task will become. What does a child know about the reason of things 7 Why attempt to reason with a little thing which is simply a bundle of no? tions, appetites and impulses, which must, for Its own irood, be restrained and directed ? Obedience is the prime edu? cation. I tell you more than three fourths of all the ugly lawlessness and crime which now afflicts this country comes from tbe lack of control in the family circle. Tbe disobedient, self willed, indulged child is sure to give uu happiness and trouble to his parents, and, after leaving them, to violate the laws of his country. No respect for au thority in a family circle means no re? spect for the governing powers of the State. This is all just as true as preaohing." A Radical Cure. The pa-tor of a church in a mining village was.greatly annoyed by the con duct of tbe younger members of the flock. When a young woman got tired of the evening sermon she would rise and go out. A moment later her "beau" would Beize bis hat and sheepishly follow her to escort her home. By the time the sermon was over it was mostly the old people who were left to hear the conclusion of it. At last he resolved to act. A youth grew sleepy and picking up his coat and hat and stepped into the aisle.- To his dismay the minister stop? ped short in his discourse. "Youog man," he said, "the lady who went out last is not tbe one you wish to eseort home. When she goes I will let you know. Sit down. In future when a young woman goes out I will call on the young man to take care of her." He resumed his sermon. There was much giggling and a great deal of wrath.

A writer in the New York Press says: "If millionaires could keep their property intact the interest on it would soon absorb the whole wealth of the country. A French banker, named Thelusson accumulated a fortune during the French revolution, and left a will providing that bis dessendants to the third geueratiou could net touch a dollar of it beyond a mere pittance. Tbe pria cipal was invested and the interest was to be annually reinvested until it should descend to ah heir of the third genera? tion when be had reached his majority, The property amounted originally to about three million dollars, and bad the will been allowed to stand some young man living ia France at the present date would now be inheriting its accumula? tions. These would have amounted to about three hundred million dollars, or a hundred times the original amount of tbe property left. If, on this same basis, Jay Gould's $100,000,000 could be left to George Gould's bahy's grandson, when that young roan celebrated his twenty first birthday he would be the possessor of $10,000,000,000, an amount impossible to conceive and large enough to'buy up the greatest goverbmeot on tbe face of the earth.

Some months ago during the presi? dential campaign, the New York Record? er offered to give $5 a week for life to the person who should guess nearest to Mr. Cleveland's popnlar vote in New York State, the said guess to be sent into the office on a ballot clipped from the paper. Over 3,000,000 guesses were sent in, and the lucky winner of the prize was Miss Emma Volker, of Elizabethport, N.J. Her winning guess was 654,907. The of? ficial vote, as certified to by the secretary of State, was 654,908. Miss Volker says that she dreamed the number. She is but 14, and the money is a godsend to the family, which is poor. ? Some far Western and Southwestern newspapers are seriously discussing the desirability and possibility of introduc? ing tho kangaroo into those regions. Much is urged as to its utility, because of its economic value in "flesh, fur and foot wear," and some little "about the novel sport it would afford, taking in this par? ticular the place of the defunct buffalo. It is said tbe kangaroo would do well In regions altogether unfit for other stock. Some say it would be more profitable to raise kangaroos than steers. Mr. Rob? ert C. Auld appears to have been first to suggest tbe scheme. Ostriches, be says, are a big success in California, and he thinks kangaroos would be more widely profitable. ? Forty years ago Moses Loeb, a young German foot-peddlor, wandered into Campbell county, Ga. He was stricken down with typhoid fever, but good peo? ple nursed bim and he recovered. Among those moct attentive was a daughter of Colonel Ben Camp, Miss Lizaie, who af? terwards married Dr. T. C. Glover, who was killed while in command of tbe twenty-first Georgia Regiment. Mrs. Glover has remained a widow since. A few days ago she reeeivad a check of $100 from New York, sent by Moses Loeb, in appreciation of her kindness to him years ago, when a stranger in a strange land. Tho money came in a time when it was a great help to the good-hearted widow. NEW WHEEL ! t THE DBAK*??SD | RAEtiBLSR Mo. 3* FITTED WITH THE CELEBRATED PNEUMATIC TIRES.
