Indigestion Causes Catarrh of the Stomach. For many years it has been supposed that Catarrh of the Stomach caused indigestion and dyspepsia, but the truth is exactly the opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Re peated attacks of indigestion inflames the mucous membranes lining the stomach and exposes the nerves of the stomach, thus caus ing the glands to secrete mucin instead of the juices of natural digestion. This is called Catarrh of the Stomach. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure relieves all inflammation of the mucous membranes lining the stomach, protects the nerves, and cures bad breath, sour risings, a sense of fullness after eating, indigestion, dyspepsia and all stomach troubles.

All do notsuffer alike. Some are suddenly seized with the most excrucia ting pains, and it seems every muscle and joint in the body was being torn asunder. Others feel only occasional slight pains for weeks or months, when a sudden change in the weather or exposure to damp, chilly winds or night air brings on a fierce attack, lasting for days perhaps, and leaving the pa tient with a weakened constitution or crippled and deformed for all time. An acid, polluted condition of the blood is the cause of every form and variety of Rheumatism, Muscular, Articular, Acute, Chronic, Inflammatory and Sciatic, and the blood must be purged and purified before there is an end to your aches and pains. External applications, the use of liniments and plasters, do much toward temporary relief, but such treatment does not reach the real cause orcleanse the diseased blood ; but S. S. S., the greatest of all blood purifiers and tonics, does cure Rheumatism by antidoting and neutraliz ing the poisonous acids and building up the weak and sluggish blood.* It is safe and reliable in all forms of Rheumatism.

FAMOUS GEORGIAN'S CHOICE Historian Thomas Watson Name' His Candidate For President. Thomas E. Watson, the historian, 1 who represented a Georgia district it congress, but has retired to private life, in an open letter sets forth rea sons why, if in public life, he would support Congressman William Ran dolph Hearst for the presidency. Mr. Watson's letter follows: "Were I in polities I should heartily approve and support the candidacy 01 William R. Hearst because he has for many years been exerting all the pow er of his millions and his mental en ergies in favor of the principles of Jef fersonian Democracy. "I would support Mr. Hearst because he is a young leader inspired by the old spirit of equal rights to all and special privileges to none, because he favors the rights of the many rather than the greed of the few, because he does not represent sectionalism of any sort, but stands for the common people of the entire republic. I would suppor him because he is young enough t< cherish a generous enthusiasm of the public good at the same time that hi has demonstrated a capacity to succeed in the most trying affairs of practical life. "I would support him because he wears no man's collar and because he is not the craven tool of any ring, syn dicate, corporation, trust or interest. "I would support him because he has brains enough to realize what this pub lic needs and pluck enough to do battle for his convictions. "A Democrat who knows what De mocracy is and is loyal enough to stand by it in this day of decadence, I would give him the aid of my entire strength believing that I would thus be doing the highest public service." In commenting on the above utter ance the Atlanta News says in the same issue: "The I-Ion. Thomas E. Watson is no longer a politician. NC temptation of office, no plea of the public, has been sufficient to draw hin from his brilliant and honorable re tirement to engage In the personal am bitions of politics. He has made fame He has achieved fortune by his brains and his labor, and he is today by gen eral consent looked upon as without a superior among the thinkers and pa triots of the state. But whether in re tirement or in active service, Thomas Watson is still the great tribune of the common people of Georgia. They trus1 him and follow him as they do no oth er man. And Tom Watson, tb 3 philos opher, the scholar in politics, the pa triot in retirement, viewing all meas ures and all men from the tranquillity of unselfishness and repose, sends through the News a message to the people of Georgia today which rings like a bugle call. It is the voice of the real tribune of the people calling the people to their opportunity. "Tom Watson's letter is the most nota ble and significant utterance which the presidential campaign has so fai evoked. It is the highest possible yin dication of the contention of the News that Hearst is the man of the people and the choice of the people. It not remains to see that the people havE their choice." A COMIC TRAGEDY. The Audience Was Ready, but thE Show Was Tangled UP. John Banvard, who afterward be came famous as the painter of a grea panorama of Mississippi scenery, se out in his boyhood, in the early thir ties, to travel down the "Great Water' in a flatboat with a number of compan ions. They built their boat on the Wa bash and were to pay their way hI exhibiting dioramic views in the cabi at landings. Unfortunately the can delights were not then shininh through the sycamores along the Wa bash, and before the adventurers reach ed a settled region they ran out of pro visions. In the woods they could fini nothing but papaws, luscious at first but quickly cloying. For two days, wrote the sixteen year-old Banvard, we had nothinl whatever to eat but those awful pa paws. The very sight or memory 0: one made me shudder. Then, on a joy ful, sunny afternoon, we approachec Shawneetown, Ill., on the Ohio river where we were advertised to exhibit As we came in we could see on th4 bank a crowd of people. Some car red chickens, some eggs, some yams some potatoes, some "side meat" (ha con) and some cornmeal. Our dinne: was in sight, for all those things wer4 intended as payment for admission a the door, and all were "good." Our stomachs hungered, and ou: mouths watered for the, feast; but alas, we were too eager! Working ou: boat toward land, we ran upon a ree: and stuck fast. Every etfort to- set ut freefailed. Darkness came on, and be fore our eyes our "house" disbandec and went home, carrying our suppe: with them. Discouraged and forlorn, we turnec to our bag of papaws for what conso lation we could find and then went t< sleep. In the night we floated free anc at daylight were in the woods agaix eight miles below those luscious pro visions. That was one of the mos awful tragedies of my life.-Youth' Companion. A Neat Retort. Dean Farrar soon after he went ti St. Margaret's, Westminster, was din ing at Professor Jowett's and towar< dessert took up the parable agains Dives. His voice rose higher an< higher, he spread silence around him and he wvas heard thundering out "What I complain of as a clergymai is that I have to do what no laymal has to do. I have to beg and beg ii Ivain. Fashionable ladies come to m: church glittering with precious gems and yet they will not sacrifice one dia mond from their grand tiaras in orde: to save some erring sister from de struction." When he finished the si lence grew sultry. All the hearer looked gloomily at their plates.

Its Origin Dates From the Assassina tion of King Edward. The remote origin of the loving cup dates from the story of the assassina tion of Edward, king and martyr, who was stabbed in the back while drink ing. It had been usual at feasts to pass round a large cup, which each, as he rose to drink, lifted with both' hands, exposing his body to attack. This custom was altered, so that when one stood up to drink he who sat next became his "pledge" and also rose, drawn sword in hand, to protect him. This practice in a modified form con tinued long after changed conditions of society had ceased to need it and was the origin of our custom of drink ing healths and particularly of the ceremonial, preserved in almost Its primitive form, of passing round the loving cup, when, as each person rises and takes the cup in his hand to drink, the guest next to him also rises and grasps the second handle. Some authorities ascribe its origin to Margaret, consort of Malcolm, king of Scotland, and others to Henry of Navarre.-London Truth. Marriage In the Isles of Greece. In Kaso, one of the most southern Islands of Greece, the parents upon both sidetake upon themselves all the responsibilities of courtship and mar riage. Courtship, as we understand it, is not in any way permitted to the be trothed couple. No moonlight walks or tete-a-tetes are allowed. Such a course would be deemed highly reprehensible, and all wooing, if there be any, must take place in the presence of the eld ers. But there is no great time for re pining at these decrees of custom, for the marriage follows the offer as quickly as may be. Enjoy Advantages. "Mammy." said Pickaninny Jim, "what does ghos'es want to come back to dis yearth foh?" "Dat's a foolish question. Dey kin go whahebber dey wants wifout payin' no house rent nor cah fare, an' nobody can't shet 'em out. Sometimes I reck ons dat ghos'es is de only folks dat re'ly enjoys life."-Washington Star.
