Advantages of Imperfect Health.
Perfect health, while conducive to
mental serenity and soundness, has not
been shown to promote or produce de-
cided activity of intellect. The abso-
lutely healthy man is more likely to ex-
cel in the baseball field, more apt to de-
velop into a being whose extreme type
of animal perfection is found in a Sulli-
van, than to become a Humboldt or a
Herschel. Perfect brawn has not been
shown to lead to gifted brains. The man
whose body is a perfect machine, an-
swering to all demands upon it, con-
ferring the keenest pleasures in life upon
its possessor, is the man to win fame in
fields where mere brain work is not ■ the
desideratum. He will be foremost to
launch new enterprises and in opera-
tions demanding risk, bodily exertions,
physical strain. These he will do be-
cause therein he finds a safety valve for
his surplus vitality. He could not en-
dure the sedentary life which the close
student or the successful merchant finds
absolutely necessary for the conduct of
his professional or business duties.
But, on the other hand, the man whose
erratic liver or complaining stomach re-
minds him of the shortness and uncer-
tainty of things mundane, will be the
prudent, thoughtful, calculating and
generally successful business man. The
man whose imperfection of bodily health
gives him no hope of enjoying life as he
otherwise would, will, according to the
divine law of compensation, find, in the
exercise of his mental faculties, what his
healthy brethren find in pleasures of the
senses. If his tastes lie in the line of
money getting, his admonishing liver or
stomach help to make him shrewd, close,
calculating and prudent; make him look
ahead and prepare for reverses and the
ill fortune that he cannot banish from
his mind as the almost inevitable end of
the battle of life. Obeying his inward
monitors, he will assume no risks—
where the healthy man would court such
in the fullness of his self confidence—
and so the chronic vfctim of a disordered
body will achieve success in business,
and, though at no time a brilliant man,
will not end his days in poverty. So,
too, will the intellectually active man,
abandoning hope of perfect physical
health, achieve fame and distinction in
fields of thought. There is much to be
said in favor of the advantages of imper-
fect health.—Pittsburg Bulletin.
Couldn’t agree: He—“Will you be a
sister tome?” She—“No; but I will be
your wife, darling.” He —“That is not
what I want, dear, unless you will take
advantage of the chance offered by
Bridgeford & Co. of purchasing cooking
stoves and house furnishing hardware at
wholesale prices.” q

At a .French Social Gathering.
Take a large French family reunion.
Few social pictures are prettier. There
is very likely an entire absence of that
hearty familiarity which characterizes
our Thanksgiving or Christmas gather-
ings. The children do not romp, the
grown people do not appear as if at last
the moment had come when all outward
restraint and formality could be thrown
aside with a clear conscience. The vis-
itors do not “make themselves perfectly
at home,” the hosts do not invite them to
do so, or treat them as if such were the
case. There is everywhere perfectly ap-
parent the French veneer of artificial
courtesy. Children are treated with po-
liteness and not hugged; babies are ban-
ished—are generally, in fact, in a state
of chronic exile; if at times every one
is talking at once it is evidently be-
cause of the social desire to contribute
to the conversation, rather than because
of the unsocial disposition to neglect
one’s neighbor’s appreciations—an abys-
mal difference in itself; there are no un-
comfortable silences passed in simply
“sitting round” and cudgeling one’s
brains as to what to do next; the great
art and enjoyment of social life be-
ing conversation—exchange of ideas, or
notions, original or trite, but always cast
in more or less careful form—games are
far seldomer than among us resorted to
as a substitute, and being invariably for
money probably owe their popularity to
the ingrained French disposition toward
avarice; an avarice which always seems
curious to, us, but about which in its
milder manifestations there is never any
concealment.
Games themselves are never conducted
in silence. The solemn stillness that
with us accompanies the rubber of whist,
which is more arid more tending to be-
come, even as played by the young and
frivolous, a tremendously serious thing,
and which indicates clearly that the
game is an end in itself and not a
pastime, is unknown outside the clubs in
France. An occasional old gentleman
who, when the stakes are high, insists on
a subordination of talk and vigorously
represses his partner’s tendency to dis-
cursiveness, is voted a nuisance.—W. C.
Brownell in Scribner’s Magazine.
Merit Wins.
We desire to say to our citizens, that
for years we have been selling Dr. King’s
New Discovery for Consumption, Dr.
King’s New Life Pills, Bucklen’s
Arnica Salve and Electric Bitters, and
have never handled remedies that sell as
well, or that have given such universal
satisfaction. We do not hesitate to
guarantee them every time, and we stand
ready to refund the purchase price if
satisfactory results do not follow their
use. These remedies have won their
great popularity purely on their merits.

A Fine Taste in Tea.
Mr. Guy Maine, the Chinese lecturer,
related the following instance in regard
to Chinese tea drinking the other even-
ing to a reporter. He said that when he
was a boy about 11 years old he lived
with his father, who was a little near
sighted, in a cottage in the southern part
of China. One day he was cleaning out
his father’s tea kettle and could not get
all the tea leaves out, so he put his hand
in the kettle. About a half hour after-
ward his father called for his tea, which
Guy took to him and returned to
work. Shortly the old gentleman called
him again and asked him if he did not
tell him never to put his hand in the tea
kettle.
“Well,” said Guy, “I did not know
whether my father was peeking through
the keyhole watching me or not. So I
let three weeks pass when I knew my
father was out on business, and I again
put my hand in the tea kettle. That
evening I was called to answer the ques-
tion which was asked me several weeks
bofore. But you can rest assured from
that time to this I have never put my
hand in any tea kettle.”—New York
Evening Sim.

■Remains of a Scythian King
In the same building where the relics
of Peter the Great are preserved, can be
found the sarcophagus of a monarch in-
terred more than 2,000 years previously.
Among all the treasures of the Hermitage
there is none more valuable than the so
called Kertch collection. On the shore
of the Black sea, 600 years before Christ,
the Greeks founded colonies, which,
uniting with the native Scythians, were
usually under Scythian rulers. Without
the gates of the modern town of Kertch
long rows of tombs and mounds exist,
which of late years have been carefully
examined by the Russian government,
and the objects found there, remains of
the former Grecian colonies, have been
preserved in St. Petersburg, forming the
richest collection of the kind in the
world. In 1831 a mound was opened
called by the Tartars “The Hillock of
the Brave,” and in a room of hewn
stone the remains of a Scythian king
were found, together with his wife, his
war horse and servant. His golden
crown and ornaments were there un-
touched. Even the sarcophagus of
carved cypress wood in which his body
was laid, remains undecayed; and the
carving and gilt figures upon it are still
sharp and beautiful. It seems incredible
that a substance so frail should have en-
dured for more than 2,000 years unin-
jured. The gold bars of his shield, the
silver staves of his heralds, the collar of
twisted gold wire are to be seen here,
beside many other articles found in his
tomb, although * large number were
stolen at the time of the discovery.
But still more interesting and beauti-
ful were the contents of a tomb discov-
ered in 1866 of a priestess of Ceres, with
all her rich ornaments, and these were
all preserved. Most exquisite they are;
the gold chains, buttons, bracelets, neck-
laces, equal the best workmanship of
Venice or Florence at the present day.
The golden plates from her headdress
are of repousse work of perfect beauty.

Mind and Body Suffer.
Probably there are no other people so
peculiarly liable to dyspeptic troubles as
Americans. They are notoriously erratic,
■ , not only in their habits of eating, but in
‘ A lady friend of mine other ways of living. They are always
h biimns anrl nimr>ioa «« “On the jump.” Personal convenience
and welfare are among the minor con-
siderations; there is always some other
to take precedence. To acquire wealth
is the one aim of many, but not all.
Some have a noble purpose in life—to
win in the art, the literary, the scientific,
or the political world, places which can-
not be easily filled when they are gone.
But ambition is singularly the character-
istic of all. None seem satisfied with the
present; all cherish fond hopes of the
future. Nor is this passion as a rule
moderate in intensity, wisely regulated
and limited to a healthy stimulus. Many
feel its full tenacity and power, and all
other promptings are held in chock by it.
Again, it is too often ill directed, and
when it is, mind and body inevitably
suffer. In a word, Americans are a rest-
less people, possessed by that constant
and weai’ing anxiety to “better” their
condition. The more they acquire, the
more they want.—Boston Herald.

When a hundred bottles of sarsaparilla
or other pretentious specifics fail to eradi-
cate in-born scrofula or contagious blood
poison, remember that B. B. B. (Botanic
Blood Balm) has gained many thousand
victories in as many seemingly incurable
instances. Send to the Blood Balm Co.,
Atlanta, Ga., for “Book of Wonders,”
and be convinced. It is tbe only true
BLOOD PURIFIER.
G. W. Messrs. Howell’s X Roads, Ga.,
writes: “I was afflicted for nine years
with sores. All the medicine I could
take did me no good. I then tried B. B.
B., and 8 bottles cured me sound.”
Mrs. S. M. Wilson, Round Mountain,
Texas, writes: - -
was covered with bumps and pimples on
her face and neck. She took three bot-
tles of B. B. B., and her skin got soft
and smooth, pimples disappeared, and
health improved greatly.”
Jas. L. Bosworth, Atlanta, Ga., writes:
“Some years ago I contracted blood poi-
son. I had no appetite, my digestion
was ruined, rheumatism drew up my
limbs so I could hardly walk, my throat
was cauderized five times. Hot Springs
gave me no benefit, and my life was one
of torture until I gave B. B. B. a trial,
and surprising as it may seem, the use of
five bottles cured me.”
We do hereby certify that we supervise the ar-
rengements for all the Monthly and Quarterly Draw-
ings of the Louisiana State Lotterj Company, and
m person manage and control the Drawings them-
selves, and that the same are conducted with hon-
esty, fairness and in good faith towards all parties
and we authorize the company to use this certificate

J. A. EARLY. f Commissioners.
To an aged clergyman, Francis Smith,
now residing at Newtown, Massachusetts,
is due the honor of having composed the
national hymn, “My Country, ’Tis of
Thee,” which was first performed at a
children’s celebration in the Park street
church, Boston, July 4, 1832. and has
superseded all other ; atriotic hymns in
the frequency with which it is sung. The
music used with it is that of the national
anthem of the United Kingdom of Great
", “God Save the
King,” the composer of which is un-
known.
Dr. Smith was born 1n 1808, at Boston,
where he attended the Latin school pre-
paratory to entering Harvard college. He
was graduated when about twenty-one
years old and entered the Andover theo-
logical seminary. While a student at this
institution he wrote the hymn which im-
mortalized him. The well known verses
beginning “The morning light is break-
ing” were also written by him while a
student at Andover. He graduated in
theology in the year 1832, and two years
a ter was ordained to the ministry of the
Baptist church at Waterville, Maine. He
remained there eight years, when he be-
came pastor at Newton. His pastorate
at this place lasted twelve years, and
while a resident there he was professor of
modern languages in Waterville college,
now known as Colby university. Dr.
Smith edited for a "time the Christian
Review, published in Boston, and other
publications of the Baptist Missionary
Union. His latest conspicuous services
to the missionary movement were in 1875-
76 and 1882-83, when he visited the chief
stations in Europe and Asia He has
oeen an exceedingly industrious student,
translator and writer, and is the author
of many hymns and Several books, the
chief of which area life of the Rev. Jo-
seph Grafton and a history of Newton,
the place of most of his literary activi-
ties. Mr. Smith and Oliver Wendell
Holmes were classmates at Harvard and
maintain the acquaintance formed sixty
years ago.

monotonous, in relation to the food eaten
by these old people. The diet has been
regular New England home dishes of
meat, vegetables, and pastry, with
breakfast early, dinner at noon, and sup-
per late. Very few are mentioned as
small eaters or large eaters; most are
mentioned as not particular, with good
appetites through life. A half dozen
never eat meat, and two have abstained
from water. More than two-thirds have
been habitual users of tea and coffee,
and of the remainder nearly all have
drunk tea. Few of the men, and none
of the women, are given as users of more
intoxicating beverages than cider, and
not a dozen out of all have ever used
liquors to excess. Ten of the women are
mentioned as habitual smokers, and a
score as snuff takers. Of the men, a
large majority have used tobacco—either
chewing, smoking, or both. Most of the
tobacco users have been moderate, al-
though numbers of cases are given where
the amount consumed is enormous, and
continued constantly up to the time
when the census was taken. A few
broke away from the habit after it had
lasted for twenty, thirty or fifty years,
and have now been without the narcotic
for perhaps a decade or more.
The record of sickness is so varied that
scarcely half a dozen cases are alike out
of the whole long fist, except where there
has been no illness other than the usual
complaints of infancy. Out of 1,049
men, 382 never were ill since early child-
hood; and of 880 women, 286. have en-
joyed the same good health. One hun-
dred and fourteen men and 171 women
have had petty diseases only, and 495
men and 402 women have been seriously
ill. The serious illness of the majority
was a fever of some sort, typhoid head-
ing the list.—Clement M. Hammond in
Popular Science Monthly.
