There is a right and a wrong to everything, and, consequently, there is a right and wroog way to put on postage stamps.

Now this gum is by no means injurious, but the department do not advertise it as a health food so the only way left is the right way, and that is to moisten tbe envelope first."

Kansas City, 27 A special to the Times from Gallatin, dated yesterday says tbe day there has been a quiet one and marked only by discussion on the status of the Frank James case. The impression is general and growing that Dick Liddcll's testimony will proves clincher it corroborated in the majority of its details, and this the prosecution claim it is prepared to do. Liddell's story has been confirmed as lo the events in Tennessee by witnesses Irom that Slate, but the deduce will make strenuous efforts to break down bis testimonyt re-ceived a good many callers in Jail today. The belief is preity. general here lhat Frank James really intended giving up train robbing and was honest in seeking an honest livelihood near Nashville.

The capture of Bill Ryan, however, alarmed tbe entire gang and Jease undonbtedly persuaded Frank lo go hack to the old business. Hard luck at larming possibly also influenced him in this direction.

C. Clarke, the slate agent for Georgia of the Southern Mutual Life Insurance Company of Kentucky, has lived for many years past at Albany, and spent much of bis time on bis plantation in mat section. He said yesterday to a reporter: "I bad gradually absorbed mala ria in my system nntil my general health was completely broken down. This accumulation of malarial poison culminated last November in a CONGESTIVE CHILL, and I was confined to my bed more than two months, and it was two months more before 1 was able to get out ot tbe house was treated by physicians with all the approved methods, with only temporary relief, and took quantities of calomel and many other remedies with no benefit! My health was undermined and broken down my skin almost as yellow as a pumpkin a thick, beavy coat on my tongue had no appetite for anything, and what I eatl was forced, and not at all relished or enjoyed. In April last, while in Atlanta, I was induced to take Swift's Specific, but I bad no faith in anything but the first few doses convinced me that it was just what I needed.

I continued it until I had taken several bottles, and the change was as wonderful as it was gratifying. My skin has cleared up and my complexion is good; my appetite is excellent; I have gained twenty pounds in weight; the poison of the malaria has been driven out of my blood by Swift's Specific, and I am a healthy and strong man. 1 have ao hesitation in saying that, believe Swift's Specific to be the remedy for this malarial poison, and advise all like sufferers to take it." Malarial PotseaVBewer 4aa Potion Prom the Nashville American, Aug. 11, 1683. Mr.

Charles Newman, proprietor of the Senate Saloon; one of the most popular and best known men in Nashville, gives some interesting evidence regarding are- markanie cure oi a Kidney complaint which was tbe outgrowth of malarial poi son. He says: "Years ago, my whole system was poisoned through malaria; my bloodbecame Impure, and at last It settled on my kidneys, causing me great inconvenience and giving me a great deal ol pain. I tried all of the best -physicians, took every medicine I saw advertised; went to tbe Hot Springs twice all without avail nothing did me any good, and I continued to grow worse and suffer more. At last a wholesale druggist friend of mine pereuaded me to try Swift's Specific. After taking the first bottle I commenced growing better, and in six months was a well man.

Since then I have had no return ef the kidney trouble, and have improved in health and spiiils ever since I first commenced taking the three S's. My system is now as free Irom malaria as any man. 1 uetieve tne inree B's is me bcBt medicine ever made for malarial poison works better on tbe kidneys is the best blood purifier known is incomparable as health tonic. I can be found at any time at the Senate Salcon and will take pleasure in talking or corresponding with any one afflicted with kindey complaint or malarial poison." BlrmloKbam Items.
