Holloway's Pills. — Nothing better.— These invaluable Pills exert a greater and more beneficial influence over nervous disorders than any other medicine. Their mode of action is thoroughly consonant with reason — they completely purify the blood, relieve both head and stomach of aU faulty functions, and expel all oppressive accumulations from the bowels. With the blood purified, and all poisons purged from the system, regularity must prevail throughout the body. Aches and pains must cease ; healthful energy must supplant weariness, and the shaky nerves must regain their wholesome tone. A course of these Pills eradicates low spirits, nervous excitability, hysterics, neuralgic twitches, and other derangements dependent on nervous maladies, which every considerate person may thus certainly and safely temove. ■ 1899 Recently, at a missionary meeting of the negroes of one of the richest negro churches of this city, the following resolutions were passed unanimously : — l. Resolved, That we will give something. 2. Resolved, That we will give according to our ability. 3. Resolved, That we wili give williDgly. After the resolutions were read, approved, and passed, a leading negro took liis seat at the table, with- pen and ink, and put down what each came to contribute. Many advanced to the table and handed in their contributions, some more and some less. Among the contributors was an old negro who wag very rich — almost as rich as the rest united. He threw down a small bill. ' Take dat back again,' 6aid the chairman of the meeting. * Dat may be 'cordin' to de fust resolution, but not 'cordin' to de second.' The rich old man accordingly took it up, and hobbled back to his seat much enraged. One after another came forward, and all giving more thau^himself, he was ashamed, and again threw a larger bill on the table, saying, ' Dar, take dat.' It was a 20---dollar greenback, but it was given with so much ill-temper that the chairman answered, 'No, sar; dat won't do! Dat may be 'cordin' to de fust and second resolutions, but not 'cordin" to de third.' He was obliged to take it up again. Still angry with himself, the old rich negro eat a long time, until nearly all were gone, and then advanced to the table, and with a smile on his countenance, laid a large sum of money on the table. .' Dar, dat berry well,' said the presiding negro; 'datwill doj dat am 'cordin' to all ■ie resolutions.'*— Montgomery Mail.
