Phenix City, Ala., December 15.— Gents: After suffering for twenty years with my kidneys, and finding only tempo rary relief after taking various remedies and consulting some of the most noted physicians in the country, at a cost of hundreds of dollars for no good, I decided to try Col. M. T. Lynn’s Good Red Liquor, and I must confess that I suffer no pain whatever from my kidneys now, and am feeling better in every respect than I have for years, and I attribute it all to the two two barrels of G. R. L. that I have been taking daily, and I would advise all who suffer in the least with kidney or bladder troubles to give it a trial. The above medicine is only for gentlemen, but the Colonel has plenty of the nicest wines that yon“may take home for your family. He also has plenty of rum, that makes the ladies hum, and cooks eggs so nicely for your Christmas eggnog. See him, and re member my testimonial in reference to his Good Red Liquor. Yours respectfully, G. W. Z. Jacombine. GIRARD. There will be no services at the Baptist church today.

Do You Kuow How it Feels? Rheumatism. Everyone has heard the word. “How’s your Mother ?” “Oil, she’s well except her rheumatism.” How care lessly the answer is given. Do you know how it feels to have rheumatism ? Oh, its terrible, the swelling and the excrutiating pain of ankle, knee, elbow and shoulder, just as if each point was a bundle of irri tated nerves, each one seemingly bent on giving more pain than the other. Laying awake all night longing for daylight, aching too severely to sleep, applying lin iment every half hour to temporarily re lieve the agony. Praying, cursing, turning, twisting, but no ease, no comfort. What is it that causes rheumatism? Ah, there are a thousand causes. What is it that cures rheumatism? Thank God, there is at last one cure. It is called B. B. B., or Botanic B ood Balm. It has cured more cases of rh 'umatisin than any other known remedy. Try it. Do not suffer longer. J. H. Laing, Dawson, Ga., writes: “I suffered with rheumatism in my shoulders and general debility, Five bottles B. B. I?, improved my health and the rheumatism left me.” J. P. Davis, Atlanta, Ga., (West End) writes: “I consider that B. B. B. has per manently cured me of rheumatism and sciatica.” Jacob F. Spencier, Newnan, Ga., writes: “B. B. B. entirely cured me of rheumatism in mv shoulders. I used six bottles.” THE ANNUAL SESSION—SOMETHING IN TERESTING ABOUT THE CONFERENCE. Macon, Ga., December 20.—[Special. You have had notes from the Conference for the past several days. This is a large body of earnest, Christian men. It has been growing rapidly for the past twenty years. The many railroads have devel oped what is known as the wire-grass sec tion, and many new charges have Deen formed in them. One presiding elder has twenty circuits and missions in his district The personel of the conference is fine, Bishop Haygood, well known in Georgia, presides with great simplicity, and dis patches business rapidly and pleasantly He is short of statue, and a good layman said in the writer’s hearing, “Haygood gets smaller in body and bigger head every time I see him.” By the way, the bishop’s first charge was in Girard, across your riyer. Rapidly he passed from sta tion to district and then to conventional work. He has been Sunday school secre tary, president of Emory College, editor of the Wesleyan Christian Advocate, agent of the State fund. He has been elected twice a bishop, declining the first time in the in terest of the educational work of the church. At the last general conference he was elected by the largest majority ever given a bishop. He is a fine thinker— broad, independent, clear. As a preacher his style is crisp and incisive, with some imagination and pathos. He is very ac cessible to the people and preachers—one able to dispense with the solemn tunes and airs much needed to impress the greatness of some men on the people. The South Georgia Conference has many able preachers. The three ablest among the older men of the conference are Rev. Drs. J. W. Hinton, a profound Christian philosopher, J. O. A. Clarke, one of the abiest exponents of the Bible in the Meth odist convention, and J. O. Branch, a beautiful thinker, who prepares and preaches his sermons with great care. Two other men well known in Colum bus are very efficient members of the body. They are systematic in their habits, clear in judgment, and express themselves forci bly on the various questions that come up. They are George G. N. MacDonell and A. M. Wynn. For thirty-six years Mr. Mac Donell lias been on the mission board of the conference, and watches with gmat interest everything that affects that great cause. Mr. Wynn has always been the friend of the orphan, aud is the able presi dent of that board. Among the younger preachers of note are Rev. M. F. McCook, a fine pulpit man; Rev. B. Anthony, a fresh, vigorous talker; Rev. G. W. Matthews, an earnest worker and affable gentleman. Several distinguished men have just come into the conference by transfer. Rev. Dr. McFerrin, from Chattanooga, is a tall gen tleman, clean face, and gentle blue eye. His manner is magnetic, and he is repre sented as a very eloquent preacher. He is in great demand. Rev. C. E. Domnan, rather thick set, dark complexion, piercing black eye, is a fine scholar and represented as a logical preadher. Rev. A. J. Jarrell has visited Columbus often. He is quite an able man, has a quick nervous style: is apt and pointed in his illustrations. There are few sleepers in his congregation. Rev. J. B. Johnston, last year stationed at Barnesville, is a No. 1 man. He pre pares his sermons carefully, and is heard with pleasure by all. Rev. John A. Thompson comes to us from Anniston, Ala. He is tall, has a fair complexion and a sprightly air. The South Georgia Conference is well manned for the next year’s work. We have had several distinguished visi tors. Dr. Candler is one little giant. He is making a successful effort to draw a large endowment for Emory. He speaks with vigor, and his illustrations are argu ments of great force. Dr. Morris, of Ken- tucky, was with us a few days, aud made a Tennessee 8s lot 1 fine impression on the body by his careful study of the great principles underlyia HOLIDAY GOODS' Christmas comes but once a year, therefore make happy the hearts of those you love and esteem merated a list of articles suitable for presents, in stock at SCHOMBURG’S JEWELRY STORE.
