"There’s a chiel among ye tnkin’ notes'
And faith bo’ll prent ’em.”
The charming Miss Vurnon is visit
ing her friends in Cave Spring.
Old Pegging-awl Parrish is trying
to look pretty. \\ o know he is, ’cause
he cut his whiskers off.
Au advertisement of the Atlanta
Constitution, one of the best papers
in Georgia, will appear in our next.
Mr.W. C. Knight bought a cow last
week, <uul didn’t keep her in his yard
but a little while before that cow took
a fool notion and lay down and died.
Capt. A G. West left last week to
attend the funeral services of his futfi-
er-iu-law, Mr. Browning, who died in
New Yolk a few days since.
Young man, go to the candy jork-
ing to-night; take your duleirm, pay
yonr quarter, and help build a house
for tier preacher to live in.
When a man spends a half hour
tiying to bridle the wrong end of his
horse, put him down ns 'iigiu the local
option.'
Many of our boys are sighing to
day, wishing for n certain yoting lady
to come back. Don’t cry, boys, hIh 'll
be buck in a week or two.

Mi. V. m. lb ge, of our county, hud
his 1( g amputated above the knee,
about six weeks ago. We wire
pleased to see him in town last Fri
day, his leg about well. Dr. Batley,
of Borne, performed the operatiou.
A letter was received hero this
week by some of our merchants, from
W. H. Adkins, manager of the West
ern Union Telegraph Company, at
Romo, making propositions to run a
wire from Tecmnseh to our town, at
a cost of about four hundred dollars,
to bo paid by our citizens. Ilo also
proposes to furnish an operator at a
cost of not over thirty-five dollars a
mouth, with the understanding that
ho is to learn any ono young man
or ludy to oporato the machine. A
telegraph office would bo quite a con
venience to our business men, espec
ially in the cotton season; but
whether they will consider it of suffi
cient importance to justify tho outlay
at present, wo are unablo to say.
We announced last week that thu
Cherokee Iron Compuo’s furnace was
in full blast. They had made up to
noon yesterday—just oue week from
tho time tho match was applied—
about one hundred and twenty-five
tons of A No. 1 Foui.drv Iron—can’t
bo excelled in the Uuited States, We
trust tho Company may find ready
sale, at remunerative prices, for all
the iron they can manufacture, and
we believe nil good citizens will lu-
j lice at the success of the Company.
Will tho people of Polk county,
who are very “tender” on tho subject
of high taxes, expenses of tho legis-
isl ilure, a coubtilutiounl convention,
court expenses, jail fees, paying for
publishing grand jury presentments,
nuil all other expenses, continue to
pay, without a word of protest, $2 50
a square or levy for »S fieri if sales, and
the same rates for the Ordinary’s ad
vertising, when we propose to do it
FREE OF CHARGE. Wo wish to
give our leaders all llio county news,
and sheriff sales ami such will be
published by us hereafter as news.
Our people should rufiiso to pay for
such advertising in tin* future.
Tho finance eommi*.tee of our tow n
council, whose report will be found in
t.Lis paper, comuieud the marshal,
mayor and treasurer of last year, for
tne donation (?) of u portion of their
Ha I mies to the town, and recommend
that state uml county officers do hk •-
wise. We have donated (,?), in the
jiast two years, about six hundred
doll ill's in utivot Using, to the tax pay
ers of the county, him 1 piojiose to ioii-
tinue to donate tho M ime pinning, it
the officers whom the people have
elected to mi rvu them will allow ii.
Sheriff sales and all the Ordinarya
i dverlising done FREE in the J1 cord
Remember this, ye tux-burdened
people-—donb pay any more lii^li
charges for she benefit of “political
pets.” Tho laws of tlm State will not
force you to pay it when it can be
legally done for nothing. Don’t do it.
Cut this Out—it May Save Your
Mr©.
There is uo person living but what
suffers more or less with Lung Dis
ease, Coughs, Colds or consumption,
yet s<?mo would die rather than pay
75 cents for a bottlo of medicine
that would cure them. Doctor A.
Boshcheo’s German Syrup has late
ly been introduced in this country
from Germany, and its wouderous
cures astonishes every one that try it.
If you doubt what wo say in print,
cut this out and take it to your drug
gists, Bradford & Allen and get
a sample bottlo for 10 cents and try
it, or u regular sizo for 75 cents.

Too Fast One Time.—Brother Yur-

It is said that more guano will be
used by our farmers Ibis year than
lost. Air. Huntington has already
sold about oue hundred and fifty tons
and Nr. Wright ubout fifty
tons. We have not ascertained
how much has been sold at Prior s
and Rockmait and other places, but
we thiuk it sale to say that at least
four hundred tons will be used iu the
county. It will take u five hundred
pound bale of cotton to pay for a ton.
At ten cents per pound, the cotton
would bring $20,000.
Do the people of Folk county in
tend to puv three times n3 much for
legal advertising as has been custom
ary for the past two years, for no oth
er reason than that u “political put”
of some of the officers may be sup
ported from the heavy charges?
Rend communication of “Junius”
iu this paper, and then act upon tho
suggestion.
Do our county officers pay over to
their “political pot” all they collect
for legal advertising, or do they keep
a portion of it in order to “make
themselves safe ?”
'I'lie Conventions
Mr. Editor:—If we are to have i
convention, I know of no man more
suitable to represent Polk than Mi.
R. W. Everett. He is a man of sound,
honest mind, and thoroughly imbued
with a spirit of economy. Mora than
all, ho is terribly iu eurnest about all
he does, and here lies I lie ilifiic.il y
with most men wo elect to offi:-.
They are given to favoring economy
or measures for police-’h Hike, with
out the least earnestness or serious-
mss of intention, and swerve flow
duty for the sake of gftini; g
friends political. They hollow ’‘wolf!’’
till they get the necessary s; pport to
put them in office, and lo! when their
purpose is accomplished, they are
“cheek by jole” with the wolf, and
choke off their supporters wdh some
trilling subterfuge. We want a man
in tne convention who means what he
says, and will do it despite “big no-
tious” of big men so-called. A man
who has neither friend or foe, so i.n
as fav.r or uffeciiou is concerned, but
who is for right, f >r saving the peo
ple’s money and will do it. Such a
man is R. W. Everett. Sen d him.
Junius.

This standard article is compound
ed with the greatest care.
Its effects are as wonderful and as
satisfactory as ever.
It restores gray or faded hair to its
youthful color.
It removes all eruptions, itching
and dandruff. It gives the head a
cooling, soothing sensation of great
comfort, ’and the scalp by its use
becomes white and clean.
By its tonic properties it restores
the capillary glands to their normal
vigor, preventing baldness, and mik
ing the hair grow thick and strong.
As a dressing, nothing has been
found so effectual or desirable.
A. A. Hayes, M.D., State Assayer
of Massachusetts, says, “The con
stituents are pure, and carefully se
lected for excellent quality ; and J
consider it the Best Preparation
for its intended purposes.”

able shade, to in-own or black, nt dis

fectually produces a permanent color,
which will neither rub nor wash off.
