the “ little folks’’ for the lienefit of
the Methodist church, was in all re
spects a decided success, so much so,
that by universal drsire it was re-,
peated on Wednesday evening.
Space will not permit us to give as
extended a notice of the entei t: la
ment ns we would wish, but we can
not fail to notice and compliment the
recitation oflittle Blanche Lipscomb,
whose rendition of the “Maniac”
would have reflected credit upon older
heads. The character of “ Old King
Cole ’’ was well rendered and reflected
credit upon its youthful impersonator.
We congratulate all parties in the
success achieved. Especially do we
congratulate the “Old Woman in
the Shoe ” upon the neat and elegant
appearance of her innumerable off

Hpeelnl Notice.
Office Cle: k of Council,
Athens, Ga , April 24,1877.
Notice >> hereby given that the
Assessors of Real Estate have eom-
Col. John Maund’s Turkish
Bath.
The Columbus Enquirer lias the
following: He represented Talbot
county in the last session of the Leg
islature, and is known throughout this
State and almost over the entire Uni
ted States, esjiecially in railroad cir
cles, for he has a great deal of busi
ness with such men when he desires a
ride. Wlii'e sojourning in Atlanta
during the last Legislature, lie con
cluded that a Turkish bath would
prove beneficial to him, and doubt'
less he was correct. We have seen
men whom an ordinary bath would
help wonderfully.
Well, he entered the bath-room,
denuded himself and got in position.
The steam was shot on to him, in bis
eyes, nose, mouth and ears, and he
said that it was hot enough to scald
forty eggs, but he couldn’t speak a
d—n word, lie lost his breath and
was feeling as if lie was niching, when
suddenly he was shoved into a vat of
water that would have froze a polar
bear, and then be had no breath at
all. In the bottom of the pool was
large chunks of ice, and he was stand
ing upon them, thinking all of the
time that they were skeletons of men
who had been previously killed and
allowed to remain therein. This
frightened him still more, but lie was
pleted the assessments for the tear j | lt ,]|,] css . He was snatched from this
1877, and placed their hooks in my i water and thrown upon a marble
office.for examination by all eon- 1 :uu | steam was shot on him a

Good Advice.—Now is the time
of year for Pheumonia, Lung Fever,
Ac. Every family should have a
bottle of Bosciiee’s German Syrup.
Don’t allow for one moment that
cough to take hold of your child,
our family or yourself. Consunqi-
tion, Asthma, Pheumonia, Croup,
Hemorrhages, and other fatal diseases
may set in. Although it is true
German Syrup is curing thousands
of these dreaded diseases, yet it is
much better to have it at band when
three doses will cure yon. One Bot
tle will last your whole family a win

If you are consumptive, do not rest
until you have tried this remedy.
