Among the Useful Toilet Articles. We notice a much-liked preparation for the hair, possessed of properties so remarkable that no one who cares to own a clean and healthy scalp with beautiful hair should pass it untried. Its properties are cleansing, invig orating aud healing, and after a few applica tions the hair ceases to fall. Dandruff and Humors disappear, and the hair grows clean, soft and silky. It keeps the head cool aud comfortable and gradually restores the hair if gray or faded to the natural and life-like color, beautiful to look upon. It is Parker’s Hftir Balsam that has won such popular apprecia tion by its many excellent and healthful prop erties. Sold in large bottles, at only 50 ctt. and SI.OO, by all first class druggists.

Kingston begins to breathe easy again since the g/eat distress caused by the rumor that two of our young men had been connected with the sad tragedy in Gordon county a short time since. Business is brisk; cotton booming. Over two thousand bales shipped from here to Rome alone. Cotton is bringing a good price, and our far mers are happy. All of them have some of the “dollars of our daddies,” —we judge in their pockets. Some improvement is going on. T. V. Hargis, who had his cotton gin burned a few weeks since, is, putting up a splendid building on the ruins of the oid one and will soon be ready to work apain. He has the pure vim about him—don’t believe in the old saying, “J can't.” Several small buildings going up, among them Bartow Harris, colored, has put up a store house,and lias now a small stock of Christmas tricks ready to tempt buyers. , J Through the the energy of Mrs. Piper we are adding another room to our house. Our place is healthy this season. Pleasant weather. Rev. J. J. Singleton has been as signed to this place by the conference of the M, E. church, South. He seems to be a very acceptable minis ter and the church and community are satisfied. We part reluctantly with Rev. Wm. F. Robison, who has been our pastor for two years. He goes to Conyers, and in a tew days, we will all have to bid him and his interesting family adieu, and trust they will be kindly received in his , new field of labor. 1 Peter Piper. -' . : Headquarters of Santa Claus. Christmas is coming and of course the little ones are quite jubilant over au expected visit from their friend Santa Claus. This mythical old gen tleman has established his headquar ters for Cartersville and vicinity at the store of H. M. Mountcastle& Cos., where he has displayed toys of every description, dolls, picture-books, and in fact everything which can be de sired to please the little ones. Young men will also find a large variety of novelties with which to make pres ents to their lady friends. Young ladies can find suitable articles for gentlemen friends., Children will be able to get something that is suitable for parents. In fact, all ages and classes can be accommodated with something appropriate for holiday presents. Remember the place: H. M. Mountcastle & Cos., West Main street, Look out for a big sensation next week. Municipal Election. The election for mayor and council of Cartersvillej took place Wednes day.

It instantly cures the most troublesome case of chills after all other remedies have failed. Its pleasantness and freedom from evil eymp tuous render it quite a favorite for children and females who cannot retain quinine. An other advantage is that you are not required td take any other mediciue, * because Daps Ague Tonic acts thoroughly upou the secretions— tones and builds up Che weak and feeble, en abling them to throw off the disease and to recuperate. t / FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER. ; WE are hereby authorized to announce the name of J. M. NEEL, a candidate for County Commissioner to fill vacancy occasion ed by the resignation of J. R. Brandon, Elec tion Dec. 22nd, 1879. Habitual Constipation. Drastic purgatives fall to relieve this troub lesome complaint, which now afflicts thous ands of males aud female* throughout the country. Strong medicines do more harm than good, and only tend to weaken the tone of the bowels and paralyze their action. Mild remedies only will core it, and for this pur pose nothing equals Bailey’s Saline Aperient. It is a pleasant and cooling purgative for the relief of constipation, biliousness, sick head ache, acid stomach, heartburn, dyspepsia, etc. It sells at 50 cents per bottle, and no family should be without it. —We were exposed last week to a pitiless storm, that wet onr Let aud stockings, and in* deed our person all-over. In fact we took a. cracking eold, whioh brought sore throat and severe symptoms of fever.

One Experience from Many. “I had been sick and miserable so long and had caused my husband so much trouble and expense, no one seemed to know what ailed me, that 1 was completely disheartened and discouraged. In this frame of mind I got a bottle of Hop Bitters and used them unknown to my family. I soon began to improve and gained so fast that my husband aqd family thought it strange and unnatural, but WfcNta I told them whnt had helped me, they said “Hurrah for Hop J3itters! long may they pros per, fpr they have made mother well and us happy.”—[The Mother. —No household is complete with out it.

During the coming year—a year that will witness the progress and culmination of the most interesting political contest that has ever taken place in this country—every citizen and every thoughtful person will be compelled to rely upon the newspapers lor information. Why not get the best? Abroad The Constitution is recognized, referred to and quoted from as the leading southern journal—as the organ and vehicle of the best southern thought and opin ion—and at home its columns are consulted for the latest news, the freshest comment, and for all matters of special and current ihtferest. The Constitution contains more and later tele graphic news than any other Georgia paper, and this particular leature will be largely added to during the coming year. All its facilities for gathering ihe latq*t news from all parts of the country will be enlarged and supplemented. The Constitution is both chroni cler and commentator. Its editorial opinions, its contributions to the dritt of current discus sion, its humorous and satirical paragraphs, are copied from one end of the country to tbe other. It aims always to be the brightest and the best—newsy, original ami piquant. It aims particularly to give the news impartially and fully, and to keep its readers informed of the drift of current discussion by liberal but con cise quotations from all its contemporaries. It aims, in short, to more than ever deserve to be known as “the leading southern newspaper.” Bill Arp will continue to contribute h?s unique I letters, which grow in savory humor week by | week. “Old 8i” will add his quaint fun to the ! collection of good things; and “Uncle Remus” has in preparation a series of negro myth legends, illustrating the folk-lore. oJ, the okl plantation. In every respect The Constitution, : for 1880 will he better than ever. ~ The Weekly Constitution is a carefully edited \ compendium of the news of the week and con tains the best andixesbest matter Jo be found in any other weekly irom a daily bfficte. Its news and miscellaneous contents are the iresh est and its market reports the latest. XUe SoutJieraCuJtiviitor.
