Book Notice.
Godky’s Lady's Book for July
opens its one hundred and thir
teenth volume, and is an especially
bright and handsome number.
The frontispiece, entitle “The
Wedding Day,” is the champion
picture to the one given in the
June number. It is a pretty sub
ject well rendered, and is made
more attractive by being the subject
of an origiual story from the pen
of the well-known author Augusta
De Bubna. Another pretty illus
tration, “The Old Story,” is a
quaint picture of cats, with a fas
cinating poem written by Mary E.
Bradley. The colored and black
fashion designs give innumerable
varieties of seaside and mountain
costumes “The Coronet of Thorns,”
by J V Pritchard, sustains its"'
brilliant plot as the story nears
completion. A bright tswrdation
from the German of E. Laddey.
entitled “Found—Not Sought,”
is to be concluded in the next
number. Avaiietyof good short
storios and poems complete a num
ber that shows decided improve
ment under the new management.
The subscription price to Godey’s
Lady’s Book is $2.00 a year, or
.00 tor the six remaining months
commencing with the July num
ber.

Reynolds Ga., June 19ih, 1886.
Mr. Editor-:—Among th'e long
list of candidates for the
various offices in the ensuing elec
tion, we would mention that of
representative, und we desire to
cail especial attention to some of
the reasons why the people are
going to give their suffer age to Mr.
R G Tomlin, for the honorable
position of representative of Taylor
county in the legislature. For a
long time he has been a citizen of
our county, fully identified with
her people and her interests, and
during th-se long years that, he has
been in our mid3t has established
lor himself the representation of be
ing an honest, upright and success
ful business man; in fact, he has
accomplished as much, perhaps
more, tor tho building up of the
interests and industries of his coun
ty as any other man in it. His
enterprising spirit has always been
felt in everything conductive to the
good of ihe psop’e Mr Tomlin com
mands the respect and est-em of
all who know him. His large bus-,
ineos experience em nenlly fits him
tor the placp, and should he be
sent he will soon gain the respect
and administration of his colleagues
and his influence ..will be known
and felt all over the Statu. Then
again, the old saying, “let the
office seek I he man,” has been
verified in this instance, for almost
with one accord the people have
ceniered on Mr. R. G. Tomlin for
representative.
We write this not because we
like his competitor the less, but
hecause we think it much more ap
propriate to send a man that is one
of us, one whose only ioteres’s are
here among us and one who givrs
us the full benefit of his success,
than to s-nd a man who is only in
the county for a time, whose inter
ests are ail in another county and
whose success benefits the people
of anot her section.
While we concede the right of
running for office to any man, we
thick the people would be do : ng
ihemselves, as well as Mr Tomlin,
a great injustice to take up a man
from another county, who cannot
possibly claim any advantage over
our own county man, and nomi
nate him.
When the time comes to vote lets
all go to the ballot, box and cast
our votes for R. G. Tomlin, a friend
to all, kiud to the poor ami a man
of whom any county might be
proud Voter.

Commencement—Concert,
At the time this week's Herald
goes to press, we are in the midst
of the Commencement exercises of
our College. For this reason we
will have to defer to our next issue
an extended account of these exer
cises. In the meantime, however,
we will say that everything is roov-
iug smoothly along, giving abun
dant satisfaction to the people.
The annual concert will come off
to-night (Tuesday) for which the
College authorities will be com
pelled to charge a small admission
fee. This is rendered necessary, on
aocount of the heavy incidental ex
penses attending the present exer-
cisses, and which all fall on the
college faculty.
We trust our people will all turn
out to night as the programme of
exercises is fine and we have
doubt will highly please all who
may attend.
Come out to the Concert.

A Remarkable Story Told by a North
ern Newspaper:
The following recently appeared
in the Boston Traveler:
“One of the most wonderful men
in Georgia is Senator “Joe” Brown.
There are still hundreds who re-
memb r him as a barefooted boy,
his hickory shirt plainly visible
through a rent in his ’ trousers,
plowing with a bull-tongue and a
mule on his father's mountain
clearing
“Joe's” father was a disciplina
rian When “Joe - ' was about ten
years old Ilia father would hand
him his long squirrel riff*', a horn
of powder and twelve bullets
“Joe.” he would say, “go and get
twelve squirrels, aud remember,
if every one is not Bhot though the
head you'll get a licking.”
Little Joe would sally forth, and
never tail to bring a squirrel for
every bullet, and every squirrel
w'tti a hole through the head. To
day Joe Brown is considered the
ablest lawyer, the shrewdest finan
cier, the m>st cunning railroad
manager, the most astute politician
and the most pious Christian in
Georgia. lie made a good Gover
nor, an able judge, anl as United
States Senator is not by any means
below the standard.
Several years ago he added to his
reputation by proving himself a
ood fighter. The State desired to
lease the Western and Atlantic
railroad, which she owns. Bids
were asked tor and Joe Brown's bid
was, accepted. The unsuccessful
bidders were indignant, and claim
ed that Brown’s bid was $8,000
less than the highest, made.
They accordingly employed Bob
Tombs to examine into the matter.
Tombs went to Atlanta, made an
investigation and then published a
card, saying that. Joe Brown had
obtained the lease through bribery.
Brown immediately cair.e out with
a card saving, that Bob
Tombs was “a liar, a coward and a
scoundrel.
Tombs sent a friend to Brown to
know if his (Brown’s) leligious
scruples would prevent him frmn
accepting a challenge. Brown an
swered in the negative and sent for
a second. Tombs’ friend returned
w th a challenge, asking Brown to
name the weapons. “Squirrel ri
fles,” said Brown covly, with a
significant smile.
That was the last heard from
Tombs and iu a few days he return
ed horn*. His friends had proba
bly told him of Brown s marvelous
shooting as a boy.”
The above story has a very slen
der foundation lor truthfulness.
Senator Biown and Gen. Tombs
were once'engag ’d in a personal
quarrel and a challenge was passed;
but the quarrel was not about the
State road; as the terms of the
lease were fixed by the Legislature
—25,000 per mouth. Gen. Tombs
was bitter in his denunciations ot
Senator Rrown, and the latter be
came angry at the continual on
slaught and the challenge was soon
sent The squirrel rifle business is
of course all stuff and nonsense.
Don’t Forget to Vote Next Sat
urday.
By the recent action of the Dem
ocratic Executive Committee the
citizens of Taylor county will be
called upon next Saturday to say by
their ballots who they prefer to be
Governor of Georgia aad who shall
represent them in Congress. We
are confident that Gen. John B.
Gordon and Hon Thomas W Grinds
are the choice of the poople of this
coun’y for these two positions and
we want every good democrat in
the county to vote next Saturday
and give them a rousing majority.
Union Singing.
We have been requested to state
that there will he a Union Singing
led by Messrs. Chapman and Flem
ing to take place at Bethlehem
church in Macon county on the 1st
Sunday in July; everybody are re -
pectfully invited to attend.
Also a Union Singing will take
place at Murray’s school house in
this county on the 2nd Sunday in
July, led by Messrs Chapman and
Fleming. Everybody invited to
attend and remember to bii.-g their
baskets.
It appears that the nearest
I friends of Hon Hcnrj_ R. Harris
are as much in doubt as to wheth
er he will be a candidate for the
nomination for congress as we are.
So far as we can learn,'he has not
written or spoken to any ono plainly
as to his intentions, but seems in
clined to leave the matter entirely in
the hands of his friends. This
course we beg to suggest, is em
barrassing both to himself and
them. Ha ought to announce
publicly just what he proposes to
do. It may be that there are "other
gentlemen who would like to make
the race themselves, but are holding
[back because they think tie will
I run, and they do not want to an
tagonize him There are ethers
I who have already entered into the
Icanvass and want to know whether
lthey have to fight him or not.
Judging from appearance, how-
lever, we are of the opinion that he
will not cornu out openly as a can
didate, but let the canvass drift
along while his own name will be
held in readiness to be announced
at the moment. Now it Col. Harris
really desires a re-election,as we be
lieve he does, this is not the way to
[ secure it. Let him say he is a can

An Arizona editor recently sent
postal cards to all the prominet
citizens of th j place requesting
them to give you an answer to the
question, why are you are an hon-
st man ? ISome of the replies which
lie publishes are curious. One an
swers: It must be because of my
dnrn cevsedness; I always did like
to be d.ff rent from other people.”
Anether says that he is honest be
cause he has nexer held any public
office. Another indignantly an
swers: “What, d'ye take me fer—

remarks; “I supvose you're goin’

Rich and I*oor«
Making a living is tim matter
that engages the anxious thought
of all classes of our people. There
is a great difference between a liv
ing and a good living. The rich
can afford to live well, the poor
cannot. The lieh ought to spend
their m niey freely—the poor ought
to use economy. A miserly spirit
with a disposition to hoard money
on the part of the rich, is as disas
trous to the good of mankind a3 it
is for the poor to live above their
means. The poor we have with us
always. What they want is em
ployment that bolds out a fair
promise of competency. An idle
brain is the devil's woikshop.
Whenever the devil finds a fellow
out ot a job he straightway gives
him employment. When God has
blessed a man with capitol or cred
it ha should use it te carry on s >me
kind of iudustry that will furnish
an honest living to. those who need
employment. A desire to enjoy
the luxuries of life, and the spend
ing of money before it is earned, is
what keeps poor people in hot wa
ter. They should not try to ape
or envy the rich, for after all the
compensations of Providence are
not so unequal as they imagine.
It is not so much what, a man’s
surroundings are as the spirit that
abides within that brings happi
ness. A patient subciiasion to the
will of God brings the only real
joy, and it, perhaps, is oltenSr
found with the poor thau the rich
Id true Christianity is found the
resolution of labor troubles and
financial ein harassment.
From the Far West
Comes the demand for that great lung
remedy Picine. It is not only known
and appreciated at home, but it is
