COVINGTON, GA., MARCH 9, 1887
TIIE postal service.
The postal facilities of the rural
districts of Georgia are very poor
and unsatisfactory, Wo suppose
there is no probable hope lor much
improvement in this matter until
the population of the country be
comes more dense. Here in Newton
county we have felt the ineonven
ience of this lack of postal facilities
quite keenly, and have time and
again endeavored to have it improv¬
ed, but with very poor success, We
hope the day is not far distant when
the country will have plenty of post
offices.
PUBLIC ROADS.
One of the greatest needs of our
state is better public roads. They
are needed a great deal more than
railroads. Nothing would add so
much to the value of the lanRs in
Georgia as good, macadamize 1 roads,
running through the various coun
ties. Every reader of the Star
knows how earnestly we have advo¬
cated a change in our road laws, in
the hope that it would give us a bet¬
ter system of public highways.
Good roads not only ephar.co the
value of adjacent property, but they
indicate a high order of intelligence
and civilization among the people.
The Star is a strong advocate of
withdrawing the stale convicts from
private lessees, and parcelling them
out among the various counties of
the stale to work upon l ho public
roads. In this way the people can
get the benefit of tho convict labor,
and tho public works greatly im¬
proved thereby.
VYe should like to see. the law
changed for Newton county, if not
for the whole state. The law should
at least be so changed as to allow
the roads to be let to the lowest and
best bidders, and the option given
to each citizen to pay their road tax
in money or work, as they might
prefer. Tho columns of tho
(tre open to those who wish to
cuss this matter, as to the
Ol making tho charge
suggested. If the people desire
change in tho road laws for
county, the bill will have to bo
vertised 30 days before the
of the summer session of tho
lature.

Too Much Lib
Hampton Times.
Tho greatest trouble with tho
young peoplo these days, is too
much lip. Young boys and- old
boys, young girls, old girls and the
girls that vibrato between sweet six¬
teen and twenty for a decade or two,
all suffer from a preponderance of
lip. They seem to bo born with
more lip than formerly. It is no un¬
usual thing now for a two months old
baby to have a 5 year old lip on
him—or her, as tho case may be. A
nine year old boy of the present
day can wrap up a six inch cigar in
one side of his mouth, c-liow gum on
on the other and have enough lip
lying around loose to talk a man with
good senso to death in twenty min¬
utes. Take a miss of the prescnlgon
oratiOn and give her freo license (o
run her lip according to the dictates
of her own conscience and sbo would
melt any telephone wire in the
country before you could pull her
off.
Lip is a great thing; yet, like tho
noso of a pinoy woodspig, it can easi¬
ly bo overdone and spoil the symotry
of the whole hog.
Cost of Congressmen.
The mileage of senators costs §33,.
000 per annum ; that of representa¬
tives §110,624. The senate mileago
divided per capita would give every
senator over 8434, a sum sufficient
to furnish each of them with first.
class passage from San Francisco to
London or Paris. The house mil¬
eage foots up 8110,621, which is
equivalent to 8333 20 per capita.
The allowance per mile is 20 cents
each way. At the la<t session the
mileage ol officers of the army ami
navy when traveling under orders,
was fixed at 8 cents per mile, At
the presont session, in the sundry
civil bill, this allowance was fixed
at actual expenses, exclusive
sleeping and parlor charges and 4
cents per mile. Ablo arguments
were made in the house (o show that
this allowance was ample. If am¬
ple to cover the traveling expenses
of all other government officials,
why not apply it to members
congress? Here is a good opportu¬
nity to save §75,000 per annum.
For contingent expenses the bill
provides for the senate §69,980, and
for tho houso 8113,937. The sums
divided per capita would give each
senator from the contingent fund
8921, and each representative 8342.
Summarizing, the incidental expense
of congressmen, exclusive of their
animal salary of 85,000, each senator
costs the government to provide him
with attendance over §5 307 per
annum, and the cost of each r-p
resentative and delegate is §1,840.
The senate’s total for personal atten
dance is §403,360; that of the house

§612,674.

Why is it that throe bottles of B. B. B. are
sold in Atlanta to one of any other biood reme¬
dy, and twice as much consumed in the state
of Georgia as any other preparation ? No one
need take our word, blit simply ask the drug¬
gists. Ask the people, they are competent wit¬
nesses. Six houses in Atlanta are buying B. B,
B, in five and ten gross lots, ami some of them
buy as often as every two months. Why these
unprecedented sales here at home with so lit¬
tle advertising ? Modesty forbids us making a
reply. Had B. B. B. been before the public a
quarter or half a century, it would not be nec¬
essary to bolster it up with crutches of page
advertisinents now. Merit will conquer and
down money.

For 1 years I have been a sufferer from a ter¬
rible form of Rheumatism, which reduced me
so low that all hope of recovery was given up.
I have suffered the most excruciating pain day
and night, and often while writhing in agony
have wished that I could die. 1 have tried every
thing known for that disease, but nothing did
me any good, and T have had some of the finest
physicians in the state to work on me ffut all
to no effect. 1 have spent over $8000 without
finding relief. 1 am now proud to say that after
using only one bottle of IL B. B. I am enabled
to walk around and attend to business, and I
would not take $500 for Hie benefit received
from one single bottle of B B. B. I .efet to all
the merchants and business men of this town.

good. The use of 15 bottles of B. B. is. cured me
