SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT.
When physicians fail to give relief in cases ol
chronic ailments, resulting from poison blood, how
gratifying to the sufferer to obtain at last the right
remedy. Where every other treatment miserably
fails to cure, Botanic Blood Balm invariably gains
a victory. --

SOMEHOW OR OTHER WE GET ALONG.
The good wife bustled about the house,
Her face still bright with a pleasant smile,
As broken snatches of happy song
Strengthened her heart and hand the while.
The good man sat in the chimney nook,
His little clay pipe within his lips,
And all he’d made and all he’d lost,
Heady and clear on his huger tips.
“Good wife, I’ve just been thinking a bit,
Nothing has done very well this year;
Money is bound to be hard to get—
Everything's bound to be very dear;
IIow the cattle are going to be fed,
How we’re to keep the boys at school,
Is kind of a debt and credit sum
I can’t make balance by my rule.
He turned her round from the baking bread,
Ami she faced him with a cheerful laugh;
i “Why, husband dear, one would think
j That the good rich wheat was only chaff.
j And what if the wheat was only chaff,
As long as we both are well and strong?
: I’m not a woman to worry a bit,
; Somehow or other we get along.
I “Into lives rain must, fall,
some some
Over all lands the storm must beat.
Hut when the rains and storms are o’er,
The after sunshine is twice as sweet.
Through every strait we have found a load,
In every grief we’ve found a song;
We’ve had to bear and had to wait,
Hut somehow or other we get along.
“For thirty years we have loved each other,
•Stood by each other whatever befell.
Six boys have called us father and mother,
And all of them living and doing well.
We owe no man a ponny, my dear,
We’re both of us loving, well and strong,
Good man, I wish you would smoke again,
And think how well we’ve got along.”
He filled his pipe with a pleasant laugh;
; He kissed his wife with a tender pride;
! He said: “I’ll do tell love,
as you me,
I’ll just count upon the other side.”
She left him then with his better thought,
And lifted her work with a low, sweet song—
j A song that followed me many a year,
i Somehow or other we got along.
' LIVINGSTON ON COTTON BAGGING.
He In Ortuin the Georgia Crop Will be Mur*
keted Without the Aid of .lute.
Col. L. F. Livingston, president of
the Stale Alliance of Georgia, is in the
city, and a Journal reporter looked him
up and talked, to him concerning tlie
use of cotton cloth.
\\ e asked:
"What do you know touching ... the
subject of cotton cloth. Will it be
ready with for the farmers season? to cover their
crop next
“The arrangement in Augusta as to
Georgia was this: Thai all orders
should be placed wuh (be Lane mills
and with.the West point nulls. Iho
orders for these two nulls would be di
vided pro rata by the mills. two gentlemen It would

divide these orders.
orders placed as early as possible, aud
have been insisting on the farmers
their orders as early as possible.
We had a letter from Mr. Odenheimer,
of New Orleans, in which he states
that he has new looms up and the mill
already at work turning out 44-inch
stuff, and presses the people possible. to send m
their ordeis as rapidly all as the I
have been writing who over state the to
the different men represent
Alliance to place their orders at once.”
Colonel Livingston continued: i
only anticipate one trouble. The in
difference of many farmers may prompt
them to postpone placing their orders
until it will lie too late to have them
filled mid the resuit will be that there
will be a great many farmers clamorous
for cotton cloth, and it will not be ready
for them, because they have neglected
to notify us in advance.”
“Why not, colonel? Have (lie mi
t | l0r iiies or the Alliance place their or
ders for the two million yards, which
w jj| p p necessary for Georgia, and take
chances on selling that quantity
throne'll the exchange anil through the
merchants in the communities in which
the farmers live?”
“We have no business agent inGeor

trouble we arc now having emphasizes
tbe wreat importance of having a busi

encourage it. but do all in their power
to assist the farmer in securing this

mined and are going to have cotton
cloth for themselves. They will not

nor will they suffer the. damage which
was caused by the delay on their part
in the securing of the necessary amount

goods men, the wholesale grocery men,
the warehousemen, the hankers, the
lawyers, the physicians and in fact ev
ervone who will handle some of the
farmer’s money, take an-active part in
the bagging question, and advocate the
cotton cloth, and see that the necessary
supply will he on hand to meet the de¬
mand of the farmers to buy and cover
their crop with.”
Continued Go!. Livingston: “I have
a letter lately received from a business
agent in Louisiana, in which lie says
that the cotton exchange of New Or¬
leans has endorsed our demand for an
allowance on all cotton bagging covered
hales, of eight pounds per bale. This
settles the question of allowance on tho
part of all other exchanges throughout
the country, for they must necessarily
follow the lead.
Here is the article, giving the action
of the New Orleans cotton exchange.
and is of very great interest:
‘Considerable interest was aroused
in business circles yesterday alter
noon,’ says the Ti.nes-Demoerat,
directors^ ‘awaiting the action of the board of
the cotton exchange on ti.e
question of the reduction of the tare on
cotton covered with cotton bagging.
This all important question lias been a
subject of consideration with the man¬
agement of tlie exchange during the
past year, and now that the alliances
have brought forward a bagging board that has
will stand a full test, the
adopted an independent view of (lie sit¬
uation. which it believes to he for the
best interest of all, and which it purpo¬
ses submitting to tho exchanges of the
United States and Europe.’
reads The circular, unanimously adopted,
as follows:
“In baling the cotton crop of the T r ni
ted States there is now annually etn
ployed about; 10 , 000,000 yards of jute
bagging. The jute fibre is a foreign
product, and its manufacture into bag
gjnnr is conducted chiefly beyond the
limits of the cotton states.
“The annual cost to the growers of
cotton for the bagging used in baling
foeir cotton crop of 7,000,000 bales may
be stated at sav #5.01X1,000.
p () r fog purpose of promoting home
manufactures and increasing the use
and consumption of (lie great exchange staple
cr „ p of the cotton states this
has instituted inquiry into the qualities
and merits of a cotton fabric made es
pecrially for baling cotton. The results

but expensive and valuable opinion.
“A number of manufacturers in the

is practiced largely " in Kngland and
in New Kngland. The state cannot
spend would money to a better advantage. It.
inspire Georgia young scholars in every

of these scholarships will be a lasting
distinction. If any county should fail
to present a candidate the chancellor
of the university shall announce that
fact and open competition for the va¬
cancy to the whole state. This hill will
keep one hundred and thirty-eight
young men at the university perpetual¬

the state. Gnder the inspiration it
would give we ought to have one thous¬

t>. Fait The University Proper.
—When the above demands are tilted
there is #:!OJiOO left for the university
proper. This is a small appropriation
of #180,000, and every dollar of it is
needed. Wit Ii this money new chairs
can he established in the university,
and the very best professors engaged.
The university can be put on a level
with the University of Virginia, and
would do more to' formulate thought
and advance southern intellect than can
ho measured in words. With the in¬
come the university now lias the addi¬
tion of #.‘10,(500 would give a total in¬
come of about #55,000, a very moderate
sum for the work it must do if it tills
tlie demand of the future.
It, will be seen from the above that ev¬

ded that for. it needs, to university double its will faculty get and all

his county, will he educated and main¬

the state. This makes n complete and
thorough system of higher education
that in live years would put Georgia in
advance of any other southern state.

“It will be grandest day the south

HOG RAISING IN GEORGIA.

Just suppose if every farmer, white

provided with and maintained properly
two gooAjirceding sows of select native
stock, and every ten ad joining farmers
between them owned a good Berkshire
or Jersey hoar? The bare supposition
is pleasant to ponder over. This is not
a bad apportionment (is it?)—two breed¬
ing sows to every plow. It might he,

breeding sow to every plow in the state,

People formerly hart, trying to swallow

ness ; amt what a contrast to Ayer’s

icated sugar-plains” —the only fear be¬

taking too many at. a dose. But the

Strictly followed.
J. T. Teller, M. D., of Chittenango,

have written at greater length. He
says: “ Ayer’s Cathartic Pills arc highly
appreciated. They arc perfect in form
and coating, and their effects are all
that tlm most careful .physician could
desire. They have supplanted all tho
Pills formerly popular here, and I think
it must bt> long before any other ean
be made that will at all compare with
them. Those who buy your pills get
full value for their money.”
“Safe, pleasant, and certain in
their action,” is the concise testimony
of l)r. George E. Walker, of Martins

arations. The public having once used
them, will have no others.” —Berry,
