Commencement Exercises.
The program for the Commence
ment Exercises of Blakely Institute
has been arranged as follows :
Sunday, May io. at 11 :oo in the
Methodist church, Commencement
Sermon by Rev W. L. Richards, of
Albany.
Monday, May n, at 8 :oo p. m.,
miscellaneous exercises by pupils.
Tuesday night, May 12, Drama,
“A White Mountain Boy,” by 14
pupils.
Wednesday night, May 14, Liter
ary address by Hon A. W. Lane, of
Macon ; also awarding of diplomas
The program as arranged is a
splendid one, and we feel sure the
pupils will be prepared to acquit
themselves in a manner pleasing to
those who may be so fortunate as
to be present. The faculty are
working diligently to this end.
Rev W. L. Richards is one of
the best known and most fluent
ministers in the state and his ser
mon will be a treat to our people.
Mr. A. W. Lane, who is to de
liver the literary address, is no stran
ger to our people, having once been
principal of the Blakely Institute.
He is a most polished speaker.
Robbed the Grave.
A startling incident, is narrated
by John Oliver of Philadelphia, as
follows: “I was in an awful con
dition. My skin was almost yel
low, eyes sunken, tongue coated,
pain continually in back and sides,
no appetite, growing weaker day
by day. Three physicans had
given me up. Then I was advised
to use Electric Bitters ; to my great
joy, the first bottle made a decided
improvement. I continued their
use for three weeks, and am now a
well man. I know they robbed
the grave of another victim.” No
one should fail to try them. Only
50 cents, guaranteed, at L. C.
Strong’s drug store.

No New Pest.
Our readers remember that two
weeks ago we sent to the agricul
tural department specimens of "lice
infested oats for Mr. C. J. Ten
nant. We are in receipt of a reply
to our letter from the State En
tomolist, W. M. Scott, who says
in his letter:
“The specimens of oats from Mr.
C. J. Tennant are infested with
what is known as the grain aphis
or grain plant louse. This insect
has been reported to me from sever
al different sections of the state and
it seems to be quite prevalent this
season. It is no new pest, as it is
generally known to infest grain in
many sections of the country. A
strong tobacco decoction or the
well known kerosene emulsion is a
remedy for plant lice, but it is of
course impractical to spray a grain
field and we must depend largely
upon natural agencies to hold this
pest in control. Ladybugs, Syr
phus flies and Hymenipterous para
sites all prey upon plant lice and I
find that most of the insects you
sent are already killed by internal
parasites. lam inclined to think,
therefore, that the trouble will soon
disappear and that you will see
nothing more of it until next sea
son.”
A disordered stomach may cause
no end of trouble. When thestomach
fails to perform its functions the
bowels become deranged, the liver
and kidneys congested, causing
numerous diseases, the most fatal of
which are painless and therefore
the more to be dreaded. The im
portant thing is to restore the stom
ach and liver to a healthy condition,
and for the purpose no better prep
aration can be used than Chamber
lain’s Stomach and Liver Tablets.

Another Camilla Boy Honored.

bestow on a student receiving a
diploma.
Mr. Willie C. is a graduate of
the Camilla High School and all

cess. The Enterprise congratu
lates him and his many relatives
