SPRING GREETING OF
EDGAR L. ROGERS!
Leader, and Regulator of Low Prices.
M v almost M irnrulous in Barnesville for the past tour years has stimulated
me to even greater exertion* to please the |*op!e and merit their patronage for tlii>- .sea
ion. (rood G'*id, new st \ I<-. low jirici-s. and square dealings will he in the future as in
the psut, in v business motto. Keep an eye on my goods and prices and I will never fai
to save, you money.
To trv to give the pe ,ple even an idea of my immense spring stock and how cheap I
goods would require a whole paper, -o he -dent that ye may hear of just a
my many wonder*.
DRESS GOODS.
In these I have the beat selections, the neatest styles, and the biggest variety ever
shown in this market. My I tress Goods stock embraces everything from the finest Al
batros, Kaholine and Bolide cloths down to the cheapest Cashmeres even as low a< 6v.
per yard and the beaut\ of the whole thing i~ that I can give you trimmings and but
tons At. to match them all.
WHITE GOODS.
My White Goods stork is truly marvelous White Lawns sc. a yard up C heek Muslin's
Tv. per yard up. White .Sw i-.s uud Mulls, India Linen, Checked Nainsooks, and in fact
I have got them nil.
EMBROIDERERS AND LACES.
Here is where 1 cun interest you. for I certainly have got them this season, and all
competition on llnmburgs, especially must stand aside. ,\i y He. Edges and insertions arc
the talk of every bod v, who has seen them, and the 10c. 12je. 15c. 20c. and 25c. Line are
truly wonderful. I have Embroideries and Laces this time from the very cheapest to
the highest grade of all overs and Klouneings. Come to see them and be paralyzed.
PARASOLS.
The immense Factories of New-York and Philadelphia, have done their best for me,
and fixed me in this line with the very latcts novelties from 15e. to 10.00- Don’t buy,
or even look at a Parasol or I'uihrella until you Jiave seen mine.
GENTS PUNISHING GOODS.
My stock of Gents Furnishing Goods is larger and more complete than I ever dream
ed that 1 could carry here; but the prices and styles will soil them. Mv 50c, Launtlred
and I nkuindrh-d White Shirts are clinchers, and need to be seen to be appreciated. L
am headquarter* for fine Shirts in plain and plaited bosom, Fine Scarfs and nobby collars
and cull*.
SHOES AND HATS.
Sboes and good honest Shoes, art* in mind a great item to the retail dealer. Tam agent
for some of tne best Factories and am prepared to 'it you up in Shoes at low figures and
give you a guarantee on them, and as for hats 1 make them a specialty and have some
treats in store for you in this line.
CLOTHING.
Clothing has been a life long study with me, and I don’t believe mvself presumptuous
when I say that 1 think 1 know the wants of the people in this line. I have the cele
brated Voorlieis Miller and Hupei Goods that have a world wide, reputation for their
superior goods, elegant fits, and handsome make up. My Clothing stock is now filled to
overflow ing, and I am ready to let them slide at my usual low prices.
1 thank my friends and customers for past favors and trust to merit their patronage
even more liberally in the future. Messrs. ,1. F. Howard and B. Z. Holmes are with me
aid will alwav- be glad to serve their old friends and customers. Yours to please,

A Young Lady on Mustaches.
You may ridicule a man’s nose,
his hair, his eyes, his dress, but
when you touch his mustache, he is
“right there.” IJe thinks more ot it
than a mother does of her wayward
child, and' often there is; to the dis
interested observer, just about as
much to be admired iu the one as
the other.
When in the company of young
men, I have seen them caress their
dear mustaches, and the poor arti
cles looked so weak and fragile that
i postively trembled lest they should
wear them out before the evening
was over.
As the pampered and petted child
of wealth often presents a puny ap
pearance, so the potted idol of a
young man’s ambition is many
times but a sickly growth. I have
often thought that it nature ever
feels ashamed of her efforts, she
must blush to see some of the mus
taches of to-day. They seem like a
faint suggestion of a hope beyond,
but. alas! that hope is never reali
zed, and yet the universal sentiment
is,
“Cut off my mustache? O, ye gods!
I'd rather lose my bod, by odds.”

EXTRAVAGANCE VS. LAZINESS.
in a recent discussion of the ques
tion : “Resolved, that extravagance
is a greater cause of our financial
depression than laziness and inat
tention to business,” by the Banks
ton club, the following essay on the
j negative side of the question was
read by one of that club's young
lady members, who said :
‘ We think inattention or laziness
a greater drawback to prosperity
than extravagance. In the routine
of everyday life what do we find
more needful than attention and a
will to do. The energetic farmer,
; outside of his own effort, has but
little to operate with other than a
mass of stupefied laziness, and that
is the main reason ot failure. Most
farmers follow a hap-hazard course,
giving little attention, lienee not
commanding effective labor, and
therefore opportunities, like sun
beams, are overclouded. I apply it
to you. You have ipven ground
inch by inch until you scarcely have
sufficient footing whereon to sub
stantiate your birthright. Why not
practice a system to enforce good
labor, by forfeiting the contract for
all worthless work ?
Again, the young man and young
woman of to-day are permitted to
choose their own vocation; and
many, yes, very many, too often
choose nothing instead ot self-achiev
ed, world-wide renown—that is, la
bor with integrity. Why not bend,
I while in the bud, the will so prone
to folly, and force, by restraint,
I profitable production? Probably
i you can find one in ten that meet
| the requirements of the Doit}’, which
is to make a living by your own
efforts; but alas! such sinning stars
and guide posts to eminence are too
few and tar between.
W nen i look around and see idle
ness lurking on the brow of my
gentleman friends, I shudder and
recoil at the idea of* a lady, who is
not afraid of rain and sunshine, dur
ing to accept an offer so worthless.
We refer to those “dainty” speci
mens ot humanity who lay in the
shade with gloved hands, or sport in
t he forest with empty pockets rather
than sacrifice a little of “beef and
bleaching” to sustain themselves
from dependence and want; to those
who claim the title of farmers’sons
and are seldom, if ever, found on
duty. What a wreck of*noble youth !
too “dainty" to cut, plow or hoe, and
“can’t” pics eottou fe’tukse they get
"si" ■< -
But it is useless to docket defense
less cases, so we will not further
disturb their rest, but pass on to the
idle, useless woman of the present
] age. A noble woman with all her
time and talent well occupied is one
of the grandest monuments on earth;
but the poorest apology in human
shape is a lazy woman. She is a
stumbling block to progress, a blank
in society, and worst of all, a dead
weight to good influence. Sad,
though true, the “young lady of to
-1 day” rather “takes” to folly and
trifling young men. Better far for
them to seek suit from those worthy
to win.
Wealth seeks riddance from all
lazy persons, even though it be their
right by birth, and poverty hugs
i every lazy heart and makes it an
j abject scene.
L do not oppose professions—no
j indeed—when they are sought and
practiced with firmness and courage.
Vv hen professional men are capaci
tated to, and will fill their position
honorably, then they stand as bea
con lights to posterity. But alas!
you are forced to witness quite the
, reverse. Your sons assume the title
of lawyer, doctor, pedagogue, clerk
j or someone of the thousand posi
tions which are tendered the public
to tempt and demoralize the youth ;
and most of these “sham cloaks” are
put on to cover the laziness that
lurks within. Most of* those who
follow a profession with attention
and industry, will leave behind a
pathway strewn with success, as will
all classes of business followers who
practice industry and economy.
Well, I know T m not extrava
gant. for the home-folks, when I'm
called on to cook a meal ot victuals,
say that l do not give them enough.
My theory is to remember the fu
ture as well as the present. Even
were I extravagant and industrious,
I would have the advantage of you
j “indolent creatures,” for I would
I certainly have an income to enjov.
The rule that “nothing is excel
lent without great labor,” should be
inculcated in every mind; then a
grand, radical change would follow.
Lazy folks have nothing whereof to
boast, save, it may be. perchance, a few
inherited dollars, which are soon
gone; and when these are gone all
is gone that is worth naming—the
remainder becomes a nuisance to
good society, and ought to be gone,
for I do abominate lazy people.
W bat you want in a wife O rnun,
is not a butterfly of the parlor only;
not a giggling nonentity: not a gos
siping gadabout; not a commixture
of artificialities which leave you in
doubt as to where the hnmbug ends
and the woman begins: but an ear
nest soul: one that will not only
laugh and ]>uut, but will weep when
you weep.”
\N e commend the above to the
careful, earnest perusal of our read
. ers. d-i.o, it any such there be. mav
be seeking the shady side of life and
endeavoring to eke out an existence
without laboring for it.
SCIENTIFIC MISCELLANY.
To exterminate the rabbits, which
have become such a plague in Aus
tralia. it is proposed to propagate a
contagious disease among them, and
the experiment is to be first tried on
Torrens island.
The proportions of the different
colors in eves among the people of
Italy is thus estimated by* Prof*.
Mantegazza: black eyes, twenty
two per cent; chestnut, sixty four,
blue, eleven ; and gray eyes, three
per cent.
l)r. Burney Yeo, of London, re
ports the curious observation that
there are persons who actually drink
tea without injury, but in whom
when in a depressed mental condi
tion it occasions indigestion and
palpitation of the heart.
Exact measurements of the oscilla
tions of chimneys have been made.
One near Marseilles, France —115
leet high and four feet in external
diameter at the top —reached a
maximum oscillation of twenty inch
es during a high wind.
Prof. L Weber mentions a stroke
of lightning in Germany which
broke a window-pane and forced a
iet of water through the aperture
upward to the ceiling, part ot which
it detached. Three bucketsful ot
water were afterward taken from
the room.
The average height of Europe has
been estimated by a Gorman geogra
pher to be 974 feet. Switzerland
shows the greatest mean height.
4.G24 feet, and the Netherlands the
least, 31 feet. Intermediate are
Spain and Portugal, 2,298 feet; Aus
tria, 1,698; Italy, 1,096; France,
1.292; British Islands, 614; Germa
ny, 701 , Russia, 548; Denmark, 115.
Mr. S. H. Davey, of Cornwall,
Eng., confirms Dr. Tominasi-Cru
delli's opinion concerning the effect
of arsenic in preventing cholera and
other zymotic diseases. Although
during the last forty years many
cases of cholera, fever, small-pox,
etc , have occurred in the country
surrounding the extensive arsenic
works at Biscoe, not a single case
lias been known within about two
miles of the source of the deadly
fumes.
It has been found by Dr. Tail that
the ear in women can perceive higher
notes —that is, sounds with a greater
number of vibrations per second—
than the ear in men. The highest
limit of human hearing is some
where between 41,000 and 42,000
vibrations per second. Few persons
have equal sensibility to acute sounds
in both ears, the right ear usually
hearing a higher note than the left.
The lowest continuous seconds have
about sixteen vibrations per second.
The possibility ot photographing
in the dark has been shown by Ab
ney, an English experimenter. He
has succeeded in preparing plates
which are sensitive to the rays lying
beyond the red end of the spectrum
—the dark heat rays—and with such
plates used with a rock salt lens it
should be possible to photograph
bodies having a high temperature,
although that temperature may be
far below that necessary to render
them self luminous.
J n a report to the F rench Academy
of Sciences on the 172 tornadoes re
corded in the United States in 1884,
Mods. Faye considers it established
that there is a definite portion of an
area of low barometer most favorable
to tornadoes. The signal service re
porters are now endeavoring to de
termine this “dangerous octant” still
more accurately. A memorable
day in the history of tornadoes was
Feb. 19, 1884, when no less than
forty-five were recorded in the south
eastern states, attended with a total
loss of 800 lives, 2,500 injured. 10,000
houses and buildings destroyed, and
15,000 people left homeless.
One of* the marvels promised at
the present day, with good prospect
of realization, is that the blind shall
see. Already has such partial sue
cess attended the substitution of per
fect rabbit eyes for jin perfect human
ones that the process of eye-grafting
seems likely soon to become, a prac
tical reality. But there are many
eyes which Dr. E. Martin, of Mar
seilles, has now discovered may be
readily repaired. In a very large
proportion of cases blindness proves
to be due to opacity of the cornea,
and when this alone is the cause Dr.
Martin accomplishes the miracle of*
restoring sight by inserting into the
eye-ball a gold or platinum tube,
through which artificial cornea the
rays of light reach the retina.
The chief disease of temperate
climates being consumption, and
means which will check its ravages
must be hailed with joy and grati
tude by a large part of the human
race. In France is now projected
an experimental inquiry into the
possibility of firftling some method
of attenuating the supposed virus of
consumption so as to make inocula
tion therewith practically useful
against the disease, either as a pre
ventive measure, like vaccination
against small-pox, or as a means of*
c t-'c, ue Pasteur's inoculations in
hydrophobia. Although the chances
of success are remote, the investiga
tion is approved by eminent scien
tific men, and a considerable sum
has been subscribed toward defray
ing the expense.
“I should have no objection,” said
a hen-pecked husband, - to my wife
having the last word, if I could only
be assured that it would be the very
last.”
THE KINDS OF FISH.
Miss Parloa Tells How to Cook the Fin
ny Beauties—Some Points on Shad.
Savannah News.
Yesterday was fish day at the
cooking school. Baked shad with
Ilollandaise sauce was a prominent
dish. From the moment Miss Par
loa picked up the five-poumi shad
the disinterested looker-on feared
trouble was brewing.
Every community which has wa
ters in which a shad will condescend
to swim thinks its own shad the
very best that swims. Florida
boasts of her shad. Savannah con
siders hers unexcelled. Eastern
shoremen swear by the shad of the
Chesapeake, Jerseymen declare that
the only stiad fit to eat are caught in
the Delaware, North river shad have
a great local reputation, and the
people of the Nutmeg state put the
Connecicut river shad a* the head of
the list.
Miss Parloa made some remark
which the ladies ot her class thought
was a reflection on the Georgia shad
and a dozen ladies began defending
the finny favorite simultaneously.
The teacher thought that the farther
north the shad goes the better it
gets, or at least the fisherman gets
better shad the farther north he goes.
That is true of the cod fish, Miss
Parloa said.
“Maybe it is true ot the cod fish,
but we have the finest shad, and the
Savannah shad always brings the
highest price in New York,” ex
claimed one lady, and seventy-five
more expressed the same sentiment
by approving smiles. The discus
sion was a bit of pleasantry, and if a
vote had been taken on the question
after the laughing was over the re
sult would have been seventy-five to
one.
Miss Parloa has this general rule
for baking fish : “For u fish weigh
ing about five pounds take three
large or five small crackers and
roll them very fine. Take also one
quarter pound of salt pork, two table
spoonfuls of flour, two of salt, one
half tablespoonful of pepper. After
scratching tlie fish free ot scales rub
it into one tablespoonful of salt; add
to the crackers the parsly, one table
spoonful of chopped pork, half the
pepper, one-half teaspoonful ot salt
and cold water to moisten well.
Put this into the body of the fish and
fasten together with a skewer. But
ter in a tin sheet and put it into a
baking pan ; cut gashes across the
fish halt an inqh deep and two
inches long; cut the remainder of
the pork into strips and put these
into the gashes; then put the fish
into the baking pan and dredge
well with salt, pepper and flour;
cover the bottom of the pan with
hot water add put into a rather hot
oven Bake one hour, basting often
with the gravy 1n the pan and
dredging each time with salt, pep
per and flour. The water in the
pan must often be renewed, as the
bottom is simply to be covered with
it each time. When done and placed
in the dish on which it is to be
served pour around it Ilollandaise
sauce, tomato sauce or any kind
preferred. Garnish with parsley.
The Ilollandaise sauce was made
as follows: One-half teacupful ot
butter, the juice of half a lemon, the
yolks of two eggs, a speck of cay
enne, one-half cupful of boiling
water, one-half teaspoonful of salt.
Beat the butter to a cream, then add
the y*olk one bv one, the lemon
juice, pepper and salt. Place the
bowl in which these are mixed in a
saucepan of boiling water. Beat
with an egg beater until the sauce
begins to thicken (about one min
ute,) and add the boiling water,
beating all the time. When it is
like a soft custard it is done. The
bowl if thin must be kept over the
fire only about five minutes, pro
vided the water boils all of the time.
He Cured Them.
A St. Louis county, Missouri, man
gives bis experience with the so
called hog cholera, as follows:
My* hogs became infected through
a boar I borrowed from a neighbor.
He sickened, died and was buried.
Then one after the other of my sows,
shotes and pigs took sick, and not
knowing what to do, I consulted my
old doctor. He advised me to dig
up some May-apple roots, pokeberry
and mullein roots, clean them, chop
them up, put them in a large kettle,
with plenty of water, and boil them
for several hours. I gave the hogs
nothing to eat for had a day r , and
then gave them about a pint of the
decoction in a pail of warm slops
with a little bran. 1 repeated this
three times a day for a week or
longer, gradually adding more bran
to the slops. All recovered but one,
ihat couldn’t be induced to drink
the slops. My neighbor, of whom 1
had borrowed the boar, lost 40 head,
and another neighbor who took a
shote from my farm, where it had
straggled and mixed with my hogs,
lost over 20 head. Neither of them
tried my remedy. I have not had
a case of cholera on my place since.
This remedy is so simple and has
proved so effective in niy case that
1 hope you will give it to your read
ers that ethers may try it, and if it
should prove itself to be a remely
against that fearful scourge, hog
cholera, it should be made known
throughout the whole country*.
