We spent a month in the north and east and a large portion of our time was spent in hunting bargains and novelties in this line, and feel that we have been amply rewarded. We have the largest, most stylish and best selected stock ever shown in Middle Georgia. If you don’t believe it call and bo convinced. Have sizas to fit any one from a miget to a giant, and styles to suit any class from the toney dude to the common day laborer, and at prices to please all from a Vanderbuilt to a Job. Don’t buy a suit or overcoat ’till you have come to headquarters and exam- I ined our immense stock. Advice to Housewives. Don’t entice flics into your cook room by leaving a little milk in one cup and grease in another between meals. Scald your tin vessels with lye water. Wash your table ware in soapsuds and rinse them in water slightly blue. Keep handy a piece of sandpaper to rub your steel knives. Put your silver spoons, knives and forks in a white flannel sack con taining powdered chalk. Don’t make a tire in your back yard every three months for the purpose of burning up your old clothes. Tear them in strips one halt inch wide, sew together firmly and smoothly; wind them into balls. Have your husband make you two wooden kniltingneedles, thirty inch es long, cast on your stitches in the usual manner for knitting plain cloth, knit back and forth until you get a rug of any desired length. Spread them around your cook-stove. Take fifteen cents and buy you a brush for cleaning the handles of your cups, stands, ect. Dirt settled around the handles of table-ware looks nasty. Brush back your hair and see that your collar is properly adjusted before sitting down to do the honors of the table, if you don’t feel pleasant see if you can’t assume a pleasant appearance at the table; nothing looks better. Don’t feed your company on ap ologies ; give them something more substanial. Before going out shop ping know what you want and the quality of the same ; don’t pull and haul over every piece of goods in the store. If you are not a good judge of the article you want frankly tell your merchant so, and request him to select it for you. Don't entertain your visitors by lamenting over your inferior help or by not having an}' at all. Hire yonr help by the year and pay them a salary sufficient to keep them. You had better pay §l2 per month for good help than §5 for inferior help if you believe in falling from grace. —Chicago News. Bucklen’s Arnica salve.

Office Piedmont Manufacturing company, Piedmont, S. C.—Messrs. Westmoreland Bros.: Nearly two | years ago 1 contracted malaria into ; my system, and suffered greatly from j time to time from it in various forms j in which it developed. Sometimes ! had severe chills and fevers—indi- j gestion followed it, and I was gener ally out of health. Last spring for more than two months I was greatly troubled with a disordered condition of the bowels, which 1 believe was the result of the malaria still existing in my system. 1 visited two or three mineral springs celebrated for the cure of malarial diseases, with out the slightest benefit. I was also treated as the different symptoms developed by the most skillful phy sicians, but was not relieved. About two months ago, I concluded to try Calisaya Tonic, prepared by West moreland Bros., but I must confess 1 had little confiidencc of being mate rially benefitted by it. I have la icon rive or six bottles of tne Tonic—from the begining I felt relief and contin ued to improve, until now 1 feel quite as well and in as perfect health as I ever did in my life, and believe I am perfectly well. 11. P. HAMMETT, President. Thes effects of malaria in the svs tem is a hard thing to eradicate, but will promptly yield to the wonderful and sovereign remedy, Westmore land’s Calisaya Tonic. Try it. Take Dr. Duke’s Anti Bilious Wafers with Tonic if your liver is out of order. * From the Governor of Louisiana. Baton Rouge. La., Jan’y 24,1886. Mr. A. K. Hawkes.

Cotton Mills in the South. Under the above heading the Morning News contains the follow ing. The last report of tnc National Cotton Exchange, of New Orleans, contains some statistics in regard to the manufacture of cotton goods in the south, which are interesting and tying. Th< so stati sties that the consumption of cotton in creased in the southern states from 381,006 halos in 1885-86 to 401,452 in 1886-87—a difference in favor of the latter year of 20,386. This is an increase of only 5 per cent., which is not very great, but wich is a very much better showing than that made by the mills of the northern states, which consumed 71,398 bales less during the last cotton year than the year before. That the relatively more rapid increase in th . mth was not the result of temporary causes is >wn by the f ct that the consumption of southern mills has increased from 184.943 to 401,- 452 bales, or 125 per cent., while that of Northern mills has risen from 1,387,396 bales to 1,710,080, or 23 per cent. The southern production was then one-ninth of the total, and is now 1 one-fifth. A table is given which shows the consumption of cotton by the mills of each of the southern states. From this it is seen* that there Ims been an increase in ail except three—Mis souri, Texas and Florida—since 1880. It is gratifying to know'that Geor gia has made the largest actual gain in that time, her mills taki ig 12 hales, against 71,389 —an increase of 55,313 bales in seven years. Two Ways to Layup Money. Now there are two ways of faying up mone}'; the one by investing it in stock and depositing it in banks and loaning it on bond and mortgage. The other way of laying up money is giving it away. lie is the safest who makes both of these investments. But the man who devotes none of his gain to the cause of Christ, and thinks oniy of his own comfort and luxury, is not safe. 1 don’t care how Bis money is invested, lie acted as the rose if it should say: “1 will hold my breath and no one shall have a snatch ot fragrance from me until next week, and then I will set all the garden afloat with the aroma.” The time comes but having been without fragrance fur so long, it has NUMBER 38.
