“A Beautiful' Entertainment ”
Mrs. R. H. Smith entertained the So
cial Club last Thursday afternoon at
one of the most enjoyable functions of
the season. Progressive euchre was
played. The color scheme on the lower
floor, which was artistically carrie*d out
in white and pink, was in harmony with
the balmy day and gave the house the
fragrant odor of May time. The punch
bowl surrounded by immense snow
balls had decidedly a cool and refreshing
effect. Cut glass candelabras shaded
•with soft, rosy lights and a quantity of
natural spring butterflies suspended in
visibly in the air, combined with a
profusion of white and pink blossoms,
and the light airy toilettes of the ladies
completed the charm of this spring like
picture. Dainty pink fans were used
as score cards. The first prize was a
beautiful white parasol, the second a
white embroidered hand purse, and the
consolation a pink and white gauze fan.
A delicious collation of ices in pink and
white was prettily served in pink spun
candy baskets. Mrs, Smith, who is al
ways a delightful hostess, was partic
ularly altractive in a fetching gown of
lavendar liberty crepe. This artistic en
tertainment was indeed a pretty com
pliment to the club.
King’s Daughters Honor Gainesville-
Miss Hattie Mitchell attended the
tenth annual convention of the King’s
Daughters which was held in Way
cross last week. The meeting was a
very interesting one and when it ad
journed Miss Mitchell visited Jack
sonville, Fla., before returning home.
Os the three responsible official posi
tions at the disposal of the convention
one was given to a Gainesville member
without her being present or her
knowledge that her name would be

state secretary; Mrs. J. D. Jarding,
Waycross, recording secretary; Miss
Claud Law, Gainesville, treasurer.
Mrs. O. W. Billars, Atlanta; Miss
Mary Cuthbert, Augusta, and Miss
Katherine Latham, Savannah, executive

Daughters will he held in Brunswick.
The selection of Miss Law as treasurer
was quite a surprise to her and' she ap
preciates the honor very highly.

Epidemic of Courts.
Two w.eeks ago a special term of court
was held in Rabun county to try Chub
Wall, who was found guilty and sen
tenced to four years in the penitentiary.
During that term of court a man
named Giles killed a man and another
special term of court has been called to
convene on the 17th instant to try this
man. Rabun county must like courts,
or doesn’t like to feed prisoners.

Dorsey Gives Himself Up.
John T. Dorsey, charged with the
murder of Curtis Twitty, surrendered to
Sheriff Crow at the jail last Friday
morning at 10 o’clock. When seen at
the jail a short time after he arrived he
volunteered the remark that he came in
just as soon as he was able.
The fight which resulted in Twitty’s
death took place Saturday night after
12 o’clock the week before, and the
swelling in Dorsey’s face had somewhat
subsided. He said that any bones that
had been broken in his face were knit
ting together. He said he did not know
•whether his cheek bone had been broken
or not. He was not asked for any state
ment as to the fight. His attorneys, H. H.
Dean and Thompson & Bell, have given
out no statement as to whether a com
mitment trial will be held or what ef
fort, if any, will be made to have him
released on bond.

TAKE TIME TO EAT.
Hurry at Meals Will Send You to Dr.
George for Mi-o-na stomach Tablets.
“Eat in haste and repent at leisure”
is an old saying brought up to date.
Hurry at breakfast means a bad start
for the day, and if you hurry also at the
other meals, you will soon suffer with
loss of appetite, sleeplessness, nervous
ness, furred tongue, specks before the
eyes, headaches, back-aches, weakness
and debility, indigestion, or other ills
that are caused by an abused stomach.
Here in Gainesville, as in thousands of
other places over the country, hurry at
meals increases the druggist’s business.
Not a day passes that Dr. George does
not sell several packages of Mi-o-na
stomach tablets to those who have
ruined their digestion by not taking
time to eat.
Os course indigestion has many other
causes, but whatever the cause, the rem
edy is the same, Mi-o-na. It cures any
acidity there may be, increases the flow
of the gastric juices, and actually gives
strength and tone to the whole digestive
system, so that you can soon eat any
thing at any time without fear of indi
gestion. Dr. George has seen so many
cures made by Mi-o-na that he will sell
it under an absolute guarantee that it
will be successful in every case where it
is used in accordance with directions,
that is, one tablet before each meal, and
will refund the money to anyone whom
it does not help. A large box of Mi-o-na
tablets costs but 50 cents if it cures;
nothing if it fails.
First Term in Stephens.
The first term of superior court held
in Stephens county convened Monday in
Toccoa. A great many cases on the
docket in Habersham county have been
transferred to Stephens county and this
made it necessary for several Gaines

court.

War Against Consumption.
All nations are endeavoring to check
the ravages of consumption, the “white
plague” that clai s so many victims
each year. Foley’s Honey and Tar
cures coughs and colds perfectly and
you are in no danger of consumption.
Do not risk your health by taking some
unknown preparation when Foley’s
Honey and Tar is safe and certain in re
sults. Ask for Foley’s Honey and Tar
and insist upon having it. Dr. J. B.

Rest His Soul.
The death of Col. P. F. Lawshe of
Atlanta will bring sadness to many of
his old friends in Jackson county. He
was one of the leading figures in the
congressional races of Judge Emory
Speer, way back in the early eighties,
being editor and proprietor of the
Gainesville Southron at that time.
There have been few stronger and more
forceful writers in the state, and he was
always as true as steel to his friends,
tie had many noble traits and was fear
less as a lion. We trust that his soul is
now resting in a purer and brighter at
mosphere, free from the many reverses
and struggles through which he passed
in this world, and where there will be
no newspaper controversies and political
wrangles to mar his endless and eternal
pleasure.—Winder Economist.

Put His Enemy Down.
The other day a rattlesnake’s pilot
crawled out from under the house down
at Billie Davis’, who lives on Cane
creek. It was killed and thrown out
into the road. In a short while a king
snake made its appearance from the
stump of a tree which seized the pilot
by the throat and swallowed it. So it
seems that Billy has a variety of snakes
down his way.—Dahlonega Nugget.
THE GAINESVILLE EAGLE, MAY 10, 1906.
Governor Candler May Yet See.
Some months ago the Eagle mentioned
the fact that ex-Governor Candler was
about to lose the sight of the only eye
left him after the civil war. Everyone
keenly sympathized with him when this
sad misfortune was brought to their no
tice, even those who opposed him politi
cally expressing a deep sense of regret.
This was genuine, for openly they op
posed him politically.
It is now more than gratifying to
know that this eye has been operated
on and it is highly probable that the op
eration will prove successful and that
Governor Candler’s eye-sight will be re
stored to him and spared him during
the evening of his illustrious life.
The historical work he is doing for
the state has been in progress all the
while, as he has had able assistants to
do all work -where eye-sight was neces
sary.
Was Wasting Away,
“I had been troubled with kidney dis
ease for the last five years,” writes
Robert K. Watts, of Salem, Mo. “I
lost flesh and never felt well and doc
tored with leading physicians and tried
all remedies suggested without relief.
Finally I tried Foley’s Kidney Cure and
less than two bottles completely cured
me and lam now sound and well.”
During the summer kidney irregulari
ties are often caused by excessive drink
ing or being overheated. Attend to the
kidneys at once by using Foley’s Kid
ney Cure. Dr. J. B. George.
On the Gainesville Midland.
The work of grading .the Gainesville
Midland between Athens and Jefferson
is progressing with all rapidity now.
The contractors have experienced very
little trouble in carrying on the work,
and they are getting along very much
better than they even anticipated before
starting upon the contract.
The work is now being pushed right
along towards Jefferson, and it is be
lieved that by July Ist the grading of
the road will be completed. The work
of laying the ties and rails will be fin
ished and ready for operation by the
early fall.
The exact route over which the com
pany will come into Athens has not yet
been determined. A number of routes
have been surveyed, but none have been
decided upon as yet.

Teamster Got Shot.
As stated last week, a teamster liked
to have been poisoned to death by some
of that liquor sold down about Thomp
son’s bridge in Hall county. Within
the next few days his son w r ent down
and tried it and it also laid him up on
the cooling board until Dr. Castleberry
could give him relief. We are surprised
at people drinking this stuff when they
know that it is liable to kill them.

Methodists to Revise Creed.
The Southern Methodist Conference,
the law making body of the church,is in
session at Birmingham, Ala. Rev. B. F
Fraser is attending, as a visitor, this
week but will return before Sunday.
An effort will be made to prepare a
new statement of their faith and doc
trine, such as will unite the different
branches of the Methodist church or
bring about their co-operation and meet
the demands of the day. Omitting the
preamble that reaffirms their absolute
faith in their present articles of re
ligion, the following is the resolution
introduced to revise its form to meet
present day demands:
“Resolved, That the college of bish
ops be requested to appoint a commis
sion of five members, one of whom
shall be a bishop, which shall invite
other branches of Methodism to unite
with us in the preparation of such a
statement of our faith and such an ex
pression of our doctrinal system as is
called for in our day, and this commis
sion shall represent our church in the
preparation of the same.”
FOR BOTH
One disease of thinness in
children is scrofula; in adults,
consumption. Both have poor
blood; both need more fat.
These diseases thrive on lean
ness. Fat is the best means of
overcoming them; cod liver oil
makes the best and healthiest
fat and
SCOTT’S
EMULSION
is the easiest and most effective
form of cod liver oil. Here's a
natural order of things that
shows why Scott’s Emulsion is
of so much value in all cases of
scrofula and consumption. More
fat, more weight, moie nourish
ment, that’s why.

“There is a tide in the affairs of men,
Which, taken at the Hood, leads on to fortune.”
The tide is now flowing our way. We
have everything needful for the health,
comfort, and happiness of mankind.
Pure invigorating air, not too hoc in
summer nor too cold in winter; nights
that give refreshing sleep, good appe
tites; and we have plenty to eat. We
put out fires with better water than the
people of other towns in Georgia have
to drink. Our town is well lighted with
the latest improved electric system, and
our sewerage is perfect. Our electric
car lines are as well equipped and as
well run as those of the largest cities.
The Chattahoochee Park line is the
prettiest in Georgia, on top of a ridge
for two or three miles in full view of
100 miles or more of the Blue Ridge
mountains; a ride upon it is intoxi
cating, and at the end is the park, with
its walks, boating”, fishing, springs,
flowers, etc.; Brenau College, new
school for boys to be built this summer,
poblic schools in good buildings, new
churches being erected, various manu
factories, two big cotton mills just out
side, farmers prosperous, and smiling
merchants. We don’t need a thing
that we haven’t got. We have more of
all these blessings than we can use our
selves, and I am telling about them so
that you may come here and enjoy
them with us. I have all sorts of real
estate that I can sell you. Residences,
building lots, unimproved tracts which
you can sub-divide, farms and mines,
too, if you want to risk a thing of that
sort. None of these properties are
offered because the owners want to
move away, but we just simply have
more than we need for our own use. If
you are wise and want to come in with
us write me, or come to see me, and I
will do what I can to supply you with
what you like. You will not grow sud
denly rich, but all our people who are
not too well satisfied with, and too in
tent upon enjoying, what they have,
accumulate more. I also represent sev
eral of the best fire insurance companies,
and will protect your property after you
get it. Cail upon me or write.
