of fertilizers, bulk meat, flour, grain, salt,
&c., which they can supply to our farmers
in unlimited quantities, Those who have
dealt with this firm speak in the highest
terms of their fairness, honesty and clever
ness, while their fertilizers of some half doz
en brands have given the best results. These
gentlemen also keep the celebrated “Stude
baker” Wagons which have given such sat
isfaction to numerous parties who bought
and tested them in this section. As cotton
buyers, Messrs. Fletcher & Co., have stimu
lated prices and in conjunction with other
enterprising merchants have made Marietta
the best cotton market in Georgia, We
commend this firm to the trading public,
Read their advertisement in another col
ulaa,
—We take pleasure in calling attention to
the advertisement of Messrs. Winters &
Legg, one of the largest and most reliable
firms in the city, who deal extensively in
‘the best brands of fertilizers, farmers’ hard
‘ware and provisions, and, in fact, everything
needed on a farm. They have proved to be
active, energetic and enterprising, conduct
ing their business on the most liberal and
honest business principles, taking advantage
of no one, but affording help to many a man
when others had thrown him overhoard.
They buy for cash, and are enabled to get
the lowest discounts, thereby selling at the
lowest figuces. They have, as cotton buy
ers, been of great benefit to Marietta and to
the farmers of this section. They bought
more cotton this last season than any
firm in Marietta, which shows that they
paid the top of the market prices or they
could not have done so. We cheerfully
commend them to our farmers as honorable,
upright business men, who will treat them
fairly and squarely in all transactions. See
advertisement, :
—For Casi.—Mrs. C. C. Brumby, will for
the next thirty days, offer her entire stock of
millinery, fancy goods and notions at great-
Iy reduced prices and many articles at and
below cost, in order to make room for a
Spring stock of goods,
—Messrs. Reid & Gramling can make
you a better and more durable buggy or
wagon at a less price for substantial quality
than you can get elsewhere. It is not al
ways the cheapest that is the best, but their
work is personally superintended by the
firm, who are first-class, skilled and ex
perienced workmen. Their work lasts
twice as long as the imported bug
gies and wagons, and therefore it is econ
omy to buy something good, and when you
buy from them you buy from men who guar
antee their work and make good the guar
antee. Patronize home and call on Messrs.
Reid & Gramling when you want a carriage,
buggy or wagon, and they will give you
something that will prove satisfactory.
—L. Black & Son have on hand all kinds
of building material, lumber, shingles, lathes,
&c., and can supply the public at short no
tice at figures astonishingly low. Their ma
chine shop is equipped with the latest im
proved machinery which gives them facili
ties unsurpassed in turning out work. With
the best of workmen they can give the ut
most satisfaction in the erection of buildings
of any description equal to the best in finish
and elegance. Enterprising and wide-awake
to the demands of the times, and all they
ask is a trial and they feel confident of giv
ing satisfaction.
—W. E. Gilbert's trade in furniture,
clothing and dry goods has proved highly
satisfactory the past year, the people ap
preciating low prices and good goods. He
is devoting his best energies in supplying
the people with goods at a small profit, be
lieving it is the best to attract trade in this
manner than to drive it to other towns by
exacting enormous profits. His stock of
furniture is unexcelled in variety, finish
and style, and is kept constantly replenished.
In clothing he can suit you if anybody can,
while his dry goods department will com
pare favorably with the best. Call and see
for yourselves and be convinced.
—We regret to learn that Dr. T. S. Stew
art is seriously ill. There seems to be some ‘
difference as to the precise nature of his
trouble. It is said that he thinks it is can
cer of the liver, whilst his physicians, Dr.
Setze, of this place, and Dr. Cumming, of
Atlanta, hope it is somethig less serious.
Dr. Stewart is one of the most highly esteem
ed citizens of Marietta, and indeed, of North
Georgia, and news of his illness will be re
ceived with pain and regret by all who have
ever known him.
—VYesterday a delegation of Marietta citi
zens called on the governor to ask thathe
pardon George Brown, a Cobb county citi
zen, who was sentenced several years ago to
be hanged, but whoes sentence was commu- |
ted by Governor Colquitt to imprisunment‘
forlife. Among thoes who called were Judge
Sessions, Colonel P. W. Ajexander, Mr. Will;

under consideration.— Atlanta Constitution. |
—The matrimonial wave is said to be

—Parties gcing to New Orleans to the
Exposition will do well to call on Mr.
Groves and get an accident ticket. $4.50
will pay for a ticket for $3,000 for 30 days.

ELIND TOM.
This great musical genius will appear at
Nichols' Hall next Tuesday night, 10th
inst. It is almost needless for us to speak of
‘Blind Tom to Marietta people. His wonder
ful performances on the piano are familiar to
ithem. He never fails to have a large audi
ence when visiting here, and on next Tues
day night the hall will Le crowded. There
is some soul-stirring and captivating music
in Tom's manipulation of the keys, whose im
itative faculty is largely developed, and he
repeats any piece of unusic played in e
hearing accurately, even to the" discords,
His many musical eccentricities and varia
l tions makes his entertainments pleasing and
interesting. Don't fail to go.
MISS LULU HURST.
Mystery of Mysteries.
Miss Hurst gave her second performance
in Marietta on last Tuesday night. Nichols’
Hall was crowded until its seating capacity
was exhausted. The people were curious as
well as incredulous and wanted to see for
themselves a display of a force by a timid,
| pretty girl, which whirled men about regard
less of posture or strength.
We have heretofore given in these col
umns a lengthy description of this unknown
and unknowable force; we could not ex
plain it then and we can not do so now. We
only know that she has such force in un
measured quantity, beyond human ken to
perceive or human mind to comprehend. It
is astounding to one's senses to know where
this mystic force reposes, which you feel
communicated by the simple touch of Miss
Hurst's palms and finger tips, making things
inanimate pulsate and quiver. with life and
strength. To a limited extent we tested her
power, and we were clearly convinced that
there was no trick ot legerdemain or muscu
lar exertion on her part. When one took
hold of the chair, embracing it with a strong
determination to hold it, it was gentle as a
zephyr, but as soon as Miss Lulu touched it,
it soon became a raging cyclone, growing
stronger and stronger, until the chair be
came surcharged with such a quantity of
vitality, one lost his equilibrium and
went floundering and dancing over the stage
in the wildest confusion.
The effort of some half a dozen men to
hold and press to the floor a chair in mid
air, proved an impossibility to the extent of
their combined physical strength. The in
animate object had an irresistible tendency
upwards all the time. An umbrella and a
stick were brought into requisition, but they
only added to the mystery in the feats that
“Laughing Lulu” so successfully performed.
The audience was kept amused and en
joyed the entertainment with many hearty
laughs..
During an intermission,the polite and gen
tlemanly manager, Mr, Atkinson, gave a
very pleasing recitation. At the conclusion
Mr. Hurst made a few remarks as to the in
ability of eminent physicians and scientists
to solve or make. lucid to a reasonable cer
tainty the source of this marvelous force,
bat all efforts at investigation have been baf
flled as completely as athletes have been
routed. As to whether Miss Lulu has the
power to call up spirits from the vasty deep
to aid her in her repelling force, is some
thing she is not conscious of, and father and
daughter scout the idea of spiritualism.
They neither attribute it to electricity or
magnetism ; they only know that sometimes
it is treacherous in its exertions and will
not do on some occasions what it has done
on others. It certainly baffles science and
philosophy and leaves one as much bhewild
ered as ever, and the question still remains:
“What is it ?”
But one thing it is doing beyond disputa
tion—it is filling Miss Lulu’s exchequer with
a power that sways the world—for money is
as potent a factor in-the social as the com
mercial world.

HOUSEKEEPING IN THE SUNNY SOUTH.
Having exanmrined the proofsheets of
“Housekeeping in the Sunny South” we
cheerfully testify to its value. It is well
gotten up and admirably arranged. One
striking feature is that the gifted author not
only gives a large number of choice receipts,
but has reduced the cost of them by the
character and excellence of the ingredients.
The work is destined to have a large run.—
Southern World.
The Constitution takes pleasure in com
mending Mrs. Tennent's “Housekeeping in
the Sunny South.” The gifted author is a
lady of experience, culture and judgment,
and an examination of the proofsheets of
her forthcoming work will convince anyone
that the book is exceptionally good. Mrs.
Tennent has succeeded in producing a book
that will be regarded as a necessity to every
careful housekeeper. It seems to cover the
entire field, and leaves nothing else to be
desired. Many of the receipts are now pub
lished for the first time, although they have
been popular in private circles for years.
These receipts have been collected with un
tiring patience, and with a view to the pro
duction of a reliable vade mecum for eco
nomical housekeepers. Mrs. Tennent's
book will be elegantly printed and substan
tially bound, and will be offered at the low
price of two dollars. It deserves a place in
every family, and the Constitution's readers
will make a good investment when they
purchase it.—Atlanta Constitution.

Scrofula.
Are any members of your family thus af
flicted? i{uve they scrofulous swellings of
the glands? Have they any scrofulous sores
or ulcers? If so, and it should be neglected,
the peculiar taint, or poison, may deposit
itself in the substance of the lungs, produc
ing consumption. Look well to the condi
tion of your family, and if thus afilicted,
give the proper remedy without delay. Buy
that which makes absolute cures in the
shortest space of time. The unerring finger
of public opinion points to B. B. B. as the
most wonderful remedy for scrofula ever
known. You need not take our word—you
need not know or names—merit is all you
seek. Ask your neighbors, ask your drug
gist, ask or write to those who give their
certificates and be convinced that B. B. B,
is the quickest and most perfect Blood Puri

Skin Diseases.
I have a little daughter seven years old
who for the last four years has been afflicted
with a peculiar skin eruption on the face
and one hand. T have tried seven or eight
physicians, among them the best in Cali
fornia and in this province, but to no pur
pose. The child kept growing worse. For
tunately, I saw a statement in a St. Paul,
Minn., paper, of a cure of a disease similar
to that of my child. It was affected by
Swift's Specific. 1 secured six bottles and
commenced giving it to my little gizl. In
less than one week this terrible disease,
which had baffled all the known remedies
within reach, began to disappear, She had
been taking it three months—is perfectly
well, and her skin is as clear as wax.

Something for the Baby.
What a terrible affliction about the house
is a cross, erying baby? A young man on
the very edge of matrimony might easily be
frightened from his purpose by having too
much of that sort of music at the homes of
his married friends. Yet babies cry com
monly only when they are sick. One tea
spoonful of Parker's Tonic, given the little
one, will bring rest and sleep to the baby
and all in the house. Only 50 cents, at
druggists.
