Lethoria New Era: The earlier a young
man find- a suitable vocation the greater will
be his success. No tov should wait till he is
twenty-one years old i.efore choosing his oc
cupation.
Atlanta Journal: That the hope for a gen
eral revival in business and financial circles
is founded on a substantial basis, is shown by
the reports that roan- from all over the coun
try of the reopeningof hanks anti the result!p
tion of business b> firms and corporations
that were compelled to suspend during the
recent depressiou.
Albany Daily Herald: The saving that It is
an 111 wn 1 that blows no good comes true
when it IS said that all the conn cities that
sustained su.h serious dama,e by the storm
last Sunday night were those so imminently
exposed to th" yellow fever scourge. Especi
ally is this true of Brunswick, where the at
inospherie changes are now so unfavorable to
a spread of the dread disease.
Brunswick Times-Adrertiser: If witliin
the next few days no new eases are reported,
it may t.e safely concluded that Brunswick is
not infected, and that the cases that occurred
were sporadic. It does not follow there will
be an epidemic of yellow fever in a town be
cause of a few cases. There are cases of yel
low fever in New Orleans every summer
some seasons there were several hundred—
but epidemics occurred only once in ten or
twelve years, or at longer periods.
Griffin Morning Call: It Is safe lo say that
the champion baggage smasher lives in Grif
fin. To see the way in which trunks are
thrown from trains almost creates a w'ish
that an occasional one contained dynamite.
There is no effort made to protect trunks
from bursting, but all are hurled from the
car in such a manner as to burst it if possible.
Railroads should be held responsible for such
destruction of property. The baggage man
should be furnished with trucks and made to
use them.
Middle Georgia Progress: It is very impor
tant that farmers should personally super
wise the ginning of their cotton if they want
to get the best price. The first pickings are
f enerally green and damp, and if ginned in
hat condition will be gin cut. There is al
ways a demand for the best grade, but the
low grad" will more than likely be rejected.
The grade will depend almost entirely on the
handling. If this is properly attended to
there will he no disappointment on the part
of the producer, or rejection on the part, of
the buyer.
TbomasviUe Ti mes-E n tar prise: Two thou
sand circulars announcing that the business
men and banks of Thomasville are ready to
pay the highest price for cotton in currency,
have been Issued and will be scattered broad
cast all over the county. There has been a
general impression that the merchants and
banks did not have enough currency on hand
for this purpose. The circular and double
column advertisement elsewhere, tell dif
ferent tale. Every hale of cotton brought to
Thomasville can It® sold for spot cash, and at
the highest market price.
Milieu Herald: Mlllen had Its share of the
terrible hurricane of Sunday night. The
atorm was at Its highest a Sout 12 o'oloek
The rain fell In torrents, flooding the streets,
heating its way under roofs, and deluging
everything. Many beautiful trees, that have
been useful and ornamental to the town, were
blown down. In the southern part of Mlllen
a dwelling house was totally wrecked. The
occupants escaped unhurt. In the town and
oommunity fruit tree* suffered very much
and great damage was done by the storm in
various ways Fortunately no one wai
hurt, us far as ian be learned.
Athens Banner: One of our merchants who
occasionally takes a social drink, went to the
postoflice Tuesday and found in his box a
notice that there was a letter in the office
with 2 cents due on it. The merchant at once
had visions of a check or something else that
had money in it. and went to the window ad
paid the 2 cents, when to his surprise and
consternation, he found two pamphlets from
Keelv <pre. telling how he could be benefited
to taking the medicine. The merchant Is a
strict member of the church, but those stand
ing near hoard severe words that it would not
do to repeat at a prayer meeting.
Augusta News. W. S. Witham, of Annis
ton. met the cashiers of the fifteen state
hanks, of which he is president, in tije city,
for the purpose of consultation. These banks
are situated in different towns In (ieorgia
ond a few in Alabama. Mr. Witham has Just
returned from New York and Washington,
and while there devised a plan which he says
Is better than the certificate plan. At any
rate, he made arrangements to get all the
money his hanks need, and he furnishes the
statement that hts hanks will buy all the cot
ton brought to the towns where the banks
are located, and cash will be paid for the
fleecy ttaple and at the highest market price.
His arrangements enable him to buy lUO 000
bales of cotton.
Macon Telegraph: “It is not probable that
boats will run on fee Ocmuigee river this
fall, ' said one of the gentlemen most Inter
ested In the amendment to me yesterday.
“W< had hoped to f>e able to get up a stock
company to carry out our plans, but the finan
cial condition of the country, of course, stood
in the way of the organization of any com
pany Just at present Of course, failing the
stock company, it would have been possible
to have temporarily chartered boats in Bruns
wick to do the business, but the yellow fever
came up and knocked any such Idea as this
In the head. Even if we had organized our
company and put the boats on the river, all
business would, of course, have been peremp
torily stopped by the quarantine regula
tions. What is Brunswick’s loss is Savannah's
gain."
Griffin Morning Call: If the farmer would
set apart a part of his land for fruits and veg
etables he could have something to sell
neaTly every month in the year. In the
spring months there are asparagus, peas,
bpets, beans potatoes, strawberries, rasp
berries. Summer, jwaches. plums, grapes,
melons. Fall months there are turnips,
apples, etc. Winter months, there are apples,
pears, rutabagas, celery, etc. So there is out
a short while that an energetic farmer and
fruit-grower would not have something to
sell that would bring him iu good money, and
instead of the everlasting buying on credit,
he would have the money to pay cash for ev
erything he bought. You are a free man
when you pay cash, but when you have to buy
on a credit you belong to somebody else, and
it is the worst kind of slavery. Diversify
your crops.
Macon Evening News: A prominent bank
er said to the writer: “Better times are near
at hand. Already the money channels feel
easier. Confidence is being restored and
Boon we will poise at our old time equilib
rium. So soon as the people are over their
scare, money will flow out plentifully. There
Is not a bank In the land that would not he
glad to lend its money to day if the feeling of
confidence was better. There is no pleasure
in doing business as we are now doing it—
our expense account is high but our income is
very light." The crops are good and there is
Just as much money in this country to day as
ever there was. ’1 here is no rational excuse
for this monetary depression. The Ameri
can people get scared easily but they have
wonderful vitality and recuperative powers.
They can recover from a shock almost as
quickly as they are stricken.
Albany News and Advertiser: The war time
negro was superstitious in the extreme. The
left hind leg <*f a grave yard rabbit was a holy
terror to him. and If any one touched him
with it he was "conjured. ' hoodooed." etc.
They could see ' spirits'’ everywhere after
dark, and some of the stories they told would
put "Uncle Remus" to blush. If one started

which kept him from haviugd ad luck. They

FLORIDA.
Tarpon Springs Truth: An exchange says:
"The people of Florida are beginning to real
ize and appreciate the beneficial results of
the establishment of factories. Work for
factories; they will furnish employment and
i> market for produce." Yes. there is noth
ing that helps more to make a town lively and
prosperous than a large pay roll on Saturday
night.
Jacksonville Times-Union: During the
storm on Sunday an accident occurred which
is greatly deplored by all who knowr the cir
cumstances surrounding the mishap. During
last May the cottage of Mrs. Lucy Dan. a
poor widow, was destroyed by fire; but, with
the insurance money, she was enabled to
commence the erection of anew building,
which was completed only a short time ago.
During the storm of Sunday a large pine tree
was blown directly across the house, almost
demolishing the structure, though, providen
tially, Mrs. Dan escaped serious personal in
jury.
Tampa Times: Some of the principal stock
holders have finally lost faith in the treas
ure hunting operations which have been in
progress near the shell mound in the garri
son for some time past and have refused to
put up any more money to continue the work.
However, the old diviner still sticks oat that
the treasure is there and is continuing the
work. He says It is bullion and that It was
hurled by the Aztec Indians. He now claims
that a tunnel thirty feet long will have to be
cut to reach the treasure. Such and fool
ishness is disgusting—but it is their money
they are wasting, and of course it is their
privilege to do with It as they please.
Ocala Capitol: City Clerk Jewett, who is
sues ihe health certificates says It has al
most become a necessity to have the council
chamber swept out and the benches dusted,
all on the account of the visits of young ladies
after certificates. He had an interesting case
to hapiien yesterday. A young lady called to
get fixed for traveling. The clerk had to
question her as to age. hight and weight.
Jewett has a tape line for measuring and al
ways requests the applicant to remove her hat
Last Saturday he had a young lady that
measured 5 feet 9 Inches, and It was actually
neoessary for the sawed-off clerk to stand on a
chair to tell her hight. but he got there.
Several young men intend to petition to coun
cil to make the health office a separate one
so they can apply for the position.
Jacksonville Metropolis: There are some
valuable Industries which are being con
ducted in a quiet way in this city which In
volve large outlays of capital and employj a
large number of workmen, and of which com
paratively few of our citizens are aware. Out
on Three Mile branch is an extensive brick
yard owned by the Jacksonville Brick and
commercial Company. The writer visited it
recently and was shown a kiln having a ca
pacity of 250,000 brick. It is called a down
draft kiln." The furnaces are built on the
sides and the heated air is conducted through
flues to the top of the structure and then
forced down through the mass of bricks in
sueh a manner as to heat the whole vpith
great uniformity, and the result is so satis
factory that 9ft per cent, of the bricks are
merchantable—which Is far above the aver
age. 75 per cent, being considered a good
turn out from kilns as ordinarily constructed.
To make good hard brick of' Florida clay
without serious loss has heretofore been at
tended with great difficulty, but the Jackson
ville Brick and Commercial Company, after
repeated costly experiments, seem to have
solved the problem.
Jacksonville paper: Crossing to the sooth
side of the river in the afternoon
and fishing for anything that wears
tins Is becoming very popular, and oc
casionally some good strings are caught, as
the river abounds In mackerel and bass, not
to speak of crabs, channel cats, etc.. Innumer
able. The other day a partv of transporta
tion men Chartered a skiff and having provid
ed themselves with several kinds of bait, be
took themselves to the south side for an af
ternoon sport. The first catch was made by a
well known passenger man and was of that
species of fish commonly called a "stingaree,"
but these railroa-i men had never seen any
thing like It before and they carefully pre
se ved it to be sent . the Zoo as n specimen
hitherto unknown to the natural scientist.
Very soon after this the traveling freight
agent felt a tremendous bfte and
utter a struggle succeeded in landing into the
boat a garfish about three feet in length.
This was another stunner for the party, but.
after a thorough examination of the captive
flopping around In the skiff they decided that
it wus an alligator which was not yet old
enough to have sprouted its legs. This ques
tion settled they continued fishing. Luck was
with them, and in an hour or two they hud
filled the boat so full of fish that they were
compelled to stop for fear of sinking her. How
ever they got a little mixed ns to the tale
they would tell of the string, as one of them
told the reporter that they had caught 27
Spanish mackerel, 276 channel cats, 42 crabs
and 7 stingrays while another related it as
gospel truth that a count showed up 7 cats,
426 mackerel and 392 stingrays.
St. Augustine Evening News: Saturday
the News stated that St. Augustine seldom
has storihs like other sections of the coun
try. and Sunday one of the severest gules
imaginable started In bright and eurly and
continued with almost frightful violence all
duy and far into the night. The writer has
never passed through a tropical hurricance,
but if it is any worse than our Sunday
breeze he has no desire for the experience.
As early as 8 o'clock It was evident ibat
great damage would be done, as the wind was
In the northeast and the moon at the full, so
what with wind and water there was every
appearance of music, and sure enough It came
with a rush. At 9 o'clock huge shade trees
commenced to go as though sent for.
One beautiful cedar on San Marco
avenue in an exposed place, was suddenly
twisted off close to the ground and left stand
ing lop side down a long distance away. About
this time, too, the colored Haptist church on
Pine Street, near San Marco avenue, began
to sag, and was watched with intense interest.
At 10:80 the crash came. Tho roof was lifted
high in tho air, carried south about 290 feet
and dashed with violence against the old
wood mill standing there. The north end was
blown In, the two sides outward into the water,
by which it was surrounded, and the front out
into the street. The floor and the pews were
left intact. It went with a crash and was not
more than three seconds about tt either. A
few minutes after some of the church mem
bers came and carried away the hooks and
the organ, which were more or less damaged
by water, though partially covered up by the
north end which fell over them. The loss to
the church will probably nut exceed *I.OOO.
It has not been learned at this writing
whether or not they will rebuild. They can
do so probably at a comparatively small ex
pense. us all the material is there, only par
tially destroyed. Ihe damage done to fences
and trees alone will reach several thousand
dollars, and the destruction of property is
immense. Tho w'hole city presented a dilap
idated appearance, fences were torn down,
huge trees uprooted, signs were missing and
the ground completely covered with fallen
branches and leaves.
The Best in the World.
Senator Henry C. Nelsonf of New York,
writes: “On the 27tli of February, 1883,
I was taken with a violent pain in the re
gion of the kidneys. I suffered such agony
that l could hardly stand up. As soon as
possible 1 applied two Alloock’s Porous
Pi.ASTEits, one over each kidney, and laid
down. In an hour, to my surprise and
delight, tho pain had vanished and I was
well. I wore the plasters for a day or
two as a precaution, and then removed
them. 1 have been using Allcock's
Porous Plasters in my family for the last
ton years, and have always found them
the quickest and best remedy for colds,
strains and rheumatic affections. From
my exjierience I believe they are the best
plasters in the world.”—ad

SNEAK THIEVES
Systematic Small Stealing Had Bean
Going on for Months.
Thomasville, Go., Aug. 31.—For many
months the householders of Thomasville
have been plagued with sneak thieves.
The rascals were very slick and evaded
detection until a month or two ago, when
the Brandon brothers caught two negro
girls in their home. This led to the ar
rest of the mother ar.d the discovery of
many scores of articles stored at her
house, many of which were identified by
the owners from whom they had been
stolen. The stealing ceased. Yesterday
the mother plead guilty in the county
court and was fined the paltry sum of
*14.00, including costs, and turned loose
upon a helpless people to continue her
avocation.
The Thomasville opera house has been
leased by J. W. lieid. T. I. Spence is
manager.
The business men of Thomasville are
delighted at the action of the House in
repealing the Sherman law. The repre
sentative iu congress from the Second
district no longer represents the more
intelligant part of his people on the
money question.
President S- L- Hayes, of the National
bank said to the News correspondent that
in his Judgment there would be only a
half crop of cotton made in this section.
We think his estimate too low but the
crop will be short.

IN CHILDREN
For over two years my little girl’s life
was made miserable by a case of Catarrh.
The discharge from tie nose was large,
constant ana very ofiensive. Her eyes
became inftamed, the lids swollen ano
very painful. After trying various reme
dies, 1 gave her BSSfARW The first bot

and in a short time she was cured.
