There is nothing more necessary to health
than sleep and rest. If these are denied you,
if you rise in the morning more tired than
when you went to bed, there is an affection of
the nerves plainly present If your heart is
weak, or there is an inherited tendency in
that direction, your weakened nerves will
soon so affect your heart’s action as to bring
on serious, chronic trouble. Dr. Miles’ Ner
vine is a nerve tonic, which quiets the nerves,
so that sleep may come, and it quickly re
stores the weakened nerves .to health and
strength. Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure is a great
blooa and heart tonic which regulates the ac
tion of the heart, enriches the blood and im
proves the circulation. _
“Some time ago I was suffering severely
with heart trouble. At times my heart would
seemingly stop beating and at others it would
beat loudly and very fast. Three to four
hours sleep each night in ten months was all
I could get One week in last September I
never closed my eyes. I got Dr. Miles’Nervine
and Hezrt'Cure at a drugstore in Lawrence-
burg, after spending £30000 in medi
cines and doctors in Louisville, Shelbyvillq
Frankfort, Cincinnati and Lawrencebun*.
and in thrcedsys have derived more benefit
from the use of your remedies than I got
from all the doctors and their medicines. I
think everybody ought to know of the mar
velous power contained in your remedies.”—

in .this, great
country of ours.
Social conditions here pnt this section
far ahead of many others. In some
places a man must slave until his back
is bent and his head is gray before he
obtains sufficient wealth to win social
recognition. Wealth is the only open
sesame to society. But here, if a man is
honorable upright and industrious, all
is smooth sailing. His position in the
• community depends upon his character
more than upon his wealth.
There is hut little narrow sectional
feeling, and no political or religious os-'
tracism. Any traces of this that may
have once existed are rapidly disappear
ing. People of every condition and
opinion have come here from every di
rection and the constant exchange of
views and attrition of mind with mind
has produced a broad and liberal spirit.
Neighbors dwell together in unity, and
all are animated by a common spirit of

It was through its
wealth that America became
tlie nation that it is, and it is to its
interests that the nation must

,pers oftentimes clamor for
manufactories to the utter exclusion of
all tilings else. The south, and this im
mediate section in particular, is better
adapted to agriculture than to any
other industry, and it is neither good
economics nor good sense for us to try
to force our energies into channels
where they will prove less productive.
It is almosf a pity we can not all be
farmers, for we should all be happier
then, at any rate. The life of a fanner
is filled with fewer of the worries and
hardships and more * of the pleasures of
this world than that of the follower of
any other vocation on earth. He is his
own master from the least even unto
the greatest, and whatever is in the man
has opportunity, fall and free, to come
out. Neither is the life of a farmer en
tirely without its pecuniary reward,
Money rqtn he made, and what is more
to the point, has been made, right here
in Thomas county at farming.
When a man makes $300 oh two acres
of sugar cane, as Mr. G. W. Davis has
done, or $376 on seven acres of cotton
as Mr. Berry Johnson has done, in this
county, he is not far from the road to
wealth.
With the present prospect in view,
the man who exchanges the farm for
the city vocation is serving himself but
badly.
PASSING OF THE ORATOR.
At a meeting of the representatives of
Georgia colleges held in Atlanta recent
ly it was decided to hold no inter-colleg
iate oratorical contest during the coming
year.
Anyone who has witnessed 4110 pan<ie-.
monium which reigns at. these affairs,
and who has known of the bickerings
and contentions stirred up by them, will
heave a sigh of relief at their passing.
As a matter of fact the day of the
old time ranting orator is past and gone.
He has held sway in the south longer
than elsewhere,’ but even here, he is
rapidly passing.
There is a tinge of regret in all this,
for he was a picturesque character, and
we shall not soon see his like again. But
he appealed rather to the senses than to
reason, more to passion and to prejudice
than to logic and law. He was not en
tirely a trustworthy person, and if fiction
sounded prettier than fact, he spoke fic
tion. He often sacrificed sense for
sound, and was prone to think that the
volume of voice was more important
than the quality;of the spoken matter.
Now, the man of the hour may not
sprinkle star-dust and string roses in the
facile fashion of the orator of yore, hut
he has something to say and says if.
He speaks in a calm, logical, and con
vincing fashion. He saves his breath to
cool bin broth, or for other useful pur
poses. He realizes that his auditors are
intelligent thinking and reading people,
and cannot be led like a flock of sheep
to commit blind folly under the spell of
a persuasive voice. He seeks to direct
rather than to enchain public opinion.
The old time orator was a charming
person, but tllternew logician is the bet-
