Good Advice.
G(>orge P. Rowell Co* of New
York, the leading advertising
authorities of the country, give
this advice to those who want to
reach the public:
“The best advertising medium
is THE DAILY PAPER. The
best advertisement is the one
that tells what you want to say
in the fewest} and plainest
words. So display it that it
will catch the eye. Insert it in
the best daily paper—mind you
—THE BEST.”
It may co3t more, but it will
pay you in even greater propor->
tion.

It is hardly probable #ays the Augns-
Herald, that General Gordon will
give up the $15,000 a year he makea on
the looture platform for a $3,000 gover
norship, out of which he has already
had all the honor possible.
A number of States already debar
from office any person who has fought a
duel or who has in any way assisted in
the same. And Law Notes, of North-
port, N. Y., suggests that the govern
ors of the several States recommended
to their respective legislatures a similar
provision in regard jo persons who take
part in ly^ohings,
There is more Catarrh in this aectlon
of the country than all other diseases
pot together and until the last few
years was supposed to be Rentable.
Fora great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescrib
ed looal remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it Inonrable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires con
stitutions! treatment. Hall’s Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only const!
tutional cure on the market. It is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to a
teaspoonful. It acts directly on the
blood and mneous aurfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred dol
lars for any oase it fails to cure. Send
for circulars and testimonials.

. JUDGE SPEER’S SPEECH-
The address delivered this morning
by J udge Emory Speer was in every
way worthy of theoooasion. It wat
fall of information such as only a pro
found student like Judge Speer brings
to light and-it was handled with
that grace and eloquence which mark
every utteranoe of the distinguished
jurist.
It is extremely gratifying to the pa
triotic oitissns of Augusta to Had that
their elty took ao important a part in
the war of the revalutlon. There are
more sacred associations clustering
around Augusta than any other city in
the State can boast. There ia scarcely
an inch of ground which has not been
immortalized by the touch of some of
the heroes of the rev< lution.
And no man in this country is bet-
tsr qualified to present these facts in
the moat attractive light than Judge
Speer. His ripe scholarship and elo
qnent delivery mark him as one of the
leading oratore of the South. The ex
actions of jurisprudence have t ot suc
ceeded In drying up the fertility of hia
literary resouross and henoe he is
equally at home in the mnsty mixes of
the law and in the celebration of the
birthday of the repnblic. The people of
Augusta looked forward with the deep
est interest to hia address of ted ty and
it is sufficient to say that their highest
expectations have been snore than ful
filled.
We shall be proud of oar patriotic
heritage since we know how important
apart Augusta played in the war of
independence, ana more than ever it
seems fitting that in Angnsta the custom
of celebrating the Fourth of Jnly should
be revived.
It has been a day to be remembered
and the whole community owe Judge
Speer a debt of gratitude.—Herald
Here’s a poser: A Methodist clergy
man of Milwaukee refuted to marry two
bicyclists who came to him, the woman
in bloomers and the man in the usual
wheeling rig, on Sunday. He said that
bloomers and Sunday wheeling to
gether were too mqoh for him, and he
could not perform tbe ceremony.
It develops that tbe 8ootb and Cen-
tral-American countries, which buy so
largely in Europe, regard tbe long
credit whloeis given there as a great
inducement to buy in England, Ger
many and France. Many Spanish

with tbe United States, and giye ex

PHONIC COMMUNICATION
Mr, R. D. Lumsden Tells of a
New and Important Plan.
Mr. R.D. Lumsden is one of Bibb
county’s progressive farmers, and he ia
a voracious reader of agrioultural liter
ature. He furnishes the Telegraph
with the following interesting item
about setting out sweet potato vines:
North Carolina is the largest sweet
potato producing state in the Union.
Tbe following plan 1 s recommended in
a bulletin issued by the experimental
station at Balegh, N. C., called ( ‘The
Home Vegetable Garden and Its Pest.
It is one of the best and most useful
bulletins issued by the experimental
stations. Giving a bit of all garden
vegtables raised in North Carolina
how to grow them and tbe diaeases and
insects that attack them, and reme
dies for the same, This ia the plan to
aet ont sweet potato vines: Tbe lend
having been prepared, ran a deep far
row, then the vines, which ahonld be
cat from the tips two feet long, are laid
in this furrow,’ about 12 to 15 Inohes
apart, the ends reaching over the side
another farrow is then thrown on the
vines, a man following and pressing hia
foot on each vine ao aa to compact the
earth, if the earth is moist nearly every
one will live. I have lately tried this
plan and am well pleased with it. It is
mnch more expeditions than the old
plan of setting them ont with a sack
and I think more will-live.
The bulletin eays better and smoother
potatoes can be raised from the vines
and that to make seed they can be aet
out in August, so as to make amall
roots, which are much better for seed
than large ones.
SPOONS FREE TO ALL.
I read in the Christian Standard that
Misa A. M. Fritz, Station A. St. Louis
Mo., would give an elegant plated hook
spoon to any one sending her ten 2 cent
stamps. I aent for one and fonnd it ao
useful that I showed it to my friends,
and made $13 in two hoars, taking or
ders for the Bpoon. The hook spoon is
a household necessity. It cannot slip
into the dish or cooking vessel, being
held in the place by a hook on tbe back.
The spoon is something housekeepers
have needed ever since spoons were first
invented. Any one esn get a sample
spoon by sending ten 2-cent stamps to
Mias Fritz. This is a splendid way to
make money around home. Very trul y,

he Bell Telephone Company
is to Push the Long Dis
tance Circuit From the
Atlantic to the West.
So Great Certainty That the
Senate Will Confirm the
Appointment of Ne
gro Postmasters.
Athens will soon be talking with
Chicago, that ia If the plans as outlined
by Superintendent Easterlin are carried
ont, and there is no reason to doubt it,
as the long distance telephone ia a suc
cess.
The long dietance telephone oompany
of the north that has stretched lines
from the Atlantio to several cities on
the other side of the Mississippi with
their long distance ’phones is the pro
moter of this new oirenit, Tbe com
pany has a connection at Nashville
From Nashville a connection will be
made with Chsttanooga. The Bell
Telephone Company of this district has
wires running as far north as Rime.
The Chattanooga oimpany will meet
the Atlanta line and then the connec
tion with Loniaville, St. Louis, Chi
cago, Milwaukee' and other western
cities will be completed.
Mr. J. D. Easterlin, snperintendent
of the Bell Telephone Company ot this
city, aaid yesterday in speaking of the
extension that it was very probtble
that it wonld.be made, says the Consti-
tntion. “If Nashville and Chattanooga
will only oouneat themselves and then
come down to Rome, the circuit from
here and other Georgia towny where
our telephones are can speak with tbe
west.
“While the connection with Chicago
la almost a certainty, there is another
connection that is probable and that
is being talked of, Tbe long distance
company is • thinking of making
connection with Washington.
In this case, it is probable
that tbe southern companies will nuke
a connection with this city and then
New York will be in speaking distance
Far away Maine is oonneoted with
New York, and it may be possible for
Atlanta to ’hello’ to Portland, in that
state.
•I am not sure whether the northeas
tern line will bs placed by the long dis
tance company,’’ aaid Mr. Easterlin yes
terday.
“I have heard some talk about being
able to apeak with Maine, and this is
not impossible, uf course it will be
great expense and very costly and
heavy wire will have to be used to make
the connections, bat it is possible.
Chicago is talking to New York
every day. It looks as if we will soon
be talking with Chicago. I have not
kept up very closely with the western
extensions of the long distanoe oompa
ny and I do not know if their wires
that they are tanning into Chicago
could carry tbe message from Atlanta
through Chicago to New York. I think
that a more direct coarse will have to
be given the lines so as to make talking
with tbe northeastern cities possible
“Oar present system runs as far north

By making a connection between North

“I think that the line into the north
east is some time off, however, ss it
takes many thousands of dollars to ran
a telephone wire tbia distanoe.”
The Athena poatoffice appointment
hangt fire, ao say the Washington cor
respondents. Bat the reel esnse seems
to be that President McK‘nl*y has more
important matter* to ooneider, and
hence nothing at all has been done with
view of settling this local issue be
tween Pink Morton, Madison Davis and
the lily whites.
In the flrat plaoe, there has been no
inspector in Athena to check np the ad
ministration, of the rfflie under Post
master O’Farrel). and anoh an inspeo.l >n
always precedes an appointment.
Then again there has been filed in the
Washington departments, petitions and
counter petitions, affidavits of u; fitness
and connter affidavits of moral chancter
andjntelligence. All these papers will
have to be locksd into before the ap
pointment will be made.
Then again there is no reason to bs-
lieve that the Senate w<U confirm the
appointment of a negro poatmaster for
Athens.
If tbe issue is raised all the Siuthern
Senartors, both Democratic and Re
publican, will fight such a selection and
they will possibly be able to secure the
votes of tbe free eilver Republioaos of
the Western Slates.

1EN ABE ENTHUSIASTIC
TEA RAISING IN CAROLINA.
Report Prom a Veteran Horticul turallfit
On a New Fannins: Industry.
Washington, July 5.—Secretary Wil
eon has received a report from a veteran
horticulturalist whom he sent recently
to investigate the tea farming industry
carried on at Summoisvilie S. Q.. with
a view to ascertaining the prospects of
profitable growth of the tea plant iu
this country shon.d it be decided to in
troduce it here as an in iustry;
The x-eport says the labor question is
the most important iu the economics of
this bu-dues* in this eon.cry. It es'i

times as mnch to pi •!: 1 pound of tea in
South Carolina as that paid for the

pends on rainfall or moisture in the
soil. Iu districts favored with sufficient
heat or rains, the plants furnish from
15 to 20 picking! yearly.
Iu the South Carolina fields which
wore inspected,- the conservation of
moisture by draining is enhanced by
systematic surface culture, which largely
prevents the evaporation of moisture
from the upper stratum of soil and se
cures rgain equivalent fall of from 10 to
15 inches of taiu.
The report suggests that it seemed
impracticable to compete with the cheap
Oriental labor, and while some of the
processes in development have been del
egated to machinery, tho picking of the
loaves, requiring discrimination iu sec
tion, has to be done by hand.
The problem has been ingeniously
met in the souihn.ru field by establish
ing a small negro school where tea
picking is included in tho curriculum,
and the young scholars, after some in
strnction, prove good pickers' Only
the most delicate leaves are selected so
as to find a readier trade than the im

Himtelf Struck by the Engine*
New York, July 5.—Jacob Tiggle-
mau so loved his dog that he died to
save his life. As the engineer of tho
Erie express. New York bound, ap
proached tho Riverside bridge, neat
Paterson, N. J., he saw a yonug man,
with a conplo of honuds at his heels,
hurriedly cross the tracks.
The youug man and one of the dogi
got safely over. The other stopped be-,
tween the rails, direcly in the path of i treatment partially helped me, but tbe

MR. WILLIAM ARMSTOXG.
“I have been a sufferer for eight years
I with that horrible disease, Eczema, at
! times all over my body, and no person
I can describe the burning and itching I
had to endure.
I “.The extent of my sufferings can be
appreciated when I state that my con-
| dition was such that I could not take
my bed, and for three months I nev«
laid down, but was compelled to sit in
my chair when not moving around. I
was treated by the best of physicians
with no success, and tried all the patent
medicines recommended for Eczema,
without any good results. I then went
to the Indiana Mud baths, with the same
results, and then to Mt. Clements, the
celebrated medical resort, where the
the dog and whistled shrilly. But the
hound stood as if fascinated, heeding
neither whistle nor call.
Jnst an instant the young man hesi
tated. Then he made a dash in front
of the locomotive, seized the dog and
threw it ont of harm’s way. But he
had miscalculated the speed of the train.
The pilot of the eugiue struck him
squarely and his mangled body was
thrown far into the air and ont to the
side of the tracks. He died instantly,
nearly every bone in his body being
broken.
WHAT A WOMAN CA-N DO.
List week I cleard, af.er paying
all exp3mes, $355.85, the month
previous $260 and have at the same
time attended to other duties. I be
lieve any energetic person can do
equally as well, as I have had every
little experience. The Dish Washer
is just lovely and every family wants
one, which makes selling very easy.
I do no canvassing. People hear
about the Dish Washer and come or
send for one, It is strange that a
good, cheap Dish Washer has never
before been put on the market. The
Monnd City Dish Washer fil'a this
bill. With it yon can wash and dry
the dieher firs family of ten in two
minutes without wetting your hands.
As soon as people see the Washer
work they want one. Yon can make
more money and make it quicker
than with any household article on
tfce market. I feel convinced that
any lady or gentleman can make
from $10 to $14 per day around
home. Yon can get full particulars

can make money awful fast. A. L C.

»“I then tried S. S. S. and after three days
the burning and itching subsided, and
I continued to improve steadily until I
was well—entirely cured. After com

person suffering from Eczema. I will
always keep the S. S. S. in my house,
for I consider it the best blood medicine
of the present age. I am seventy years
of age and am now in perfect health. 1
For real blood diseases relief can only
be obtained by using a real blood reme
dy. So many people who are sufferers
from an obstinate or. deep-seated blood
disease make the mistake of taking rem

cannot possibly reach their trouble. It
is in just such cases which other so-called
blood remedies cannot reach that S.S.b.
has made some of the most wonderful
cures.
S. S. S. cures permanently Cancer,
