If at orst you don’t succeed, try, try
again. I suppose this saying still holds
good. At least, I can’t give up without
one more trial.
You unfortunately erased the most
important item in my hist letter, and
were I not to write it up again the young
ladies would almost cut my acquaintance.
It haw been ho long since some of our
young ladies had the benefit of leap
year, (we also had a few who have come
upon the carpet since), that they deter
mined to take advantage of it at the
very earliest oportunity. The first pub
lic display of their power they decided
should be at a leap year party. They
1 to look around for a suitable
place for the entertainment. Mrs. Sam
Pittard kindly offered the use of their
large well arranged house, for which
purpose there is not a better one in the
neighborhood. The young ladies wrote
the gentlemen very polite noles, engag
ing their company for Monday night,
Jan. 2nd. On the night appointed, there
assembled as jolly a crowd as I have
s*en for a long time. The young ladies
acted the gallants to perfection, and a
happier looking set of boys was not to
he found. After some time spent in
social converse, and with some splendid
music, the gentlemen were escorted to
the dining room, where a beautiful and
most bountiful table was spread. They
were first served with oysters, nicely
cooked and seasoned to perfection.
Next came delicious custard and such a
variety of splendid cakes, that the one
with the most fastidious taste could find
Something to suit, Everything was so
abundant that if any went away unsatis
fied, they alone were to blame. Young
ladies, you made such a success that we
hope you will repeat several times before
the year is out. I further wish that each
one of you may be successful in your
matrimonial adventures, and succeed in
capturing a real nice, clever, industrious,
and sober fellow, and above all, that you
and him will settle down among usj|
Miss Maggie I rick has been right sick,
but we are glad to learn is better.
There has been more moving along
here than for several years. Some going

Such is life, always on the move.
Benard Herring is confined by an
attack of bilious fever.

KINGSTON.
Great gloom was cast over our quiet
place on Saturday morning, the 7th, by
the announcement of the death of Mr.
John li Harris. While we expected his
death at any time, still it was a sad blow
to our entire community. Mr. Harris
was one of our brightest young men,
full of life, a fine business man. About
two years ago he was attacked with a
slight cough which terminated in con
sumption and being a niaiu.possessed o*
great vitality he fought against it and
everything was done for him that medi
cal nkill and kind friends could do. But
still the progress ot the disease could
not be checked and at 5 o’clock a. m.,
.lan. 7th. his spirit passed over the river,
and we believe he was prepared to go
and is now at rest. His remains were
interred at the family graveyard at Con
naseen Church by the side of his father,
Mr. J, S. Harris, who was laid away three
months ago, the funeral services were
conducted by Bro. Tuggle, at the grave,
lie leaves a wife, mother and several
b.others and sisters and many friends
in mourn his loss. But their loss is nis
gain. The bereaved ones have the heart
toil sympathies of our comrpunity.
[am sorry to report that Rev. J.M.
White, pastor of the Methodist church,
lias been quite ill for a few days, but is

suddenly Sunday night.
Mr. S. L. Boyles was called on business

Our business men say the outlook was
never better for a good year’s trade
than now. The result of a crop is that
all have well nigh paid their indebtedness

At a recent autograph sale in Paris
in one lot was u letter from an eminent
critic to a young and as yet unsuccessful

from the idea of suicide. Apparently the
letter had its intended effect, and the
world owes its writer a debt of gratitude
therefor. It was written by Jules Janin
to Feliciou David.

Tribute of Keapect.
It was not alone in the circle of her be
loved family, nor the immediate com
munity so long accustomed to her gentle
presence and deeds of self-forgetful kind
ness, that the news of Mrs. Levi Jolley’s
sudden death on the 18th of December,
brought a shock of grief and tender
regret. This feeling was shared by the
many aLd all who had ever known her
or crossed the threshold of her hospita
ble home, the place of all places in
which to see and appreciate the depth
and beauty of the character of this
true and perfect lady. Gentle, kind and
thoughtful, would be the impression of
her left with the most careless.
Though death, without warning, the
unconscious falling into sleep that has
no wakening, is something from which
we should pray to be delivered, and is
usually regarded with a feeling of almost
horror. Me can believe that it was to
her a heaven-given mercy. Death was
kind. Hers was such an infinitely loving
heart, and so sensitive, too, and deeply
touched by the sufferings of others, that
a knowledge of the inevitable change
edming and the sorrow' and loss it must
bring her husband and children, would
have caused her the keenest anguish.
M e know that her release was almost in
a moment, and nearly without pain, in
that comfortable sleep wherein the fetters
of life were lightly shaken off, for death
came gently to one of gentle mould. In
their desolate home the living have the
harder part, but even with their wmnt
and need of her, they would not have
selfishly bid her stay. That “God hath
taken her,” His child through submis
sion, love and the fulfillment of every
( hristian duty, that alone reveals a life
nobly lived, should rob their grief of half
its bitterness. No matter for how
many weary years the waiting must be,
the “Good mornings” unspoken on that
quiet Sabbath, may yet greet her on
some brighter chime. Her passionate
tenderness that would have been lavished
in a parting from which she was spared,
may become hers, not in grief but in joy,
in that far “Land o’ the Leal.” It should
be easy to follow mother’s footsteps up
into the everlasting fold. We know' that
upon other homes the shadow of death
has fallen and darkened through the
Christmas-tide.
From their inmates can perefect sym
pathy come. Her last days on earth
were happy ones, not marred by pain,
nor any untoward happening among her
precious grandchildren. Her life was a
full and useful one, having many happy
interests, and brightened and sheltered
in every w'ay by love and care. It was
as she, no doubt, would have wished it
that the last touch and loving attention
came from the hand of her devoted hus
band. Another’s woes she could not feel
in soft adoption, they became her own.
No soul was ever more utterly and per
fectly unselfish, ready in heart, and ready
in hand to assist others in any way
whatever. She was always lovely. The
friends of her youth never tire in speak
ing of Miss Hannah Carpenter and her
beauty that was as rare as her loveliness
of character. Not many dying leave
such a sweet and unfading memory as
this sainted mother. This we have writ
ten is all unworthy of her, and imperfect,
and has only the merit of being “out of
the heart,” as thought sincerely by
A Sound Legal Opinion.
E. Bainbridge Munday, Esq., County
Atty., Clay Cos., Tex., says: “Have used
Electric Bitters with most happy results.
My brother also was very low with Mala
rial Fever and Jaundice, but was cured
by timely use of this medicine. Am satis
fied Electric Bitters sayed his life.”
Mr. D. I. Wilcoxsoa, of Horse Cave,
Ky., adds a like testimony, saying: He
positively believes he would have died,
had it not been for Electric Bitters.

The Coming * uu.
“You will have a good deal of fun over
here this year,” remarked a Roman the
other day, speaking of the coming con
gressional election.
“Yes,” answered a Cartersvillian, “when
there’s to be any fun you can count on
old Bartow as coming in for her share.”
“But who will we have fun out of?”
asked a bystander.
“Oh, Floyd county, I reckon, will
want to send a man to Congress,” said
the Cartersville man. “Judge Branham
has a strong following, and then, of the
younger men, Linton Dean and Seab.
Wright are possibilities for the place.
Besides, our present representative, Hon.
Judson A. Clements, is now a resident
of Floyd.”
“But, that won’t work,” said the
Rome man. “Judson is fudging on us.
He is a Walker county man and belongs
there, and he ain’t got any right to
claim that the county of Floyd will be
satisfied by his return. Yes, I think
Floyd will have out a representative,
and it w on’t be Judson, either.”
From all indications the campaign
this fall will be a lively one. There is no
doubt but what our present representa
tive will meet with serious opposition
in his next race, but whether he can
be “downed” remains to be seen. He is
a tough one to handle and his success
in the past has been remarkable.

EUHAItLEE FARMERS’ CLUB
This Organization in Most Prosperous
Condition.
Editors Courant-American : The Eu
harlee Farmers’ Ciub held its regular
monthly meeting at the residence of Mr.
J. P. Bradley, on Friday, Jan. 6th, and
was called to order by President Fink.
The members were all present but one.
The committee reported all obligations
for the past year fully met and the club
in a better condition than any previous
year.
The reports on test acres of cotton
were made, and are as follows: T. R.
Hammond, 722 pounds lint; H. H. Mi
lam, 718 pounds lint; J. C. Dodd, 626
pounds lint; G. A. Fink, 524 pounds* lint;
J. I*. Bradley, 530 pounds lint; Daniel
Sullivan, i>4o pounds lint; F. R. Calhoun,
530 potinds lint*. This makes an average
0f613 pounds of lint to the acre for the
seven acres that were reported on.
The club discussed the subject of selling
cotton seed at present prices and buying
commercial fertilizers in its place. It was
decided to keep our cotton seed at home
as the amount received for them in fer
tilizers would not improve the land as
much as the seed:
A committee was appointed to buy fer
tilizers for the coming year and report at
the next meeting.
The club was entertained by Mr. Braid
ley and family and enjoyed a most excel
lent dinner.
The next meeting will be held on the
third Saturday in February. Sec’y.

“A Cold Day.”
“A Cold Day, or the Laplanders” was
given at the opera house last Saturday
night to a fairly good audience. It was
a musical comedy that laid qo claims to
possessing a plot and consisted of a
string of ridiculous sayings and nonsen
sical absurdities. The audience evinced
considerable mirth and the actors were
libei ally applauded. There was no spe
cial display of talent
A large addition to our line of Hats

A Leap Year Party.
Quite a successful leap year party was
given at the residence of Dr* J. M. May
field last Monday eveng. Despite the
disagreeableness of the weather a large
number of young people were present,
and the young ladies acted the gallants
to perfection. It is not known whether
any of the masculine hearts gave way to
the soft pleadings of the young ladies or
not, but it is regarded as an auspicious
opening of the leap year.
The 3liua Cure.
