choice stock of groceries on Bank. Block.
His advertisement will shortly appear in

We hear some of our lawyers speak in
whispers that it would please them very
much to send Judge Fain to Congress next
term. He could, no doubt, make a lively
canvass for the nomination.
Arthur Jackson has bought the stock
cf general merchandise of Gilbert &
Chunn, at Cassville. Arthur is a young

ment. We predict for him abundant

John Smith says that he knows the
girls like him better than they do Dennis
Vandivere. We think John is going to
marry, anyhow, and he is not going to
rnarry a “widder,” either.
The St. James, under the management
of Dr. McFerrin, is growing very popu
lar. The register show’s largely increas
ed business, and everybody is delighted
with the treatment they receive.
It is time for the Cartersville boys to
organize a “mutual peotection society” for
the purpose of unitedly opposing the
young men from “afar off” who are trying
to take away our home girls. We are
very much in favor of “home protection.’*
Mr. A. N. Wilson, who has been nomi
nated postmaster at Savannah, at one
time taught school in the old log house at
Cassville, and used to wollop Bill Chunn,*
Gerald Griffin, John McMurray, and
many other bearded men of Bartow, like
forty.
To give an idea of what a good lot of
people live around Adairsville, we will
tell that when w’e were there a few days
ago, many of our subscribers hunted us
up to settle for their paper and renew'
their subscription. This speaks w'ell for
any people. We are proud of Adairsville,
we are, certain.
Rev. J. B. Robins will deliver a lecture
in Cave Spring next Thursday night, for
the benefit of the Methodist church at
that place. Hia zmbject will be “Science
and Philosophy aa the Helpmates to
Man.” It be useless for us to as
sure the gooG people of Cave Spring that
they have r* treat in store. Their knowl
edge of tiie speaker fully satisfies them of
that.
Our farmers ar e complaining very
at the manner in which they have
boeu overrun by “patent” men. They say
that hardly' a day passes W'ithout
bringing some new trap to get
their little pocket money. They want a
Test. When they need anything they eay
that they can come to town and get it, and
they are worn out and harassed till their
patience is exhausted by these men. They'
want to be let alone.
The committee of three, composed of
Maj. A. F. Woolley, Mr. N. C. Sayre and
Prof. E. B. Earle, appointed by the Grand
Jury to examine critically the books of the
various county officers, will do their w’ork
faithfully and w ell; and if any errors have
been made, the people will hear from
them. This committee was appointed out
of abundant caution and not because of
any suspicion that our officers are not
doing their whole duty.
We are proud of Cartersville. We are
jealously proud of her, but we are
ashamed of the fact that there is not a lit
erary society in existence in our town.
Why is this? We have intelligent young
men and young ladies, but all of our lit
erary societies have been allowed to die
out. We are seriously in earnest when
we say that some of our young people
should at once give the subject their at
tention. Who will take the first step ?
TAT T LEFT TALKS.
We are to have a minstrel show at the
Opera House this evening, given by oiu
home boys. The entertainment will be
well worth seeing. A jolly crowd are
our boys, and they will cram the Opera
House chock full of fun this evening.
See them.
Judge Fain expresses his deternrina
tiou to spend next summer in Caiters
ville or clear up the dockets of B: irtow
Superior Court. If he will do this- the
Bar and the public will be very gr; iteful
to him. It is a consummation devoutly
wished for. When the business of this
Court is fully up and cases can alw Ays be
tried at the regular trial term, a burden
will have rolled from the shoulders of
our tax payers, and a more prr eperous
day will dawn upon lawyers.
I am indebted to Misses Bessia and Em
mie Anderson, two sweet little brown
eyed girls of Adairsville, for a lovely but
tonhole boquet. I feel flattered and high
ly complimented to have the friendship of
the children, especially each beautiful
ones as Bessie and her little brown-eyed
sister, and their floral contribution has
added much to my happiness U 9 well as
something to my looks. I know of noth
ing sweeter than the Aowers, save it be
the givers, and they have the Tattler’s
grateful thanks for their kind remem
brance.
I heard a Cartersville boy say the
other evening that he had started a bank
account, and that as long jis he kept his
health he never expected to overdraw
his deposits; that he Inad been iu the
habit of spending his surplus money for
unnece&sory luxuries and in going to
cheap shows, &c., but that lie had turned
anew leaf and proposed to “bank”
against a “rainy day.” This fs resolu
tion worty of emulation. If more of
our boys will do this, perhaps our girls
can be prevailed on to marry at home.
It takes something besides love to win a
sensible girl.
Mr. James B. Garrison, telegraph opera
tor at Cartersville, died at the residence of
his brother, on Erwin street, last Sunday
morning at seven o’clock. Mr. Garrison
was well and favorably known in our
city, having been a resident of Cartersville
for about thirteen years. He was an hon
est, straight-forward, Christian gentleman,
and made friends easily and rapidly. His
death W'as that of aC hristian. For about
one month he had been sick, and had
grown emaciated and weak. His father
was watching by his bedside on Saturday
night when Jim asked for his shoulders to
be raised, as his breath was coming short.
His father, anticipating that death was
growing on him, asked him if he felt like
he was willing to die. The answer came
low but clear and distinct, “It is all right;
It is all right,”’ and there, us the first gray
dawn glimmered in the east, he breathed
his last, with a glad smile resting on his
thin face, and his hands folded peacefully
over his bosom. That was the death ot a
good man. He was carried to Ac worth
and Uiaed yaetoeday. .
j A visiting attorney was speaking to
m 3 of the members of our home bar
recently. He said we had the clearest
headed, best posted, and most indus
trious, persevering lot of young law y ers
in Cartersville of any town of its size in
the State. I believe this is true. It is a
noticeable fact that the lawyers who
com© here —big guns they are called —
always meet their match when they run
against our boys and never ‘ ; walk over”
them on legal propositions. There are
some fine young lawyers in Cartersville,
and they will be beard from all over the
State later on.
That is a funny feeling one baa when
on attempt is made to sit down in a chair,
and after considerable progress is made
towards sitting dowiy it is suddenly dis
covered that the chair is not there. Col.
Albert Johnson could doubtless describe
this feeling perfectly. Last week, du
ring court, he was proceeding to take a
seat, and owing to the absence of the
chair, which had been removed while
hie attention was drawn elsewhere, he
proceeded too far and nu.de a very de
cided “xnash” on the Court House floor.
To nay that the crowd and the jury en
joyed it more than he did would be put
ting it very mildly.
It is almost wonderful how wedding
cike ean win one’s heart. A friend of
mine, who married p. few cvcaingß ago,
in a neighboring town, was thoughtful
enough, to send me a nice assortment of
the meet delicious cake, and us I sat be
fore a glowing grate making my supper
out of this generous contribution my
heart warmed towards my young friend
and his lovely wife, and I made wishes
for their future which, if realized, will
make “all heaven and happy constella
tions on them shed their selectest in
fluence. Fresh gales and gentle airs,
will whisper ’round their path, and hap
piness will crown their days.” Next!
In conversation with a gentleman wlio
has j raveled all over Bartow county, and
is familiar with its financial condition, lie
said to me, “Adairsville and the Adairs
ville district is the richest and most pros
perous section in Bartow county. There
are more good larms, more fine stock, more
successful farmers and more manufactur
ing in Adairsville and Oothealoga valley
than in any other section of Georgia. This
is ve ry complimentary to the upper end of
our county but I believe the compliment
is well deserved. One of the secrets of
their success is that they raise more wheat,
corai and hay than almost any other part
of the state. These “all cotton” fellows
will do well to remember this.
Lawyers make grave mistakes while
arguing their cases before the jury,
when, instead of stickiug to the law ad
the facts, they pour out upon the head
of witnesses, lawyers and parties on the
opposite side, a tirade of abuse and criti
cism. The day now is when the men
who sit in jury boxes are intelligent and
cvn discriminate between sound argu
ment and bombast effusions. Legiti
mate criticism is all right, and there are
occasions when it should be used, but
personal abuse and harsh comment
should he sparingly indulged in. It’s a
poor lawyer who can find nothing to
speak about except the witnesses and
attorneys on the other side.
The squirt that appeared in this col
umn two weeks ago urging our home
boys to renewed activity in a matrimo
nial way, has served its purpose ad
mirably and the boys are waking up to
their duty in the premises. Numerous
comments have been made on v. li it J
said and some quaint and curious re
sponses have been provoked. One f al
low writes that he has determined to
marry before another cold winter re!;
n. Another, that he has tried to marry
a home girl and she kindly but firmly
refused. Another, that the Cartersville
girls are too fastidious in their tastes
(which argues that he also has tried and
failed), and to cap the climax another
writes, dubbing me “Captain,” and asks
me to lead the charge on the home girls
aud set the boys an example to follow.
So you see there is liable to he consid
erable activity in the home market by
another winter. The girls (the few that
ire left,) can prepare for a determined
eige during the coming year.
At the suggestion of their pastor, the
Baptist Church cf Cartersville have
adopted anew plan for raising
money for missionary purposes.
As it is rather a novel one I will
give an outline of it. Three committees
have been appointed for the three
different departments of the mission
work, one for State Missions, one for
Home Missions and one for Foreign
Missions. These committees are com
posed each of a chairman aud thirty
members. It is the business cf e: oh
one of these committees to collect
money for that department of the mis
sion work which they represent. Each
member of the peveral committees is
furnished with a list of the names of a
certain number of the ohurch members
which they are to see iu person and so
licit contributions from them. The
work is so divided that the several com
mittees will not conflict with each other.
The committee on State M issions has
the first month, the committee on Home
Missions, the second, and the committee
on Foreign Missions the third—then
commencing again and going through
the same way, so that each committee
has four months in the year in which to
work. On the first Sunday night cf
each month the service at the church is
turned into a concert prayer-meeting, at
which time a report is made by the
chairman cf the committee that has
been at work the previous month, ns to
the success of their labors, Ac., and an
address is made by the chairman of the
committee that is to commence work, on
the condition of that department cf mis
sions to which their special labors are to
d iHof uwuNuuig .
At these meetings special prayer is also
offered for the success and spread of
missions. The theory of this new de
parture in missionary work is a good
one. It puts tli© responsibflty of rais
ing money for this purpose on the
shoulders of the whole chnrch. Every
member of the church will be visited
and solicited in a private way to con
tribute something. While the contribu
tions are not expected to be large, they
will be more numerous and more fre
quent. It will also avoid the necessity
of public collections. By giving one
Sunday evening in each month to the
discussion of missions, the cause mil be
kept constantly in the minds of the
church, and they will be educated up to
giving more intelligently and conse
quently more liberally. The first of this
-cries of mission prayer meetings was
held last Sunday night week. Maj. A.
M. Foute, the chairman of the commit
tee on State Missions, delivered a very
instructive address, showing the need of
missionary work in Georgia. Mr. J. J.
Connor, the chairman of the committee
on Home Missions, will lecture on the
subject of Home Missions on the first
Sunday evening in February, and Mr. J.
C. Conyers, chairman of the committee
on Foreign Missions, on the first Sun
day night in March. This plan has
worked well iu Atlanta and the members
of the Baptist church here seem to take
kindly to it.
On every Thursday night, somewhere
in the city of Cartersville, there assem
bles a little Dand of Christian w’orkers
for the purpose of holding a sooial
prayer meeting. This organization has
been kept up for more than six months,
:,ud no one can estimate the good that
has been done. They have no fixed place
to meet but go from house to house by
special invitation. No home is too hum
ble, no family too obscure to entertain
them, but anywhere they are invited
hey go. Sometimes to the sick room,
ometimes to the home of the aged and
infirm, but always with missions ot love
and with hearts of prayer. It would
move the hardest hearted man iu Car
tersville to listen to some of the sweet,
tender talks made by Col. J. J. Howard,
ihe leader of this little band. At times
[ have seen his eyes light up and his
face glow with a radiance that was
ilmost heavenly; and as his subject
grows upon him bis rugged old form
seemed to rise to a grand height and
iris voice would catch a ring that was
eloquent and musical. It is worth while
t) attend these meetings where the
hearthstone is turned into an altar, and
the prayers of God’s faithful ones go up
s au evening sacrifice. Sometimes
heaven is not far off from there, and its
breezes almost ‘ fan the brows of those
who worship.
GENERAL MENTION.
Mr. Walter S. Coleman, of Pickens
county, is now on the editorial staff of

worth a trial.
The Students Herald is the name
of a neat and very readable little
college paper gotten up by the students
of (he North Georgia Agricultural Col

During the present week, Rev. J. B.
Robins will make some temperance
speeches in Floyd county. lam glad of

est and most forcible temperance
speakers in Georgia, and can do much
good in the Floyd campaign.
The news comes that the Rev. Sam P.
Jones has done some grand W’ork in the
Brooklyn Tabernacle and that a wonder
ful revival has been the result. I learn
that Dr. Talmage has promised to come
to the Brush Arbor meeting in Carters
ville next summer and preach for us in
return for the work done by Mr. Jones.
This is good news for us.
We are having much cold weather of
bite. Seems like the wind cuts
deeper and the cold is more biting than
ever before. In the midst of it we
should remember the poor of our city.
There may be those in Cartersville who
have no wood and nothing to eat. The
poor we have always with us, and they
should never be forgotten.
PERSONAL MENTION.
Mr. Joe N. Neel, of Rome, Ga., came

Skin Diseases
I have a little daughter seven years
old, who for the last four years has been
afflicted with a peculiar dkin eruption on
the face and one hand. I have tried sev
en or eight physicians, among them the
best in California and in this province,
hut to no purpose. The child kept grow
ing w T orse. Fortunately, I saw a statement
St. Paul,M’n.,paper,of a cure of a disease
similar to that of my child. It was affected
by Swift’s Specific. I secured six bottles
and commenced giving it to my little
girl. In less than ono week this terrible
disease, which had baffled all the known
remedies within reach, began to disap
pear. She has been taking it three
months—is perfectly well, and her skin
is as clear as wax.

What a Minister Says.
Extreme weakness and general debility
produced by exposure and over-work at
tendant upon my duties, were gradually
developing into an utter prostration of
my system. Adopting the suggestions
of intimate friends, who had experienced
relief in similar oases by taking Swift’s
Specifio, I now find myself restored to a
perfect condition of health and strength.
Accept my fervent wishes for your con
tinued prosperity in your well chosen and
successful method for relieving tl o o
who suffer.
