WILNER
Eighteen hundred and ninety nine
has como and gone, nnd we bid the old
yoar good bye and welcome the new.
Although she has departed frem the
traditional policies and teachings of our
fore fathers of July 4th, 1776, when
they declared that we are and cught to
be a free American people, to a great
extent do not prize our guaranteed lib
erty euough that was framed in the
great and glorious constitution for our
happiness and security. We have
steadily departed from this greatest
governmental principle, for the perpet
uity of onr American Republic and the
happiness of mankind and are rapidly
tieiug the car of European tyranny to
the car of Amerioan liberty. Especially
has this been done for the years from
95 up to the present time and the only
hope for the downtrodden and oppressed
people for 1900 and coming years is to
throw off the yoke of the European ty
ran ical plan of oppression and return to
the great underlying principles of hu
man local self government as set forth
in the declaration of independence. To
do this means Barker and Barkerism
aud also return to the money of onr
fathers.
On Inst Wednesday afternoou at 3
o’clock occurred the marriage of Mr.
W. A. Fulcher of this place to Miss
Mary Boojh, of Statham, at the home
of the bride, Rev. R. S. McGarity per
forming the ceremouy, a small num
ber of relatives aud friends being pres
ent. Mr. Fulober is one of Wiluer’s
most euergetic aud prosperous young
farmers, while Miss Booth was one of
Stathauis most beautiful and accom
plished youug ladies and he is indeed
fortunate in capturing snch a valuable
prize. We extend our best wishes to
them with the hope that their lives may
be long and happy.
I have just finished reading the life,
death and obsequies of Sir John Rey
nolds, one of the greatest painters of
England. The reading of 'ho life of
this grand old man is enough to make
any young man, wlio has unswerving
devotion to doty and trnth. to make
the most of life and its opportunities.
It should be read bv every ycung rn ui
Mr. H. L. McElhannon made a trip
in the interest of his matrimonial wave
duiing Xmas to Banks county We
don’t think it will be long before the
people of Wilner can welcome Mr. and
Mrs. McElhannon home to the delight
of their many friends.
Miss Georgia Betts, of Athens, spent
Xmas with home folks here.
Miss Maud Lavender, of Griffin, aud
Miss Maud Riley, of Elberton, spent a
portion of Xmas in our midst.
Mr. George Lyle and Miss Ora Lyle,
of Gainesville, who have been spending
Xmas here the guests of relatives, have
returned home.
HE FOOLED THE SURGEONS.
All doctors told Renick Hamilton, of
West Jefferson , 0., after suffering 18
mouths from Rectal Fistula, he would
die unless a costly operation was per
formed; but ho cured himself with five
boxes o i Buckleu’s Arnica Salve, the
surest File cure on Earth, and the best
Salve in the World. 25 cents a box.

TALLASSEE.
One of the most important and en
joyable events during Xmas that has
transpired at Tallassee was a big dance
Wednesday night of lust week at the
chaiming and hospitable home of Mr.
and Mrs G. O. Shackelford, given in
honor cf Misses Eva Hale and Rnby
Hunter. The parlor was beautifully
decorated with holly and fern and the
scene made the occasion enchanting to
all lovers of tho beautiful and fair.
The Athens string band furnished
music for the occasion which was the
sweetest to which we ever listened.
While the music was going on the
young ladies and geuilemen enjoyed
themselves in the gay dance. Among
those present were Misses Annie, Susie
and Allie Peterson, Maud Hunter,
Mamie aud Anna Fulcher, Marge and
Alice Holliday, Mamie Cox, Callie El
rod, Emma Collier, Ora Lyle, Mary
Fulcher and others. Messrs Ellis Betts,
C. C and J. T. Fulcher, Robert Fowler,
R. H. Whitehead, J. L. Bullock, Oscar,
Robert and R M. Lavender, Marriou
Smith, J L. and T. H. Hunter, Robert
Gibson, Talley, Toney and others. The
dance was a glowing success iu every
respect and will go down in the closing
scenes of the nineteenth century as the
best one of 1899. The dance will tn
long remembered and never forgotten
by those present. The dauce was dis
missed in the small hours of the night
by B H. Collier in a few appropriate
remarks from the center of the parlor.
Many thanks are due Mr. and Mrs.
Shackelford for their kindness and hos
pitality on this occasion.
