A party told us the other day that liquor could be had in his part of the county at $1.25 and $1.50. and some as low as SI.OO per gallon.Wo you see the lmd weather is also a detriment to the hloekader’s business. They can't send the products of their labor to mar ket nor customers can’t come after it. Physicians tell us and other people of the male variety to keep the neck and chest warm as a preventative against had colds and pneumonia caus ing us to button up our coat to the last hole and put the legs of our drawers away down into our heavy yarn socks when we go out in the open air. Vet we are told (being too modest to look) that many of the women appear on the streets in all kinds of weather wear ing short dresses, honey comb socks and a large portion of their breasts ex posed.

Jefferson-Winder Road Several engineers have been in the city for the past week, beginning a sur vey of the Jefferson-Athens road, and also a survey of this end of the Jeflfer son-Winder road. The surveyors at first endeavored to locate one road into town that would answer for hotly high ways, hut it was found that the grade was too steep. The idea was to locate the road along Lee street from the public square. leaving the street near .1, W. Stockton’s residence, and cross ing the field and railroad track near the residence of Styles Dadisnian. The Athens road would than have started at this point. This would have done away with the curve in the Jefferson- Winder road, near the cotton mill, and would have changed the route of the Athens road. Hut on account of the steep grade that leads to the railroad crossing near Mr. Dadisman's, this route was abandoned.—Jackson Herald. A Judicious Inquiry. A well known traveling man who visits the drug trade, ays he has often heard druggists ask a customer, who wished to buy cough medicine, whether it was for a child or an adult ami if a child, they almost invariably recom mended Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. The reason for this is that they know there is no danger from it and that it always cures. There is not the least danger in giving it and for colds, croup and whooping cough it is unsurpassed.
