I vvant lo wiite a few lines to
your i>aper ai out what I think of
hard times The people have made
hard times themselves instead ot
the government and they need not
fall out with the government for
what thev have done. If their* hud
never been any meat, corn, flour,
and syrup bought in this country
and the people had left ofl about
half the fine goods they wore,
there would have been money m ihe
country ..nd plenty of it ami any
body could step out and borrow
what they might want and not have
to mortgage their homes for it
Instead ut the ieople selling their
cotton to pay a provision debt they
should have it to buy clothing tor
their families and then they would
not go round cursing the govern
ment because they haven’t their
poekeis full ot uiouey. Let us ra.se
hi>me-supplies and the money will
stay here. Raise less cotton. Put
your girls to spinning and weaving
and making their clothes. My girls
do this, and when they get so they
can’t do it, they can stay at home.
I lived on bread and water for tour
xears during the war and never
heard ii word about hard times.
When we got ready to go to church
nearly every body walked, now go
and 3e how many of them haven’t
got anew buggy. Let us change
our way ol liv ng and dressing and
tunes will change as certain as my
name is A B. DUNCAN.—Carneb

A SAD DEATH
The man\ friends and relatives
of Mrs 1./evi Moore, who lived four
miles from town will oe pained to
learn of her death which occurred
at her father s, Mr. Turner, at
Hampton on Friday
About a year ago she was made a
happy bride with a hnght and pros
perous future before her, but alas,
the great reaper death, has seen fit
to claim her as his own W-- sym
pathise with our young friend Levi
in his sad affliction and could not
console him with a more encourag
ing thought than * All things work
together for good to tnern who love
God.”

This May /Sound Odd, but it is Neverthe
less True
In this eminently progressive age, the
< ducat on ot no young man, no matter
what his intended avocation, can be regar
ded as fully qualifying him for success
unless he possesses a business training.
IFhere to get that of the most practical
character most quickly and cheaply is the
question. This paper ventures nothing in
saving that investigation will pr ve the
Oa.—Ala. Bnsiness College of Macon, Ga.
to be the very institution.
3/any young men in six to ten weeks,
at an expense of from S2O to s3o, have
recently finished bookkeeping, telegraphy
or shorthand there, and, in spite of the
ahrd times, immediately stepped into
positions paj ing from SSO to $75 per
month. There is usually a disposition to
wait and begin with the Aew } ear; hot if
a business education is of any value at all,
the quicker it is gotten, the more valuable
it is, and by writing to the piiucipala,
Messrs. Wyatt & Martin, 3/acon, Ga., at
once, much better terms can be had than
by waiting until later on. Placed six
graduates last week.
ONLY SI.2S—GAZE ON THIS.
We call special attention lo our
clubbing arrangement with the great
southern weekly, the Atlanta Consti
tution, which enables us to offer both
papers for the remarkably low sum of
$1 40 a year. The first duty of every
good citizen is to patronize his home
paper. He wishes to become thor
oughly conversant with his’county
matters, and ouly through bis home
paper can he expect to be supplied
with the current county news, which
is ot the closest interest to him.
After he has provided himself with
his home paper his next consideration
of those who are not within easy
reach of a first-class' daily newspaper
should be to select a first-class weekly
newspaper supplying all the general
news ol the world, and paying special
attention to features which are of par
ticular interest to the household and
the farm.
Just such a paper is The Weekly
Constitution, published at Atlanta,
Ga., and having a circulation of
156,000 copies a week, the largest of
any weekly newspaper published in
America. It is essentially a farmer’s
paper and stands at the head of the
weekly press of this country. Its
agricultural department alone is
worth the subscription price of the
paper, wnile it numbers among its
contributors such well known names
as Bret Harte, Mark Twain, Joel
CJiandler Harris, Sarge Plunkett, Bill
Arp, and a host of others, whose rep
utations are world wide. Its women
an.i childien’s departments are pre
pared with a special view to please the
little folks and the women, and its
news columns literally cover the face
of the earth.
We ate enabled to offer both papers
at practically the price of on*, and we
wid take great pleasure in forwarding
to The Constitution any names sent
ns in connection with our clubbing
offer at the remarkably low price
above given.

The three-year-old stallion,
weighing between fourteen and
fifteen hundred pounds is 15-16
Clyde. He was sired by a thor
oughbred Clyde, in a dam 3-4
Clyde. He is perfectly sound
and trained to work in single
and double harness. He is a
dark chestnut brown, ball-faced.
The Clyde is superior to the
Norman in that, while he has all
the Norman’s draught qualities,
he can travel with any other
breed. He was brought by me
to this state irom northern Illi
nois for my own use, but owing
to a change in business I have
decided to sell him. 1 would
prefer someone would buy him
who would keen him in the com
munity, for if there is anything
we need here it is better stocK
on our farms. For furthei in
formation call on me at the old
Wolfe place, one and a half miles
west of town, or address me at
Jackson, Butts county, Ga.
Parties desiring the service of
my horse can be accommodated
by calling at my house and pay
