A rAu.liEn'fi iDEA 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 ville Tribune. A HORRIBLE SUICIDE.

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. ROBERT. 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.
