Wallers stein has the largest stock of Fall (roods. Miss Clyde Jackson, who has been leaching in Shorterville for several months, has a flourishing class in art in connection with the Fort Gaines Academy. She is an accomplished ieaelier, and The Sentinel wishes an increased success in her undertaking. I'FTleinember that cotton is worth 8 cents and A. M.

Williams went to Mil ledge v file one day last week, hav ing in custody Jahew Davis, of Bluffton, who was adjudged insane some time since, lmt for whom a place, in the asy¬ lum could not lie secured at that time. Mr. Williams came hack by Atlanta and visited the exposition. Everybody "bo intends buying dry goods, notion, clothing, shoes, fur nit lire, ete., should price A. M. Wallers* tein’s goods. The Juvenile Missumary Society of the Methodist church will favor the pub lie with an entertainment at that church ntxt Monday night.

Daisy Engine Oil is a superior lubri¬ cating oil tli it O. W. Lewis sells at. the same price you pay for au inferior qual¬ ity at other stores. Try it. We regret to learn that Mr. J. A. Bell had the misfortune to lose his splendid mill and ginnery in Calhoun emraty by fire last Wednesday night. Twenty bales of cotton were also burned. It was a fine piece of property, and its loss is quite a serious one, there being no insurance. Mr. Bell has the sympathy of his many friends in his misfortune. S^»Why be aggravated by a pokey horse when you can buy a first-class buggy Whip* at T. M. Brown’s at the same price you have to pay for u cheap one elsewhere ? The Fort Gaines Oil & Guano Mills are about completed, but operaiion is somewhat delayed on account of a scarcity of seed. The price of oil is so much lower this year than last that a corresponding reduction is made in the price of seed. Owing to this re¬ duction many farmers are holding their seed for fertilizing purposes. FF Don’t forget cnat T. M. Brown has a nice line of Crockery and Glassware, aud is closing it out at greatly reduced prices. You can secure a bargain by calling early.
