One may feel that hi's g'“in* oil, bu l ne naturally dislikes that anything about liis appearance should advise others of the fact. Yet nothing does this so effectually as thin and falling lvair.

Editors, as a rule, rarely ever agree, and consequently are continually at logger heads. They will take up the same sub¬ ject and discuss it in their columns, give it a thorough analyzing, show up ail the points, and if you will take their articles and compare them, tuere will always be some point of disagreement. There are, of course, exceptions to this as well as to all other general ruic6, and we propose to give an instance where three Georgia editors are unanimously of tue same opin¬ ion. The editor or the Southern World, pub¬ lished in Atlanta, says : “I know the proprietors of Bradfield’s Female regula¬ tor, and can vouch for their high standing in this community. I also, from my own knowledge, can testify that it is a great boon to woman, and send lias no forand superior, read their and every lady ought to which they book on female diseases, mail free.” The editoi of the Miffedireville Chronicle says he censiders Bradlield’s Female Reg lator suffering the greatest blessing ever he knows discovered of 6 for woman ; says ladies in his e ommuuity who have been cured sound and well hy its use, and he would adv.se every suffering woman to use it.” From the editor of the Gaines villeEagle: “I consider Bradlield’s Fein lie Regulator the best medicine ever compounded and for offered to the recommended. public for the I diseases well which it is am ae quainted with a.lady who never had any health u itil she commenced using it. It gave her imm abate relief, and from that time until now she has enjoyed the best of health. I can say with hearty good will ‘God.speed Dr. Bradfield in the sale of lus never-failing Female Regulator. Send for our book containing valuable informatiou for women.

P. G. Veazey. Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 30, 1885.— Crtbcfonleille Democrat : Dear Sir:— 1 had tlie honor to be in receipt of a petition front several gentlemen of Taliaferro county, requesting me to vote for the Senate bill giving the Rail¬ road the right ot appeal. In reply I beg leave to say, it ha3 been my earn¬ est desire and effort m all the matters which have been before the Legislature to use my influence to advance the in¬ terest of my constituents. I wish to say to the petitioners through your p i¬ per, that I shall continue to be vigilant and will do all that I can to accommo¬ date them or any others of the people whom I haye the honor to represent whenever I can do so as a faithful and conscientious legislator. In the case, however, to which they refer in their petition they will allow me to say that their interest in the Senate bill has Induced me to carefully inquire into its provisions. And L have found, on investigation, that while the bill seems fair, at first sight it will, if it becomes a law work disaster and loss to all small towns and to farmers, in fact to all persons living along tlie way stations. I am of tlie opinion that the bill can not nor ought not to pass in its present shape. It will pass but it will be in ray opinion, after it lias been amended, so as to relieve the people from any litigation vvitli the Railroad'). Had la ¬ ter do away witli tin commission aito gether.tlian pass it in its present shape. Now, Mr. Editor, l hope the petition¬ ers will excuse me if I beg to be excus¬ ed from voting for this bill in its pres¬ ent shape. Yours respectfully, P. G - Veazey. «-— • — —In dress goods and trim ings wo have everything that is now and fashionable.
