Fuller, in Frank Leslie’s. EARLY TIMES. A FEW STRIKING FACTS, Of the History of Crawfordyille and Taliaferro County. The house that stands on the corner of the street, leading out into that Greene county road and occupied by Mrs. Ilrooke, was first a log cabin, built by a Mr. Wimburn. He lived 1ft it for some years and then tearing it down, he rebuilt tho house? now stand¬ ing. Tho next lot adjoining Mrs. Ilrooke is tho pretty little cottage home belonging to tho Misses Corry, and was selected as a home by tlieii mother. Mis. Mary Corry. In the year 1880. Mr. E. K. Boone erected, the neat dwelling and Mrs. Corry moved into her new home where she lived Ull til her death. The old Crawfordville Hotel build¬ ing was built long, long years ago and many, many different proprietors have carried on business within its walls. During the Frenclt revelation in ,1795 to 1795, there were thausandt of •French peoplo who came to this e't’ try to make their home with oi> r pie, and these peo 1 ’ among illy of Llossignols. a commenced \the'» ^refiuon ot dwelling house oil his place me «,n> W. B. Kendrick house that s ands between hen and .Slntron. About, that time there arose some trouble and dis¬ satisfaction which caused Mr. R ns.g nol to sell out and leave. The house which lie had started was never com¬ pleted and Mr. Sylvester Cratin bought it and in 1832, tore the frame work down and moved it to (Jrawferdville and erected the building which now stands with us as the Crawfordville Hotel. Soon after it was moved hero Mr. and Mis. Win Little, who kept the first hotel in this place, bought out the present house and run it as a num¬ ber of years. At. Beazley succeeded Little as proprietor and then it was purchased by Mr. D. A. William' who died some years ago. Its preset owner —Mrs. Williams—has added many improvements to it until at last it ranks among the best equipteil hotels, for real solid comfort and conveience. Where the little yellow store thauds above the hotel was formerly a part of the hotel property and in the year 1882, Mrs. Williams had the old build¬ ing torn away and this store erected. The work was done by the Messrs. Fitts. Then too the white store on the corner below the hotel was once a part of the hotel property, and was run as a shoe shop for a long nu mber of years, but in 1859 or 1870 Mr. George Farmer bought the lot and built on the second story to the house, and his family occupied the apartments above, while lie carried on a flourish¬ ing business oh the lower floor. The house now owned and occupied by Miss Oattie Farmer has been known for the last quarter of a century as the Boline lot, but for long years before it was owned by an old eccentric bachel or named Murden Parkerson, who bis death willed the bouse and lot ^ care Mra. and Dolirie, attention as coiopftuaat'on to him in £ ins 1,181 £ days. The store cow occupied by Mrs. M. A. Askin, was built by Mr. William Gunn, in 1870. He bought oft part of the Boline lot, and had the two stores erected hereon. Tne cozy little borne now by Mrs Frank Holden was built by Mr. Joe Farmer, who after living there a short while sold out to Mr. Tf . , The next in order is tha store now occupied by the Democrat. It ia the property of oar townsman, Mr. John . 1 and was built by him, and * uhed store, arid here , he conducted , . , as a a heavy mercntile business for many years. The dwelling now occupied by Or. is oue among the oldest houses our town. As far back as I can it was occupied by Quiunea but whether built by him I not know, but it at last became the property of Mr. Kagio Jones who was then our jailor. It was a large two house, and lie had it cut down and put in its present shape. Here he lived until bis death, and then it vms the home of his widow and her two sons—Jonah and Carey—until a few years ago, when death called them all away except the one son—Carey. The next house on that side of Main street, owned by Mrs 1 Askin and oc cupfed by Mr. Wesley Taylor is a very old house—one among the first built in our town and was erected by Jesse Ellison. The next in order, the “large, ele¬ gant and palatial homo of Mr. Robert ttuun, was built according to his ideas of a comfortable home. It is compara¬ tively a modern residence, and would that our town could Induce more men like Mr. Gunn to movo hero and erect, substantial homes in our midst. is nothing under tho suu why our town should not bo as flourishing and prosperous as our sister towns. Tho next house on tills side is owned by Mr. Oscar Holden and is a modern structure, having stood but a few years. It is a cozy, comfortable and pleasant home. The adjoining building owned and occupied by our worthy fellow towns¬ man and contractor, Mr. \V. J. Nor¬ ton, is a lovelv and attractive homo. He built it a rew years ago, and de¬ signed it specially for the comfort ai d convenience of his own family. In th<Fvacant lot between tho homos of Messrs. Norton and Akins once stood an attractive and elegant home. In it lived Mr. John Alex Stephens, and his family. No homo in town "ts more leerful or elegant; but, jiOut warning tho cry of 1 - and in one.-mirt hour the home of Mr. Stephens lay in ashes. Strange to re¬ late it was tho only home that was wrecked by the (ire fiend that night, but to guard against such narrow risks in future Mr. Norton bought the va¬ cant lot and though he might realize a handsome sum by building on or selling the,lot, lie steadily refuses to do so, for fear that In future he might not escape so well as on that fatal night. Everybody Knows That at tiiis season the blood is filled witli impurities, the accumulation of months of closeconfiuemont in poorly ventilate them stores, workshops and tuneiimcnts. All Impurities and every trace of scrofula, salt, rheum, or other diseases may he ex¬ pelled by taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla, the best blond purifier ever produced. It Is tlm only medicine of udiieli “100 (loses one dollar" is true. A Reynolds young m in slapped the face of the Methodist preacher at that place last Sunday, because the preacher rebuked the young man and liis best girl for disturbing public worship. Can ScirrliUBCancer I><5 Cur <‘tl? This is a hard question to answer. Swift’s Specific has cured thousands of cases of Skin Cancer, and there have been many cases of Sclrrlius Cancer reported cured by it. We do say that s s s j(J w „ rtl| ., tri:ll in ;u)y ,. llw u f cancer. We append a statement of Miss Green, of Tallapoosa, Ga.: It 1884 I had a small lump in my left breast, which proved to boa cancer. The first remedy I tried Was to have it burned off. This did not cure it, shortly afterwards it broke out j^^in ju ^ much worse from. I then C( j„s U lti-d our druggist, who advised me to try .Swift’s Specific (S.

Farmers, hero is something you should remember; A mortgage is a terrible thing. The very word “mortgage” comes from two words which mead death grip. It is the worst thing that was ever put upon a ;farm. While cold, lire, drouth, grass-hoppers, cotton worms and everything unfavorrblo, aiTects the crop; yet the mortgage grows on steadily and has no buck sots. “Give me that which works night and day—which works while I sleep,” says tho man who holds the inortgago. Don’t grow .a mortgage on your farm—it is contrary to all the teach¬ ings ot the order.

How to Got Rich, In answer to a boy’s question: “Tell ino of some trade 1 can get rich at, and something where the work isn’t very hard?” the Detroit Free Press says: 1 f the boy who starts life with this idea will only persevere in it he will become a sharper arid swindler and gambler, anil perhaps a forger or burglar. Looking for something easy has filled the country with tramps and led hundreds of young men into evil paths. The desire to got rich rapidly, and that without much exertion, is the very characteristic that the swind¬ ler prey on. When he finds a man who expects to get something for nothing lie finds a willing victim. What should a boy look forward to? The young man of eighteen win is so situated that he must earn his own way and create Ids own fortune, will have to bend more or leas to circum¬ stances; but he should think well and seek advice before taking a decisive step. Has lie a natural bent toward any particular trade? Contagious Blood Discasoa. Ulcers, sores, pimples, Iteii, salt rheum ctc*, are evidences of contagious blond disease.
