Vice President Hobart was un
known to the oountry at large when
he was put upon the ticket of 1896,
but he proved himself able to iden
tify himself more closely with the
administration than any vice presi
dent in recent years. It was his
casting vote that defeated the Bacon
resolution, which, if it had passed
would have reversed the govern
ment’s policy in the Philippines. In
thus serving the president, he won
the latter’s consideration. Had he
remained in health, his renomina*
tion would have been assured.—Ex.
Story of a Slave.
To be bound hand and foot tor
years by the chains of disease is
the worst form of slavery. George
D. Williams, of Manchester

made free. He says : “My wife

that she could not turn over in
bed. After using two bottles of
Electric Bitters, she is wonderfully
improved and able to do her own
work.” This supreme remedy
for female diseases quickly cures
nervousness, sleeplessness, melan
choly, headache, backache, faint

Highly Favorable to Cardele'a Ap
proaching Carnival.
Editor Sentinel —I see in your
estimable paper that the peopleof
Cordele are going to have a three
days’ frolic and invite all we
country fellows to come to town'
and see the sights without money
and without price,and that catches
me, and all the other fellows.
Well, that carnival idea is a
good one—good for both town and
country people. It will increase
the trade of the merchants of your
city, and in trading, we country
people will get more fjr our
money. It is so scarce with us
these days we want to stretch it
as far as we can. I rather like
your town, because the merchants
are liberal, give you the worth of
your money, and atthesame time
appear to appreciate your trade
and politely ask you to call again,
and you feel like doing so.
Cordele is a cheap market to buy
in, and a high market to sell in,
and that suits we farmers. The
village and station merchant gou
ges us in trading, both ways, high
prices for goods and don’t low prices for
our produce. I’m They the treat us
right,and one of boys who
is going to change. Why, they
charge 5 cents for a paper of tacks
and20cent8 for a five-cent file,
while in your town the other day
I bought tacks atone cent a paper,
Too big a difference; don’t you
see. Some of mv neighbors run
mortgage accounts and tie them
selves to one fellow to be skinned,
and it is usually done according to
Hoyle. Last summer a neighbor
had to pay ninety cents for a little
corn on time, when it was selling
in Cordele at 65 cents. We want
to come up and get better ac
quainted, for our mutual benefit,
and all ot us will be there on time.
I and other clod-knockers want
to have a frolic any how.
Some of our farmers are geing
to put in a lot of wheat.
Some farmers are losing nearly
all their hogs, and chittlings and
souce will be scarce with them.
