FACTS AND FANCIES.
A Batcli of Interesting Items from the
Assistant Editor.
Mr. ,1. X. Brown, of Tifton, went
down into Colquitt county last week
on a prospecting tour.
Now is a splendid time to fire-hunt
for rabbits. He is abroad every night
now seeking whoso garden lie may
devour.
Leave your orders for job printing
at this office. Quality of our work is
inferior to no office in this section,
while our prices are the lowest. Don’t
forget this?
The people of Tifton should begin
now the free use of lime-about their
premises. The doctors say it will
promote health and ward off sickness
during the coming summer. There
is nothing like being prepared for
any emergency.
L. M., in Baptist Watchman, has
this to say regarding the pastor of
the Baptist church at this place:
“Rev. F. T. Snell, of Tifton, is doing
a great work in South Georgia. W e
do hot wonder that his people are so
devoted to him.”
An exchange truly says: “A news
paper witli evidences of substantial
support in its pages speaks vol
umes for a town. The fact that ev
ery trade seeker has nn ad in its col
umns proves that the people are up
with the times, and favorably im
presses the stranger into whoso hands
it chances to fall.”
A young merchant of Tifton told
the editor last week that his salos for
the past month were 11,000 in excess
of the previous month and he attrib
uted the increaso to his livo adver
tisement in the Gazette. The prof
its on the excess sales for that one
month will almost pay for Ins adver
tisement for a whole year. The thing
is settled; advertising docs pay.
Tiie facts of the following fatil ac
cident recorded by tlio Wortli County
Local, wero furnished us for last
week’s paper by a friend, but wns
overlooked until after wo had gone
to press: “Tiie three-year-old child
of George Walker, a white man liv
ing near Tifton, was burned to death
one day last week. Its clothing caught
from a pilo of burning corn-stalks,
and it was so badly burned before
help could rcncli it that it died within
twenty-four hours.”
The Vienna Progress -had this to
say of the young liorso thief, from
Cordele, who swapped a stolen horse
to our II. A. Youmans a week or so
since:* A young white man sixteen years
old named Allison Odom, of Cordele.
stole a horse from Silas Powell, a set
of harness from II. V, Golden and a
buggy from Mr. Lamb Parker, one
night last week and went to Tifton
There lie swapped horses getting if)
in the trade and had started hack to
Cordele when caught.”
Three days is ft very short time In which
to cure a bad case of rheumatism; but it
can bo done, if the proper treatment is
adopted, as will be seen by the following
from James Lambert of Hew Brunswick
III. "I was badly aflllcted with rhema-
tlsm In the hips and legs, when I bought
a bottle of Chamberlain’* Pain Balm. It
cured me In threo days. 1 am all right
to-day and would Insist on every one who
is aflllcted with that lerrlblo disease to
uecChHmhcrlain’sI’aln Balm and get well
at once.” 50 cent bottles for Bale by Tito
Tifton Drug Store.
Dr. Emmett V. Ball, of Enigma,
Ga., graduated at the Kciectric Med
ical College, Atlanta, March 1, with
first honor in a class of forty. Tiie
faculty claim for Dr. Ball the finest
record made sinco the establishment
of the college 1839, a period of forty-
four years. South Georgia is giving
to flic state some of its brightest
lights and will perhaps bo known in
her contributions to foreign countries,
Dr. Ball has accomplished much
while yet in youth, and if blessed
with tong life will do a great and
good work, as lie is an earnest, con
secrated Baptist. Wearing the laurels
at twenty-throe, wo can safely hope
for much from our young brother, as
he expresses a willingness to yield
the pleasures of home and country
for.' the extension of the Masters
work in a foreign land, Success to
him!—L. M., in Baptist Watchman
It must be a good article that will in
ducc a man to go forty miles to get It
Mr. K. It. Sweatimm, of Fairfax Station
Va., says; a party came forty miles to his
store for Chamberlain’s Cough ftemedy
and bought a dozen bottles. "The Item-
edy Is a great favorite In this vicinity” he
says "and has performed some wonderful
cure* here." 1th. Intended especially for
Conghs. Colds, Croup and Whooping
Cough. For Bale by The Tifton Drug
Store.
Miss Morgan's Letter.
The following interesting excerpt
was taken front Misa Loula Morgan’s
letter published in tiie last issue of
the Baptist Watchman:
Wilunuham—This place lias no
organized Baptist church, hut a num
ber of whole-souled Baptist brethren
and sisters n ito made our visit de
lightful. There is a nice Sunday-
school kept up in a large hall, also a
“Children’s Band,’’'conducted by Alisa
Beulah Alford. Tiie ladies organized
a Woman’s Mission society of nine
members, with Alias AI. V. Alford as
president, and Alias B. B. Alford as
secretary. There was at this place
the host distribution in subscriptions
for the religious papers of tiie state
and tlio Foreign Aiissiott Journal that
I have made on tlio work. These
sisters aro thoroughly equipped with
literature. Tiie work is in the Mal
lory association. Thanks to Mr. and
Airs Alford for a pleasant home.
Svlvestee is a beautifully located
town, and lias broad streets and pret
ty homes, a neat academy, in which
Rev. Air. Wimberly has a lino school.
A plan for a handsome church is
drawn, and subscriptions amounting
to one-third tlio cost ltavo already
been taken up; Rev. J. W. Champion
is pastor, it has a line Sunday
school, and a newly organized Wo
man’s Aiissiott society of thirteen
members, of which Airs. .1. C. Priest,
is priesident and Alisa Alice Grant is
secretary. Tlicso sisters are enthusi
astic in helping to build tho new
church. If you ltavo a “brick” for
church building, send it to Mrs. C.
W. Wilder, treasurer. This work is
in the Mallory association. Airs.
Priest and Airs. Wilder made out-
visit very pleasant.
1sai!kj.i.a, three miles north of Syl
vester, is an old town, containing
some of the Mastor’s noblemen. Air.
J. II. Westberry carried Airs. W. A.
Allen, Airs. Priest and my self over to
Isabella in ins handsome carriage on
Monday morning. Wo bail the pleas
ure of calling at several homes ami
talking of the work. Rev. Air. Wim
berly, of Sylvester, is pastor of tlio
Baptist church. They ltavo a nice
Sunday school and Mission society.
The sisters will go on earnestly witli
their work. Alias Kittard, a girl of
fourteen, is an earnest consecrated
worker among them. 1 also had the
pleasure of meeting Judge Harris, a
friend and man of great benevolence.
Sumner, one of tiie first towns on
tlio Brunswick and Western, road
lias lost none of its influence, but itus
continued growing. Here is a splen
did school building and a large school
and Baptist church of nearly t!0tl
members; a splendid Sunday school
and Woman's Aiissiott society, orga
nized, January the first will) Mrs. J.
R. Edwards as president -and Miss
Katie McLeod as secretary. Rev. K.
T. Snell of Tifton, is tiie pastor, with
whom tlio peoplo arc delighted.
There will long remain many sweet
memories of the visit to Sumner and
tiie hospitality of Brother and Sister
Edwards. AIiss AloLeod will direct
the “Children’s Band” work.
Tv-Ty—Another of tho early
towns on the Brunswick and Western
There is no Baptist church here, hut
a large Methodist church, of which
Rev. Mr. Glenn is pastor. Tito sis
ters aro organized. There is only
one Baptist sister in the place. Sal
em has a large Baptist church, a fotv
miles above Ty-Ty. Dr. Picket mot
tiie train and took us to itis homo,
where he and Mrs. Pickett made our
visit exceedingly pleasant. These
two now on the sunset side of life,
are noted for their warm hearted
hospitality. Col. John Murrow’s
handsome resilience, witli much of
tho furniture was burned Monday.

After two <rr three yeare' experience with the credit sys

anxieties, I have determined to abandon It and do bus
iness
Strictly
For the Cash.
I proposo to carry a limited slock of STAPLE GRO ER
IKS AND PLANTATION SUPPLIES, and those buy
ing for cash will find it to their Interest to got my prices
before making their purchases.
The hanks aro now loaning money on the same col
lateral that la required to obtain credit of the merchants
and I am convinced that it la better for both buyer and
seller that farmers borrow money from this source and
pay cash for what they buy. Tho merchant avoids the
troiildo and expense of book keeping and collection, and
tho farmer obtains Ida goods at much lower prices.
