The child was Miller's father's brothet—ir.— ' aw and Miller s own uncle, for he was a brother of bi I stepd inghter. Miller's | father's wife —his stepmother—also I had a son, who was, of course. Miller’s I brother, and incidentally Miller’s grandchild, he, was the son of * Miller’s daughter. Thus Miller’s own J wife was his mother's mother and Miller became his wife’s grandchild at the same time. And then, to top the 1 whole thing off, as the husband of his ’ grandmother, he was hi* own grand- t father. Half Rates to Barnesville. Account of Chautauqua, the Central of ( Georgia Railway will sell excursion tick- j ets at rate one fare round-trip, July Ist to i 'th inclusive, with final limit July 10th 1899. Attractions of special interest have ‘ been announced for the occasion. A Western inventor ha* perfected! what he calls a tornado destroyer. It ' is a cannon mounted on a pivot, with a wind vane and an air trigger, says i the Savannah News. The weather ; vane i* for the purpose of aiming the cannon. As the tornado approaches, ( according to the inventor, the cannon • will be automatically aimed directly at the funnel-shaped cloud, and whin the velocity of the wind reaches sixty . 1 five miles an hour the trigger will be ' snapped and the cannon discharged ■ i the projectile throwing the funnel off i 1 its balance and breaking up the storm | into a harmless zephyr. To our mind, there is one fault to be found with I this apparatus As is very well known, those tornadoes are big whirl-winds; they travel ; n a circle. By the time the velocity of the wind reaches sixty five miles, the point at which the deto nation would occur, the cannon might be sweeping around the circle at a j rate that would give the shivers to all | (hose who chanced to be within | range His Life Was Saved. Mr. J. E. Lilly, a prominent citizen of Hannibal, M-., lately had a wonderful, T;- liverance from a frightful death. In tell ing of it he says : “I was taken with ty phoid fever, that ran into pneumonia. My lungs became hardened. I was so weak I couldn't even sit up in bed. Nothing help ed me. I expected to soon die of Consump tion, when 1 heard of Dr. King’s New Discovery. One bottle gave great relief. I continued to use it, and now am well and strong. I can’t say too much in its praise.” This marvellous medicine is the surest and quickest cure in the world tor all Throat and Lung Trouble. Regular sizes 50 cents and SI.OO. Trial botttes free at J.

Tim, you are looking real pros perous,” he said. ‘‘You must be having a i profitable season at Albany.” ■'Oil, yes, senator: ’ replied Tim. "I can’t complain.” "Well, now—tell me, Tim.” said Depew, “are these stories true about all this crooked business in the legislature?” •‘On the dead level, senator,” was Tim's answer, ‘‘now, I’ll tell you.

LAND POOR. A Scheme to Give Every Man a Farm, by a Person Who is Land Poor. ' I ' idea that land was the safest investment i that a man could make in Georgia, and as ; a consequence, I am now land poor; have more than I can profitably make use of, and consequently want to get rid of some, or all of it, and I have decided to adopt the following measure to get rid of it: I will say,in the first place, that the land is the best in Monroe county, is fine ly watered, and is adapted to raising cat tle, sheep and hogs, and is the best for cotton, corn, wheat, oats and other grains in the county. There are a number of tenant houses on the place, and a home recently built that cost me over $3,000 to build. The land, in the first place, cost me from $25 down to $4 per acre—saying altogether, about $lO per acre, without improvements; and to get rid of it, I will average the whole place at $lO per acre, in the following way : I will have the entire place, 1,600 acres, sub-divided into 50-acre lots, at $lO per acre, giving more than 50 acres to one party, if desired, and less than 50 to another, according to his ability to pay for it, as the case may be, the entire quantity to be drawn for. In other words, the number of lots and quantity of land to be put in a hat or box, and drawn out under approval of a com mittee of gentlemen, at some stated time, so that all shall have a fair chance to get a home at a low price, and no one has a chance of losing their m iney, or failing to get their value, as paid, and some get a , farm at far less than cost The land is 12 miles from Macon, a city of some 50,000 or 60,000 people, and is adapted to nnuket gardening, and for p it offefsafine opportunity for a colony of energetic citizens. It is all together, and would make a fine settlement, having the best <>f pastures, water, springs, creeks, etc. The land is timbered with hickory, beach, oak and pine, and some cedar; in fact, it is the best place 1 know of, and T am satisfied the ed itor of the Call Will vouch for what 1 say- I would be glad to have any parties who mean business, to go over the plantation, familiarize themselves with the advan tages, and communicate with me at Barnesville, before going into the matter, assuring them that I mean what I say. In addition to the terms offered above, I have concluded to make the terms of pay ment in four annuai payments without interest, which is tantamount to putting the price of the land very low. The titles to the land have been in the posses sion oi one or two parties for years, and have never been questioned and are as | good as gold. I am not particularly wedded to this plan of getting rid of my lands, but only suggest the idea —any better plan would b j thank fu 11 v su bsti t uted. S. B. BURR, Sr, Barnesville, Ga. !
