( Every close observer has noted the tendency of young people raised on the farms to flock to the cities, and learned philosophers, armed with intellectual micro«copeir'ha’9^«* ou i^ ll diligently foriheeauee of ibis migration. To any one who has lived among farmers of high and low degree the reason is as apparent as the nose on his face. To an ambitious young man with the world before him farm life is slow and semi-isolated, and farm folks do not appear to be well informed and up-to date like townspeople He would lake to mingle with the live,, bright men and women he sees in the city and “be somebody/’ He wants to get out ol the week life of the farm and into the everyday life of the city ; out of the furrow and into the sidewalk , out of stogies and into ausset gaiters. In the cities the young people di vide the year into school days and va cation. In the country they divide it Into school days and work days. The city naan reads his morning and even ing papers, and the young people learn what has occurred all over the . world during the last six hours. The farmer reads has weekly and hia young people learn what happened last week. The city naan has lire latest general news and the latest information respecting his business or profession delivered to him not lees than twice each day, and this makes him alert, quick and decis ive. He looks bright and thoroughly informed, and be is; and so are his chaldreu. And spirited young country children aspire to bo like them. Can we blame them?—Rome Tribune. Marbury on the Weather. . The present weather is the most sultry and oppressive for this time of the year that has been recorded by the weather bureau io many years, so Forecaster Marbury ol Atlanta says. Mr. Matbury cannot find in his past reoorda r. time when it was quite as warm and humid at this 'time of the year as it is now. The atmospheric conditions continue in a most unsettled state over the en tire map, except in the extreme north west. The pressure is now highest in Florida and along the immediate At lantic coast and lowest in the west. These conditions are favorable for continued warm weather, with more or less rain in this section during the next 36 hours. CASTonrA. fho he- z? -- „ ilails X-TV s/tFj . sr FOR RENT.

Brewer assumes all debts due by Brewer & Hanleiter and all debts due to Brewer & Hanleiter to be paid to W. H. Brewer. W. H. BREWER, W. R. HANLEITER. Griffin, Ga., Dec. 17,1897.

An experienced and highly respected physician gave a valuable nint the other day, which all may find valuable. “I am convinced," said he, “not only from prac tical personal experience, but on the theo retically sclentinc grounds also, that a safeguard against much prevalent summer illneaa lies in the free use of lemon Juice.’ —Athens Banner-Watchman.

An Irishman was hauling water in barrels from a small river to supply the inhabitants of the village, which i was not provided with waterworks, ; says Tit Bite. As be halted at the top i of the bank to give a “biow” before I proceeding to peddle the water, a gen- • tiemao of the inquisitive type rode up, r and after passing the time of the day, i asked: r "How long have you been hauling i water for the village, my good man? ’ “Tin years or more, sor,” was the re ply. “Ah! And how many loads do you make a day?” “From tin to fifteen, accordin’to the ' weather, sor.” * “Yea. Now, I have one for you, • Pat,” said the gentleman, laughing, I “How much water have you hauled al ’ together?” ’ The Irishman jerked his thumb in the direction of the river, at the same 5 time giving his team the bint to start, * and replied: “All the water that yez don’t see 1 there now, sor.” Blood Poison Cured- r There is no doubt, according to the many remarkable cures performed by B Botanic Blood Balm (“B. B. B.”) that it is b far the best Tonic'and Blood Purifier ever manufactured. All others pale into insig nificance, when compared with it.

I applied to a physician at once, and his treatment came near killing me. r I employed an old physician and then s went to Kentucky. I then went to Hot Springs and remained two months. Noth ing seemed to cure me permanently, al -1 though temporary relief was given me. I returned home a ruined man physically, with but little prospect of ever getting w ell I was persuaded to try Botanic Blood 1 Balm (B. B. B.) and to my utter astonish ment it quickly healed every ulcer. Z, T. Hallerton, Macon, Ga. fI.B.CLEVELftNO Real Estate Agent. Business Promptly Attended to.
