The baU'M tumult—allegorical.

^understood and anathematised, instead
,f esiiing forth kind pity as tho wail of a
lamb and helpless animal should.
Hi>s fresh, young palato is conuinilnawxi
ritb sour milk; he is swathed in uncomfort-
ihie ill-fitting garments, made by maiden
•ants not for him. but for the ideal, arche-
vDa i* infant, which existed only in the
niirds of the well-intentioned needle-women,
„i4 each maiden aunt of necessity had a
liiUnct type of baby in her eye. Pause for
, moment, pray, and imagine the discomfort
if wearir' garments, made pt different
teriods of time, by various amateur tailors,
nbo have never seen you. To a hardy,
rigorous man this would bo painful in the
.Jtrrme; to a weak, puny infant jt must be
linolute torture, when at the same time the
•hild’s teeth are sprouting through it-* in-
ianud gums, and its cheeks are covered
liick with a rash.

A Sermon Npolled,
[Now York Sun.]
“What seems to be the nmttei f’ he asked,
mildly, os they were returning from church;
“didn’t you enjoy the sermon?’*
“Enjoy the sermon?'* she repeated, shortly,
“and that odious Jlrr. Smith sitting directly
in front of me with a now fall \vrui> on that
never cost a cent less than $1:?5. You must
tli ink I have a very warm religious tempera

'•Sow, who doei ho look like?” IV hen his
hatchelor unde presents his watch to him
;o be blown open by bis tired lungs, and his
father, proud of bis offspring, makes hkfoous
face- at him. Think of tho misery of tho
little being fresh from tho angels; in a hot
room, under the blankets, left to tha tender
nireyof a stout monthly nurse, hardened
by contact with a constant succession of
iuch little angels.
These trials through, our mannikin is put
into short clothes, these a legacy from
bis elder brother. Now, his serious tor
tures begin. His idlest brother ’taunts
aim with wearing cast-off clothing, and
feeding him with copper cents; or maylinp
allows him to piny with tho tig Noah’s ark,
and tha artless creature, feeling his way into
lie realities of tho world, sucks the purple
paint irom the camels, ami the red and yel
low spots from tho tigers nnd guinea pigs.
His nose is thereupon held by merciless
umds and a nauseous draught administered
to him. Tho way nnd wherefore of this in
sever explained to him; an ex parto hearing
s held, and on tho evidcucj of the elder
brother, tho criminal, nnd the real testi
mony of the pnint smears upon t.io little
.\we-bud of n mouth, judgmont is delivered
tnd executed before any one can say “Jack

FIHHT POSITION. THE MANE IDEA.
The first object of every equestrian is
much tho same ns everybody else’* in life,
“llow to got on.”
And to “get on” you must bo in tho best
ficssible position. Supposing the horso
quite still, let tho equestrian student place
himself on tho left, side of tho horse, facing
tho tail, and with his back towards the
horse’s head.
To tiegin with, catch hold of tho mane.
This is tho leading or mono idea. As a
rule, a mnno is objectionable; tho loss there
is of it tho better for appearance, though
not for use.

About September first we shall move into

our new store, at the old stand, Bailow Block,
Public Square, where we shall open the post
elegant assortment of goods in our line ever
brought to Southwest Georgia. At our pres
ent store on Cotton Avenue, we have a large
stock of Watches, Clocks and Jewelry, »Solid
Silver and Plated Ware, Pianos, Organs and
•Sewing Machines, and everything else usually
kept in a Jewelry and Music Store, that must
be reduced to save moving and make room
for new goods. Therefore, for the next
Twenty Days, or until we move, will sell any
thing we have in stock at prices lower than
have ever been reached before
FOR CASH I

Remember we have great bargains to offer for
CASH and the time in whieh to secure them
is limited. Come one, come all, and don’t
