The great bnrden ?jf. periogs was the idea that the whis perers did not^krjdw whal to get for -their ■ various relatives - and Mends, and as the ReCoBDeB man had been in that-predicamcnt many, times, he knew how-to appreciate the Situatipn, aqd he "determined, if it was iu his powers to relieve-the perplexities of our readers by thor oughly investigating- the holiday market and give them all the points. ViUiql'.Wiltb this ideay'he- yester day strolled Into Mr, p. B. Hill’a furniture store, and after taking an inventory of its contents he felt satisfied that ho had found what, bo and his thousands of readers want ed. He- found there articles not only handsome and useful, but just wb%t wps wanted for suitable,holi day presents in this, practical age, •where ffljbfftg&yafc cAlKWife to* sufficient. . r _ Mr. Hill has certainly taken into consideration the tastes and purses of all people, for in bis atock wo find goods of all classes and prices. Starting in the front, we find ja beautiful line of silver-ware, includ ing cake baskets, card receivers, castors, table ware, bouquet hold ers, CupSj goblets, etc., gU of which are suitable for gifts. Then we find a fine line of clocks, handsome enough to adorn tiny mantel. Fine glass and chiiia ware in new and handsome styles, pretty as a pic ture. And speaking of pictures, we saw some handsome .oil -paint ings, elegantly framed, wbioh have heretofore sold for $15, now offered for $0. Then there are brackets, broom holders, book shelves, musio stands, and a thousand and one beautiful and artistic little tricks in wood. Nor must wc forget the handsome painted tin water setts for they would bo an ornament to any chamber. But it was the furniture that most excited our admiration. There are parlor and chamber suites in every style, from the handsome marble-top to the plain pine. Then there are chairs of all designs, front the upholstered rooker to the plain split bottom. Besides there are tables of all styles and. prices stands, cabinets, wardrobes, stools, etc., to fill the eye and purse of all, As we walked through this pal ace of beautiful things wo could not but think how well tho useful and ornamental were combined and what a bint was ther'Oin con tained to those wishing .to make holiday gifts. A gift, to ba prop erly appreciated, must combine the useful and the beautiful, and where can 4 you find these two qualjties better combined than in &l hand some article of furniture, silver, glass or china ware 1 Such a gill la tar more appreciated than the tawdry and expensive artieies-ihat hare no use and whose beauty soon fades. For this reason wc advise every reader of the Recorder to visit the furniture store of. D. B. Hill befojra they select ii^ihtr holi day present*, and we are sure they will thank us for giving them the advice after they have once looked over his stock. That our Americus readers may the morc'fully appreciate Mr. Hill’s enterprise and the magnitude or his stock, wc will mention the fact that within the past few weeks he Thomasvilie, Quitman and Florida, entering into competition with all the principal mirkets of the State. Vinegar Poisoning. Friday Bogg Chapman bought . pan of souse meat from Bill PibhW/toi 'Messrs.' Ledstnger and Henry Johnson being present ate a piece. Afterwards the family of Mr. Chapman ate quite freely, and all who ate of it were made UletkM Sami niTkim, and bat Par. “Yoft9Hffiif#pSfod'teVinteen to beall - ' Something similar to the above c:m be heard as you pass almost any Btore, bar, or billiard room. It sjibtrs the grand, passipp of the South—throwing dice and -raffling. Lm. pjyj. tae'‘pa8t ten , qr fifteefr days; a goodly,portion of" the people of this ’city have done' nothing but t£row dice, dream of dice, and al most eat dice. , We mean by this that every leisure moment has been devoted to that all-absorliing ma nia—raffling. It is wofth one’s, while V> stand on the edge of a crowd and see the various and sometime*' ingenious devices to “get eveii” that some pf the boys. make. An unfortunate speculator if be sees that the dice have been rnnning low, will make side bet-, that thirteen, fourteen, and sometimes fifteen, will be beat, before the throw has gone roqqd. It is noteworthy -that-the tun of the dice generally arc in grooves, If six persons are throwing and number one starts with a throw of to clve he is very liable to be beaten by a fifteen or sixteen throw. We have seen seventeen tied three times, and then in the throw off pine has won. It 1b remarkable what good luck some poop o will have and what poor luck other peop o possess. We have seen a tacky man throw twenty times and never;throw un der ten, and an unlucky man throw the same number of times and never go over twelve or thirteen. Timid people,rarely win, while those with p enty of nerve rarely lose. In a crowd the other day some old man whojwas a good ehurch member and who, when young, was quite a gambler, was asked to throw against seventeen. He was old and feeble, and when he took op the box his hands trembled, To the surprise of everybody he threw eighteen, the highest possi bio throw. Little negro boys are often chosen by some ono who is “in” on the turkey to throw, and their good luck is so proverbial that dico throwers have learned to fear them. „ In big raffles sometimes the dies run strong. Forty-two i* often thrown in three throws, but forty- nine, we believe, has never been thrown but once, when anything of any worth was at atakc. The lucky man who throws forty-five is foolish to sell out, as he, will not be beaten once In a hundred throws. When tho dico arc square it takes a big run of lnek to go over three fiftoens. Most people are superstitious about tho way dice are turned over. Many shake them tour or five mlnntes, bnt no one is afraid of those throws. Experience has taught old hand* that to quietly turn them over without shaking, is the best way, for.it is said that thoy then run big or little—that is, you get a big throw or a very small ono. To shake them moderately, it is said will result in ten or twelve. ANNOUNCEMENTS- Call Co Oojr 9 Ami settlo that longstanding account ocUd gaUwedtf Agnes Aycock. About ipoiliaR.
