GETTING RICH
IN GEORGIA
How Cne Man Is Doing It on
Few Acres.
(Washington, D. C., Post.)
“Though money may be difficult to
borrow in New York, prosperity con
tinues in Georgia," said Claude N.
Bennett, who has just returned from
a month's vacation in his home state.
“The cotton crop is unusually good
nearly all over Georgia, while it is
poor in most other sections, thereby
making the price high. Georgia
highways and byways are beginning
to look like France—so carefully is
every foot of available land now cul
tivated. I noticed fine crops in many
places, which a few years ago were
given to weeds and bypaths; also that
an average of a bale of cotton to two
acres is now being raised on land
which a few years ago produced only
a bale to four or five acres. A bale
to the acre is not at all uncommon.
“An illustration of a successful ag
ricultural side line is the result of
the activity of Mr. John Moody, of
Oglethorpe county, who has 1 a scup
pernong arbor covering six acres. Ad
joining it are four acres in bunch
grapes and an acre of old-fashioned
muscadines, which have been trans
planted from the near-by woods,
where they grow wild. From these
eleven acres he sold last year $5,000
worth of table fruit, and vinegar.
“I went through his warhouse con
taining 1,500 barrels of scuppernong
and grape wine. He has also four
teen acres of apples. He has all
kinds of machinery for converting
these fruits into the most profitable
forms—including a cider press that
in one hour will turn 120 bushels of
apples into 360 gallons of cider. This
man is actually getting rich on a
«maller acreage than it takes to make
a one-horse farm.”
SEASON’S DELICACIES
DOUBLY ABUNDANT
Americus Epicures Are Fairly
Reveling Now.
At this beautiful blending of the
■seasons, when summer gives way to
joyous autumn, one fairly revels in
the good things common to both and,
gets about all that is coming to man
on this terrestrial mothball. Ameri
cus epicures are on to this fact, and
upon their tables the fruits of summer
harmonize with those first harbingers
» of fall, the fragrant mullet and the
oyster of early vintage. As sweet
reminders of summer, the local mar
ket is -well stocked with juicy, red
watermleons, with the tariff reduced
to fifteen cents, while reposing near
those rotund joy promoters the glint
of the yelow pumpkin and the car
mine blush of the September pome
granite, is easily discernible. The
snap beans and the toothsome tomato
are still in their glory here, vieing in
delicious perfection the northern pip
pin and the first yellow product of
Florida's groves. Verily, this beeth
the glad season, and Americus is the
place wherein to enjoy it.
(H it NATION AL DANGER.
Time to Cry a Halt Before a Panic
Comes.
The business spirit is crushing out
the sweeter element of home life. We
are in danger of a great commercial
decline, because men, as a whole,
think only of getting wealth.
There are thousands, both men and
women, who do not take time to eat
properly. They rush through life, and
as a result we have an age of indi
gestion, nervousness, irratibility,
sleepless nights and morose disposi
tion.
With the discovery of Mi-o-na tab
lets, there is no longer any excuse
for one to have ill health from stom
ach weakness.
Mi-o-na strengthens the walls of
the stomach, stimulates the liver and
restores muscular contraction to the
intestines and bowels, so no laxative
is needed.
Sich headache, palitation, bad taste
in the mouth, yellow skin, irritability,
coated tongue and melancholy are a
few of the many distressing results
of indigestion. Mi-o-na never fails
to dispel all these troubles.
Dodson’s Pharmacy sells Mi-o-na in
50 cent boxes and guarantees to re
fund the money if the remedy does
hot give complete satisfaction.

METALLIC ELLECTS IN TRIMMINGS
Some of the Latest Stylish Acces
sories to My Lady’s Toilet-Hints
as to What Is Being Worn that
Will Interest Our Readers.
(Special Correspondence Times-Re-
eorder.)
NEW YORK, Sept. 19. —Princess
and Empire effects are still worn
with much popularity. There is a
charm about an Empire dress if it is
made correctly, and the only notice- ■
able change is in the back, where the i
waist-line is slightly raised. Except j
for street wear, skirts are touching j
and trailing. In these two styles of j
dress nothing could be more grace- |
fui than a long trailing skirt with the j
waist lipe having the upward curve.
The Japanese sleeve has been such j
a favorite, that it is quite likely to I
remain fashionable through the win- j
ter months. The leg-o-'mutton sleeve }
will doubtless be used for tailor
mades. Sleeves of semi-Japanese j
shape are much longer, some reach- j
ing below the elbow, and others al- J
most to the wrist where they are j
gathered into a deep band of velvet, j
On many of the dressy toilettes, the
sleeves are made entirely of hem- j
stitched ruffles or inch wide Valen
ciennes and these usually reach below
the elbow to the wrist.
The severe and simple tailor suit
is still correct for “every day” wear.
The favorite model is the 30-inch
coat, and the instep-length plaited
skirt. Careful tailoring and choice
of material is more important for
their smartness than trimming. Some
of these suits have the edges bound
with braid.
Some New Trimmings.
In the new trimmings, the metalic
effects are conspicious especially
those for evening gowns. • The filet
lace is often made entirely of gold
and silver threads combined, and solid
worled dots of the same. A new lace
braid an inch and a half wide, has
twisted gold and silver threads in
a spider-web design. There are also
bands of net darned in a delicate de
sign in pastel colors, outlined with
silver and gold thread. Some of the
spangled Brussels net bands are cov
ered over with tiny spangles of gold,
silver, shaded pastel colors or black.
A very modish traveling suit worn
the other day by a pretty blonde, was
of dark blue foulerd figured
tiny white squares set diamond-wise. !
The jacket, having the kimona sleeve, |
was banded with plain blue. On
the left side of the kilted skirt, reach- j
ing from the belt to the knee, was a j
band of plain blue trimmed with but- j
tons. She wore a dainty lingerie |
blouse, round hat of cadet blue, with :
drooping brim, which was encircled j
with blue feathers.
Some of the new French broad- |
cloths show deep borders of velvet;
in a shade deeper than the material.
The Oriential patterns are especial
ly pretty and the floral effects are
flovely. Marquisettes are bordered
with velvet of self or contrasting col
ors, and are outlined occasionally
with silver and gold threads.
I’lnbrella Yells.
What are called umbrella veils |
are the latest accessories to the toil- j
ette. These are made round and j
the clots radiate from one central j
dot like the ribs of an umbrella.
There is a circular veil having a !
circle four inches in diameter in the j
center and increasing to large ones
that reach to the edge of the veil, j
Chenille dots are most favored, but
the double-faced velvet ones are some j
used.
Early fall hats are shown in block
ed felt beavers and velvets. For i
trimmings, velvet will be as popular
as it is in gowns, hut especially the
uncut velvet. Imitation of Persian
lamb makes a very smart effect, and
as it is very light, is excellent for i
both hat foundations and trimming, j
Fringed silk in ruches and bows J
is used lavishly, almost covering the j
top of some of the hats. The colors !
that are fashionable for hats are j
the same as for gowns. Purple is !
the leading favorite, with all its j
*h ades. The Atlantic blue is the j
leading color in blues, and amber,
caster and new rose are all popular
shades.
Lingerie blouses in soft pretty tones
of blue and pink and delicate green
and corn color are dainty and fash
ionable. Little house coats are pro
vided to wear with them, which are
cut on the Eton effect, hut with the ki
mona sleeves. The material for >
these is silk. The Eton is short in
the back, the sleeves come just be
low the elbow and are trimmed with
lace.

EVANGELICALS URGE
COMPLETE REUNION
At Coming General Conference
of Church.
READING, Sept. 19.—The General
Conference of the Evangelical Asso
ciation in the United States will hold
its annual session in Milwaukee, Wis.,
beginning Wednesday, October 3, and
it promises to be one of the most im
portant gatherings in the history of
the church.
Among the many subjects that will
be discussed is that of union between
the two branches of the Evangelicals
in this country, the breach in 1891
having torn the church asunder from
the Atlantic to the Pacific.
The contest was especially bitter in
eastern Pennsylvania, where the de
nomination is very strong, Berks
and Lancaster Counties having many
Evangelical churches.
The question of union has frequent
ly been agitated by conferences of
both branches, and the leaders in the
church think the time is now ripe to
effect the reconciliation. If union
succeeds, the denomination will be
one of the strongest in the community
of churches.
The question of lay representation
will also be brought before the con
ference. Lay representation equal to
ministerial is demanded in the legisla
tive bodies of the church.
IT IS SERIOUS.
Some Aniorious People Fail to Real
ize the Seriousness.
The constant aching of a bad back,
The weariness, the tired feeling,
The pains and aches of kidney ills
Are serious—if neglected.
Dangerous urinary troubles follow.
Americus citizen show' you how to
avoid them.
J. B. Edw'ards, farmer, living just
outside the corporation limits says:
“My back troubled me for years. Some
times it w*as so w'eak that 1 was un
able to stand up straight. There w r as
a constant dull pain that often awmke
me at night and the secretions were
out of order, being sluggish, scant
and thick. I had tried many differ
ent kinds of medicine when I first
got Doan’s Kidney Pills at J. G. Dod
son's drug store. They did what is
claimed for them in my case, and 1
am glad to recommend them to
others. The pains have left me, my
back is stronger and as I am resting
at night my general health is much
better. The secretions have lost that
gumy appearance and are more regu
lar. I am more than pleased with
this result.”

A Humane Appeal.
A humane citizen of Richmond, Ind.,
Mr. U. IJ. Williams, 107 West Main St.,
says: “I appeal to all persons with
weak lungs to take Dr. King’s New

helped me and fully comes up to the
proprietor’s recommendation.” It

croup, whooping cough, quinsy,

That our American rorests abound In
plants which possess the most valuable
medicinal virtues is abundantly attested
by scores of the most eminent medical
writers and teachers. Even the untu
tored Indians had discovered the useful
ness of many native plants before the
advent of the white race. This informa
tion, imparted freely to the whites, led
the latter to continue, investigations until
to-day we have a rich assortment of most
valuable American medicinal roots.
Dr. Pierce t>elleees that our American for
ests alltol in most valualde medicinal roots
foil the most obstinate and fatal dis
eases, if wivwohtdpropt'rly investigate them;
