Will Present i HumUome Appearance.
An architectural jjem!
That is what it will be!
The wails are being reared rapidly!
Very lew of our citizens realize the
magnitude of the jail enterprise now
rapidly materializing.
Sometime since the grand jury called
attention to, and many of our citizens
who are familiar with the situation agree
with them that the present building was
too small, with had sanitary conditions,
and moreover it is not what you could,
in tlie strictest acceptation of the term,
call an absolntelysecure place of confine
ment.
The county of Sumter, with its large
population, its really great wealth and
its progress in every laudable direction,
could not afford to have a jail that breeds
disease and death, that was out-grown
years ago
It is generally admitted that the
sheriff, the bailiff and jailer are all of
them humane and faithful officials are,
doing the best they cau do tinder such
unfavorable conditions, but they can't
be supposed to work miracles.
This will show the public that the
building of a jail that was adapted to
our multiplying necessities was very
commendable and the energy could not
have been devoted to a more worthy
project.
Sumter county can point with just
pride before many more months to the
most imposing and decidedly the hand
somest jail in the state.
Its foundations will offer some idea of
the complete edifice.
It will rise two stories in the air; will
bo constructed out of compact masonry;
will be well vcutilated; well lighted,;
comfortably arranged in its internal ar
rangement and the whole will be satis
factory and handsome.
The jailer's house will form an L pro
jection, running south. The jailer's
house will be neatly furnished and will
present <|uito an attractive appearance.
Sumter county will find an unfailing
source of pride in her new jail and chal
lenges the state to show one that will
compare to it in its outward appear
ance or inward arrangement.

Major IV. L. Glessner arrived in Amor-

Georgia.
"\es,” said he, “the people up there

make Georgia their home. I fixed for
three excursions from Oldo—one to come
in January, another in February, and
the third in March "

LUNC DISEASES
Are more successfully treated with Ayer's Cherry Pectoral than with any other medicine,
For colds, coughs, bronchitis, and other affections of tlie vocal organs, this is the most
prompt and effective remedy. It relieves asthma aud prevents consumption.
“ Twenty years ago 1 was troubled with a
disease of the lungs. Doctors afforded no
rellel, and said that I could not live many
months. I commenced using Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral, and, before I had finished one
bottle, found it was helping me. I con
tinued to take tlie medicine until I was
cured.''—Samuel Griggs, Waukegan, III.
“The merits of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral
cannot bo over-estimated. It allays Inflam
mation aud soreness of the throat and lungs
and curea a cough when all other medicines
fall. I speak from an extended experi
ence with those affections and their reme
dies.” — H. L. Smith, City Editor “ Helena

Says editorially: “I received from A.
K. Hawkes, of Austin, a pair of his
C’rystalizcd Lons spectacles, and I must
say I wus surprised to find them so
transparent and fine. I consider these
spectacles the best in existence, and can
highly recommend them to all those
who are obliged to use glasses. I be
lieve that these lenses, really preserve
tho eyes, and not like bo many inferior
and badly ground glasses do, injure the
sight. O. Diktzkl,

Why ? Because they’re languid, cross

The Artesian Corner Stoves are fitted
