THE &MERICUS WEEKLY TIMES-BECORDER: FRIDAY, JANUARY 21, 1893. EBICUS TO BEND DELEGATES if Convention of Badnui Hen in Atlanta Deb. 11th. America* trill be represented in the n vention of bnelncss men of the state i held in Atlanta on Feb. ltth, (or the purpose of foateriog minor indns trie* and discussing the question of tax reduction. The meeting ia a moat important one, and every city in Geor gia will be represented by a delegation «f bnaineas men. Mayor Hixon has not yet appointed delegates to represent Americas, but this will be done in ample time to in sure a good representation for tbc gate city of southwest Georgia. In this connection a rather amusing incident occurred yesterday. Mayor Hixon received official notice from the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, re questing the appointment of delegates from this city. By the same mail President G. W. Glover, of tho Amer icas Board of Trade, received a simi lar notice, and was likewise requested to see to it that Amerions was repre- . seated in the convention. Mayor Hixon immediately appointed President Glover a delegate, with an thority to select two others, while that gentleman in the meantime had con ferred a similar honor upon Mayor Hixon, neither knowing that the other had been invested with authority to Sot. But Americas will send up a delega tion, and every effort will be mado to secure the legislation desired. To re more the exisiting tax on newly estab lished industries means much for Georgia, and will secure the location of many enterprises which, in a few years, wonld prove a source of vast wealth for; the Empire State of the Sonth.

I returned home a ruined man phyaieally^with but lit tle prospect of ever getting well. I was persuaded to try Botanic Blood Balm (B. B.

Wottcn, recently of Jaucsville, Wisconsin, has accepted a call to tho rectorship of Calvary Epis copal church of this city, and will im mediately enter upon his labors here. This announcement will be gratifying alike to members of that congregation and the general public. The call was extended by the vestry men of the chnrch at a meeting on Thnrsdny night, and yesterday was accepted by Mr. Wotten. The new rector conducted services at Calvary on Sunday last, and so favor able was tbe impression made that the chnrch immediately determined to call him as rector, whioh place has been vacant since the departure of Bev. W. W. Walker some time since. Mr. Wotten will bring bio family here at once, occupying the pretty rectory on Lee atreet, and regular services may be expected at Calvary hereafter. Bnt the Damsel’s Father Beats Him By a Neck. It was a lively race fora pretty bride that was made to the office of Jndge A. C. Speer, of the oourt of ordinary, yet terday morning, bnt paterfamilias won by a neck, and a pretty girl and ardent lover are now widely separated and their plana frustrated by “popper's” cunning. Love lsnghedat locksmiths, bnt the old man fairly grinned as be thought of the proverb “he laagbs best who laughs Isst.” It was at an early hour that a gentle man, the father of one of the prettiest girls in this region, entered Jndge Speer’s office and i«M him of a contem plated runaway in which his daughter was to play a star part. She waa not of age, ami therefore the father forbade Judge Speer issuing a marriage license The old gentleman had scarcely left the building ere the groom-prospective showed up and demanded the license. It was a heart stab, bnt Judge Speer told him of the orders given by the girl's father. Borneo was dazed for a moment, never dreaming that the pro- poaed elopement had been discovered. Now ho mnst resort to stratagem.' The ardent swain left tho office. His scheme would work, dead sure. A half hour later a third party called and demanded a marriage license for a “colored couple" but w hen Jndge Speer asked for the names his surprise can be imagined when those of the yonthfnl lovers, whose marriage had been forbidden, were given him. He merely winked his off eye and put away the ready pen. The young swain is disconsolate over the unexpected turn of affairs, while “popper" doubtless wouders what he ia going to do next MB.

CAN’T GET REST. Sleeplessness Common Among the Aged. THIN, PALE7 INACTIVE BLOOD THE CAUSE. Restful Sleep from Better Bluod Supply. Paine's Celery Compound Fills the Arteries. Red Multiplies Number of Corpuscles. There sre degrees of sleeplessness from the wide-awake state to the sleep which docs not refresh and has in it only the mockery of rest. Such sleep ia not tired nature's sweet restorer. Dreams have ;>ower to torture and to depress. Sleep, therefore, not always rest, bnt t'onble, and troubled sleep brings to the brain worker loss of power for thought and labor. It is a well known fact that for auy part to perform actively its duties, it mnst have an abundance of blood; bnt wheu tho power of loenlly regulating tbe sapply of blood in the brain is im- paired because of insufficient nerve power the tired bruin grinds the same old grist over and over till nervous prostration, paralysis or hysteria ensues. The cause of sleeplessness is so clear that the cure is equally apparent. The nerves must recover their grip. The health-wrecking laxity of the blood vessels must be corrected. The an swer to how this is to be done is: Feed the exhausted nerve tissues with I’aine's celery compound. By thus acting on the nerves Paine’s celery compound is abln to regulate the blood supply and iiermanently banish sleeplessness that shortens so many lives, especially among those beyond middle age. In addition to this indi rect control over the cireniation,Paine’s celery compound direetiy increases the amount of blood in the arteries and aronses the pnrifying organs to drive ont impurities that often lark in it un developed for years till age or a “run down” condition allow them to get the npper band. A pale, languid woman ia not more of a lady than a rosy, robust one. Women leading lives of imperfect health, with pains and aehoa running riot through their “run down” bodies, are often ignorant of the feet that it is not a specific for nervousness or rheu matism or stomach trouble that they need, bnt fundamental building np of every tissne of their bodies and thorough cleansing of their blood. Tbe strengthening of the constitution and the eradication of latent disease that Paines uelery compound achieves leaves no fear of that treacberons partial r«' eovery that keeps one always afraid of relapse and sadden break down.

Paine's oelery compound ia especially valuable for reorniting the strength and spent energies of men and women advanced in years. It ia the one prep aration eonsidered worthy tbe name of a true nerve food and blood remedy by physicians throughout the country. It is prescribed by them in every state in the Union to tone up the system, regulate the nerve* and restore health and strength. Election of Lodge Officer*.
