CRAWFORDVILLE, JULY 1,1898.
Macon is to have a watermelon
eating on July -ltin
There arc some hut fan. in
•store for somebody politically.
Some counties in the state
report good rains and crops
srowiDBfinely '
The daily papers give us
occasional good item of news
from the war.
Our pooplo would bo more
proud of a good wetting rain
than to see Spain whipped.
The little revenue tax stamps
will have he to put on almost ev
ory business paper after to-day.
Heavy penalties are imposed if
the stamps are not used.
Mr. W. W. Davis has been ap
pointed captain in the U. S. V.
and ho has written to all the
members of , the , 1 aliaferro . Camp _
of Sons of Confederate Veterans
asking them to enlist in the
service.
There was never a more oppor
tune tune for all our people lo
observe the Itli of July than in
1898. Gov. Atkinson 1ms issued
his proclamation to that effect
and every citizen should in some
way show his patriotism on that
day or thereabout.
Hundreds of thousands have,
boon induced to try Chamber¬
lain's Cough Remedy by rending
what it has done for others, and
having tested its merits for
themselves are to-day its warm¬
est friends. For sale bv Dr. R.

The state convention in Allan
ta this week nominated a Demo¬
cratic stale ticket as voted for
on June 0th. A platform was
adopted urgiug tho winding up
of the war with S pain as soon as
possible. nfK - a ‘
plotfm'iu, urged a uniform
vote for state nominations and
praised the present public school,
now convict, and pension sys¬
tems.
The Atlanta Constitution has
this to say about weekly pa¬
pers: “No form or character
of publication gets us close to its
readers as the county or local
weekly. No publication has the
same intimate relations with its
subscribers. Other papers may
Ik* more widely read, but
are not as closely read, nor arc
they us faithfully preserved from
week to week The county
weekly goes into homes that
other current publications ever
reaches, and they are very sub
tantia! homes, too. ”
S OME persons say
it is natural for
them to lose flesh
during summer.
But losing flesh is losing
ground. Can you alford
to approach another win
ter in this weakened con
dition?
Coughs and colds,weak
throats and lungs, come
quickest to those who are
thin in Ucsh, to those ens
ily chilled, to those who
have poor circulation and
feeble digestion.
Scoffs
Emulssost
of cod iigtcr oil •with hypo
phosphites does just as
much good in summer as
in winter. It makes flesh
in August as well as April.
You certainly need as
strong nerves in July as in
January. And your weak
throat r.nd lungs should
be healed shd strength
ened without delay.

How much business can a man
do whose system is in a state ol
disorder? Headache is only a
symptom It is not a disease,
The pain in the head is the sign
of rebellion. There have been
mistakes in diet and other
abuses. Dr. Pierce's
f*elLet« are a gentle, effective
renovator and invigorator of
stomach, liver and bowels. They
assist nature without threatening
to tear the body pieoe-meal.
There are no griping pains, no
