ADVOCATE-DEMOCRAT. «5 Tt is said that Walker county farmers realize $ 200,000 per year on strawberries. The reports ot new cotton factories in Georgia towns are becoming numerous. Georgia division of the Con¬ federate Veterans will hold a re¬ union iu Savannah Nov. 22, 23, and 24. 185)5). The city by the sea will treat them all right. Will Lucas, colored, has been found guilty of the assassination of Mr. Robert.. F. Davis near Decatur, and he has been sentenced to iifoimprisonment. Prof. Jno. D. Sharp, an excellent young teacher of Oglethorpe county was drowned ; while seeuing near his home on Long Creek a few days ago. The Savannah Press wants gambling suppressed. The Sparta Ihmaelite will join it, in the crusade if all forms of gambling are included. It is simply iniquitous to confine punishment for gambling to negroes and poor whites, while gambling for great stakes among “leading .. - M U 'DronjiC." uutfew communities liable to the disgraceful reproach of such discriminastion. People who travel the roads in this county who have been over tin* roads in other counties claim that Taliaferro rosds are in a worse condition than any they see. We are not proud to make this statement. Our roads should be well worked. Noth¬ ing adds as to much the value of kind, stock and vehicles as roads. The commissioners in Oglethorpe have wisely advised thut the roads be worked good il it requires the 15 days allow »'d bv law to accomplish tho end. During the civil war, as well ns in our late war with Spain, diarrhoea was one of the most troublesome diseases the army had to contend with. In many instances it became chronic and the old soldiers still suffer from it. Mr. David Taylor of Wind Ridge. Greene Co., Pa., is one of these. He uses Chamberlin’s Cholic. Cholera, and Diarrhoea Remedy and says he never found anything that would give him such quick relief. It is for sale bv . Dr .. „ R. J. . Reid, „ . , ^ ( rawfordville. , , ...

Their warehouse is large and their charges as reasauoble as any Nixty-i our t v 3gl The Birmingham .uPM makes the statement that is selling at 64 cents per pound in the dry goods stores of the South, while at the warehouses it brings only 5 cents per pound. He figures that the South got 10 cents of the amount be ! paid the milliner, reckoning 5 cents to the farmer and the same amount to the merchants, . . 54 ■ remaining cents went I north in the shape of freights, ! cost of manufacture and profits to the manufacturer. Crude cotton, he argues, turned into standard sheeting sells for 20 cents per pound. | The obvious conclusion from these . figures . tills IS South will remain a vast poor [ house so long as she neglects to j take every advantage of her resources. There are some women who seem to be perennially youthful. The grown daughters are com¬ panions as well as children, and the color in the mother’s cheeks, the brightness in her e.yes, the roundness of her form, all speak of abounding health. What is her secret? She is at the middle age of life when so many women are worn, wasted and faded, and yet time has only ripened her charms. The secret of this ma tronly health and beauty may be told in the brief phrase, Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. The general health of woman is so intimately related to the local health of the delicate womanly organs, that where these are diseased, the whole body must suffer. “Favorite Prescription I i dries the debillitating drains, heals uaceration and infiammaton, cures female weakness and to the delicate female organs natural vigor and vitality, Women who have lost their health and their beauty have been made “robust and rosy cheeked’’ by the use of this marvelous medicine. Value of Hie Local Paper. The following is worth read ing and digesting: Senator Da vis, of Illinois, is quoted as say ing: “Each year every local newspaper gives from $500 to *5,000 in -’ jee lines for the bene fit of tne commu nityJ n which can nor will do this. The editor, in proportion to his means, does more for his town than any oth er man, and in all fairness lie ought to be supported, not be cause you like or admire his writ iugs, but because a local news paper is decidedly the best ad¬ vertisement a community can have. It may not be crowded with great thought, but financial¬ ly it is more of a denefit than teacher or preacher. A Mother Tells How Mie Saved Her Little Dautrhter’s Life.

He and his father were cutting corn, when the boy called his father’s attention to a large snake lying close by. Booker at once cut its head off, and upon looking aronnd discovered another snake. He also cut its head off and in the excitement stepped on the severed head and was badly bitten by it. —Philadelphia Ledger.
