Some pretty young fruit or¬ chards between here and Augus¬ ta along the Georgia Railroad. New ginneries have been erect¬ ed iu nearly every section of Georgia this year. Queer short on cotton and long on gin¬ neries. It is said that one acre sown iu wheat will make two to three tons of excellent hay. The prop¬ er time to cut the wheat is when the heads are in the dough. The Union Point Manufactur¬ ing ComY>any have already enlarged their factory,—dou¬ bling the number of its machines and will, during the next few months, begin making it three times its original size. In addi¬ tion to this enterprise being a success, financially, it has given enploymeut to a great number of our people, both here and of other places.—Herald-J ournal Judge D. B. Sanford contribu¬ ted to the Milledgeville Union & Recorder, of last week, an article giving ten reasons why tho Ishmaelite inclines to the opinion that county courts add largely county expenses, and that would be wise to dispense with them.—The county courts how¬ ever are some different from the so called ‘‘city court” like in force in Oglethorpe county. Be Careful No woman can be too careful of her condition during the period be¬ fore her little ones are born. Neglect or improper treatment then endan¬ gers her life and that of the child. It lies with her whether she shall suffer unnecessarily, or whether the ordeal shall be made comparatively easy. She had better do nothing than do something wrong. MOTHER'S FRIEND Is the one and the only preparation that is safe to use. It is a liniment that penetrates from the outside. External applications are eternally right. Internal medicines are radi¬ cally wrong. They are more than humbugs—they endanger life. Mother’s Friend helps the muscles to relax and expand naturally—re¬ lieves morning sickness—removes the cause of nervousness and head¬ ache—prevents hard and rising breasts—shortens labor and lessens the pains—and helps the patient to rapid recovery. From a letter by a Shreveport, La., woman: “I have been using your wonderful reinedv. Alotii££ls>J£aMA Auffiista’s Progress. It has been several months since we visited Augusta, and there is a marked improvement there during that time. We see a large number of new and mod¬ ern buildings going up, and the general stir and business air the people have taken upon them gives it the appearance of a mod¬ ern city in every sense of the ex¬ pression. Augusta has always had advan¬ tages that if she used would make her far ahead of many southern cities that blow bigger horns than Augusta. We are proud to see the new life being taken on by the city of the Sa¬ vannah valley and look for a brighter future for her. A childless home is a cheerless home. The maternal instinct exists in every woman, and when it is ungratified she is deprived of much of the happi¬ ness of life. It often happens that childlessness is due to some cause which can be removed, and often is removed by the use of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip¬ tion. The vigor and vitality which this remedy imparts to the delicate womanly organs, puts them in a condition of normal health, the lack of which is often the sole obstruction to maternity. Every woman should read Dr. Pierce’s Common Sense Medical Adviser, a book contain¬ ing 1008 pages and 700 illustra¬ tions. It is sent entirely free on receipt of stamps to pay expense of mailing only. Send 21 one cent stamps for the paper bound volume, or 81 stamps for cloth covered. Address Dr. R.V. Pierce, 668 Main Street, Buffalo, N. Y. Daughters of the Confederacy. A call was made for a meeting of the ladies for the purpose of forming a Chapter of the Daugh¬ ters of the Confederacy. 14 names were enrolled as charter members—application was made for charter and very soon the Chapter will be organized. We publish below the objects of this association and we trust our women will all feel a duty in grand and glorious work aud they will become Daughters. Our.women of Crawfordville been engaged in this work name of Memorial Association and have raised to the Con¬ federate dead a monument tells of their love for the Con¬ federacy. Now let the Daugh¬ ters take up the History of the veterans as they—the veterans give it and the daughters will preserve much that otherwise would be lost. Object of the Association of the Daughters of the Con¬ federacy : Article 2nd—The objects of this Association shall be social, benevolent, historical and mem¬ orial. To accomplish these purposes it will seek: First—To bring into its organization all women, through out the state who are qualified for membership in its local Chapters, and to unite these women by similar ties of loyalty to memories aud principles as are‘seen to together Confed¬ erate Veterans. Secoud—To fulfill the duties of sacred charity towads Con¬ federate Veterans and their descendants. Third—To collect and preserve material fora true history of the war between the Confederate States and the United States of especially deeds of heroism of Southern women; to unite w 7 ith the Confederate Veterans in the determination that American history shall be properly taught in public schools of the state and to use its influ euce towards attaining this object in all private schools. Fourth— To erect monuments to the heroes of the Confederacy A aJ JfcrU- _L jaL. • Bears the The Kind You Haw Always Bought Signature •f Messrs. A. B.

During the winter of 1897 Mr., ReeS, one of the leading citizens and merchants of Clay, Clay Co.. W.

He was treated byl physicians, also used several if kinds of liniment and two and half gallons of whiskey in bath ing it, but nothing gave any re lief until he began using Cham berlin’s Pain Balm. This brouught almost a complete cure in a week’s time and he believ es that had he not usdd this rem edy his leg would have had to be amputated.

I their Zealand largely through their liberality his home purchased and has been kept as a spot to which all who cherish a regard for the greatness of his services, may come and offer their respect to a name so illus¬ trious. But during the years that have passed, the hand of Time has been doing its w$*k and the enclosures about the grounds have become greatly di¬ lapidated.

By the time I was nineteen years old I was so weak I could not walk across the floor. I was ter¬ ribly emaciated and my skin had lost all color. The doctor pro¬ nounced the disease anaemia. Being advised to try Dr.Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People, I bought a box, and before I had taken all of the pills found that they were doing me good. Appe¬ tite increased and the healthy color began to show in my cheeks and lips. I continued to use the pills until I found myself perma¬ nently cured. Since then I have had no return of my old trouble. I know that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People saved my life and I believe that no other med¬ icine could have done it .”—From Ottawa Times , Holland, Mich.
