Goverment reports the present cotton crop at 8,900,000 bales. The Georgia legislature is scheduled to close up shop Sat¬ urday. Great Britiau has lost 4, <86 brave soldiers by her war in South Africa. What has Uncle Sam lost in the Philippines? The Willingham bill was defeated last week in the senate by a yote of 20 to 14. This was about the claim a week before the vote was taken, It was useless to waste time in debating the matter. Friends of the bill claim that the tight has just started. Tho body of Mrs. Eugunia Pottle was found m the river near Macon last week, where it had been for two weeks. Two negros named Fuller and Redd have been put in jail charged with the crime. Fuller is believed to be guilty of murder¬ ing the old lady. The deceased was the wife of Judge E. II. Pottle, who presided over our Superior court. Tho nowspapers of a town are its looking glasses. It is bore you see yourselves as others see you. You smile on them and aud they smile back at you; you frown on them and you uro re¬ paid in kindness. They are the reflex of the town. If the town is doing business, the newspaper will show it id its. advertising Columns, If tho merchants are spiritless, shiftless follows, whoso stores are jumbles of junk and jam, the newspaper will show it by the lack of space they take. If you want the world to know that you have a live town, you can only let it be known through its newspaper.—Ex. m cam C3J8S Mae Them Did you ever try to dodge the raia-drops? Did not succeed very well, did you ? It’s just or- useless to try to escape from the germs of consumption. You can’t do it. They are about us on every hand and we are con¬ stantly taking them into our bung ?. t hen why don’t we nil have this disease ? Simply because these germs cannot gain a foot¬ hold in a strong throat and lungs. It’s when these arc weak that the germs master. Tf e body must be well supplied with fat. The danger comes \s hen the blood is poor and the body is thin. If your cough does not jicld, and your throat and lungs fee! raw and sore, you should not delay another day. Take Scott’s Emulsion of Cod-Liver Oil with Hypo phos¬ phites at once. It will heal the inflamed membranes and greatly strengthen them as well. The digestion becomes stronger, the appetite better and the weight Increases. The whole body be¬ comes weii fortified and the germs of consumption cannot gain a foothold. - It’s this nourishing, sustain¬ ing and strengthening power of SCOTT’S EMULSION that has made it of such value in all wasting and exhausting diseases. 50c. and fi.oa* #1! druggists. SCOTT & BOWNE. Qmkuu. New York. What is needed in Georgia is a lessening of expenditures rather than an increase in the proceeds of taxation. The expenditures on account of pensions and the schools ought to be greatly reduced; and there are many needless offices which ought to be abolished. Unfortunately, Federal extravagance has crept into State methods, and there is a reckless waste in almost every direction.—Sparta Ishmaelite. 4 i Quick lunch” is one of the commonest of city signs. The sign doesn’t say “ahealthylunch of good food—the character of the food apparently is not con¬ sidered, It’s just a quick lunch, —eat and get away. Is it any wonder that the stomach breaks down? Food is thrown at it, sloppy, indigestible and innutriti¬ ons food, very often, and the stomach has to do the best it can. Normally there should be no need for medical assistance for the stomach. But the average method of life is abnormal and while this continues there will always be a demand for Dr. Pierce’s Goldon Medical Discov¬ ery. It is the one medicine which can bo relied on to cure diseases of thO stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. It is not a cure-all. It is a medicine designed for the stomach, and to cure through the stomach remote diseases which have their cause in the derangement of the stomach and digestive and nutritive system. It cures when all else fails. The famous Mr. Harvey has written another book called ‘‘coin on Money, Trusts and Iuperialism.” The first pages indicate it to be worth a great deal to those who want to know facts about.this important nation¬ al question. An editor prints his paper to give his patrons the news of the day and for the money there is in it. He is presumed to know of what he writes, and he generally does. When he writes as ho does in the Leader Courier, Osceola Mills, Pa. without fee or hope of reward, that '‘Chamberlin’s Cough Remedy acts magically, and we have found none better iu our household. Jf .you have a cough try it,” it, may be accept¬ ed as au honest expression wor¬ thy of credence. For sale by Owl Drug Store. Tho Georgia house of repre¬ sentatives endorse Senator Clay’s bill before Congress to elect the U. S. Senators by a diroct vote of the people. This is a good law. No man should serve a people who is not chosen by the people. My son 1ms been troubled for years with chronic diarrhoea. Sometime ago I persuaded him to take some of Chamberlin’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. After using two bot¬ tles of the 25 cents size he was cured. I give this testimonial, hoping some one similarly afflict¬ ed may read it and be benofitted. —Thomas C. Bower. Glencoe, O.

A Child Burned. A 3 year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Byron Winn, of White Plains, was probably burned Saturday last. While her mother was absent from the room the little oue, in attempting to lift a chair, her balance and fell backward iuto the fire. Her dress became ignited at once. Thoroughly frightened, the child rushed screaming from the room, her whole form enveloped in flames. In her terror she ran first to the front porch, then turned and ran back through the hallway to the back porch, where she was met by her mother, who had beeu at¬ tracted by the screams. With the assistance of a gentleman who was passing, the flames were extinguished. Iu her efforts to put out the fire Mrs. Winn’s hands were badly burned. O BABNETTHEW by a.

Augusta had a $1,000,000 fire last Sunday morning, burning all the Western portion of the block contaning J. B. White’s and the Arlington Hotel. The fire start¬ ed about 2:40, a. m., in the wholesale department White's store. It spread rapidly and the local firemen did all they could to keep the flames under control but building after building went down under the flames, until it crossed Jackson street and burned Schneider's corner and damaged other stores on that side of Jackson street. It has not been a great while since the eastern half of the Arlington block was burned. A fortune teller, Mrs. Ward, predicted then that the portion burned Sunday would be burned before Christmas. Her goods were burned. Several horses in an Ellis street stable were burned. No lives lost. Macon sent fire engines but the Augusta force got the fire under control before theaid reached them. People are about as near ready for Christmas as they ever were; they are through with farm work and have about spent all their cash.
