We would recommend to those of our
married lady readers who have difficulty
in inducing their husbands to remain
home at night, the plan adopted by a
Chicago lady. This young wife tells her
husband about the exquisitely dainty
proportions of his feet, and induces him
to wear boots about two sizes too small
for him. He is on his feet all day long
in town, and when he comes home at
night she has a pair of loose, cool slip
pers for him and by the time he. with
great drops of agony pearling on his
brow, has got off hislioots, he comes to
the conclusion that “there is no place
like home” after all. and has no desire to
go down town to the lodge or sit up with
a sick friend.
Georgia will have two thanksgiving
days this year; is this owing to Georgia's
excessive piety or were both the peanut
and melon crop unusually fine this
year?—Houston County (Texas) Post.
Well, Georgia does not lay claim to ex
cessive piety but her people are good aud
cannot be too thankful that their lines
are in suen pleasant places. Not only
the peanut and melon crop but all other
crops are unusually fine this year.—En

Mr. J. J. Hunley, who lives on Mr.
J. B. TUalker's place, raised the past sea
son the largest squash we have ever heard
of: it weighed 87 pounds and was as large
in circumference as a small syrup barrel
The seed were sent from the agricultural
department at Washington by the Hon.
Tims. W. Grimes.—Columbus Ledger.
Port Royal N. C. and Algiers, La.

A GOOD COUGH SYRUP.
There is nothing parents should be so cureful
about as selecting a cough syrup. Boggs’
Cherry Cough Syrup costs no more than the
clump and inferior nostrums thrown on the
market . The best is none too goad, be sure and
get REGGS’ CHERRY COUGH SYRUP. We
keep it on hand at ull times.

Gents— After suffering for twenty years with mv Kidneys, and finding only temporary

Columbus, Ga., fi CT 0 . 0.
To the People of Schley and adjoining Counties.
I keep constantly on hand a well assorted stock of
groceries, plantation and family supplies, of every de
scription.
I have near the depots, a large brick warehouse, with
side-track facilities, where my heavy goods are stored,
and the economy and convenience of receiving and for
warding, enables me to give as low, if not lower prices
than any one.
I will always have in season a good stock of Iron ties,
twine, Cotton and jute bagging, enough to supply the
wants of all.
An experience of twenty two years in the grocery trade
helps me to anticipate the wants of the trading public,
especially the farmers.
Special attention paid to filling orders by mail.
Your patronage soliticed.
