Entered at the Ellaville, Ga., Post Office as second class mail matter. Mrs. M. L. Myrick. the brilliant little woman who so ably edits the Times-Recorder, has our thanks for courtesies in connection with the Christinal Carnival to be held in Amcricus next week. It promises to be the biggest and best show of its kind ever held in (ieorgia. The speech of Senator Clay on the ship subsidy bill in the Senate last week has attracted much favorable comment for our junior Senator. A gentleman who heard the speech and heard the criticisms of it in Washington pronounces it by odds the best thing of the pres ent session. It was full of the meat of care preparation and running over with good democratic doc trine—the interests of the common people—and proved quite a thorn in the flesh for Hanna and bis re publican majority, commanding the attention of both senate and galleries throughout, and showing up more clearly and forcibly than anything before the great wrongs concealed in the bill. The Senator is a hard worker and a careful looker-after the interests of his people. Georgia is to be congratu lated on having his services in these days of corporate control and legislation. AS WE SEE IT: The Macon Telegraph suggests iti a recent issue that the democrats of the South reorganize themselves into a new party and act independ ently in future, and go in the elec torial college free to trade with whichever side offers us best terms. The objections are apparent. 1. To send our delegates pla carded for sale to the highest bid der would never do. 2. If we should send delegates that way the contingency under which we could trade would not arise probably more than once in twenty years. 3. Withdrawing from Northern democracy would leave us no mi nority party to kill oft' bad legisla tion against the country, or force bills and vicious legislation against ourselves. 4. It would cause us to desert the Northern democracy which has been true to us in congress. The South cannot find fault with votes of democrats in congress from the North. They have been with the South. Such conduct would ruin the democratic party in the North, which has had to fight for life and existence since the war. Sale on the 26th Day of Dec. 1900.

MURRAY MUSINGS. I haven’t had anything to say in the paper for some time now, and there has been no big fuss kicked up about it by any one that I know of. Will say by request of a friend that is to leave our settlement in a few days to make worth county her home in the future and by ask ing your permission also for a little space, I will say our community is very badly stirred up over losing some of its best citizens, G. A. Hill and wife, W. II. Payne and w ife, R. H. Bridges and family are all to leave for Worth county in a few days. While they are all our kinsmen and good friends and neighbors also. We regret very much to give them up, but what is our loss in that way is somebody else’s gain. Will suy we all feel like their places will be hard to fill. Also several other good fami lies have left from around here, all good people. We hope good neigh bors will fill all their place. Sever al friends and neighbors spent the day at the hospitable home of W. H. Payne on last Sunday as they said for the last time that they would meet at their home. Among them was Mrs. J. T. Holt, and Mrs. Ella Patton, of Schley, as they passed by I put on my best bsst necktie and humbled myse down in the foot of their buggy and went too, and who could blame me. V\ ill say J m . conclusion , . there is a large force of hands mov ing the store house formerly owned by Mr. J. T. Collins down to the X soads to be occupied by James Kelly. Will have it in place and ready for business in a tew days. All will be glad to welcome Mr. Kelley and family at the X roads. J. B. Brewer, of Stewart’s Mill, has moved into the house vacated by P. A. Murray and will carry the U. S. mail for us. The health of our community was never better, no sickness at all for which we all feel thankful. L. A. G. How to Cure Croup. Mr. R. Gray, who lives near Amenia, Duchess county, N. Y., says “Chamberlain’s Cough Reme dyis the best medicine I have ever used. Its a fine children’s remedy tor croup and never fails to cure. > 9 When given as soon as the child be comes hoarse or'even attcithe croup cough has developed, it will prevent the attack. This should be borne in inind uml a bottle of the Cough Remedy kept at hand ready for in stant use as soon as the symptoms appear. For sale by Bridges Bros. Among the tens of thousands who have used Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy the for past colds two and la grippe dur ing years, to our knowledge, not a single case has suited in pneumonia. T. Whitfield X Co., Wabash avenue, Chicago, one of the most prominent retail druggists in that city', in speaking of this, says: “We recommend Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy for la grippe in many cases, as it not only gives prompt and complete re covery, but also counteracts any tendency of la grippe to result in pneumonia.

The average man can call his wife “Say !’’ all week if he will only call her “dear” once before her minister on Sunday. A woman uses up the best part of her life trying 1o get into society and the rest of it trying to keep other people out. What an exquisitely beautiful thing maternity is! Did you, ever see a woman pretend to bite a piece out of a baby’s foot? A woman never believes more than half of what a man says, but it make a lot of difference whether its the first half or the last half. Two hours after a funeral there isn’t a woman in town who can’t tell you what each of the floral emblems cost, if it cost a cent. Whenever a girl bets about any thing with a man she always tries to act like she was afraid he was going to propose to bet a kiss or something. Heaven’s latch string is always hanging out, but some people’s souls will be so small they will have to take along a stick with a bent pin in it to pull it. . Probably the angels have always wondered why the first thing every woman asks after she gets there is where is the nearest spot that she can sec the other place-*from. If you would have an appetite like a bear and a relish for your mels take Chamberlain’s Stomach and Liver Tablets. They correct disorders of the stomach and regulate the liver and bowels. Price 25c. Samples free, at Bridges Bros, drug store. No one can reasonably hope for good health unless his bowels move once each day. When this is not at tended to, disorders of the stomach arise, biliousness, headache, dyspep sia and piles soon follow. If you wish to avoid these ailments keep your bowels regular by taking Chamberlain’s Stomach and Liver Tablets when requireb.
