We are sure that the conserv ative, democratic voters of Pike county "ill today vote almost solidly for Mr. E - M. Owen for representative in the next legisla ture. JI.• is a young man of a high order of ability, fully quali- fied for sustaining himself in the law-making body of the state. Mr. Owen has the unqualified en dorsement and support of the people of his own community, among the most upright, in tel i geut, interprisrng of Georgia. It is absolutely neccesary to have a representative in the legislature who is conservative, and who will view questions without prejudice and with good will toward all his constituents. Such a man is Mr. Owen and we do not see how a a conservative democratic citizen can vote otherwise than for him in the present campaign. It is an oppotunity which the people of the county have to put forward in line for future promotion one of their fellow citizens, who can in turn honor them and his native county. It is very important that your ballot be cast for E. M. Owen for representative. CONSIDER WELL BEFORE VOTING. “Vote only for good men; vote for men whose lives you can en dorse.” —Adnirsville Banner. The right and privilege of the ballot is not fully appreciated by many citizens. Too often we are controlled by personal considera tions when we go to select men for offices, and we do not stop to think of what a serious duty we have to perform when we go to vote. Of course wo should cast our ballots for men who agree with our views on public issues, but this is not enough. A ballot cast for a candidate is not only an endorsement of his position on given questions but it is also an -endorsement of his standing among his own constituents and also of his private life. At least this is true, where tin* people properly weigh matters of this kind. Such an endorsement says that the man elected is a good citizen, is active in the upbuild ing of his sect ion, is in harmony with the people among whom he lives. Such an endorsement of a man sent to our state and national law-making bodies makes him our representative. It means that we believe that ho would act for our selves —in other words that lie is like us in his views, on public questions, in his conduct as a citizen and in his deportment in private life. It is a serious mat ter to cast a ballot and thus en dorse men and measures, Imt the above is t he conception we should have and by which we should he governed, in deciding for whom to ‘vote in all contests for municipal, county, state and national offices. It is a cause of congratulation that there are so many good men for whom to vote in the present race for state and county offices, but there are some who are not deserving \of the endorsement which a bam>t cast in their favor would carry Vith it. Think on things and then vote! \ i.: M m £'%■%£>*' : ' PROF. J. E. WOODLAND, Institute of Mechanic Arts, Rochester, N. Y. Who Lectures at the Barnesville Chautauqua, July 2nd. and 4th.

He knows that this paper aims to advertise only the best in its columns, and when he saw Chamberlain’s Pain Balm advertised therein for lame back, he did not hesitate buying a bottle of it for his wife, who for eight weeks had suffered with the most terrible pains in her back and could get no relief. He says: “After using the Pain Balm for a few day3 my w ife said to me, *1 feel as though born anew,’ and before using the entire contents of the bottle the unbearable pains had entirely vanished and she could again take up her household duties.” He is very thankful aud hopes that all suffering likewise will hear of her wonderful recovery Thiß valuable liniment is for sale bv Jno.

It was greeted with a great deal of enthusiasm here. Asa Sunday paper the Journal excells anything of its nature ever seen in Barnesville, containing 56 pages, divided into four sections and a colored supplement. On account of some mistake of the railroad officials only one section of it was received Sunday morning, the others coining Mon day, which .caused considerable disappointment. The Sunday Journal, as the daily, will no doubt take the lead in Barnesville. Mr. Harvey Green, of Dallas Ga., who came to take charge of Mr. G. W. Grjge’s Photograph Gallery, made a -business trip to Forsyth Monday. GLUTTONY Is more common than we may think, if we define gluttony as eating beyond the body’s need of sustenance and t>eyond the stomach’s capacity for digestion and assimilation of food. That is a fair definition, and it fastens the name glut ton on many a person who would resent the term as an insult. The fact of this gluttony is marked by its consequences. The overloaded stomach becomes dis eased. The popular term for the condi tion is "weak” stomach. The "weak” stomaeh fails in furnishing adequate nu trition for the lxxiy, and soon the " weak ness ” spreads from the stomach to other organs. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and enables the perfect assimilation of food, bv which alone the health and strength ol the body is maintained. "Your medicine helped me so much that I cannot praise tt too highly." writes Mrs. C I. Brooks, of Poland. Androscoggin Cos.. Me. "The first dose l took helped me I cannot forget how 1 felt when 1 took it; 1 was suffering every thing with indigestion, and my stomach was so bloated that it seemed as though it must burst. Mv husband said he was goiug for the doctor, but I aid if he would get me a bottle of the ‘Golden Medical Diaccvery‘ I would try that. I had not taken it long when I felt relieved, and have not had a touch of indigestion or stomach trouble since I had been atek for four year*, and leaa than four bottles cured me Some people that knew me before I began to.take the 'Golden Medical Discovery' tell me that they never saw auch a change in any one. and they ad so sav they don't see how l can do such large washings as 1 do now. when X had not dona* waahiug for so long " Dr. Pierce’s Pellets cure biliousness.
