Crockery.
I have more crockery
than the law allows.
This is English ware,
and will not crack or
craze. I’m offering it
for less than the Ameri

great variety of odds and
ends in crockery and glass
ware to close out at great
ly reduced prices.
In conclusion let me
state that I’ll meet any
cut prices on groceries or
anything else carried in
my line.

In Memoriam.
On Nov. sth, 1902, the sweet
and gentle spirit of Mrs. Cathe
rine FI. Ferguson, wife of James
M. F'erguson, was called from
this earthly home to a home
above, where all is love. She was
born the 20th of May, 1829. She
was converted when quite young
’and joined the Missionary baptist,
church nearly 60 years ago. She
always loved to go to church, and
her house was the preacher’s home.
She has been a great sufferer for
two years, yet she bore it with
Christian fortitude. Of her it
may he said : she was a great wo
man, a devoted wife and mother,
a true friend and good neighbor.
We feel like our loss is her gain.
While we miss her so much we be
lieve she is in that home above,
j where she is free from pain and
trouble, basking in the love of
1 God and sweetly waiting the res
urection morn, when we shall all
be united.
Farewell dear friend fora while,
we feel that we are better by your
being with us. Much might be
said about this good woman, her
many deeds of gentleness and
kindness will live long years to
come. For her it was a pleasure
to labor for the comfort and pleas
ure of others.
It can truly be said that she
was a good woman. May we fol
low the example she set before us,
and we will some day see her
again when the shadows are lifted
and the mist is cleared away. If
faithful, we too shall behold a
glorious eternity. We extend our
heart felt sympathy to the bereav
ed ones. A Friend.
“More haste, less speed,” and
“hasten slowly,” are proverbs
born of experience that some
t ilings can’t be hurried without
loss and waste. That is special} 7
t rue of eating. The railway lunch
habit, “five minutes for refresh
ments,” is a habit most disastrous
to the health. You may hurry your
eating. You can’t hurry your di
gestion, mid the neglect to allow
proper time for this important
function is the beginning of sor
rows to many a busy man. When
the tongue is foul, the head aches,
when there are sour or bitter
risings, undue fullness after eat
ing, hot flushes, nervousness, ir
ritability, cold extremities, and
other annoying symptoms, lie sure
the stomach and organs of diges
tion and nutrition have “broken
down.” Nothing will re-establish
them in active healthy operation
so quickly as Dr. Pierce’s Golden
Medical Discovery. It strength
ens the stomach, nourishes the
the nerves, purifies the blood, and
builds up the body. It is a strict
ly temperance medicine containing
no alcohol or other intoxicant.

her mother a native of Rome. She
was brought up by an “American”

Freeze Out The Coal Barons.
Soon as the weather gets raw
the coal man begins to put ou airs.
Only a few years ago coal as a
fuel was unknown in this part of
the country and people sulfered
less from cold weather than they
do now. The blue blaze of the big
Soak and hickory logs licked up at
the back of the big open chimney
and there was comfort around such
a family fireside. Coal is a modern
innovation and the tendency of
our people is to buy everything
with nothing to sell. Of course it
requires labor to cut and house
wood, and it takes hard labor to
mine coal, but what is the use to
send every dollar we make out of
the country for something we can
produce or utilize at home. Lazi
ness among whites and negroes is
the principal reason why coal is
used in place of wood. Many
farmers could add considerable to
their income every winter by sell
ing the wood which is rotting and
going to waste on their farms. In
the spring logs that are in the way
of the plow in the fields, are piled
in great heaps and burned. Why
burn up money in such a foolish
way? Buy a saw and a gasoline
engine which can be operated on
a wagon in the woods and cut the
wood ready for market.
Up North and in the West where
wood is scarce necessity forces
people to buy coal as there is no
wood, but down here in Georgia,
we can live comfortably without a
single lump of coal for the next
one hundred years.
People ought not to buy a lump
of coal this winter if they can help
it. Use wood if you can get it and
leave the money at home. —Ameri-

A Hero.
Here is a story of the Civil War
brought out by the erection at
Nashville, Tenn., of a monument
to the memory of a young Con
federate soldier, who was lmnged
as a spy by the Union forces. The
soldier’s name was Samuel Davis.
He was a scout in the service of
Gen. Braxton Bragg, and by some
clever work of disguise, coupled
with nerve, managed to get from a
Federal soldier information as
to the strength of the Union forces
posted around Pulaki, Tenn., at
which point Gen. Grantville M.
Dodge was in command. Davis
had the ill luck to be captured,
and on his person were found
papers that revealed the informa
tion he had gleaned, and which he
intended to convey to the Confed
erate general. The young scout
was imprisoned, and all sorts of
persuasions and threats were em
ployed to get him to reveal the
name of his informant. He was
assured that no harm would come
to him if he disclosed it, but that
dentil, should he persist in refus
ing to tell, would surely be his
punishment. “You may hang me
ten thousand times,” said the
youth, “but you can never make
me disclose the identity of the man
who gave me the information.”
He was hanged as a spy, Gen.
Dodge signing the order. But his
heroism and faithfulness were not
forgotten, and when the project
to erect the monument was under
way Gen. Dodge sent his check
for .fltX) to aid in the movement.

ASLEEP AMID FLAMES.
Breaking into a blazing home, some
firemen lately dragged the sleeping in

and death near. It’s that way when
you neglect coughs and colds. Don’t

Consumption gives perfect protection
against all Throat Chest and Lung
Troubles. Keep it near, and avoid suf
j fering, death and doctor’s bills. A
teaspoonful stops a late cough, persis

Hales for Walking.
A physicial culturistand beauty
specialist, a man who combines the
two in his rather expensive course
of treatment, gives his patrons
these rules for walking:
They are, as you will see, super
ficial. They do not go to the root
of the trouble, but they are effect
ive and in a short time. A woman
will walk better without know
ledge why she does so. If she will
merely go by the directions she
will improve her carriage a hun
dredfold and often this change
will be so marked that her friends
will comment upon it before she
has practiced it a week.
For walking:
Hold the head up.
Lift the chin high.
Throw the shoulders back.
Inflate the chest.
Draw in the abdomen.
Take very long steps, probably
twice the length of your usual
ones.
Walk from the knees.
Turn the foot almost at right
angles with the leg.
Practice your walking experi
ments iu your own room at first.
Lift the skirt high enough, street
or room, to allow the use of the
foot and leg without tiring.
Breathe deeply. This last js
most important of all.
THE BEST REMEDY FOR CROUP.
[From the Atchlnson, Kan , Daily Globe.]
This is the season when the woman
who knows the best remedies for croup
is in demand in every neighborhood.
One of the most terrible things in the
world is to be awakened in the middle
of the night by a whoop from one of the
children. The croup remedy is almost
as sure to be lost, in case of croup, as
a revolver is sure to be lost in case of
burglars. There used to be an old fash
ioned remedy for croup, known as hive
syrup and tolu, but some modern
mothers say that Chamberlin’s Cough
Remedy is better, and does not cost so
much. It causes the patient to
“through up the phlegm” quicker, and
gives relif in a shorter time. Give this
remedy as soon as the croupy cough ap
pears. and it will prevent the attack.
It never fails and is pleasant and saf
to take. For sale by J. H. Blackburn.

warming a thank offering, however
large or small. Rev. W. E. Mum

Words Of Wisdom.
Half truth may be a whole lie.
Self-knowledge will cause self

Profanity is often a species of
insanity.
The greedy man always cheats
himself.
The tllame of lust quenches the

The avalanche always starts
with a pebble.
Paint on the pipe will not puri
fy the water.
Permanency of pleasure depends
on purity of purpose.
Grapes of peace do not grow on
thorns of passion.
Imitation fruits always cost
more than the real ones.

Heavy eating is usually the first cause
of indigestion. Repeated attacks iu
flame the mucous membranes lining
the stomach, exposes the nerves of the
stomach, producing a swelling after
eating, heartliburn, headache, sour ris
