FALL ANNOUNCFMENT,
That the cotton has been greatly damaged
by recent and continued rains throughout the
state, no one can deny the present low prices.
It’s going to be hard to make ends meet.
In view of these facts, I have used extra
diligence in my purchases this season. Asa
result, I am prepared to show the largest and
best selected stock in Middle Ga., and AT
PRICES NO COMPETITOR WILL DARE
TOUCH. I did not visit the Eastern markets
this season, but remained at home and with
ampleand ready cash, accepted every bargain
offered.
Dress Goods.
I am the acknowledged leader in Dress Goods, as is
evidenced by the fact that I sell more than the balance of the
town. Every lady knows this, and they all go to Rogers’ for
their tine dresses.
Clothing.
1 still sell Strouse Bros. Clothing, acknowledged to be
the most up-to-date and best fitting clothing offered to the
trade. My prices this fall are right and you can buy them
without feeling the effect of the tariff.
Boots SHoos and Hats.
My stock in these lines, as in every other, is complete.
Get my prices before buying.
DOMESTICS
I never made a dollar on domestics in my life. You can
buy them the year round at factory prices.
It’s useless to attempt to enumerate everything I carry in
stock, as every man, woman and child in Middle Ga- knows
Ed Rogers, and knows that he carries everything and will not
be undersold by no living man. Come to see and I promise
to make your 4c cotton go further and buy more goods than
ever before. In fact, 1 will make it pan out 6c.

BARNESVILLE, GA., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1898.
GREER-ROSE-
Tuesday afternoon at 5 o'clock at
the home of the bride’s father, Mr.
E. W. Rose, on Thomaston street,
Miss Josephine Rose was united in
marriage to Mr. Leon C. Greer of
Oglethorpe, Ga. Rev. W. S. Ste
vens, officiating, using the ring cer
emony.
The home was tastily decorated
and quite a number of friends were
present as witnesses. Immediately
after the ceremony, Mr. and Mrs.
Greer left for Florida, where they
will spend a few weeks on their bridal
tour.
Many congratulations were ex
tended them over their marriage.
Miss Rose was one of Barnesville’s
sweetest young ladies. She has many
admirers here, among both young and
old. Mr. Greer is quite a promising
young man. He is editor of the Ma
con County Citizen and is a young
lawyer with a growing practice. He
graduated from Gordon Institute a
few years ago and has a great many
warm friends here.
The whole community extends its
sincerest and warmest congratula
tions to Mr. and Mrs. Greer, and
The Gazette joins in wishing for
them a bright, happy and prosperous
life.
A Debut Reception.
Beautifully printed invitations,
bearing the following, have been re
ceived by friends in the city :
Mr. and Mrs. A. O. Murphey
request the pleasure of your company
at the debut reception of
their daughter,
Meta,
on Friday evening, October seventh,
from eight to twelve.
Thomaston Street,
Barnesville, Georgia.
No doubt this occasion will be one
of great pleasure.
Work on the Conrt House.
Some two or three months ago
lightning struck the tower of the court
house at Zebulon and so damaged it
as to make repairs necessary. The
county commissioners then decided to
remove the tower from the center
of the building and place it at the
frynt. The contract was awarded to
Mr. McAfee, of Atlanta, who began
work last week tearing it away and
left it exposed to the storm this week.
Monday it was so wet that court had
to adjourn until Thursday. This
work will cost something over $2,000.
When a young man asks a father for hi#
daughter’s hand in marriage, if the father !
is a wise one, he thinks of one thing equal
ly as important as the young man’s moral#,,
social and business standing and intelli
gence. A young man who suffers from ill
health has no right to marry until his health
is restored. To do so is to commit a crime
against the human race. While all diseases
may not be directly inherited, the constitu
tional tendency to acquire them is inher
ited. If a man is a consumptive, the
chances are that his children will have
weak, undersized lungs, and a predisposi
tion to acquire the same disease.
The young man who suffers from bron
chitis, weak lungs, spitting of blood or any
disease of the air-passages which, if neg
lected leads up to consumption, may take
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery with
almost absolute assurance of recovery. It
cures 98 per cent, of all cases when taken
in time. It soothes and heals the delicate
and sensitive tissues of the air-passages and
lungs, checks the cough, facilitates expect
oration, drives out all impurities and dis
ease germs from the tainted blood and
builds new and healthy tissues.
Mr John G. Born of 4020 I.iberty Ave. Pitts
burgh, Pa., writes : ‘ Some thirty months ago I
said to my wife, I don t want to keep anything
from you. I must tell you I am iu the last stage
of consumption.’ In December I commenced
taking Dr Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
I could then only speak in whispers I have
taken thirteen bottles, and can say with truth I
am greatly benefited. People are surprised to
hear me speak. 1 can halloo, and my voice baa
not tieen as good in eight years. My stomach
was never in better condition. Formerly I could
not cat without suffering very much immediately
alter, but now I can eat anything."
n Series ol Addresses-
Beginning on next Sunday, Octo
ber 9th, there will be given at the
Methodist church a series of ad
dresses, as follows :
Sunday, October 9th, 11 a. m.—
“The Church of the Living God;”
7:30 p. m.—The Holy Scriptures.”
Monday, 4p. m.—“ Justification;”
7:30 p. m.—“ Attending Upon Ordi
nances.’’
Tuesday, 4 p. m —“Regeneration;”
7:30 p. m.—“ Discipline in the

sation of the Holy Spiiit;” 7:30 p. m.

These services will take the place of
what is usually known as protracted
meeting. It will be seen that every
subject here given is of vital interest
to church members, and some of them
even to people not belonging to the
church. It is hoped, therefore, that
all the people will avail themselves of
the opportunity to know more of these
things. The young men are especial
ly invited to be present at theevening
services, and the pupils of the Insti
tute at the afternoon exercises.
Cut out the list of subjects and
keep it for reference. Show it to
your friends and ask them to come
with you.
To Marry In Texas.
The marriage of Miss May Lamb
din to Mr. J. I). Williamson, recently
announced, will occur to-day in Wa
co, Tex., instead of in Barnesville, as
first arranged for. Mr. Williamson was
recently accidently shot, and it was
deemed best for him not to take the
trip and he telegraphed for the bride
elect to come to Texas and have the
ceremony performed there. Accord
ingly, Mrs. A. M. Lambdin, and Miss
May, left Sunday morning for Waco.
They were scheduled to arrive there
yesterday and the marriage will occur
to-day. The people here regret ex
ceedingly the circumstances which
force the change in the original
plans.
Friends will await with interest
the news from Waco.

conducted by Dr. J. M. Brittain.

tions.
