A Thanksgiving Kith*.
Probably no young man in Barnes
ville does more tor the pleasure of the
young ladies than Mr. John T. Mid
dlebrooks, as he is constantly plan
ning for their enjoyment. Thanks
giving Day he took a party five miles
into the country in search of sugar
cane. When the party arrived they
were told that there was no sugar
cane anywhere around, but Mr. Mid
dlebrooks got the cane somehow and
the party was happy. The drive was
a very pleasant one. The party con

Miss Josie Lovelace, Miss Jean Mitch

Veal, Miss Mamie Mitchell, Miss
Annie McCullough, Miss Emma Scott,
Miss M. Kathryn Lockhart, Miss
Roberta Mitchell, Miss May Notting

Jackson.
The Iteeves Boys.
It is a source of gratification that
the person who does business on a
business basis and deals fairly and
honestly with the people may reap
abundant success, whether he has
ample capital or not. A few years
ago the Reeves Boys began business
with a small sum of money. They
undertook to do only a small business
at first bpt as time passed they were
successful and constantly their busi
ness grew. They are now doing a
large business, have a large stock of
goods and their credit is excellent in
the business world. It is the reward
of energy and good business methods
and they are entitled to all the suc
cess they have obtained. They keep
their business constantly before the
public through The Gazette and we
commend them to the public as wor
thy of confidence and patronage.

Sunday’s Services.
There were no preaching service in
Barnesville Sunday except at the
Baptist church, the other pastors be
ing absent. Dr. Brittain had large
congregations at both services and
preached two sermons that were very
much enjoyed. The Gordon Insti
tute Cadets, under Lieut. J. (Quincy
Nash, and the physical culture class
in uniform under Miss M. Kathryn
Lockhart, attended the morning serv
ice in bodies and Dr. Brittain
preached a special sermon to them,
on the subject of “Sinless ambition.”
The day was a very pleasant one.
He Was Superannuated.
The North Georgia Conference
which has been in session in Augusta
this week placed Rev. H. J. Adams,
once pastor here, on the superannuat
ed list and it is said there was con
siderable feeling among the members
of the conference when the action
was taken. Brother Adams has long
been a useful and a beloved member
and all were sad over his failing health.
Brothtr Adams was greatly loved by
the people of Barnesville and they
too regret very much to know that he
is in such a low state of health. He
goes to St. Louis this week to live.
TMejr Wish Him Success.
Col. Wallace W. Lambdin of At
lanta, is an applicant for appointment
before Gov. Candler for judge of the
second division of the city court of
Atlanta. His numerous friends here
hope for his appointment, as they con
sider Col. Lambdin eminently quali
fied and well worthy of the honor.
Since locating in Atlanta, he has been
quite successful as a lawyer and as a
citizen he stands high with the peo
ple of Atlanta. The people of Bar
nesville will rejoice at his appoint
ment.
To Move to Alabama.
Rev. W. P. Clayton, who has been
living near Barnesville, has sold out
his plantation and farm tools and sup
plies, and will move with his family
to North Alabama, where they will in
futuie reside. Mr. Clayton is a good
man and citizen and we regret that
he is to leave Pike county. We hope
he will do well in his new home.
Hot Quite Well Yet.
Conductor W. 7'. Hammond, who
was hurt sometime since on the Up
son county railroad, was sufficiently
recovered to be at his post again a
few days ago. He was not strong
however, and it may be some days
yet, before he begins his regular run.
Many Fruit Trees.
Many fruit trees have been shipped
to Barnesville recently for the pur
pose of being put out by various cit
izens. Thousands of trees are being
set out and the fruit industry is rap
idly assuming immense importance.
Fair money was made out of the crop
this year, and it was an encourage
ment for the industry.
Mr. Otis Murpliey Sick.
Mr. Otis A. Murphey has been
sick for some (lays past. Last week
he was sick on account of the mumps
and this week he has had the grippe.
He will probably be out this week
again.
Mr. Hiiguley Sick.
Mr. George E. Huguley is still
confined to his home on account of
sickness, although his condition is not
serious. He has been sick for some
wee\s past, but has been at the bank
part ot the time. His numerous
friends hope that he may be out soon
and permanently restored to health.
He is a useful and an influential citi
zen of Barnesville.
At Mount Pleasant.
Dr. 7’. J. Watts went to Mount
Pleasant church in Monroe county
Sunday where he conducted the
services at 11 o’clock a. m. Dr.
Watts enjoyed the day and he pleased
the people. He is a splendid talker
and handles his subjects well.

Mr. Cochrune Sells
Mr. James M. Cochrane has sold
his home on 77iomaston street to
Mrs. E. J. Minhinnett of Roswell, Ga.
Recently Mrs. Minhinnett bought a
lot from Mr. Edward Elder and ex
pected to build upon it. She has,
however, purchased the Cochrane
place and therefore will not build.
7’he place site has purchased was
built sometime ago by Mr. Cochrane
and is a very valuable home, quite
conveniently arranged. It is equip
ped with electric lights, water works
and everything is new throughout.
Mrs. Minhinnett has secured a beau
tiful home excellently located.
Smith—Hawkins.
Barnesville had another runaway
marriage Sunday. At- four o’clock in
the afternoon at Milner’s school house
Miss Minnie Smith and Mr. Will
Hawkins were united in marriage,
Rev. W. P. Clayton performing the
ceremony. Miss Smith lived in Bar
nesville and Mr. Hawkins lived near
the city. 7’heir friends wish them a
happy life.
Wliounnts*, dyspepsia, loss of appetite,
disturbed sleep, nervousness, headache,
giddiness and drowsiness, wind and pain
or fullness of the stomach after meals, cold
chills and flushings of heat, shortness of
breath —these are the blank cheques of
physical bankruptcy. Take them to a
physician and he will fill them up with the
name of some more or less serious disease.
Every time that you carry one of them to
him you draw out some of your funds in
the Hank of Health. Keep it up, and there
will soon be no funds in the treasury.
The man who suffers from these dis
orders and neglects them will soon be in
the relentless grasp of some fatal disease.
If he is naturally narrow chested and shal
low lunged, it will probably be consump
tion; if his father or mother died of par
alysis or some nervous trouble, it will
probably be nervous exhaustion or prostra
tion, or even insanity ; if there it a taint in
the family blood, it will be blood or skin
disease; if he lives in anew or a low,
swampy country, it will be malaria; if he
lives a life of exposure, it may be rheu
matism. There is just one safe course for
a man to follow who finds himself out of
sorts and suffering from the symptoms
described. It is to resort to Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery. This medicine
makes the appetite keen, cqyects all dis
orders of the digestion, assimila
tion perfect, invigorates the liver, purifies
and enriches the blood and builds firm,
healthy flesh and nerve tissue. It cures
almost all diseases that result from insuf
ficient fc or improper nourishment of the
brain and nerves Bronchial, throat, and
even lung affection#, when not too far ad
vanced, readily yield to it.
" I took Dr Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery
for Eczema," writes J. W. Barnhart, of No 4415
De Witt SKreet, Buffalo, N. Y., “and it com
pletely cured me."
