Dr. Huguley Appointed.
Dr. G. Pope Huguley received the
appointment Friday last as surgeon
of the Central of Georgia Railway
Company for Barnesville, and the ap
pointment has caused general rejoic
ing among all the friends of Dr. Hu
guley and his family. It is said that
his application for the appointment
was accompanied by the highest and
strongest possible endorsements, from
private citizens and from some of the
most eminent physicians of the state
and south.
Dr. Huguley is a young man of fine
character, he possesses superior abil
ity,. he enjoys special qualifications
for his profession and he has made
excellent use of the best opportuni
ties that are afforded by the best
medical colleges of the south. When
he graduated, he located in Barnes
ville and began to practise. His
record is one of success and we pre
diet that he is to be recognized as
one of the most successful and most
skillful physicians of Georgia. Dr
Huguley has been warmly congratu
lated in having this honor conferred
upon him and it is certain that the
appointment will prove to be emi
nently satisfactory to the railroad
authorities.
Maid of Honor.
Miss Carrie Cook, one of Barnes
ville’s most popular young ladies, was
recently appointed maid of honor to
the Georgia Sponser, to represent the
Sixth Congressional district at the
Confederate Veterans Reunion at
Charleston, S. C., which is being held
this week. She will not be present
at the reunion, but the honor is one
which all Barnesville appreciates.
Miss Cook would have worthily rep
resented the Sixth district had she
heen able to have attended.
I)r. Nelken Here.
Dr. Nelken, whose card appears in
this issue, is here to confer with all
who may need his services as a spec
ialist in the treatment of all diseases
of the eye. He has headquarters at

Chautauqua Association have closed

A BIG CONSOLIDATION.
>
The Hanson-Crawley Company and
the Stafi'ord-Huguley Company have
made a consolidation of the two
plants, which means a great deal for
the two factories and for Barnesville.
The business will continue under the
name of the Hanson-Crawley Cos., but
the plant has been greatly strengthen
ed. The new firm has an actual paid
up capital of $20,000, and a capacity
of 500 dozen underwear and hosiery
pei day. Anew boiler and engine
and new machinery to the amount of
SSOOO will be put in immediately,
and the equipment will be one of the
most complete in the state. All the
parties interested are much elated
over the deal which has been made,
as the consolidation makes the plant
a strong one in every way. A meet
ing will soon be held and officers
elected. The company will practi
cally continue under the present man
agement, however. The new com
pany is composed of the following
well-known citizens: Dr. J. L. Fogg,
Messrs. J. L. Kennedy, J. W. Han
son, G. E. Huguley, C. L. Crawley,
and J. W. Stafford & Sons.
Miss Annie Smith Marries.
Monday afternoon, May Bth at 5
o'clock, at the home of Mr. T. H.
McDowell at Belleview, Talbot
county, Ga., Miss Annie Smith of
Barnesville, was married to Mr. Will
K. Couch of Talbotton, Ga. The
marriage was a great surprise to the
family and friends of the young lady.
She is the daughter of Mr. and Mis.
VV. H. Smith of Barnesville, and they
were surprised as much as their friends.
Miss Smith had been in Talbot coun
ty for some time teaching school, and
sometime since met the young man
who asked for her hand. She is an
attractive and an accomplished young
lady with many friends here and else
where. Mr. Couch is said to he an
energetic, industrious farmer who is
well esteemed by the people who
know him. All who are in any way
concerned hope that the union may
prove to be a happy one.
Delightfully Entertained.
Hunt’s Orchestra was delightfully
entertained last Thursday night at
the home of Mrs. E. C. Elder, on
Thomaston street. After several
pieces of good music by the orchestra
delicious refreshments were served,
and those present together with the
orchestra enjoj ed themselves im
mensely. Mrs. Elder is a charming
hostess and has a lovely home. Man
ager Hunt states that “Hunts Or
chestra” is open for future engage
ments.
pr;iy<T without
was a husband
worthy of the name, who did not aspire
to be the father and the grandfather of
healthy, capable children to hand down
his name and the fortune accumulated by
the sweat of his brow, from generation to
generation. There never was a wife fit to
bear that noble title, who did not wish to
wear womanhood’s most glorious crown,
the sceptre of motherhood. Thousands
of wedded couples, otherwise happy, fall
short of wedlock’s greatest happiness be
cause they are childless. In the majority
of cases, this is because the wife, through
ignorance or neglect, suffers from weak
ness and disease of the organs distinctly
feminine. For women who suffer in this
way there is one great medicine that does
Hot fail to accomplish its purpose. It is
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It acts
directly on the delicate organs concerned
and makes them strong, healthy, vigorous,
virile and elastic. It allays inflammation,
heals ulceration, soothes pain and tones
the shattered nerves. It fits for wifehood
and motherhood. It quickens and vitalizes
the distinctly feminine organism. It ban
ishes the maladies of the expectant months
and makes baby’s introduction to the world
easy and almost painless. It insures the
little new-comer’s health and nourishment
in plenty. It is the best supportive tonic
for nursing mothers.
Mrs. Jennie Parks, of Marshall, Spokane Cos..
Wash., writes: “ I am glad to tell of the g<xx 1
results of your great medicine.- -Dr. Pierr'-'s
Favorite Prescription. I was benefited by your
ledicine in confinement. It gives me strength.
I have no tired feeling and my baby is the
picture of health. I feel ladter than I have in
ten years."
In cases of constipation Dr. Pierce’s
Pleasant Pellets should be used as an
adjunct to the “Favorite Prescription,”
they are extremely simple, perfectly natural
and insure prompt and permanent relief.
