BARNESVILLE, GA., THURSDAY, MAY 18, 1899.
HERE AND THERE
The teachers from fifteen counties
have already decided to meet in Bar
nesville during Chautauqua week, in
the inter-county teachers institute,
and there are several other counties
yet to decide. There will be close to
twenty counties assembled here at
that time. It will be the greatest
teachers’ institute in the state and
second only to the convention of the
Georgia Teachers’ Association.
The Newnan Herald & Advertiser
contains this notice in its last issue
about a gentleman well known and
highly regarded here:
“In the May‘number of Georgia
Education there is an article from Mr.
J. C. Woodward on the subject,
“Bridging the Gulf Between the Home
and the School.” The article exhib
its much thought in its preparation,
and contains many wise and timely
suggestions. The sooner parents
realize the fact that they must co-op
erate with the teacher in all the work
of mental development of the child,
the better. It requires the combined
efforts of teacher and parent to make
education what it should be. Such
ideas as are promulgated in the article
of Mr. Woodward are calculated to
do much good.”
Preparation is being made for a
most interesting commencement at
Gordon Institute, beginning on Sun
day, June nth, when Dr. J. D. Jor
dan of Savannah, will preach the
commencement sermon. It will be
an interesting week throughout and
there will be many visitors in the city
at that time. Commnncement is an
event of great importance to Barnes
ville ar.d the exercises this year will
be unusually interesting.
The Newnan Herald & Advertiser
last week contained this item of inter
est to the people of Pike county:
“Mr. J. H. Milner, sheriff of Pike
county, was in Newnan last Saturday
and received into his custody a negro
named Willis Williams, who was want
ed in Pike for assault with intent to
murder. Williams was captured by
Marshals Brewster and and Widener
one night last week, about four miles
west of Newnan. Although sailing
under an assumed name, he proved
to be the darky wanted.”
All the machinery from the Staf
ford-Huguley Hosiery Company’s
plant has been moved into the Han
son-Crawley building and the two
plants consolidated into one. It will
be several days before all the machin
ery is gotten in place and put in
operation but the deal is an impor
tant one and will mean much for the
parties interested and for all of Bar
nesville.
Barnesville is growing. Besides
work that is being finished on a num
ber of new homes, contractors have
just begun on new houses for Mrs.
Jennie Williams on Zebulon street,
Mrs. M. F. Stephens on Forsyth
street and the important improvement
to be made in a handsome dwelling
for Dr. C. H. Perdue on Thomaston
street has been commenced. All
these improvements will add much to
Barnesville. The city needs to put
up one more big manufacturing es
tablishment this year.
Mr. John T. Chambers has been
successful in winning the whip prize
again offered by the firm for which he
travels, the Beck & Gregg Cos. of At
lanta. He won this prize last year
by selling more goods than the other
salesmen and he gets it again. He
is one of the most successful salesmen
on the road.
Mr. Ernest Pope, private secretary
of Mr B. W. Wrenn, the well known
railroad man of the great Plant sys
tem, visited the family of his father,
Judge J. S. Pope, at Zebulon last
week. Mr. Pope is held in great es
teem by the officials of the roat , and
has an excellent position. He spends
much of his time in Florida, Cuba and
New York and has much advantage
in traveling. He is a young man of
much promise and has advantages
that come to few young men. Those
who know him predict much for him.
Miss Lillian Mitchell, who was
quite sick recently, suffering with an
abfess on account of some dental
work, is much improved and will
probably be entirely recovered In a
few days. For several days she suf
fered considerably.
The Barnesviile Catfish Club has
been at Satilla river for several days.
They went first to High Springs, Fla.,
but jsoon decided that they had made
a mistake, and they packed up and
moVed to their old fishing ground on
Satillo, where they have been catch
ing kll the fish they wanted. They
have enjoyed their trip.
Mfews has reached Barnesviile this
week of the serious illness of Miss
Sallie Candler at Hoschton, near
Gairfesville. She is well known in
Barnesviile, having been an honored
teacher of Gordon Institute for years
and she has a host of warm friends
here, who regret to hear ot her illness.
She is reported better and we hope
to hear of her early recovery.
Barnesviile wants to secure at least
one more good manufacturing plant
this year. It is necessary for the
continued growth of the little city
and all citizens should be willing te
do what they can in this direction.
To Meet at Warm Springs.
Owing to the uncertainty of secur
ing hotel accommodations at Cum
berland, Prof. Jere M. Pound, presi
dent of the Georgia Teachers Asso
ciation, announces that the conven
tion will be held at Warm Springs,
on June 26th. to 30th. All arrange
ments have been made for meeting
at Warm Springs and the program
l will be the same as that recently
published. All railroads have gran
ted a rate of one fare for the round
trip and the hotel rates are $1.50
per day Prof. Pound thinks the
change to Warm Springs will be very
acceptable to the teachers of the
state. It is centrally located, and
the hotel accommodations and serv
ice will be ample and satisfactory.
Among the attractions are superb
swimming pools and baths and in
many other respects it is a delightful
meeting place. Every preparation is
being made for a successful conven
tion.
Dr. Nelkin Returns.
I)r. H. Nelkin returned to Atlan
ta Saturday, after a stay of several
days in Barnesville last week. He
treated a number of people’s eyes
and was very well pleased with the
results of his trip. He is a pleasant
gentleman. He will return to the
city for several days again soon, the
time to be announced later.
Picnic at Bailey’s Mill.
There will be a picnic at Bailey’s
Mill on Saturday, May 20th. Every
body is invited to attend and carry
a basket. Ice water free to all.
There will prabably be a large crowd
and a good time.
t'l )) starvation
.. howls at the
of thott-
srf majority of
J cases, is starva
’, -Z'ATi tion, pure and
Simple. It
' 7 means that
body, brain.
<V** n ' rv ?- bone
"X s and smew are
improperly or
insufficiently nourished. Improper, insuf
ficient nourishment is starvation.
When a man’s head aches it is because
the tissues of the brain do not receive
sufficient nourishment from the blood, or re
ceive impure and unhealthy nourishment.
When a man (jets nervous and sleepless, it
means that the blood is not properly nour
ishing the nerves. When his skin breaks
out with blotches and pimples and erup
tions, it means that the skin is being fed
upon the impurities of the blood. Almost
every known disease is primarily due to
improper nourishment through the blood,
which is the life-stream. Or. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery is the greatest
of all blood-makers and purifiers. It gives
edge to the ajppetite, corrects all disorders
of the digestion, makes the assimilation of
the life-giving elements of the food per
fect, invigorates the liver, promotes secre
tion and excretion, and vitalizes the whole
body. It makes firm, muscular flesh, but
does not make corpulent people more cor
pulent. It cures 98 per cent, of all cases
of lingering coughs, bronchial, throat and
kindred affections, which, if neglected,
lead up to consumption. It is the best of
•11 nerve tonics and restoratives. Kept by
•11 medicine dealers.
“ I was taken ill in February, 1592, with head
ache and pain in my back,’' writes H. Gaddis,
Ksrp, of 51:5 South J Street. Tacoma. Wash. “I
called in a doctor and he came three times. He
aaid I was bilious but I kept getting worse ; 1
took a cough so that I could not sleep, only by
being propped up in bed. My lungs hurt me,
and I got so poor that I was just skin and bone.
I thought I s going to die. I used two bottles
of Dr. Fierce's Golden Medical Discovery and It
made ate sound and well. It saved my life."
No remedy relieves constipation so
quickly and effectively as Dr. Pierce’*
Pleasant Pallets. They never gripe.
