Miltk'N Weakness of itself is not a disease, and yet, it is an ailment that is most distressing. We admire strength but we pity weakness. Weakness is the etTect of disease. It is the last weap on of the grim monster before he lays his victim in the grave. Weakness, like pain, is a warning that the system is out of order, that the machinery of life is being tampered with and does not run smoothly. Weakness means the blood is impoverished, the diges tion is poor, the appetite is gone, the system is clogged and the various func tions of the body are disored. Nature is calling for aid. Obey the call. As sist nature by using a few bottles of !)r. .101 l it lliill s Kars.i|uirilln. You will he surprised to feel so much lietter.

McDo.noi cm, (la. June 7th, 1892 1 lie Democratic Executive Committee of Henry county met to day pursuaut to call, and organized as follows: On motion, Capt. S R. Brown was made Chairman, and D. J. Grertt was nomi nated and elected Secretary. The committee being ready for business, the first thing that engaged their attention was the electing of a member from this couuty of the Democratic Executive Committee of the 6th Congressional Dis. trict, the State having been redisti ict ed. and this county having been trans ferred from the sth to said 6th Con gressional District. On motion, G. W. Bryan was elected as such member. On motiou it was agreed that a pri mary election be held in the several Districts of this county on Saturday, the 30th day of July next, to nominate a Democratic Candidate for election to the Douse of Representatives, the votes to be consolidated in McDonough on Tuesday thereafter, the 2nd day of August. Said primary electiou shall be held and conducted, as elections are usually held and conducted for mem hers of the Legislature, and under the same rules. The qualifications of elec tors shall be the same as those of elec tors for members of the Legislature, and governed specially by the same rules governing Democratic primaries heretofore in this county. It was fur ther moved and agreed that a Demo cratic mass meeting be called for the first Tuesday in August next to select delegates to the Gubernatorial Conven tion. There being no further business on hand the committee was adjourned, subject to the call of the chairman. D. J. Grk.k.n, S. R. Brown, Secretary. Chairman. A Worthy Man. Mr. John Moss, although he has but one arm, is one of the best and most independent farmers in Henry county. By industry and economy he has gath ered around him a comfortable compe tency, besides having some of the prod ucts of his farm to sell. This year he has sold nearly a hundred bushels of corn, and still has a little “surplus” left, which he is holding “to see how things ate going to turn out.” Other tliiugs have been sold too. Whenev er necessary he cuts all of his own stove wood, and does as much general work about the farm as a lot of men with two good arms. In short John Moss, the genial, clev er one-arm man, is one of Henry county’s very best citizens, who de serves credit for what he has done and is doing in life. If his superior can be found in any other couuty we would like to hear from it. Festival. Lst everybody attend the festival at the Browri house this (Friday) evening, at 8 o’clock. Remember it is for the benefit of the Ladies’ Cemeterv Socie ty, and you will be aiding a good cause. The ladies should receive a glad en courageraent in their work of love, for people well know with what commend able devotion their labors have been given to an object which otherwise would have beeu neglected, to the ut ter shame of McDonough. That the care and preservation of our cemetery should be left to a few nothing less than ashumeful acknowledgement — and now that an opportunity is exten ded to aid them a little, surely no one will withhold it. An evening of pleasure is promised those who attend. Let everybody be there. Matrimonial. On Wednesday afternoon last, at the residence of the bride's father in this city, Rev. J. E. Rosser officiating, Miss Stella Moore was united in marriage to Mr. William Woodward, of Butts county.

A friend who has known her, inti mately, for a number of years gives the following interesting sketch of one ol our best kuowu Georgia Artists : “Mrs. Gregory stands easily at the head of the list of “Our Soothers Ar tists,” and is a woman of wonderful euergy and natural tulent, with a high degree of culture both in literature and art. She studied several years in the Academy of Arts, Philadelphia, where she still holds a life membership. She also worked in the Cooper Institute, New York, for a long time, aud has had fine training under several noted European artists. Among her nest known pictures are those portraits of Hon. Ben Hill, Judge James Jackson, Henry Grady and Mrs. Maiy Biyan, the authoress. The legislature of Georgia paid her the high honor of appointing her to paint the full length “Heroic Portraits” of Hon. Alex Stephens and Gov. Herschel V. Johnson. These pictures adorn the walls of the new capital in Atlanta, Ga. She has just finished a great work, (uuother order from the legislature of Georgia) tho renovating and retouch ing of all the old State portraits from the old capitol—some seventeen in number—many brought over from Milledgeville. These she has restored to all their original freshness and beau ty, and they also hang in the new capi tol. Mrs. Gregory was horn in Apalachi cola, Fla. Her original name wai Ma ry Bland Rogers. Iler father, Mr, Charles Rogers, was a prominent cot merchant, and for many years carried on a banking business in Columbus, Ga , where he was long and favorably known, before moving to Marietta, Ga. Her parental ancestors were digtin guished revolutionary heroes, among them the celebrated Platt family of Duchess county, New York. Zepher uiah Platt was the first Senator elected by the Slate of New York to the first Congress of the United States. Rich ard Platt wus Aid de Camp to general Montgomery at the fall of Quebec. On her mother's side she belongs to the illustrious Virginia families of Spottswoods and Blands, and is closely connected with, that celebrated artist Rembert Peel. Mrs. Gregory was married at an early age to Dr. John R Gregory, a well known druggist of Tallahassee, Fla., now of Atlanta, Ga. She has painted many portraits for private individuals, as well as for pub lic bui'.dit.gs, and is still filling orders for all parts of the South and West Her portraits are noted for strength of the likeness and the soft, elegant, fine finish of her flesh tints. This well known artist has been a resident of Atlanta for several years, and was the first lady artist to open her studio in the city. She is ideuti fied with the growth and progress ol that enterprising city. Atlanta is justly proud of her distinguished worn en who since the war have filled the ranks in literature, science, art aud re ligion. A I .ciulcr.

This from the Sparta Ishmaelite will find a hearty responos from scores of Georgia voters: “The Georgia pension laws need amendment. No man nr woman with a competence should receive a peusion from the State. The people are too poor to pay pensions to people who are not in needy circum stances —and they ought to be ashamed to allow it.” As we go to press the Republican convention is wrangling over Harrison and Blaine at Minneapolis, with the prospect that a nomination will not be reached before Saturday of Monday. CATARRH Is a most loathsome, dangerous, and preva lent malady. It is a blood disease, usually of ScrofuloiiH origin, and for which local treatment is useless. Hefore health Is pos sible, the poison must he eradicated from tlie system, and to do tills SUCCESSFULLY the disease must be treated through the blood. For this purpose no remedy Is so effective as Ayer's Sarsaparilla. “ For tho past eight years, I have been severely afflicted with Catarrh, none of tho many remedies I tried affording me any re lief. My digestion was considerably Im paired, and my sleep disturbed by phlegm dropping into my throat. In September last l resolved to try Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, began to use it at once, and am glad to testify to a great improvement in my health.” Frank Teson, Jr., engineer, 211 West Fourth street, New York City. "My daughter, 10 years old, was afflicted with Catarrli from her fifth year. Last Au gust she was TREATED WITH Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, and after three months of this treatment site was completely cured.
