Another Good Old Mother Gone.
After a long and terrible battle,
Mrs. Martha Jones passed away to her
long home on Tuesday evening, the
12th instant. This good old woman
had long been the subject of severe and
deep affliction. Her physical form had
been greatly contracted and bowed
with distorted shape, but thanks be to
God, the hard battle is uow over. Her
long warfare in life’s terrible battle
has been finished and a glorious victory
won. Skepticism with its stupid
blindness stauds out in the shadows of
its own darkness, and derides the Chris
tian’s faith and hope as a thing not
worthy of a giant mind. She is now
gone to the land to await the testing of
her faith. Mirtha Edwards Jones was
born on the 21st day of October in the
year 1822. It will add nothing to her
peaceful slumbers by extending tbis
uotice to a lengthy detail of her long
life’s conflicts and sorrows. They are
known already to those whose hearts
were moved witn feelings of sympathy
in her behalf. No more will she need
our prayers and tears. She has thrown
on the old worn out casket to put on a
more enduring habitation. She was
laid to rest by the side of two elder
sisters. Some where on the celestial
plains in our Father’s many-mansioued
house, me thiuks the melody of goldeu
harps may be heard. Wait a little
while, children, t;ll you are callei to
go over to the “land beyond.” Your
beloved old grand ma, Carrie, will have
her mind ‘-all right,” and she will
know you For a long time, Carrie,
your old grand ma's mind was greatly
impaired, but it will never bo so again.
Tell me not that our loving Father will
ever desert.a faithful child in the dark
hours of mental failure. The pressure
was more than she could carry, but the
tug of her warfare is now “all over.”
Let her now sleep in rest. Yes, there
is rest for the weary in the fair fields
of Eden, where the tree of life is
blooming. Meet her tbere.
W. T. G.
Is it “over work” that has filled this
country with nervous dispeptics?—that
takes the flesh off there boues, the vi
tality from thtir blood, and makes
them feeble, emaciated and inefficient?
No. It is bad cooking, overeating of
indigestible stuff, and other health des
troying habits.
The remedy is an artificially digest
ed food such as the Shaker Digestive
Cordial. Instead of irritating the al
ready inflamed stomach, the Cordial
gives it a chance to rest by nourishing
the system itself and digesting other
food taken with it. So flesh and
strength return. Is not the idea ra
tional? The Cordial is palatable and
relieves immediately. No money risk
ed to decide on its value. A 10 cent
trial bottle does that.
Laxol is the best medicine for child
ren. Do ctors recommend it in place
of Castor Oil.

Why Her Faith Was Shaken.
An amusing story is told about a
worthy vicar of a rural parish who had
waxed eloquent in the interest of for
eign missions one Sunday, and was
surprised on entering the village shop
during the week to betreatedwith mark
ed coldupss by the worthy dame who
kept it. On seeking to know the
cause, the good woman produced a half
crown from a drawer, and, throwing it
down before the vicar, exclaimed:
“I marked that half crown and put it
in the plate last Sunday, and here it is
back again in my shop. I knowed
well them niggers never got the mon
ey.”—Clips.

MCDONOUGH, GA., FRIDAY JANUARY 22, 1807-
The Country Store In Polities.
The mistake is made in the flippant
stiictures of some newspapers that hold
up to ridicule and censure tbe cross
road stores as hot beds in which drastic
and dangerous political ideas are pro
pagated. These places of rural mer
chandizing are charged with being the
centres of low grade political activity,
where ignorantly opinionated crackers
and politicians aud agricultural mal
contents get together and hatch some
monetary and political monstrosities as
free silver theories and populistic doc
trines. No doubt a good deal of wild,
woolly and cranky sentiment in regard
to public affairs is expressed iu these
forums of rural opinion, but tbe far
mers who sit on the couutera iu the
winter evenings or occupy the nail
kegs or rice barrels around the stores
discussing the affairs of the nation, are
sensible people as a class, and of a
decidedly practical disposition.
'The majority of thorn are intelligent
and honest iu their inteutious and con
stitutioually conservative, and the good
of the couutry could be more safely
placed in their bands than iu some
classes that regard themselves as being
much wiser and better. For some
years past the country store have been
tbe scenes of political discontent. -The
cracker and baysoed politicians and ru
ral statesmen have bad reason to feel
that something was wrong iu the body
politic from which the agricultural in
terest was suffering. The farmers as
a class have not been prospering. A
widesptead conviction has prevailed
among them that other classes were
getting tbe benefit of governmental
politics to their disadvantage, and as a
natural consequence every cross road
store where they congregate has re
sounded with the discussion of their
grievances aud the suggestions of the
remedies needed to correct them. But
it is a mistake to suppose that because
that rural sentiment in regard to pub
lie policies lias been different trom that
which is expressed in Wall street bauk
parlors aud city clubs, it must necessa
rily be of a revolutionary and anarchic
tic character. The couutry store is
not a dangerous factor iu American
politics. It rather exerts an influence
in conjunction with the church aud
school bouse that tends to the cocser
vatism of our popular institutions.
These country stores have been the
primary school for some of the greatest
statesman we have to-day but has bad
for a distinguished occupant a graduate
from the country store. —Savannah
Fress.
Thore are two reasonable things
which every one should do; take good
care of one’s healthy: and if lost, regain
it quickly, and to this every body will
agree. And there are a great multi
tude of people who are agreed that for
both purposes Simmons Liver Regula
tor is the best helper. “I am troubled
wiih torpid liver and nothing gives re
lief so quick like Simmons Liver Reg
ulator.” —11. R. Stiange, Lake City,
Ela.
A Soothing Kind of Failure.
A Washington man who suspected a
colored man iu his employ of tampering
with bis private Ptock of whisky allow
ed the demijohn to become empty, and
instead of filling it up again, put the
liquor in bottles in a cupboard and la
beled them “poipon,” says the San
Francisco Argonaut.
Oue night as he came home from the
thearte he caught the colored servant
in the act. Seiziug the bottle in mock
terror, the employer exclaimed : “Great
heavens! Don’t you know that what
that bottle contains is marked “poison?”
The colored man held it off and
looked at it. Then he smelled it, and
with a look of melancholly, replied:
“’Tain’t poison, sub. I’s done been
fooled agin’.”
“How dare you tamper with it,
whether you know it is poison or not?”
“Boss, it was dis way. Fum de way
yoh acted ’bout dat demijohn in de
cellar I done thought yoh had yoh
s’picions ob me, an’ it made me mel
auchololly, for sho\ I’s been try in’ fob
mos’ two weeks ter commit suicide out’n
dat bottle.”
More Curative Power
18 contained in a bottle of Hood’s Sar
saparilla than any other similar prepar
ation. It costs the preprietor and
manufacturer more. It costs the job
ber more and it is worth more to the
consumer. It has a record of cures
unknown to any other preparation
It is the best to buy because it is the
Oue True Blood Purifier.

A Pitched Battle.
A little affair occurred in Pike coun
ty, a few miles lie’ow Griffin, last
Wednesday night that would have
arisen to the dignity of a great battle
if it had taken place ot?* the island of
Cuba. There was the overwhelming
odds of five to one on the part of the
attacking party, while the beleagured
patriot, though filled with as many
holes as .Maceo, still lives and holds his
fastness.
All the parties to the affair are col
ored, but the story shall be—simply a
plaiu narration of facts, though a sen
setional paper might make a page out
of it. t
Old Dave Mayberry occupies Col.
J. D. Boyd’s place aud sublet part of
it tbis year to Hob Duke, colored, but
became alarmed for bis rent and got it
through the process of a di-tress warrant
ni the fall. He concluded that be didn’t
want Bob as a tenant tbis year, and
also that the law was too slow as
a method of getting rid of him. So he
called his clans together and took an
inventory of his army. There was old
Dave Mayberry and his wife Mary
Ann Mayberry, his son youug Dave
Mayberry and his daughter Liza, and
an adherent by the name of George
Wilson.
Getting together in light marching
order, between eight and nine o’clock
by the moon, they went down to Bob’s
house and demanded that he come out
aud get out. Tbe noble* Duke obeyed
the first behest, but scorued the last
last one, aud the business of the eve
ning began in earnest. The first thing
in order was to fill the Duke with five
holes in different parts of his anatomy,
and this was done systematically and
successfully by young Dave. But af
ter that the regular order became some
what confused. Old Daive in too big
a hurry to get is his work while there
was room left in the target for a bull’s
eye, and in h : s haste shot out youug
Dave’s eye instead. Duke saw bis
opportunity whilo young Dave was
occupied with his own affairs, aud,
breathing vengeance through all five
new apertures, pmceedni to knock old
Dave down with his guru), aud trample
him somewhat heavily under foot.
George Wilson got somebody’s gun
and shot at Duke, but bit Liza in the
leg, wher upon be got whacked over
the head by Liza’s mother.
By this time Tom Graham ami Jim
Sims, who lived near by, had been
attracted to the scene Py the shots,
but the fight was over. The negro
Duke went into the house and went to
bed, and is still tbere. The Mayber
ry’s returned to their own domicile aud
proceeded to celebrate the great victo
ry they had achieved, and matters have
remained in statu quo ever since.—
Griffin News.
A Great Discovery.
A South Caroliua planter has made
a discovery that is likely to prove of
inestimable value to Southern farming.
He was auxious to try pecan grow
ing, but knowing that ten years are
required to bring a grove of pecan trees
into profitable bearing, he cast about
for some swifter method of propagat
ing the nuts. He secured some soft
shell pecan grafts and inserted them in
hickory trees.
That was three years ago, and the
present year ha gathered a full crop, of
flue, marketable nuts from the grafts,
which readily adap'ed themselves to
the hickory stock, and he hasliis grove
well set, in a paying condition, with
little or no trouble or expense. The
experiment succeeded so well that he
will proceed to enlarge his grove, as
there are plenty of stout hickory trees
on bis premises.
This seems to open the way to a
great industry in the South. The
climate of Georgia is well adapted to
the growth of pecans, and the only
objection to them has been that such a
long time is required to bring the seed
lings into bearing. By the grafting
process the time is reduced over two
thirds, and almost woithless forest
growth is utilized.
It would be-well worth tha while ol
farmers owning timbered tracts to try
the experiment Hickory nuts are of
very little value, but pecans find ready
sale iu the markets and are a splendid
articl of food for hogs. The industry
might be made to pay handsome returns
on many a half wornout farm in Geor
gia.—Rome TribuLe.

A Soldier's Story of President Lincoln
And Boys In Blue.
“Let this go. A. Lincoln.”
Uuless it has been destroyed there is
in a home in Fond du Lac county, Wis.,
a soldier letter in an envelope beariug
the above words, signed by the great
war president.
Frank King was a Lamartine boy.
fresh from the farm, and a character
our whole company took to kindly from
the first.
When the army was camped in Vir
ginia, near Washington, the winter of
1871 2, it was a common practice with
the soldiers, when they got a pass, to
visit the city to buy a package of en
velopes and call at tho capitol, send in
(or their senator or representative aud
get him to frank them.
One of our boys came back to camp
iu high feather. lie had two packages
of eveiopea—one frauked by Seuator
James U. Doolittle, uow a Chicago law
yer, tbe other by late Senator T. O.
Howe, who succeeded Captain James as
postmaster general in President Ar
thur’s cabinet. For 20 years senators
and members have been giving a good
deal of their time to helping the sol
diers with their pension claims. If
they have done it as. willingly and
pleasantly as they used envelopes for
the boys, they must be pretty nearly
angels.
“You fellows, there, are makiug a
big blast over getting a couple of sena
tors to frank your envelopes,” said
Frank King. “Just you wait till you
see me come back from Washington
with the president’s name on Homo let
ter covers.”
Within a few days Frank King and
Harry Dunn, who for years after the
war was a Chicago business man, went
to tbe city. They called at the White
Hou«o. It was easier to see the presi
dent theu than it is now. At certain
hours of the day a soldier could reach
the chief executive with fully as much
ease as a seuator can in these later
years.
King was the ringleader. Approach
ing tbe guard, lie said: “We want to
see Mr. Lincoln. Please staud aside
aud let us pass.”
“Who are you, and what is your
businest?”
“You tell old Abe we have charge
of a regiment over on Arlington
Heights and want to see him on an im
portant matter. He’ll let us in.”
“Where are your shoulder straps.’'”
“We camo ovei in our everyday
clothes. Come, we are in a hurry.
Let us go in and see Mr. Lincoln.”
The parley had attracted the atten
tion of the president. The door Bwung
open and the good natured chief of the
nation smiled upon the cheeky young
fellows and bade them step right in.
‘ What can 1 do for you my men?”
“Mr. Lincoln, I want you to frank
these envelopes,” said King.
“Better get your congressman to do
that.”
“I’d much rather have you do it,
.Mr. Lincoln. The folks at home would
like to see your name on my letters.”
“I’ll fix one of them. Take the rest
to your congressman. Who is he?”
“I dou’t know.”
“Where is your home?”
“Lamartine, Fond du Lac county,
Wis.”
“That is my friend Scott Sloan’s
district. You go to Mr. Sloan. He
will fix the rest of them.
The president shook hands with the
two privates, asked them to be brave
soldi.TS and wished them a safe return
to their western homes.
Frank couhtn’t make his tentmates
believe 'hat the president had written :
“Let this go. A. Lincoln.” But the
next day he wrote a letter to his fath
er. The name of Lincoln was person
ally examined by all of the neighbors.
In January, 1864, our regiment was
in Washington on the way home, hav
ing re enlisted—“veteranized,” as they
called it. lu company with two oth
ers I went to the White House. The
1 president shook hands with us, thank
jed us for sweaiing in for three years
more and expressed the hope that we
| would have a nice visit on our veteran
| furlough.
“Mr. President,” said Jones —Ed
Joucf—“you franked a letter for one
of the boys in our company, Frank
King. 1 wish you would frank oue
for me.”
• Odd as it may seem, you are the
second soldier to make such a request.
So b th are of the same company?
Very will.”
Ou Jones’ envelope he wrote “A.
Lincoln, President,” and as he handed
Highest of all in Leavening Power.—Latest U S. Gov’t Report
RgwfeKS
Absolutely pure
it back he asked what had become of
the other man who had asked him to
pass a letter.
I “He was killed at Gettysburg.”
' I shall never forget the look of sad
ness in the president’s face when tbe
answer was given, and it had not dis
appeared when we left the room.
“Jones, what did you tell him about
King for? Did you see how it pained
him?”
“ What did he ask about him for?
Do you suppose 1 was going to lie to a
man 1 would die for?” was Jones’ in
dignant reply.—Chicago Times Her

Hot Water in Dlseaso.
Hot water is one of the most valua
ble of household remedies. Wbethei
iu tho bath, tho water bottle, the rub
ber bag or in tbe form of a beverage,
it has healing powers that have never
been imagined, much less appreciated,
by the majority of persons. Hot baths
will cure many of the ills that fiesh is
heir to; hot foot baths aud a hotter wa
ter bag at tbe back of tbe neck will
relieve almost any ordinary headache.
Hot water taken as a morning drink
will almost certainly cure dyspepsia
aud sluggishness of the liver. Oue
hygienic enthusiast declares that the
reason eo little is said by physicians
about the use of hot water is that they
would be deprived of so many patients,
for it will cure more cases of indiges
tion than all of the pills that they can
prescribe. There seems to be but lit
tle literaturo on tbis subject, aud one
can scarcely understand why, save for
tbe reason given above. As for regu
lar water cure treatment, there are
many publications on that subject, but
opinions differ so widely as to their
special methods that it is scarcely al
lowable to commend any particular one
above another. Auy book seller or
news dealer will furnish you with a list
of the leading boohs on water cure,
and you can write and get the contents
of auy one that pleases you. But
most of them advocate cold water in
stead of hot, aud this is by no means
what is wanted.—New York Ledger.
makeshift’s For Mothers.
If straws show the way the wiud
blows—and very frequently they do—
it would seem that for some women to
be mothers nowadays was a positive
calamity—for the child. It does not
require a loug memory to recall the
time that when a wonaa i became a
mother her first thought was the care
of her child. Nowadays, however, the
the first anxiety of some mothers seems
to be how to get lil cf that care.
Nurses, governess, mother in law, kin
dergartens, are all resorted to for the
care of the child—every medium is
thought of except the mother herself
Happily, one can say, and, thank the
Lord, rightly believe, that this state of
affairs does not by any means apply
to all women who are mothers. But
all too frequently something occurs to
show how widely prevalent are the
misconceived ideas of the duties of
motherhood. Such a case is very a} tlv
reflected in the following portion of a
letter written by a woman of good
family and intelligence:
“I cannot quite decide what to do
about my child. I have not the time
to train him myself. This may sound
strange to you, but I have so many
duties of a chatitable and religious
nature, which of course, must be at
tended to. Trust worthy nurses or
maids seem to be a relic of the past,
while the kindergarten nearest ny
home is sadly lacking in proficiency.
Not much is left, then, you see.”
No, I see, there isn’t a great deal
left, for a fact—aot much except the
mother herself, and she, as she says
herself, is too busy with philanthropic
duties to take time for the trainirg of
her own child.

A Word of Counsel From Dr. Hurt
man, Whose Name Hus Become
Known to Thousands of
Mothers.
Midwinter is here. The nights are
long and cold. The days are short and
changeable i:i temperature. Cold
creep in at every crevice and draughts
occur iu spite of the utmost vigilance.
I'he .tireless patience aud sagacity of
mother even, fails to keep the house
hold safe from climatic diseases. Colds
soon develop into chronic catarrh. A
cough rapidly becomes consumption.
LaGrippe undermines the system dan •
gerously. Influenza leaves injuries to
head and throat, hard to remove. All
these thiugs the mother strives in vain
10 guard her household against. How
can she best do it? First, get some
Peru ua. Second, send to The Pe
ru na Drug Manufacturing Company,
Columbus, Ohio, for a free copy
of Dr. Hartman’s latest book on the
climatic diseases of winter. This book
in plain aud direct language, informs
the mother exactly what to do in all of
the liabilities and emergencies resulting
from vriutry weather. Not only will
she be able to prevent diseases, but she
knows exactly how to cure them. In
case she is doubtful on any point, if
the book does not fully explain it, she

is a vigorous feeder and re
sponds well to liberal fertiliza
tion. On corn lands the yield
increases and the soil improves
if properly treated with fer
tilizers containing not under
7 % actual
Potash.
A trial of this plan costs but
little and is sure to lead to
profitable culture.

told in a little book which we publish and will gladly
nuul fr e e to any farmer in America who will write for it.
