It can drop the same idea into the minds of thousands of people at the same time. There are many people who roads nothing ’else, almost no one reads that does not n ad the news, papers at home, as an advertising medium it is by L.r the cheapest and best; and every business man who wishes to prosper and beet me a power in the land will keep the word “advertise” constantly he fore him ; take advantage of it on overy hand ; don't let an opportun ity pass to make your name and business favorably known. Every advertisement inserted attracts the eye of the outside world, and nothing else tends more towards the growth of a city. “Times are hard money is scarce basinets is dull, retrenchment is duty—please stop my—” Whiskey? ‘•Oh, no; times are not hard enough for that. But there is something else that costs me a large amount every year, which 1 wish to save. 1 leas stop my—” Ribbous, jewelry, ornaments, and trinkets? “No, no, not those, but 1 must retrench somewhere. Please stop my—” Tobacco,cigars, snuff? “Not these at all, but I be lieve I can see a way to effect quite a saving in another direction. Please stop my—” Tea Coffee and unhealthful luxuries? “No, no, nob these. I must, think of some thing else. Ah ! I have it now. Mv pa pc r c-i st £ 1 .CO uj » nr. Pit ate stop my paper. That will carry me through the panic easily. 1 belibve in retrenchment and econ ouy especially in brain.—Ex. JsOTT-TIRKER LUELLA, Ola.—Mr. Van Turner and .Miss Annie Lois Nutt were married Thursday afternoon at the home of the bride’s sister, Mrs. W. H. Btiley, Rev. J. F. Mashburn officiating. As it was a quiet affair only a few of their friends and relatives were present. Mr. Turner is a very prosperous young merchant of Hampton, where he is wi lely known in busi ness circles. The bride is a charm ing young woman and has a hosts of friends who regret that her marriage will take her from Luel la. After the cermony Mr. and Mrs. Turner lett for Hampton, where they will make their home.—Sun day’s Journal. The Atlanta Journal continues to get in its dirty work against the white man’s candidate for gover nor by publishing letters from soreheads, bushwhackers and ];ar asites. The Journal is a skunk in injecting its feted liquid at the white primary candidate, after having boen fairly and honestly de feated. It takes a man to stand defeat and the Journal’s editor falls far short <f being one.— Greensboro Herald Journal. “I cannot protect the dignity duo tho Democratic party if I re cognize a bolter as a legitimate can didate aganst its nominee.” said Joseph M. Brown. That whs a solar plexus between Bolter Carters’ eyes. The latter went into the primary, voted, for Governor Smith, lost his candidate and now bolts the nomination. He shou’d be held in contempt by every man who believes in the good faith which holds the moral -elementsof man together.-Greens boro Journal.

There is one subject which always in terests the mothers of youngchildren, and that is how to tirat their conghs and c 'lds. or to ward off a threatened attack of nr rip. For this purpose we can re commend Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It always proves beneficial. Incase of j croup it shoo'd be given as soon as the cr nmv c *ngh api ears, so as to prevet the attack. Keep it at hand ready for in stant use. Many mothers do so, and it saves them much uneasiness. For .-ale by Horton Drug Co. \ WHITE FEATHER FARM, Luella, Ca. I). M. WEEMS, Proprietor. J C.
