AN ELEGANT AFFAIR.
An Enjoyable Event at the Home of Judge
and Mrs. Guerry.
“The moon shines bright.—ln such a
night as this—
When the sweet wind did gently kiss
the trees—
And tbey did make no noise, in such a
night— ;
Trolius, tlr;e thinks, mounted the Trojan
walls--
And sigh'd his soul toward the Grecian
i tents—
Where Cressid lay that night.”’
Just such a night, when lovers are
won't to interchange thoughts drawn by
mutual inspiration, repeat o’er and o’er
their time-worn love ditties, an evening
when the sentiuvels of night vie with
each other in their effulgency, w s Tues
day evening of last week. Place, the
home of judge and Mrs. J, H. Guerry—
occasion, in honor of Miss Mariha
Goode, of Atlanta, and Miss Mary Goode,
of Lumpkin, nieces of the host and
hostess,
One of the most unique features of the
evening was the post office department,
made especially attractive on accouut ot
the charming postmistress, whose nimble
fingers were constantl y employed in
placing billet doux into eager, oustretch
ed hands. Then came the fortune teller.
Think of it! The destiny of God’s no
blest handiwork inscribed on a sheet of
paper and encased in a hull of that
fruit which makes famus the red hills ‘
of the Empire state. Mademoiselle ex- |
claims: “Surely this is luck!’ Her pea
nat revelation: ‘‘Thou shalt marry in
the course of a year.” A listener in
pants: ‘‘What fools these mortals be,
Miss Brunson, the accomplished elocu
tionist, and Miss Martha Goode, one of
the charming visitors, favored those
present with beautiiful recitations, and
the song by Mrs. Whitehead was the
trea: of the evening.
§ }Private rehearsal (place, end of veran
da)—He: *lt is thyself, mine own self’s
better part; mine eye's dear eye, my
dear heart’s dearer heart.”” She—
¢‘O Love!be moderate;allay thy ecstacy;
In measure rain thy joy;scant this excess
1 feel toco much thy blessing,make it less
For fear I sufeit”’
Of course this was only adisplay of
Shakesperean research.
During the evening an elegant repast
was served. Surely this was an occa
sion to be long remembered by those
whose good fortune it was to be present.
It’s a Curious Woman
who can’t have confidence in Dr, Pierce s
Favorite Prescription. Here is a tonic
for tired-out womanhood, a remedy for
all its peculiar ills and ailments—and if
it doesn’t help you, there's nothiug to
pay.
What more can you ask forin a med
icine?
The ‘*‘Prescription’” will build up,
strengthen and invigorate the entire fe
male system. It regulates and promotes
all the proper functions, improves diges
tion, enriches the blood, dispels aches
and pains, brings refreshing sleep, and
restores health and vigor. In ‘‘female
complaints’” of every kind and in all
chronic weaknesses and derangements,
it's the only guaranteed remedy. If it
doesn’t benefit or cure, in the case of
tired-out of suffering woman, she’ll have
her money back.
Nothing urged in its place by a deal
er, though it may be better for him te sell,
can be “just as good” for you to buy.
Dr, Pierce’s Pellets cure constipation,
piles, biliousness, indigestion and head
aches.

DYING WITH CHOLERA.
The Farmers Are Losing Many of Their
Hogs.
The farmers of the county are losing
many of their hogs by cholera, and un
less the disease is checked the quantity
of home raised meat next winter prom
ises to be considerably reduced.
Judge R. F. Simmons tells Tue News
that the disease has recently killed for
him abou: 30 prospective porkers, and
that there are now only three or four
hogs on his plantation. Mr. A. J. Carver
is another heavey loser, his loss being
as great or greater than that of Judge
Simmons.
Dr. Salmon, the chief of the bureau of
animal industry, has just issued a bulle
tin on this sabject which ought to be in
the hands of every hog keeper, and can
be obtained on application to the depart—
ment of agriculture, Washington, D. C.
Dr. Salmon says that whilst no abs)lutely
certain cure can be found for any disease,
and certainly not for hog cholera, yet
‘that, as the result of a long serics of ex—
| periments, the following has been found
to be a most efficacious formula in most
cases of this disease, and is vaiuable as a
preventive: Ibs.

Pulverize aud thoroughly mix and
give a large tablespoonful for each 200
pounds weight of hogs once a day. Feed
on soft food, made of bran and shipstuff
or bran and corn meal mixed in hot
water, and stir in the proper quaatity of
the medicine. Animalsftoo sick to eat
should be drenched with the medicine
mixed in water. In drenching a hog,
never throw him on his back or rope
him and force him to take the medicine.
The chances are that 1f you do you will
choke him. Pull out the side of his
cheek from his teeth and thas make a
pouch into which pour the medicine,
and it will run into his mouth and be
swallowed, or take an old shoe and cut
off a small part of the toe, so as to make
a hole through, and put this in his
mouth. He will generaily commence to
chew the shoe—then pour the medicine
into the shoe and it will find its way
slowly into the mouth and be swallowed.
To Meet at Swithville.
