Does it ray to Buy Cheap ?
A cheap remedy for coughs and
colds is ail right, but you want
something tbatrwill relieve and cure
cite more severe and dangerous re
sults of throat and lung troubles.
vVbat shall you do? Go to a warm
er and more regular climate? Yes,
if possible; if not possible for you,
then in either case take the only
remedy that has been introduced in
all civilized countries with success
in severe throat and lung troubles,
• Boschee’s German Syrup.” It not
only heals and stimulates the tis
sues to destroy the germ disease,
but allays inflammation, causes easy
expectoration, gives a good night’s
rest, and cures the patient. T ry one

And now we can really hello at

Sunday School Picnic.
An excursion of Sunday school
folks of Augusta made a large pic
nic holiday here on Thursday last
and spent a delightful day at Rock
bridge driving park near the city
This is one of many that on are fol
a. m, until 8 p. m. the company
will treat to a free talk over the
line here with Augusta. The toll
line South is now beyond Lawton-
ville going to Millen to connect
with other lines.
We shall be getting things soon
right off the top.” Our difficulty
ia connecting with our suburban
villages, Augusta and Millen, lias
been removed and now we can tell
them without trouble whom to vote
for. They got a little mixed on Rey-
tolds in the election just passed, but
they will have no trouble hereafter
Miss Lillian Carter will handle
the talk at the exchange by day
ind Charlie Evans by night. Man-
iger Berrien and Constructor Hunt
nave worked liked beavers to get
hings in shape and no one ever
ucceeded better, May they live
long and prosper.
Deatli of Jno. 1>1. RlcCullers, Esq.
We learn with great regret w’hich
will be universally shared in the
county, the death of Jno. M. McCul-
lers, Esq., who departed this life on
15th inst. at his home in Burke
county. He was one of the few who
died without enemies and towards
whom all had friendly feelings. He
was one of those quiet and loveable
men who did his duty towards bis
fellows as he understood it. His
greatest ambition was to be a good
citizen, live quietly at home and in
ure no one.
In the Confederate war he was a
faithful soldier and answered the
call for his services as soon as he
was needed, but no one ever heard
f a boast from him when he enter
ed upon his quiet life again at home.
He leaves a wife and young daugh
ter to mourn his loss who have tbe
sympathy ot the whole community.
Summer School.
I will be prepared after June 10th,
1900. to Instruct pupils of the city of
Waynesboro, in any study that they
might be deficient and 1 will also

es of the state colleges. My work
will be under tbe immediate super
vision of my mother, whose reputa-
ion as a teacher is well known to
the public. My terms are $1.50 per

my whole family.” It acts imme
diately and cures coughs,colds,croup

throat and lung trouble, h. b. mc-
Master.
Mr. Fred T. Lockhart the super-
intendant of the Sunday school was
in general charge and expresses
himself as delighted with his trip.
The day was cool and pleasant and
the air very fine. There was
enough clouds to keep off too much
beat and refreshing breezes made
the outdoor life lovely. The whole
party returned to the city delighted
with their treatment by the Central
railroad authorities who made ev
erything most agreeable for them
The management of these excur
sions promise many more agreea
ble visits of the kind.
It our city aud county authorities
and the Central Railroad Company
would jointly move in the matter,
beautiful park grounds w’ould be
planned tnat would be a pleasure to
our citizens and a nice resort for
picnics from a disance.
Little Boy Bitten by a Stray Cur. Not Mad.
Little Joe. Reynolds, Jr., son of J.
J. Reynolds was bitten by one oi
the wretched stray dogs that cum
ber the earth about Waynesboro,
Monday last. The dog was seen in
the yard at Joe’s home where he
was playing. He thoughtlesoly ran
at the beast to drive it out of the
yard and it turned on him and bit
him severely through the left hand
and in many places on both arms.
The dog was not mad and seemed
to be in the yard searching for
something to eat. It soon spread
that a mad dog was out and in a lit
tle whileipistols and shot guns were
heard in a perfect fusilade. All tbe
good shots seems to have been out
of town how’ever,for the dog trotted
off and escaped to the woods north
of the city. Dr. McMaster hurried
to the little fellow and dressed the
wounds, which have healed up al
ready, and he goes to-day to Saluda,
N. C., with his parents.
Rather Curious.
Mr. Henry Vaughn, salesman for
the R. C. Neely & Co., tells this rath
er singular story. He went into a
storeroom where coffins, caskets
and undertaking goods are kept
some few doors distant from where
the regular business of the company
is done.
He was showing off some of the
gruesome furniture of this funerel
department to a customer and to
his surprise came across a live part
ridge. His mind turned at once on
ghosts and such supernatural things
as come to us on rare occasions,
supposed to be disembodied spirits.
As he had murdered partridges at
times in his life, shooting them od
the ground instead of giving them
a chance for life in flight,it natural
ly occurred to him that it must be a
‘•haunt.” It must be understood
that this room is always kept closed
except when a customer comes and
then only one door is opened.
Where did it come from ?
Like the fly enclosed in the am
ber ornament
“ 'Twas not that the thing
Was rich or rare,
But how the dickens did
The thing get there.”
W. S. Musser, Miilbeim, Pa., sav
ed the life of hislittle girl by giving
h r One minute Cough cure when
she was dying from croup. It is the
only harmless remedy that gives
immediate results. It quickly cures
oughs, colds, bronchitis, grippe,
asthma and all throat and lung
troubles. H. B. MCMaster.
“It is with a gcod deal of pleasure
and satisfaction that 1 recommend
Chamberlain’s Colic Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy,” says Druggist
A. W, Sawtelle, of Hartford, Conn.
“A lady customer, seeing the reme
dy exposed for sale on my show
case, said to me: ‘I really believe
that medicine saved my life the
past summer while at the shore,and

symptom. Consumption and bron

proven wonderfully successful, and

A Fish Fry.
What fellow in Burko County is
there who has not been to a Fish
fry, a place to have all kinds of fun
und to convert a dry dull day into a
pleasant and happy holiday. It i9
rare sport to listen to the rotund
talker as he regales his hearers with
the tale of the broom-sage burning
and tbe clothes wringing on a cold
March day: to listen to the man,
who dreams of wonderlul cats and
dogs aud rats and of strange fish
and snakes as he tells of seeing
that self-some day the biggest w
eat that ever grew and the cat
seeing him got mad and 'rat?*
to the bushes and fought its \
for an hour while he sat leisure’
the boat and listened to the roft
see a big fafr man stretched flat vu
stomach busily engaged in placing
on the inside of a suit of overalls
huge piles of Brier creek perch,corn
bread and coffee,staling,at the same
time in measured tones, that there
is in existence a peculiar bird which
has no gizzard; to watch the face of
the mao, who has “sworn off” for 99
years and a day, as his thirsty eye
follows the battle go the rounds of
the merry group; to hear another
promise faithfully to take and occa
sional drink if he leaves all his
shirts at the creek; to sympathize
with the poor devil who fell out of
the boat, and fished an hour in wet
underclothes and who on reaching
the bivouac, shirtless and sockless
could not find a“drap”to fill the cold
and aching yoid within; to have a
royal host who has the tact to make
each individual think he is the spe
cial guest of the occasion.
These little affairs made dull life
endurable, bind friends closer to
gether and make the partakers feel
that indeed the human race is some
thing akin to ihe brotherhood of
man.
But chronicle all the sayings and
doings at a Fry would fill volumes,
yet we are free to say now is the
season foe catching the famous red
and yellow perch of Brier creek and
