The Herald is mad,
,J - -'■Theilev-il Is glad.
Arid Ch Herds Up & free;
u ‘ Ttnycottcd toad
. With a do le fa i ode—
•Twnuld not transport him free.
We are living in a slow age.
Considering the public roads.
Good reads are a great saving
to farmers in time, stock ami
v e nicies.
Houston comity will soon have
good roads: her convicts are at
work on them.
The Cordele Herulu lias had
another tit. The railroad refused
to transport the editor free.
No apology is necessary for our
public roads. The less we can say
about them the better we feel.
When a man gets old lie cannot
ride through this part, of the coun¬
try much: the roads are too rough.
The Cordele Herald hns boy¬
cotted tlie Georgia Southern rail¬
road, and the editor still rides
on it.
The Herald editor refuses “to
see ttie point, in Henry Smith’s
prize essay on frogs.” Of course
—lie’s a pop.
A man is in the public road
gang in Houston county six
niontlis for stealing a ride of five
miles on a GeorgiaSouthern train.
If the Georgia Southern & Flor¬
ida railroad goes into the hands
of a receiver during the next, six
weeks, it will be from the effects
of t lie Cordele Herald’s boy cot.
At last accounts the Cordele
Herald had not settled that colony
of 10,000 people within six miles
of Cordele; and when this cruel
war is over he will not yet have
settled them.
TlioCordele Herald is trying to
sing the Advance oat of the dem¬
ocratic party, because the Ad¬
vance believes more in sound
money than in free silver. The
editor of the Herald said with Ins
mouth in this office, about two
months ago, that the advocates of
the gold standard were the only
true and original democrats.
However, his saying it didn’t
make it so, but it shows the va¬
riance between bis lip and his pen.
“It’s no joke” when we say
that. Dr. Tichenor's Antiseptic is
superior to anything offered to
the “dear people” as a dressing
for wounds, bites and stings of
insects, “poison oak,” etc. It’s
cleanliness, pleasant, odor and
quick cures makes it a universal
fa”orite wherever known. Price,
60c.
Stand up, Mr. Advttnee, and an-
swer the following question:
“What sort of a democrat are
yon?” —Corde!e Herald.
That sort that can run a busi¬
ness without cursing the govern¬
ment.
Dr. Tichenor’s Antiseptic is the
most wonderful healing compound
of the nineteenth century. Pre¬
serves the flesh, preventing in-
fluillation and heals like magic.
Ask your druggist for it.
The Georgia Southern railroad
furnishes a pass for advertising
to every little democratic # sheet
between Macon and Palatka, but
will not make a contract with the
Herald, because of its politics.—
Cordele Herald.

is worth his attention.
Rheumatism Cured

Pain Bil;:i for rheumatism with
great relief, and I can recommend
it as a splendid liniment for rheu¬
matism and-other household use

Probably Macdonald is trying
to head ofT that populist mob the
Herald promises to settle near
Cordele.
In I -83 my wife went, East and
was attacked with rheumatism.
She received no relief until she
tried Chamberlain's Pain Balm.
Since that time she has never been
without it. We find it gives in¬
stant relief in cases of burns and
scalds and is never failing for all
rheumatic and neuralgic puins.—

It is a small-soiiied editor who,
at this trying time, views every
move of the government, with a
critical eye for the sole purpose of
making political ouncoinbe out of
it. There is much hypocrisy and
no patriotism in such a course.—
Colony Citizen.
Whisper such things softly;
the Cordele Herald is breathing
rapidly already.
I was reading an advertisement
of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholora
and Diarrhoea Remedy in the
Worcester Enterprise recently.
which leads me to write this. I
ran.truthfully say 1 never used
any remedy equal to it for colic,
diarrhoea, 1 have never had to
use more than one <>r two doses to
cure the worst cases with myself
or children.— W. A. Stroud, i*o{ j-

A. Murray,
When the big populist, camp
meeting is held in Cordele this
summer, the Herald will advise
people along the line of the Geor¬
gia Southern to come to our city
in wagons and buggies, and not
spend a blamed cent with a road
whose management hates them on
account of their politics—Cordele
Herald.
Another gnat on a cow's horn.
The Herald did not,say all dem¬
ocrats were liars and thieves, and
the Advance can’t, show any such
language in the Herald. We did
not even sav any of them were,
and we defy the Advance to pro¬
duce it. We only quoted what a
Doolv county democrat said about
bis own party. Ho said (not the
Herald) that the democrats could
beat the pops lying and stealing.
Don’t misrepresent ns, Mr. Ad-
vanee.—Ooldele Herald.
Crawfish sometimes crawl into
a ’gator’s mouth. The Dooly
county democrat doubtless made
the remark in the form of a joke.
The Herald published it in the
form of a fact, and indorsed it
with : t- publication. We some¬
times talk about each other, but
will not, extend that privilege to
an enemy.
There are three little things
which do more work t han any oth-
er three little things created-they
are the ant, the bee and DeWitt’s
Little Early Risers, the last being
the famous little pills tor stomach
and liver troubles.—Betts & Co.
Mr. W. R. C a nova left
nesday for a visit to Florida, and
his wife and baby left yesterday
for her old home near Montezuma.
There was some speculation and
remarks concerning Mr. Canova's
to Florida just at this
time. He is of Spanish descent,
and critics looked on him with
suspicion. His father and
mother came one day and lie
went home with them the next,
Mrs. Canova said to a reporter
that her husband was no more a
Spaniard than the rest of us, and
that his visit to Florida was a
prnate ailair not concerning
either nation. Mr. Canova’s an-
eestors came from Spain more
than 100 years ago, and he is an
American.

Harlequin Bug.

ness from all sides.
Answer.—T he bug rent is the much
dreaded “Harlequin ling,” the worst
known insect enemy cf cruciferous
plants. They live through the winter
hidden under leaves or trash of any
kind. All rubbish, unrler which the
bugs ran take refuge during the winter,

deal with, as they cannot be reached
by any of the arsenical poisons,
When the bugs are young Persian
insect powder in decoction, or dry,
will often prove effectual. Hand¬
picking is often resorted to, throwing
the hugs as picked into pans or cups
containing kerosene. Cabbage growers
plant mustard between the rows of cab¬
bages. The bugs prefer I lie mustard
and it attracts them in large numbers.
