Any ene wishing to sell a good milk cow with young calf will please call on Mrs. Dorough. Miss Nellie Harris has been quite sick for some time past, but we are glad to state she is improving.

Parties wishing to borrow money on land on easy terms; or desiring life insurance in first class corny any will find it to their interest to call on us at Ilomer during courtwcek. Chandler & Mahnffy. The Gazette stated in its last issue that two most charming young ladies came in the office and asked speciolly for the junior. Said state ment was incorrect. The young la dies stated that they came especially to see the senior, for which he ex tends his heartiest thanks. The National garment cutter has been tried and is found to be the best system for cutting all kinds of garments, made. Any person wish ing to learn will address J. E. Hitch, Ilomer, Ga. Owing to the weather the congre gation at Salem was very small Satur day, but the crowd was large on Sun day, and quite an able sermon was preached by Dr. Mixon, the presiding elder. It was the first quarterly meeting for this, Homer, circuit. Rev. J. F. Goode preached a prac tical sermon on the duties of church members last Sunday, at the Baptist church, to an interesting audience. He insists that religion should be a principle—practice what you profess. If you are a Christian let the world know it. Don’t hide your light under a bushel. There is a young man who lives in Oglethorpe county frequently leaves home for the (stated) purpose of visiting relatives in Homer, but at the cross roads some miles southeast of here he takes to the right and goes off down into Franklin county. We thought the game had long since disappeared from this country, hut he must be dear hunting. The Insurance Guardian quotes a contemporary as saying: “It is an absolutely proved fact that chronic drinking of even small quantities of alcoholic beverages tends most ma terially to increase the risk by short ening life and by weakening the con stitution, so that even a trivial illness at once kill or forever damage tue health;” and itself adds: This witness is true; and even the most prejudiced are gradually arriving at the same conclusion, being unable to resist the ever accumulating evidence.”—Na tional Temperance Advocate.
