At the foot of the Blue ridge mountains
Life is so happy and tree

Through many towns we may travel
As we this journey pursue
But none can leave the impression
Of the town at the foot of the Blue.
Farewell, dearest Homer we leave tliee
Our desire to stay is in vaiu
But if we live till next summer
We are sura to srisit you again.

My little boy, when two years of
age, was taken vei v ill with bloody
flux. I was advised to use Cham
berlaiu’g Colic, Cholera and Diarhoea
remedy, and luckily procured part of
a bottle. I carefully read the direc
tions and gave it accordingly. He
was very low, but slowly and surely
he began to improve, gradually re
covered, and is now as stout and
strong as ever. I feel sure it savtd
his life. I never can praise the rem

We have been beaten for office ever
since the war, but the blamed thing
runs in our blood and not even an in
junction can stop us.
Running for office this season gave
us a chance to fail m business. First
clear money we’ve made since Lee’s
sur. end er.
The govenor having offered a big
reward for lynchers, we forthwith
strung up a personal friend, got our
wife to inform on us, received the re
ward and enlarged the paper.
The beefsteak roasts in our hands
while we are taking it home from
market, and the eggs are hard boiled
before we go ten yards with ’em.
Thank the Lord for this economical
weather.—Atlanta Constitution,

Silica 1878 there have been nine
epidemics of dysentery in different
parts of the country in which Cham

malignant cases, both of children and
adult'), and under the most trying
conditions, which proves it to bo the
best medicine in the world tor bowel
