Time’s Solsloquy-
Old, call you me? Aye, when tlie
cornerstone of the universe was laid
I was on on deck. Before the first
circus joke had shot athwart the
morn, I was there. When the mor
ning stars sang together I might
have boon soon with my new hour
glass and crudo mowiug machine ta
king it all in
Amid tho bloom and verduro of
Paradise I gazed upon the new
world radiaut with celestial smiles,
Ere tho foot of man had trod tho
velvet groen of tho new earth, and
before the range had boon fed down
lino a base ball ground, I was
there,
lam the oldest inhabitant. Tho
song of the lurk and the twitter of
tho guinea lion wero first heard by
me. When Adam opened out for
himself and pre-empted the Garden
of Eden, I was on hand. W hen
Noah rounded up his stock and
built his boat, I was there.
I saw Babylon, Assyria, Palmyra
and Cheyenne rise, flourish and
bust Nero, Pontius Pilate and Su
san B Anthony entered upon tho
groat stago of action during my life
time, The ruins of Balaboo and
Ninovali were once proud struct
ureo, I saw them in their riso and
fall. I control tho fate of empires
and ward cauot'SßCS.
1 give them their glory and splca
dor and thou bust them in llio snoot.
Sooner or later I gather them lit
with my lawn mower and plant
thorn in awcot remotely. I spread
silken tresses on the brow of boun
ty and polish tho domo of man on
the front seat of tho “Blaok Crook,”
I paint the flush ol beauty ou the
chooK of the school muriu mid en
courage the sickly fuzz on the up
per lip of the bilious masher.
I mature the giant oak that grows
for centuries, as well us the cucum
ber that matures iu two weeks. I
pile up tho salary of tho newspaper
nubb and accumulate in to rest on
ou the twenty-four per cent note,
I bring around tho fall elections
and silver wedding with its dollar
storo castors and seventy five cent
butter dishes. I plant the false
teeth in the mouth ot the venerable
mid scatter sciatica and sadness
wherever I go. Young and beauti
ful or old and wheezy, I put tho
dobbin on thorn all, —Bill Nyo.
Around the State-
Mr Crawford Arnold, of Ogle
thorpe county, was bitten in the face
by a mad dog on Monday last. He
proceeded immediately to Columbia
county to try a noted “mad stone” in
possession of a gentleman in that
county.
The justices of the peace in Thom
as county, will meet in Thomasville
on Saturday next to take such steps
will insure the speedy building of
court houses in the districts having
no court houses. Justice in Thomas
is apparently on a boom.
Evaporated LcConte pears appears
to be anew industry in Thomas
county. The Times says of a sample
it masticated from 1,. E. Varnadoe's
evaporator that it was the “sweetest
‘-hied fin its its gums ever mashed.”
Georgia has a voting popu'ation (it
32 of which 143,471 are color
ed. The poll tax of one dollar each,
however, interferes seriously with the
privilege of the franchise.
The Pike county News says ; There
is not a bar room in operation in Put
nam county. The ordinary refused
to grant license in the county and the
city council of Eatonton put the li
cense at 53,000. That’s our kind of
prohibition.
Georgia is moving up in ht-T prop
er position. She is now placed thir
teenth rn the roll of states and terri
tories m the matter of railroad con
struction, and is set down in the list
as tenth in agricultural products.
The 'lTiomasville artesian well is
now 350 feet deep, and Thoraasville
puolic opinion pronounces it a deci
ded bore.
A well known citizen of Twiggs
county is somewhat of a matrimonial
ist, and should lie elected presklent of
a matrimonial association. This is Iris
record : He has married three wives
in the past fourteen months, and on
Friday last married another.
The Georgia farmers have full com
cribs, and lfthey desire to get two
prices for their corn andj at the same
time do their state a benefit, let them
turn their corn into ineat. The meat
produce is Georgia's best benefactor
at this time. Every bit of our surplus
com should be turned into cattle,
sheep, mtilet and hogs. Georgia
needs for fertilization purposes alone
ten times as much stock as she pos
sesses. - Ex.

ilAlfCE OF HEAL LIKE.
ChiUtauoomi Tiisn,
One of our reporters got an hul
ling of oue of thoso strange events
that sometimes happen to us mor
tals, and so wondrous did tho story
seem he bent his energies to get all
the facts, succeeding only partially.
Prior to the battle of Olilcamaugiv
there lived in tho northern purt of
Georgia a young couple happy with
each oilier and ,in more Ibancomfor
lable circumstances. Soiuo time after
the call tvas issued for volunteers
the young man enlisted in an Ohio
regiment that was m that part of
State. At tho battle of Cluoamirti
ga he was struck by a ball which re
sulted in his insanity. After tho
close of tho wiu ho was confined in
tho asylum, until about a year ago
was Tho young wife
awaited her husband s return, but
in vain. She mourned him as cloud.
Iu 1880 sho removed to Clndtunoo
gu.ond hnsjbeou residing here since.
Those two, by strango events, Uavo
been thrown together, both igno
rant of having met before. They
learned to like each other, and litfo
ripened into love. So much so that
lust Thursday night ho proposed to
tho lady.and was uooeptod. While
conversing the conversation turned
on war topics, mid while thu3 enga
ged stories of Ibo past lime, the
long ago, were brought out and the
groat story ot tho past crept piece
by piece together until tho old love
leap through tho years agono uud
the husband whose black locks wero
silverod with the gray of lime, and
the Wife whose youth had gouo out,
cried out tho endearing names of
old. ‘Twas then a neighbor visit
ing became aware of somu strange
event, and from the few explanations
that it seemed necessary our 'man
about town' was luabio to catch a
glimpse of this domestic event.
Things Worth Knowing-
That boiling water will remove tea
stains and many fruit stains ; pour the
water through the stain, and thus pre
vent it from spreading over the fabric.
That ripe tomatoes will remove ink
and other stains from white cloth ; al
so from the hands.
That a teaspoonful of turpentine,
boiled with white clothes, will aid the
whhening process.
That boiled starch is much improv
ed by the addition of a little sperma
ceti, or a little salt, or a little gum Ara
bic dissolved.
That beeswax and salt will make
llat-irons as clean and smooth as glass ;
tie a lump of wax in a rag, and keep it
for that purpose ; when the irons are
hot, ruh them with a rag, and then
scour with a paper or a rag sprinkled
with salt.
That kerosene will make tin tea ket
tles as bright as new; saturate a wool
cu rag and rub with it; it will also re
move stains from clean varnished fur
niture.
That kerosene will soften boots or
shoes which have been hardened by
water, and render them as pliable as
when new.
Japanese Farmers.
All travelers in Japan are impressed
with the smallness of the fields. A
wheat or barley field containing more
than two acres would be hard to find.
In most cases they do not exceed
one-fourth or one-half an acre. Their
farming is all on a very small scale.
Many of their rice fields resemble lit
tle lawns or croquet plats, and a few
rows of potatoes-or other vegetables
are all the average farmer ever thinks
of planting. Notwithstanding the
smallness oi their individual farms,
great quantities are produced, for
great numbers are engaged in farming.
The wheat and barley are sown in
rows and very carefully cultivated.
Consequently it grows luxuriantly, and
is entirely free from other plants. So
of all the fields; they are free from
weeds and thistles. There are no
fences or hedges in the fields, and the
divisions consist of narrow paths.
Tlius you look without obstruction
over many farms at once, and the va
riety of crops, all growing richly and
without weeds, present a very pleasant
picture.
Hogs are selling at $9.25 a hundred
in Chicago—the highest price in twen
ty-two years. This little solitary fat t
should lead oftr farmers to talc ; ,
tir.al view of the situation. 1' 11
