The Attractions to be Seen at the Com ing Piedmont Fair. The Piedmont Exposition opens in Atlanta October lOtli, closing October 22d. What will you see there ? 1. An exposition •covering eight acres of solid exhibits of every article from a candy stick to a steam engine— the latest wonders of science in every department. A day in these buildings is a liberal education. 2. A building devoted to cattle, 600 feet by 100; a building devoted to poul try, 200 by 200 ; 300 stables for horses; swine, goats, sheep etc., in abundance. 3. The collective county exhibits of a dozen counties, showing the resources of each county in agricultural and in dustrial products, ladies’ handiwork, live stock and everything raised in the county. 4. The richest epitome of the South’s riches ever shown in collective exhibits from the cities of Birmingham, Annis ton, Decatur, Tuscaloosa, Gadsden, Borne and Tallapoosa. The Richmond and Danville Railroad, the Marietta and North Georgia Railroad, the East Tennessee road and the Florida South ern road. Each of these collective ex hibits will cost thousands of dollars, and vou will see the grandest show of Southern riches ever made. 5. An art gallery with 400 pictures from the best living artists, and thirty paintings from Mr. George I. Seney’s gallery, which ranks with Vanderbilt’s. One of these pictures cost $40,000 (forty thousand dollars,) and the thirty cost over a quarter of a million dollars. (!. President Cleveland rind his wife —President Cleveland will make a speech one day—watch the sham battle and review the troops next day. and he and his wife will be ready to shake hands with you all the time. Don’t miss or let your children miss seeing the first Democratic President ever South and his beautiful and clever wife. They will always remember hav ing shaken hands with these great peo ple. 7. A magnificent sham battle cov ering 75 acres, with four batteries of artillery, ten companies of cavalry and 5,000 infantry. The President and his wife will watch the battle, which lasts two hours, and he will then review the troops and hold a public reception, 8. A torchlight procession with 10,- 000 young Democrats in line, the city illuminated, and the very skies lit with the splendor of the scene. This will he t he sight of a life-time. 0. The grandest firework displays ever given in America. One feature will be a living wall of fire 140 feet long, 40 feet high, roaring and spark ling like Niagara. You have never dreamed of anything so gorgeous. The pictures of President and Mrs. Cleve land will he shown in fire in mid air, surrounded by thousands of rockets. 10. The illumination of Kennesaw mountain. The whole mountain stands out like a picture in red light, cannon boom on its side, and 5,000 rockets are fired by electric match from its center. Pictures of General Johnston and General Sherman will be displayed in fire against the skies. Such a spec tacle as this illuminated mountain has never been seen. 11. Bicycle races, on which a man can beat horses running. Balloon as censions, in which you can go 1,000 feet up in a balloon and be landed back safely. 12. ' Horseraces every day, bringing horses from all-sections of the country. 13. Governor Fitzhugli Ijge, of Vir ginia; Governor Richardson, of South Carolina; Governor Bob Taylor, of Tennessee: Governor Seay, of Alabama; Governor Perry, of Florida; Governor Gordon, of Georgia; each with his mili tary staff of forty mounted men. 14. The city of Atlanta, the best city in the Soiith, full of sights of spe cial and historic interest. 15. A vast number of amusements and sight s which we cannot enumerate. Everything, from the old-fashioned circus to a flying .Tennv. A solid two weeks of instruction and amusement. Now, what does it cost ? 1. The railroad fare is lower than ever before. From no point is ir more than one-third the regular rate. It is one cent a mile each Way, and from some points even less than that. It your railroad station ;s a hundred and fifty miles from Atlanta ; he tare cannot lie more than three dollars for the round trip, and in iv be less. 2. It costs you only fifty-cents to see everything on the exposition grounds -—twenty-five cents for children. 1 ms includes* seeing the tire-works, the ^ loon ascensions, the shciu battle, hom ing the President speak, shaking ha' ; S with him. the races, and everything'' the grounds. Vou .can stay on the grounds all day long, it you- want to. even until 10 o’clock at night, wh* the fire works will he dosed. It costs you only fifty cents for the day and inght, and your children twenty-five will find a number of places where they can be protected without any charge. In short, it has been the aim of the committee to make this a cheap ex position, so that all the people could come. They have guarded everywhere against extortion. They have got the railroads down to the lowest point ever known. A good meal for fifty cents, including six or eight dishes, besides a dessert, is very low, while ten or fifteen cents will buy sandwiches and coffee and milk enough for a meal. Detec tives have been employed to protect visitors against any sort of swindling. There will be a full police force on the grounds day and night, and the exposi tion will have several offices open all the time for information and the com fort of visitors. Give Them a Chance. That is to say, your lungs. Also all your breathing machinery. Vorv won derful machinery it is. Not only the larger air-passages, but the thousands of little tubes and cavities leading from them. When these are clogged and choked with matter which ought not to be there, your lungs cannot half do their work. And what they do, they cannot do well. Call it cold, cough, croup, pneumonia, catarrh, consumption or any of the fam ily of throat and nose and head and lung obstructions, all are bad. All ought to he got rid of. There is just one sure way to get rid of them. That is to take Boschee’s German Syrup, which any druggist will sell you at 75 cents a bottle. Even if everything else has failed, you may depend upon this for certain. . MOUNT’S EMPIRE STORE. (On Greenville street, next door to Dr. Reese’s Drug Store,) Originator of Rock Bottom Prices in Kewnan, Georgia. THE GRANDEST DISPLAY I AM VERY BUSY! But will stop long enough to give a few pointers on DRY GOOD8, SHOES AND CLOTHING—not many—just enough to worry the boys and set the pub lic to thinking. Some of my remarks may fall with a dull,, sickening thud upon the ear of my competitors; out I have abandoned all hope of getting rich m one brief season, and am determined to put my goods down and be content hereafter with a reasonable profit instead of trying to “make it all’ between September and May. I therefore respectfully submit the following for the consideration of the public, which I trust will be accepted as evidence of the reforms I have resolved upon: ' CLOTHING I In this department I have an elegant line of Light-Weight Overcoats, rang ing in price from $12 to $15. Splendid Heavy Overcoats, from $4 to $18. Good serviceable Suits, late style, $5 to $10. Excellent all-wool Cassimere, Scotch fcnd Worsted Suits, both business and dress, $10 to $20.

MOUNT ransacked the Northern and Eastern Markets in the selection of this stock, and never before has he met with such marvelous success. This trip North will long be held in memory by the people of Coweta and adjacent counties ; for he has thereby secured for them bargains in every department—truly bargains—that will open the eyes of the trading public. To describe the many novelties, the endless variety, the immensity of his stock, and the many BARGAINS he is offering, would oniy result in a faint ef fort. Nothing short of a thorough examination of his STOCK AND PRICES can give a proper knowledge of J. B. MOUNT’S BUSINESS! for which purpose he takes pleasure in extending a hearty invitation to one and all. Many competitors would cause the Trade to believe that every man blows his own horn !—in answer to which J. B. MOUNT reminds the public of the crowds he has blown together in the past three years, during which time he has distrib uted his BARGAINS over this and adjoining counties. Such “blowing” the North Georgia people have, and always will, appreciate. J. B. Mount guarantees to beat prices from io to 25c. per cent. J. B. Mount guarantees the largest variety. J. B.

Every merchant will claim, and justly too, that there is a considerable advance in prices in the Dry Goods line this season ; but J. B. MOUNT contracted for the principal part ot‘ his stock in time to save the 15 per cent, advance on his Jeans, Cassimeres, Prints, Bleached and Unbleached Domestics, etc., and is pre pared to offer you immense advantages.
