One. of the most interesting books

book will commend it to everyone.
Hon. W. H. Daniel is a candidate for
Representative in Heard county, with

in the last Legislature, and is seeking
indorsement at the hands of the peo

carried enough backsheesh along to
command the respect, and excite the
cupidity of any Gothamite with whom
he may come in. con tact, and is deter
mined to put it out only where he can
get the best goods. Being fortified with
cash, he will confine himself to no one
house in making his purchases, but will
trade where he can get the best bar
gains in everything. He will bring back
the largest and best selected stock of
dry goods and fine dress goods that he
has yet carried, and asks his lady cus
tomers to wait until his stock arrives
before casting about for their fall pur
chases. If he can’t please them, both
as to the style, quality and price of his
goods, he will quit business and go back
to the country.
An Enjoyable Affair.
On Friday evening last Miss Helen
Lang entertained a number .of her
young friends at a sociable and supper;
and those who were so fortunate as to
be present speak of it as a Very delight
ful affair. Miss Helen is a very agree
able entertainer at all times, but her
well-known social accomplishments
were never exercised more pleasingly or
successfully than upon the occasion re

seasonal delicacies suited to a summer

Towna-Hunterr.
“Wedding bells, wedding bells! Hear their
soft chime—
With the happy summer day, how they mu-
ically royme!”
The prophecy of Madame Rumor,
“There will be a wedding at White
Oak soon,” was fulfilled Thursday eve
ning, July 26th; for on that evening, at
the residence of the bride’s father. Cap
tain J. D. Hunter, Rev. JLB. Hnnnicutt
officiating, Mr. J. B. Towns, of San
ford, Fla., was united in marriage to
Miss Emma Hunter, of White Oak.
Mr. Towns is a young man of charm
ing manners and gentlemanly bearing,
possessing excellent business qualifica
tions.
Miss Emma is a fair type of the
Southern woman, being endowed with
the rarest qualities. She possesses one
of the sweetest and loveliest disposi
tions. She has a large,, well-selected
circle of associates, and is much ad
mired by all. Success and long life to
the handsome groom and his beautiful
young bride.
After congratulations were extended
to the happy pair, waiters went the
round among the guests, laden with
delicacies that would tempt the dainti
est epicure.
Then came the invitation to the
“surprise barbecue” which had been
prepared in the beautiful grove adjoin
ing the yard. No mind save Captain
Hunter’s could have suggested so novel
an entertainment for the occasion or
one that could have been so much en
joyed by old and young. Beneath the
spreading branches of the noble oaks
many a gallant questioned, “Who
next?” (For the reply of one fair lassie
go to Mr. Ed Leach.) A threatening
cloud drove the joyous party from be
neath the canopy of leaves to the par
lor again, where each breathed that
sad, sweet word, “Good-bye.” Once
more, we extendi our congratulations to
the happy couple.
Below is a partial list of the many
handsome presents:

New York, March 10,’ 1886. y
It gives me great pleasure to add my
testimony in favor of Allcock’s Po
rous Plasters. Last Oetober I had a
severe attack of Jlumbago 3nd suffered
Hntold agony; could|not turn in bed or
get in any position without assistance,,
and with pains almost unbearable; the
folks suggested Allcock’S Porous
Plasters. As soon as possible I had
one applied to the small; of my back,
and to my great surprise Iff experienced
almost instant relief,• I continued wear
ing it until entirely cured..and am hap
py to say that I have not bad the slight
est symptoms of Lumbago since. They
are a wonderful and valuable Plaster
for Lumbago, and I take much pleas
ure in recommending them.
