glfa gcratd and ^Uuertisrr. Newnan, Ga., Friday, Septpmbpr21. 1888. AT NIGHT. At set of kijd we felt the'brecth of night Come with the salty scaworsj up the bay; We heard the curlews calling, far away; Wo saw tong lines of foam, and watched the flight Of glittering gulls, and trailing snowy white; The shrouded crane (lew inland; dim and gray The crags rose, as the sun sank with the day. And like a horn the moon hung o’er the height, iHceped in her mists, and haloed in her light. Blurred like a face in oils. or. like some dye. Her beauty stained the canvas of the sky. The winds turned seaward, and the stars were bright. And when the tide went out—as tides must do— Our hearts went with it, and we thought of you —Allan fcjunpsou Botsford In Overland Monthly. Fattening the Goose’s Liver. Little does the over fed sybarite know what cruelty is often practiced so that his dainty palate may be sufficiently tickled. Ilarjier’s Bazar has this to say conccrnin" pate de foie gras: “Every body knows that the pate de foie gras of Strasburg is the best in the world, but very few of us have more than a vague idea of the methods employed for enlarg ing the livers of the geese from which it is made. Now the liver of the goose so ‘trained,’ if we may use the expression, i9 twelve times as large as nature in tended it to be*. In order to obtain this result the unfortunate geese are sub jected to torments unknown evm to the early Christians. The first tiling done is to nail the feet of the geese fast to planks, so that they may not arrest the desired tumefaction of the liver by even the slightest movement. Secondly, their eyes are put out, that no glimpse of the world they have left may disturb them. Finally, they are crammed wjth nuts, a delicacy of which they are extremely fond, but they are not allowed to drink a drop of water, although they suffer such tortures from thirst that they utter piercing cries of agony.”—The Epoch. Laughter Indicative of Character. An authority on laughter 6ays: It has been observed that-laughter is indicative of a particular temper and character, ac cording to the sound of the vowel that prevails in eflehinnation. Persons that laugh in a broad Latin “A” are open hearted, honest people, fond of noisy jo cundity, but perhaps of voluble -mood. Excessive jerking- laughter, however, Is an evidence of vulgarity. Those laugh ing in a dry “A” are respectable, but little expansive, and a hard lot of people. When the Latin “E” prevails there pre vails also a phlegmatic, melancholy tem per. Timorous, unsteady people, also those imbued with malignity, laugh in a kind of swelling “I.” Laughter in “0” is the utterance of proud, bold, impera tive, somewhat bantering people. Be ware of those that laugh in “oo” (u). They are traitors, haters, scomers.—New York Sun. Cramp of the Pianists. Certain functional diseases of the hand and arm have been observed in pianists by Mr. Vivian Poore. This cramp of the pianists he estimates to be eight times as common as the cramp of writers; and he Tinds especially liable to it those who practice with the wrist con tinually held rigid. The symptoms are painful stiffness of the shoulder and of the right arm, less frequently of the left side, cramps of the little finger and of the ring finger, sometimes with trem bling—this distressing condition often persisting after exercise with the keys, and being brought back by the least ex ertion of hand or fingers. Cold, seden tary habits, weakness and predisposition to rheumatism and gout increase the lia bility to it.—Arkansaw Traveler. Following tip Their Patrons. The custom among business firms of following their patrons to different re sorts is gaining rapidly. Dress goods and imported costumes are now exhibited in hotel parlors; embroidery and all devices in fancy work are spread upon hotel tables, and the city dealer in fancy wares has become a dangerous rival to Indians with their stock of gay baskets. It is said that modistes sometimes follow de linquent customers to the resorts on dun ning bent; manicures have become a part of ail fashionable hotels, and others make the most of summer marts, and often gain much profit from their enterprises. —Chicago Herald. Graatnesi Sitting for Its Picture. Almost every photographer’s studio of any importance in the country has, at one time and another, been visited by some notable people, and thero are not a few in the business who can tell very amusing stories about the whims of greatness when it sits for its picture. Politicians and members of the legisla ture are not, as a general thing, hard to please, as they are almost all so used to the proceeding that they grow careless about it, but actors, ministers, literary people and artists are in bad favor with the knights of the camera.—Chicago News. Jovenila Astronomical Lore. A young man home from college, wishing to inspire his little sister with awe for his learning, pointed to a star and said: “Sis, do you see that little luminary? It’s bigger than this whole world!’’ “No, tain’t,” said Sis. “Yes, it is,” declared the young collegian. “Then why don’t it keep off the rain?” was the triumphant rejoinder.—New York Evening World. OBITUARY. Deacon William Amis was born in Clarke county, Ga., June 24th, 1812, and died at his residence in Carroll county, Ga.. August 24th, 1S8S, in the 77th year of his age. He was married to Mrs. Jane Pinson in the year 1834, who passed away after living a faithful, Christain life and be ing a kind wife and loving mother, a few years before him. She was a con sistent and orderly member of the Primitive Baptist church with him. lie joined the church at Big Creek, in Clarke county, on Saturday before the third Sabbath in September, 1831: baptized on the next day by Miller Beldsoe;—moved to Coweta county and became a member at White Oak Grove church, and then Bethel in Meriwether. He was ordained deacon at this church March the Oth, 1855. He sold his lands soon after this and made arrangements to move his family to Texas, being then worth over 840,000. But the war be tween the States then began and he cast ! his lot in Carroll county. He became a j member of County Line church and j afterward was constituted into An-; tioch church, where he lived until his j death, having never had a charge against him during his life among the Baptists. Brother Amis was truly a faithful and orderly Baptist, a good ; and kind husband, loving father to j his children, a good neighbor and fel-: low-citizen. We feel sad when we! contemplate our loss; but we submit to the will of God, believing our loss is his eternal gain. He leaves four daugh ters, one son and many relatives and friends who will miss him in the circles of life. His final course in life was al ways gentle, humble, decent and man ly. His sickness was borne by him without a murmuring word falling from his lips; being ready to go at his Mas- ster’s call. I was often comforted to see his perfect resignation during his sufferings. I was with him three days in meeting one month before his death. lie swayed the meeting, notwith standing his affliction. On Sunday while the congregation were breaking up he said to me, “Oh! how bad I do hate to see those brothers and sisters leave, for I feel this is my last meeting at Anti-, och.” He lived until Friday before his next meeting day and passed calmly away at 0 r. m., being surrounded by his family: Frank his son, Mrs. Brooks and husband, Mrs. Miller, Miss Mary J., Eugene L., his dear children, and sister Brittain, his sister. He was buried in Newnan on Saturday, day of meeting at his church. I feel sure liis spirit rests in heaven, while his body awaits t he resurrection. Weep not, dear child ren, relatives and friends,.but let him sleep sweetly in Jesus until the dead in Christ shall arise. AY. D. Jones. A Busy Mun. Peck’s Sun. A Milwaukee man, while in Chicago recently, sent a bouquet of flowers to relatives in a Wisconsin town, and when he heard from them they had ar rived four days after being shipped, wilted and dead. He was mad, and in talking it over with a railroad man the railroader said: “You must not expect too much of an express agent. Now, that bouquet had to go to Junction, and I know the express agent there. He is depot agent, express agent, keeps a restaurant, is postmaster, acts as a switchman, helps unload freight, checks baggage, keeps a store, works a team on the road, drives passengers to an ad joining town, is sexton in a church, buys country produce, keeps the hay scales, runs the caucuses of both politi cal parties, goes out shooting chickens with hunters, keeps si pool table, has a mill for grinding sorghum cane and runs a hopyard, besides helping his wife run a millinery store. Now a man that has as much business as that ought to be excused for letting a bouquet remain in the express office a week or ten days.” The man who sent the bouquet of flow ers said, come to think of it, they were mighty lucky to get the flowers at all, and he would apologize for any words he might have spoken in the heat of debate. AVhat the country wants is a diversity of industries. A Cleveland lawyer, defending a handsome young lady charged with lar- ! ceny, closed his appeal to the jury thus: I “Gentlemen, you may hang the ocean [ on a grapevine to dry; lasso an ava lanche; pin a napkin to the mouth of a i volcano; skim the clouds from the sky i with a teaspoon; throw salt on the tail ! of the American eagle, whose sleepless ' eye watches over the welfare of the na- i tion; paste‘For rent’ upon the moon | and stars, but never delude yourself ! with the idea that this charming girl i is guilty of the charge preferred against ' her.” The jury acquitted her without retiring from their seats.

A very distinguished prelate of the Episcopal church found himself strand- j ed in a little town away down in the backwoods of Maine last summer, and had to put up at a farm house, where, he was hospitably entertained. "Do. you have many Episcopalians down here?” he inquired of his hostess. | “Well, really now, I don’t know,” she answered; “our hired man shot some sort of a queer creetur down back of the barn the other day, but he ’lowed it was a woodchuck.” Bucklin’s Arnica Salve.

More than half of all deaths occur before six years of age. An army* of innocent, lovely children are sw r ept needlessly away each year. Parents are criminally responsible for this. The death-rate of children in England is less than half this. Acker’s English Baby Soother has done more to bring this about than all other causes com bined. You cannot afford to be with out it.
