On Saturday last a large swarm of
bees took possession of our house,
filling every nook and crauny in the
building. The space between the

ally alive with the busy little tilings.

tle down in one’s house, and we trust

August Flower.
“It is a surprising fact,” says Prof.
Houston, “that in my travels in all
parts of the world, for the last ten
years, I have met more people having
used Green’s August Flower than any
other remedy, for dyspepsia, deranged
liver and stomach, and for constipa
tion. I find for tourists and sales
men, or for persons filling office po
sitions, where headaches and general
bad feeling from irregular habits ex
ist, that Green’s August Flower is a
grand remedy. It does not injure the
system by frequent use, and is excel
lent for sour stomachs and indiges
tion.” Sample bottles free at Brad
ley’s Drug Store, Newnan, Ga., aud
Clower’s Drup Store, Grantville, Ga.
Sold by deaierBin all civilized coun
tries.
—It seems that some party or par
ties are going too far with their dispo
sition to run negroes out of the coun
ty. We have beard of a great many
notices being given in the last few
weeks, demoralizing renters and
causing landlords to lose considerable
on what they have furnished them. It
is the wrong time of year now to be
runnipg them off; in fact, we are not
in favor of running them off at all.

go beyond the bon nds of reason in
this matter. Our fellow-man has too
much at stake.—[Fairburn News.

Many Have Shown Their
Appreciation
Of the numberless specials we spoke of last week by giving us their patronage. Many new as
well as familiar faces have been seen in our store, and if rich bargains, accompanied with
courteous treatment, weigh with you for mutual benefit, you are ours for all time to come. To
those who have never dealt with us, we ask that you give us a trial, feeling confident that we
will merit your patronage.
This week we will devote our space to our Groceries; but don’t think, on account of
this, that we will discontinue our dry goods slaughter. We have added largely to our line, and
you will find the same seasonable specialties we mentioned last week.
IN COFFEE—You will find thirteen different varieties to select from, with prices from
50c. per pound down. We will mention only three of the above—
The 15c. kind; good, sound green Coffee, 10c. per pound, or 1 1 lbs. for $1.
Our famous "J. K., No. 2;” every grain pure, and uniform in'size, which we have han
dled exclusively for 20 years ; we offer now 6 lbs. for $1.
A special Java and Mocha, put up neatly in the original 2-lb. cans; really worth 33c.;
we offer it at 40c. per can, or 20c. per pound.
Nothing is more harmful or debilitating than a cup of coffee made from damaged coffee,
and nothing is so pleasing and invigorating as a good cup of breakfast coffee.
We always carry an assortment of staple canned goods, such as Corn, Tomatoes, Sal
mon, Sardines, etc.
IN SUGAR.—We handle only the product of the old refineries. Their granulated Su
gar is whiter and finer than that of any other refinery.
For Iced Tea or Hot Tea we can suit you. We can furnish you special Chinese,
India or Ceylon Teas for only 50c. per pound.
We are wholesale jobbers in Soap, and, representing some of the largest manufacturers,
we are always on the ground floor with the wholesale as well as the retail trade.
Our Heavy Grocery room is unusually full, and you will always find it to your interest
to examine and price the indispensable necessities of this department. You can find Hay,
Corn, Oats, (white, chipped or sifted,) Bran, Feed and Shipped Stuff, Corn Hearts, Meal, Flour,
Syrup, Vinegar, Bacon, Hams, Lard in bulk or 10 and 20 pound buckets.
In conclusion we desire to add a word about our Buggies. They are made by the
oldest and most leliable manufacturers, and each Buggy is sold on a positive guarantee. H
you want a Buggy, or set of single or double Harness, come to see us and you will carry it
home.
