A Horrible Hold-Up.
“About ten years ago my brother
was ‘held up’ in his work, health and
happiness by what was believed to he
hopeless Consumption," writes W. R.
Lipscomb, of Washington, N. C. “He
took all kinds of remedies and treat
ment from several doctors, but found
no help till he used Dr. King’s New
Discovery and was wholly cured by six
bottles. He is a well man to-day.”
It’s quick to relieve and the surest cure
for weak or sore lungs, hemorrhages,
coughs and colds, bronchitis, La Grippe,
asthma and all bronchial atfections.

TURIN.
The writer met with the church at
Pleasant Hill last Sunday, but owing
to the inclement weather the attend
ance was small.
Miss Hubbard, of Newnan, has been
chosen principal of the school at Farm-
dale, and we bespeak for her a liberal
patronage, as there are a number of
children of school age in that communi
ty.
Many people have changed homes
since winter opened. This unrest
seems to prevail throughout the coun
try, and is confined to no particular
class or section.
From some cause or other there is a
destitution of supplies among many
families, and they will be forced to live
mainly on credit the present year.
While upon this subject will it he re
garded as an impertinence or as out of
j place for us to make a suggestion?
Those who sell supplies on time could
make the burden of debt lighter upon
these poor people by charging a more
reasonable profit upon the few necessi
ties that they are compelled to have to
make a crop. For example, corn is now
selling at 75c. cash, but the time price
(for a few months’ time) is $1.25 per
bushel. This is more than the poor far
mer can pay and come out even at the
efcd of the year. Be merciful to the
poor, and the Lord will bless you.

he can never remember whether his

or the amount of his coal bill.
