Sharpe Sayings.
Ram, rain* It seems that farm
ers will be delayed in wheat sow
ing, as the unfavorable weather
sets cotton picking behind. I
understand Agnew & Alexander
are calculating on sowiug a good
deal on the Napier place. 1 think
the proapect for having it made
into hrat-class Hour ought to iu
daeo people to sow more wheat
and leas cotton.
1 was at 1). J. Hammond’s mills
Wednesday and saw the first
water turned on the mills. It is
real astonishing to see what man
can do. I am not exaggerating
when I aav I never saw as fine a
machine aa the flour purifier. I
think Mr. Wolf, of Obambersburg,
IV, deserve! muoh credit for its
invention. Old Uncle Mose Boils,
a will cultivated man here, looked
at it and says that it must be a
gift from Pentecost. As to the
flour, 1 know it can’t bo beat, be
cause 1 ate some of the bread for
breakfaat. It does seom like the
Noithern people ore just a little
ahead as us. Thov take pride in
having things w«MI done. Mr.
Ilecfsuidor, the millwright who
has been employed by the Wolf
Mill Co. for fourteen years, cer
tainly knows how to handle tools.
I think he is a clever mau.
The (lection—what about the
election? Who ahull aud who
•liaut? IVhat about cottou? Wib
it go down or will it go up?
That'a about all you cud boar
now. I guess Tuesday will tell
the tah*. 1 know people u a tot
ally waut all they cun get for
what ihoy have to sell, but 1 think
if the people would retrospect
aud o impure tbe prices prior to
t iis year they might take cour
age. fio pay up their arrears to
the Mi->sENGEit, and be glad that
prices are as good as they are.
It leeuis that, tt'l can not see

Now, ou (the ether hand, as to
to the dealer; how does he srb
cotton seed meal und hulls at

year 1 bought them for 90 and 30c
You see , how inconsiderate men
can be. I don’t.say prices have
a ivauocd in propoition, but 1 do
saylhatthe line of despondency
ought m t to hang like a cloud
ova- tbe laud on account of a lit
tle declii o in cotton, knowing
t ial the national election gener

CONFEDERATE REUNION
Augusta, Oa., Nov. 14, 15, 16, 1900.
The re union of the Georgia di
vision of Unit«d Confederate vet
erans is now bat a few days off
and gives promise of unusual iu
terest, because of the fact that the
South Carolina division of Con
federate veterans has been invited
to meet with their Georgia com
rades and from the central loca
tion of Augusta it is in easy reach
of both states.
The arrangement* have been
about complet >d by the various
committees and all who come,
wl ether veteran or not. will be
Assured of a cordial reception,
aud the citizens of Augusta have
determined to make this re-union
occasion a most memorable one
in every respect.
Aside from tbe pleasure of
I meeting again and mingling with
ol 1 comrades and friends, the
veterans will find pleasure iu see
ing the street shows, which will
be put on bv the KlkH lodge, for
the entertainment of all who may
attmd the re-unicn.
Mr. E. B. Pilcher, as chairman
of the bureau of information, has
made every effort possible to se
cure homes for all who come and
lists of boarding places, prices,
eto., will be given out at the gen
eral headquarters, in room No. 3,
Leonard building. A postal sent
to Mr. Pilcher will secure board
in advance for any one who in
tends coming to the re-union.
The services of competent boys
have been secured, who will con
conduct all visitors to hotels and
boarding houses, if such visitors,
upon reaching the city will come
at once to the headquarters in the
Leonard building.
Let all who possibly can come
to August i for tbe re-u Dion and
great Elks’ carnival and spend
from November 12tb to the 17th
in a thorough enjoyment of all of
the good things which have been
prepared for the entei t linment of
the Confederate veterans und
their friendß.
Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by looal applications as they can
not reach the diseased portion ol
the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deaf
ness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect heariug,
aud when it is entirely closed,
deafneess is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be t iken
out aud this tnbo restored to its
uormal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever. Nine cases
out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which ia nothing but an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred
Dollars for any case of Deafness
(caused by catarrh) that can not
he cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure.
