Makis mo Mistakb.— lf you have made up your mind to buy Hood’s Sarsaparilla do not be induced to try any other. Hood’s Sarsa parilla is a peculiar medicine, possessing, by virtue of its peculiar combination, proportion and preparation, curative power superior to anv other article of the kind before the peo pie. For all affections arising from impure blood or low state of the system it is une qualled. Be sure to get Hood’s. Pimples, Sores, Aches and Pains. When a hundred bottles of sarsaparilla or hther pretentious specific’s fail to eradicate in oorn scrofula or contagious blood poison, remember that B. B. B. (Botanic Rlood Balm) has gained many thousand victories, in as many seemingly incurable instances. Send to the Blood Balm Co., Atlanta, Ga., for “Book ot Wonders,” and be convinced. It is the only THUE BLOOD PURIFIBR. G. W. Messer, Howell’s X Roads, Ga., writes “I was afflicted nine years with sores. All the medicine I could take did me no good. I then tried B. B. 8., and 8 bottles cured me sound.” Mrs.S. M. Wilson, Round Mountain, Texas, writes: “A. lady friend of mine was troubled with bumps and pimples on her face and neck She took three bottles of B. B. 8., and her skin got soft and smooth, pimples disappeared, and her health improved greatly.” Jas. L. Bosworth, Atlanta, Ga., writes . “Some years ago I contracted blood poison. 1 bad no appetite, my digestion was ruined, rheumatism drew up my limbs so I could hard ly Walk, my throat was cauterized five times. Bet Springs gave me no benefit, and my life was one of torture until I gave B. B. B. a trial, and, surprieing as it may seem, tbe use of five bottles cured me.” PERILOUS PREDICTIONS. Rev. Irl R. Hicks, the successful weather prophet of St. Louis, is on band with some rather gloomy fore boding for February. He has hith« erto been very accurate in his fore casts, and there is no reason to sus pect him now. Hear him: “The last day or January is one on which, reactionary disturbances are likely to occur, which may run into the first and second days of February. From the 4th to 10th is the first regular period of the month. If the period is proceeded by and entered with bright days and warm, southerly winds there will be violent phenomena about the 6th, 7th and Bth, followed by snow and cold from the northwest. Safest to be prepar ed. It will be best to count on storm disturbances of a secondary . character on the 12th and 13th. From about the 15th or 26th storm r developments of much energy will begia to show to the west, during the progress of which warm, electric, equatorial currents will encounter currents from polar regious, at first developing storms of tropical ener gy, with possible cyclones, winding up with a general cold wave, sweep ing for to the southward. The per iod is from the 15th to 21st. The days of greatest activity and danger will be about the 17th, 18th and 19th The cold wave will succeed these dales. The disturbing causes out side the regular periods will be Mer cury on tbe 26t'u,’ excited by the growing vernal equinox. Under this combination storms and unsets tied disagreeable weather will most likely begin about the 23rd or 24th and run into the next period in the first days of March. PRAYER MEETINGS. \ > Dear Chronicle:- Inconsequence of the inclemency of the weatller, we held no prayer meeting last Satur day night, but will begin where we r left off, at Mrs. Seagraves, east ot the heap cut on Cemetery street on . Saturday night, should the weather permit, and on Sunday at 2:30 p m.. B meeting will be held at the aptist church, and we ear neatly invite our up town friends to We had a pleasant meeting last Sojiday evening,, and if we do our duty we irusl work. The re- F"-suits are generally in the ratio f work. We muat.bot leave tin : all to G ul. Paul Hot forsake the assembling of cur-1 I selves together, and the more ‘ and more, as we see the day ap proaching.” I see the day ap proaching when in the course of human events, the soul which in habits this tenement of clay must make its exit into “the beyond,” and what I do, I must'do it quickly, that I may be prepared for a higher sphere of life, one which requires thorough preparation, for at the last moment of this life, if the wedding garment be wanting, all our labor is lost, and the annunciation of “bind him hand and foot” will certainly fill our souls with the wretchedness. Let us do our duty and leave the rest to God. Truly Thine, Peter Culp. Jan. 30, 1889. MISS PERT TRIPS OVER HER TONGUE. Last week I saw an incident that forcibly illustrated a growing tend' ency of “our girls.” Au old lady, but a portly one, heavily tilled, came into a street car and sat a huge, well'filled basket down. It chanced to intrude on the toes of a superbly dressed young woman opposite. She immediately, was indignant. She abused market baskets roundly and then abused the people who carried them. Then she allowed the opinion toescape that people who carried baskets had no business to ride on street cais. Some car should be re served, she said, for genteel folks. The girl mortified everybody. The veiled lady said not a word until both motioned the driver and the car slopped. “Hold on! Take that pail” said the elder lady. Her tormentor looked a moment in astonishment. “Take that pail, Martha, and carry it home. This basket is all I can manage,” repeated the elder. “Why did’t you tell me who you were mother?” Asked the crest fallen girl, as she picked up the pail and went out. i » i —i Two large plantations, for rer.t—both convenient to market.
