THE MAIDEN AND THE COW.
She Raises Her Umbrella and Tries to Ap'

Did you ever see a girl meet a cow on
the high way—a real "roly- polv" girl, who
scents danger from afar? Wo did the
other day. The cow had a bell on her neck
and twelve wrinkles on her horns. She
was complacently chewing the cad of con
tentment ’nenth the shade of a spreading
tree, ever and anon lastly switching at a
troublesome fly; with eyes half closed,
the cow was dreaming, and knew
not that theio was a girl on
earth. The girl timidly ap
proached, she would advance a step and
recede a yard; Impatient ltd proceed, she
finally musrera up autlicient courage to
stanm her pretty foot and yell out, “go
away from there, madam 1” The cow
moved not, indcci, aha treated the request
with sUanCbontempt. Wringing her hands,
the fair ma 1 den cried aloud: “Oh, me!

never struck one a blow in anger.
When a child does wrong she keeps a
bottle of castor oil and rhubarb on the

to take a dose of the mixture.
Died In His Orchard.
Last Friday after dinner, Mr. Smith
Hulsey, who lives in the Ball Ground
district of Murray county, gathered a
basket of peaches and went out to feed
his hogs. He did not return in an hour
or two and some one went ont to see
what had become of him, and found
him lying in a fence corner dead. He
was about twenty-five years old, and
when be left the house was in fine
health, and had just eaten a hearty
dinner.—Calhoun Times.
Capture of a Wild Cat.
Mr. C. P. Brown captured, a huge
wild cat on Tuesday evening last on
the plantation of Jlr. 0. 0. Spence, in
Houston county. His dog struck the
trail about 0 o’clock, and an excitini
chase ensued, which lasted until 1
o’clock. There were nine hoonds in
the chase, and four of them were fear
fully lacerated by the infurated beast,
which fought like a tiger until life was
extinct.—Hawkinsville Dispatch.
Seven Bales on Eight Acres.
Mr. W. R. Davis, of Colloden,
came to town yesterday with seven
bales of cotton which he picked oiT of
eight acres cf land by the 15th inst
Such a result we dare say was never
before accomplished by any one.
And more than this Mr. Davis is satis
fied that he will get at least six or
seven more bales from the same
ground. He has raised during the
past three years thirteen colts, and haa

Why the Fight Did Not Coma Oft.
There was a disappointed crowd who
went to witness the pitched battle on
last Sunday, August 30th, between
Mr. Darling Dowling, Jr., and Mr.
Arch Crews, of Pierce county. Dow
ling killed Crews’ dog about twelve
months ago, and in order to settle tho
matter they agreed to meet end have a
regular knock down and drag out. The
principals met at the place agreed up
on with many of their friends, who ex
pected to see a real genuine, down-the-
country, back woods fight. But, much
to their disappointment, the principals
settled the matter satisfactorily with
themselves by Mr. Crews backing ont
with the lame exense of having tho
toothache.—Waycroas Headlight.
Smith'. Suicidal Surer.
Mr. AY. O. Smith, a good citizen of
Thomaston, came near terminating his
life. Ho had been on a spree all tho
week and went home Saturday night
so inebriated that lie knew not what he
was doing. He discovered a vial of
laudanum on the mantle and turned it
np to drink. Mrs. Smith, who gave
birth to a child on Monday, sprang
out of the bed and knocked the vial
from his mouth, thus preventing his
drinking more than probably two
ounces of the deadly drug and
saving bis life. As aoon
r isible the physicians reached him,
a number of gentlemen walked
him and worked with him nearly all
night to save bis life, which they suc
ceeded in doing. At one time he was
given up and laid out, but the persist'
once of Dr. Suggs revived him and he
yet lives.—Barnesville Gazette.

Our Alban? Correspondent.
For some time the good people of Al
bany have used every means of dis
covering the identity of our correspon
dent at that place. At first they went to
icssing and guessed everybody from
tan Jones to Gen. Morgan. Then
they settled upon an old man witli
flowing white beard. Then they spot
ted Jake Ventuellett, but it seems now
they have arrived at the conclusion
that the correspondent is a woman.
To support this last claim the Mews
id Advertiser reproduces our corre
spondent’s item of the druggist’s mis
take in sending alum for borax to a
C og lady who wished to bathe her
gs, and says:
“We have suspected for several
weeks past that the Albany correspon
dent of tho Macon Tkleobafii, who
works altogether on the quiet, ia a
woman, and tho following from that
paper of yesterday is a dead “give
away.’’ Don’t you know that druggist
wouldn’t have told on himself, and
that nobody but another woman would
have found that out about how the

Macon, Ga., July 14, 1881.—I take
pleasure in adding my testimonial to
the superior excellence of your Hora-
lord’s Bread Preparation (Baking Pow
der) as an article healthful and nutri
tious. So long aa superfine wheaten
flour is made use of lor bread-making,
so long will there be a necessity for re
storing to such flour the nutritive ele
ments of which it is deprived by the
refining process; and, so far as I am
aware, this is the only Baking Powder
in the market that possesses tbat qual
ity; while in giving lightness and
porosity to tbe bread, whether made ol
superfine or nnbolted (Graham) floor,
there is none better.
