In Feeble Health
Unable to do Her Work — Nervous
and Tired—All These Troubles
Cured by Hood's Sarsaparilla. *
“ For the past four years I have been in
feeble health, and for two years past,
owing to change of climate, I have not
been able to do my work. I was nervous
and had a tired feeling and was under the
treatment of physicians, but I continually
grew worse. My husband insisted on my
trying Hood’s Sarsaparilla and I finally
consented, and began taking it the first of
June, 1896. The first bottle did me so
much good that I continued with it, and
after taking four bottles and one bottle of
Hood’s Pills I am able to do my work,
and the tired, nervous feeling is entirely
cured/' Mbs. 6. N. Hosea, Suwanee, Ga.

POSTMASTER FARROW.
Was Appointed Several Days Ago
Will Take Charge February
First.
Col. Henry P. Farrow has been nom
inated by the President to be post
master at Gainesville. The nomination
will perhaps be confirmed in a few
days by the senate, as it is not believed
that there will be any further fight on
the Colonel.
The appointment came as a surprise
to Colonel Farrow as he had not ex
peeted it until next week, or later. He
has all along felt satisfied that he
would be appointed, but he thought it
would be several days before the nom
ination would be sent to the senate
The appointment was even made be
fore Col. Walter Johnson, who had
gone to look after it, together with
several other matters, reached Wash
ington.
The city republican executive com
mittee was in session at the time Col
Farrow was notified by wire of his
appointment, and resolutions were at
once adopted thanking those” who had
stood up to the Colonel in his fight
and condemning those who had op
posed him.
Colonel Farrow does not know when
he will take charge of the office here
but he does not think he will go in be
fore the first of February. His ap
pointment must be confirmed, his bond
signed and approved, and his commis
sion forwarded, which will perhaps
take until the first of next month.
Judge Winburn will then retire, after
a successful term as postmaster.

The Journal Views It.
The Atlanta .Journal of Monday has
tlie following to say of the contest now
on in this district: Hon. Howard
Thompson, of Gainesville, has an
nounced his candidacy for congress
from the Ninth district and challenged
Congressman Tate to a series of joint?
debates. Mr. Thompson has been a
solicitor general for eleven years and a
good one, and would no doubt make a
good congressman. Representative
Tate has been a useful member of con
gress and is deservedly strong in his
district. The prospects, therefore, for
an interesting eontest in the Ninth were
never better.
