1 sympathy with the m-ovement.
Dr. C. P. Williamson who was on the program fora discussion of “The
pork of the Bible Normal” made only a few remarks yielding his time to
lishop Candler in one of his great lectures. Dr. J. W. Oslin presented Bishop
[Candler in an appropriate speech. When Bishop Candler rises to address a
jdamesville audience there is always the most profound attention to what he
ays. When he speaks there is great meaning to his words and those who bear
£hem are entertained and edified. Upon no occasion has he given the people a
etter lecture than at. this time. The audience listened until he closed .and

Experienced Accountant, Court Report

Lee’s Commercial School.
A Special Short-hand and Book
keeping* School will open in the
Dean Building on Mon
day, July 11th.
To the People of Gainesyille:
In this age of industrial and com
mercial life shorthand and book-keep
ing have become a necessity, and all
young men and young ladies who desire
to toil in the fields of business or in
the iines of the profession should, in
their own interest, add a knowledge
of shorthand and book-keeping to their
other qualifications. Every one should
be trained to dexterity in some useful
and productive industry,not solely that
they may follow that pursuit, but that
they might do so in case of failure m
their callings.
In this age shorthand ranks fore
most as a profession. Compared with
the legal profession it is invariably the
case that the fees of the stenographer
equal those of the attorney, and oft-
times exceed them.
In the Benham murder trial, which
has just been Up before the courts, it
is shown by the official report that the
compensation of the stenographer was
more than three times that of the at
torney, the former receiving $1,800, the
latter $500. Also in the famous Borden
murder trial, the stenographers’ fees
amounted to over $1,700. For report
ing the Lexow investigation, which
lasted some six months, the amount
paid as stenographers's fees was $17,-
460.57.
The opportunity is no presented you
to obtain a knowledge of the latest im
proved methods of book-keeping and
shorthand by attending either our day
or night school.
Our course is so arranged that you
may only attend at night and by prop
er application be thoroughly prepared
at the end of the term to keep aDy set
of mercantile, double entry books or
obtain a complete knowledge of short
hand, and be able to write any matter
from dictation.
This vve guarantee to all those who
attend our school regularly and con
scientiously apply themselves. Hun
dreds of - young men and young ladies
have acquired their only knowledge of
these important 'studies by attending
our night school and are now holding
responsible positions as book-keepers
and stenographers. With the ex
perience of the past to aid us, with the
assistance, co-operation and confidence
of an intelligent and progressive peo
ple, with the enthusiasm which accom
panies progress and meritorious work,
we are sure that all who take our
course will be p 1 eased and far better
prepared to fight the battles of life suc
cessfully. Sincerely, Lewis Lee.
Educational Day for children. The
^creises will be free and in charge of

Concord, N. C., July 25, 1897.
To Whom it May Concern:
I attended Prof. Lee’s shorthand
schoolhere.and do not hesitate in saying
his course is the best. I consider Prof.
Lee a teacher who is not excelled in
his prel'ession, his methods of instruc
tion, together with his improved sys
tem, enables Ins pupils t^> obtain a
complete knowledge of shorthand in a
short time. Respectfully,

T. A. Slocum, the Great Chemist and

Three Free Bottles of His Newly
Discovered Remedies to
Cure Consumption and
all Lung Troubles.
Nothing could be fairer, more philan
thropic or carry more joy to the afflict
ed than the generous offer of the hon
ored and distinguished chemist, T. A.
Slocum, M. C., of New York City.
He has discovered a reliable and
absolute cure for consumption and all
bronchial, throat, lung and chest dis
eases, catarrhal affections, general
decline and weakness, loss of flesh and
all conditions of wasting away: and to
make its great merits known, we will
send three free bottles of his newly
discovered remedies to any afflicted
reader of The Georgia Cracker.
Already his “new scientific system of
medicine” has permanently cured
thousands of apparently hopeless cases.
The Doctor considers it not only his
professional, but his religious duty—a
duty which he owes to suffering human
ity—to donate his infalible cure.
He has proved the “dreaded con
sumption” to be a curable disease be
yond a doubt, - m any climate, and has
on file in his American and European
laboratories thousands of “heartfelt
testimonials of gratitude from those
benefited. *
Catarrhal and pulmonary troubles
lead to consumption, and consumption
uninterrupted, means speedy and cer
tain death. Don’t delay until it is too
late. Simply write T. A. Slocum, M.
C.. 98 Pine street, New York, giving ex
press and post-office address, and the
free medicine will be promptly sent.
Please tell the Doctor you saw his offer
