CONYERS, GEORGIA, TUESDAY, APRIL 9, 1889.
How to choose a Doctor.
Dr. Herbert C. Harris has this
to say in the Medical Age:
“We have read somewhere about
“how to choose a wife.” Some¬
where else “how to buy a horse,”
and somewhere too “how to write
a letter,” or “make a garden,” or
“cure the rot in sheep,”—yes, we
have read “how to get rich,” and
how to do everything under the
sun, except how to choose a doc¬
tor. Since we can not find an ar¬
ticle on bow to choose a doctor,
we will e’en write one. To be a
doctor one must first be a man,
and a mean man cannot be a good
doctor any f more than he can be a
good minister . or a good husband
An<1 a readll y honesfc > lar - e aiul
loving man, cannot make a poor
doctor, no matter wbat liis pet
patliy be. rn lo have good ,
l y may y ^
good sense as a man. If your
doctor lacks sense about other
things, you may be sure that he
does also about medicine and sur
gery. If the doctor’s office be
untidy you may be quite certain
that he will come short of giving
good counsel as to health and
tidiness of body. If be be clumsy
in hitching his horse, you may be
sure that he is not handy at surg¬
ery or midwifery. If he be a
great coarse, blundering fellow—
careless of dress, farmer-looking
man, you may be sure that he will
lack perception of those finer
symptoms by which a good doc¬
tor is guided. If he slanders
brother physicians who profess a
different pathy, you may be sure
that be is himself a quack. Good,
earnest doctors are too busy to
find time to slander their bretli
ren or their rivals. It is the same as
with lawyers, ministers, and
ers. The truly good and truly
ure at do not detract from the
reputation of others, they are gen
erousand magnanimous even to
rivals. If your doctor flatters
you and humors your lusts and
appetites and helps you out of a
bad scrape secretly,' without re
proof, as if you had done no
wron" distrust him. If you can
hnvlmntodo 1 • 1 ?:’ , fra A rt nr o c- say iv what wha lie he
would not do without the line,
beware of him. Good doctois
cannot be bought. Your doctor
ought not to be a single man.
He ouriit to be a married man,
and if you see that his wife respect
him and his children obey him,
that is a very good sign that he
may be trusted. If your doctor
ters you bow to keep well, that is
a good sign. You come to him
with toothache, and he gives you
creasote and clove oil for tbe tooth
and at the same time suggests
that ->'011 do not wash enough to
keep well_that is a good sign.
If the children like him, that is a
o-ood si°m. If you find him read
ing in his office that is a good
sign and especially if he is a set
tied, middle aged man. If he
says, “I once thought so and so,
but I was wrong, it is a good sign.
If tbe doctor is neat and liandy in
rolling pills and folding powdeis,
that is to his credit. If he under
stands how to bud roses, graft
fc* trees, n»x strawberry poHea

VALUE OF COTTON SEED.
There is in a ton of seed 25
pound of lint not taken off by our
common gins worth 5c. per pound.
$1.25: 37 gallons of oil at 45 cents
gallon, $16.95; and 800 pounds
of cake worth $8, making a ton of
seed worth $25.30, showing that
cotton seed are worth 25c. at the
ginnery. The seed of the croj> in
Georgia is therefore worth five
millon dollars on the farm. We
use in Georgia 136 thousand tons
of guano paying one millon dol¬
lars for the ammonia in them
when we have five million dollars
worth of ammonia on the farm in
the cotton seed.
Within 40 miles of Charleston
there’s nothing but phosphate
rock and we have already on our
land the ammonia in the cotton
seed. These combined give us a
good manure, The farmers
should resolve never to sell another
bushel of cotton seed, but press
them for the oil and use them for
guano and keep the immense
profit in their own pockets.

what the bucket contains, then,
replacing the lid, walks compla

It has been stated from a num¬
ber of sources that Rev. Sam W.
Small will probably be a candi¬
date for congress next year from
this district. The republicans
think that he will sweep the dis¬

Small will be remembered on ac¬
count of the agressive campaign
he made for state senator last year
and the people will not elect any
man to office whose aims is to di¬

course in the past has shown a
tendency in this direction. It is

Gen. Bouluuger ig evidently
not of the stuff of which success¬
ful revolutionary leaders arc made.
He is anxious to be dictator of
France, another first consul of
the Bonaparte pattern, but not
anxious enough to put his neck in
serious danger in pursuing his
ambition. The introduction of
the keen point of M. Floquets
rapier among the muscles of that
useful part of his anatomy taught
him that the broad guillotine
blade, if set to work, would be
anything but agreeable. A burn
ed child very wisely dreads the
fire and Gen. Boulanger dreads
cold steel. At the business of
revolution-making, in which he
has been engaged for the last year
or two, makes special demands
in its final developments on the
maker's willingness to risk
neck and ability to handle cold
steel, the general shows himself
peculiarly unfitted for the work
he has undertaken.

Among the political rumors at
Washington is one that the repub¬
lican senators who voted against
the confirmation of Mr. Halstead’s
nomination have been put upon
the black list, and that when they
appear at the white house to mako
recommendations they will bo
coolly received. The President
is reported as saying that these
senators have been guilty of a
breach of party discipline, be¬
cause they understood when he
refused to withdraw Mr. Halstead’s
nomination that he wanted it con¬
firmed.
