Mr. J. E. Maddox killed his

There is being organized in our
toAvii a literary society. The first
meeting Avas held at Mrs. Mc
Knight’s last Friday evening.
The attendance Avas good, and the
interest shown was encouraging.
A temporary organization was
effected, Rev. J. L. Moon being
elected president, Miss Lula Mc¬
Cord secretary and treasurer, and
Mrs. Mamie Shaver critic. Com
mittees Avere appointed to com¬
plete the organization, and to
some Avere assigned literary du¬
ties for next meeting. The next
meeting Avill be at ReA r . J. L.
Moon’s on next Monday evening
the 27th inst. The young people
of our town, and even the older
ones, could not do better than
join this refining society and give
it their hearty support. It is so
much above some other grovelling
amusements that could be thought
of.
Special bargains every day at

MALARIA

sonous germs arising from low,
marshy land, or from decaying
vegetable matter, are breathed
into the lungs, taken up by the
blood, and unless the vital fluid
is purified by the use Sarsaparilla, of a good
medicine like Hood’s
the unfortunate victim is soon
overpowered. Even in the more
advanced cases, where the terri¬

medicine has effected remarkable
cures. Those who are exposed should

Mr. J. J. says he is going to

Mr. T. J. Almand has bought a
farm bell, which has a cord at¬
tached to it that runs to his bed,
so the boys say, that he can ring
up his hands without getting out
of bed. That’s right, Mr. Almand,
there is nothiug like having things

NOTHING LIKE IT.
Our ingenious and famous pat¬
ent man, E. AV. Jeter, has gotten
up a remarkable Cotton Chopper,
since it is simple and cheaply ar¬
ranged.
It works with a cam movement;
and it seems plain from the model
that it will do the Avork which
he claims for it. He claims that
it will ploAv out the middles, leave
the cotton in hills at any distance
desired, thereby enabling one
horse and hand to do the same
work as 5 to 7 hands' and as many
horses could do per day, and do
it better and much more regularly.
Mr. Jeter Avants help to have them
manufactured. AVe have not seen
the model ourselves, but think it
would be worth Avhile for some
manufacturer to look into the
matter.
