We think every Confederate
soldier residing in Rockdale
county should take the Confed¬
erate Veteran, published month¬ the

best magazine of its kind in all
this country aud the
tion price is only $3. The Vet¬
eran and The Weekly one year
for $3.75.
Large crowds from the Grand
Army and Confederate Veterans
are expected, in Atlanta on Blue
and Grav dav, which is today.
Notice has been sent out through
the AssociatedPrcss and by Com¬
mander in Chief Lawler, of the
Grand Army, and Gdn John B,
Jordon, Commander in Chief of
heUuited Confederate'Veterans.
Mrs. Whitley and daughter, of
Lithonia, were in the city last

Judge Helms publishes this
week the apportionment of
ty taxes for various purposes
58 cents on the 300 dollars will
be the county tax .which we sup¬
pose is very small, yet this with
the State tax added, and in the
city,is to be added the school tax,
which will make it heavy upon
the town people. Let us hope,
however, that the increase of
business and the advantages ac¬
cruing will make the “burden
light and the yoke easy.’’
While in Mr. Kuhns’ photo
K ra P h S aller Y a few da Y a S° we
noticed a picture of three small
negroes seated on a log near a
fence, each contentedly munch¬
ing on a stalk of ribbon cane.
The picture is very life like, and
Mr. Kuhns informed us that he
recently received an order for
1,000 from a Northern gentle
man. Mr. Kuhns has several
pictures of the Southern darkey
and has added to the collection
since be has been in our city.
He expects to sell a large mini
ber of these pictures to the North
era visitors at the Exposition

Third Vico President of the

circular directing that employees
of the Southern Railway who
have been in its service for a pe¬
riod of one year or more, shall
be given leaves of absence and
passes to Atlanta and return for
themselves, their wives and de¬
pendent children.
This is a good example, and will
probably be followed by other
railroads.

“Be regular and punctual in |
all things” was one of the old
maxims, taught long ago. The
last is not forgotten, but the first
is scarce remembered, so irreg¬
ular is the life of most people
nowadays. The only corrector
of this evil is Simmons Liver I
Regulator, which keeps the liv¬
er active and prevents the ills of
irregular living : Dyspepsia Bil
iousness, Constipation, etc. It al
these troubles. i
HOME SEEKING.
Mr. E. T. Langley, of South
Dakota, was in Conyers several
days the past week in the inter
est of the Southern Bureau < f
Immigration, located at
nooga, Tenn. He organized an
agency here, which will adver¬
tise the town and county through
the columns of the Bureau’s of¬
ficial organ, which
largely in the North and North
west. This is a line
ty for persons having lands or
real estate for sale to see those
who will be sent to look out for
places to settle. A large number
of people troin the nonhem sec
lions are seeking homes and ill
vestments in the South, and it
is the proper thing for our peo¬
ple to let them know whore lands
can be bought at cheap prices—
lands productive and suited to
the cultivation of everything rc
by man and beast. The
people of Rockdale will give lion
est, enterprising business men,
farmers and mechanics a hearty
welcome.
CHEAP RATES TO THE EXPO¬
SITION.
I will run a pleasant, easy rid¬
ing hack to connect with the
electric cars at Decatur for the
Exposition, leaving nere early
in the morning and returning in
the evening. My rates will be
cheaper than the railroad and
more pleasant, avoiding all the
rush and inconvenience to be
met with lay going on the train.
Good top and curtains to give
perfect protection from the
weather—sun or rain.

The Shakers have made a dis¬
covery which is destined to ac¬
complish much good. Realizing
that three fourths of all our suf¬
ferings arise from stomach trou¬
bles, that the country is literally
filled with people who cannot
eat and digest food, without
subsequently suffering pain and
distress, and that many are
starving, wasting to mere skele
tons, because their food does
them no good, they have devo¬
ted much study and thought to
the subject, and the result is this
discovery of their Digestive Cor¬
dial. A little book can be ob
tained from your druggist that
will point out the way of relief
at once. An investigation will
cost nothing aud will result in
much good.

BkREGULATO
Are you taking Simmons Liver Reg¬
ulator, the “King op Liver Medi
cines?” That is what our readers
"oM ^
pinned their faith and were never dis
pointed. But another good recom¬
mendation for it is, that it is BETTES
than Pills, never gripes, never weak¬
ens, but works in such an easy and
natural way, just like nature itself, that
relief comes quick and sure, and one
feels new all over. It never fails.
Everybody needs take a liver remedy,
and everyone should take only Sim¬
mons Liver Regulator.
Be sure you get it. The Bed Z
is on the wrapper. J. H. Zeiliu &
