We think every Confederate soldier residing in Rockdale county should take the Confed¬ erate Veteran, published month¬ the ly at Nashville, Tenn. It is 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 week trading •with our mer¬ chants , This is a good sign that our merchants reach out beyond the county lines for trade and get it. If they would use the columns of The Weekly more m teIlin § the l )r0 P lc ' vhat tbe ? have they would get more trade 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.

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 Mr. W. IT.

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 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.
