CONYERS, GA., SATURDAY, OCT. 19 1895.
The Fruit Groweis’
tion will meet in Atlanta oa the
12th of Novombel , We arehe
quested to state to the fruit
growers and any who feel an
interest in the subject in Rock
dale, that they are specially in¬
vited to attend. The convention
wants your experience and ad¬
vice as to the best methods of

Dr. W. H. Lee is an old citi
zea of Conyers and has been in
the drug business for thirty or
0I ^Y years. He is well estate
fished in the business—he is fix
ed, all( l this means that he is
immovable. He has the trade
of the people in his line and his
patrons will still visit his store
for their drugs and other articles
usually kept by a first class drug
store.
Prof. Harris, of Emory college,
preached in the Methodist
church last Sunday morning and
night. The two sermons were
g jod; the one at night especial¬
ly so. The subject at night was,
“The soul that siuneth. it shall
die.” We cannot enter into an
analysis of the discourse, but
will say that the arguments and
original manner in which
the subject was handled showed
study and thought, embellished
in beautiful, chaste language,
which made the sermon from
beginning to end eloquent, for
it is not oratorical display that
makes eloquence, but the
thoughts of a discourse well ex¬
pressed. The conclusion was
appropriate, showing that God
has not seen fit to interfere with
any of His fixed laws except in
the single case of man, where
He interposes His son for the sal¬
vation of men.

weeks we hope all subscribers
who owe us will step in and set

summer have been tight in mon¬
ey matters and we have not ask¬
ed pay, but cotton is selling at
a good price and we trust all will
help us now. It will take but
a small amount from each one,
but in the aggregate it will be
much to us. We want those who
do not take The W eekly to sub¬
scribe at ouce.
No people suffer so much from
physical disabilities as those
whose business requires little or
no muscular exertion. The lack
of exercise causes the liver to be¬
come sluggish and the result is
constant Constipation, Indiges¬
tion, Biliousness and Sick Head
ache. To prevent this take Sim¬
mons Liver Regulator; it keeps
thh liver active and prevents the
ills of irregular living: Dys¬
pepsia, Biliousness and Consti¬
pation, etc.

^REGULATOR Jl
fp
Are you taking Simmons Liver Reg
itlator, the “King of Liver Medi¬
cines?” That i8 what our readers
want, and nothing but that. It is the
same old friend to which the old folks
pinned their faith and were never dis¬
appointed. But another good recom¬
mendation for it is, that it is better
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 Red Z
is on the wrapper. J. H. Zeiliu &
