fr GREAT REDUCTION SALE TILL JAN. 1ST, 1898. In order to make a statemet of our business on January 1st, 1898 f we have decided to reduce our large stock. It is easier to count dollars than gooi Is, and for this reason we will sell tor cash low er than the lowest from now until January 1st. We carry large and select lines in the general mer¬ cantile business and you can save money on every purchase you make of us as above stated. i hir business Will continue the same as heretofore. YY e are only preparing to make a statement in order that we may begin the NEW YEAR with a full knowledge of our business Conyers, Ga. D. M. ALMAND & SONS W John Ruskin says. In gener ' i | no patience with peo a i i;i \ e pi who talk about the ‘thought Jessness of youth’ indulgently; 1 had infintely rather hear ol though.tless old age and of the indulgence due to that.” When a, man lias done Ins life work, and nothing can be materially altered in his fate, let him for ge this toil and jest if he will, but what excuse can you find it r wilfulness of thought at tin very time when every crisis ot fortune hangs ou you decision'. A youtn thoughtless, when all the happiness of his futun home and family depend on the chances or the passions of the passing hour? A youth thought¬ less. when the career of all Ids days depends on the opportune ty of a moment? A youth thoughtless, when his ever} actian is a foundation stone oi futuro conduct and ovcry ima giuatiou of life or death. Be thoughtless in any after years, rather than now—though, in deed, tiiere is only one place where a man may bo nobly thoughtless, his death-bed. Nothing should ever be left to be done there.—Ex. ----- A Healthy Woman, A perfectly 5: •v healthy wo¬ :*I man is a rare C sigiit. a woman Bucli is H^stiful. always beau fs; ,y.v| ) Health • ' \ > brings clear >. co mplexion, V. * ^ B** cioar eye.ste¬ ^ ady nerve, elastic step, and graceful movements, A Heal thy woman is a woman with healthy mucous membranes.

Ack your druggist for a Pe-ru-na Almanac for 1898. An Arkansas editor, read a young Mr ta New k'.eads bread with her glove 'on, thou it was that the Arkan sas traveler spake and said; “We need bread with our pants on, we need bread with our boots on, and if our subsribers in arrears don’t pay up soon we shall need broad without anything on.” But it took the editor of the Texarkanian to offer up a prayer that readily aw akenen a ‘'amen” in the bosom of the average ed¬ itor. Said editor was called on to pray, in public, and fal ling ou Ins knees fie talked right out m the meeting the following prayer, “Almighty and kind Father, who from Thy throne lookest down and upon deliquenfc the government subsribers, of j men most humbly do we beseech I hee to draw near unto them «id whisper a few things into their ears that tho statutes for aid us to print. Thou kuow est our wants, but the sub scriber knowest them not and seldom stops to inquire. Let it be kuowu to them that there are patches ,on the homestead of our pants, and there is an aching void in the front of our backs,and that we hunger and i hirst and asketli us not to sup with him.

BY NO MEANS THE GREATEST. The first dispatches concern¬ ing the recent big fire in 1 ,on~ don stated that the loss woftld reach $75,900,000. It turns out to be only about $10.900,000, most of which is to be made conf.m*”'"™™ *tiio Kveu if first reports been true, the late London would have fallen far short being the most destructive flagration known since great Loudon fire in the teenth century, as the excited corrospodents said it was. Chicago, which boasts many things without reason, cati make good claims to -4i w to ,b r, 1871. Mrs. 0,Leary’s started a blaze which consum¬ ed 18,000 buildings, covering an area of 2,124 acres, made 1,000,000 people homeless and destroyed property to the a mount of $2000,000,000, or three times the value of all the real estate iu Atlanta at this time. This beats the fire rec¬ ord for all time. The great Boston fire broke out on the evening of Novem¬ ber 9, 1872, and destroyed $75 000,000 worth of property. It is estimated that the burning of Moscow, in 1812, by its patriotic citizens as a method of driving back Napoleon, caused a luss ofj$150,000,000. The London fire of last week is away down in the list of big’ blazes. It was beaten $5,000 000 the other da> by Melbourne Australia.— Atlanta Journal. MVfSIfY HTABIxKS M.H. MELTON, PROPRIETOR.
