About tim worst enemy a woman

The Declaration of Indepcnd
mice was read in many places last
Tuesday.
President McKinley has ordered
General Wheeler to report to Genera!
Otis nt Manilla. Gen. Whe-der will
leave on the next transport for Ma¬
nilla.
By lighting 'the Pbilipino’s on the
Installment, plan, as McKinley « pol¬
icy now seems to tic, this and too
next generation will lmt see the end
of tlie war there. Oh, what; a blun¬
der, my countrymen Marietta Jour

An intelligent farmer has discov¬
ered that by planting onions and po¬
tatoes in the same field in alternate
vows the onions become so strong
that thev bring tears to the eyes of
the potatoes in such volume that the
roots are kept moist and a big crop
is raised in spite of iho dioutb.
Col. Bobt. L Berner nnulo a speceii
in Augusta on tho 1th. His audience
was much pleased with his effort m 1
til ho sprung his expansion views.
A deadly silenco prevailed during
his remarks on this point which is
suggestive of the views emerf‘lined
by his audience upon this question.
A man in the lower part of tin
State shipped a car load of melon
to William J Bryan as a fourth of
July present. The gentleman neg¬
lected to prepay the freight and his
present was not accepted. f t seems
to Vie perfectly natural for some woil
tnenning people to msicc unpardon¬
able blunders.
Thecleaih oi Montgomery M Fol
torn .the poet-journalist, which oe
eurred in Atlanta a few days a • ■
has occasioned much ( sadness c
Georgia. He was known throughout
the State and esteemed greatly. H e
press has lost one of its most valua
ble factors and tho people a wot tlij
frisnd.
July the 4th was celebrated in a
fitting manner bv the people of Geor¬
gia. Business was practical Im¬ S’.i i
pended throughout the State and tl e
day given over to public gatherings
where patriotic speeches were made
and a general celebrating indulged.
The 4th in Georgia grows with each
year.
Tho crop prospect m
ia unusually flattering and our
farmers could bring their bonds
together and maKO an exhibit at
tha Slate Fair that \ Id bring
awnv the prize. It is yet time
for those who feel an iptere* in
til# matter to get it on foot,
Preparations for the State Fair
to ho held in Atlanta this fail arc
moving along satisfactorily. Hon.
A. J. Smith, member of the Fair
Executive Committee, informs us
that the prospect for the Fair is
very encouraging, He thinks it
will bo decidedly successful and of
vast profit to the people of 1 he
Stnte. Every effort is being
made to have it oclipse any previ
OU9 Stnte Fair and so far it protn
isos todoso by long odds.
Hon. Win. Jennings Bryan ad¬
ded materially to the interest of
the4th of July in Georgia. He
addressed about three thousand
Georgia crackers at the Barnos
villc chatauqua 011 the 4th and
was banqnetted at the Kimball
by onthusiastic and appreciative
Atlantians at night. He is mak¬
ing very line speeches fail! these will warm be
days and unless signs
the Democratic nominee in 1900.
That wheat convention which
is to be held in Macon on July 12
ought to be a grand success. We
hope that some patriotic farmer
from Rockdale will attend and
give a detailed account of the
proceedings. Wheat raising in
Georgia can be made profitable
and wo hope to see the day when
tlie State makes her own bread
and enough for many others.
Success to 1 he Telegraph and Us
wheat convention.
The Albany Herald correctly savs:
“Many communities are
on foreign capital to come to
aid and are chasing wiil-o-the wisps
in 'ho form of Northern and Ear tern
capitalists. Wc might as well con¬
vince ourselves without wastim- val
liable time that if we are to have lac
torics we must build them with our
capital. The experience
North and South Carolina should
not bo lost in Georgia; we should
meet theproposition squarely by put
tine our own dollars into the coveted
miils. After wo nave blazed the way
and foreign capital discovers that wo
a,re not afraid to trust ourselves
will come to seek investment among
us of its own accord. ’

Fairvlcvv Sunday !?>cUo<il.
By request 1 will send for publics
tion a report of our little Sunday
school. A little over two years ago a
few of our people, t . ding tiie need of
a Sunday school, decided we must
have one; but a difficulty arose when
the question v as asked, "Who wi 11
lead?" hat was soon settled by a
proposiuou to call ou Mr L. J.
a consecrated Christian and good
Sunday school worker, to assist 11 s.
Ever ready to help in a good cause,
ha soon had our school of about forty
including teachers and pupils, or
ganized and himself acted as super¬
intendent; also had his girted daugh¬
ters, n trio of sweet singers, to lend a
helping hand. They leve to sing for
Jesus.
During the summer and fall months
we had a good attendance, interest¬
ing lessons and good order and had
no reason to become discouraged,
but when winter came we had to dis¬
band. Last summer we tailed to re¬
vive our school. -; *
This spring, however, having more
children and more help, we organized
again and now have a flourishing
school of forty-five regular attend¬
ants, while each Sabbath brings
some friend or friends to encourage
and help us with cheering words.
We have, as superintendents Messrs.
Capehart and Scott, two earnest.
Christian worker©, well suited to their
work; Mr. Will Lester as Secretary
and Misses Eddie McDaniel and
Maud Scott are organists.
We ger good literature very cheap,
published by the American Sunday
School Union.
We have a typical union school,
being composed of members from all
denominations and working in per¬
fect harmony, realizing vhat
Father knows no sect nor creed in
appointing His servants and tn v t on¬
ly as one with Him can wc know
true happiness.

You may have heard
about SCOTT’S EMULSION
and have a vague notion
that it is cod-liver oil with
its bad taste and smell and
all its other repulsive fea¬
tures. It is cod-liver oil, the
purest and the best in the
world, but made so palata¬
ble that almost everybody
can take it. Nearly all
children like it and ask for
more.
SGQTT’S
EMULSION
looks like cream; it nour¬
ishes the wasted body of
the baby, child or adult
better than cream or any
other food in existence. It
bears about the same rela¬
tion to other emulsions that
cream does to milk. If you
have had any experience
with other so-called “just as
good ’ ’ preparations, you
will find that this is a fact.
The hypophojpltitcs that are
combined with the cod-liver oil
give additional value to it because
they tone up the nervous system
and impart strength to the whole
body.
