We Lead In Low Prices
AND EASY TEEMS!
Other houses pretend to follow, but they
don’t—let them figure and prove it.
In conclusion we would respectfully say
that in buying from us, you run no risk:
Because, if you desire, the instrument
will be sent you on trial. You can then
see if it is as represented, before a dollar
is paid. Is this not fait ? Who has tno ad
vantage upon these conditions. You or
the Georgia Music Hoiiae?
Because, we are where you can reach us,
and should we misrepresent an instru
ment you could do us an irr«parab»e carn
age by giving us a bad advertisement. A
reputation for square and honorable deal
ing, for many years in the South is too
valuable to us, not to receive our careful
protection, for herein is the key of our
suecess. , . ,
Because, a friend made is a customer
gained. We are determined to make noth
ing but friends, so any representation made
by us you can put down as a Solid I act,
and govern yourself accordingly’,
Because, we will pay 7 freight both ways
if the Instrument is not as represented,
and if satisfactory we pay freight to your
home—anywhere in the South. Has any
other house made a more liberal offer than
this? ,
tfcTSend for our catalogue of 10c

that we can sell the best music for 10c.

When Girls Should Marry.
The value of the literary symposium
was never more severely tested than
in the Brooklyn Magazine, when an
attempt was made to decide at what
age girls should marry. The opinions
thus gathered do not, however, ma
terially differ. Miss Louisa M. Alcott,
speaking theoretically, says “from 23
to 25 is the suitable age.” Mrs. Lucy
Stone thinks 25 to 30 preferable. Mrs.
Rebecea Harding Davis says a woman
should not marry until fully develop
ed in mind and body. As the time of
development in individuals varies,
Mrs. Davis declines to give definite
figures. She believes that “marriage
based on a pure affection is better,
even under the worst circumstances,
than a single life under the best.’’
Mrs. Julia C. R. Dorr shinks the best
age for a girl’s marriage is between
20 and 25. Mrs. Mary B. Booth warns
girls against immature marriages and
declines to commit herself to figures.
She can, however, be set down as
favoring marriages between 25 and 30.
Mrs. A. D. T. Whitney says the an
swer cannot be put in figures, because
it is a matter that should vary with
all varying conditions and develop
ments.
Taking the opinions of these distin
guished writers among women as a
whole, we find they favor marriages
between 20 anil 30, with 25 as the gold
en mean.—Constitution.
“STRIKES.”
Mr. Editor:
It may not be known to many, or
forgotten by those who did not “make
a note of it,” but once knew it, that
the Apostle Paul is very emphatic on
the above particular subject. For
instance: Timothy I, chap, iii, vs. 2
and 3: “A bishop then must b&
blameless, the husband of one wife,
vigilant, sober, of good behavior,
given to hospitality, apt to teach;
Not given to wine, no striker, not
greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not
a brawler, not covetous.” The small
caps are mine. J. H. N.
THE RAILROAD STRIKE:?.
Philadelphia Times.
The railroad companies have now a sim
ple duty to perform. They must take on
the necessary hands and start their trains
without more delay. It is nut likely that
they will be interfered with, and if they
should be, the authority of the State is
sufficient to pn et them. When the
rein of law and o- d -r is resumed the same
public sentiment 16 has doomed a cause
less strike to fa:!u:e will insist that all
ival grievances of the workmen shall be
redressed and justice and fair dealing en
forced between employers and employed.
New York Times.
The communities which are the chief
sufferers cannot.afford io put up much
longer with a policy whom* s >le purpose
seems to be to demons-t rate the power of
the Knights of Laj»>r to work a wide
spread injury as tim penalty for disobed
ience to their demands however unreason
able or unjust.
N. Y. Con. Bulletin.
As to the strike ou the Southwestern
railroads, it could !><• -'•.en from the start
that it could end in n • other way than by
mutual concession. Both parties wruld
have to yield something. Capital had no
business to refuse to val with an organ
ized body of men. if they wanted to or
ganize. Labor had » o business to resort
to force or lawless viol mce. against capi
tal or against other lai-nivrs. If these
two points have been settl j d, both par
ties have gained something t hat is deem
ed of importance, while society and the
country have gained peace.

build a branch road from a point

do this, the junction of the Georgia
Midland with the Covington and Ma

which event, however, Covington
may still be regarded as the terminus
of the Midland road, as it will not
probably be built beyond this point.

A Stranger in New York, standing
on the middle span of the great
Brooklyn Bridge, views with wonder
the beauties of New York harbor He
sees the great cities on each side
stretching away for miles to the north
east and west. Beneath his feet the
rapidly running river, with scores of
large and small steamboats coursin^
up and down. A large four-masted
ship, bound for China, is passing un
der the great bridge in charge of a
tugboat on its way to the sea, ali
hands are busy on deck, and as she
passes from under the bridge the sap
ors give a shout. If this ship arrives
out safely and returns to this port it
will be nearly a year before she makes
the round trip.
Looking down the bay we see a
great steamer going through the Nar
rows, bound in an opposite direction
Great black clouds of smoke ascend
from her funnel. .We knew that the
stokers away down in the boile
room are replenishing the fires that
are to furnish the motive power for
the great ship, and must be attended
to constantly for the next ten da vs.
Apparently at our feet, but over a
mile away, lies Governor's Island; a
picture fresh, green and peaceful. The
old fort, Avith cannons on top lan-v
enough for a small child to crawl in,
the cannon bails piled in pyramid*
the officers’ houses and well-kept
lawns remind one of the peep show in
a pasteboard box that he made when
a child.
At our right we see a towering
structure on an Island—Bedloe's In
land. three miles and a haif away. It,
is difficult to realize the distance*is so
great, as everything stands out clear
and bright on this beautiful spring
day. This large structure is the pe
destal for Bartholdi's great statue of
“Liberty Enlightening the World.’’
which is to be one hundred and forty
two feet high, and will be completed
this month.
The engineers and workmen who
constructed the great statue will ar-
river from France in May, and coni
mence putting in place this great
wonder of modern times which will
tower three hundred and twenty feet
above the waters of the bay; a beacon
light that will show far out at sea,
and a welcome to all who enter the
beautiful harbor from oppressed anti
overcrowded Europe to make their
homes with us
This great statue is a gift from one
great nation to another, which will
stand for ages to cement the friend
ship of France and America.

construction of this great pedesta
are nearly tlirough with their labors.

Jin Old Citizen Speaks.
Mr. J. M. Norris, an old resident of
Rome, Ga., says, that he had been
badly troubled with Kidney Com
plaint for a great many years and
with Eczema for three years; at times
could scarcely walk and had tried
many remedies without benefit, until
he began taking Electric Bitters and
anointing his hands and feet with
Bucklen's Arnica Salve. This treat
ment afforded him great relief and
he strongly recommends Electric Bit
ters to all who suffer with Kidney
’Complaints, or need a Blood Purifier.

The staff correspondent of the Au
gusta Chronicle writes:
Major Barnes says that the Vote fox
unlimited silver coinage is a most
memorable one, prophetic of future
events. When this Congress first met
the silver question was little under
stood. If anything, there was a prej
udice against silver. After full dis
cussion, and with tremendous pres
sure from the money centres and th“
Administration, free coinage was lo>:
by a comparative!}* small majority
the other way. The computation is
that, three months ago, had the vot^
been taken, without dicussion, the
gold men would have triumphed com
pletely. They have steadily lost
ground while the silver men have
gained against all the odds of Eastern
cajolery and Executive patronage.
Mr. Tillman could only get forty-five
minutes for iiis speech, and required
an hour more. He was only allowed
to speak at all by the courtesy of Mr.
Lanhain. who surrendered part of his
time. There is no doubt at all that lm
knows more about this question than
any man in Congress, having studied
it from the ground tip and digested it
in his own original fashion. The at
tempt tochoke him off failed, and, even
with the brief time accorded, he won
a great triumph and received plau
dits on all hands. I venture to say
that, when published, his speech will
take rank with the most remarkable
and convincing productions in the
most momentous financial problem.
