Twilis^ t Mueinss Don't light the lamps too early, let the twilight steal into the house and gentle thoughts into your heart. A day well spent prepares the mind to enjoy the soothing influences of the hour, and the glory-tints of parting day will woo the soul into harmony with God. But, if in the pursuit of pleasure or in the struggle for bread, or more money, or fdme, you have soiled your soul, can you |do better than repent and trust in God? A man should leave his cares at his place of business and not carry them home at nightfall. But if, perchance, some harrassing thought should cling to and fret him, the family should be kind, considerate and patient, and he will become serene under these gentle influences and renew his strength for the morrow's battle of life. You cannot expect everybody to think and act according to your plan. Dead the way and if it is seen to be ■desirable vou will have followers. It is hard to drive even a cow into a new pen. but if she is tolled in her calf will follow. Boys spend your evenings at home. Don't say : you “can go Loins ! when vou have nowhere else to go.' .Your h ood. patient mother will soon be gone and then you will feel that the old home was the dearest spot on earth. Hat red is a wild beast that drives happiness out of the heart and leaves it desolate. The late Dr. Evans was a man whose heart was full of love and he enjoyed perfect peace. Do not grow weary in well-doing; patient perseverance will bring its reward. Only those who hold out faithful to the end shall receive a crown of glory. Till a thing is done, men wonder that you think it can be done, and when you have done it, wonder it was never done before.—C. H. Spurgeon. Better wear out than rust out. Af ter all. constant employment is man’s best safeguard. A busy man has no time to entertain the devil. We knew a man who prayed for his political enemies, because, he said, lie could not hate the man lie prayed for. “Count that day lost whose sun low descending Views from thy hand no worthy ac tion done.” What is tlie good of spying holes in people's coats, when we can’t mend them?—John Ploughman. Those who have faith in their des tiny, leave! ‘foot-prints in the sand of time.' Early learn self-control. It will save many a haart-ache. Boys who are kind to their mother make prosperous men. The Solitary Horseman. 'Captain higgles worth, who is a cf Legislature, stopped an- at ►Sam didate for the the unpretentious house of old ►Saber. After supper, while the can didate w as sitting on the porch smok ing a cigar, Saber's little boy shyly . -approached. “Come here, my son. Sit on my knee. Now you are fixed. l)o you go to school?” “No. but me and Dick killed a water moccasin yistidy." “You did?” “Ah, hah." “Were you not afraid he would bite you?” “Ho, he couldn't bite me. I could git outen his way and hit him with a rock." ' “My little man, after awhile you can tell people that you sat on Capt. Niggles worth’s knee.' 1 “Ho, that ain't nothing to tell, I sot -on my pap's knee yistidy an' he’s big- ..ger’n you.' 1 “Yes it would be something to tell, for I am going to the legislature.’ 1 “Pap says you ain’t.” “What?” putting the boy down. “Yes. when lie seed you cornin’ he said: ‘Yonder comes that blamed fool. He thinks he's going to the leg- isiatu'. but he ain’t got sense enough to holler when lie's dog bit.’ That’s what my pap said.” ‘‘Get away.” A few moments later, had the night not been so dark, a solitary horseman might havejbeen seen riding along the old military road.—Arkansaw Travel er.

For sale in Milledgeville, by C. L. Case, Druggist. The executive committee of the Seventh Georgia Regiment survivors met last weekend determined to hold a reunion of the regiment on July 21. They will picnic in Atlanta or near Grant’s park. Gen. Gartrell, Maj. Joseph Ganahl, P. Francisco Smith and other members of the regiment will address their old comrades.

Exceptionally clean, prevents dandruff, a perfect dressing. 52 lm. A large number of the leading citi zens in the northeast and other sec tions of Georgia have been approach ed with a petition to Gov. McDaniel asking the pardon of George T. Jackson, of Augusta, and many names were secured in Athens. A gentle- man who is intimate with the Gover- •ner says that in less than three months Mr.‘Jackson will be a free <nan. ONE NIGHT ONLY. The Opera House, the citizens of Augusta, Ga., the Mayor, the mem bers of Council, the Judge, the Solic itor General, the ubiquitous small boy with his infernal whistle anti the city Assessor. • Standing room only for the house is full, brim full and fluttering with fans and feathers and splendid with lights and flowers and glorious with fashion and candidates for the Legislature. What’s the matter? Dull old Augusta is doing the grand to-night; everybody dressed up and every face wreathed with its sweetest smile. What is the matter? A little bell rings and everybody starts and is still, even the small boy’s whistle is hushed as slowly the great curtain rolls up. “Oh how nice they all look!” the sweet girl graduates of the Tubman High School, greeted with the dust of tremendous applause. That is what’s the matter, the city in love. What Lucy Cobb is to Ath ens, what Shorter is to Rome, the Tub- man is to Augusta; a sweetheart. She is quite a small sweetheart, but there is poetry enough in her bright eyes to mash the whole State if they could but know what a sweet little creature she can be when she wants to be; for with her fine eyes and cute little ways she is a cunning little girl to-night. Did you ever go to the Theatre ex pecting nothing and get disap pointed, so very disappointed that when the curtain falls you feel right sad.and don't know why? It’s because you can never see tlie play again without having seen it before. The parts taken by the 2nd and third classes, afforded a charming feature of the entertainment, their marching and forming of pretty fig ures on the stage was capital. Did you ever see an umbrella drill? If not, the next announcement you see which even hints at the possibility of such being part of an entertain ment, you go, and if you don't like it, the girls are not pretty. If you had seen the drill of the young ladies of the Tubman High school whh their bright umbrellas and pretty fans vou would have been .perfectly delighted, I know. The graduates for ’SO are, Miss W. A. Crabbe, Miss Carrie Gow, Miss Mamie Rogers, Miss Minnie Miller, Miss Maggie Miller. Miss E. "Wallace, Miss M. M. Berry, Miss A. Sumeran, Miss A. B. Sancken, Miss M. L. Sib ley, Miss J. P. Lester, Miss A.V. Rich ards, Miss M. L. Land, Miss Floride Skinner, Miss M. A. McKnight, Miss Fleming, Miss Lucy Wiison, Miss Lou ise Cole. The Diplomas were delivered to the the class by Hon. J. S. Davidson in one of his happiest efforts and the Hon. Jos. Ganahl the medals and the school’s present to the Principal, Mr. John Neely. Miss Gow divides the first honor with Miss Sibley and takes the Davidson medal, while Miss Sibley is awarded the Neely medal. It is unusual to see a whole class so proficient in deep things, yet have pretty cheeks and bright eyes and lots of every day sense. Their com positions showed thought and appli cation while their songs and recita tions evinced a knowledge of how to fascinate the most exacting. When Prof. Pelot says you can write, you write well; when he says well, it's useless to try .and improve, be content. The graduates from the T. H. 8. received from him at this com mencement the encomium, beautiful— so if any fellow in Milledgeville should have occasion to write to any one of this graduated class he had best hold a steady hand and if he should hap pen to spell who “hoo,” I just dare him to come over here. The songs of Miss Minnie Miller, Miss Sumeran, Miss Bessie Miller and Miss Rogers showed that the Tubman has a teacher of music: really I don’t know who is their music teacher,but I do know that that teacher knows mu sic. Oh, I like to have forgotten one of the sweetest voices of the evening;Miss Crabbe sang a dear little song that was much applauded, “Is he here?” Yes he was there and his name is le gion. Of course I have skipped about and left out much that possibly would please the readers of the Union and Recorder more than the features spec ially mentioned, but space, the old stereotyped apology, I have the cheek to offer in defense. Well the commencement exercises are over and the curtain falls only for a few minutes to rise again on the prettiest picture I ever saw on any stage, the graduates deployed among the oaks, in a serai-circle, to sing a farewell by the light of the moon. As they stood waiting for the first note from the accompaniment, there was just a little touch of sadness in the picture but it threw the word exquis ite right in their midst as they stood waiting. Exquisite! what? Picture? Poem? And this picture, the last verse —but ah! what a pity, this last verse of this beautiful poem has this last word, so out of place, “The flowers that bloom in the spring tra la have nothing to do with the case,” A. B. C. BILE BEANS! What a funny name for a medicine! Nevertheless it is very significant as applied to the article. Bile, according to Webster, is “a yel lowish bitter, viscid nausceous fluid, secreted by the liver.’’ Whenever the hvei. does not act properly this fluid is retained in the blood and-poisons the whole system, and sallowness and misery is the result.
