Cure for ^iles-
Piles are frequently preceded by a
sense of weight in the back, loins and
lower part of the abdomen, causing
the patient to suppose he has some
affection of the kidneys or neighbor
ing organs. At times, symptoms of
indigestion are present, flatulency,
uneasiness of the stomach, etc. A
moisture like perspiration, producing
a very disagreeable itching, after get
ting warm, is a common attendant.
Blind, Bleeding, and Itching Piles
vield at once to the application of
br. Bosanko’s Pile Remedy, which
acts directly upon the part affected,
absorbing the Tumors, allaying the
intense itching, and "effecting a per

HE TELLS OF THE DIFFERENCE BE
TWEEN RAILROADS NOW' AND
THREE YEARS AGO THE
STRONG GROW STRONGER
ANb THE W'EAK GROW'
WEAKER—MR. ARP
DIGGING POTA
TOES, ETC.
One by one they go. The big fish
keep on sw’allowing the little ones.
There is hardly a railroad now that is
limited by state lines or by its charter.
They have all been merged into the
big syndicates. They were obliged to
merge for they couldent run an inde
pendent schedule. They were pooled
out. The East and West road has
sold out to the East Tennessee and
Virginia. This is all right, I reckon,
as long as great competing lines are
left but now there is a rumor that the
East Tennessee and Virginia is selling
out to the Baltimore and Ohio. The
tendency of everything is towards
consolidation. A few years ago we
had about twenty railroads in Georgia
and every one running on its own
hook, but now we have less than half
a dozen independent lines. There
w r ere several hundred in the United
States, but they have all gone into
about ten great syndicates. This ab
sorption has done good in developing
the country and building new lines as
feeders, but it is an alarming symp
tom of consolidation of power and
money. Railroad commissions are ut
terly powerless to regulate or to con
trol them, for the commission is hedged
in by state lines and the railroads are
not. The commission can fix the
tariff from Atlanta to Augusta, but
it can’t do anything from Chicago to
Atlanta. It has too much power in
the state and too little out ©fit. Com
petition is at last the o*ly regulator.
I do not know that there is any com
plaint of oppression or unjust charges,
but I look upon the general tendency
of things with great concern, to say
the least of it. There is the Western
Union Telegraph company that has
swallowed up all competition. There is
the Standard Oil company that now
owns all the oil wells, and their pro
fits are millions of do.lars annually.
They have taken competition by the
throat and choked its life out. And
now they have brought up all the cot
ton seed oil mills from North Carolina
to Texas, and if they came across a
stubborn man who refused to sell,
they bought all the seed in the na-
borhood and forced him to sur
render. I see that the iron men
and coal men are consolidat
ing immense interests in Alabama
and Tennessee. The strong are
smothering the weak. A few years
ago there w T ere a score of retail dry
goods stores in Atlanta, now there
are only eight. The small fish had to
go under and become hirelings. Cap
ital and brains combined will crush
out capital without brains or brains
without capital. The l.ig towns
swallow up the little ones in the same
way. They swallow up their trade,
and all the* little towns can do is to
keep boarding houses for t he people
who live in the city by day and go to
the country at night. Country peo
ple wont take their own county ] aper
now, for tlie great Atlanta Constitu
tion is cheaper and four times as big,
and so the country weeklies living do
languish and languishing do live.
The time was when there was a iittle
settlement at every cross roads and
there was a wagon shop and a smith’s
shop and a shoemaker and a iittle
store and a meeting house not far
away, but they are all gone now.
The* little tanneries and the little
mills are gone, and you will never
hear a man say “I’ll meet you at the
hatters” again. It does look like a
pity that we have to go five or six
Hundred miles after a wagon when
right here we have everything to
make a wagon of. And it is the same
way with all the carriages and bug
gies and chairs and furniture of all
kinds. We are now sending the wal
nut and cherry and poplar and elm
up there and even tike marble to put
on the tops and they send it back to
us all fixed up and we buy it. What
in the world is the matter with us.
We have got lots of good schools and
colleges and we educate our children
but none of them seem to have any
fancy for the mechanical arts. Mr.
Brumby is getting rich making chairs
in Marietta. Why can’t somebody
try it at Cartersville and Rome and all
along the line? What is the reasou
that we can’t make as good a wagon
for seventy-live dollars as they make
up north? The timber is better and
the iron cheaper, and the freight
would be saved.
But it is all right, I reckon, or it
wouldn't be so. If we are happy and
contented that is the big thing. I
am happy on my little farm, and I'm
not going to make wagons. I had
rather dig potatoes. I’ve been dig
ging all day and I’ve earned my
“tater" by the sweat of my brow. I
thought I would dig a little and pick
up a iittle and tote to the heap a lit
tle and rest a good deal, but it is a
fascinating business and you keep on
from hill to hill to see the big ones
roll out until you are all sweatty and
your back aches, but you enjoy it. I
love to dig tators, but I miss the boys.
They used to enjoy it with me and
would hunt for the biggest ones and
help pick up and sort out, but they
are gone now. Their dogs are here and
look lonesome. They follow me about
now. Jessie comes home every Fri
day evening, and then I am happy
till Monday. Carl comes home once a
month and brings some of the grand
children, and we have a big tune. We
all went on the mountain last Satur
day—we children did. We climbed
trees and got chesnuts, and a burr
fell on a barefoot and it hurt bad and
cried. We took the dogs along and
a gun and killed a rabbit and
some birds an d we eat may-
pops and came back to the
fishpond about sundown, and the
chaps paddled around in the batteau
and got wet, and had no clothes to
change in, and had to be wrapped np
in cloaks and things until their clothes
were dried by the fire, and they got a
good scolding and a good supper too,
and a promise that the big circus
might come and might go without
their co-operation.
This is country life and country
happiness. So let money and power
keep on consolidating, provided they
leave us these pleasures. It may be
that some of the children or grand
children will have to be hewers of
wood and drawers of water for some
body, but we will not worry about
that now. It is good to labor and
toil and sweat for a living. Work has
its compensations. Idleness is a sin
and brings its own punishment. It is
a blessed feeling to be tired and then
to rest. Rest is the good man’s re
ward.

TELEPHONE IMPROVEMENTS.
Two Inventions—Wonderful Appar
atus for Perfecting the Tele
phone.
Courier-Journal.
John Watson, a young electrician
in the West End, lias invented an
improvement on the telephone, by
the aid of which he claims it will be
easy to hold verbal communication
with European cities. He proposes
to attach an instrument at each end
of one of the Atlantic ocean cables,
and make oratorical tests of his in
vention. Mr. Watson left Tuesday
for Washington, where he hopes to
obtain a patent on his instrument.
Meanwhile George Buckel, a young
inventor living at Eighteenth and
Market streets, claims to have made
more important improvement on
the telephone than his rival, Watson.
Buckel has completed an apparatus
which enables a man at one end of the
telephone to hear the voice at the
other terminus just as distinctly and
clearly as if the two were holding &
confidential talk face to face. The
smallest whisper or the loudest yell
can be heard at the distance of a hun
dred miles as clearly as if at your el
bow. Buckel’s invention does not
stop here, however, but he claims
that he lias an attachment to be
connected with the improvement by
which the speakers may be enabled
to see each other. How this marvel
ous effect is produced Buckel refuses
to explain, as he says that the secret
will make him a rich man if not divulg
ed to shrewd electricians, who are
always ready to reap the fruit of
others. Buckel is searching for capi
tal to back bis venture, and says he
will start for Washington to patent
his invention, if he has to walk.
Once upon a midnight dreary,
I was tossing weak and weary,
For I had a fit of ague,
And my bones were very sore.
Suddenly I read a label,
Of a medicine on my table,
But to reach’t I scarce was able;
I was so infernal sore!
Took I just one dose, ’twas bile bea
Soundly slept I and did snore.
Had the ague nevermore!
