ears Hnd have made for themselves
osts of frieuds, who will regret to
o them changed to a new field of
over our city and filled the hearts of
our people with sorrow.
Dr. Harris was greatly beloved by
all classes of our citizens. He was
an excellent citizen, an able physi
cian, an upright man, a true friend.
Brave, honest, generous and true-
all the elements that go to make up
a strong, reliable and lovable char
acter were admirably blended in his
personality, and illustrated the truth
that
“The bravest are the tenderest,”
A man of good judgment, he ex
erted a wide influence as a citizen
and his opinions commanded univer*
sal respect, but bis ability as a phy
sician and his kindness of heart,
won for him the tenderest love of
very many of our people. 1
His sickness and death was peou*
llarly sad. While he was yet able to
discharge his professional duties and
was daily administering to the sick
with his accustomed faithfulness, be
was strickeaed with a stomach af*
lliction that gave him great pain
and anxiety. At first he thought bis
suffering was caused by indigestion;
but continued and increasing pain
led him to believe that a misplaced
or floating kidney caused the trouble
and that the surgeon’s knife was the
remedy. After conferring with the
physicians of this city, he went to
Atlanta to consult Dr. Perrin Nichnl*
son and other eminent surgeons. The
diagnosis of the Atlanta physicians
rather confirmed the opinion of Dr.
Harris, and be returned home to
make arrangements to submit him*
self to the surgeou’s knif.-. Return
ing to Atlanta for this purpose he
was accompanied by his nephew,
Dr. T. M. Hall of this city, and Dr.
Chas. H. Hall of Macon. After a
thorough examination by the lead*
ing surgeons of Atlanta it was agreed
that It was not a floating kidney, but
a malignant growth on the lutes*
tines, and that an operation would
only hasten the end ; and our belov*
ed fellow citizen came back home to
die. The result of this examiuation
was heard with great sorrow by our
citizens. This *»as about a month
ago, smce^whenlhe pationtlv awaited
the inevitable end—and it came
quickly, but it found him ready.
During the trying ordeal through
which he was called upon to pass no
received the tenderest nursing by
devoted kindred and the sincerest
sympathy of our entire oomumnitv.
With life’s duties well done he sank
to rest honored and beloved by all
who knew him,
Hi3 funeral took place, at 11 o’
clock last V\ ednesday morning, from
tlie old homestead where he was
born nearly sixtv years ago Many
of the stores in tho city were closed
and our citizens generally turned out
to pay the last sad tribute to a won
thy man. The impressive services
were conducted by tlie friend and
pastor of the deceased, Rev. D. W.
Bmunen of the Presbyterian church.
The remains were escorted to the
grave bv the Confederate survivors
of this city, under command of Lieut
Commander, T. F. Newell. Nephews
of Dr. Harris were pail-bearers as
follows : S. E. Harris and Howell
Harris of Macon. L. C. Hall, W. H.
Hunter, T. M. Hall, W. H. Hall and
L. H. Andrews, Th«- physicians of
the city and county followed the
hearse as honorary pall hearers. The
Senior Class of the (J. N. & I, College
attended the funeral in a body. It
was one of the largest funeral pto*
cessions ever seen in this city.

Do you know what Cologne is? How it
is made? The essential oil of fragnnt
(lowers is obtained by thickly sticking
the flowers iu fresh fat, which has beep
rendered free from all taint of rancidity,
and water, and after allowing them to re
main in the fat, spread on panes of glass
arranged tn stacks covered, for several
days. This operation is repeated until tho
fat is saturated with oil. This essential
oil is then dissolved out of tho fat by spe
cially rectified spirits. Fat, thus prepared
is called Pomade, Many essential oils,
used in perfumery of the cheaper kinds,
are obtained by direct distillation of the
(lower, bark or wood of the plant contain
ing it. In the preporatlon of our
SOUTHERN BELLE COLOGNE
the very choicest material is selected and
the experience of many years in blending
these delightful essences of natural flow
