HE EXCELLENCE OF SYIUP OF FIGS
is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it ia
(manufactured by scientific processes
known to tjhe California Fid Syrup
Co. only, add we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fio Syrup Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the Cali
fornia Fio Syrup Co. with the medi
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
igiven to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not gripe nor
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of

Death of a Soldier.
On the bright and beautiful morn
vng of October 11th, the spirit of Allie
SDigby took its flight to mansions
made with hands.
He was one of those noble Georgia
volunteers who left home and friends
stnd enlisted in the Cuban war.
His company was assigned to Camp
Nortlien. where lie went July the 9th
A tew days alter his” arrival in camp
lie was taken very ill and sent to the
hospital. Through careful nursing he
■seemed to recover and eapie home.—
51e returned to the camp three weeks,
ibefore his death.
In speaking about camp-life he said
-•1 am a changed boy. God saw it was
wst to lead mein the way He did.
Six soldiers accompanied his remains
toome. He was !a : d to rest close by
?iis father, who preceded him to the
^better world only a few months ago.
The luneral services were conducted
at Griffin, before conveying his remains
so his home in west Baldwin. His la
worite song, “Swiet by and by” was
sung at the grave.
He leaves an aged mother, one broth
er and a host of relatives and friends
to mourn their loss.
LObAL AND BUSINESS MENTION-
Rev. I). W. Brannen preached a
special sermon to the Cadets of the
M. G. M. & A. College, at the Pres
byterian church. Sunday evening. The
Corps was present in a body, and lis
tened attentively to the sermon.
The subject of the sermon was, “Do
Young People Need Religion, and
Why?” The reasons usually given
are, young people need religion because
of the uncertainty of life; and because
religion is very comforting and sus-
t lining and the time will come when
this function of religion will be sorely
needed. * . • • •
There are tlffctq- weighty-' reasons
why young peoplesbeed “religion. One
enson is young people need steadying,
and religion is the greatrageht of stead-
ncss. Thu element of steadiness in
character is omnipotent. It is not
brilliancy nor enthusiasm, hut patient
composure that is incapable of. taking
t that wins in life’s contests.
Young people also need restraint and
religion impels restraint. Religion in
sists on still virtues. A young man
who is a Christian will not swear, nor
break tlie Sabbath, nor hang around
dormitories where young women are.
Power is known not by giving loose
rein to passion and enthusiasm, but by
keeping these in subjection.
Young people also need religion for
harmonious mental and physical devel
opment. Stunted minds and bodies
are a product either of no religion or a
thlse religion. True religion contrib
utes to good health and longevity. It
also develops individuality. Person
ality is omnipotent, and religion em
phasizes personality.
Young people need religion as a re
serve force. They are shielded while
young from many of life’s evils; hut it
will not always be so. When the evils
of life came, the force which only re
ligion gives will be necessary. A ydung
man who used to walk the streets of
this town i$ now in a great city ex
posed to its temptations. He writes
that lie is able to resist because of the
religion which he.erfibruccd before be
was tried.

A Conversation Between Two Farmers at the New
Post Office.
Two farmers, one from Wilkinson county and the other from
Hancock, met the other day in front of the new Post Office, and
the following conversation occurred: I declare “Jones,” this is a
big improvement, and Milledgeville should be proud of her Post
Master and new office and fixtures. Yes, “Smith,” and I tell you
Milledgeville is on the up grade and don’t you forget it. Why
have you been down to see Barrett’s new offices at his warehouse?
It is really better than the Post Office, and it is simply “out of
Farmers; and
sight.” In the first place, it is so convenient for the
I tell yon, Smith, Barrett made a “ten stroke” when he engaged
such a good, reliable country lellow, right out of Hancock pounty
for his weigher. You see John L. Harper is a country boy and we
farmers like to see onr “Farmer Boys" looking after our business;
and another thing, “Smith,” Barrett has got an eye for business,
and his kind attention to his customers will bring him plenty of
trade. Come, “Smith,” let us go down with this load of cotton and
try him. His arrangements down there and the men he has with
him kinder makes me want to give him a trial, and from what 1 they
all say, when you once start with him you can’t feel right any where
else. Well,.“Jones,” you seem so “stuck” on Barrett’s warehouse I
believe I will go with you this time, and let you know the result
later on. And by the way, do you take the Union Recorder? Yes.
Well I will tell you through that how I came out. Good bye, and
be good to yourself and interest, and we will meet again at Barrett’s
Warehouse.
