THE COLUMBIA SENTINEL
Ballard & Atkinson, Proprietors.
The jfollowing correspondence of
to all:
St. Lows, March 3, 1886.
Messrs, Barrett A Co., Augusta, Ga.
Dear Sirs- I feel it my duty to the public
generally to publish my experience with vour
'most valuable preparation, H. H. I’. I was
suffering a groat deal with biliousness and
dyspepsia and felt terribly. I was going to be
married in a few days, and was at a loss what
to do, as I was generally depressed. I fortuna
tely met Mr Newt Heggie on the streets of St.
Louis, when lie gave me a bottle ot H. H. I’.
It acted like a charm, and in three days I was
perfectly relieved. So pleased was I with the
effects I Bought a dozen bottles, and for the
supi of 15 spent I received ten fold returns.
Yours truly,
Thomas G. Brocks.
The above is forcibly illustrated by
the following private letter to Mr.
Heggie:
St. Louis, March 3, 1886.
Dear Newt—How I can ever thank you
sufficiently for your recommendation of H. H.
P. I do not know, but rest assured I feel under
many obligations. After my wife and I return
ed from our bridal tour nothing would do Sally
but to have her mother live with us. She
came, and from the first began quarreling
with the cook, the butter, house girl aud all,
and in fact raising a row about everything.
Nothing could please her. The tea was too
strong or too weak. When we had pie she want
ed pudding. At last patience ceased to be a
virtue, and, being strongly under the impress
ing she was crazy, I sent for Dr. J.——. He
after a careful diagnosis ofher case, said she
was suffering from biliousness and torpid liver.
I then saw at last peace and happiness in view.
I induced her to take H. H. P. Even the first
dose made a marvelous change, and after
having used two bottles, “niirabh dictn,” she
has become the nicest old lady in the land. If
I had not fortunately met you on the street I
fear that ere this I would have been a lunatic.
My advice to you is, if you ever get married,
and to all other young couples, is to lay in
a few bottles of H. H. P. With kind regards, I
am vour friend, Tom.
Ji’ B.— The neighbors are surprised at the
great change in mv mother-in-law. Tell the
proprietors of H. H.'P. that when I tell them
the cause they will have to enlarge their busi
ness. Send me one dozen by express.
For sale by all Druggists at
50 cents a bottle.
Try it once and you
will be pleased.
Read and be con
vinced.

Thursday of last week the Columbia
t County Sunday School Convention
I convened in annual session at Ap
j'liiv’, with an average attendance.—
The regular routine of business was
transacted. The exercises consisted,
as usual in vocal music, recitations,
speeches, etc. Gen. Evans, of Au
gusta, was present and delivered one
of his characteristic addresses
The spread at noon was indeed
creditable.
Mrs McCormick, of Linwood, was
unanimously chosen to represent this
county in the State Sunday School
Convention that convenes in the Cen

LINCOLN.
News: Th* wheat and oat crops
will be an entire and absolute failure
It behooves our farmers to make
some preparation to meet the crisis.
We must do so.
Squire Fergqson varied the mo
notony of law practice with a little
mule practice Monday. Judge Bala
am and Squire didn’t “ge-haw”
longer than half a day, before a writ
of habeas corpus mulibus was sued
out.
A negro girl, living on Mr. R. I.
Willis’ place, was burned to death
Tuesday evening. She was subject
to epileptic fits, and it is supposed
that during one of these spells, she
fell in the fire with the. above results.
Some people think that tin editor
can live on air. Perhaps this notion
originated from the shadowy form of
the above mentioned luninud, Don’t
imagine that, since he can give to
airy nothing a local habitation and a
name” that he can subsist on the same
dainty dish. He breathes the balmy
air but ho cannot eat it.
One of Lincoln’s dudes of the
latest style,r igged himself up a pair
of high heeled boots and arrayed in
an, immense “neck” vat. of the lattest
agony, hied to the abode of his sweet
heart. He crossed his legs and did
every thing in his power to provoke
some comment on his outfit, and put
out. Growing impatient, he solemn
ly informed her that “if she didn’t
say something aboout bis bhutes” ho
would “der-raw" himself languidly
“he-ome.” They were a five dollar
“couple” (his boots of course.)
IIANCWI
Sparta Ishmaelite: So long as
land continues as plentiful and as
cheap as it is in this county there will
be no excuse for idleness or for a
scarcity of bread.
During this week, we have known
of two instances in which cholera in
chickens was cured with salts and
paregoric. This is u fact worth
knowing.
Jim Mason couldn’t resist the
temptation to go to Atlanta to take a
last look at Mr. Davis. He says that
the old man looks younger than he
did during the war.
The man that doesn’t see more
points of beauty and fitness in Davis’
march through Georgia than in
Barnburner Sherman’s is very closely
related to the devil in character and
in destiny.
Judge McCray reports the stand of
corn and cotton in his neighborhood
generally good. Some farmers have
cotton far enough advanced to be
chopped out. By the way, the Judge
is a solid and reliable citizen, and
would do honor to his county in the
LeguJature.
Terms, $1 A Year, Eh Advance.
WILKES.
Gazette: His honor interspersed
the dull routine of court proceeding*
this week with a little wit and humor.
In his charge to the grand jury he
’ remarked that if any gentleman had
so much money that they could not
get rid of otherwise than at the
gambling table, the public could ac
commodate the overplus. At anoth
er time during a trial the name#
, Martha ami Vineyard occured quite
i frequently, when his honor drolly
asked if that case came up from Her
tha's Vineyarl.
The statement that Capt. Harry
' Hill had sold his interest in the
White Plains railroad, was a mistake.
He commenced work in earneat, on
Wednesday with one hundred con
victs. be is one of the most ener
getic young men in the State and
will push this enterprise to an early
completion.
NrDUFFIE.
Journal: Mr. J. F. Shields is not
only a big success as a merchant but
has been quite successful in raising
carp. He has a fine pond on hi*
plantation to which he hM made eight
visits this spring and caught enough
carp to supply the table of himself and
his neighbors. The fish take the bait
readily, and are easily and rapidly
caught
From information obtained from
the farmers we are glad to report that
the prospect of the oat crop is quit*
promising. As a general thing there
is a good stand of corn and it is in
good condition and look* thrifty.
Most of the cotton is planted in Bret
class order, and laborers are working
faithfully, which is one of the principal
means of success with the formers.
The Lincolnton News intimatea that
our old and valued friend, Col. Joe.
Strother is on the brink of matrimo
ny. We have not had an opportunity
in many days to feel the Colonel*
pulse and examine his tongue, and
hence we are ready to rely upon the
better knowledge of the News. There
fore, we congratulate our friend in
advance of the catastrophe, and hope,
on that auspicious occasion,, ha will
extend the usual courtesies to mem
bers of the press.
