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. What Maj. Wilkins Has to Say: Mr. W. 11.

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.

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.
