Two Ways.
Good Advice to long Men by the Ar
kansaw Philosopher-
The Arkansaw Traveler says: The
worse thing you can do for the aver
se young lawyer is to send him to
the legislature. The country paper
is responsible for this. The editor
refers to him as the silver-tongued
orator of the country. Very few
young men survive this imputation.
The silver-tongued orator must keep
himself before the people. He is
suddenly awakened to a realization of
his own importance, aud he must
maintain his position. Until the paper
proclaimed it he did not know that
be was a great man. He had often
thought so, but he did not know it
His announcement as a candidate for
the legislature came up as a joke. He
bad no idea of such a thing, but
when he saw that hundreds of men
were willing to give him a chance, he
threw out his arms, embraced the op
portunity and became a candidate.
By going to the legislature he lost his
practice, but he smiled at this, for to
him distinction in a political way is
worth more than the remuneration of
law. He neglects the law books and
studies the ward aud township. His
friends make him believe that he is a
big man. He does not think for
liimself but allows others to think for
him. The sluggish boy who was in
the office with him is still plodding
along. He could not be elected to the
legislature. He is no orator. He
tried to make a speech once, but
stamered shamefully. The boys
called him a mutton head. They
declared that he would never amount
to anything. Such taunts as these
drove him to harder study. He knew
that he must resort to books. He
read book after book, yet he had a
poor command of language. He
knew that he would never become a
speaker, so, in humiliatin g resignation,
he devoted himself to the study of
law. People often spoke of his brilliant
friend. “He will make his mark,’’
they said. “He is so quick. He can
grasp an idea in a moment. Law is
too dull for him: he is a statesman.”
The brilliant young man goes to con
gress. The community is loud in its
praise, but in congress he comes in
contact with stubborn old fellows
who have spent their lives in search
ing for facts. Fourth of July oratory
amounts to nothing. He rants, but
no one pays any attention to him.
His pet measure is defeated. His
constituents are surprised. He comes
home and attempts to explain his
course. He has done nothing—has
made no record. Election time
draws near and he announces him
self a candidate for re-election. The
people ever forbearing, give him
another trial. He does his best, but
his best is nothing. He comes
home at the end of his term and
settles down to the practic of law.
Law books are strange to him. He
feels, awkward when he goes into
court The dull boy who was in the
office with him is a leading lawyer.
He is no orator, but he has away of
stating facts, has a crisp and lucid
masner of expression that strikes the
jurj-. That big white house on the
Gill belongs to him. Everybody says
is a fine lawyer. His calm,
<lispa r si<>nate arguments before the
Supreme court are said to be master
piece* of logic. He ventures nothing.
With him everything is certain. The
brilliant young man becomes a cheap
lawyer. With him everything is
haphazard. He relies on his oratory,
but his oratoy fails him. He takes to
drink. Years afterwards he is a
confirmed drunkard His wife and
daughter support him. His dull
friend is in the United States senate,
Millie Cooper, a negro woman, left
her home near Powder Spring Friday,
and went over Powder Spring creek
into town to do some washing, leaving
her children nt home. Three of
them attempted to follow her, and in
coining across the foot log all of them
fell off, and two of them were drown
ed. Their bodies were recovered not
far from the place of the accident.
Covingtcn will probably have
street railroad and a cotton compress
before very long.
Two negro women recently escaped
from the Covington jail by rnmoving
a few rocks from the walls of the
building.
Over s ventv miles of the Savannah,
Dublin and Western railway are
graded and ready for the crossties
The first shipment of mils is expected
in about three weeks.
Atlanta churches are considering
the matter of paid choirs, and it is
not impossible the old fashioned
congregational singing will again
prevail. It is claimed that the pay
of the choirs is excessive.
Gainesville can boast of more fine
horses than any other town of her size
in the state.
Thousands of Dollars.
I Gentleman Who Has Reached the Proph
et's Age.
JAMES C. DUNLAP.
Almont three score years and ten have pass
cd over the head of J times C. Dunlap; the
treats of seventy winters haw served to
whiten his lockn, and the warmth and
gladness of as many summers have pre
served in him their geniality and friendly
spirit. Man’s allotted time of lift; lias been
given him and he is yet as hale and as
hearty as if he was pr“pared to double
the prophet’s age. He lives at. 2G4 East
Cain Street, Atlanta, with his worthy wife
and family.
“My wife has,” said Mr. Dunlap, recently
‘ for the past three years been a great suffer
er from rheumatism. The disease attacked
her in the sciatic form, and caused her terrible
suffering. She was tortured almost all the
time, although we did everything in our power
to alleviate her pains. The disease appeared
to have a firm hold upon her, and last summer
and fall she suffered the most excruciating
painsand agony. Her system offered little or
no resistance to the ravage* of this disease
We almost despaired of relieving her of its
clutches, and it was with heavy hearts and
little faith we began the use of Hunnicutt’s
Rheumatic Cute, at the earnest solicitation of
our friends last December. The e fleet of the
medicine was almost miraculous. She began
to improve at almost the first dose, and
although at this time she has only taken
Ixittles, I can truthfully say that thousands of
dollars would not express the good it has
accomplished for her. Her rheumatic pains
and twinges have entirely disappeared. It is
certainly a wonderful remedy, and I desire to
be put upon record assaying that any person
who allows a friend to sutler from the ravages
of disease when a specific of this kind can be
firocured from any drug store of this broad
and of ours, at the trilling price of one dollar
a bottle, within the reach of even the poorest,
is naught but a criminal.” Manufactured by
J. M. Hunnicutt A Co., Atlanta, Ga.

NOT SEARED-
BIT THE HEART-THROBS OF TRIE
MAIHOOD.
Sparta, Ga., Sept, 22,1885. —To the
Constitution, Atlanta, —Were I to
pratice deception in a case like this. 1
would think that my heart hud be
come Roared beyond recognition.
To be guilty us bearing false testi-,
tnony, thereby imperilling the lives of i
iny fellow-men, would place me '
beneath the dignity of n gentleman. |
The facts which I disclose are en
dorsed and vouched for by the cum-1
munity in which I live, and I trust;
they max avert the influence intend-I
ed.
For twenty long years I have
suffered untold tortures from s tei'i'i ’
ble pain and weakness in the small of '
my back, which resisted all modes and
manner of treatment.
For a long time the horrifying
pangs of an eating cancer of my
lower lif lias added to my misery and
suffering. This encroaching, burning
and painful sore on my lip was pro
nounced Epithelia) Cancer Dy the
prominent physicians in this section,
which stubbornly resisted the best
medical talent. About eighteen
months ago a cutting, piercing pain
located in my breast, which could not
be allayed by the use, of ordinary
modes of treatment.
These sufferings of misery and
prostrations became so great that, on
the 18th of last July, a leading physi
cian said that I could not live longer
than four days, and I had about given
up in despair. The burning and ex
cruciating ravages of the cancer, the
painful condition of my back and
breast, and the rapid prostration of
my whole system combined to make
me a mere wreck of former manhood.
While thus seemingly suspended
on a thread between life and death, 1 |
commenced the use of B. B. 8., the |
grandest blood medicine, to me mid i
my household, ev-r used.
The effect was wonderful—it was i
magical. The excruciating pains I
which had tormented me by day and
by night for twenty years were soon
held in abeyance, and peace and
comfort were restore I to a suffering
man, the cancer commenced healing,
strength was imparted to my feeble
frame, and when eight bottles had
been used I was one of the happiest of
men, and felt about as well as I ever
did.
All pain had vanished, th i cancer
on my lip healed, ami I was pronounc
ed cured. To those who are afflict
ed, and need a blood remedy, I urge
the use of B. B. B. as a wonderfully
effective, speedy and cheap blood
purifier.
Allen Grant.
Sparta, Ga., September 22, 1885
I saw Mr. Allen Grant, when be was
suffering with epithelial cancer of
under lip, aud after using the B. B.
B. medicine, as stated above, I find
him now almost if not perfectly cured.

Sparta, Ga., September 22,1885.
I often saw Mr. Allen Grant when
suffering from epithelioma, and from
the extent of the cancer thought he
would soon die. He now appears
perfectly well, and I consider it a most
wonderful cure.
