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.

STENOGRAPH CO., 402 N. 3d STREET, - ST. LOUIS, MO- 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. Signed, J. T. Andrews, M. D. Sparta, Ga , September 22, 1885.
