Our streets are in apple pie order

The rumtilings of the wheels of Su
jervisor Brister’s 1107.00 vehiclo are

Many of our farmers complain of
ihort crops of cotton, but some of
i.hcm have made more than they cau
pick. What would they have done
with a full crop T
New streets are opening up and fine
residences are in course of erection at
Norfleld. Our twin sister seems to be
enjoying good health.
Messrs. Tyler A Busby are making a
straight run on the rice-cleaning busi
ness, but a little more brindle gravy
would give us better staying qualities.
The public school in this city was
never in better shape thau now, under
the skillful management of Miss Ed
wina Burnley, with Miss Eunice And

Mrs. J. A. Scarborough is visiting
her son Jimmie in Amite county. The
“ Parson " says if she stays much long
er he will have to go to the orphan's
asylum. He has issued a thanksgiving
proclamation, to be observed on the
day of her return.
We went out to Wellman the other
day to gather a little data 'for “ Saw
dust's" obituary, but was informed that
the report of his decease is all false,
and that he is still in pursuit of the
man in Lawrence county who claimed
to have made !* hales of cotton ou one
acre of land.
If our road contractors could have
beard Judge Powell's charge to the
grand jury the other day, they would
certainly do a little grading ou the
Harrison hill and move that stinking,
boggy mud-hole out of the road along
side of Fount Kyzar's fence.
We have traveled up and down in
the earth that is, wo have been to mill
a few times and have taken in a num
ber of circuit courts, hut we have nev
er been more favorably impressed with
a judge than with Judge Powell. It
was a bit amusing to see him put the
harness ou our esteemed friend Pan
Hickman as foreman of the grand jury.
The fight ou the public school ques
tion in this city is still on. When the
battle was waxing hot at Chickamauga,
an Irishman who had always been
noted for his bravery, started in haste
to the rear. The captain called to
him, sayiiig, “ Hold on there, Pat, you
are too brave a man to play the cow
ard.” Pat replied, “ He Jasus audit’s
better to run just a bit, Cap’n, than to
be a dead man all the balance of me
life.” So it is better some times to
bow to the inevitable, than to be a
dead man all the rest of our days.
Kidney disease Is the enemy we hay most to
fear as a result of the feverish restlessness of
our much-vaunted modern civilization. It is a
treacherous enemy, working out Its deadly ef
fects under cover of the most trilling symptoms.
The first indication of changes in the urine, fre
quent headaches, digestive troubles, should he

soreness that always appears in the advanced
stages, checks the progress of the disease, and
through Its excellent cleansing and regulating
effect in the stomach, liver and towels, it brings
tiack the strength and ruddy glow of vigorous

Miss Floreuee Furlough is visiting
relatives at Norfleld.
Dr. Watts was a visitor here last
week ou professional business.
It seems that the yellow fever epi

Mr. Albert Lucas aud Miss Ktiie
Ostein were married last Sunday at

our best wishes.
We are glad to note that the Farm

We are glad to note that Misses Mag

Rutland, after a tussle with the women
who interfered aud held Gus and Rich

dog that they caught him. It was
John Rutland who shot Ed Rutland
instead of Bill. Ed is here now at his
stepdaughter's and is totally blind.
Ou last Friday evening the infant
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Way, aged
about six weeks, was called away to
join the angel band in heaven. This is
the second one in two months that they
have been called upon to give up.
Weep not, fond parents, though they
are gone. Only think that you now have
two angels in heaven waiting beside
the pearly gate to welcome mamma
and papa home. The parents have our
deepest sympathy in their bereave
ment, though Jesus will sustain aud
take care of them.
When we read of a railroad wreck in
which a hundred people are killed, we are
filled with pity and horror. There are other
dangers in this life a thousand times greater
than that of the railroad wreck, only we do
not have them brought so forcibly to our
attention. Consumption does not kill a
hundred people at once in one train. It
does kill tens of thousands for every one
that is killed by accident.
If a sufferer will resort to the right rem
edy before it is too late, consumption can
be cured. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical
Discovery cures 98 per cent, of all cases if
taken in the earlier stages. It has main
tained this record for thirty years. Many
of those whom it has rescued from the
verge of the grave have permitted their
names, addresses, experiences and photo
graphs to be printed in Dr. Pierce’s Com
mon Sense Medical Adviser. This useful
book is free, and any sufferer who wishes
to investigate may procure it and write to
those who were once sufferers themselves.
For m paper covered copy send 21 one-cent
stamps, to coper cost of mailing only, to

Discovery ” is the great blood-maker and

Listen, young man : A few days ago there was a handsome young Coon
came in our store with a beautiful Hart, bought some apples and sat by our
wrought iron heater that we always keep hot on cold days for our lady custo
mers. After warming aud eating apples for a while the Coon became greedy, as
you know coons will do, and wanted to devour the beautiful Hart, when Super
visor Parsons solved the problem by prououuciug them both Coons, aud said,
you are no more twain, but one. When they exclaimed, which oue? he replied
Coons, of course. Then the Coon became good uatured, aud bought some
beautiful goods for his better half aud returned to his native heath near the
swamps of Hogue C'hitto, with his beautiful bride, with the assurance that he
would patronize Parsons & May as long as he had a Hart to feed and clothe.
By all means come to see us.
Yours truly,
PARSONS & MAY,
