was up-to-date; dinner superb.
Talks were made by Dr. Apple

the afternoon. Taken all in all the
day was pleasant and profitable,
ancl the collection taken to buy an
organ was satisfactory and credit
able to all concerned. . . . Get
ready for the Fourth at Johnson

Smith-Chrisman.
Miss Agnes Gholson Chrisman,
one of Brookhaven’s most cul
tured and loveljr Christian ladies,
was married last Wednesday to
Rev. Charles Freeman Smith, of
the Texas Conference. The cere
mony took place at the home of
the bride’s uncle, Dr. John T.
Butler, and was performed by
Rev. Chas. W. Crisler. Mr.
Smith was the pastor of the Meth
odist church at this place some
years ago and is remembered by
many of our older residents as a
gentleman woithy of all praise
and honor; and, possibty, of the
prize he has won in his gentle
bride. No lady in all this coun
try stands higher in the estima
tion of those who know her, than
does Miss Chrisman in the hearts
of Brookhaven people; and to her
and the worthy gentleman with
whom she will walk henceforth,
there go out unlimited good wishes
for future happiness and pros
perity. Our felicitations go out
to them—our sympathy to the de
voted mother and grandmother
left behind.
It was a pleasure on yesterday to
visit the new farm and home of J.
E. Sasser about a mile and a half
west of this city on the Ked
Star road. Although but lately
settled, Mr. Sasser has so improv
ed his property that it is inspiring
to look upon. He has a com
modious and comfortable resi
dence, splendid outhouses, a wind
mill, fine Jersey cows and a herd
of Poland Chinas that are fatten
ing for market. His patch of
artichokes and sorghum and grow
ing corn foretells the kind of meat
Mr. Sasser will furnish his cus
tomers this fall. His farm is a
model one; and with his estimable
wife, his three sons and two daugh
ters together with his flowers,
his poultry and his family gai
den ne should be among the hap
piest men in Lincoln county.
L. J. Laird, of the firm of
Laird Bros., of this city, was mar
ried on the 18th to Miss Ellen
Dungan, of Hazlehurst. There
was a bright smack of lomance
about the affair, Mr. Laird and
his fair bride having been mar
ried in a buggy at the Copiah
court house. On the principle
that “all is fair in love and war,’.’
this proceeding was perfectly
proper. Anyway, Mr. Laird is
among the happiest of grooms
and the young couple have the
best wishes of all their friends.
We would like to see Lincoln
county petition for at least one
of the Farmers’ institutes for this
summei.
Excess
Of Smoking Affected
My Heart
So I Had To Sit Up
To Breathe.
Dr. Miles' Heart Cure
Cured Me.
There is nothing that has a more deleter
ious effect upon the cardiac or heart nerves
than the excessive use of tobacco. Fain and
tenderness around the heart, an oppressive
feeling in the chest, choking sensation in the
throat, discomfort from sleeping on the left
side and smothering spells at night when the
sufferer has to sit up in bed to breathe are
the most common symptoms of a weak heart.
Smokers who feel these symptoms and who
do not understand their meaning should be
warned in time, by the following experience:
“I was greatly troubled with an affection
of the heart, due I think to excessive smoking.
On writing to yon for advice I was directed
to begin a course of treatment which in
cluded Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure, Dr. Miles'
Nervine and Nerve and Liver Pills, together
with bathing, etc. I faithfully followed the
directions given and am pleased to say that
my cure is complete and permanent Be
fore beginning the use of your remedies I
was so nervous I could not keep my hands
still and suffered greatly from severe pains
around the heart Many times at night 1
would be forced to assume a sitting posture
to get my breath, and for the time being it
would seem as though my heart had stopped
beating. From the splendid results achieved
in my case 1 can cheerfully recommend Dr.
Miles’ Heart Cure, Restorative Nervine and
other remedies to all sufferers from heart or
nervous troubles.”—Youn truly, Elijah

His Last Hope Realized.
[From the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont.]
In the first opening of Oklahoma to
settlers in 1889, the editor of this paper
was among the many seekers after
fortune who made the big race one fine
day in April. Daring his traveling
abontand afterwards his camping npon
his claim, he enconntered much bad
water, which, together with the severe
heat, gave him a very severe diarrhoea
which it seemed almost impossible to
check, and along in June the case be
came so bad he expected to die. One
day one of his neighbors brought him
one small bottle, of Chamberlain’s
Colic. Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
as a last hope. A big dose was given
him while he was rolling about on the
ground in great agony, and in a few
minutes the dose was repeated. The
good effect of the medicine was soon
noticed and within an hour the patient
was taking bis first sound sleep for a
fortnight. That one little bottle
worked a complete care, and he can
not help bat feel grateful. The season
for bowel disorders being at hand sug

The wedding that celebrated the

SCHOOL NOTES.
(Written from the University Normal.)
The Normal and Summer School
now in progress at the State Uni
versity, both in point of numbers
and in the work done, is making
a record far ahead of any thing
ever done in the State before.
The management has employed
a large corps of instructors and
lecturers; men and women in
some instances of more than na
tional reputation, ripe in scholar
ship, broad in their views and
earnest in their work.
This means great things for the
future of Mississipi. Here insti
tute conductors are being trained
for their future summer work.
Separate district and high school
principals and also county super
intendents are being trained for
supervision and school manage
ment. The- teachers of these
schools are being better equipped
for the class room.
Later on announcements will be
made as to the time of holding a
two-weeks’ institute.
Now, the county superinten
dent of Lincoln county feels that
tho children of the county are en
titled to the best instruction that
can be had. This the trustees of
the schools should give them. I
believe that it can be said without
fear of contradiction that the
teachers of Lincoln have had more
encouragement to improve them
than the teachers of many coun
ties. Yet, there are still a few
teachers in the county who never
attend any teachers’ meetings,
county institutes nor any
other training schools. The re
sult is that the school where these
teachers help are without any sort
of system, no improvements have
been made on their school build
ings and they are usually without
representation in our county con
tests or in any thing else that
looks to the improvement of our
schools. The time has come to
call a halt on this sort of thing,
and the trustees of schools are
earnestly requested to co-operate
with the county superintendent in
securing first class teachers for
the coming term. Summer term
will open fith.
