“There was a frog who lived in a spring,
He caught sweh a cold he could not sing.”
Poor, unfortunate Batrachian! In what a
sad plight he must have been. And yet his
migfortune was one that often befalls singers.
Many a once tuneful voice among those who
belong to the ** genus homo ™ is utterly spoiled
by ** cold in the head,” or on the lungs, or both
combined. For the above mentioned ** eroak
er” we are not aware that any remedy was
ever devised; but we rejoice to know that all
human singers may keep their heads clear and
throats in tune by the timely use of Dr. Sage's
Catwrh Remedy and Dr. Pierce’s Golden Med
feal Discovery, both of which are sold by
druggists.
Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy cures the worat
eases of Catarrh in the Head, no matter of
how long standing, while for ail laryngeal,
bronchial, throat and lung affections, Dr.,
Pierce’'s Golden Medical Discovery is POBi
tively unequaled. It cures the worst linger
ing coughs and builds up the flesh and
strength of those who have been reduced
by wasting diseases. It is guaranteed to
benefit or cure in all discases for which it i
recommended, if taken in time and given a
fair trial, or money paid for it refunded.

DAWSON, GA., WEDNESDAY, JUNE 571, 1889,
f RAIII AFTER SiX WEEKS. I
“A Ory Kay is Followed by a Wet June."
Crops--Proverbs.
} The farmers attending court this
| week are in good spirits, caused
i by the rain Jast Wednesday and
l Thursday.
| Before then there had heen |
nothing more than a sprinkle in
six weeks, and the farmers coms |
plained considerably about the
dry weather all through the month
, of May. |
. They say that the crops, espe- |
clal y cotton, suffered greatly oy,
,'w.(ter, though in some instances.
they were surprised at the green
“cobr and growth of corn. They
had become very apprehensive
about the growth of cotton. The
dry, hot days and cools nights pro
duced much damage.
There are many weather provs
erbs relating to May, but the ove
which will most interest the pros
proprietor of the scorched truck
farm and cotton acd corn fields is
that A dry May is followed by a
wet June.” Certainly May was
dry enough. It wasa windy May,
and there is a Portugese proverh
that “A windy May makes a fair
year.” ‘The Scotch have a saying
that
“A cold Vay and wind '
Makes tull barns and a pridy.”
There are quite a number of en
couraging proverbs which appas’
rently fit the month just gone by.
Some of them are given below: I
“It May will be a gardner he
will not dll the granaries.” '
“Look at yoor corn in May,
Aud you'll come sorrowing away; I
Look at it again in Ju_ne. l
And you’ll come singing another
tune.” ‘
*“A cold May enriches no one.” i
“A eoldand windy May will fill |
the barn.” l
“A dry Mayandaleaky June ’
Maie the furmer whistie a merry
tune.
Be 1t early, or be it late, ,
May will bring the cornquake.” I
The Germans have a provery |
that **A wet May means a dr_v!
July.” |
There is an Afrizan proverb :
that if a dead snake be hung up |
it will scon rain. Thisis aufcuunt-!
ed for from the fact that anakes ‘
hunt food beore a rain and are |
oftener met with and killed. Tuere ‘
is also a proverb that “the loud-:
er the frog the more’s the rain.” !
It is a remarkable coinvidence :
that during the drought the frogs |
held their peace and the sound |
ot the frog was seldom heard dur~
ing last moath, when they usually
croak all through the May night.
The alsence ot glow worms and
firefliecs was also noted laéti
month, showing that they we:s
also affected by the dry weuther,
as there are proverbs predicting
rain when they are seen in consid
erable numbers.
The peeuliar eolor of the ¢ky at
at evening and morning has for
centuries been watched, and the
weather predicted from the aps
pearsnce of the sunset,* The sun
sets during May were invariably
red, and as long as they continued |
g 0 dry weather was expected. It
is this observation which has led!
to the saying:
“Fvening red and morning gray
Will set the traveler on his way,
Bt ev'ning gray and moruning red |
Wil bring down rain upon his|
Lead.” {
This was a sign in the days!
when the Saviour was on the
earth, as may be seen by the nar«
mtive of St Matthew, who, in re<
latine the incideut of the Pharis
sees and the Saducees coming to
the Master and desiring him m‘
ghow them a siin from heaven,
wore answercd:
*When it is evening, ye sy it |
will be tuir weather; for the sky is
red. Aud iv the moring it will
he roul wenthier, tor the sky is red
ard towering, * * % Ye can dis
cern the fteea of the sky.-—Mat

THAT DRUKMMER'S GRIP.
The Crip Found Beside the Dead Horse
Eelonged to kir. Sutherland.
In the press of the state it was
announced that a buggy, contain
ing a drummer's grip, but ne
drummer, with the horse lying
‘dead. was discovered in Wilcox
county last week,
- Thedrummer, Mr. W. A. Suth~
erland, is now in Dawson. He is
from Milledgevilllee. He spent
®unday aight with the Sheriff of
Pulaski county and took an early
start Monday morning for Dennard
and McLeod's store, sowe sixteen
miles form lawkinsville.
Mr, Sullivan says just as he
reached the store thehorse reared
and fell back dead. Prior to this
he seemed pertectly well.
Noone was at the store and Mr,
Sullivan went to Mr. Dennard’s
house, some three-quarters ot a
mile distant.
While absent, some passer-by ob
served the buggy with the “grips”
in it, and the dead horse and the
absent traveler, But he is here
in Dawson—safe and sound.

Cancer. ‘
is a form of blood disease which 1s
not understood by the medical {
profession as to its real nature and '
~haracter, but it is evidently hered- l
itary in its nature. It may ace
cidentally developitself without any
predisposition or evidence of such l
existing poison. The knife or
caustic salves heretofore have been ‘
the socalled remedies tor it, hut all |
honest practitioners will tell you!
that this treatment fails to cure,
and only hastens fatal results. |
Thousands of cases of epithelioma
(skin) cancers, anda great many
cases of scirrbus cancers, have heen
entirely cured by the use of Swiit's |
Specific. It forces the poison out |

DAWSION'S NEED.
industries that Would Poy--You Want
These Enterprises--Will You
3 Help Secure Them?
Dawson is growing, and her
growth is rapid. The demand for
houses to rent greatly exceeds the
supply. New residences are going
up in every direetion, but in most
cases they are for the personal oc~
cupancy of the owuers, while the
I houses built for rent are engaged
long before their completion.
People are flocking to Dawson
from every direction, and they
have come to stay. This is a grats
i'ying state ot affairs, but to the
thoughtful citizen it brings a ques
tion as to what will be the outcome
of this great increase in population
should our means of affording em—
ploymeut wot increase in propor—
tion. Not all the people who
come here to live are capitalists,
and if they remain here they must
have some means of support,
They are wage-earners,and a very
desirable class of citizens. Daw
son wishes to keep what she has,
and it is necessary that she should
make some provision for those who
are coming or who desire to cone.
The only adequate solution ot this
problem will be found in the es
tablishment of manufacturing in~
dustries.
It is not necessary, however, to
advance arguments in favor of se
curing such industries, Ilvery in
tellizert citizan realizes their nes
cessity and desirability, The
question is not, “Do we want
them?” but “What do we want, and
how shall we get it?”
Mdny plants have been suggesta
edaud many plans proposed, all
requiring the expenditure of more
or less home ecapital. Nothing
pays as well as a successful man
utacturing establishment, and such
an expenditure would be a good
thing for the investor as we!l as
for the upbuilding of the city.
With practical men at the helm,
any one of the following industries
would pay in Dawson:
A COTTON FACTORY.
This enterprise is well worth
our serious consideration. Per
haps nothing could better advance
our interests than a good cotton
tactory. Terrell county’s acreage
ot cotton will compare favorably
with any county in the state, while
ghe carrics the bauner as far as the
yield per acre is concerned.
Fhere would be no difficulty in
ohtaining an abundance of raw (
material. This is an industrial ‘
enterprise in which the people of |
adjoining counties could be induc
ed to become actively interested.
BARRELL, BROOM AND BUCKET
FACTORY.
An establishment which would
cost less to build and operate than
the above i 3 a barrel, broem and
pucket factory. The material is
right aL our doorsin the greatest
abundance, and vearly the total
production would be used in this
portion of the state,
If a practical manufacturer can
be induced to come here by a
liberal stock subseription on the |
part of our citizens we can well ats |
ford to use our money and influ
ence to secure such an industry.
R
A Wise Man.
A poetic editor saye: **There we 3
a man in our town who was won
drous wise, for when he marked his
prices down he then did advertise,
And wheuo he saw his trade in
crease, with all hismight and main
he lowered his mark on every price
and sdvertized agaia. Aad when
' he advertised again Lis rivals loudly
l ewore,'o see folks rush with might
i;md main to patronize his store,
| And while they sat in sniitude and
' gaw him customwin,the man behind
i the counter stood and raked the
sheckels in. And when he raked
‘ the sheckels in and saw his fortune
% rising, he took a goodly lot and
| kept ou advertising. Each day
a generous sum he'd sink and de
‘mcnstrmed plain, the more one
pays for printers ink the zreater is
I the gain.”

fatal to ducks, ‘astening themselves

30 to 35 cents each, according to

bird, are sold for a quarter. Eggsj
are scarce and have been run up
to 20 cents a dozen. Generally at
this seasou they sell for just half
this price. Tt is possible that with

The New 00f.ton Bagging.
In the matter of the eotton bag
ging business, we see how a great
trnst ean defeatits ewn ends. Tue
Georgia farmers having been put
on notice that the ba_ging trust
was in operation,concluded to make
two mi'lion yards of cottonbagging.
This itselt would make a large
hole in the trust, but it bhas been
supplemented in a way that will |
give it extraordinary effect. The
South Carolina farmers h ave con
cluded to order the same amount,
and so have the Louisiana farmers.
This six million yards of cotton
bagging will make a big hole in
the estimate of the bagzing trust,
and there is no doubt that if the |
Alliance stands up to it promises
the jute manu acturers will find
themselves consilerably in the
lurch.
This is the natural outcome of an
outrageous attempt to rob the
cotton planters ot the south, and
any result that willsave themand I
destroy the truat will be welcomed}
hy the people in all parts of thcl
country. |
The manufacture of cotton bags
ging, which will take the place of
jute bagring, will establish new
industries and create a demand for
‘the low grades of cotton. With
these new fsctories in operation,
the farmers eau inereasze their acre
