The WINTER at last has given way to
genial Spring and all nature seems to
be smiling under the influence of the
change. The wheat ne, err gave great
er promise of more abundant yield
the corn looks healthy, the gardens
flourishing and the forests are clothed
and beautified by the many colored
blossoms. Nature seems to be doing
her part right nobly; but man, especl-
ally those in and around this vicinity,
with few excoptions) are not coming
up to their part of the work. Why
not initiate nature ?-why not take
counsel from her instructions ?-why
not paint your houses, whitewash your
pallngs and improve your sidewalks?
Why not make home attractive? and
by so doing consult your own interest,
both pecuniarily and socially. One
barrel of lime applied in season may
prevent your languishing with fever
during the Summer months. Paint
your houses and you will give evidence
tofthe world that you love your wives
and children and desire to make them
happy-te preserve their hearts in its
freshness and to prevent the mildew of
affection. Make your homes lovely
and you will insure your own happi-
ness, and it will give you courage to
Dattie With adverse fortune. It is the
love OF home and it's inmates that nerves
the soldier to buckle on his arnor-to
march forth to battle and to stand with
iron nerve against shot and she'll. Vet
we would not foster selfishness-we
would not have you strike ont for YOUR
self in this sea of trouble, Indifferent To
the sinking wrecks that founder around
you, oblivious of everything except
self and selfish qualification. We like
public spirit. We owe something TO
our neighbors and should use every eff
tort in our power to advance the public

GENTLEMEN For several months past,
| my hair which is naturally thick and of ra-
pid growth, has been coming out 10 fast on
every application of the comb, that had be-
gun to regard premature badness as a me-
cessity from which could not escape, how
ever disagreeable its intliction. While en-
deavoring to reconcile my mind to this fate,
was recommended to try your SANCOMA,
or Food for the Hair; and having great faith
in your preparations, procured bottle and
submitted 1T to fair experiment. l follow
ed the directions closely, and began to expe-
rience the benefits of the Preparation in less
than the space OF a week. My hair has stop
ped coming out entirely, and the most viJyor-
Gus use of the comb and brush but rarely de-
tatcheS a single strand.
Being naturally grateful for the benefits
which Sancoma has conferred upon me,
furnish this certificate unsolicited and with
great pleasure.
Respectfully,

CIRCUIT CouRT. THE Spring term oil
this Court convened on Monday, the
3rd instant, Judge Shackleford presid-
ing. Shortly after the opening of the
Court Grand Jury was called, of
which Capt. j. w. Scott was made
foreman. The jury was charged by
the Judge IN few very lucid and we'll
timed remarks, and after a short retire
ment returned into Court making no
presentments, which certainly speaks
well for the morality OF our County,
Owing to the fact that we have no Sher-
itf in this county, no petit jury nor wit
heSses had been summoned. aad the
consequence was that very few of the
law issues were tried. A road case
consumed the time of the Court Tor
nearly-two days, and resulted finally
in his Honor rever sing the judgement
Of the County Court, which judgement
was in favor of establishing the road. =
The road will now not be established
unless the District Court, to which we
hear an appeal will be taken, shall re-
verse the decision of Judge s.
Another case on the civil docket and
which was tried was that of Daniel vs..
Bond, in which the plaintiff. claimed
several hundred dollars as due by GER
tain bonds. A great deal of evidence
was heard by the jury and verdict of
more than two hundred dollars was fl
nally rendered In favor of the defen-
dant-rather striking Illustration of
the fact that those who go to law may
sometimes suffer very materially there
by. We do rot wish to be understood
as expressing any opinion touching the
merits of this case, for we did not hear
the evidence; but it certainly looks a
little strange that a nan should claim
several hundred dollars of another and
then be mul,hed him self for almost that
amount.
There was very little other business
On the law docket of an interesting ma
ture transacted. The Chancerv dock

SAN COMA
/ FOOD FOR THE HAIR

A FOOD FOR THE HAIR.
THIS preparation is intended solely
l. for the purpose of arresting the falling
out of the HAIR and renewing its growth, by
producing healthy action in the scalp. 1t
makes no pretentions to restoring grey hair
to its original color, or to curing hereditary
badness. Generally, both loss of hair, and
grey hair result from a diseased state Of the
hair bulbs or ROOTS Not receiving the pro-
per nourishmeht, the pigment contained
within the tubes, and which gives color to
the hair is lost, and nothing has ever yet
been discovered to restore it.
All that is claimed for Sancoma is that it

Produced by want of food. BY furnishing
this food the hair is saved from death, and
grey hair prevented.
We confidently recommend the Sancoma
to persons with light hair and others, who
object to using the countless hair dyes offer
ed for sale over the country. In addition to
its properties as q Powerful Tonic 1t is the
most elegant Hair Dressing known, keeping
the hair soft and pliable. 1t contains no
