of "A happier land before him. Mr.Cum-
mings lived in GraysOn county, about
one mile from this place, and has been
for many years, well known and
highly esteemed citizen of this neigh
bOrhOOd. His remains, accompanied by
his family and other friends, were taken
to the graveyard near Penuel Eskridge's,
in GraysOn county, and there buried in
the presence of large number Of his
distressed relatives and old friends
cherished companions of his childhood
youth, and early manhood. Mr.. Cum
mings was a loving husband, a kind
and afiectiOnate father, and a good
neighbOr. His death will be deeply
felt in the community. He leaves
wife and eight children, to mourn his
loss, may the Lord soften their grief,
console their hearts, and enable them to
say, 'the Lord gave and the Lord hath
taken away, blessed be the name of the

About four o'clock, Friday morning,
MIR. Franklin Porter, while ON his way
to John Cummings, was thrown from
a horse and was badly hurt, receiving
a fracture in his left leg, Mr.. Porter was
by himself, at the time he was hurt, and
after calling for help for sometime, Tom
Hopper and Squire Green, went to his
relief On examination, they found
that one of his legs was badly broken,
one of the bones projecting through the
skin an inch or more. Medical aid was
summoned, and in a short time, he was
taken home.
Miss Alverla Young, left few days
ago, for her home, in GraysOn, after
stay of two weeks with Mrs. Green.
She made several friends during her
visit here.

woman must possess wan, spirifuelle
face and figure of syiph-like proper

able bellies it is considered a special COM
pliment to be spoken of as frail and deli

delicate face and petite figure are very
different from the pale and disease
stricken faces that meet US in the city
thOrOughfares, look out from the luxu-
RANT carriages of wealth, and glide Ian
guidly through our crowded drawing
rooms. Ifdisease was questionable as
il ought to be, not a lady in the land
but would take every possible precautiOn
tOseeure the fresh blooming face and well
rounded figure that only health can
give. Ladies should remember that as
much as gentlemen may profess to adj
mire the face and form paled and ema-
ciated by disease, when they choose
wife they prefer a blooming, healthful,
buoyant-spirited woman DIR. Pierce's

as we can learn the company intend to
nut the route between the mouth Of
