Mr.. WATERMAN says, =


ga few months ago was taken down with a
severe sickness, which confined me to the house
quite long time, and much of the time was so
very lame as to be unable to walk, and my left
leg, from the hip to the toes, became monstrously
swollen, and suffered extremely from the con-
slant intense pains produced by so great infiam-
nation; Twas trying the various so-called cures,
all the time, and was under the treatment OF
physician seven weeks, but getting no substantial
relief. At this time an old time friend, police
officer, called upon me, and during our conversa-
tion informed me of the great benefit which he
had obtained by the use of Hunts Remedy, and
urged me to try it, as he considered it wonder
full medicine. / commenced taking Hunts Rem
edy, having very little faith that it would do
much in such stubborn case as mine, but my
doubt was soon dispelled, for before had taken
one bottle began to get better, the severe pains
disappeared, the swollen leg gradually decreased
in size, and was encouraged to continue the use
of the Remedy; and the improvement to my
health continues, my appetite is good. have re-
gained my strength, and 1 am now performing
again my duties as watchman at the foundry.
Every night / go up and down stairs more than
one hundred times, and am in good condition,
and feel that my recovery is due to Hunts REM
edy alone. My severe sickness and terribly
swollen leg was caused by the diseased state of
my kidneys, and think that it is a most valuable
medicine that will so speedily relieve and cure
such a severe case as mine. therefore most
cheerfully recommend Hunts Remedy to all
afflicted with Kidney Diseases, as know it to be
safe and reliable remedy"

Possum Hunting in oeosgia.
IAmcricus Recorder.l

In asbarbcr shop one day last week, while several gentlemen were waiting to be shaved, the conversation turned on good things to eat. Alter discussing vs- rious dishes, Joe Roney, who IS consid- cred connoisseur, and who had taken an active part in the discussion, said We'll, boys, you can all talk about nice things to eat, but the best thing in the world l ever tasted was possum, hedged in with brown gravy and sweet potatoes, with sugar on them" Mir Walt Furlow invited us soon after to go out to his plan- tation and assist in a genuine, old-fash- toned possum hunt, with an hour or two for the squirrels thrown in. The first nights experience was a tame one we got into dry piece of woods and struck but one possum track: but we got tha, possum.
 The next night, between and Q o clock. we started out. Down the road to ;he woods we went. stopping long enough 10 get several handfuls of good lighters. and then into the forest. Scarcely fifteen minutes had elapsed before bark was heard. succeeded few moments later by another. and then another. A trail had been struck. The voices of the dogs grew more frequent. until a, length long continuous bay from the leader announced that the possum was treed. A few moments walk brought us to him. but the scene around the tree baff,es de- scription. With bark after bark the dogs circled around. trying in vain to climb up the sapling. A few blows from the axe brought the tree dOwn, and the next mo- ment the possum was in the jaws of the dogs, forty feet away. He had started to run as soon as the tree fell. but the dogs ran too quickly. As soon as they had taste of him they were satisfied. It is re- markable, but possum dog will never eat possum or the bones of one.
 The same scene was repeated twice more, varied by long tramps through swamps, cotton and corn fields. The small hours of the morning had arrived when we went to bed, but we consoled ourselves with the thought of the feast we would have the next day
 On big dish in the centre of the table, brown and fat, the possum looked good but # was better than it looked. It was a meal fit for kings, but which anybody could have for the trouble of the hunt It was the first possum we ever ate.
 Joe Roney was right. There Is nothing that will beat possum.
