New Life

is given by using BRowN's
IRON BITTERs. In the
Winter it strengthens and
warns the system; in the
Spring it enriches the blood
and conquers disease; in the
Summer it gives tone to the
nerves and digestive organs;
in the Fall it enables the
system to stand the shock
of sudden changes.
In no way can disease be
SO surely prevented as by
keeping the system in per-
feet condition. Browns
Iron BITTERs ensures per-
feet health through the
changing seasons, it disarms
the danger from impure
water and miasmatic air,
and it prevents Consump-

HER PHOTOGRAPHS.

:. 2 Il
She was standing near a window
When we saw her last, by chance,
And with nothing then to hinder
Us from getting fair glance.
Her hands were raised up gently
AS if blessing to bestow
While her eyes were fixed intently
On blooming world below.
Her face aglow with smiling,
Wore on it's brightest hue,
While in moments thus besuiling
Stood cur chosen preteadu.
AS she looked out like Venus 81
On q world where love is pure,
We swore that naught should wean us
From this bonny lassie o
Her glance was like the moonbeam,
As it softly steals by night
Thryagh d dark and gloomy world to seem
A vision of delight.
She is no ones only daughter,
With mint of wealth" to give,
Yet we love her, and she ought to
Say Eyes," and with lis live.
Her form is not the tallest
That in the to VII we gee,
Nor is her foot the smallest,
For tbs number three
She's all the same, "a daisy"
Who is worth mine of gold,
And is not a bit lazy
Nor cross, nor very old.

sent of the president absent from said meeting
on account of important business During
that day the Police Jury without my advice es-
tablished new voting precincts in the 9th Pc

mated may not give entire satisfaction to the
voters, and while do not object to new polling

convenient and proper places, and WILL use

Sir-The public school at Magnolia
Grove was opened on the 9Th inst, with
is pupils. This seoool is situated four
miles west of Big Cane, one-half mile
east Of the T. & p r.. r. in rich and
prosperous neighborhood. Prospects
are good for an attendance of thirty or
thirty five before the close of this
month. The dry weather has materially
shortened the crop, say one-half. In
this locality, as they are in all the rural
districts the people are for Nichols and
opposed to the present administration
succeeding itself. We want officers
who will be the servants of the people,
and execute their will.
