We call attention to the new advertise

drug store in Bolivar. The medicines are
highly endorsed, and those afflicted might
do Wei to give them a trial.
Capt. P. b. Wilkinson, the jolly passcn-
ger conductor on the l. C. r.. Il. was the
fortunate winner Of fine breechloading
shotgun in a rattle this week The Captain
is one of the most popular men on the road,
and has many friends who will rejoice at
his good fortune.
Many farmers Of Hardeman county have
surplus Of seed potatoes, seed oats, etc,

to buy should purchase from their neIghbors
when it is possible.

on the c. L. r. at Malesus, Saturday
night and badly injured. lie was brought

one of the hest hotels in the country, and is
run in the best style. The house is coHye-
nient for business or pleasures, and rates
