To You
The Most important

Matter demanding attention at this
season is the condition of your blood.
Your health depends Upon it, for as
the quality and quantity Of the blood
vary, you are better or worse.
The blood conveys all the elements
whichgo to make up the organs, nerves
and tissues Of the body, and carries
away all dissolved, useless material.
Every bone, muscle, nerve and tissue,
lives upon what the blood feeds to it.
The whole world knows that Hoods
Sarsaparilla is the standard remedy
for making pure blood.
It possesses merit peculiar to itself
and by which it effects marvellous
cures even when other preparations
fail. When you buy your spring medi-
cine get the best, and that is

THE MAN WHO STOPS THE PAPER,

He must, in the first place, be
abnormally egotistical, or he would
never presume to suppose that he
could conduct newspaper great
deal better than men who have
spent a considerable portion of lite
learning the business.
He is successfully bull. headed, or
else he would recognize the right of
others to differ with him in matters
Of a public nature.
lie is narrow, because he vaiply
supposes that by stopping his paper
he will either discourage the line of
policy which the editor is inclined
to pursue, or SUPPRESS the paper by
the with drawal of the few paltry
dollars which he pays annually for
more than value received.
His judgment is bad because he
fails to realize the fact that with o
progressive and popular newspaper
the percentage Of "stops" is so ill,
fintesimally small in comparison
with the subscribers which come in
every day that they are hardly ever
noticed in the business office.
He is all in all, predestined fool,
or he would understand that no
newspaper can be run to please all
the people all the time, AMI he
would know that any newspaper
whose opinions ara worth noticing
cannot hope to assert views which
are in exact accordance With every.
body else's views.
Carried to its legitimate end, if
there were many like him in this
good cid werld, no newspaper could
exist for day, and the great Acha-
medan lever which moves the world
might fail to work because the full
crum of fair>minded, conservative,
liberal public opinion which up
holds it will have been removed

Of age, and are connected by a
piece of flesh almost four inches in
diameter, which is attached to each
just below his waist. This connect.

inches in length and so firm and un-
yielding that it keeps the brothers
standing face to face. Unlike the

From Southern Immigrant.
Alter tour years of actual expe-
rience in the cultivation of vegeta.
bles and small fruits in this coun-
ty, I am fully convinced that no.
where in the State, nor l believe in
the United States, can there be a
section found where fruits and veg
etables attain greater perfection.
TIE climate and soil seem to be
peculiarly adapted to the perfect
development of all kinds of fruit,
vegetables and grasses, especially
the two former.
The fruits that are best adapted
to this section are the apple, cherry,
peach, plum, grape, pear, raspber>
ry and strawberry.
In favorable seasons the peach
comes to greater perfection than in
any State outside of California, and
in some respects, especially in quail
ity, they are superior to fruit grown
there. The largest, finest and best
favored strawberries grown any,
where in the United States are pro.
duced in this county. Grapes grow
luxuriantly in this locality, and
when properly pruned and taken
care Of, mildew and kindred diseas-
es are never known. Every variety
does well, and all those who have
ventured into the business are find
ing it very profitable. This is not
a new land, whose productiveness is
untried, but its rich gray and mu.
latto soils have been producing
bountitul crops of fruits, grain and
vegetables for years, and any one
who comes here and exercises lit>
tie common sense, backed by Judi
cious use of the muscles, will never
have cause to complain of the nom
productiveness of the soil in this
locality nor the size and quality OF
the fruits and vegetables that they
can produce.
Not Only is the land in this coun-
ty superior to almost to any other
section Of the South for fruits and
vegetables, but no finer or better
land can be found for stock raising
and dairying.
All kinds of grasses grow here to
perfection; Timothy, Lucerne, white
and red clover, blue grass and all
other varieties. The land is we'll
watered all the year around from
numerous springs and small brooks
of the purest of waters.
This section is eminently situated
for winter residence and health
resort. The winters here are very
mild and pleasant. People who sui.
ter from the effects OF excessive cold
or any severe and extreme change
of the weather will find this a Mecca
of healthfulness and comfort. The
pure water, dry atmosphere and al
ti:ude, combine to make this section
the most desirable place to live as
an all>year-round home ofany place
in the world.
In fact, Marietta, the county seat,
lies in beautiful section of coun>
try, whose surrounding fertile lands,
natural wealth altitude and general
healthfulness, combine to make it
one of the most desirable places for
residence, farming, manufacture or
trade that is offered anywhere on
earth. GEO. B. NIGH.
