A M,TTER OF HARD WORK.

Few people, outside of those who
have gone through the mill, realize
the great amount of extra labor re-
quired to successfully issue paper of
the size of Sundays Es-especiaIly
In an Office that Is not metropolitan in
its equipment. During the days and
nights of last week the entire TIMES
force was r. CURED, by the exigencies
of the occasion, to do much extra
work, and, especially on Saturday, was
put TO the severest test of endurance
and capacity. The press, much of the
time with insufficient water power,
was in operation the entire week
with the exception of from to 7
o'clock each morning. Under such
strain, the very satisfactory results
were highly cOmmendable.
Mr.. !. S. Eagan, the foreman of
THE TIMES, wss particularly untiring,
and showed physical endurance that
was really wonderful. Mr.. Eagan
worked twenty hours a day for the
entire week, giving every detail of the
publication his personal attention.
THE TIMES gives to Mr.. Eagan no
small part of the credit for its special
edition. Very few men could have
been so implicitly relied upon in the
great stress of work.
Mr.. Eagan's assistants, while their
services were not necessarily of such
eXacting nature, gave most valued
extra assistance. The TIMES has a
force of which any paper would be
proud.

SUNDAYS IssuEITs MEANING

SUNDAYS IssUE-ITs MEANING.
The very favorable reception and
the many complimentary mentions
given THE TINES Midsummer Issue
are highly gratifying to the publishers.
In attempting the most extensive and
ambitious publication ever gotten out
in Brunswick, or in South Georgia,
the Brunswick Publishing company
felt that It's effort would be appreciated
by the citizens generally.
A live, progressive newspaper-one
which occasionally does something
out of the routine of mere daily issu-
ance that does not shut itself up in
clam shell of exclusiveness-that is
something more than certain num-
Der of pages of printed paper, having
no higher mission than to tell of the
dOiDgs of Mr.. Somebody and the short
comings of Mr.. Nobody-such news
paper is blessing and benefit to
any cOmmunity-a town helper, a
tOwn-builder, a promoter of general
prosperity. THE TIMES essays no
higher mission, but, with such
strength and scope as is given 1t, such
assistance and encouragement as the
public affords it, earnestly strives to
fulfill that mission which it already
finds before it. And, as indicating the
general tendency of The TIMES, It's is
sue of Sunday was but straw.
The Brunswick times. [volume] (Brunswick, Ga.) 188?-1900, 1897-06-29

this issue, deserves severe condemna-
tion. In such matters a newspaper
man should be extremely careful.
The correspondent shows his dense
ignorance by stating that the effects
we're shipped to Brunswick Shy ex-
press" on the Mallory steamer. This
ambitious reporter needs little edu-
cation in common sense.

Sometimes the most careful women
are the most careless. Many woman
bundles herself up, to keep out sick
ness-when she is neglectlng the very
worst sickness that can come to wO-
man, She allows slight disorder to
become worse, to slowly sap her vital
ity. The little PAIN and the other
slight indications of trouble seem to
her unimportant. She goes on with
increasing suffering, until life itself
becomes drag. Nervousness, "sInk-
ing SPELLS" digestive disturbances,
and fifty other complications may
arise from the arrangement of the
organs distinctly feminine. Over thir-
ty years ago, the need for reliable
remedy for so-called "female COM
plants" was recognized by DIR. r, v.
Pierce, then, as now, chief consulting
physician to the Worlds DIspensary
and Invalids' Hotel at Buffalo, N. Y.
He prepared DR.. Pierce's Favorite

fective remedy that has ever been used
for such maladies.
