The lawn party given on last Friday evening at the young ladies' dormitory of the Fitting School was in every respect a success. The young ladies who are visiting iu our city were the guests of honor. The number of couples was large, and the enjoyment was just so much as could be enjoyed by the guests. " Progressive Hull Gull" was played out on the lawu under the light of the moon. This was enjoyed greatly. After the game had ended the prizes were awarded to Miss Nell P. Evans and Mr. Joe Kinard. Delightful refreshments were served as the moou was ou the wane. Some time later the happy couples weuded their ways homeward. An Afternoon Tea. Mrs. Geo. F.

L. A. KLAUBER. Tobacco Factory Meeting. . There will be a meeting in the town ball Friday afternoon, the 14th, at five o'clock, for the purpose of discussing the a advisability of locating a smoking 1 tobacco factory in Bamberg, and every c citizen interested in the welfare of the t town is earnestly urged to attend. It may be tbat at tbis meeting steps will be taken to organize tbe company, and raise the required capital stock. Mr. Young made a success of his factory, even if it s was on a small scale, aud with increased ( capital and facilities there is 110 reason ? why a factory here would not pay hand- ? soniely. We need to have a diversifies- v Lion of enterprises, so let there be a large c attendance of our business men at the a meeting. <i Mr. Wroton Married. jj We take the following from the Den- s mark correspondence of the Times. As c Mr. Wroton has been The Herald's cor- s respondent at Denmark it is easy to see j, why this interesting bit of information u concerning himself was not sent to us by 0 him: \ "On July 23 Rev. W. H. Wroton, of Den- a mark, was married to Mrs. Minnie Brew- e >ter, of Cherokee, Ga., at the residence of h ;he bride. Rev. C. M. McClam performed j he ceremony. Mrs. Wroton was editor of 0 i papei for some years and understands 0 ;he management of a good country paper. e She is very intelligent, industrious, ? iffable and handsome. Her father, Judge q E. Lovingood, is one of the most promi- C( lent farmers ,iu Georgia.

C. Folk, of * 5am berg. y It is consigned to Pope & Fleming who lave received the first bale for the last a hree years. This harbinger of good times is a ^ jolden harvest for the southern farmers . vas garnered at Bamberg, S. C., and herefore hails from real Augusta ^ erritory. The arrival of the first bale is always . m event of great importance in Cotton .g tow and the city at large. When it "" irrives the factors, clerks, weighers, :amplers, shippers, niggers, dray horses p ind everybody and everything connected vith the purchase and sale of the fleecy p hrow off the lethargy of the summer md forget that tired feeling which has . >ossessed them for four or rive mouths, o rhe banker who has been putting out the :oin of the realm for months in order hat the crop might be made, gets down lis ledger and begins to con over the j irincipal and interest he is about to get >ack after so long a separation.

The news boy calls his paper , ouch louder in the morning and as the . >oet would say, "the whole world seems Pi" E The first bale of this year's new crop to each this citv was grown by H. C. Folk, X >f Bamberg, ?. C., a prominent merchant f md farmer. This bale enjoys the disinction of having been grown in strictly Augusta territory. Heretofore the first . )ale has usually come from one of the ower counties of the State and was ushed to Augusta because the nearby . narkets had already received their initial ? >ag. This year however, the first bale ^ or this market was not onty grown in his territory, but it is in reality one of e he very first bales to come to light in . ;ither South Carolina or Georgia. " As usual the bale will be auctioned off . it the exchange to-day at noon. Just who .. will be the auctioneer has not been de- , :ided. Senator J. Rice Smith, who is a rery handy man on such occasious and . vho has auctioned off the first bale several imes, is not in the city. Some good talker, " iowever, will be secured, one who can V :oax the right kind of a price from the :otton men, for it is tradition, history and teveral other things that cannot be broken ^ hat the first bale must bring a good big * srice. _ While the first bale means business and s always the source of great joy, the coton men were happy before it arrived. The reports of the last few weeks have o jeen such as to infuse enthusiasm among p he handlers of the crop. Yesterday a si reporter for The Chronicle talked with Vlr. J. L. O'Dowd and fouud him very muck encouraged about the prospects. He said his firm had received the very best sort of reports from all parts of this sec- i\ Lion. These advices indicate that the irrop will be from ten days to two weeks b late, but it will be full. Especially are the reports from this neighborhood in South v Carolina encouraging. He thinks that b if the present weather holds out for a few a weeks longer the crop around the Augusta territory will be equally as large as those v of former years and a "bumper crop" may v he the result for this viciuity.?Augusta i Chronicle, Thursday, August 13.

The children, God bless them, are the buds and flowers of our homes. Without their prattle and hearty laughter, our homes would be desolate. They should ever be carefully tended in childhood and youth, if we expect them to ripen into perfect men and women. In the home and at school, the children have their times of ill health and suffering. We often note the pallid and bloodless cheeks, heavy eyes, nervous movements, and twitchings of limbs and muscles. They complain of headache, drowsiness, weariness, dyspepsia, and indigestion. All such symptoms and ailments mean that the seeds of disease will have a fast and firm hold, unless proper measures are taken to restore a perfect condition of health. Thousands of wise and prudent parents have made their children happy, healthy, and vigorous by giving them nature's medicine, Paine's Celery Compound. In many severe and complicated cases, Paine's Celery Compound has restored health when the little ones were given up by physicians. If your dear ones are not as hearty, strong, and rugged as they should be, try the health giving virtues of Paine's Celery Compound. It makes and keeps the children well.
