Why They Don't Marry
The Roston, La., Gahgraph says
" one" of the strangest- thiugs. about that
. town is that there are so many mar
- r??geab?e people- and so little marry
" ;L $ogc goings Oi* in it, and wants to know
? : 5Feome plan cannot be hit upon by
which the marriage ball can be put in
motion. To this inquiry of the Cali
graph, ihe Rayne Signal glibly sug
1 ageste a remedy by saying 'persuade
h -N tbe^youn?g women to give up reading
nove?s and other like amusements,
and go to work,and learn how to cook
and - keep house, and we guarantee
: that the matrimonial ball will begin
' to roll with astonishing rapidity.
-. There is too much sentimental gush
i and not enough practical common
sense ?bbut the marrigeable young
women <>f to-day/ This is all wrong,
and we "fofiy agree with the New Or
leans Picayune that 'the fault is not
with the girls but with the men. It
is sad to see the alleged stronger sex
V Regenerating -to that degree that
yonng. men are afraid to ask the-girls
to marry them. Women were made
for love and the purest and best in
stinets of their nature is towards mar
riage-- If they are sentimental it is
because they, have true and warm
hearts* Let b?t th? right men make
their appearance, an(f how quickly
w?Tthe girls-give up the imaginary
ibr^the real, bow readily will they
drop the sentimentalities of story
book lov? for the worthy and ' holy
-career of wif??iood. A good woman
t? does ?iot 8sk much beyond the iove
of a brave and honest man who can
make a fair living for them both.
; Style and show go but a little way in
a woman's estimation when her heart
~ is engaged. But women hate cow
ards and when they find men afraid to
encounter the duties and responsibil
ities bX.marriage, no wonder that -the
most trivial story book is preferred
to toeir society. If the men will
only do their duty there will-be no
complaint of the girls. They are ali
.right, and far too good for the men
wbo are afraid to marry. In such
I case the girls will do well to remain
m?gie. ^ It is Ibetter than towe,d a
moral poltroon.' These are our sen
timents to ih? millionth :part of an

^Treatment of Hog Chol?ra.
Eor the .benefit of all whom it may
concern, I will give my recent expe^
, T?enc? with hog cholera, how I got
th? remedy, the circumstances con
nected with it and the result of treat
. ment. About.the first of last Novem
: i>& my hogs were dying ' daily with
cholera? In fact, up to that, time 1
had lost every oue of my yoang pigs
and nearly all of my younger hogs.
_ I bad my meat bogs shut up and sep
'? -arated eutirely from those that were
infected with the disease, but very
-soon those commenced to get sick and
. die, not one that was taken sick recover
ing, but dying in the short space of
ten hours. While all this destruction
was going on, I received my Novem
ber number of the Southern Cultiva
tor, and in searching through its col
umns I came upon the following cure
?br hog cholera : *The Dawson, Geor
Journal states that Mr. Bob Mur
ray, one of the most reliable planters
of Calhoun county, told of a sure cure
for hog cholera that be was using.
Several years ago Mr. Murray's hogs
were- dying in large numbers with
-cholera, and her -checked its ravages
by mixing with their food a moderate
quantity of soda. A few days ago
cholera again attacked his hogs, and
lie lost twelve in one * /. l?e at
once began giving soda and he has
not had a hog to die since.'
- .While reading the above in the
5 Cultivator, my wife came in and told
Ine that two more of my large meat
hogs had just died and three more
were sick, in less than fifteen min
utes after receiving this information
my hogs were eating ground food
with a liberal quantity of soda and
salt mixed together. The three sick
hogs just mentioned were not s? bad
but that they ate some and got well.
For ten days following I gave all my
hogs a liberal quantity of the mixture,
at first twice a day ; I have contin
ued to give it occasionally up to this
time, and now ? am able to state,
with pleasure, that I have not had a
sick hog on my place since giving
them the fiist dose of soda and salt
mixture ; now over two months ago.
I will further state that having been
so fortunate as to see this cholera
cure in the Soulhern CuUicator and
having tested its virtue fully, I do
not hesitate to say that I consider it
worth more to me than twenty times
the subscription price that I paid for
jrour excellent farm journal.

Albert Gaerry Has a Suit.
Albert Gaerry. who lived in Samter
for some time and who is well known
to many of our citizen?, is about to get
into a lawsuit in Washington. The
JJatchct says aboat this affair:
"In Belfs studio, on Pennsylvania
stesse, there is an artistic life-size por
trait of the first lady of the land. It is
. the ereatioa ot* Albert Guerry, the fa
mose ?albero artist. Experts say it is
a per?eeT?ikeoess of Mrs. Cleveland in
face, form xsd feature. Mr. Guerry,
although impecunious, is a most remark
able artUt. He has painted portraits of
Caihouo, Hampton, Hartranft and other
profitent figures in American politics.
There is a squabble between Bell, in
whose studio the portrait was painted,
and Gaerry, the artist. Bell claims
that the picture w-is painted under his
super vision, and that he, perforce, is
the first owner. * Guierry^^^^4'e^in.<1
ter claim that lie, oe?tig",we"?t??s?^nt?t.j
of necessity h-ave a- Jar^ ^o^ioiTof [in
terest in the portrait of Mrs; Cleveland.
On a failure to agr^c both sides engaged
counsel.
Judge Mackey, the. eminen't ^South
Carolina jurist, was engaged bj Mr.
Guerry. Mr. Bell engaged ;tw>?Jawt
yers of renown. Judge .Ma?key isajfs
"Guerry is the -legal owner, of. .the pic-;
tore, and we will serve a writ of reple
on Bell to* recover it."
This is an interesting .case and ,the
result of the suit will be auxiously
watched.

THEIR PLANS AND METHODS.
The aitnjof true.statesmamship and civ.Hi?a-;;
tionris to secure tr*T happiness of -the people.;
Nothing contributes so much to that end as
the^ certainty that our dependent family^ after
oar death, will be beyond actual want. It
has been a problem heretofore^ bow to secure
psiich a competency., and this has been-" true
especially with that class who are unable by
reason of their restricted income,' to- accumu
late sufficient .to make, a safe provision for
their families. This problem has been solved,
by the Knights of Honor. Every moral citi
zen who is in/good health may ^nter the
order, and no<matferTiow4?m-tted?h? resour
ces, may provide from one to two thousand
dollars for ???s familyinLcaseioftjs de?th:'.*t
The Knights.of Donor is^rictjy a fraternal
order and not'a Life ^InsuraOce-Cornpany or
Association. T?ieif ?hbdidiffer from old
line Life Insurance as well >as from so. - called
Assessment Companies. Uniting in its plans
and system all the features of such orders as
the Masons, Odd Fellows; Knights of Pythias
and -the like, it .has added.a protective feature
of -a. ^w$.-or pn??ttous?n<??do^?i4 benefit,
which is. paid on the death, pi "every member
in good ; standing. tOTisUcb members -of^bis
fatnily-or depeode^v'ae lie .may have-desig
nated by name, according, to the laws of the
order. While it is* a secret society, the secret J
part only consists of some pass words and !
signs, to enable them to guard against impos-1
tors. - -
No oath is administered to initiates only
a promise upon honor is exacted to live the
life of a good citizen..,. NeHbertis it a reli
gious* or-political society ;? bota subjects are
carefully kept out of the lodge room. Jew or
Geatile, Catholic or Protestant are' alike re
spected and made.welcome. - Tbe most devoted
? churchman will find nothing in-ttrcoiiposi
tiou to ' the" strictest 'loyalty to his
creed ; it "is"also' patterned after'our own dem
ocratic institutions ; .every member has a
voice in its management, and is eligible to
every office. Every member is compelled to
belong to some subordinate lodge, rand while
bis presence at its meetings is desirable and
most beneficial to himself and to the order,
yet no law exists to compel him to attend.
Each lodge is eotitled to representation in the
Grand Lodge of its State, ?nd each Grand
Lodge hits from two to more Representatives
in the Supreme Lodge.
In short, the representatives of the su
bordinate lodge form the Grand Lodge, and
the representatives of the Grand Lodge con-.
stitute the Supreme Lodge. These vnrious
bodies make the laws of the order and shape,]
its policy ; the machinery 4s so nicely adjust
ed that the voice of every , member, through
its representative is potent ic shaping whole
some and just legislation.
There is no preferred class, no close Bo?rd
of Director?, nor any chance for peculation or
rascality ; the officers of the vai tous lodges,
subordinate, grand or supreme, are but the
instruments to do the will of tbe members;
their duties are clearly defined and their
oowers, so called, strictly limited.
No money can be expended except its pay
ment is voted by a majority of the members,
?od in the Supreme Lodge as well as the
Gi'and Lodges it must first have been author
ized by a vote of these bodies, and each item
must receive the sanction of the Finance Com
mittee.
The Supreme Treasurer is ander heavy
bonds. The money of the order must be and
is deposited to the credit of the Supreme
Lodge in solvent banks and can only be
drawn on tbe joint order of the Supreme Re
porter and Treasurer, and the bank is required
to make daily reports of receipts and dis
bursements to the Supreme Dic'ator, who is
the president of the order. The Finance
Committee baa the right at any time to ex
amine the books, and is compelled to do so
at stated periods. Whenever a call is made
upon members to contribute to th? widow
and orphans' fund, a full statement is made
how the money therefor collected ha3 tieen
expended, and this is sent to every lodge and
read out in open session. The, money to pay
death benefits is contributed by the members
to the Supreme L^dge. contribution of a
fraction over a cent raises a find lar^e enough
to pay a benefit of Two Thousand dollars;
but these assessments are rande i:i ij.stailments
of one or two dollars at -.t time, in order to
save expense, and an asses?:nerit of two dol
lars upon each member realizes enough to
pay the death benefit to 140 deceased mem
bers. What able bodied man is there in ihe
land who is not able, by a payment of from
one or two dollars a month to secure to his
family from one to two thousand dollars ?
The death benefits are paid to those entitled,
in from fifteen to thirty day? after the death

Why fcis-thatthree bottles of B.B- are sold

need take our word, but simply ask the drug

witnesses. Six houses in Atlanta are buying
B.B B'in five and ten gro'ss lots, and some of
them buy as often as every two months. Why
these unprecedented sales bere at home with
