GEORGIA AND SOUTH CAROLINA. Something more than the ordinary and usual comity of states has always existed between Georgia and South Carolina. From the earliest days of struggle and vicissitude, when the wil derness and its wilder inhabitants were to be subdued, down to the pres ent piping times of peace and indus trial development, the two common wealths have been closely knit togeth er. This is in some measure attribu table to the fact that many of the best families of Georgia moved from South Carolina, the latter- being the older, colony. The Identity of Boll and cli- matic conditions, the similiarity of speech and thought, the community of political interests and the long boundary line, have all contributed to strengthen the ties. A call for as sistance from either has ever met a prompt response from the other. Dur ing the last two decades the call has come more frequently from the west ern than from the eastern bank of the Savannah, but now South Carolina has fixbd a tryst and bidden her sister to the meeting. Georgia has been the successful holder of three great Expositions and on each occasion South Carolina has been called' upon for aid and sympa thy, and each time has responded. ~ In the ancient city of Charleston South Carolina has builded the very crown and flower of all southern Expo sitions, and calls with confidence upon Georgia for a return of its good of fices in the past. April 16th has been set aside as "Georgia Day" at the Exposition, the governor has selected and proclaimed it, the Exposition au thorities have gladly accepted it, and now let all Georgians, by their pres ence at Charleston, ratify it. We owe it to our brethren to help to make their groat enterprise a financial suc cess; we owe it to our self respect to put our Beal of approval on such a dis play of nerve and enterprise as that of Charleston, and we owe it to our sec tion that we support to the full ex< tent of our ability so laudable anil creditable an enterprise, emanating as it does from our own* blood kin, in tended to build up our entire country and mark its progress. At. the prccent low railroad rates there are 100,000 people in Georgia who can afford to go to Charleston, get full value for their money and at the same time help to make a financial success of that which is unquestiona bly the most, perfect industrial and spectacular enterprise the south has ever known. Every town should have its committees of men and women ar ranging for an excursion to Charleston on Georgia Day. The cry has come out from Macedonia, let us go ovei and help them.

The bureau of engraving and printing has received instructions from the post-office department to preprare designs for an entire new series of postage stamps, says the Washington Star. - The question of a new series of stamps was discussed in the fall following the death of President McKinley, and at that time the impression prevailed that when the new set was ordered the por trait of President McKinley would surely adorn one of the denominations. Undoubtedly that was the plan at that time, but the department concluded to place the portrait of the late president upon a new postal card of unique design, and this remov ed him in a sense from the list of eligibles. However, a new face will ap pear upon one of the stamps, that uf the late President Harrison. In order that there might be a place for his portrait, at the same time giving the public the best service, a new denomination was created, a thirteen cent stamp. There will be practically no demand for a stamp of this value for domestic use, but for foreign use there is a place for ' this denomination. Thirteen cents represents the cost of sending a registered letter weighing not more than one-half ounce to any country within the postal union. Heretofor it has been necessary to use a five and an eight cent stamp. Mrs. Ben jamin Harrison has furnished the department- a photograph of Gen, Harrison which meets her approv al fer the purpose proposed. Aside from the introduction of Gen. Harrison’s face into the pos tal gallery of notables only one other change will be made in the personnel of the series. Commo dore Perry, whose faoo has adorn ed the ninety oent value from 1870 down to 1894 and the dollar from 1894 to present date, will be superseded|upon|the t dollar denom ination by abother famous sea- fighter, Admiral Farrnguib. Com modore Porry disappears perma nently. As at present constituted, the full set is as follows; One cent, green, face of Franklin; two cent, carmine, face of Washington; three oent, purple, face of Jack- son ; four cent, dark brown, face of Lincoln; five cent, chocolate, face of Grant; six cent,red brown, face of Garfield; eight cent,mauve, face of Sherman; ten cent.,face of Webster; fifteen cent, dark blue, face of Clay; fifty cent, orange, face of Jefferson;, one dollar, black, face of Perry; two dollar, sapphire, face of Madison; five dollar, dark green, face of Mar shall. The present series of postage stamps has been in continuous use for just twelve years, which is much longer than the life of the ordinary series. There has been some changes since 1890, such as substitution of the fifty cent for the thirty cent, the dollar for the ninety cent, addition of the two dollar and five dollar values and some slight changes of interest to stamp collectors, but the size, de signs and colors of most of the stamps are the same as in 1890. The poBt-office department has requestf d the bureau to take spec ial pains to make the series . par ticularly attractive and distinct ive. It is suggested that the Pan- American stanips were extremely satisfactory from an artistic standpoint, and the hope is ex pressed that the new set ^may be equally as fine specimens of Amer ican handiwork. It is proposed that everything in connection with the series shall be new. New designs for borders will be drawn, new shades of col or 'employed, and the.new stamps may be of different size and shape. The post-office department has re quested the bureau to secure, if possible, new portraits and better ones if obtainable. It is proposed that above the face the words “Series 1902” shall appear in small type, and below the name of the subject, with the date of birth and death. The ten cent special delivery stamps will be slightly changed in design, and the color will be orange instead of blue. It is interesting to note that since 1861 but two presidents have not been honored by placing their portraits upon a postage ►stamp, Johnson and Arthur. Cleveland, still living, not being eligible. It is not unlikely that when another new design for a postal card shall be adopted, and these designs change often, that Presi dent McKinley will take a place upon a postage stamp, possibly superseding Sherman on the eight or Webster on the ten. —«»-•-«- PROCLAMATION OF GOVERNOR 0 ANDLER.

Hemphill, manager of the Department of Promotion and Publicity, I have designated Tuesday, April 16th, as Georgia Day at the Exposition. “Charleston has the best and most tasteful Exposition buildings and grounds I have ever seen south of Philadelphia. The exhibits are very fine, and the people of Georgia will find it both pleasant and profitable to spend a day or two at least at the Exposition. Besides, South Carolina is our neighbor; tens of thousands of her Bons and daughters are now citi zens of Georgia, and we should give our encouragement to her enterprise by attending her great Exposition at least one day.

The question has been asked, “In what way are Chamberlain’s Stomach & Liver Tablets superior to pills?” The answer is: They are easier and more pleasant to take, more mild and gentle in ef fect and more reliable,as they can always be depended upon. Then they cleanse and invigorate the stomach and leave the bowels in a natural condition, while pills are more harsh in effect pud their use is often followed by constipation.
