NEED BOND ISSUE
TO MEET INCREASED
Never Austere
The term muck-raker gets thrown at us, but that's not us; we
■aim.to be cheerful people. A child could sit in our lap and
eat ice cream when we had our best clothes on—chocolate ice
cream at that.
Muck-raking is only a by-product; here's a crowd of us, calling
ourselves the United States, spending say $100,000,000 a
day. and 20% of it may be going to manufacture misery for
humans: Bribery, indigestion, injustice, child labor, and gen
eral cussedness.
• i
It’s too much money—we can’t afford it
When our economical streak is on, we’d like to see some of it
saved to spend for happiness. Just as if we saw a man cleaning
off a horse with sizzling boiling oil; instead of water, we'd say:
"Here, that oil cost money—besides, you're spoiling the horse.”
If you'll take a dip into the OCTOBER EVERYBODY'S
MAGAZINE, you’ll soon see that we don’t wear blue glasses.
You’re liable to bump over several mighty interesting things
and a laugh or two that will do you good. Two things you
mustn't miss: OWEN WISTER’S “ Keystone Crime,” and
Parker H. Fillmore's lovely little tale of Margery's success
when she started out to disgrace the family.'

BU\ YOUR STOVE THIS iEAR;
. PRICE GOES UP IN 1908
Do you need a new stove, or will you
nce<l one .within the next three months?
If so, now Is the time to buy, for the
Southern Stove Manufacturers* Association,
assembled In convention at Chattanooga
Thursday, adopted n resolution raising the
price on nil grades of stoves 5 per cent, ef
fective January 1, 1908.
According to stove manufacturers, and
thev srebdrne out by wholesale and retail
dealers, the Intense In the price of stoves
was made necessary bcausc of the In
creased price of the raw mnterlal and the
advanced cost of labor, but Just the
“Jones,” the consumer, will "pay
freight,” and he will commence paying 5
per cent more on January 1.
The Increase In the price of stoves will
not affect a few of the stove dealers 111
Atlanta for a while at least, because some
of them do not buy their stoves from man
‘•ufneturers who are members of the nssocin
tlon. In this class Is the Anderson Hard
f.ware Company.
“The. lncresiH
Mr. Anderson, • ~ - — ----- —
a member of. the .association. The price of
during * the past Tear. Fir- Iron has ad
vanced nearly 80 per cent during the past
twelve months uml the cost of lnl>or has
also advanced considerably.”
Although there are a few dealers who do
■not buy from members of tjie stove manu
facturers* association. It Is believed that'
they, too, will sooner or Inter 1*e affected
by the increase because the association
practically controls the trade In this state.
In reference to the action of the nssocin;
tlon, W. D. rnden, assistant sveretai-y of
the Beck A Gregg Hardware Co., said:
“I am somewhat surprised at the action
of the association. The Indications are
that pig Iron will la* cheaper by the first
of the year, nnd If that Is the case It ap
pears that the. association will have to
make a reduction In the price of stoves.
They may Intend, however, to keep up the
’prlc« regardless of where pig Iron goes.
•There Is some reason for the Increase,
per cent more for pig Iron this year .thnu
we paid In 1904.”
According to a well known local stove
manufacturer, the Increase In the price of
stoves Is absolutely Imperative if the man
ufacturer Is to earn meat and bread.
“Why, the thing Just had to l»e done.”
said he. “Pig Iron lias advanced nlnint 19
per ton In the Inst year, coke has gone np
from $2.25 to $5 per ton, the cost of lalnir
has udvnnced nnd there has licctr an ad
vance of 25 per cent In molding since the
flrst of April. 8o, there you are.”
8ympnthy for the manufacturer, howev
Is not likely to dotes the wise consumer
from purchastng'bls stove before January 1,

The Malleable girl is not careless, but then accidents will happen.
She is not worried, however, for she knows that twice the amount
of water will not crack the top of her range because it is thor
oughly annealed stove plate. A cake of ice can be placed on it
while the top i§ red-hot without in anywise Affecting thecasting.
Should any of this water run down onto the oven,, it will not firecrack as cast iron would under
similar conditions. Should an accident of a similar character happen to another range, it would
break and firecrack into a score of pieces. You will be glad to learn of other distinctive features of
this wonderful range.

ument at Canton, Ohio, on September
30,.la being mude by the frlenda of the
company who appreciate the slgnei
honor which has been conferred upon
the state by the Invitation extended to
this military organization to attend the
exercises.
Colonel Clifford Anderson, of the
Fifth regiment, nnd Messrs. Ed Peters
and W. L. Peel have constituted them
selves a committee to solicit contribu
tions from the citizens of Atlanta for
this purpose, and began Friday to
mail written requests, naklng those
who feel an Interest In Jhe matter to
signify it In a substantial way. Colo
nel Peel has been appointed treasurer
and all contributions will be received
by him.
It Is expected that $1,500 will cover
the expenses of the trip. Of this
amount. Captain L. D. White, of the
Gate City Guards, stated Friday, «we
thing like $635 has already been se
cured, nnd was subscribed as follows
City of Atlanta, $500; Claude C. Smith,
$15; K. C. Peters. $15; General A. J.
Scott, $5; Dr. I. T. Catron, $5;, Colonel
