• MONTH OF MAY.
Some of Its Legendary Lore Briefly
Told.
• In olden times the first day of May
was celebrated as a festival. If our
calendars were right, the first day of
spring would coincide with the 21st
of-March, the day on which the sun
crosses the equator at the vernal equi
nox. Three centuries ago the Ist of
May was a holiday for all clasies in
most parts of Europe. An old histo
rian thus describes the popular cus
toms: “On the Ist day of May the
juvenile part of both sexes were want
to rise a little after midnight and walk
to some neighboring wood, accompa
nied with music and the blowing of
horns, where they break down
branches from the trees and adorn
them with nosegays and crowns of
flowers. When this is done' they
return with their booty homeward,
about the rising of the sun, and make
their doors and windows to triumph
la the flowery spoil. The after-part of
the day is chiefly spent in dancing
.round a tall pole, which is called a
May-pole, which, being placed in a
convenient part of the village, stands
there, as it were, consecrated to.
THE GODDESS OF FLOWERS,
without the least violation offered it in
the whole circle of the year. And
thia is not the custom of the British
common people only, but it is the
custom ot the generality of other
nations, particularly of the Italians.
Polydore Vergil tells thaa the youth of
both sexes were accustomed to go into
the fields on the calends of May and
bring thence the branches as trees,
singing all the way as they came, and
' so place them on the doors of their
houses. This is the relic of an ancient
custom among the heathen, who
observed the last four days of April
and the first of May in honor of the
goddess Flora, who was imagined the
deity presiding over the fruit and
flowers.” People on the other side of
the ocean, in proclaiming their en
thusiasm for the freshness of a
beautiful world, were paying a true
and affecting homage to its Creator
and though their cheerfulness might
be boisterous, it was far better than
apathy which passes by the wonders
and beauties of the earth with indiff
erence. Dancing around the “May
pole” and other customs have fallen
into disuse in the other continent, and
have never been adopted in yiis.
MUCH is SAID
and written about the “merry month
of May,” but in the northen States’of
the Union it is a harsh, uncomfortable
month.
April showers
Bring May flowers
may be true in England and other
countries, but with us June is really
the flowery month, the first that
brings balih and perfume and perfect
freedom from water proofs and over
shoes. In the United States the an
nual household derangement takes
place otf tlie flr»t of May. Moving of
residence Is nowhere a mdro general
practice than jn this country. For
days and nights that are past—-days
fatigueful and nights restless—prepa
rations have been made for the annual
“moving.” The .air at nightfall has
been murky with the smoke that hangs
above the street from ancient straw
beds, sepulchres ot countless hordes of
that pest, the Cimex leclularlus, that
till now had “possessed themselves in
great contentment” in the engagement
of sanguiary forage. Carpets are torn
up, family idols are stowed in feather
beds, chairs, beadsteads, bureaus,
crockery, looking glasses are hustled
into wagons and carts of all descrip
tions, some families turning out while
others are moving in, and all is hurry,
bustle and confusion —a harvest forex
press wagons, wheel-barrows and car
riers; distress, damage loss and misery
to hundreds who do notown their own
homes.
A SURPRISING INVENTORY.
He that has never “moved” on the
Ist of May cannot have the slightest
conception how much “personal pro
perty” he stands possessed of! Things
utterly forgotten “turns up” in so
many out-of-the-way places; things,
too, about which quandaries arise,
wheather they shall be taken or left,
that excite the same quandary in the
house that you are going into as the
one which you leave (and there is the
double brother of moving.) Oh, who
that has “moved” among the moving
circles of our cities on May day but
has seed and understood all this!
Franklin said: “Three moves are equal
to one fire.” If so, how many families
have been many times burned out?
But after all May is a beautiful month,
Whose lovely, plesant days are the har
bingers of birds and fruits and flowers.
What It Will Cure.
Dr. John Bull’s Sarsaparilla will cure
scrofula, syphilis, pimples, boils, sore
eyes, ring-worm, scabby-head, bone
aches, aching-joints and muscles, sore
lungs, sore kidneys, sore liver, lame
back, the after effect of mercury and
potash, dyspepsia, asthma, nervous de
bility, female complaints, general weak
ness, unnatural fatigue, etc. It is strange
that anyone will continue to outlet from
any of the above complaints when the
use of
Dr. John Bull’s Sarsaparilla
will restore perfect health and strength.
It stands unequaled as a vegetable tonic
and blood purifier, and no other remedy
has as sure curative virtue.- It is highly
concentrated aud never fails to have a
good effect on the system, and has
proven itself in thousands of instances a
cure for all forms of weakness, sores and
pain. You have only yourself to blame
If you remain an invalid when this rem
edy will restore your health. Lfitge

XF ‘K. B. Roby, Vincennes, Indiana,
writes: “I would not give one bottle of
Bull’s Sarsaparilla for twenty bottles of
any other Wood medicine 1 have ever
taken, and I believe I have used a barrel
of other medicines for my blood.

AND SHE IS RIGT.
“Bad” Dosn’t Believe in Giving Chil
dren Too Much “Bad Place.’’
I heard a mother give her boy,aged six
years,an extreme and overwhelming doss •
of hell the other day. She told him
what he would suffer; she made his |
tender little flesh quiver as she discribed
how it would scorch, and she made him
close his eyes with terror as she pictured
the big black devil that would stick a
pitchfork in him. And his crime? He
wanted a second piece of bread and
marmalade. I prayed from the very
heels of my shoes up that that woman
might get the hell she pictured for that
child. I tell you is is a sin—a wicked,
vile sin—to force little children ‘o
believe chat anything of this kind exists.
Teach them, if you will, that they will
suffer for the sin; but if that small boy
had got that second piecs of bread ar d
marmalade he would have had the stom
achache sure, and that would have been
quite suffering enough for him an 1 le
wouldn’t have troubled himself about
the hereafter; the present would have
known when he got erough.
Don’t I belive in a punishment here
after? Certainly I do. But I don’t
think even the devil himself will be
mean enough to make little children un
happy when there are no end of wicked
men and women, not to mention politi
cians, for him to try his hand on. Over
does of the “isms” are like overdoses of
cofl liver oil—the stomach refuses to le
tain them, and the small boy that is
pranced in and taught that he must learn
thirty verses in th* Bible and hymn or
two Scripture lessons before he has his
Sunday dinner is in about atheist as any
body I know.
You want to make your boy or girl
loving, brave and good? He will never
be any of these three by learning to re
cite 600 versese in the Old Testi men t and
getting a child’s picture Bible as a prize
in Sunday school. That doesn’t make
men—that makes milksops. I don’t
mean by this that your boy mustn’t look
at a Bible; he ought to have one, and it
ought to come from his mother. Here
and there ought to be a little blue flower,
or a bit of pink ribbon, intended to draw
his attention to some special verses, but
I do not think he will gain overmuch by
reading the Old Testament. You might
just as well put Swinburne in his hands
as the Song of Solomon; and if you want
him to lose all respect for either Solomon
or David, let him read the history of
their lives and discover how very human
they were, how much inclined to fall,and
how of eu they did things you and I
would think rather mean.
My dear woman, teach your boy <t
girl to love God because He is good
and kind; to love his mother because she
can tell him all about whatever he wants
to know; and to respect and honor his
father because he is a man, and God
made him in bis own image.

shall take them to some city and allow

encouragement and co-operation of their friends throughout the State.
Douglasville is situated twenty-seven miles west of Atlanta on the Georgia
Pacific Railway. The College is located near the center of the town, but just out
side the business part. It is believed that no vi.lage, town, or city in Georgia,

the water pure and cool, and the society as good as can be found in any city < f
the State.

And let me have fair play,
