That famous, or rather infamous

A special from Brunswick- says:

will sweep the state for governor, ”
We think the young man who said
this made a mistake. He should
have said it is believed that the state
will sweep Atkinson out of hearing.

The roundi«g up of Gov. Atkin
son’s administration is reaching a
point where it may be fairly estima
ted and without any real diversity to
| his good stewardship. As the way of
I newspapers, he has been sharply
I criticised when editorial buffoonery
was short of exciting incident*, and
„ <lot of demogogy has pranced around
under the guise of fearless expression
but as a matter of fact, Gov. Atkin
son has stood the test of stewardship
under much pressure as well as any
of his reent predecessors, and Geor
gia has not suffered at his hands. It is
true that there has been much said of
|an Atkinson ring, but it would be a
matter for a man to remain in
BErrgia polities whithout being some
of a ring, and there is probably

Swvigorates the entire constitution. It helps
the liver to filter out all bilious impurities.
It gives tire digestive and nutritive organs
power to extract nourishm nt from the food

creates appetite, good digestion’, and solid,

It is far superior to the mere temporary j
stimulus of malt-extracts. It is better than
cod liver oil emulsions because it is assimi

“ About fifteen years ago " writes Mr. John Mc-S

“ I was in very poor health, had no appetite, war
sluggish, and so lifeless it seemed impossible for J
me to do anything that required effort. Every fall

medicine. I weighed at the time about 125 lbs.
I used several bottles, and upon quitting it
weighed 175 lbs. Since that time my weight law
varied from this to 195 pounds.

BOYS AND GIRLS OF KOREA.
The customs of Korea are similar
in some respects to the customs of
China. A little girl receives no wel
come at her birth, while great feast
ing celebrates the com
ing of a boy. Parents in America do
not nndgrstaTid This, To" to us a
Slaughter is as precious as a son. A
fathers ashamed to tell his .
relations and neighbors that the baby J
is a girl, vhJeJia can not. sound the
trumpets too lead or too long when
he hears the boy has come.
Presents are manifold as soon as
the friends know that a male baby
has been added to the community,
but curses and ill luck meet the little
girl, before she knows hew unwel
come she is.
The boys are sent to school, but
for the girls there are no schools ex
cepl those established by the mission
aries. The fathers and mothers
think that all a girl to know 1$
how to cook ?and sew. They may
play* on the street and with their
brothers until they are about eight
years old, when they must stay with
in doors; indeed, the rest of their
lives is mostly spent in the house,
ijvhere they are to learn and to do the
drudgery of the kitchen, unless they
are rich and keep servants.
The boys study like the Chinese
children do. They stand with thtir
backs to tht teacher, swinging their
bodies to and fro, and shouting their
lessons at the top of their voices.
Think of what a babel that is when
twenty boysjare screaming the lessons
at one time!
They are in school from sunrise to
suuset, stopping work long enough ;
to eat, and this the year long,. except'
for a two week’s holiday at their New

Without question she must do as she

no more mother for the poor little
creature! Iler home is to be with

and hard with her.
