The city hospital ha* played an im portant function in the life of Augusta and under Ua preaent efficient manage ment Augusta’a hospital ha* become famous throughout the entire South. It 1* no unusual thing for patients from distant state* to be In the hospital un der the care of Augusta physician*. Augusta la forging ahead in the med ical world as she Is In the business nod commercial world. The city needs more Institutions of a public character; we need a private sanitarium to augment the work of the city hospital. There Is a Held here for such a work. Every winter brings more visitors to the city In the search •at rest anti health, and a well appoint ed private sanitarium would find. - Us capacity taxed to supply the demands made upon It by Northern invalids. Aside trom the local needs, which »re steadily growing, such an Institu tion would find a broad aud constantly increasing field of usefulness before it. Such institutions are becoming nec essary to every large city and the field open in Augusta Is au exceptionally in citing one. , u.iv !•** __ In yw * gs t*« taa "•* ■-»#•*■* *•#* j aw* gaggi tay h**t Ha* M***"* R** l E4W •> W • h—BBB •• tEhsf*# i«m qua*.— aha— »•* M* B*— *<*• m nm> a n»fW| »•*••••« ••• ' M— m a kiwaai a* *—•••*» •** 1 mm hf *•**>■ ••R'* •** •*’ #*»*—•••••* | n« —■- 1 m »——» «*■»<»•— h • aaa—M —*■■» » MMkPRE'** I ** *•* ; *h* ****** n * fri "** f «—■»*.# Ml • •*<• ***** *'*t (*** !

Such a promise would be an ln | suit to your Intelligence, for you all know that It Is the legislature of your statr. and not the governor, who enacts ; the taxing laws. But I want to Impress upon you the Importance of electing to the legislature only men who are pledged to the moat rigid economy;* and when you have done this you can depend on me to cooperate with them in every effort in the direction of econ omy and lower taxation.

WHAT (NE LITTLE AD. DID The Savannah Press la onr of the Ijeafafternoon paper* In the state. It la to Savannah wtiat The Herald la to Augusta. The afternoon paper goes Into the homes. It goes out with the day’s news and with the day's sds at a time when the news and the advertisementa can be revql and appreciated. The afternoon newspaper as a news medium and as sn advertising medium is steadily winning Its way to the front. We know that this won’t be the last time that the Press readers will find results from their nds In Savannah's afternoon paper. It’ the usual thing In Augusta and the people have long Btnoe realized that the afternoon paper Is the great want medium—the shortest xroad between buyer and seller. In speaking of the value of advertis ing the Press says: “SMALL, PROFITABLE BUSINESS for sale, with license, apd store for rent, in good locality, cheap. 223 Con gress street, west. “The above advertisement appeared yesterday afternoon In an inconspicu ous portion of the Savannah Press. It was inserted along with other popular column notices. There was no effort at display and no particular attention was directed to the modest little no tice. The people found It, however, as they do all things in the Press, end this morning the advertiser had more than twenty callers in response to It. He had no trouble In finding a good purchaser for the property he had on hand. “The experience of this advertiser shows how widely the Savannah Press Is read.

The notice was only i four lines long. There Is more than a hint to business men in the reault of the Insertion of this little notice. The people of Savannah watch the Press columns for advertisements as well as for news. The live business man will appreciate thia fact fully when he con- ! alders the work done by this notice. It Is sometimes necessary for a atore to be elosed and a clerk who Is a good employe has to rest and sleep. Not so with ®n advertisement. It Is always before the people when In n good me dium and It works without ceasing. It neither stops to cat nor sleep.” What He Did Think. “Do you think that Ambassador Tiny will succeed Secretary Day?” said the Horse Editor to the Snake Editor. “I don’t know about that, but I’ll tell voo what T do think.” “What?” “That this country Is now enjoying its Hay-Day."—Pittsburg Chronicle- Telegraph.
