'Writing front Chickamauga the corres
pondent of the Constitution says:
“Os all the soldiers in camp those from
the South have borne off the palm for so
berness and good behavior, though some
of the regiments from the North have also
won good reputations. As usual Georgia
stands well to the front, and there is not
a prouder man in the service than Colonel
Lawton when he walks at the head of his
command. The splendid appearance made
by the First Georgia when it came into
the park impressed every one. and the
good impression has been maintained by
the splendid, conduct of the boys in all
drills and camp eour esies. Every item of
equipment has been supplied, and it would
only require sixty minutes for the boys
to be ready to board the train for the
fr,ont. The regiment has been remarkably
fortunate in securing equipment. In many
instances the/ were provided with differ
ent items before some of the regiments
which were going to the front at once.”

FAKE BEGGARS
Have Developed Even in Macon a# a Result
of the War.
The war has been the cause of a new
kind of fraud being worked on a sym
pathizing public.
The fraud has grown from the ranks
of the beggars, and the police are on the
alert for the human vultures.
The new game is for a husky looking
beggar to bundle up an arm or carry a
crutch and solicit alms on the pretext that
he is a wounded soldier from Cuba, dis
charged because his wounds are incurable.
He usually adds that at the time of his
discharge he had no money, and is anxious
to get enough to make his way “to home
and mother.”
The plea is put up amid aparrent spasms
of pain, and the sympathy is generally
aroused.
His appearing in the garb of a civilian
he accounts for by ’he discharge story,
though often he buys a cast-off military
cap pr hat. -

HANSON WILL GET
ON COMMISSION.
Said that the President Will
Make Appointment in a
Few Days.
The correspondent of the Atlanta Con
stitution says this morning:
The president will tender a place on the
industrial commission to Major J. F. Han
son, of Macon, as the representative of the
otton mill interests of the South He
stated as much to a friend with whom he
discussed the make-up of this commission
today. It is his intention to fill the mem
bership of this body some time during this
month, so that it may meet and organize
about the first of September. This com
mission is to consider a great variety of
matters bearing upon the labor question,
an>l K will doubtless play a most impor
tant part in the legislation of the future.
If Major Hanson accepts the president’s
tender. Georgia will have two members.
Congressman Livingston being one of the
five appointed from the house. Hanson is
the president's own sugestion. He has in
no sense been a candidate for the place,
but the president’s warm friendship for
the major cropped out when' it was, urged
upon him that a representative of the cot
ton milling interests should have a place
on the body, and he at once decided to
offer it to the Georgian.
Cotton mill men of South Carolina have
indorsed Ellison A. Smythe, of that state,
but if Major Hanson will accept the .presi
dent’s personal tender of the place, he will
be named.
The Rev. W. B. Costley, of Stockbridge,
Ga., while attending to his pastoral duties
at Ellen wood, that state, was attacked by

saving my life. It relieved me at once.”

BABIES IN CHINA.
Little Ones In the Celestial Empire Re
ceive Much Attention.
Babies are naado much of all the world
over, but In China especially they are sur
rounded with a host of mysterious super
stitions and practices.
They are very comical to look at. those
children of the Celestials. From the day
they are born they are put into a little
coat and trousers, with a wee cap to keep
the head warm, and little shoes on their
feet. In fact, they are the exact counter
parts of their parents in miniature.
A child is not bathed until the third
day. It is not considered lucky to do so
before. When this has been done, charms,
consisting of lucky cash (smallest coin)
and small silver toys are attached by red
cord to the child s wrists and worn for
many months. This is to keep away all
evil spirits.
Red strips of paper with certain char
acters written on them are also nailed up
outside the door of baby’s room to ward
off all evil influences.
These strips are kept up until after the
eleventh day, and it is usual for no stran
ger to enter until they have been removed.
When a Chinaman has lost several chil
dren, on the birth of another he is espe
cially careful to guard it from evil spirits,
who evidently have a spite against him.
He therefore invests in a sword made out
of cash and strung toget her with red cord.
This is hung up by baby’s bed as a
charm and is considered very effective.
The child generally leaves the room at
the end of the month, and on that day the
head is shaved for the lirst time.
I cannot learn that any great importance
Is attached to the giving of a name to the
child. It is, as a rule, the grandfather or
grandmother on the father’s side for choice
who names it, but, if they are dead it de
volves on the mother’s parents or some
elderly relation.
W hen baby has arrived at the mature
age of 4 months, the maternal grandmoth
er makes it a present of a most elaborate
chair with a table attached. There is gen
erally a feast on this day, and many friends
are invited.
A curious custom is observed when the
child Is a year old. Again a party is given
to celebrate the event, and <> large sieve is
placed upon the table with various arti
cles laid upon it—books, writing imple
ments, gold, silver, fruit, etc. Baby, at
tired in new red cloths with red cord braid
ed in his hair, is placed in the center of the
sieve, and according to what articles he
seizes first will his fortune be told. If he
takes up the money, of course ho will be
come a merchant and rich; if a book, why,
he will be learned and distinguish himself
in literature.
In every household there is an image of
the goddess of children, who is supposed
to have the care of the little ones till they
grow up. Many offerings are made to
her, esjecially on the child’s birthday.
When a child reaches the age of 16 years,
ho is supposed to pass from the control of
his particular goddess, ami a ceremony is
gone through called the “going out of
childhixid. ” Afterward thank offerings
are made to the goddess of the children for
the care bestowed.
But. to return to our babies. As I men
tioned before, the bead is shaved when a
month old—sometimes entirely—but very
often a small patch is left at the crown of
the head and the hair plaited into a stiff
little cue. which stands out straight from
the head through a little hole in the cap.
It it is a little girl, her head is often not
shaved, but her hair plaited into two plaits
above the ears. Red cord is plaited in
with the hair as a charm, for spirits can
not face red, hence baby’s red clothes.—

MACON NEWS FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 5 1898.
A TALE WITH A MORAL.
Always Propose Benrath a Tree, and the
King May Be Thrown lu.
“When I was 20 years u'd," said a vet
eran of many dollars, ‘I was working on
a farm in Massachusetts not- far from
Springfield, where lived a pretty little girl
ns poor as I was. the daughter of a Meth
odist minister. One day tinder the shade
of a big tree in the chi t . i.vard I told her
bow much there was in my heart and how
little there was in my pecki t and asked
her to marry me. She was 17 and silly,
and she consented on the spot. For an
1 our or more after that we sat under the
tree talking over the fair and foolish
things that lovers dream, when it occurred
to me that an engagement ring was the
correct thing for such an occasion, and I
began bemoaning the jxiverty which pie
vented my getting one for the dean st hand
on earth. It was absolutely true, too, for
I really did not have enough money tn
buy a tin ring, much less the only kind I
thought Janie ought to have.
“But Janie didn’t care for the ring. She
said we ought to thank Providence tha*
we had each other and let the old ring go.
She was on the point of saying more, when
she stopped suddenly, gave a little scream
and pointed to something bright in her
lap. I looked, and there lay a pretty gold
ring with a small diamond flashing a
greeting to us. At first we were afraid to
touch it, but we sisin got over that, and
as we looked it over wc wondered whqre
it had come from, and though we- knew
that the days of miracles bad passed we
were both Inclined to think it was a bless
ing from heaven on our sweet and pure
love.
“There was no one in the tree to have
drop] id it as a joke, but as it could not
have reached us by any way other than
from e.r.ove we proeeideil to search the
tree. Nothing could be seen from the
ground, and I climbed up, and there over
in the fork above us, high up, I found a
bird’s nest building and knew that the
builders had picked the ring up some
where, for various bits of colored ribbon
and rags fluttered about the nest. One of
these pieces of silk Janie recognized as the
trimming of a lady's gown who came to
sec tier mother, and we decided at once
that it was right to see if it belonged to
the lady.
“Thither we went, happy as two chil
dren, and Janie went in and I waited out
side. Presently she called mo in, and
when I had, with many blushes, told the.
story of the ring on Janie’s finger she
kissed her, and said it was now mine to do
with as I pleased. She hoped I would not
forget those who had been my friends
when I had no diamonds, and then right
there before the lady I had never seen be
fore I slipped the ring on Junie’s finger
and kissed her. As soon as I had done
that the lady kissed Janie, and I’ll be shot
if she didn’t kiss me, too, and as wo went
out there were tears in her eyes glistening
like the diamond on Janie’s finger.”—

You can fool people, but there is
no such thing as cheating Nature.
A doctor may prescribe salves and
lotions to be used externally, and
deceive the sufferer from Eczema
for the time being, but the poison in
the blood is not deceived by it. It
is bound to show again in the shape
of ugly eruptions and scales.
Eczema
is a deep-seated blood disease. It
is so difficult to cure that today there
is only one medicine which sufferers
can take with certainty of a cure.
Sr/ffi’s Specific (S. S. S.) never
fails to cure Eczema. It searches
out the germ s that cause the disease,
assists Nature to throw off the
poison, and cures permanently. It
