It is said that the Florida or

Avany rate, it is some comfort
to know that you don’t travel by

Burglars dynamited the safe in “
the postoffice at Decatur Ga., and
robbed it of $lOO on Thursday
night.

At Waters, Michigan, the mer
cury registered 58 degrees helow
zero on Saturday week ago. Wa

county. The workmen managed
to escape from freezing by keeping
up huge bonfires at various points
in the camps.
A wild duck flew down in the
vard of Mr. J. B. Williams yes
terday, and was captured by some
of the family. It was a beautiful
bird, one of the kind we never
gaw before. It’s back was cover
ed with ice when it was picked
up. It must have come from the
ley region.—Glasscock Banner.
. Over a year ago a large St.
Bernard dog was taken from Cul
met, Mich., to the Klondike, and
a few days ago he returned, tak
ing possession of his old kennel.
Evidently he realized that there
was no place on earth like “home,
sweet home,”” but the question is,
how did he manage to find his
way back,
The McEnery resolution adopt
ed in the United States is as fol
lows: ‘“That by the ratification
of the treaty of peace with Spain,
it is not intended to incorporate
the inhabitants of the Philippine
Islands into citizenship of the
United States, nor is it intended
to permanently annex said islands
as an integral part of the territo
ry of the United States, but it is
the intention uf the United States
to establish on said islands a gov
ernment suitable te the wants and
conditions of the inhabitants of
said islands, to prepare them for
local self-government, and in due
“time to make such disposition of
said islands as will best promote
the interests of the citizens of the
United States and the inhabitants
of said Islands.”
The fight being made hy thui
New York board of health to
stamp out consumption will lw‘
watched with great interest. They
say that they will reduce it 50 per
cent at the very least. In Lon
don, also, a great crusade is to be
begun against the ‘‘white death,”
one firm subscribing $lOO,OOO, and
many others very liberally. In
California, however, that mecca
of consumptives, they propose to
stop the coming of the invalids,
upgn the ground that the natives
have become innoculated with the
germs of the disease. All efforts
to check the ravages of this most
dread disease will meet with a
hearty God-speed from the world
at large. §
[ PUBLIC ROADS.
On the subject of roads the
Rome Hustler-Commercial has
this to say: ‘The severe rains
of last fall and winter have made
many people in Georgia ask the
question, ““How are our roads to
be improved?”’ That something
must be done, all admit, but just
what to do few seem inclined to
express an opinion. In most of
the more densely populated coun
ties gome road system has been
adopted, whereby new surveys and
much grading has been done,.
Convicts have been employed and
new machinery has been used so
that much good grading has been
done, and if the rains would cease,
many good roads would exist. The
need now seems to be for a firm, |
substantial top dressing for roads,
which will make the highway
smooth and durable. Crushed
stone is one way to finish a road.
It is rough at first, but coon be
comes smooth and firm. A bed of
crushed stone say six inches in
depth, with a top finish in chert
makes one of the best roads
known in_the south. In the lime
stone regions, there are vast beds
of chert or gravel that could be
utilized for the purpose of mak
ing good roads in Georgia. There
is but one objection to this, and
that is the expense. It costs very
little to load it on the' cars, but
the railroads charge heavy freights,
and the hauling of the gravel from
the cars is slow and hard work.
If railroads can be induced to car
ry the chert at a low cost, and
gome way of getting it to the
roadway could be employed with
out t>o much expense, and then
many of our leading thorough
fares could be improved and made
almost perfect. Fulton and Floyd
counties have done much work of
this sort and the county authori
ties are all well pleased with the
durability.of such roads.”
The problem of gcod roads is
one Cobb county will have to
solve.
JOHN G. CARLISLE ON THE PHILIP
PINES. :
HSuch an acquisition would not
strengthen us. On the contrary
it would be a constant drain oh
our resources, without any sub
stantial compensasion for the out
lay. Even when not in a state of
actual insurrection, the people
are turbulent, cruel and unmind
ful of the rights of person and
property; and it will require a
moet vigilaut administration of
the law by honest and capable of
ficials to preserve order among
them, even in the most enlighten
ed parts of the islands, while in
some parts it is at least doubtfnl
whether this can be done at all.
Spain has tried it for more than
three centuries and has signally
failed. Millions of dollars have
been expended and thousands of
lives have been lost in a vain ef
fort to enforee obedience to the
laws. If we acquire the Philip
pines we will find it more dfficult
to defend them against any great
European naval power than it
will be to defend the whole coast
of the United States against the
same power. They will add com
paratively nothing to our strength
or prosperity in time of peace, and
they will be a positive weakness
to us in time of war.”

! BRAIN SURGERY FOR INSANITY
Several vears ago a brilliant
young lawyer of Chicago sustained
a fevere blow on the head. When
he had recovered from his physi
cal hurt it was discovered that his
brightness of mind was gone. He
was neither a lunatie nor an imbe
becile, but his power of reasoning
from cause to effect was gone.
He could not remember. He was
practically groping in the dark.
Some months ago he determined
to have his head examined utder
the X-ray and to submit to an op
eration in the hope of finding re
lief. The examination with the
X-ray was sucecessful. It showed
a piece of bone pressing on the
brain. The doctors knew precise
ly what to do to remove it. They
did it, and the young lawyer re
covered almost, if not quite, all of
his brain power.
The second case differed from
the one just mentioned in that
the patient suffered horrible pains
in the head which finally drove
him insane. He tried to kill, not
only others, but himself. It was
necessary to use force to control
him. The physicians diagnosed
the case as being the hitherto in
curable disease of brain tumor.
Meantime the sufferer had been
pronounced permanently insane.
Here was an instance in which it
was not a matter of raising up a
depressed piece of bone, but of
putting the knife directly into
the brain and cutting away a ma
lignant growth. With the X-ray |
picture as a guide the surgeonsl
trephined the skull, opened the
brain, cut out the tumor, arranged
drainage with a rubber tube andl
awaited the result. The patient '
has now passed the danger point,
and in all probability will, within
a short time, walk out of the hos
pital physically and mentaily a
man.
The promise held out by these
operations is that at no distant
day it may be possible to bring
back to light and intelligence
many of the poor creatures who
are now in our insane asylums,
and that henceforth fewer unfor
tunates will have: to be coudemn
ed to that life which is more hor
rible than death. Insanity will
hereafter be inclnded in the list
of physical as well as mental dis
eases, and it is assured that brain
surgery will be brought to even
much higher perfection by the
brilliant*'men who are devoting
themselves to thegstudy of it.—

) You ma_‘y: have heard
, about SCOTT’'S EMULSION
) and ‘have a vague notion
: that it is cod-liver -oil with
, its bad taste and smell and
all its other repulsive fea
t tures. It is cod-liver oil, the
) purest and the best in the
world, but made so palata
ble that almost everybody
can take it. Nearly all
children like it and ask for
more.
SCOTT’S
EMULSION
looks like cream; it nour
ishes the wasted body of
the baby, child or adult
better than cream or any
other food in existence, It
bears about the same rela
¥ tion to other emulstons that
, cream does to milk. If you
have had any experience
with other so-called ‘‘just as
good’’ preparations, you
g will find that this is a fact.
The hypophosphites that are
gcombined with the cod-liver oil
give additional value to i because
gthr?v tone up the nervous svstem
andd impart. strength to the 'whole
bady.
