General William Booth, founder

who has recently been character
ized as the world’s greatest philan
thropist, hae set his face firmly
agsinst old age Yenoiom. Such

another scheme for idleness. He
holds that age is not necessarily a

the duty of everybody to keep on
working as long as life and
strength last.
An exchange gives a good story
on & certain minister as follows:
It ie eaid that the minister spoken
of goes to church Sunday morning
in & carriage. He received an
anonymous letter recently calling
his attention to the fact that the
Lord never rode to church ina
carriage. The minister read the
letter from the pulpit and then
remarked: ‘‘lf tge writer of this
note will come to me next Sunday
morning, properly saddled and
bridled, I shall be glad to follow
the Lord’s example and come to
church as He entered the city of
Jerusalem.”’
New York’'s new eight-hour law

effect on October Ist. Hereafter
it will be unlawful for railway,
telegraph and telephone operators
in that etate to work more than
eight consecutive hours in any

The new law makes it NOCORSATY
for the railroads to increase their
signal forces by about 88 per cent.
The pay of the old sperators has
been reduced in proportion to the
reduction in their hours of service.

“MAKING MONEY AT HOME.”
This time of year this question
comes to the fore quite often. De
spite the fact that many girls and
women reseut the advice to con
gider the trade of dressmaking a
money-making business to be car
ried on 1n the home, or the home
neighborhood, it is well known
that meauy women not only make
{a living through following it, but
also lay up quite a little money
besides every season. Thisis one
of the avenues that is never crowd
ed at the top. For good work,
good wages may be demanded, and
the really good home dressmaker
is never out of work. Dressmak
ing, in common with other busi
nesses, has its full share of trials
and troubles; kut I do not know
of any trade or business, or pro
fession, that has not. There is no
roval road to anywhere. Itis a
constant complaint, in the shop or
in the home, that it 18 almost im-l
possible to get workers into whose
hands expepsive materiale may be
placed with any assurance that the
finished garment will be at all sat
isfactory. Yet one can go into an
establishment where the work 1s
done by men and, given a few
"measurements, go away confident
‘that they will soon be In!possession
of a costume or gown the ‘‘fit”
and workmanship of which will be
unquestioned. Why? For one
thing, the ‘‘sewing men’’ do not
take up their trade ‘‘just as it
comes,”’ but go through specisl
training, learning the business
just as they would any other trade.
Even if a girl or woman does not
“make money'’ at the work, she
can, if she kuows how to do the
work, save quite & sum by making
her own garments, and the gar
ments for the rest of the family.
The cost of hiring even inexpen
sive stuffs made up, and especially
dresses or costumes, is, in many
instances, prohibitive, and the
work not always satisfactory.
GEORGIA’S RAILROAD LAW. 1
To the Editor of The Telegraph: I
propose to give to your readers a few
thort sketches touching the new Rail
road Commission law passed by the last
session of the Legislature.
I notice that the Governor praisee
this statute very highly in his public
utterances recently—in fact, believes
that gresmt good will result from the
punse of the law.
It deserves a careful examination to
ascertain just what has been done by
it, and how much good the {)oop)e of
Georglil may expect from the law. |
1. In the first place, it changed the!
number of the commissioners from |
three to five and increased the co:{x;&en- |
sation of the chairman from $2,500 to
$4,000.
The title of the aet provides that the
Governor is to appoint the chairman,
but the legislature apparently changed
the poliey and directed that the com
‘mission itself should select its own
chairman, It is a queer variance.
What may result from the same will
re%uire judicial determination.
‘ho act undoubtedly varies from its
title. .
The commission is authorizad to em
ploy one or more rate experts at a cost
of $4,000 per annum. -
Ite contingent expense fund has been
raised from $BOO to $3,000.
The printing fund which was hereto
fore only $l,OOO, is fixed at $2,000 in the
new act.
A ltenOfnpher also is authorized at
& cost of $1,200, and an attorney, whose
term of office is four years, receives a
salary of $2,600 per year.
The ealary of the secretary of the
commission is aleo raised from $1,200 to
$2,000 per annum.
The total increase of expenses, there
fore, is as follows:
Salaries of two additional com-

making & total increase in the
expeneges of this department of
the Government of .......... $17,200
over and above the former cost of
$lO,OBO per annum.
The total exfl;‘muaes of the Railroad
Commission office, therefore, will be
$28.300 ger annum. besides the number
less additional charges grewing out of
the investigations, hearings, costs in
law casee, and other matters of this
character.
~ The increase of $17,200, under ordi
nary circumstances, by an ordinary
Legislature, would no more have been
voted and passed than would a measure
to contribute to the salary of King
Edward VII, or any other European
potentate. Crvis.

“PNEUMONIA’S DEADLY WORK
had so seriously affected my right lung,”’
writes Mrs Faonnie Connor, of Rural
Route 1, Georgetown, Tenn, ‘“thst I
coughed continuously night and day,
and the neighbors’ prediction-—aon
sumption—seemed inevitable, until my
husband brought home a bottle of Dr
King’s New Discovery, which in mfi
case provea to be the onl{ REAL coug
cure and restorer of weak, sore lungs.”’

There are many people in Marietta
who will remember the Episcopal min
ister, Rev Clarence Leman. Time flies
ever 80 rapidly, and it is hard to realize |
it has been nineteen years since e left |
here. He filled the pulpit of St. James
from 1885 to 1888. On leaving here he
quit the ministry and turned his atten
tion to wrniting for newspapers and
magazines. Thizx did not last long,
however, and he went back into the
ministry, and i 8 now the pastor of a
large and flourishing church at Van
Buren, Ark. He has a daughter eigh
teen years of age, and a Marietta lady
who saw her last year says she is a per
fectly beautiful and charming girl.
