N —— Governor Hughes declares with positiveness that he will not ac cept second place on the Repub lican ticket, Mr. Roosevelt made the same assertion in 1900, even after he had been placed in nomi nation on the the floor of the con vention, We publish a simple care for small pox, kindly sent by a cor respondent: ‘‘One ounce of cream of tartar, dissolved in water, drunk at intervals when cold,” is the recipe, and in recommending it the corregpondent says ‘‘it has cured thousands, nover leaves a mark, never causes blindness, and brings speedy relief.”’—Advocate of In dia. Asa G. Candler, the millionaire coca-cola man, who heads the com pany which built the skyscraping building bearing his name, has been given a permit for extonsive improvements in the building known as the Moore-Marsh build ing at Edgewood avenue and North Pryor street, Atlanta, amounting to $35,000. The building will be converted into five stores. A dispatch to the Record-Herald from Omaha says: ‘‘ln case Wm. J. Bryan receives the Democratic nomination, his daughter, Mrs, Leavitt, will take the stump in Colorado, Wyoming and several other Western States, and will campaign in Ler father’s interest. Mrs. Leavitt will confine her ef forts to the women, and will enly stump those States which have woman suffrage laws.”’ Mr. Paul D. Wright, of Walker county, a brother of Hon. Seaborn Wright, of Floyd, has come out square for Joseph M. Brown for governor on the ground that the question of business and financial prosperity 1s the only issue of con sequence in the campaign. Mr, Wright, in an interview, asserts thet prohibition is no longer an issue, and that disfranchisement is in the same category. He dep recates the attack which the gov ernor has made on the railroads and foreign capital, which, he con siders, was a serious error, and for that reason will support Mr. Brown. Don’t be afraid to do your daty. A man who has opinions of his own and courage to advocate them, will be sure to have opposition in this world, because he runs across or contrary to other people’s opin ions, but just keep straight ahead if your cause is right and your conscience clear. Don’t bother yourself about what other people say; life is too short for that. Some will abuse you through envy, and others for want of sense: oth ers still for want of principle, and some because they honestly differ with you. But if you keep right on openly, manfully, intelligently and with proper dignity of char acter, honesty of purpose and self respect, those who honestly differ with you, will respect you and your opinion. How is this? A small boy went to the druggist, tip-toed so that he might be able to see over the coun ter, and eaid : I want some medicine to reduce flesh.”’ Drug Clerk—‘‘Anti-fat?’’ Small Boy—'*No; Uncle.”’ : A PLEA FOR SANITY AND COMMON SENSE. Under theabove caption William D. Upshaw, better krown as ‘‘Ear nest Willie,”’ has an editorial in his paper, the Golden Age, which shows how the state and the peo ple are suffering because of unwise legislation. Mr. Upshaw says, in part: ““This spirit of dishonest oppres sion so widespread among the peo ple is eagily influenced into frantic fanaticism in what is called rail road legislation. We do not deny, nor wish to deny, that some abuses have ciept into the management of the railroads that need to be corrected. And we are far from charging that & dichonest spirit is ‘back of all corrective legislation. Such a charge would include the writer of these lines, for he be lieves 1n sane corrective legisla tion. Bat we do declare, in the name of all that is just and hon est, that it is time to call a halt when a company of legislators or commissioners demand that men who have invested their money in railroad properties must not make more than five per cent. on their original investment, while the very men who are ruling on these cases are making—some 30, some 60 and some 100 per cent. on their own private investments. ““This cannot be denied; and if this is fair and square and houest, then we have been mistaken all along as to the meaning of these homely terms. ““‘Railroads are going into the hands of receivers and other sys tems are on the verge of financial tragedy, being compelled to take off many thousands of miles of train service a day in order to keep out of the hauds of a receiver. “We know one man who had made and saved sixty thousand dollars. He put it into railroad stock, and today every dollar of his little fortune has been ham mered out by agitation, stag nation and almost death. We know another man who has lost over one hundred thousand dollars by shrinkage of values. With his hard earned fortune gone, he stands with empity hands trying, in these troublous times, to main tain his actual living expenses. ‘“We can think of no other means go horrible for a system of politi cal propagunda that dries up the savings of a lifetime in a few fren zied months.”’ FEDERAL MONEY FOR GEORGIA.

Her portrait was published and her exploit described in the newspapers of May Ist, and the next nine days brought her seventy letters from masculine admirers, some promptly proposing mar riage, others more delicately re questing the privilege of beginning & correspondence. Among the seventy are men whose letters be speak intelligence and standing in their communities. How idle was the elder Weller’s caution: ‘‘Samivel, bevare of vid ders!”’ How wrong is the old no tion that men prefer the timid, shrinking woman, who shrinks at a mouse, faints at a word and dis solves 1n tears at every opportu nity, to the strong and courageous of their sex! When Andrew D. White was minister to Germany, he received gome queer requests from Ameri cans. One was contained in a let ter from an old iady living in the West, who enclosed in her letter four pieces of white linen, each some six inches square. ‘““We are going to have a fair in our church,”’ she wrote, “‘and I am making an autograph quilt. 1 want you to get me the autographs of the Em peror, the Empress and the Crown Prince, and tell them to be very careful not to write too close to the edge of the squares, as a seam has to be allowed for putting them to gether.”” 1f she had been favored by Mr. White, that quilt should have sold for not less than eight dollars. FLAT DUCK MILLS IN SOUTH TO CLOSE DOWN. St. Louis, May 14.—Following a conference between settling agents and the manufacturers, members of the Association of Manufagturers of single-filled duck, met here and decided to closs all cotton mills makiug this grade in the United States. The action was taken, it is said, be cause of recent business depres sions and inability to sell the pro duct above the cost of manufac ture. Members of the Association say that not a wheel will turn after a week or ;two in any of the large mills of the South. Upward of 25,000 operatives will be thrown out of employment until October, when the mills will probably be re-opened. The mills are principally in the Southern States. Texas, Alabama, Georgia, Louigiana, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Kansas and other States were represented at the meeting. Mrs. Hetty Green now under stands better than ever before what iBs meant by the compensatione of obscurity. As long as she lived in a Hoboken flat outside of business hours she was enabled to eat and sleep in peace, She was not pes tered by beggars, cranks and gold brick men, except while she was in the Wall street district. But as goon as she moved to the Plaza Hotel into & suite that cost her as much per day as her living had been in Hoboken for a month, she became the victim of the attacks of all sorts of the money-hungry. She has been cajoled, flattered and threatened by persons who wanted to see the color of her cash until, it is said, she is on the point of going into hiding again. Noteven the ‘“‘Black Hands’’ have neglected her, She has been threatened with death in terrible form unless she pays $5,000 to a certain writer of a ‘*Black Hand’’ letter within a specified time. Mrs. Green is not frightened by the threat, but she is annoyed. All she desires is to be let alone, to make her money as she can and spend or keep it as she pleases. THINGS HAVE CHANGED. Thirty years ago one of the old fashioned steel-wire spring wagons was a luxury. Ina funeral pro cession a mile long you would see %erhaps two or three of them. iverybody rode in farm wagomns. Twenty years age a top buggy was a rich man’s gocod fortune, and kut few of them were seen. Today a top buggy with a rubber tire is as common as & Democrat in Texas. Anybody and everybody has them. A farm wagon in a funeral proces sion would be a novelty, The up per tens ride in automobiles, and they are fast getting to he com mon. A newspaper printed yes terday is stale. If a letter is twenty-four hours traveling a thousand miles there is a kick coming. Ten dollars don’t last as long as ten cents did with our grandfathers. We spend more for socks and suspenders than grand father did for his Sunday clothes, and still we worder what is the matter with the world that it does not grind out as many rich bless ings as it did a century ago.— Bethany (Mo.) Clipper. ‘*A Cleveland man arrested for beating his wife said that he did it because she had not spoken to him in three months. Some ex cuses certainly are worse than none.”’—Exchange, Theidea of a man treating a mute that way! It is estimated that not less than 4,000 colamns of moral ed itorials have been printed in the papers of the United States, not to mention tens of thousands of words of highly moral sermons preached, on the basis of the court ship of Mme. Anna Gould and Prince Helle deSagan, Thus it would appear that these two per sons, by presenting a ‘‘horrible example,’’ have served the purpose of contributing indirectly to the moral uplift. If we were without ‘“horrible examples,”” to what should we refer by way of illustra tion? What a lovely world this is toa girl the first time she falls in love. Your Passing Shadogy DO NOT TOUCH IT.

The Genesee Pure Food Ca., Le Roy, N. r 'BROOD HATCHED BY A ROOSTER. ’ St. Louis Dispatch to Cincinnati Enquirer, ~ The mollycoddle rooster of Mae= §plewood, Mo., is now a mother. 'He hatched twelve Plymouth Rock chicks out of fifteen eggs on which ‘he had been sitting three weeks, and 18 inordinately proud of the achievement. But he was not al lowed to enjoy the pleasures of motherhood. N. D. Kitchell, his owner, was afraid he would injure the chickens in moving awkwardly among them—a fear which was increased by the rooster’s desire to exhibit his brood to the others in the barnyard—and took all twelve away from him, placing them in charge of a sitting hen. The rooster could not be ap peased. Whenever Kitchell walk ed away, the bird returned to his attack upon the hen that had dis possed him. Immediately Kitch ell struck up a happy experiment. He put out fifteen more eggs fcr the rooster to sit on. This sub terfuge had the desired effect, and Mr. Mollycoddle is again on the job. THE MATHEMATICAL MIND. A literary worker who wished to do a large amount of reading by proxy advertised for an assistant capable of digesting the contents of a tremendous quantity of books in a very short while. While weigh ing each applicant’s qualifications for rapid, assimi'ative reading, he inquired carefully into his mathe matical acquirements. He finally chose the man who was most skill ful at untangling arithmetical problems, “‘On the surface, that seems an unnecessary accomplishment,’” he said, ‘‘but experience has taught me that anybody who is expert in figures can read any kind of liter ature put before him with gieater accuracy and speed than the per son lacking in mathematical acu men.’’—New York Times, w | | ARRIVING TiMr AT MARIETTA, GA.
