DON’T OVER-DO IT.
The Atlanta Journal of January 10th
had the following:
“Formerly the teachers of Georgia
have had to wait indefinitely for their
money, but under Governor Smith’s
administration, they have been paid
prompty.”
The Journal, without great diligence
could find very much in Governor
Smith’s administration to commend
without stating the above, which is
absolutely untrue. Only in the coun
ties where the Boards of Education
have borrowed the money in antici
pation of the taxes have teachers been
paid promptly. In the others many
have as yet not recieved the pay for
their third month’s work.—Jesup Sen
tinel.
COTTON TAX.
Our busy congressman, 01ms. G. Ed
wards, seems to believe in being busy,
lie has many bills before congress, but
none more important than his bill to
have the national government refund
to southern farmers that vnst sum
which was collected during war times
upon cotton. In his speech before
congress he said:
“Early in my life, while toiling upon
a farm in Georgia, 1 purposed in my
heart that if I ever was in a position
where 1 could say or do anything in
the interest of the farmer I would take
advantage of the opportunity. It is
therefore with pleasure and pride that
my voice is raisod today in this, my
first speech in congress, in behalf of
that great class of our most useful
citizens and in the interest of my own
state.”—Stillmore Leader.-
SATAN TERRIFIED.
There is as great- genius displayed in
advertising as in the higher branches
of literature. No problem daunts the
modern advertising man.
In the window of a little book store
in Eighth Avenue, New York, was re
cently heaped a great pile of Bibles,
marked very low—never before were
Bibles offered at such a bargain ; and
above them all, in big letters, was the
inscription:
“Satan trembles when he sees
Bibles sold as low as these.”—Ex.
If congress passes a bill or resolution
to restore the motto, “In God we
trust,” on the $10 and $‘20 gold coins,
the president will approve it. lie has
said so. The president can pick up a
hot potato and then drop it about as
quickly and neatly as any man in pub
lic life.—Savannah News.

Pneumonia’s Deadly Work
had so seriously affected my right
lung,” writes Mrs. Fannie Connor, of
Rural Route 1, Georgetown, Tenn.,
“that I coughed continuously night and
day and the neighbors’ prediction—
consumption—seemed inevitable, until
my husband brought home a bottle of
Dr. King’s New Discovery, which in
my case proved to he the only real
cough cure and restorer of weak, sore
lungs.” When all other remedies ut
