By the disgraceful filibuster-! ing of a minority of the members of the House, the bill for the new depot on the state’s property in Atlanta seems likely to be de feated—for this session,'at least. Don’t forget that next Wednes day, 10th inst., is the date iixed by the Charter for the annual city election. Take enough ti me from your work to go to the poll s and cast a vote for the excellent nominees of last Friday’s white primary. Caledonia Lodge, No. 121, F. and A. M., will hold, their annual election of officers on the 21st inst., after which the members will enjoy an oyster supper, to which all Masons in good and reg ular standing are cordially in vited. _________ School will re-open at the State School for the Deaf in Cave Spring on Wednesday, January 2d. On account of the presence of scarlet fever, the inmates of the Institute were sent home in November, and after a thorough fumigation to destroy any germs of that dread disease, the session will resume work the first of the now year. The republican majority in the next House of Representatives is estimated at 47, as compared with 18 in the present House. Twenty-one of the state legisla tures which were chosen Novem ber 6th are to elect United States Senators; and in three states, Delaware,Nebraska and Montana, o'wing to special conditions, two Senators are to be chosen. The Senate, after the fourth of next March.will probably lie composed of 65 Republicans, 81 Democrats, and 4 People’s party or independ ent Senators. The State Senate lias killed the osteopathy bill—just ns it should have done. If the osteopaths want to practice medicine, let them pass the regular medical examination and get a profess ional license from the state. The examinations for license to prac tice medicine, law and dentistry should be rigid enough to keep out quackB and incompetents. A man should at least convince the state that lie knows the dilferenee between the medulla oblongata and a femur before he is al lowed to tinker with people’s life and health. The much-mooted Confederate Soldiers’ Home in Atlanta is to be accepted by the state at last- much to the gratification of the veterans aiid their friends. The House pnssed the bill to that eil'ect yesterday, and the Senate will undoubtedly follow suit. The movement was started by the late Henry Grady in 1889, who raised over $40,000 by pri vate subscription for the pur pose. A tract of 119 acres near Atlanta was purchased, and a substantial 'three-story building with seventy-five rooms was built thereon. After the completion of the Home, it was tendered to the state, but the proffer was refused, the Legislature at that time pre ferring to give its aid to the veterans in the way of pensions. The bill which passed the House yesterday, and which received the vote of Hon. J. B. Ayers, the Representative from Polk, makes the following provisions:— The sum of $16,000 is appropriated for maintaining and furnishing the same for the first year, but no part of this sum shall be expended until there are 46 applications for admission. There shall be a board of 11 trustees, one from each Congressional district, who shall have charge of the home and serve without compensation. These trustees shall appoint a super intendent at a salary not to exceed $600. Shall elect a treasurer, steward and such other assistants ns may be necessary. Ex-Oonfederate soldiers who are res idents of the state of Georgia and have been residents of the state for a term of five years, shall be admitted to the home, and these shall perforin such duties ns may be required by the superintendent. No soldier who is admitted to the home shall draw a pension from the state. Admissions shall be from the several counties of the state according to pop ulation. The people have asked for bread but are likely to get noth ing but a stone, in the matter of the reduction of the heavy war taxes. The republican majority now seems inclined to make the reduction solely in the interests of the beer trust, which would not be felt at all by the people—not even by the beer- drinker, for whom the rela tive proportions of beer and foam in the glass would be maintained as at present. - •• •• ■ v •• — TO BUILD SOUTHERN HOME.

Over-Work Weakens Your Kidneys. Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood. All the blood'ln your body passes through your kidneys once every three minutes. The kidneys are your blood purifiers, they fil ter out the waste or Impurities in the blood. It they are sick or out of order, they fall to do their work. Pains, achesandrheu- matism come from ex cess of uric acid in the blood, due to neglected kidney trouble. Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, and makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart Is over-working in pumping thick, kidney- poisoned blood through veins and arteries. It used to be considered that only urinary troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their begin ning in kidney trouble. j It you are sick you can make no mistake by first doctoring your kidneys.
