HU discourse was a plain and practical presentation of Gospel truth, and was especially appropriate to the occasion. The music, which was in charge of Mr. Walter E. Good with Miss Myrta Dodds as pianist, was sung by male voices and was much appreelated. Public examinations were held yesterday morning, and are In progress this forenoon, which closes the work of the school year. least evening the rural comedy, “Mine Falls, or the Miller’s Daughter,” was pleasantly presented by pupils of the High School, the proceeds go ing to the benefit of the school library.

The annual commencement exorcises will be held at the Lyceum this evening, nnd Cedartown people have a rare treat In store for them. Hon. J. M. Griggs, one of South Georgia’s most popular statesmen and gifted speakers, will deliver the address of the occasion.

It is now estimated that there will he about 800 cars of peaches in North Georgia,but they will net considerably more than the 2,000 cars of last year. It Is mighty short-sighted business man who sends out of town to have his printing done. And, we are glad to say, practically all of Cedartowu’s business and professional men are a- ble to see beyond the end of their noses. Hrer's to the Georgia editors at Sandersville! Everything good is com ing their way this week, and whon they reach the Jamestown Exposition It is “dollars to doughnuts” that they will "work their faces'* on everything along the midway. Gen. Stephen D. Lee has beeu hon ored by re-election as Commander in Chief of the Confederate veterans at their great reunion in Richmond, and Gen. Clement A. Evans as Commander of the Tennessee Division. The next reunion will be held in Birmingham. Hon. Henry H. Revill, of Greenville, Is a candidate for City Court Judge in his county, and his host of friends throughout the state wish him suc cess. He is the worthy successor of a noble sire.and would grace that Judi cial position as he has every other sta tion in life. As editor, court steno grapher and Representative, he has done well and added to his army of friends and well-wishers. Here’s to his success! May he win abundantly. County Commissioners John L. Branch and Jol^n L. Moore were in the city Tuesday at a meeting of the Board, and with Commissioner T. H. Adams went over to Fish to receive the new iron bridge just constructed across Fish creek at the railroad crossing. This bridge is sixteen feet wide, and spans a rugged ford that has for years been a menance to the public on account of the proximity of the railroad. It cost the county a- bout $2,200, but there has long been I a clamor for this public convenience. HELP THE RIFLES. If you have not already done so, hand Capt. W. H. Trawick a liberal contribution toward paying the ex penses of the Cedartow n Rifles t® the Jamestown Exposition. This organization is of Inestimable value to every Individual and every home In Polk county, and our public spirited citizens now have an oppor tunity to show' their appreciation of this fact. A number of our best citizens are cheerfully “chipping in" for this pur pose. Hand in your contributions at once, as the boys will leave for their ten days outing Saturday, and they well deserve the trip. A special car will be attached to the 9.26 east bound train Saturday morning, and will be transferred to the regular troop train in Atlanta. May they have a jolly good time of it! AH members of the Rifles who expect to take this trip are urged by Capt. Trawdek to be at the Armory tomorrow evening for final prepara tions. Dr. Young J. Allen, for forty years a Methodist missionary in Chinn has passed away. He was one of the world’s greatest and most useful men. and Christian people of all climes will sincerely mourn his loss. On account of a delay on the part of the Board of Education in acting upon the unanimous recommendation of its Building Committee that an acre tract be purchased from Dr. Wm. Bradford for school purposes in East- view—the lot being the cheapest and best of any offered,—the opportunity of securing it has gone, it having been sold at a price twenty-five per cent over that asked from the city. We wish here to repeat our sugges tion that a suitable site should be se cured as early as possible. It is much cheaper to buy acreage property than houses and lots, and the East- view* school is rapidly becoming a necessity. A RECORD BREAKER.

A Block That w.. Once a. Large a. the Continent of Eirope. The small piece of chalk which Is lu constant use In the schoolroom, the lecture room, the billiard room and th*» workshop has n grange history, tli * unraveling of which through all its complexities is one of the most diffi cult problems with which the science ’ of the present day Is called upon to deal. This piece Is In reality a chip of an immense block of chalk that once filled an area the size of the continent of Europe aud of which even yet sev eral gigantic fragments remuiu. each buudreds of square miles in extent. These patches are scattered over the region * lying between Ireland on the west and China on the east and extend In, the other direction from Sweden In the north to Portugal In the south. In the British Isles the chalk Is found : In greatest perfection aud continuity In | the east nnd southeast of Eugland. A | sheet of chalk more than a thousand j feet in thickness underlies all that por tion of England which is situated to the southeast of a line crossing the is land diagonally from the North sea ot Flamborougb head to the coast on the English channel-in Dorset. This enor mous sheet of chalk Is tilted up slight ly on the west, aud Its depressed east ern portions that dip toward the wa ters of the North sea are usually bur led from sight by means of overlying sands and clays. Where the edges of the chalk floor come upon the sea the cliff scenery is strikingly grand and beautiful. Any one who hss once seen the magnificent rocks of Flamborougb and Beachy bead, the Jagged stacks of the Needles or the dizzy mass of Shakespeare’s cliff, near Dover, can understand why "the white cliffs of Albion" has grown Into a stock phrase. This massive sheet of chalk appears again In France, In many parts of Eu rope as far east as the Crimea and even in central Asia beyond the sea of Aral. How far It stretched westward Into what is now the Atlantic may nev er be known, but chalk cliffs of at least 200 feet In thickness are seen at An trim. In Ireland, nnd less conspicuous formations are found in Scotland, in Argyll and Aberdeen. There can be lit tle question that all these now isolated patches were once connected in a con tinuous sheet, which must therefore have occupied a superficial area about 3,000 miles long by nearly 1,000 broad, an extent larger than that of the pres ent continent of Europe. Clpthes do not make the man—es pecially the self-made man. Dr. William Holbeck, Dentist. Special attention given to Crown and Bridge and Porcelain Inlay work. Office: 2d floor Peek Bldg.. CEDARTOWN. GA. It Costs Nothing To find out for a certainty whether or not your heart is affected. One person in four has a weak heart; it may be you. If so, you should know it now, and save serious con sequences. If you have short breath, fluttering, palpitation, hungry spells, hot flushes; if you cannot lie on left side; if you have fainting or smother ing spells, pain around heart, in side and arms, your heart is weak, and perhaps diseased. Dr. Miics’ Heart Cure will re lieve you. Try a bottle, and see how quickly your condition will improve. “About a year ago I wrote to the Miles Medical Co., asking advice, as I was suffering with heart trouble, and had been for ’two years. I had pain breath for two years. Any little tion would cause palpitation, nnd I could not lie on my left side without suffering. They advised me to try Dr. Miles Heart Cure and Nervine, which having gained 14 pounds since I t menced taking it. I took about thir teen bottles of the two medicines, and haven’t been bothered with ray heart since.” MRS. LILLIE THOMAS. Upper Sandusky, Ohio.
