THE RECORD.
PUBLISMRD BVRRY FRIDAY BY
SOUTHERN PUBLISHING CO.
INCORPORATED.
A. H. MECKLIN, | Editor.
K. E. McCRACKEN,
Entered at the post office as second-class
mail matter.
Rates of subscription: #1.00 per year; 60
cents for six months and 26 cents for
three months.
Looks Bad, but its True.
Last year the Record made con¬
tracts with the Co-Operative Med-
ldine Company ot Cincinnati, O.,
lor advertising Gooch’s Mexican
Syrup, Mother’s Worm Syrup,
File-ine and Gooch’s Mexican Root
Pills. It is not often we get picked
up and somehow or other we failed
to investigate this firm’s reliability,
but promptly extended them the
credit asked. This week our draft
for the amount due was returned
unpaid, with no excuse, The
firm has been exposed several times
in the last three month* as no good
and we reluctantly add our own
exparience with them as another
evidence of their unreliability.
Pi inters are warned to steer clear
of them, or require cash with order,
we have thrown out their advertis¬
ing.
It goes against the grain to ad
mit it, yet we are anxious to warn
others of danger. We were “pick*
ek up” again. This time by the In¬
dependent Advertising agency in
Chicago, advertising the Interna
tional Aural Clinic, for six months
advertising, but we promise you
that if they ever get an ad in the
Record again they will pay cash in
advance, and double at that.
Yes, while we are confessing
our sins, we will tell another. The
Inter-State Advertising agency of
Philadelphia, that city of brotherly
love, induced us to run an ad for
the Educational Manufacturing
Co., offering a mechanical device
intended to make the poorest
writer a splendid penman in a few
days. This too has been consigned
to the Hell Box, and their names
put on our list of dead beat*, be¬
cause of their failure to respond to
drafts, letters or anything.
We hope our readers will profit
by our experience and let these
people severely alone. They are
not worthy of patronage.
City Court Postponed.
It appearing that an adjourned
term of Rabun Superior Court will
be held on the first Monday in May.
and that many of the attorneys
having cases in the City Court will
be in attendance at tbe Rabun
Court. It is therefore ordered that
the term of the City Court for
Clarkesville be postponed from the
ist Monday in May to the 2d Mon¬
day in May, and that parties,j urors
and witnesses called for the 1st
Monday in May will be required
to be in attendance on the 2nd
Monday in May. It is further or¬
dered that tbis order be entered on
the minutes of said court. This
April 24th, 1902.
J. B. JONES, Judge.
Sam Jones is lecturing for
Guerry, and only charges 25/ per
seat to his audience for the high
honor of hearing him spout. Of
couse the Rev. Sam gives Terrell
and Estill fits, but a careful search
all over the state will fail to reveal
a single Guerry vote that he has
made by big wind. With the great
trio of “Preacher Pop-Prohis,”
Broughton,Jones and Scab Wright,
working for him, Mr. Guerry
should pray the Lord to deliver him
from his fool friends.
Editor Revi 11 of Greenvill makes
the following merry thrust at the
Macon candidate because of his
support of Hon. Joe Hall for the
house in Bibb:
Hon. B. S. Willingham, author.,
of the house Willingham bill in the
legislature of 1900, will be a can*
didate for the senate for the
counties of Pike, Monroe and Bibb.
Of course Mr. Guerry will work
for Willingham as he told Messrs
Nunnaly and Pringle he would.
On the other hand, the genial and
gifted Joe Hall, Mr. Guerry’s part¬
ner, is also a candiate for legislative
honors, we believe. Now the Hon.
Joseph is by no means a prohibi¬
tionist in preaching or practice.
As lie is touring the state in be¬
half of Guerry, Guerry must try
to get Hall elected. What a funny
cartoon it would be representing
Guerry standing between Willing¬
ham and Hall with a hand on the
head of each and saying, 1« bless
you, my brethren, »» That would
be a mixed benediction of prohi¬
bition and whiskey-”
Sam Jones and Broughton made
big boasts in Atlanta last year that
Jim Woodward, should uot be
elected alderman, and Jim went in
with a bigger majority than his
best friends hoped for. Reason—
Broughton and Jones were against
him, Now they are for Guerry,
and just watch how neatly Guerry
will be told to stay at home.
Teddy should hurl a few stento¬
rian shouts of anger at the uncon¬
quered Filipinos. If they only knew
how they do disgust him by re¬
spectfully declining to be benevo¬
lently assimilated they would sur¬
render at once.—Dawson News.
The following news item appears
in a Kansas paper of recent date :
< * Bill Damm’s daughter, Grace,has
the scarlitaua and the whole Damm
family is quarantined.

JUDGING COLORS.
lt Is Not So Simple a Matter as One
Would Imagine.
Most persons think they have a
fair discriminating power in match-
ing colors, but a little test will usu-
aily show that their power in that
respect is woefully below the high-
est standards.
An expert in dyeing fabrics in a
modern mill or factory requires first
of all unusual powers of judging
colors, and the keenness and accu-
racy of his eyes in this respect are
something While remarkable.
tinguish most people can easily dis-
between pink, scarlet, car-
dinal and magenta when seen sep-
arately, it is quite a test to point
them out accurately when mixed to-
gether in the dyehouse. But even
this feat is small compared with the
work of distinguishing the different
delicate shades which are used for
dyeing. In the dyehouse one must

oe able to discriminate accurately
and quickly, for example, between
a dyed color of 1 per cent and 1.1
per cent. Place these two dyes to¬
gether, and not one in a thousand
would see any difference between
them unless he had been trained
to judge colors. The difference is
so delicate that even experts some-
times require the two shades togeth¬
er to make an accurate decision.
The power of judging colors is a
matter of training the memory. The
measurement of this color memory
decides the man’s actual worth to
any dyeing establishment. It is a
pretty serious and expensive matter
to have dye experts make errors in
matching colors, for thousands of
yards of material may be dyed be¬
fore the mistake is detected.
“One might think that this exact-
ing work of matching and discrim-
mating hard between colors would be
on the eyes,” explained a fac-
tory superintendent, “but just the
reverse is the case. The eye grows
in strength and keenness, and the
powers of color memory become ab-
normally strong. If an expert had
to deal entirely with one color or
shade, his eyes would soon become
weak, and he would lose all power
of discrimination. But multitudes
of colors presented to the eyes all
the time keep them strong and
healthy.
“Of course some of the shades are
so much alike that it is almost as
bad as gazing at one color, and it
would be for the average eye, but
the color expert gets a rest and
change even in these delicate
shades.”—New York Times.
