The six mouths’ old child ot Vlr,

An Indiana judge has pronounced
that the directeire gown i9 •. odest.
He .h elmed to order the arrest of a
young actress for appearing in one
or the street. “Iloai soil, que

The fact that tfve members of the

get into a poker game ought to be
regarded as a sign of return ng
prosperity.
If Governor Smith bad gotten on
to tb« convict lease question four
months sooner, he would have had
some effective campaign material.
A New Y ik man has invested a
new gun that will shoot fifty thous
and times a minute and uses no
powder. The Japanese will please
sit up and take notice.
As yet the lall down of the
Georgia delegation at Denver has
not been blamed en Hoke Smith.
But there is ample ti-me yet, and
Hoke is able to bear it; for “the
blood of the martyrs is the teed of
the choreh.”
At any >*ate, no sea serpents have
been seen off the coast of Georgia
this year. Score a point for prohi-
b*tion on that, ail right.
That visitation of bugs which At**
lanta recently exper.enced is of easy
explanation. While the legislature
is in session Atlanta always seems
to be bughouse—full of humbugs.
Senator Brock w aits to te?tify in
his own behalf. Well, if the*e.i»
anything the senator can say in his
own behalf the folks ought to hear

There are two ways of spending a
dollar. You can spend it at hosne,
gain an easy conscience, make an
other friend ai d perhaps get the
dollar hack tomorrow; or you can
send it away, feel that you Lave

business man and lorever lose the

good to yourself and neighbor.

If you see a married woman pub

gowns with a slit open up to the
Lips you know who’s boss in that

The moraliiy of immorality, des
cencv or indecency of the convict
question is squarely up to the Geor

equal to the emergency.

These are horrible disclosures
that are being made about Georg a’s
convict system. Of course hey are
to an extent exagemted, and the
mbuman treatment wh eh has bsea
brought to light is the exception
and not the rale. There cannot
help but be abuses where*or a large
number of criminals have to be dealt
with, but if only hall of wuat has
been told is trii<* Georgia’s manage

What To Dr.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer s
Swamp-Root, the great kidiiey remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pair tn tne back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and U> get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of .Swamp-Root
is soon realized. It stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing eases. If you need a medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug
gist sdn fift^-cent and one-do!lar sizes.
You may have a sample bottle and

about it, both sent free
