Valdosta State fair seems to be
A howling success, but we have
not heard of Carrie Nation and her
little hatchet yet.
The great trial of Mollineux is

That Atlanta depot congloiner.

THE WAR UPON PROFANITY.
Qf ujj the bad habils of men pro* *
fanity U one of Hie silliest and most
disgusting. It i« 9l«0 perhaps the
most prevalent, and is becoming
“Jill more common, saysdbe Atlanta
Journal.
We do not wonder that several
states have enaetud laws dgaiiHd
Use of pYOfikne langucge in pub
lic and tl’.ut woman in many com
munities are conducting an organ
ized warfare upon this vulgar vice.
No person has a right to befoul
tlit air with oaths in the presence
of ladies or gentlemen either, as for
that matter.
The laws for the surpression of
profanity should be enforced rig
idly,-and it is the duty of all good
citizens to aid this reform.
Policemen are entirely too lux in
their enforcement of anti-prolanity
statutes and ordinances.
Like most citizens of this “free”
country they .are apt to regard
“cussm” us it is elegantly^termed
by the cultured “gents” - who ex
hibit it as an excusable indulgence.
There may be nations which are
more addicted to . gambling than
we, nations that drink more and
number more drunkards; but we
doubt if there is any nation that
indulges more geneiously in profan
ity, or goes to greater excesses in
that nasty habit.
It is a very rare experience to
travel on a ruilroud cur which is
given to gentlemen (?) and fail to
hear frequent oaths and impreciu-
tions in the ruu of ordinury con
versation.
Some men cannot make the most
(rival remark without embellishing
it witlf an oath or a string of them.
If these expletives had any roean-i
ing orginally, it would be lost by
the perfunctory manner in which
they are used,
Many boys of the present day
initiate and attempt to rival coarse
men in profanity. These juvenile
upstarts consider it a big thing to
swagger and swenr and every man
of sense and dignity who hears
them do so cannot repress n strong
desire to spank them soundly.
The parental rod cun hardly find
better provocation than such swash
buckling sons give.
Are we to degenerate still futher
in this respect? We observe that
the young Indies of several Nebras
ka town have joined in an effort at
reform which should be extended
throughout the whole country and
would probably produce whole
some results. The young women
have decided thut they will receive
no attentions from men who no
toriously use profane language.
What right has such a man to
expect that n pure, refined woman
shall respect, or even tolerate him?
We hope to see this ctusnde
against the “cussin”’ habit carried
forward until every nutn that be
comes notorious by reason of his
vile speech shall he marked and
dispised man by the better element
of the communinty in which he
lives.

A LESSON.
Tampa Tribune.
llnjf way round the earth a
noted Viennese surgeon and Ins
assistants have hurried to min : ster
to a baby American girl, who can
not walk.
The treatment for which the
specialist has dropped his pressing
duties in the Austrian capital may
keep him near the bedside of the
child in Chicago u month; but the
ultimate result of hi* efforts, it m
fondly hoped, will be that llic little
one will be cured.

eiation so that his cherished child
will be able to run und play like
the grimy little tots who frolic
about the curb stones ol an even
ing in squalid streets on the West
Side.
The Armour child was born with
shallow hips sockets, and lier thigh'
bones slip out,and fail to support
the weight of her body. She will
have to lie rigid in a plaster cast
for months, while Prof. Adalph
Lorenz’s assistant watches to see
that she is properly cared for. At
the end of that time nature is ex
pected to have remedied her mistake
witli the millionare’s child, and
made glad an unhappy home of
luxury.
The lesson in this is not the
devotion of the father, strongly
indicated as it is. His expenditure
involves no sacrifice of money,
when his wealth is considered.
Probubly it convinced that with
it he could buy her perfect health
with his whole fortune, the finan
cial world would feel the shock of
millions ofcapitol suddenly shifted.
The lesson is that every parent
who has u bright, sound, healthy
chitd—whether there is money to
humor all its wants or not—has a
new inspiration for gratitude to un
all-wise power. .
CAUTION!
