Mr. Atkinson has introduced a bill

The new road law was killed in the

One of the saddest features of the

The United States has a lawyer to
every goo of its population. “It is
pleasant to think,” says the Boston
Transcript, ‘ that these legal gentle
men are not likely to be bought up by
an English syndicate. Therefore, when
900 of our people get together, they
will still have the satisfaction ol know

ed. A large number of compositions
have been sent in and are in the hands
of a committee who will decide the
matter soon.
Stopping the Sale of Cigarettes.
Dealers in cigarettes had better be
reducing their stocks. The hill pro
hibiting their sale has passed, and
thcic is no doubt about the governor
signing it. And then it will be a law
of tbc state. The Constitution says:
The cigarette bill lias passed the
house and will become a law, for Gov
ernor Gordon will sign it.
That means that the sale of cigar
ettes, tobacco or cigarette papers to
minors is prohibited.
The bill passed the senate July 17,
without a dissenting vote.
It was read the first time in the
house July 20, and has been lingering
ever since.
Mr. Tignor, of Muscogee, moved to
take up the “cigarette bill.” There
was no objection and the bill was lead
and passed—yets 00, nays none.
The bill, as passed, provides that it
shall not be lawful for any person or
persons, either by himself or tlicir-
selves, to sell, furnish, give or provide
any minor or minors with cigarettes,
tobacco or cigarette paper, or any
substitute therefor. The penalty pro
scribed for the violation of this law is
the same as provided for misdemeanor
4,310 of the code, which is imprison
meut nor more than a thousand dollar
fine, oue or both, in the discretion of
the court.
This is a law which should he rig
idly enforced. Wc hope it will he in
Thomasville.
Absenteeism in the Legislature.
The usual thin attendance was no
ticed about the House in Atlanta yes
terday. This is too bad. Mr. Snel-
son may do the state some service
after all.—Augusta Chronicle.
Some of the men who have been
snubbing Snelson (though it must be
admitted that Snelson has overdone
the thing) some of these members, we
say, may get left at home next time.
There is a kind of an old fashioned,
quaint, half-forgotten idea oozing
into the heads of the pconle.that when
a man is sent to the legislature and
religiously draws his 84 per diem, he
ought to stay there and attend to bus
iness— unless providentially called
away. Members who have been gal-
avantin’ around, on free passes, draw
ing their pay all the same, caunot
blind the public to their shorttomings
by ridiculing the member from Meri
wether. *

The Red Man’s Origin.
A Georgian has discovered more
than a hundred American Indian
names—names of rivers, towns, etc.,
which must have been taken from a
map of Rome many centuries ago.
Tuscaloosa, he says, comes from Tus-
culum, the country seat of Horace.
Sookatonchee, a srnaH river in Mis
sissippi, he derives from sukos, figs,
and aqua, water—or the “river of
figs.” This, however, would lie an
amalgam of two languages,since ‘sukos’
is Greek, anil ‘aqua’ is Latin.
It is an interesting study to trace
through all tongues the unity of the
race—“the brotherhood of God and
the brotherhood of man.” The public
will await developments of other phi
lologists in this direction with anxiety.

My disease (psoriasis) first broke out on my

most covering my lace. It ran into my eyes,
and the physician was afraid I would lose my
eyesight altogether. It spread all over my head,
and my hair foil out, until I was entirely bald-
headed; it then broke out on my arms and
shoulders, until my arms were just one sore. It
covered my entire body, my face, head, and
shoulders being the worst. The white scabs fell
constantly from iny head, shoulders and arms;
the skin * would thicken and be red and very
itchy, and would crack and bleed if scratched.

A New Grade of Cotton Which is Being
Watched.
Rai.kioii, N. C., September 17.- •
Cotton planters in this state are
watching with particular interest the
practical tests, on a large scale, of the
merits of what is known us the “Bai
ley" cotton, which takes its name
from Hector Bailey, a colored man,
who was its discoverer in Harnett
county in 1885. The stalk resembles
that of ordinary cotton, hut is stouter.
The leaves differ widely from those
usually secu. They are very long
and shaped like a hand. The flowers
are of large size, and so arc the bolls.
The seed are large and very black,
while the staple is ucnrly as long ns
that of sea island cotton, and is silky
in texture. It was at first thought
that this cotton was the nary cotton,
hut it is now known that this idea
was erroneous, and that the discovery
is really that of a new variety of up
land cotton. Captain Octavius Coke,
a well known planter near Raleigh,
has several acres of the “Bailey” cot
ton in growth, fvhich is now maturing,
There is nn offer of sixteen cents per
pound for the cotton, which is all to
bo specially ginned. The seed will
all be handled by the Brinlcy Cotton
company, of this city, which sells
county rights. The plantation of
Captain Coke is upland, but a few
miles west of here this cotton is being
tested on bottom land. An inspection
of the plants shows that they are
heavily fruited nnd have stood remar
kably well the trying ordeal of a cold
and wet summer.

She bought a bottle of Dr. King’s Xew Dis
