IF I WERE YOU.
George If. Murphy In June St. Nicholas.
If I were you, I often say
To those who seem to need ml vice,
I’d always look before I leaped;
I'd always think if orer twice.
And then I’d hen re a troubled sigli-
For, after all, I’m only I.
I'd never discuss, if I were you,
The failings of my fellow men :
I'd think of all their virtues first,
Ind scan my own shortcomings then,
Hut, though all this is good and true
I am hut I; I am not you.
If I were jou and half so vain,
Amidst my folly I would pause
> sec how dull and light a fool
I was myself. I don’t because —
(And here I heave a pitying sigh >
I am not you : I'm only I.
If I were you, no selligh care
Should chase my chetrv smile away :
I'd scatter round me lovtand hope:
I'd do a kindness every day,
But here again I find it true
That I am I and yon ere you.
I would not he so very quick
To take offense, if I were you :
I would respect myself, at least,
Whatever others say or do.
Alas ! can no one tell me why
I am not you instead of I ?
u short, if I were only you
And could forget that I was I,
I think that little cherub wings
Would sprout upon me by aud by.

Will Hawes Run?
The Atlanta correspondent of the
Augusta Chronicle, writes as follows,
touching the second district:
“Crisp nml Blount are the only
members ot the present House who
are certain ot rc-election,” was the
way 11 prominent Alliance leader
summed up the situation at Alliance
headquarters yesterday. ‘'liven Tur
ner will have opposition. Col. Hawes,
of his district, is anxious to make the
race, ami will swallow the sub-
treasury bill and everything. He is
hard at work now, and can he looked
upon to make things lively for the
old man. Jim Guerry would like to
run, hut he is also anxious to hold on
to the good thing lie has in his judge
ship. Yes, its going to be lively down
there—and everywhere else in the
state, I might say.”
It Was Lawyer Proof.
Seven of the supposed-to-be the sharp
est and wisest lawyers in the country
have made wills and passed away, and
the said wills have been broken all to
Hinders by heirs and other lawyers.
An ignorant Missouri farmer wrote
his will in four lines on a slate, and it
stood three lawsuit and ten lawyers.

Q.—Is the house you live in hired
or is it owned by the head or a mem
her of the family? A.—Kind o’squat

Q.—If owned by the head or mem

mortgaged to Wanamaker. A count

I have used 8. 8. 8. for a number of
years, and consider it the best tonic and

In the corner stone of a Protestant
F.piscopal church, whose erection was
begun last week in Brooklyn, there
was placed a phonograpic cylinder,
incased in tin, upon which a member
had spoken, in the name of the con
gregation, a message to those who
shall at some future time uncover the
stone.
The Quitman Press, like all the
other leading papers of Georgia, is
down on Livingston and his sub
treasury scheme. Brother Hanlon is

After the farmers have thoroughly
investigated the plan, which they will
and should do, lew will seriously con
sider its practicability. The farmers |
want relief—and will and should have
it—hut he will get it through a better j
source than the sub treasury plan.
Some country editor will probably
call out .Stanton of the Constitution.
Hear him :
“A minister having invited a coun
try editor to exhort in n meeting, the
latter wan “carried away” with Ins
theme, and, in calling moiincr* to the
altar, exclaimed: "Come now, while
we ring; don’t put it oil' until to mor
row; now is the accepted time; now is
the time—to subsetibe!” " I
A New Cotton Gin.
Referring to a new and greatly im
proved gin, just invented, the Const!
tution says:
“This invention docs away entirely
with the saws that have heretofore
been used to strip the lint from the
seed. The saws do their work ef
fectively, so lar as separating the lint
from the seed is concerned, but
the press the fiber is torn and broken
to a considerable extent, and there
has been a constant demand for a gin
that would deal less roughly wi'h the
lint.
Such agin, according to opr cor
respondent. has at last been invented
by Mr. J. R. Montague, a jeweler and
watch-maker of Syracuse. His inven
tion is called the Montague Roller
Gin, and the company that will have
it in charge is composed of both
southern and northern business men.”
The Color Line.
For the first time in 11 number of
years, we believe, the army of the
United States has been called upon
to preserve peace and order in the
South. It was in New Orleans on
the Federal decoration day, and the
parties belligerent or threatening were
the white and the colored “grand
army” men—Republicans all, the
Democrats having nothing to do with
it. And the matter of dillcrecee was
the “color line”—the white G. A. II.
men refusing to march with the col«
ored G. A. It. Secretary of War
Proctor instructed the commander of
Custer post (white) at New Orleans
to place the cemetery under command
of his troops —Atlanta Journal.
