Country air, coun try light seem to make strong bodies, strong minds and strong souls. The freshness, the breadth and originality which come from close communion with nature are’nceded to give life and blood to the depleted urban system. From the beginning of our history the fanner has contributed great men to American business and politic*, pro- idmg intellectual and moral as well as physical material for the country, and we hive reason to be thankful that we can look to him for this also in the future, as well as for ths pro ducts of the scil.” Thomasville Quarantines •Against Jesup. Upon receipt of information Sunday that a case of yellow fever was repott ed in Jesup, Mayor Hopkins, With 1 is unial alertness, immediately wired Savannah and other places for reliable information. Liter in the day it was learned that Savannah and Alabama bad quarantined against the place and the.S, F. & W. had issued orders that no trains be allowed to stop thtre. Mayor Hopkins immediately declared quarantine by this p'ace and Sunday night and ycsterdiy all trains were inspected. Facts About-Artesian Wells. The ‘ Journal of ih^Franklin Insil lute” for September contains an article oh artesian well* by Oscar S. Garter, Professor of Geology and Mi leralogy in the Central' High School ot ibis' city, which is of general value'fqr the scientific data which it presents on a subject of utmost practical importance. Referring to this tbe Philadelph'a Record saysi “Concerning the superior purity of ar tesian water, there cannot be a ques tion. It would be obvious even to the unscientific mind that water which filters through hundreds of feet of rocky strata must free itself in the process from deleterious organic matter. As Professor . Carter, speak ing with all scientific confidence in'! spired by ample scientific tests, de clares: ‘Disease germs, which sewer age in river water renders so common, are unknown in artesian water, unless the Well be drilled to ajtvdri? popu lated district or the well be improper ly cased.” Thomasville is fortunate iq drawing her artesian water from oce of the deepest wells in the ffoutb, 1985 feet deep. Her water supply, coning as it doer, doubtless, from the P.edmoat regior, is overlaid by hundreds and hundreds oi feet of solid rock. No wonder it is pure. There is a marked absence of the usual summer s ekness in families who use artesian water exclusively. It saves doctors bills. Thomasville never mad* a better investment than when she bored for thispuie aDd ioexiaustable supp’y ot water.

In the midst of life we are in debt. There was many a slip io the Chero kee strip.
