Germ Infected Ait*. Malaria is not confined exclusively, to the swamps and marshy regions of the country, but wherever there is bad air this insidious ioe to health is found. Poisonous vapors and gases from sewers, and the musty air of damp cellars are laden with the germs of this miserable disease, which are breathed into the lungs and taken up by the blood and transmitted to every part of the body.

Yet how different to the i one who, instead of seeing a summit to i attain, looks down rather than up, and i sees in the near distance the brink tf 3 a dark river to which he money rapidly. It is hard to sympa thise with people wholoee money in this way, and yet it is due to an ignorance of the fundamental principles of morality, and this ignorance can only he cured by education. Mpdem commercialism has led too many of our people to measure life, by the amount of money accumulat ed rather than by .the amount of service rendered. The man whose highest aim is to “get rich” is apt to violate the moral law, if not the statues of the state, in hia efforts to secure the object; of his search, says the Commoner. It is use less to preach honesty or equity to such a man. As long as the purpose remains it is likely' to break all the'restraints placed.ppon it.- When money becomes the master the man who possesses it is i really possessed by it and is in bondage unto it. It is not even necessary to pos sess money become a servant; a poor man who regards money as the measure of success can be as subservient to mam mon as the most, opulent. . The frauds that have been perpetrated by the turf investment companies and similar swindling gangs can be turned to a useful purpose if,they lead parents to impress upon the minds of their children th<f vicionsness of all schemes that prom ise profits out of proportion to the in vestment, or profits to be secured by chance or luck. There is only one honest and honora ble* way of accumulating money, and that i8to give to society a service equal to the compensation received. If young men are taught that it is better to be un derpaid tlian overpaid, better that they give overflowing than scant measure, they will be proof against all kinds of deception and fraud. If a swindler, when hepffers something for nothing; is met with the reply that the person addressed is not willing to accept something for noticing,'he will'go away in search of greener pastures. It is possible to ren der a child immune to the gambling dis ease that seems to be epidemic at pres ent, hut it must be done by inculcating a proper view 1 of life. Manhood and wo manhood, not money, must be made tlie standard, and the child must be taught 1 that no amount of ill-gotten wealth can make a person worthy of respect—much less of envy. * * you begin to feel out of sorts without'ever suspecting the cause. No energy or appetite, dull headaches, sleepy and lnBB tired and completely fagged out from the slightest exer- «|fl& tion, are some of the deplorable effects of this enfeebling fill! malady. As the disease progresses and the blood becomes ^ more deeply poisoned, boils and abscesses and dark or yellow spots appear upon the skin. When the poison is left to ferment and the microbes and germs to multiply in y -1 the blood, layer and Sidney troubles and other serious complications often arise. As Malaria begins and develops in therblood, the treatment to be t effective must begin there .too, S. S.

Youth cannot too highly value the years,- the months, the days—even the hours—as they pass. Each day is a step toward age. Do not waste time* Do not fritter your days away in folly that is worse than purposeless. One cannot be working or engaged upon serious matters all the time. Recreation and amusements have their place. With many people there are hours each day just flittered away; going' for neither work, study nor amusement. It is an idle nooning between doing things; a drawing out the processes of work. In stead of doing things heartily, whether it bevaludy, work or.play, they idle along.

Along toe gutters on toe streets the rain had washed it in considerable quantities, and in some places it was found floating on the sur face of the water where toe water had collected in little puddles. Large numbers of citizens gathered at places where the dust had accumulated and discussed the phenomenon. All practically agreed that toe dust was probably the dust from some volcanic eruption in Central America and had been waftqd to this seofcior' breeze from that direction.^ donbtedly sulphurous, aftd no ^ * ex planation could account for its presence. ’ ’ The same phenomenon was noticed in Thomasville a few days ago. Just after the heavy rains of last Monday, a yel lowish sediment settled on the sidewalks' and yards throughout' the city. A num ber of people noticed the, saffroh lined dust, and commented npon it. It may be that Thomasville people are all afflic ted with nasal catarrh or the pious at mosphere of our city drives away all thought- of fire and brimstone. Be that as it may, no one ^noticed a sulphurous odor here. • ' Tlie perfectly natural explanation that toe deposit was pollen from the blooming trees and flowers, that make the bpd. beautiful at present %as suggested. It may he that our North Georgia brethren are correct. Per haps a flock of Volcanic. dust par ticles was migrating toward the north in search of cooler weather. One thing is certain, North Georgia is not ahead of South Georgia, in this instance. We had our.shower—sulphur, pollen or what not—before Athens did. We have not heard of the presence of Hon. Jo seph Pelee Hall in South Georgia, or the matter might be easily explained. , "A Jacksonville woman has syed her husband for divorce because she found three red hairs on his coat.

He seemed so n^nch interested in it that Senator Quay asked what he was reading. “This,” explained the .New York “Boss” as he turned the pages slowly, “is a reprint of a curious volume much thought of by William Penn and his followers, but which I am told is hardly known among their descendants” “And what is it called?*’’asked toe Penn sylvania statesman.
