The spread of the prohibition Senti
ment in Georgia and Florida, has been
tliecanse of much remarks of late.
Within the last few months, twenty-five
counties in Florida have voted dry,
among them are Jefferson and Jackson
onr near neighbors.
Scarcely a month passes bat that a
prohibition election is held in Georgia
and almost invariably with the same
result; a majority for the dry side. Col
quitt and Talaiferro are the latest ad
ditions to the prohibition column.
Wherever an election between the
advocates of bar rooms and a dispensary
has been held, the result has.' in nearly
every case favored^ the dispensary. •
Agitation for high license is being
vigorously waged in many cities.
Moralists everywhere find signs of
hope in these facts, and can read in
clear letters the doom of the open bar
room.

All of ns can call to mind several in
stances where the nagger dr the naggess
gets in work, and there must of necessi
ty be much more of this than appears to
the public view. Of all the minor liabits
calculated to drain life of its sweetness,
and shnt out life from its light, it seems
to us that nagging in the worst.
The nagger is to private life what the
knocker is to the business world. Not
long since, a minister of the'gospel in
Iowa quit *»is pulpit and left his wife,
stating publicly that he did so because
she was a “nagger” and had made his
life unbearable. He admitted that it
wasJjis duty to be patient and remain
at her side, bat said that even Cliristian
fortitude was not always adamant.
Many a happy home lias been blighted
by the nagger. The nagger is not con
fined to the gentler sex. There are
plenty of male naggers; they contribute
their share to the particular and general
stock of unhappiness. We know that if
yon are not a nagger you will agree

novel reading.
Just listen to the new editor of the
Cordele Sentinel on novel-reading.
“Of all the evils that infest modern
society, we do not believe that there is
one so wide-spread in its ruinous ten
dencies as this one; it inflames the im
agination to riotousness, it softens the
intellect to voluptuousness, it weakens
the memory apd destroys the originality
and individuality of the mind, disposing
it to take things for granted without
the trouble of farther investigation, and
predisposes today-dreaming.”
The book trust will have to subsidize
that fellow. And think ht^w sad all
the great novelists now sleeping in
their graves, would feel if they could
only know how the Cordele man re
gards their work.
