TO THE PUBLIC.
MAKE IT SHORT.
Au exchange gives the following good
advice : Long visits, long stories, long
essays, long exhortations and long pray
ers seldom profit those who have to do
with them. Life is short. Time is
short. Moments are precious. Learn
to condense, abridge and intensify.
We can bear thingB that are doll if they
are only short. We can endure many
aches and ills if it is over soon, while
even pleasure grows insipid, and pain
intolerable, if they are contracted bt.
yond the limits of reason and conven
ience. Learn to be short. Crop oil the
branches, stick to the main side of your
:ase. If yon pray ask for what you be
lieve you will receive, and get through ;
if you speak, tell your message and hold
your peace ; if you write, boil down two
sentences into one and three words into
two.
HANNA OUT OF IT.

The dot contest is over and ten persons

The Summer School fond Is growing
a little day by day and as it slowly
grows the time for working np the
school grows shorter. We shonld com
plete this fond at once.
The Banner wants to see that new
dormitory erected by the side of tho

We shonld not wait nntil next year to

oomplete the fond at once.
We image that the interview given
to the public with Mr. Hanna, in which
he declares that he doesn’t "want the
job" of being President, nor would he
take it, must furnish comforting reading
to the President and his friends. In
spite of his repeated statements that he
was not a candidate for the Presidency,
Mr. Hanna has been regarded as the
most likely man to pit against the pres
ent occupant of the White House, and
his protestations were not generally re
garded as being the iiual word upon the
subject.
It is so often the case now that men
flirt with public questions and evade
positive and defluite answers, that e
bare statement frem a public personag.
to the effect that he is not a candidate
for a given 'position is often taken cc
mean practically a bid for the public-
favor and support. In this frank and
emphatic declaration made by Mr
Hanna there is no ground upon which
to base such a doubt. Whatever Mr.
Hanna’s views as to his availability or
desirability as a candidate may be, he
has now put the tissue at rest beyond
possibility of recall. “I want to say
now and for all time that I don’t want

form other constructions as to shades of
meaning. The language is full, em
phatic and final, and unless the Sena
tor has been incorrectly quoted, it re
moves from Mr. Roosevelt's path the
most formidable obstruction to his nom
ination. What may happen Bbould Mr.
Hanna, in getting out of the way him
self, throw his influence to some other
candidate, can not be determined now.
lhe question as to whether he will sup
port or oppose Roosevelt for the nomi
nation has not been settled in so far as
the public knows, but it will doubtless
be comforting for the President to
know defiuately that he will not have
to run against the big Ohio boss. That
much, at least, is settled by Mr. Han
na’s blunt and frank interview.

.Docs It Pay To Buy Cheap.
A cheap remedy for coughs and colds
is all right, but you want something
that will relieve and cure the more se
vere and dangerous results of throat
and lung troubles. What shall you do?
Go to a warmer and more regular cli
mate? Yes, if possible; if not possible
for you, then in either case take the
only remedy that has been introduced
in all civilized countries with success in
severe throat and lung troubles, "Bosch-
ee’s German Syrup.” It not only heals
and stimulates the tissues to destroy the
germ disease, but allays inflammation,
canses easy expectoration, gives a good
night’s rest, and cures the patient. Try
one bottle. Recommended many years
by all druggists in the world. You can
get this reliable remedy at H. R. Pal
mer & Sons. Get Green’s Special A1

In the opinion of Mrs. Myrick, when
the students of Booker T. Washington’s
industrial school cheered General Gor
don’s statement that the white man of
the S-uth was the best friend of the
negro the other day, they administered
a rebnke to the Repnbllcan politicians
who puff the black man up with vain
hopes of political domination.
Oaptaln John Triplett declines to en
ter the raoe for mayor of ’TVupasvlUe
and thus that olty U deprived ot .^9
privilege of putting one of the very best
men In the whole state at the head of
the city government. Had Oaptaln Trip
lett oonsented to make the raoe he would
have been elected without opposition, at
there is not a man in Thomasville con
netted enough to think he could hare
* won over this noble-hearted man.
A. J. Suell wanted to attend a party,
but was afraid to do so on account of
pains in his stomach, which he feared
wonld grow worse He says, "I was
telling my troubles to a lady friend,
who said : ’Chamberlain’s Colic, Choi
eaa and Diarrhoea Remedy will put you
in condition for the party.’ I bought
bottle and take pleasure in stating that
two doses cured me and enabled me to
have a good time at the party.” Mr.
Snell is a resident of Summer Hill, N.
Y. This remedy is for sale by all drug
gists.
