“HOME, HOME SWEET HOME.”
Tuesday, May 8, ia the one humlreuth anniversary
lit the'date whfen “Home Sweet Home" *.vas first sung
and oddly enough this internationally known air,
written by an American, and which is better known
than the national anthem, was first sung in a for
eign country, England, and it was London that first
suggested it celebration of the anniversary.
On May 8, 1823, the song was sung as a part of the
opera, "The Maid of Milan,” in Covent Garden the
atre, London, and from that date it immediately be
came the most popular song on “homo” ever sung
and it will remain thus for many more hundreds of
years.
The song was written by John Howard Payne, a
wanderer, though possessing an intellect of rare
ability and an artist’s temperament that was never al
lowed to flower into its full possibilities. The world
that John Howard Payne lived in never fully appre
ciated him as is so often the case, especially with
aiiists and playwrights, and the chances are - that
ifjthfe had never penned this immortal song he would
have been forgotten long years ago. Hut Payne ufote
thfc immortal of all song; he wrote on an immortal
subject; and by connecting Home and Mother together
in'-the sentiments of his song he touched the heart-
stHngs 6f nearly every human being. It'matters not
whether his words were inspired in loneliness or
through reveries of a real home back in the happy
days of memory, they strike the pathos and love of
every person who has had a home and loved it, who
has had a mother and loved her.
John Howard Payne never had a home of his own;
he never married and with his mate made a nest of
their own. Perhaps he best appreciated home on this
account. Romance has it that he once loved an
Athens maiden, once visited here and offered his
heart and hand to this Athens girl but the romance
never materialized in marriage and Payne died a
lonely bachelor and now after 100 years the' entire
world pays tribute to his immortal song:
“M/d pleasures and palaces, though we may roam,
Be it ever so humble, there is no place like home;
A charm from the sKfes seems to hallow us there,
Which, seek through the world, is ne’er met with
elsewhere.”
“Home, home sweet, sweet home, *
There’s no place like home,
There’s no place like home.”
A FINE BEGINNING
9 Nine Clarke county farmers today have reason to
believe Athens really wan ts to help the producer of
food. . These nine farmers brought produce to the
Curb Market Saturday and went away with cash
money, having sold out completely by noon. They did
this, despite a downpour of rain, which would have
kept the average man at home if he could have
stayed. Nevertheless over $100 in produce, fresh
from the farm, sold at the Curb Market in a few hours.
Athens women, many o’f them, wero at the market
when the first automobile with its produce aboard ar
rived. The news then quickly spread to others that
a half dozen or more farmers had braved the stormy
weather to bring vegetables and other articles to
. Athene. The sales kept moving. Umbrella in one
•hand and "change” in the other, men and women
walked from one auto to another on the Curb buying
the vegetables and produce brought to the city.
Everyone connected with the market was pleased.
Next Saturday, the second day of the Curb Market,
will see it in full blossom if the weather is at all
agreeable. The success of the first day regardless of
the' weather puts the hope within all that, at last,
a plan has been found to give the producer a little
boost. It will lead to great things in the future, if
• producer and consumer keep it going and there is
reason to believe they will, do just that thing.
We’ve overdone the art of salesmanship. It’s time
to cultivate more intelligence in buying, according to
Theodore H. Price. That’s true. Schools of sales
manship exist on every hand. But you never heard of
’a school to train buyers. Until we have them, business
will be without a balance wheel, no scientific equili
brium.
All men don’t marry wives—some are married by
them, comments Prof. Ernest R. Groves of Boston
University. It’s an old line of patter with a new twist.
Whether men really select and court their wives, or
whether they are kidded into thinking they do (after
the girls select them), is an old-subject of controversy.
What difference does it make, if both are happy af
terward? Selection on the average is 60-60.
The world now has 2764 different languages and
dialects, according to experts on talking. Is is any
wonder countries do not understand each other, are
ruspicious,'distrustful? We should have an inter
national language, such as Esperanto, for ihe same
reasons that we have an international Morse code for
telegraphy. It’ll come, ns soon as someone figures
(jut how to make money by bringing it about Profit
is the generator of progress.
§ .We’ve rpached a point in this country where booms
are no longer safe, claims Theodore H. Price, able
publisher of Commerce and Finance magazine. “In
dustry no longer needs the stimulus of abnormality.
KW6 can avoid alternating depression and inflation
nby refraining from becoming victims of our own en
thusiasm." That’s easy—if the nation really wants
to stabilize. Depression always is the direct result
of hoggishness—dishonesty, a national epidemic of
trying™ get more than we give in return.
Great preparations art be
ing made by the members of
the local order of Elks for the
National Convention which it
bo held in Atlanta in July. A

"Dodson’s Liver Tone” Straightens You Up Better Than
Salivating, Dangerous Calomel and Doesn't Upset
You-Don’t Losea Day's Work-Read Guarantee
I discovered a vegetable com
pound that does the work of dan
gerous, sickening calomel and I
want'fcvery reader of this paper to
buy a bottle for a few cents and
if it doesn’t straighten you up bet
ter and quicker than salivating
calomel just go back to the store
and get your money back.
I guarantee that one spoonful of
Dodson’s Liver Tone will put your
sluggish liver to work and clean
your thirty feet of bowels of the
sour bilo and constipation poison
whi^h is clogging your system and
making you feel miserable.
I guarantee that one spoonful
of this harmless liquid liver medi
cine will relieve the headache, bil
iousness, coated tongue, ague, ma>
hiria, sour stomach or any other
distress caused by ft torpid liver
as quickly as a dose of vile, nau
seating calomel, besides it will
not make you sick or keep you
from a day's work.
Calomel is poison—it’s mercury
—it attacks the bones often caus
ing rheumatism. Calomel is dan
gerous. It sickens—while
Dodson’s Liver Tone is safe, pleas
ant and harmless. Eat anything
afterwards, because It can not sal
ivate. ’Give it to the children be
cause it doesn’t upset the stomach
or ehock the liver. Take a spoon
ful tonight and wake up feeling
fact that an nctivo liver may go a
work.—(Advertsiemcnt.)

Berton Braky's
Daily Poem
OPTIMISM PREFERRED
By BERTON BRALEY v
There are tftnea In every specie*
of existence.
When the game of life seem?
scarcely worth tho while,
When your hopes and dreams al:
vanish In tho distance
And yuur luck la' unexceptional^
vile;
When your labors cannot get you
any gains out
Of Whatever Is tho business you
essay.
Still, if I wero you I wouldn’t blow
my brains out.
For tomorrow Is, you know’, no
other dayI
Though 5’ou cannot see much pros
pect of Improvement,
Though the sky with heavy cloud*
Is overcast, |
Though tho stocks that you havr
purchased show u movement
Which Is downward, and they'
dropping very fast;
Though when you would gather hay
It always rains out,
And it’s sunny w'hcn for rainy
days you pray;
Still, If I were you I wouldn’t blow
my brains out.
For tomorrow Is, you know, an'
other day!,
Though the only thing that’s wait
ing ’round the corner
Is misfortune with a visage that
is glum,
Though yeur wife takes all you*
earnings to adorn her,
And then beats it with youf
fondly trusted chum;
Though you long to cut your trou
bles and your pains out
By a method that’ll finish . al?
your sorrow’;
Still, today you hadn’t better blow
your brains out.
For you may prefer to hang your
self tomorrow!
