Athens owns at Lithonia, one of the
finest stone quarries in the South.
Enough Belgian block or Rubble stone
could le taken from it to pave every

value to an appreciable degree. Noth

enough to pay for cutting the stone
and placing it on onr streets” It will

SUPPORT YOUR PAPER-
The Manufacturers’ Record, the
leadiug industrial publication in this
country, says:—“We have often seen
instances where local papers are not
properly supported, and some business
men seem to he incapable of appre
ciating the fact that every good local
paper does its town ten times as much
good as it is ever paid for. Men hav
ing large interests in a town and
deeply concerned as to its progress
often try to see how little they can do
for their own local papers. The
papers of the South are today doing
far. more for the good of tlieir country
than they receive credit for. Day
after day and week after week they
are telling of its advantages of soil,
limate and mineral and of its pro
gress. The facts which they give are
widely published in other papers, ami
thus the good work is carried far be
yond their immediate circle of readers.
The Manufacturers’ Record has often
ted with admiration the great work
that Southern papers are doing, and
regretted to see how poorly in many
es they are supported by the peo
ple whose interests they are serving.”

IMPROVEMENT OF THE NECRO.
The indolence of the average negro
is attracting attention. That the
negro, as a rule, cares for nothing
heyoml Ids provisions and a scant
•dotliiug is admitted.
The only hope of elevating the race
is in stimulating its pride and en
couraging local attachments.
The whites can he instrumental in
this improvement of the brother in
black in some measure, but the chief
work will devolve on the leaders
among the blacks. First and fore
most they should begin by establish
ing grades of society among their
race. As long as a thief or a vaga
bond loafer is held in as good repute
by negroes as a thrifty, hard working
man, just so long will the race he
deprived of one of the strongest in
centives to industry and cleanliness.
The desire to command the respect
and esteem of our fellow mau is a
strong stimulant to manly achieve
ment. Habits of economy should
also lie encouraged, and so soon us one

in a home which lie should he en-
courtged to improve and keep tidy.
Jacksonville is reported to have

The report comes from abroad that
Mr. Andrew Carnegie is keeping house
at Cluny Castle in “old-time laird

strong protectionist. He has good
reason to he. He ls-1 ii ,-es in the

man who can take §1,50(1,000 out of
his business in one year, and then go
abroad to live in a castle in “ old-time

lieve in high protection. He should
lie trusted to “ vote for Cana ” every

The Brooklyn republican managers
hired advertising space on the street
cars and filled it in with partisan
mottoes. The democrats not only
threaten to boy-cott the lines of the
city railroad, but also to agitate for
the passage of a law prohibiting ad
vertisements of any kind whatever on
the street cars, which, ns common
carriers, they hold to he improper
vehicles for partisan political pur
poses.

It is announced that Hon. Jno. G.
Carlisle will open the Chattahoochee
Valley Exposition at Columbus on
October 4th. We hope this is true
for it will give the people of Georgia
a chance to hear this famous Kentucki
an. In view of the fact that this
gentleman was also hilled for the
Chautauqua and failed to put in an
npiiearance, and that about this time
the country will he involved in the
heat of a great political campaign
we are inclined to take this
nouncement with a grain of salt.
Congressman G. D. Tillman, has
licon renominated from the second
Congressional district of Sonth Caro
lina, by the democratic convention
after nearly a month’s session. Tlie
opposition to him was on account of
his alleged hostility to the administra
tion and the financial and tariff poli
cy of the party. .
Up to the end of last week there
had been scut out from the head
quarters of tho Democr tic National
Committee in New York 4,688,721

campaign when more attention has
been paid to the enlightenment of
voters and less to a]>|ieals calculated
to arouse tlieir prejudices or inflame
their passions than this one. The
nearer Democrats come to bringing
home the troth to ever Voter, the more
assured the victory of Grover Cleve

ingers and toes were four and twenty,

Malformation photographed, and for
irhat reason? Did not this passage slip
in by mistake into the sacred Scriptures,
is sometimes n paragraph utterly obnox
ious to tho editor gets into his newspaper
luring his absence? Is not tills script
ural errata? No, no; there is nothing
haphazard about the Bible. This passage
yf Scripture was as certainly intended to
be put in the Bible as the passage “In
die beginning God created the heavens
md the earth,” or “God so loved tho
vorld that he gave his only begotten
Jon.”
And I select it for ipy text today be
muse it is charged with practical and
Temendous meaning. By the people of
3od the Philistines liad been conquered,
vith the exception of a few giants. The
■ace of giants is mostly extinct, I am
;lad to say. There is no use for giants
low except to enlarge tho income of mu-
eiuns. But there were many of thtm
n olden times Goliath was, according
o tho Bible, eleven feet, four and a half
nclies high. Or, if you do not believe
he Bible, the famous Piiny, a secular
vritcr, declares that at Crete, by an
larthquake a monument was broken
ipen, discovering tho remains of a giant
brty-six cubits long, or sixty-nine feet
ligh. So, whether you prefer sacred or
rrofano history, you must come to
iho conclusion that there wero in thoso
jlden times cases of human altitudo mon
strous and appalling. David had smashed
:ho skuil of one of these giants, but there
were other giants that the Davidcan wars
had not yet subdued, and ono of them
stands in my text He was not only of
Alpine stature, but had a surplus of
ligits. To tho ordinary fingers was an
nexed an additional finger and tbe foot
had also a sujierfluous addendum. lie
had twenty-four terminations to hands
and feet wjiero others have twenty. It
was not the only instance of the kind.
Tavernier, the learned writer, says that
the emperor of Java had a son endowed
with tlio same number of extremities.
Volcatius, tho poet, had six lingers on
each hand. Maupetius in his celebrated
letters speaks of two families near
Berlin similarly equipped of hand
and foot. AU of which I can
believe, for I have seen two cases of the
same physical superabundance. But
tliis giant of tho text is in battle, and as
David, the dwarf warrior, hail dispatched
one giant, tho brother of David slays
this monster of my text, and there lie
lies after the battle in Gath, a dead giant.
His stature did not save him, and iiis
superfluous appendices of hand and foot
did not save him. Tlio probability was
tliat in tho battle his sixth finger on his
I land made him clumsy in the uso of
his weapon, and las sixth toe crippled
Iiis gait. Behold the prostrate and mal-
formated giant of tho text: “A man
great of stature, whose fingers and toes
were four and twenty, six on each hand,
and six on each foot: and he also was
tho son of the giant. But when he de
fied Israel, Jonathan, the eon of Sliimea,
David’s brother, slew lfim.”
Behold liow superfluities are a blnder-
tsrougn your industry ana pumlc pros
perities you can own the hair<3 in which
you five. But suppose you own fifty
bouses and you leave all thoso rents to
collect and all those tenants to please.
Suppose you have branched out in busi
ness successes until in almost every di
rection you have investments. The fire
bell rings at night; you rush up stairs to
look out of the window to Beo if it is any

financial world, and you are likoahen

ing with anxious cluck to get your
overgrown chickens safely under wing.
After a certain stage of success has been
reached you have to trust so many im
portant things to others that you are apt
to become the prey of others, and you
are swindled and defrauded, and tho
anxiety you had on your brow when you
were earning your first thousand dollars
is not equal to tlio anxiety on your brow
now that you have won your three hun
dred thousand. .Tho trouble with such a
ono is lie is spread out like tho unfortu
nate ono in my text. You have more
fingers ar.d toes than you know what
to do with. Twenty wero useful,
twenty-four is • a hindering super
fluity. Disraeli says that a king
of Poland abdicated his throne
and joined the people and became a por
ter to carry burdens. And some ono
asked him why ho did so and ho replied:
“Upon my honor, gentlemen, tho load
winch I quit is by far heavier than tho
one you seo me carry. The weightiest is
bat a straw when compared to that world
under which I labored. I havo slept
more in four nights than I havo during
all my reign. I begin to live and to bo a
king myself. Elect whom you choose,
for me who am so well it would bo mad
ness to return to court.”
tVell,” says somebody, “such over-
leaded persons ought to bo pitied, for
their worrimeats are real and their in
somnia and their nervous prostration
are genuine.” I reply that they could
get rid of the bothersomo surplus by giv
ing it away. If a man lias more houses
than he can carry without vexation, let
him drop a few of them. If his estate is
so great lie cannot manago it without
getting nervous dyspepsia from having
too much, let him divido up with those
who havo nervous dyspepsia because
they canot get enough. No! They
guard tlieir sixth finger with more
care than they did the original five.
They go limping with what they call
gout and know not that, like
tile giant cf my text, they
are lamed by a auperiltsius too. A few
of them bv large charities bleed them
selves of tliis fir-ancial obesity and m,on<-
tary plethora, but many t'of them hang
on to the hindering tuperduitv till death,
and then as they are compelled to giyo
the money up anyhow, In their last will
and te3tainent they generously give some
of it to the Lord, expecting no doubt
tliat Ho will feel very much obliged to
them. Thank God that once in a while
we have a Peter Cooper who, owning an
interest in ihe iron works at Trenton,
said to Mr. Lester: “I do not feel quito
easy about the amount wo are making.
Yvorking under one of our patents, wo

to come to us for it and wo are making
money too fast.” So they reduced the
price, and this whilo our philanthropist
was building Cooper institute, which
mothers a hundred institutes of kind

the world had to wait five thousand

so tlio question of some cheap substi
tute is of as much interest there as
elsewhere.
Experiments have recently been
made ill Philadelphia with a fuel gas
which costs only from 5 to 10 cents a
thousand feet. In l’ittshurg an oil
is is used and is proving satisfactory.
It is claimed that tlie cost is only
rl>out onc-tiftli as great as coal at §1.-
!o a ton, and very much legs even than
what natural gas costs Pittsburg
users. Another fuel to which atten
tion is also being called for forging
and welding is crude petroleum, as
used in a process owned by the
Aerated Fuel Co., of Springfield,
Mass., and very strong claims are
made as to its cheapness.”
Heretofore the sections, where
natural gas was used as a fuel, had
some advantage over the South, so
that our niaiiuf .cturers will hail with
delight the introduction of a cheap
fuel
The South has little to fear from
competition in any line of manufac
turers, hut the more advantages gain
ed the better for our mills.
“In all industries dependent upon
coal as a fuel the South is of course
far ahead in cheapness, for the vast
coal wealth of the South affords an
unlimited supply of the very best
grades of coal at the lowest cost.”
Every indication points to a wonder
ful and unprecedented increase in
Southern manufacturing industries.
With exhanst.ess fields of coal, iron
and other minerals with the raw cot
ton at our very doors, there "is no
reason why the south should not be-
como the leading manufacturing
section of tlie world.

what was meant for the American Biblo

you are prostrated with anxie
ties about keeping or investing

you how you can do more to get your

Perhaps some of you will take this ad

and when over your remains tlio minis,

will hardly be ablo to keep tlieir faces

r.iv words do good or not, l am anxious
that all who havo only ordinary equip

and rightly employ it. I think you

ing in the presence of this fallen giant of
my text und in this post-mortem exami
nation of him. let U3 learn liow much
better off we aro wuli just tho usual
band, tho usua 1 foot. Y'ou liavo thanked
God for a thousand things, but I warrant
you never thanked him for those two
implements of work and locomotion, that
no nr.o but tlio infinite and omnipotent
God could have ever planned or made,
tho hand and tlio foot. Only tliat sol
dier or that mechanic who, in a battio or
through machinery, lias lost them, knows
anything nlxiut their value, and only the
Christian scientist can liavo any apprecia
tion of wliatdivine masterpieces they are.
Sir Charles Bell, tlie English surgeon, on
tbe battle field of Waterloo, while en
gaged in amputations of the wounded
was so impressed with the wondrous con
struction of tho human hand that when
the Earl of Bridgewater gave §40,000 for
essays on the wisdom and goodness of
God, and eight books were written, feir
Charles Bell wrote his entire book on the
wisdom and goodness of God as displayed
in the human hand. Tito twenty-seven
banes in hand and wrist with cartilages
and ligaments and phalanges of the
fingers oil made just ready to knit,
to sew, to build up, to pull down,
to weave, to write, to plow, to
pound, to wheel, to battle, to
give friendly salutation. Tlie tips of its
fingers are so many telegraph offices by
reason of their sensitiveness of touch.
The bridges, tholunnels, the cities of the
whole earth are tho victories of the hand.
Tho hands aro not dumb, but often speak
as distinctly as the Ups. With onr hands
we invite, we repel, wo invoke, we en
treat, we wring them in grief or clap
them in joy, or spread them abroad in
benediction. Tho malformation of tho
giant’s hand in tbe text glorifies tho usual
hand. Fashioned of God more exquis
itely and wondrously than any human
mechanism that was aver contrived, I
charge you nse It for God and the lifting of
the world out of its moral predicament.
Employ it in the sublimo work of Gospel
handshaking. You can see the hand is
just made far that. Four fingers just
set right to touch your neighbor's hand
on one side and your thumb set so as to
clench it on tho other side. By aU its
banes, and joints, and muscles, and carti
lages, and ligaments, tho voice of nature
joins with tho voice of God commanding
you to shake hands. The custogtis os
old as tho Biblo, anyhow. Jehu said to
Jehonadah: “Is thine heart right as my
heart is with thine heart? If it be, give
methino hand." When hands join in
Christian salutation a Gosjk.1. electricity
thrills across tlio palm from heart to
heart, and from the shoulder of
ana to the shoulder.of tho other. fthnVo
Arch at Benoventum, or Constantino
arch at Rome, or arch of Triumph
at tho end of Champs Elysees could not
equal. Those arches stand where they
were planted, but this arch of tho foot is
an adjustable arch, a yielding arch, a
flying arch, and ready for movements in
numerable. The human foot so fash
ioned as to enable man to stand upright
as no other creature, and leave the hand
that would otherwise have to help in
balancing the body free for anything it
chooses. Tlio foot of tho camel fashioned
for the sand, the foot of the bird fash
ioned for tlio tree branch, the foot of the
hind fashioned for the slippery rock, tlie
foot of the lion fashioned to rend its
prey, the foot of tlie horse fashioned for
the solid earth, but tlie foot of man
made to cross the desert, or climb tho
tree, or scale the cliff, or walk the earth,
or go anywhere he nee Is to go. With
that divine triumph of anatomy in your
possession, where do you walk? In what
path of righteousness or what path of sin
liavo you set it down? Where havo you
left tho mark of your toon-tops? Amid
the petrifactions in tlie rocks iiave been
found the mai lt of tho feet of birds and
beasts of thousands of years ago. And
God can trace out all the footsteps of
your lifetime, and those you made fifty
years n?ro are as plain as those made
in tiie last soft weather, all of them

the fool! How divinely honored
not only in its construction but in
tbe fact that God represents himself
in the Bible as having feet: “Tlio clouds
on tlie dust of Iiis feet:” “Darkness was
under his feet;” “The earth is my foot
stool.” And representing cyclones and
euroclydo:i3 and whirlwinds and hurri
canes as winged creatim-s, he describes
himself as putting his foot on these mon
sters of tlio air and walking from pinion
to pinion, saying: “Ho walketh upon
the wings of the wind.” “Thou hast
put:.!! fling t under hit feet,” cries tho
palmist. Oh, ihofootl Give mo the auto
biography of your foot from tlio time
you stepped out of the cradle until to
day and I will tell your exact character
now and what are your prospects for the
world to coma. Tliat there might be no
doubt about tho fact that both these
pieces of divino mechanism, hand and
foot, belong to Christ’s service, both
hands of Christ and both feet of Christ
were spiked on the cross. Right through
the arch of both his feet to the hollow of
Iiis footstep went the iron of torture, and
from tlio palm of his liand to tlie back
of it, and there is not n muscle or nerve
or bone among the twenty-seven bones
of hand and wrist, or among tbe
twenty-six bones of the foot, but it be

iteade, tlie great writer, lost the joint of
his fi' eflnger by feeding a bear. Look
out i. til your whole hand gets not into
tho maw of theold Cerberus of perdition.
Sir Thomas Trowbridge, at tlie battle of
Inkermami. lost his foot, and when the
soldiers wo.ild carry him away, ho said:
“No, I do not move until tho battio is
won," So if our foot be lamed or lost
let it be in too service of our God, our
homo or our country.
That is tho most beautiful foot that
goes about pottis of greatest usefulness,
and tliat tho most beautiful hand that
does tho most to help others. I was
reading of three women who were in
rivalry about tho appearance of tlio band.
And tlio ono reddened her hand with
berries, and said the beautiful tinge made
hers tlio most beautiful. And another
put her hand in the mountain brook,
and said as tho waters dripped off, that
her hand was tho most beautiful. And
another plucked flowers off the bank,
and under the bloom contended that her
band was the most attractive. Then a
poor old woman appeared, and looking
up in her decrepitude asked for alms.
And a woman who liad not token part in
the rivalry gave her alms. And all
the women resolvod to leave to this beg

hands present was the most attractive,
and elio said: “Tho most beautiful of

Mra. Mary E. Tyler, the original Mary
whoso little lamb had followed her to
school one day, is still living at Somer
ville, Mass., a vigorous old lady of 89
years. To a reporter of The Boston
Globe she recently gave the true version
of the world famous verses. The lamb
was raised by her from the day of its
birth, its mother having deserted it. It
followed Mary everywhere she went, and
died in her arms, having been gored by
a cow while following Mary about the
barn. The three original verses were
written by one John Roulstone, a yonng
man of the neighborhood, then fitting
for college, but two more verses were
added afterward by a Mrs. Townsend.
From tbe fleece of her lamb Mary knit
two pairs of stockings. These were
raveled out, and sold in small bits tied to
a card with Mary’s autograph written
on it, and sold for the fund collected to
save tho Old South church, Boston.
Two hundred dollars were raised in this
