“BEFORE BABY IS BORN.*’
A Valuable Little Book of Interest
to All Women Sent Free.
Every woman looks forward with feel
ings of joy indescribable to the
one great event in her life, com
pared with which all others pale into in
significance. How proud she will feel
when her babe nestles on her breast-
how sweet the name of “Mother!” And
yet, her anticipation of this event is
clouded with dread of the pain and dan
ger of the ordeal, so that it is impossi
ble to avoid the feeling of foreboding
which creeps over her. The danger
and suffering attendant upon being a
mother can De entirely prevented, so
that the coming of the little stranger
need not be looked forward to with fear.
Every woman who reads this, can obtain
free a valuable little book entitled “Be
fore Baby to Born,” by sending her ad
dress to the Bradfiela Regulator Co.,
Atlanta, Ga. This book contains price
less information for all women, and no
one should fail to send for it.

Allie Partee indulged herself rather

The anniversary of the birthday of
General Robert E. Lee was appropri
ately observed in Athens yesterday.
Tlie old veterans met at ten o’clock at
the city hall. The meeting was pre
sided over by Capt. D. C Oliver, com
mander of Cobb-Deloney Camp, United
Confederate Veterans.
After tbe meeting, which was quite
brief, the veterans in response to an
iuvitation from Chancellor Boggs,
marched to the University chapel to
hear the addresses of the young men
takiug part in the Clyde Shropshire
medal contest.
Despite the inclement weather quite a
large number of citizens had assembled
at the chapel, and the exercises were
highly enjoyed. Messrs. K. D. Sanders,
L. A. Cothran, E. H. Hamby, C. W.
Hill, H. McWhorter, W. A. Thompson,
Fair Hood, P. H. Doyal, R Falligant
and R. B. McWhorter acted as mar
shals.
The first speech was made by Mr.
Milton M. Hirach, of Atlanta, his sub"
ject being "The South ; Past Memories
and Triumphs of Today.” Mr. Hirsch’s
speech was full of thought and elo
quence.
Mr. J. B. Gordon' Jones, of Carroll
ton, was the speaker. His subject was
"Heroes of the Lost Cause,” and it was
a lofty tribute to the Confederate dead
and living heroes.
Mr. John L. Tison, of Allendale,
South Carolina, delivered a magnificent
address upon the subject, “Heroes of
the South.”
Tbe next speaker was Mr. Robert J.
Travis, of Covington, Ga., who spoke
eloquently and patriotically of "The
Southern Cavalier; A Type.”
Mr. Charles Emory Weddington, of
Atlanta, had as his subject “The South
ern Cavalier,” and by his eloquence
elicited much applause from the and!
ence.
The last speaker was Mr. William Lee
Wooten, of Atlanta, who delivered an
excellent address on “Our Duty to the
Lost Cause.”
The judges awarded the medal to
Mr. Weddington who was heartily con
gratulated on his triumph.

WANT CONSIDERATION.
North Carolina Blacks Petition the Legislature
and Issue an Address.
Raleigh, N. O., Jan. 18.—A conncil of
tbe negroes of North Carolina was held
here today. It was called by Congress
man Geo. H. White and twenty other
leading negroes of the state. As was
promised in the call, the meeting 1 ‘was
void of all political questions- and dis
cussions” and was devoted to considera
tion of the general condition and future
advancement of the race.
A memorial to the general, assembly
was drafted and an address to the col
ored people of the state was issued. In
the first, they asked the legislature to
continue its appropriations to their
schools and charitable institutions, and
not to pass any laws, the effect of
which would be to blunt our aspira
tions, reduce our manhood and lessen
our usefulness as citizens, bnt guarantee
to ns an equal chance with other men to
work out our destiny.”
In the address the colored people of
the state are counselled “not to be hasty
in making any changes in their present
surroundings and plans, bnt quietly,
industriously fulfill all existing con
tracts, and where necessary enter into
new ones for the current year.”
A committee of fifteen, one from each
congressional district and six from the
state at large, was appointed to continue
the work commenced by this conncil
toward bettering the condition of the
colored people of North Carolina.
There is now being tried on the Uni
versity campus an experiment that bids
fair to bring a University education
much nearer the reach of the poorer
boys of the state.
About twenty-five young men have
for the past few months been trying the
co-operative plan of living, and they
have succeeded in reducing their ex
penses to less than eight dollars per
month.
On the University campus stands a
two-story brick building which the
faculty has turned over to these students.
They have fitted up a neat sitting room
and a large and comfortable dining room,
the faculty contributing the necessary
furnishings and kitchen utensils.
A matron has been employed for $26.
per month to look after the home, and a
competent cook has also been employed.
Mrs. Mary Lane is the matron. She is
an accomplished lady, having had ranch
expensive as a matron at the Girls Nor
mal and indnstrial College at Milledge-
ville, Ga.
The boys have good fare, good meat
three times a day and all the necessary
articles of food cooked in the best possi
ble manner. They have good table ser
vice, clean linen all the time, clean nap
kins at each meal, and in fact every
thing is conducted in the very best
style.
The expenses per month now are $7.50
for each student. This is for thirty-
days and not for fonr weeks as at tlie
State Normal School. When the cold
season is over and no fuel has to,be
noogne, tne expenses will be reduced to
about $6.50 per month. The boys sleep
at the dormitory where rooms are fur
nished free of charge. * So that their ex
penses all told need not ran over $10
per month, including laundry and
everything. Thus it is possible now for
a yonng man to attend the University of
Georgia a full term of nine months for
less than one hundred dollars.
At the session of the Board of Trus
tees next June, that body will be asked
to provide more room so that a large
number of young men may be accommo
dated in this manner, and also to pay
the matron’s salary. It is believed that
this plan will put a University educa
tion within the reach of every aspiring
young man in the state and that it will
bring at least one hundred new students
to the University next year. The trus
tees will no donbt lend the movement
their heartiest co-operation.

BAKING POWDER
DeWitt’s Little Early Risers,
Tha famous lltt*" nil 1 *
The proposed issue of paving bonds is
being widely discussed throughout the
city.
There is very little opposition to the
issuing of bonds bnt nevertheless a few
points are brought up that need answer
ing in order that the people may be in
possession of the facts before voting.
Some object to the paving issue, be
cause it makes property owners pay a
share of the expense of paving in front
of their property. It is urged that the
entire cost of paving should be met by
the advalorem taxes.
In answer to this it may be said, that
after trying all kinds of methods, the
consensus of opinion in ail the munici
palities of this country lias crystalized
around this plan of distributing the cost
of paving.
The city of Athens pay9 out of general
taxes tliree-fourths of the paving cost on
streets outside tlie fire limits and one-
half the cost on streets inside the fire
limits. In that way the people of the
entire city bear their share of the bur
den. Then the property owners pay
their share for the benefit it does their
property.
They may say it will not benefit their
property. We claim that it will en-
amounTmvesTCtrfn iflgqnertv Jit the
by that amount but by even larger fig
ures. They may say it will not increase
the rents of the property to have paved
streets in front of it.
We say there is not one tenant in fifty
who will not be glad to pay more rent
under the circumstances.
Take tbe old postofflee block on Clay
ton street for example. The stores there
average twenty-five feet, hardly that
much in fact. The pavement (vitrified
brick) in front of twenty-five feet front
age will cost $85 approximately. Eight
per cent interest on $85 is $6.80 per an
num. Divided into twelve parts it
would give 56 2-3 cents per month.
Add that amount to the tenant’s rent
each month and the landlord gets inter
est on the money he invests in pave
ments. There is'not a tenant who would
not gladly pay this much extra rent to
get'a payed street in front of his store.
Bnt nearly all the buildings being two
stories high, this increase of 56 2-3 cents
per month would be divided among a
number of tenants and none would
feel it. On the block between Lump
kin street and College avenue the cost
will be even less.
On Broad street the cost for paving
(vitrified brick) in front of ealfch tweuty
five feet frontage will be about $85, the
same as the first block mentioned on
Clayton street.
On Thomas street and Jackson street
the cost of paving (Belgian block) in
front of each twenty-five feet frontage
will be abent $30. The extra rent in or
der to pay 6 per cent on the investment
wonld be but 20 cents per month.
On Hancock avenue the cost of pave
ment in front of a fifty foot frontage
will be abont $40 and for the same front
age on Washington street about $60.
Thus it is easily shown that not only
will it increase the value of the proper
ty, but the rents may he increased
enough to pay interest on the invest
ment.
Not only this, but in all probability
the city will arrange it so that the prop
erty owners will be given five years in
which to pay the sums assessed against
their property. This will still further
reduce the burden. ,
Then, too, it will not be necessary to
raise the ad valorem tax rate at all. So
it can be easily seen that the question of
increased taxes cuts no figure in the pro
posed issue of bonds.
•‘The Star Spangled Banner” Is the Lullaby ot
Our Babic*.
A very bright little army woman rose
to the occasion well a few days ago, says
a Washington dispatch to the New York
Press, when she was one of the guests
at a smart luncheon given at one of the
large hotels for some distinguished New
England people. It was a large affair,
and in an impromptu manner a number
of toasts were given. In the midst of it
the little army woman with horror heard
some one say:
“We have among us the wife of an
officer in the regular army, and I think
it is only fitting that she should respond
to the toast ‘The Flag.’ ” The men ap
plauded and the women smiled encour
agement, and, trembling a little as she
held up the glass of wine, the officer’s
wife spoke:
"I belong to a class of women to whom
the flag is especially near and dear. All
day it waves over the roofs of our little
homes in the far frontier, and at sun
down the rustle of its folds, mingled
with the notes of ‘The Star Spangled
Banner,’ is the lnllaby of onr babies.
We know that it will be the winding
sheet of those dearest to ns. Since the
word Santiago has been written in onr
hearts I see yet more in this flag—in its
red, the blood of our martyrs; in the
white, the paleness of theiifasben faces;
in the bine, the lips set with, the word
Freedom,’ and in the stars the souls
that will shine on forever.”
If Gloomy and Nervous, and looking
on the dark side of things, take a few
doses of Dr. M. A. Simmons Liver Med
icine, and the gloom will disappear.
The smallest things may exert the
greatest influence. DeWitt’s Little
