(Special to The Herald.) Washington, D. C., Octoberf ^3.— Painters often depend on secrets of pigments and technique of their own to obtain various effects. We are all familiar with the anecdote of Turner, who when asked by a chance observer how he mixed his colors to get his famous effects, replied tactly: “With brains, sir.” It may be said that Americans have always been cele brated for putting brains jnto their work. That is one reason rwhy they bave succeeded and why in some re spects they have l?d the world.. In many lines Americans have no rivals. American typewriters, sewing ma chines, counting devices, office furni ture, and many other things that might he named, will be found in the most remote centers where they often have no competition because they are unique. Those who visit the San Diego Exposition in 1915 will see an exposition of brains as well as of products. Their first glimpse of the exposition will show them a beautiful city which will be the expression of the best intellect of the nation in ar chitectural design, in structural work, in materials. The artistic effects ob tained by the landscape .treatment in which the floral display will be con spicuous, and by grouping, coloring and design of the buildings will testify to the esthetic development of what is sometimes referred to rather^ con- temptously as a ‘commerical nation.” Within the buildings will be working demonstrations of the industrial activ ities of the nation, again proving an exposition of brains as well as of ma terials. And the exposition in its en tirety will illustrate the intellectual powers of the designers and executors of the whole enterprise. ATHENS, GA„ TUESDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1913. WEATHER FORECAST. Washington, D. C., October 28.—Forecast for Georgia: Partly cloudy ionight and Wednesday; colder in the southeast portion tonight. BUSINESS GOOD AND GROWING Gathering optimism is expressed by business men about the fall outlook. After a wide canvass of merchants and manufac turers The Journal of Commerce, of New York, finds that they are experiencing an abundance of orders larger than for a long period. The enactment of the tariff bill, which is in sight, appears to be the marking point for a good advance in business activity.. Moderate conservatism is expressed, but the preponderating be lief seems to be that the tariff bill rates are not destructive, and methods have been developed to an efficiency that makes foreign rivalry not to be greatly feared. FOR LEISURE MOMENTS The Soliloquy of Taxable Bachelor. To wed or not to wed—that is the question; Whether ’tis wiser in the mind to sul- for The stings and harrows of outrageous taxers, Or to put arms about a maid ot promise. And, by espousing, bluff them? To woo, to wed— Nuf said; and , by a ring, to say we end The freedom, and the numerous natur al joys.

Americans have good reason to be proud of manner in which their commerce has been reaching out to the furtherest ends of the earth. It has made tremendous strides, and recently Secre- tary-of Commerce Redfield told the public.that our commerce is at Hood tide, and that every effort should be made to sustain it there. Secretary Redfield is a business man who proved that he knew how to get and keep business. He is a legislator of experience, and a man of wide culture and deep knowledge. He advises tbpt the public indicate to congress its desire that more money be al lowed for our corps of foreign representatives who are engaged m the extension of American commerce. He refers to the con sular service and to the special commercial representatives who are directly under the supervision and control of the department of commerce. Congress has been so accustomed to exercising a niggardly policy toward the consular service that it dislikes very much to spend even the paltry million or so required to maintain it in a state of shabby gentility. The service is now on a merit system and is considered a model by most nations, yet the salaries are low and allowances for expenses are meager, often to meanness. The commercial interests of the nation should express their desire that this service, which is yearly bringing hundreds of millions of dollars of trade to the United States, be treated at least as well as the rural carriers, the navy yard mechanics, the Indian agents and even pensioners, who received last year about 175 times as much as the foreign consuls of the United States. While the consular service is the most efficient agent in pro moting trade abroad, expositions are one of the most efficient agencitV at home for the same purpose. Congress has been lib eral with expositions in the past and still looks with favor on them, although it is more careful about making large grants of money. Such an exposition as the one which is to be held in San Diego in 1915 to celebrate the opening of the Panama canal, and which is already in such shape as to give visitors a very fair idea of what it will be when ready to receive visitors, does very much to extend knowledge of the resources of this country and to af ford strangers opportunity to learn what the nation has to give them. It is being liberally supported by manufacturing, com mercial and railroad interests. ' A bride sideratiors.” In whit way T ‘She considers the bridegroom bet ter than tlhe best man.”—Baltimore.

It is a comfort to know that those touch* talked-of pains that are said to precede child - bearing may, easily be avoided.

Smith was going down town morning when he ran across a friend and the conversation eventualy drift ed to a new family that had moved into fire house adjoining thbM&rmer. “I am sorry they came there,” said Smith, referring to the new neigh bors. “They are Simply driving my poor wife crazy.” “That’s hard luck” commented the friend, sympathetically. “What do they do, have a domestic scrap every night?” “Yes,” replied Smith, “but that isn’t exactly what’s driving mother bug- house.
