Mr. T. A. Musselwhite f.om
down in the 11th district gave our
office a very pleasant call yesterday
and‘not only remembered the Prog
ress individually but for a friend
also, saying that he did not see how
anybody could get along without
it and as for himslf he did not ex
pect to try as long as he lived and
had the money to pay for it.
“Uncle Tom”, as he is known to
his friends, says that not a man in
his neighborhood has made any
store account this year and they do
not intend to.
Speaking of crops, he said the
prospect was better now than lie
had ever seen before-and he has
lived at his present home 57
years.

See How It Pays?
We have many times told the
people of Dooly about what a tine
advertising medium the Progress
is. Now. some people have seem
ingly never realized how literally
true this was. We do not like to
parade our medium before the
public, but we do point with pride
to the record made last week.
Our last issue contained the fol
lowing
“The appointment of a democrat
ic postmaster at Cordele hangs
fire. Gentleman, please hurry up
this matter for Dooly needs a dem
ocratic postmaster at Cordele bad-
L-
The next day after this was sent
out Mr. J. M. Davis, a sterling
democrat, was appointed to take
the place ef Mr. M. G. Hull, re
moved.
This not only illustrates the great
ness of the Progress as an adver
tising medium but of the way it
“stands in” with the administra
tion.

The prisoner once wined and

apparel is supplanted by the regular
striped uniform of the Georgia
convict, filling a felon’s place at

is forgery, coupled with man’s

A ivittcu in a Flywheel.
A half grown kitten became lodged
the flywheel of an engine in
ortland, Or. The wheel moved so
.pidly that puss could not escape,
indeed it is probable that the poor
ireaturo was soon unconscious from
zziness.
A little computation shows the dis
tance the kitten traveled. Tlio fly
wheel makes 250 revolutions per
minute, and at every turn pussy
went 17 feet. The engine was in
motion 390 minutes and during that
time the kitten traveled very nearly
315 miles.
She was taken out nearly dead, but
soon recovered and was as lively as
ever. It was observed afterward
that she gave the flywheel a wide
berth.—Exchange.
A Contract in Egypt
A music master received a conces-
sion of all the sewage of Cairo. He
sold this concession to a company
and retired to Italy with a moderate
fortune. The company built their
poudrette works to the south of the
city, and then under the terms of the
concession demanded that the whole
of the sewage be delivered by cart at
the works as there were no sewers in
the place. There were threats of an
appeal to tno international courts,
but the affair ended, as usual, in a
compromise in which the govern
ment suffered.—Engineering Maga

Powdered the Face of the Dead.
An incident which happened at a
funeral in this city a short time ago
occasioned considerable surprise. It
was the action of a near relative of
the deceased in powdering the face
of the corpse with exquisite care.
The enhanced ghastliness of the dead
face is said to have been something
remarkable, but it was the more re
markable display of vanity upon the
part of the relative that is giving oc
casion for the talk.—Cincinnati En
