Some one denominates a love

A lawyer charges for his opin

who seem glad to offer theirs grat

The Augusta Chronicle thinks

According to the Atlanta News,
Pension Commissioner J. W.. Lind
say will, in his next annual report
to the governor, recommend the
passage of a hill by the legislature
providing for an amendment to
the pension laws of the state,
creating inspectors and examiners
for the state, the duties of which
shall be to examine and pass upon
each applicant for a pension so
that none but the worthy shall re
ceive benefits from the state.
Labor day was celebrated Mon
day in the cities throughout
the union in more elaborate
manner than ever known l>e
fore, the parades being the largest
and the general interest taken
never being equaled. This shows
that industry is being dignified

man of toil is recognized as the
factor he really is in bearing the
country’s burdens and adding
greatness to the nation’s career.
If the legislatures of the United
States were to give more attention

"Taught by costly experience”
writes Prof. Waterhouse, “Euro
pean and even Asiatic nations have
learned to protect their woods.”
This year’s drought has given the
people a costly lesson. Crops can
not be raised without moisture.
The reckless slashing off of forests,
as Prof. Waterhouse says, di
minishes the rainfall, causes
droughts and floods, obstructs
navigation, sterilizes lands once
fertile, and lessens the water sup
ply for storage,
How To
Gain Flesh
Persons have been known to
gain a pound a day by taking
an ounce of SCOTT’S EMUL
SION. It is strange, but it often
happens.
Somehow the ounce produces
the pound; it seems to start the
digestive machinery going prop
erty, so that the patient is able
to digest and absorb his ordinary
food, which he could not do be
fore, and that is the way the gain
is made.
A certain amount of flesh is
necessary for health; if you have
not got it you can get it by
taking
ftcott’s fmnisloß
You will find it just as useful in summer
as in winter, and if you are thriving upon
it don’t stop because the wetter is wane.

IN THE FAIX PUSH
Against rains and droughts and
disasters of one kind and another
that affect the crops and thus re
tard trade man is impotent to guard
and is even unable to prophecy.
So that a reasonable reckoning as
to results is not always possible,
and never so before these dangers
are well passed. Now that the
farmers are hunting up their cotton
pickers, Nature and Providence
are supposed to nave played their
hands, and the size of the harvest
can be pretty well calculated upon.
Up to the recent rains no prettier
prospect for a full crop of both
corn and cotton has been known in
this section in years. That the
rains have done some damage there
is no denying. Corn has been
flooded in some places and in
others the continued downpour
has caused a continued dampness
that has affected the maturing ear
of corn, so that souring has been
observed in some instances and
sprouting in others, and cotton, be
sides shedding squares, has been
affected bv bolls rotting. How
ever, with these drawbacks, the
crops are going to be a good yield.
What the prices are to oe are yet
to be ascertained but it is believed
cotton and corn will both com
mand good prices. The drought in
the west has cut both cotton and
corn short in that section, and this,
coupled with the fact that factories
and export demand worked up
and off the old supply, makes it
pretty certain that good prices
will prevail for cotton; and
corn, owing to the limited product,
will bring good figures.
The peach crop has been fairly
good this year and farmers in our
section who have been growing
peaches have had good luck in dis
posing of their crops, so that
money has been received and some
of it put into circulation.
Summing up the situation, it
looks like we are in the midst of a
gratifying condition and there is
little to make either the farmer,
the tradesman or commercial man
feel blue.
The least bulge of prosperity
has often its attendant evil—if of
no other or mightier dimensions,
that of extravagance, and that is
something all ought to guard
against—and we mean no special,
but all clases. A little handful of
cash often inclines one to needless
expenditures and injudicious in
vestments. In emergencies like
this reflection is a good check rein
and discretion should be a strongly
employed quantity. Often foolish
expenditures are regretted and the
mind comprehends when it is too
late some different and more bene
ficial use to which such money
might have been applied.
Debts should be liquidated to the
greatest possible extent, as they
are the nightmare of one’s exist
ence and the bane of all efforts at
thrift. After these, surplus hold-
ings should be employed in the
providing of necessities and the ac
complishing of most permanent
good. Money turned from profit
less channels could be used in le
gitimate enterprise, and if in suf
ficient lumps might be invested in
little ventures where returns would
be pleasing and the community
pushed forward. From many a
small investment a giant enterprise
has grown. American genius that
can make should be able to turn to
account for further growth the
nimble penny.
To be either benefactor or bene
ficiary ought to be a crowning
realization to any one —in whatever
line such an accomplishment is
wrought.
The political news grinders of
Atlanta, who grind out stuff at so
much a grind daily for the papers
away from the capital, pretend as
if they know a heap, but the peo
ple themselves are in possession of
about all that is necessary to know
at this early stage of the game.
There is a great deal of needless
guessing and speculation indulged
in to try and warm up things but
the masses are yet serene. At the
proper time they are going to con
sider the governorship and the
other state offices, and merit is go
ing to cut some figure in the pop
ular eye.
What a blessing that we live in
an age when such *mals as the
hoplophoneous are not at large.
A danger, aside from its possible
hostile habits,would be confronted

We hare books telling about

THE MODEL SCHOOL.
Bartow county should make ear
nest effort to secure the first one of
the model schools to be established
by the Georgia Federation of Wo
men’s clubs. Be warned that the
time is short and get down to bus
iness in a way to win. We have
favorable locations and our Chero
kee club and school superintend
ent and county board are at work.
They must have the lively and sub
stantial aid of the citizens at points
suitable for the school, if the prize
isobtained. It is worthy our best
efforts, and we should heartily en
courage the good women of the
state and county in the building of
t'lis school.

“I had a severe attack of bilious
colic, got a bottle of Chamber
lain's Coiic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Remedy, took two doses
and was entirely cured,” says Rev.
A. A. Power, of Emporia, Kansas.
“My neighbor across the street
was sick for over a week, had two
or three bottles of medicine from
the doctor. He used them for
three or four days without relief,
then called in another doctor who
treated him for some days and
gave him no relief, so discharged
him. I went over to see him next
morning. He said his bowels
were in a terrible fix, that they
had been running off so long that
it was almost bloody flux. I asked
him if he had tried Chamberlain s
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea rem
edy and he said, ‘No.’ I went
home and brought him my bottle
and gave him one dose; told him
to take another dose in fifteen or
twenty min ites if he did not find
relief, but he took no more and
was entirely cured. 1 think it th
best medicine I have ever tried
