S L>uis. Aug i.— The display
made by Georgia at ihe world's
Inr furnishes many pleasant sur
prises tor the Georgii visitor, and,
in vew of the small legislative ap
ptopnatton, and because of the va
ried interests it touches, is a center
ol attraction for all visitors.
G -orgia’s exhibi s are even more
of a credit to the state than if they
had been made wholly out of leg
islative appropriations, for the en
terprtse and progress of the people
are everywhere demonstrated n
this effort to put the good old state
and its magnificent resources to
the front.
This is the first and only time
that*G-orgia has been adequately
represented at any world’s fair,
uu..i tae results obtained with the
limited facilities at hand have been
very gratifying We feel that it
is the duty of every Georgia citi
zen who can possibly spare the
time and the means to visit the
world’s fair and see from personal
observation what res urces we
have at hand and tlje libera! and
far-Ighted business policy pos
sessed by some of our citizens win
have conti ibuted to this nioyemt r .
Tlie mineral exhibit shows that
there is no state in the union, nor
any foreign country, that has more
valuable or varied deposits, where
tue conditions are such that they
can be mined and mallufactured
with better results than Georgia.
Through the liberality of the
board of trade of Savannah, there
is in the foiestry exhibit a magnif
i:eut display, complete in every
respect, from the pine tree to its
finished products, including a tur
pentine plant kindly loaned by Me
Millan Bros., with all of the tools
needed for the purpose of gather
ing, manufacturing and marketing
this va’uable product in the state.
All of the by products of distilled
oils from the rosin are admirably
shown by that portion of the ex
hibit furnished by S. P. Shotter &
Cos.
Through the public spirit and
progressiveness of the Georgia,
Syrup Association, the state de
monstrates the delicate flavor of
this product in a manner that is
attractive to all visitors. Capt
W. W. Sharpe, of Waycross, do
nated a miniature cabin made of
Georgia pine logs, and occupied by
a typical “mammy” who dispenses
iu that way that no other but an
ante-bellum “mammy” knows waf
fles and cakes made of Georgia
grown materials dashed with Geor
gia cane syrup. The results of
this display are manifold.
Iu the central dome of the Pal
ace of Agriculture is a cotton dis
play contributed by the prominent
cotton merchants of the state. In
this cotton dome is also a full and
complete display of the sea island
cottons.
. The Southern Cotton Oil Com
pany, W. W. Gordon & Cos ,of
Savannah, and the Augusta Ex
change. have made the special cot
ion and cotton products exhibit
decidedly the handsomest and most
~complete of its kind in the entire
building. The central feature of
this disp’ay is composed of a large
glass fountain, flowing cotton seed
oil at a rate of 50 gallons per min
ute, and magnificently illuminated

I THINK so. do you?
When I go down the road, a-past th’ stingy Farmer-Man,
An’ see his great, big bulldog £t th’ gate--they call him Dan,
An' keep hitn jest t’ scare th’ little girls an’ boys away
From climbin’ through th’ fence an’ pickin’ up th’ pears that lay
A spoiln’ on th’ ground; an’ when I do git by, at last,
A shyin’ w-a-y around th’ gate, I break an’ run as fast
As ever I can—but keep a turnin’ around t’ take a look,
J* st like a leaf a floatin’ down the riffle of a brook.
No matter when I turn my back, I ni follered by that dog,
Though every time I see him he is like a la/v log.
A sleepin’ by the gate, an’ jest as still as still can be.
An’ not so much as dreamin’ of a-chasin’ after me
Still, every time I pass that Farmer-Man,
An’ see that mouth of‘his, an’ eves that blink so*
I scoot a-past as fast as ever I can—
I know that dog won’t fuller; but I think so.
V\ hen I go dow- th’ street, an’ meet that awful butcher boy
That teases me, an’ tears my clothes, an’ smashes every toy,
I make believe I didn’t mean t’ go down street that day,
An turn aroutiu an try t’ sneak back home some other way.
An t en I wi>h my eves were in th’ back of me instead
Of fiont, so I could watch him, an’ keep goin’ on ahead.
1 h harder that I puff an’ blow, an’ patter with my feet.
Th’ fa Lei conies that butcher boy a-teariti’ down th’ street;
But every time I turn t’ see if he is after me.
There’s nothing ou th’ sidewaik but a baby an’ a tree;
An’ way down town th' bute! e boy is in his daddy’s store,
As if he'd never foller me, ana lick me any more.
Still, I don’t like t’ meet that butcher lad,
’Cept when I'm trottin’ down th’ street with dad.
His little, fat eyes grin at me, an’ wink o,
That when he doesn’t fight, it’s jest as bas;
For, if he doesn’t follei me, I think sol
When nia has tucked me snug in bed, an’ turned th’ lights all off,
An’ I roll over on my side, an’ give a little cough,
Sii ne black tiling makes an answer from th' shadow by th' door—
Some creepy, quiverin’ thing I never noticed there afore;
An’ then, th’ furder down I try t’ crawl beneath the clothes,
Tb’ creepier th’ black tiling in th’ corner grows an’ grows.
At l ist I give a shout, an’ ma conies runnin’ up th’ stair,
1 see what kind of witch or ghost or gnome or spook is there.
She straightens out th’ covers oi: th' bed, turns on the light,
An’ saws No little mail’d get a scared of jest th’ night!’’
An shows me that th' quiverin’thing that made me shout an’
bawl
Is jest the wind a-inovin’ mv old blouse upou th’ wall.
But every night I have a little weep.
An’ scaie at my o’d, yellow blouse, an’ keep
My both eyes wide awake until they blink so
That nn comes in, an’ says: ‘'Now. go to sleep;
I guess th’ thing won’t hurt me—d) you think so?”

by many electric lights of various
colors. Surrounding this fountain
are four plate-glass columns, illum
inated, two filled with soap and
two with different grades of cotton
seed oil.
The general agricullural display
in space 74, practically in the cen
ter of the Palace of Agriculture,
presents to the inquiring public an
absolute refutation of the idea that
Georgians do not, or cannot, sub
sist on exclusively home products
There are eightv-six varieties of
hay, fifty odd varieties of peas, a
magnificent case of Georgia meats
and Georgia corn, showing that
“hog and hominy” is raised at
home- A full and complete exhibit
of grasses and grains of all kinds,
pecans, groundpea.s, corns, cottons,
and in fact all tilings that go to
make up a complete agricultural
display are included.
Very few*are aware of the ex
tent of the tobacco industry of the
state, and the exhibit in tobacco
has excited universal admiration,
not only from Georgians visiting
the tair, but also those interested
in tobacco manufactue and culture
everywhere.
The Georgia state building, as
is generally was built by
funds contributed by the different
cities of the state, the material for
which came from the Georgia Saw
Mill Association, under the direct
supervision of Capt. H. H. Tift, of
Tilton, Qa, The building is com
plete in every respect, and attracts
as much, if not more, attention
than any on the grounds, owing to
the fact of its being a reproduction
of “Sutherland,” the home of Gen.
John B. Gordon, a typical southern
home. It is the only building on
the grounds entirely furnished
with material made and brought
from home.
The Georgia commissioners es
teem it a pleasure and a privilege
to receive any and all Georgians,
and aid them in making the neces
sary comparisons for their own
satisfaction.

THE ELBERTA.
A Ijreat Ru*h of Peaches on at Adairs
ville.
Adairsville, Ga-, July 28, —The
Elberta rush is on. The next few
days will show Adairsville to be
the largest shippers of peaches in
north Georgia and will in a year
or two be the largest in the state.
The growers have gathered 100
cars to date. Thirty should have
left here today, but the shippers
are greatly disappointed because
they can not obtain cars.
The refrigerator people claim
hey cannot give ice. Sixty or
moie cars are due here now, hut
none have come. The streets are
filled with peaches. They are
| stacked and piled up, wagons are
i unloaded, the teams having been
taken back home.
Many tbo'usands of dollars are
at stake and damage is sure to
result.
Rain is eminent and should it
come it will increase the damage.
Buyers have been timid today; few
have been sold—sl.oo is considered
a good price and 85 cents is about
the average f. o. b. cars-
Our greatest rush will occur
Saturday to Wednesday of next
week.

been a dyspeptic ftr years; tried all
kinds of remedies, but continued to
grow worse. By the use of Kodol I
began to improve at once, and after

Healthy Mothers.
Mothers should always keep in
I good bodily health. Tliev owe it to
their children, Yet it is no unusual
; sight to see a mother, with babe in
; arms, coughing violently and ex
hibiting all the symptoms of a con
j sumptive tendency. And why should
1 this dangerous condition exist, dan
gerous alike to mother and child,
"hen Dr. Boscliee’s German Syrup
would put a stop to it at once? No
mother should be without this old
and tried remedy in the houst—for
its timely use will promptly cure any
lung, throat or bronchial trouble in
herself or her children. The worst
cough or cold can be speedily cured
by German Syrup; so can hoarseness
and congestion of the bronchial tubes.
It makes expectoration easy, and
gives instant relief and refreshing
rest to thecough-racked cousumpti*e.
