Washington, D. C., Feb. 18.—Repre theory that after many soldiers now in France visit their homes and are out of the army for two or three months, they will again enlist for a brief pe riod. Resistance to Small Army However, the majority portion of his speech was directed at the general staff of the army. He openly declared that the resistance to a return to the former peace footing of 175,000 men in the line which, with other forces, would give this country a peace time army of 250,000, which, in an emergency, could be increased to 400,- 000 men, was the opposition of that branch of the army which hopes to keep in existence a large number of high commissioned officers. He said the fight , then before the house was to fasten on the country an army of 500,000 jn peace times. He declared that when it became apparent that congress would not countenance this then it was sought by special legislation to secure an army of that size, for the ensuing fiscal year in the hope that at the end of that time it could be made permanent. The purpose here is trtying to take care of rank, he told the house,, and said that should the army be reduced to the size permitted by the national defense act that hundreds of officers' who had been rapidly promoted during the war would be dropped back to their former status and that this was what the army was seeking to avoid. “They have in France an army suffi cient to wind up America’s affairs there. What they want is a great army for this country,” he said, and the Democratic side of the chamber applauded him.—Macon Telegraph. NYSON NIBBLES.

Wasted Patience. He was a green Scottish lad, and one of his duties was to answer the tele phone. When first called on to do so, in reply to the usual query: “Are you there 7” he nodded assent. Again the question came and again and yet again, and each time the boy gave the an swering nod. When the question came for the fifth time, however, the boy, losing his temper, roared through the transmitter: “Man, are ye blin*?

It Is a fascinating bnsiness, that of bee farming, and a business which notwithstanding the fact that it dates back to prehistoric times, is even yet an infant Industry. Which is to say, it is not one-fourth developed to the potential limit. There is an immense amount of honey wasted every year because there are not enough bees to gather It. A REAL MAN. »•»»»»»€««<««« It is pretty hard to assert your independence and defy the world when you havfe an empty pocket book and no bank account. The prudent man who has sav ed % little, who has a reserve at the Bank to tide him over a month or more, isn’t so afraid of sickness, or such a coward about being out of a job. A bank account is a stimu lant to real manhood. The larger the account, the firmer the footing. It breeds self-confidence, is a proof of efficiency, and an ever present resource in time of need. It’s not what a man earns in a year that gives him a surplus, it’s what he saves. Don’t make the mistake of wait ing nntil you are old to start sav ing. Start today. We give care ful attention to all accounts, large or small. BANK OF FAYETTEVILLE. 1* THERE’S A REASON Why we are proud of the progress we made the past year, and THERE’S A REASON Why we made it.
