Every man that says, Lord. Lord,

Kingdom of the redeemed. About as
many go to h—l out of the Amen
corner as from the rear benches.
You can sell a fellow a mule and
promise to cellect half the note in
the fall, and after he pays half, fore
close your mortgage and then call
him brother and Bay you are praying
for him, but precious little does ho
care for your prayers. You can’t spit

Don’t say this old world Is a fraud.
You are simply lying. inward,
bud, look inward.
The sorriest cues on earth is the
fellow that will let his wife walk
feet blistered trying to quiet, a collicy
baby, and about one o’jiock in the
morning raise the devil with that
worn out wife because she wont l>t
the baby nurse. You dirty dog!
The boy that hangs out of school
and spends the day in the woods, and
goes home to lie to bis mother about
it, will eventual.y hang at the smuli

Don’t cuss luck. Cuss yourtnfi

Thb house of Representatives by a

When a man insists on constantly
announcing his faith in anything, it
is a sign that he himself is beginning
to doubt it.
Since the campaign of last year the
Atlanta papers have undergone a re
markable moral change. Then they
published about the guberenatoria 1
candidate* all sorts of moral rot, but
now they decline to publish in detail
the testimony in the Trial on the
gr turd that it is too dirty for their
columns. We trust the Atlanta pa
pers will always here-after wear clean
linen. — Ex.
HOG PENS.
The ordinance passed by the town
council forbidding the keeping of hogs
in town is not observed by many of
the citizens of JacksoD.
The ordianceis somewhat too man
datory and broad. We think a strict
ordinance as to the manner of keeping
the pen would be far better.
No doubt the marshals would pa
trol the town and keep an eye open
for violations of an ordinance against
filthy hog pens if they were required
to do so.
They really need a diversion of
this sort to break the monotony of
hanging around the Court house
square. One hog in a half acre patch
or even an eighth of an acre, would
rot create any filth and it is foolish
to say one shall not keep a hog in town
at all, to say nothing of keeping a
hog in a pen, or enclosure of this char
acter.
To say the least of it, the council
should modify the ordinance, or
cause all to observe it.
AUGUSTA PAPER BURNED.
The Chronicle newspaper building
at Augusta, was gutted by fire at an
early hour last Wednesday morning,
also distroying the plant of the West
ern Union Telegraph Company, total
loss about $150,000.

In the beginning God created the
heavens and earth, then the editor
and the liberal advertiser —which was
good. The next day it snowed and He
created the man who does not believe
In advertising, another who does not
take the home paper—then he rested.
Then the devil got into the moulding
room and created the mail who takes
the paper for several years and fails to
pay for it. After he had accomplished
that sorry job and had a few more
lumps left, he created the excuse of a
man who settles his subscription by
informing the postmaster to mark his
paper “refused.”—Ex.

Shortly after Congressman Maddox

Most people know that if they have
been sick they need Scott's Emttl m
s/on to bring back health and strength.
But the strongest point about Scott's
Emulsion is that you don’t have to be
sick to get results from it
It keeps up the athlete’s strength, puts fat
6n thin people, makes a fretful baby happy,
brings color to a pale girl’s cheeks, and pre
vents coughs, colds and consumption.
Food in concentrated form for sick and
well, young and old, rich and poor.
And it contains no drugs and no alcohol.
