Entered as second-class mat ter February 22, 1907 at the Post Office at Jackson, Ga., under the act of Con gress of March 3, 1879. Parents of a spoiled child are hard ly as much to he pitied as the child. 1 • Some people are honest and sincere as long as it doesent cost tuem any thing. Too many women ure dissatisfied with themselves because they are women. -- - The German affirms that every daughterof Eve would ruiiier be beau tiful that good. 'Tis better to have loved and lo t • than to have mrrried and bought fur niture on lho installment plan. A girl cau forgive anybody for thinking she has a sweet disposition If she lias wavy hair and can wear shoes too small for her. It is not always easy to forgive "ne : s enemies, hut that does not matter so much, as nowadays it is oftener we are called upon to forgive our friends. At San Antonio, Tex., last week a preacher of the gospel was arrested for having live wives. Love such as that, like the love of whieh lie preach ed, "passeth all understanding.” ‘‘As riches come, old helpmeets go,” is being proven in many instan ces nowadays. The good wife who shared the burdens when in straight ened circumstances is cast aside for some ilrtutious young miss, who is out for a good time. In most stares a man must puss an examination to be entitled to run a stationary engine; but any fool that can get a cnance seems to be com petent to rui. an automobile, Isn't it about time we began looking into the qualification of the meu who rush about our roads with these mau-kill •rs? There is one thing that ought to make a young buck blush away back behind h's ears, and that is to be guilty of disturbing public worship. It is said th it a young Gent, who don’t live more than u sabbath day’s journey from Jackson, behaved so disgracefully one night last week at Camp-Meeting that the big burly po liceman had to threaten to eject h m from the grounds. It does look like ayouugcub who has nothing but his good looks and his intelligence to reccommeud him, would put both do n better use. Did't evt>r strike you that women sometimes kiss when they had rather ■cratch at each other? The act of shaking hands is a i ledge of friend ship, that of kissing a token of love. The pledge is often given when there Is no friendship; the token, when in stead of love, hate rankles in the bor om ot those who kiss. Why cot dis continue both when prompted by de ception, or carlesely indulged in? Two women were scon to k : ss last Sunday at Camp Meeting, then ore went off rubbing her mouth with her sleeve. A thing naturally sweet becomes very revolting. The Senatorship. The time has come when the peo ple must begin to think about who will represent them in the state sen ate, and in passing it is well enough to remark that something more is de manded than a man to fill a chair in the seriate chamber at the state caf itol. We need a man who will leave footprints in the political sands as he passes along. Such has been tradi tional of old Butts County from time immemorial. With such men as Judge Markus Beck and Hon. Alex ander Atkinson Butts has stood sec ond to no district in Georgia. We will do well to take into considera tion the fine record of Senator .1. J Fiynt of Spaulding, then the voters of old Butts will demand that some on* run that will uphold the honor that the district enjoys abroad. The people will insist ou a man with nerve, brains, aggression and execu tive ability. In other words a man that will keep it fresh in the mind of the public at large that there is a twenty sixth district, and that Butts County is a member of that district. Boar in mind that, there are only For ty Four senators in the Georgia Sen ate, and then remember that the seu ace fell down on more than one im portant niece of legislation in tilt last session. We of course don t know the cause of all this, but we do know that we want men that wont back down at a trifle, men with abil ity, tenucity of purpose and enough brains to know what is best under the circumstances, and nerve enough to stand in the face of corporate in fluence and do the right thing for the people at the right time. Butts Cos lias such men within her borders, and the season is at hand when the people should look about for a man that will (ill all these specifications and —one that stands untrammelled, and uncontrolled by any click or ring. Such a man can be found, we are sure, and when found the people will rally to ins support, ar.d old Butts will once again be in the van of the procession, with banner unfurled, and possibly on the road to higher honors. He’s Somewhat Drastic, In reference to the candidacy ot Col. O. M Duke for the senacorship we quote tlit following from the Fay lttevill" News : “We knew not how others may feel, but we are frank to say that f Butts County can’t get up better material for senatorial honors than the aforesaid gentleman she is in a bad way and would do well to borrow from spauldlng and return the pres ent senator, the Hon. J. J.Flynt.” The abive smacks somewhat of overofiloiousness, and the thrusting in of actvice where it is noither asked for nor wanted. Col. Duke of course can’t enter into a controversy with Editor Culpepper when the price would be hts own self respect. A writer in the Review of Review-* sums up the qualities of the country weekly paper as follows: ‘‘Each copy is read notonlv by the people usuall credited to the ordinary paper bui twice that number. In many instan ces subscribers pass their papers on and on to inmates of less fortunate aomes. These publications are pre eminently the home papers of news paperdom. They are not superficially scanned while men crawl to business, then left to brakemen to be gathered up. They go directly into homes and the reeding of them is a duty as well vs u pleasure Hence their peculiat value as minders of public opinion. Be happy now.
