Victoria's crown.
It Is \\ orth a Million and a Half of
Dollars
The crown worn by Victoria
Weighs nearly two pounds, says the
Pitioburg Dispatch. It comprises
more than three thousand peecious
Bton* s set in various designs. The
most prominent gem is the ruby
given to Edward, the black piince,
tn IVdru, king ot Castile. It is in
the front ot the crown, set in a Mal
tose cross composed of seventy -five
laige diamonds. The lower part of
the crown baud contains a row of
129 pearls, the upper part 112. Be
tween them and in front is a large
saj plnre. Back oi that again is a
smaller sapphire surrounded by six
others and eight emeralds. Between
the two larger sapphires are designs
containing 286 diamonds. Above
the band are eight more sapphires
surmounted by eight diamonds, and
the same number of festoons con
tain 160 diamonds. Besides the
Maltese cross there are thre* o hers
arouud the upper part of the crown
containing 386 diamonds, aDd be
tween the four are four ornaments,
each with a ruby in the center and
containing respectively 84, 85. 86
and 87 diamonds. From the crosses
rise four arches composed of oak
leaves and acorns, the leaves con
taining 728 diamonds. The thirty
two acorns are each of a single pearl
and are set in cups made of fifty
tour diamouds. Above the arches
stands the mound, containing 558
diamonds, and above the mound is
the cross, containing a very large
sspphire, tour very large and 108
smaller diamonds. All the stones
are genuine, and not, as in some
other European crowns, colored
glass, whicli has replaced the genu
ine slones. The crown entire is val
ued at $1,000,000.
JACK FROST IN GEORGIA.
The bard of the Ellijay Courier
thus hymns the glories of Jack
Frost:
‘•Jack Frost! The very name
brings memories of our boyhood,
when Jack Frost was a svnonvm
for cold toes, a red nose, new shoes,
red apples and nuts and a general
ifood time. We can all remember
the fun we need to have in the au
tumn when the time came for corn
shuckings. What a time we had
racing for red *-ars, and turning
-ummersauits in the shuck pens.
And then the chestnut hunts, and
''possum hunts and hunting wild
grapes and gathering the apples—it
was always glorious. Hurrah for
Frost and tne autumn l"

JACKSON, GA., NOVEMBER 16,1893.
1)0 YOUR WORK WELL.
Tallapoosa journal.
Half the people in this life make
failures of their careers because th* y
cultivate the habit of doing
small things well. In nis secret
heart probably no man thinks his
ability has ever been recognized at
its true worth. He is employed at
small tasks, working for small pay,
when to his .mind he ought to be
doing great things, getting high
wages. Nine times oit of ten the
man who thinks this neglects in
consequence the small humble task
he is eet to do. He despises the
business that brings him bread. He
gets only cheap wages, tberelore he
will give cheap work He is ilis
contented, he is unhappy, he is
ready to strike, change his business
or even slighting his task even to
the extent of cheating his employer
as far as he dares without getting
himself discharged. By and by he
does get himself discharged. Then
he rails at fate and rich men worse
than ever.
No man ever succeeded in life
who did not put his conscience into
his work, whatever it was. If you
agree to perform certain labor in
return for certain wages, however
small, you have gold your time and
abiity. Do that work the best it can
be done. Form the habit of putting
the best of youn-elf into all you do.
Work with enthusiasm over the
small tasks that are your lot at
present, always in hopes that great
er ones will come to you by and by.
They will he sure to come. Many a
time the small task done conscien
tiously and with enthusiasm, itself
affords the very clew to the greater
task ana the larger remuneration.
But it is absolutely certain that no
man who has not the habit of doing
his best on whatever work he is
engaged will ever fill any high
place whatever. It is not in the
book* that he snould.
Let us always be or the lookout
for grander opportunities. Life
would not be worth living except for
that. But let us at the same time
strengthen ourselves to seize the
great opportunity bv making the
most out of our small opportunities.
It is the only way. It is the mean
mg cf the sayiig, ‘ Unto him that
hath shall be given.' Know ttiis :
In the grand roundup each individ
ual comes much nearer getting just
what be deserves than is generally
suj posed.

A MAN SHOT.
WHILE ATTEMPTING TO BURN HIS
neighbor's barn.
About six miles kouth of Jac ks! n,
near Mt. Vernon church, lives Mr.
Jack Waloroup and Mr. Waid.
They live on adjoining farms and
are close neighbors. For two years
these two men have been at ‘‘outs,’'
and many difficulties have arisen
between them Recently Mr. WaL
droup has bought Mr. Ward's farm
and shortly he was to move away,
out anew difficulty arose between
them by Mr. 'Valdroup's horse get
ting out and doing some depreda
tions about Mr. Ward’s premises.
It is claimed that Ward made some
threats that he would burn his
neighbor out and fearing that he
would carry these threats out, Mr.
Waldroup and his two sons posted
themselves to watch their premises,
and shortly alter dark saw their man
stealthily creeping up to their barn
in his stocking teet. The young
men demanded him to hale and a
fight ensued and Ward received two
wounds, one in the Daek and one in
the right shoulder. Dr. Kelly, of
Indian Springs, was called and he
found the wounded in a field near
the barn in a badly wounded condi
tion and but little could be done to
relieve his suflering. He made sev
eral conflicting statements concern
ing hia being near Wald roup’.t barn
with matches in his pocket.

We call special attention to our
clubbing arrangement with the great
southern weekly, the Atlanta Consti
tution, which enables U 9 to offer both
papers for the remarkably low sum of
$i 40 a year. The first duty of every
good citizen is to patronize his home
paper. He wishes to become thor
oughly conversant with his county
matters, and only through his home
paper can he expect to be supplied
with the current county news, which
is of tlie closest interest to him.
After he has provided himself with
his home paper his next consideration
of those who are not within easy
reach of a first-class daily newspaper
should be to select a first-class weekly
newspaper supplying all the general
news ot the world, and paying special
attention to features which are of par
ticular interest to the household and
the farm.
Just such a paper is The Weekly
Constitution, published at Atlanta,
Ga., and having a circulation of
156,000 copies a week, the largest ot
any weekly newspaper published in
America. It is essentially a farmer’s
paper and stands at the head of the
weekly press of this country. Its
agricultural department alone is
worth the subscription price cf the
paper, while it numbers among its
contributors such well known uames
as Bret Ham, Mark Twain, Joel
Chandler Harris, Sarge Plunkett, Bill
Arp, and a host of others, whose rep
utations are world wide. Its women
an children’s departments are pre
pared with a special view to please the
little folks aud the women, and its
news columns literally cover the face
of the earth.
We ate enabled to offer both paners
at practically the price of on* , and we
will take great pleasure in forwarding
to The Constitution any names sent
us in connection with our clubbing
offer at the remarkably low price
above given.
