TIIE HIGHEST AWARD.
Dr. P rice’s Baking Powder receives it.
(.Chicago Tribune.)
For leavening power, keeping qual
ities, purity and general excelleucy
the World’s fair jury decided that Dr.
Price’s Cream Baking Powder has no
equal. On each of its claims it was
awarded a first prize or a diploma.
All the baaing powders entered for
prizes were subject to a most exhaust
live examination, and the jury was
the best equipped to make the decis
ion of any ever gotten together. Their
verdict was supported by the te-ti
rnony of Dr. 11. W. Wiley, chief
chemist of the United States depart*
merit of Agriculture at Washington.
Dr. Wiley is an expert in tood pro
d nets and the highest authority on
such matters in America. This ver
dict settles a long debated question as
*o which among the many baking
powders arc the best.
Glassware and crockery—big
stock, beautiful line, prices low.
See me before you buy and save
money. a. g hitchins.
THE GRIFFIN DEBATE.
We congratulate the party in the fact
that in the event of the nomination of
either Evans or Atkinson, the whola
party can support him freely, for either
geutleman would make a good governor.
In debate Mr. Evans is no match for “W.
Y,” and yesterday it was a victory for
Atkinson beyond a doubt. When the
speaking was finished Atkinson was car
ried through the streets on the should
ers of his enthusiastic friends, to the
News building followed by an enormous
crowd.
WhenW. Y. asked the General what
he wanted to do with the Soldiers.’
Home? He replied that he would sell it,
W. Y. read from the Atlanta Journal
an interview with the General two years
ago that didn’t say so then. Mr. Atkinson
then exclaimed: ‘Tam the only man
who ever run for governor in this state,
who could truthfully claim that he had
ever converted a preacher.” The Giiffiu
crowd a* the end of of the debate were
three to one for Atkinson.
SUNDAY SCHOOL ASSOCIATION
The quarterly session of the Butts
County Sunday School association will
