Ballttiitrf' of a Southern Editor*
A Salt Lake City belle visited Wash
ington, I). C. recently and while there
learned something about Southern
gallantry
She is a strikingly handsome young
married woman, is stylish and has a
splendid contralto voice that has occa
sioned favorable comment from Ysaye
and other artist. She accompanied
the wife of Senator Brown of Utah to
a social function where she met sev
eral of the nation’s dignitaries. None
made such an impression as Senator
Bates of Tennessee. The Senator from
Tennessee is 60 years old, but that
fact does not lessen his appreciation
of the charms of radiant young
womanhood. He bowed over the
beauty’s hand a moment, received one
of her smiles in return and after an
exchange of commonplaces passed on.
In ten minutes he returned, threading
his way through the crowded parlor
to where the belle sat. He bowed low
again, this time presenting her a huge
bouquet of dewy pink roses.
“If you are a sample of Utah girls,
I waut you to pay my respects to
them thus through you/’ he said
That won the beauty’s heart.
“Wasn’t it nice?” she wrote to a
friend in the city. “He is really the
most gallant of old genrlemen. Of
course Mr. Brown and I was delight
ed/’ —St. Louis Republic.
A Stroke of Paralyi*.
Col. C. A. Ndes has had a stroke of
paralysis at his home in Atlanta.
Mr. Niles gave up his position on the
staff of the Columbus Enquirer-Sun
and moved to Atlanta several months
ago to resume the practice of law,
but his health has been in such con
dition sm CQ that he has been unable
to attend to business, Mr. Niles’
many friends all over the state will
regret to hear of his illness, and wish
for him a speedy recovery.
We notice that J. R. Carmichael
has the agency for the famous Sum

son and Butts county. Mr. Carmich

JACKSON, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1896.
Pat and the Bull.
A festive Hibernain, taking his way
beneatli the light of the set ting sun,
decided to facilitate his progress by
taking a path through a meadow,
which decreased the distance of the
road by half a mile.
About the center of the field he re
membered that a particularly savage
bull was “grassed” there; but to turn
bacK was impossible, as the uncertain
light rendered the whereabouts of the
animal a mystery.
“Be jabers !*’ exclaimed Pat, after
scratching his head a moment, “one
of them poet fellows had said that
music can blarney the savage beast.
Here goes for ould Oireland,” and he
stuck up, wit'’ more zeal than melo
dy, “Erin Go Bragh.”
In a moment a hoarse bellow an
nounced that the bull was listening.
They both reached the stile togeth
er, and there was a toss up as to who
should be over first, in which Pat was
aidt.d by the bull.
When he recovered, and lay watch
ing the bull endeavoring to climb the
fence, he muttered:
“By gun, either that poet feller’s a
liar or I sung the wrong tune.”—New
York Mercury.
Probably So.
First Commercial Traveler—The
bootblack told me this evning that
room you slept in last night had the
reputation of being haunted.
Second Commercial Traveler—Well
I shouldn’t be suprised if that were
so, I killed a few there last night
myself.—Somerville Journal.

Tbe success of Hood’s Sarsaparilla in
conquering scrofula in what ever way it
ma? manifest itself is vouched for by
thousauds who where severely afflicted
by this prevalent diseases, but who now
ejoice oyer a perrna ueut care by Hood’s
Sarsaparilla. Scro ula may appear as a
humor, or it may attact the glands of
the neck, or break out iu dreadful run
niujjorjs on the body or limbs. At
taking the mucous mberauee, it may
develop into eatenh or leding in th
luugs lead to consumption. Come as it
may, a faithful course of treatment with
Hood's Sarsaparilla will over come it, for
working upon the foundation of all dis
eases, impure blood, the system is clar
ified and vitalized, and vigor, strength
and health restored to the body.
Keep at It.
“Keep everlastingly at it” is an ad
age that means a great deal in busi
ness, bub it doesen’t mean to keep
butting your head against a stone wall,
unless your purpose is to beat your
brains and life out. Many business
men may be beating the life of their
business out against a stone wall
without recalling it. That wall may
prejudice ; it may be a lack of appre
ciation of opportunities; it may be a
forgetfulness of, or failure to under
stand the value of letting the people
know what you have to sell. Let
ting them know is advertising. In
advertising you may“ keep everlasting
ly at it,” but the question is, are you
keeping at it in the right way? In
advertising it is necessary that one
thoroughly understands that the
greater the number of the purchasing
class reach through a legitimate and
reliable medium, the greater value of
the advertisement. The masses are
the ones who answer advertisements.
The Argus goes into the homes and
close to the hearts of the masses.
Hector D. Lane, of Alabama, pres
ident of the American Cotton Grow
ers’ Association, has written an open
letter to cotton growers giving them
the results of his investigations of the
crop yield of this year and also his ad
vice as to prices and how they should
market their crops. He tells the
planters that his investigations in
each cotton state force him to the
conclusion that the crop will not ex
ceed 7,500,000 bales; that recent
rains did no good; that long drouth
makes the staple weigh light and
that therefore, because also of in
creased acreage, the cost of produc-
tion has increased. He therefore ad
vises the slow marketing of the crop,
so as to realize as good prices as pos
possible, and claims the surplus on
hand being smaller compared to de
mand, than ever before, places the
situation in control of the plant
ers instead of the buyers if the plant
ers act prudently and judiciously.
Again, he presses upqn the planters
the necessity of decreasing acreage
and raising more lood crops, insisting
that the buyers make use of increased
acreage to force prices down.

Her Mouth.
It is said that a certain English por
trait painter has almost as great a rep
utation for joking as for taking excel
lent likeness. One evening he was
speaking of a beautiful young girl
whose portrait he had just finished.
“Her features are exquisitely mold
ed, I have heard, 77 said a friend who
had seen neither the portrait nor the
original.
“Beautiful forehead an l eyes, 77 re
plied the artist, concisely, “handsome
nose, fine chin, mouth like an ele
phant’s. 77
“Mouth like an elephant's?' 7 echoed
liis friend in dismay. “What a terri
ble misfortune? Do you mean that it
is so enormous and—what do you
mean? 77
Only that it is lined with superb
ivory, madam. 77 returned the artist
with his usual gravity.
The Bible behind the age? Yes, it
came down to us embalmed in dead
language; its history is of people of
the long ago; its imagery is drawn
from antivuity. It talks of shepherds
and chariots and spears and helmets
and sandals. But the hearts of the
men of those days were like the hearts
of the men of to day. There dress
and speech are antique, their souls,
are modern. When we come to the
climax of divine revelation in the per
son of Jesus, we see a strange face.
Its outline is familiar enough. But
the great brotherly sympathy of
Jesus, his love as boundless as the
sea, his unselfish service, his patient
sacrifice his broken heart, these d°
not belong either to the past of earth
or to the present. This age has not yet
reached the divine manhood of Jesus.
W e are far behind him as yet. Jesus
is the one ideal man way beyond the
best of humanity, where he beckons
us on and up to the prize of the high
calling.—Ex.
