Dr. White is responsible for the
truthfulness of the following, and
h« declares it- is positively, com¬
paratively and superlatively true
He went bird limiting one day last
week and while on his way back
home about sundown bis pointer
pup pointed a lotof birds, and tho
doctor, not knowing it, came on
home. After supper the dog could
not- be found. The next morning
the dog had not put in an appear¬
ance, so the doctor started out (o
hunt his fine pointer pup and on
going to where ho saw the dog last
ou the afternoon before and look¬
ing around a little he found it,
still on a point, where it had re¬
mained all night and until eight
o’clock the next morning Just
sa-v something about a pointer
dog in the hearing of Dr. White
and he immediately pulls off his
hat, runs Jii.s hand through bis
long hair, takes a spell of seme-
thing like St. N itus dunce, gets
bigger and higner until he leacle-b
the dimensions o( a ku-klux. Zh¬
says he is confident he bus the
most sensible dog in Georgia.
Georg j White says the dog is a
fool and simply did not have sense
enough to leave the birds and go
home.

Williams was put on trial,
File prosecution and defense
U( , rf> .,|,)y conducted by promi-
nent lawyers. Williams was con-
victed und sentenced to ten yours
,,, the penitentiary. The darkness
despair now settled upon him.
Tho door of hone eeomed forever
closed. Tho shades of guilt en¬
compassed him. His cup of agony
was full to overflowing.
But, unexpectedly, a ray of
of light penetrated the gloom. It
was then that Woman's love, like
the flower blossoming in tho arid
desert, and spreading its beams
over the barren plain of the hu¬
man heart, rose upon the black
am! desolate scene. Tho young
wife, whom Williams had so
wrongfully forsaken in order that
he might sin with another, does
not forget him in the depths of his
ignominy and shame, but in he¬
mic devotion she comes to the
side of berdisgraced husband and
seeks to save him from a convict's
gart> and a felon’s life. Though
lie had discarded her for another
—though her heart was weighted
with gri'-f and was hearing the ex¬
treme of human suffering on ac-
■ ount. of his perfidy—yet she
would saw him.

scribe to this Agreement—tho wife
relinquishing her c’aim, devising
a plan of escape and bestowing
her blessing on iier wayward hus¬
band, and the girl agreeing to be¬
come the wife of the man with
whom she has sinned—then there
well be none to stnudbe tween
Williams and his liberty. Though

Some writer has said;
what tales might woman tell, of
broken vows and severed hearts—
of withered hopes and bruised af¬
fections. 1 thank God woman lias
a power of her own, to which,
some day or other, every man
must bow; lie may revile, he may,
like a coward, attack her fair
fame; but sooner os later hu must
bow at the footstool of her beau¬
ty and innocence and confess to
the loveliness which lie lias as-
assailed and the heart which he
has insulted. It is well for the
world that woman has a power
arising from her virtue and beau¬
ty, which binds in a chain of in¬
visible power (lie strong to dm
weak. That love—that tremend¬
ous power—still exists, and is as
strong as ever—and it would be
well for the ravilers i f women to
remember that the day must come
when they will bow in shame be-
f ore the unsullied altar of love and
beauty, whose Humes they have
Lied to extinguish forever.'’

next consider the price. That is
sensible.
That explains the whole mat-

cheap vehicles at all. We decide
on the best wagons and buggies
