Brown October
Da
There can be nothing m all the
bulging season like a real brown
October duv in Georgia—with a
circus in town and cotton selling
for oyer twenty live cents a pound
ham and sale meat in the sm dee
ho .S', fodder pulled, and cverv
crib cracking with yellow corn in
the ear, a lew bushels of
1 >id bv for the light bread nr.d
bi cuit and yams and Irish pota
toes close bv where, the
sett'es in the barrel.
Long l ues of cou dry wagons
rumbling over the pavements be
hind fat and'newly capirboued
mules, wagons new ant I red witn
extra spring seat-, children their
faces shining with soap and their

wonder shot and trembling w th
repressed jov behind the man with
the re gns and pavs not the slight

of tr.e thousands of Fords, Max

leading to Mr.con, bringing the
countryfolks to the most famous
circus in the world bore up the
caravansaries of piotperity to the
cente. of pleasure.
These be God’s good tunes in
Georgia. And its a great pity
that Frank Stanton couldent have

Proved It By The
Paper
There is one man in the United
States who will never again say
that lie dosen’t lx live the news
papers, lie will probably light
any man who says that you can’t
believe what you see in the pap
ers, for a musty old newspaper
sived him from a term in the pen
itentiarv.
Tins gentleman lives out West,
lie diden’l register because he
claimed to be to young—by some
thing like six months. But the
town g; s«ips said lie was old
enough; they knew exactly when
he was born, ami the toll 'he gov
eminent. One old w-oman said lie
was bom two weeks lifter her
Rachael was born, and Rachael
vas twenty two.
An old he gossiper said he re
membered ihe date of the birth
because it was the same week he
sold a horse, and that was twenty
two we" rs ago. Stdi another town
his orian said It was when they
nud the big sto'in on M ulrmt Kun
twenty one ami a nad: years
ago to the very day. So the gov
eminent arrested the fellow and
he was being tried as a slacker.
An old editor wobbled into the
court room with a bundle of news
papers under his arm. tic had
been an eoitor i 1 ' that town for
thirty yeais, and if ever the tie
fendant was born at all, it was re
corded in his newspaper—and the
date was correct. So he thumb
eu through his iilo of papers, and
there it was~“Born so the wile
of So and S o, yesterday, a heuns
ing boy, weight ten pounds; con
gratulations, John.”
1 hat settled it—th; re it was in
the paper. The government said
it wps satisfied, for tee d ;te show
cd boyTa be Jess-tban-d u eR ti-one
and the court said it was satisfied
for the okl newspap: r would be
taken for the best evidence. And
the old woman and the town his
.onan were greatly disconcerted,
