It would snap at everything coming within its reach- By many it is thought the pig was bitten by a mad dog at some time, without the knowi ecae the owner, Several children were bitten by this pig but we hope it will not terminate in anything serious. No More Church Fairs in Atlanta. The Ministers’ Evangelical Associa¬ tion of Atlanta, which includes min¬ isters of all the denominations, de¬ nounces in strong terms the holding of church fairs, festivals, oyster suppers, etc., for the purpose, of raising money for church purposses. They regard them as sort of frolics that go to the world with church endorsement and are calculated to lower the standard cf Christianity in the community in which they are practiced.

A Woman’s Ilomily on the. Duty a man Owes to His Wife. If men would be as honest with their own wives as they are with the wivts of other men, they would not be so many broken homes. A Ilian falls in love wit It a woman ami the first tiling he does is to try to make of him ¬ self—v.-nen iie is with her—something as near her ideal as possible. He does not stop to consider that tier ideal at be-t is only a theory formed of inex¬ perience and ignorance of the world If he would be honest, and teach her that even at his worst there was sorae thing to love, and a heart that, what ever its faults, would keep all its truth fur her, he would not tire of her, of himself and of hisbome. Because the restraint lie is under, and the thought that his wife would not respect him if she knew him as he knows himself, a reaction sets in and companionship is sought that is some times the stepping-stone to endless miseary to himself or some one else. It is human to be natural. If a man has laid the foundation of his married life in such a manner that he daie not oe himself, he is going to let. the tension down and find pleasure away from home. And it is not at all the lesua o' demoralization, either. j It is human nature disguised or on the wrong platform. Husbands and wives expect toi much or ton little of each other. They expect too touch saiulM ness and too little human nature. It is a mistake for a husband to start out on the matrimonial mad with the thought that bis wife could not love him just exactly as he is. She wiil love him as lie is, or what she thinks j he, is, but she will cling to the first ini j piession it it is wrong, then some time will come an awakening. Here is some advice to bad husbands. The “models” ideal or genuine, can take care of themselves. If you can’t be a‘‘model” be honest. Cultivate a leeling of good comradeship with your wile. Unless too ill iiiv have gone > y for you to succeed in making her over, you will find that you can have just as good a tune with her and at the, sam - time retain a self-re :pect that never comes in cultivating the “comrades” that know your real sell so lllilcll tiet ter than your wife. As lor hei it will not unsex her to become better acquainted witli you, but it will lift Ibe shadows of suspicion from her heart, suspicions that come &rq"'dlnga i> -i 1 lT')UL' *4.’ ,, 1 is something lacking in her life. 1 The ! cloud" 1 idle up, and being a true wo man there is no way Lir tier to fill the void, while you as a m m are protect¬ ed bv society’s lenient rules tn.it are extended to m-n, ami there is nothing to prevent your seekm r jolly coiupuu ionshiy—some where else. Found dead. Mr. Wm. T. Mullikin. formerly re¬ sided in this place, and the sad news of his uutimel.ydeith will no doubt lie re¬ ceived witii-regiet iiy many friends and acquaintances in this place."

Mr. Mullikin was a good farmer, a splendid cotton grower, and a man wh "as well liked by his neighbors. II* was himself his worst enemy, and hi greatest fault was strong drink. He leaves a fond wife and lovfng child to mourn his death. He was aliout vear3 of age. His death is indeed a sad one. 1 fw»F^Hrkii KtOUND I RED HILL. V-; . • UV YOtl BET. t .'tftd l iuf weather.
