The bank making the ship ment was the m e that handled the money with which Spain was paid for ’ the Philippine Islands, and, as it is managed by exceptionally shrewd men, it is but natural that there should be a desire to know why the gold was shipped at a lose if, in fact, it was shipped at a loss. One theory advanced is that the bank wanted to depress the prices of stocks by creating the impression that there was a movement of gold out of the country. If that theory ia correct the purpose sought was not accomplished, but it is hardly H reasonable that so great a bank would 1 engage in any such business Trust securities are net popular with investors because there is a well based ’ fear that the most of them will never be worth as much as the public is asked r to pay for them. It is believed that 6 pretty nearly all of the trusts are over capitalized, and that very few of them will ever pay dividends on their shares. Anyway, tho public is inclined to wait and see what the earning capacities of i the trusts are. , It is worth noticing that the banks , are lighting rby of trust securities > They don’t intend to be caught with ’ their vaults full of them at a lime * when the value of such securities is doubtful. Investors are taking their | cue from the banks. They are well ! established and dividend-paying trusts which of course have the confidence of the public. The trusts to which ti e public is giving a wide berth are the great number of new ones which have I been created within the last few weeks. , Their securities amount to thousands i of millions of dollars. Unless they prove that they are dividend-earning, their securities are likely to remain in t the possession of the original owners. —Savannah News That Throbbing Headache Would quickly leave you, if you used Dr. King's New Life Pills.

The Kind You Have Always Boughl » I GRIFFIN, GEORGIA, FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 9, 1899. A GRINDSTONE GARDEN " j The Curious Fancy of an Oldtime Res ident cf Storkville Centre, Vt. r 1 A »j; gular ebar: cti r iu In.- way,’’ said Col. Calliper, “wns my old friend, . Philander Kuobstaw, who formerly y lived StorkvilD Center, Vt. Mr. Knob staw was a man with a foudnete for flowers and that sort of thing, and his flower garden was one of th? pleascnt e est sights in Stotkville Center; but it r wag his griu dstone garden that most g attracted attention, specially among j strangers, who never failed to maivel when they saw it. g “Air Knobstaw had read, it s<emg, 9 in his early youth, the more or lees j familiar paragraph about the tree that g had grown up in the opening through an old, discarded grindstone, and that t bad at last tilled the opening and then t lifted the grindstone clear of the t ground, and 1 suppose li- must have been kind of fascinated by this story, I for when he had come into ; .issegsion of bis property, after the death <4 his ! parents, which was when he w»s still j quite a young man, be set about the r cultivation of his gtindstotie garden i promptly. He bought in the vi’iage a t dozen grindstones of various sizes, and r here and there, in a space that he de voted to the purpose, he laid them ( down and planted saplings to grow tip t and lif them. I “Then he had years to wait, bn mil so many as you might imagine, for be . planted a variety of trees, including . some quick growth, planting the j thick-growth trees in the smallest 3 grindstones. And, as a matter of fact, s the first tree began to lift its atone in r about eigl.t years. This wasn’t a big grindstone. It was really more like a 3 stone collar or roll! i arout.d this tree , after the tree had grown up, but it j was a giindtt nc, ami the tree was , lifting it, and from the beginning Mr. j Kuobstaw watched it with emlhss in terest and unfailing care.' . “And, as a matter of fact, they r.l] , needed care, (or, as may be imagined,! none of them lifted the stone nro-ied I , them evenly and truly at first ; it would have been a marvel if they had ; j and Knobstak bad to watch out and prop up this edge of one ami (he other edge of another, and eo on around the I grindstone garden ; but a the coursr'i 1 of time he had the fi li ity <4 seeing all I the stones lifted clear of the ground, and then by almost imperceptible, but , to him delightful, d gnes, lie saw them keep co, until they were sufficiently [ high above the ; round to erve as seats. “Then Philander Kuowstaw let the ' public in—he h I ■> m time t- lime: , admitted a few friends, and few folks | ■ bad looked over the fence —iml much I • l the public Wondi red ; and Pnilandsr ’ j was gratified. In the course of time, ,I as the trees grew, thy lifted the grind ,-1 stones too high io servo as seats —then I it was that the grl: -'-.u.m- cams out on its tree, as I told you like a ’ stone collar, or luff; and they aii k-1 ed odd enough, up at difi’erei.t bight*,' I ; six feet, eight fee', .-erne ten ;• et above I 1 j tho ground. In that slope the garden ' I was really more wonderful than < ver ; r and wonderful it :emained fm a mog r time ; a great curiosity—perhaps you might eay, the great curiosity of Stork villo Center. “But whet) Philander died th? days of the grindstone garden were num-*! lb: rid.
