A Card from Judge Leigh,
New .van, Ga., May 26, 1888.
Eihtok Griffin News:—D ear
Sir— I was handed a copy of your
pape/ of 24 th instant yesterday, and
in your Haralson correspondence
(Cousin Dixie) was the following
item :
“Hon. C. W. Williams, from Mer
iwetber, read Judge Ben Leigh’s
short letter in the II. & A. on high
thrill, wheal 4 feet, corn and 12 inch
3 square cotton, and authorized me
<o siy he (Williams) pronounced the
short letter contend an imagination
or giddiness on lH part ot Judge
L’s strayed or stolen brain on h’gh
ta ! iff and protection or a dream.
Hon. C. W. W. ini.iIts a writ of lun¬
acy sboulu.be sued out for Judge L.
and the jury’s verdict should be a
recommendation to President Cleve¬
land to appoint the Judge governor
of Cuba.”
Now Mr. Editor, if the Hon. C. W.
Williams intended by bis rounda
bout way of insinuating against the
sani-r of my mind to reflect on my
verasity I would say tlrt be is be
yond my contempt. But ou the
other hand if be only intended a lit
tie political pleasantry in his suggest
ions, then ail rigut. And I would
say to the Hon. gentleman that it is
much better to have a large volume
of brain for three scorn years and ten,
even ifrfier that time it was partial¬
ly demented, or even gone astray
or stolen than have only a
for that long period of time and
ne\er be able lo understand the plain
est principles of political economy
and have to be led about by such
men as Cleveland and Colquitt at
their will. You can se.-, Mr. Editor
in the H. A A. of yesterday, that I
presented the editor with a stalk of
cotton with a half dozen or porfi
squares on it I reckon a good
reform witness will satisfy the Hon.
gentleman. And that same corn is
now 6 feet 3 inches high and cotton
10 inches high. Respectfully,
Ben Leicu.

The Chcvlnt Gum Habit.
Orders from manufacturers and drug¬
gists have gone out in greater quantity
than ever this year for "pure spruce
gum.” The Maine forests is where the
best gum is procured, and the lumber¬
men can reap quite a little harvest if
thev can manage to get gum enough to
fill these very liberal offers. Gum
chewing has become so fashionable that
there is an unusual demand for it and it
is one that promises to last. Reasons for
this are that, gum chew era believe that
the chewing of the gtnn aids digestion and
also whitens the teeth. The first reason
sets elderly gentlemen to chewing it, and
the latter makes the practice popular
with women. One firm has made a for¬
tune by "is making a candied chewing gum,
which sold by druggists, tobacconist*,
confectionists and at elevated railroads.
The chewing gum habit has got away
beyond the school girl, and its there's no
telling where it will «top at present
rate of progress.—Chicago Herald.
New Paper Articles.
A number of new combinations in pa¬
per are being made. One of the latest ia
a paper haring a "middle'’ of tin waxed, or gold
foil. The upper layer is made of
and the under surface of common paper.
This is intended for a variety of uses.
A new sheathing paper is composed of
two or more layers cemented together by
asphalt, or some waterprof or disinfecting
material. I don’t think that the asphalt
idea is altogether new. interior layer
A new cardboard is an
or middle of paper made from an admix¬
ture of pulp and animal hair. This is in¬
tended to be an improvement ou every
kind of paper in which threads or yarns
have been introduced.—Paper Trade
Journal.

A Novel Advertisement.
A novelty in the advertising line is the
“electric window tapper,” for the pur¬
pose of attracting the attention of passers
by to the wares exposed for sale. It
consists of a figure, hand painted on
zinc, eighteen inches high, which knocks
on the window with its hand. It is sus¬
pended by wires connected with batterie*
that can be placed in the cellar or any
other convenient place. The will, batteries tot
which go with the tapper nin
six months, and the material for renew-
ing them can be had at any drug store
for a trifle.—New York Press.
