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. Advice to Mothers. M o.

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.

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.
