And he bore the mark, ol despair.
The rigged clothes hung down in strands,
On a frame that had once been stout;
He nervously rubbed his pale, lank hands
As the spectators moved about.
"This way, * er said,
‘'This freak .. prise,
A wan who wishes that he was dead
For he rtever would advertise.”
P. R. Bingham, of Newnan, was In “
the city yestecday.
Rev. E. D* Matthews on yestecday
waived an investigation of tbe tax
robbery in Pike and was put under
bond to appear before the April
term of Pike Superior Court.
The Vanderbilts are discarding the
the term ‘ Depot” in its application
to the passenger business, following
up the suggestion of the late Richard
Grant White, that a depot is a re¬
pository for freight. It is no longfer
the “Grand Central depot” at New
York, but “Graud Central station,”
Even the passenger switch engines
are labeled “G. C. S.” instead of “G.
C. D.” as formerly. In Griffln we
have gone even farther than this land
call it “going to the train.” The
miserable old shed down there is not
worthy the na me of either depot or
station.
^ X°rk World says: "Chry¬
santhemums are all the rage boaits just
now. The early Jersey ferry
are perfect pastures of these snowy
flowers, which are carried in huge
wh^> cros^;-tl^j^er. ery naan, woman and
child So
strong is the rivalry between the
gi-owers of the chrysanthemums that
the discussions on the merits of this
or that peculiar odor and quality
often rise to threatened violence.
Many of the stockbrokers who live
over in Jersey are amateurs at the
business of raising these flowers, and
necessarily each one swears that his
are the prettiest, and the handsomest
and the rarest. If the state authort
ties over the river were to impose a
tax on chrysanthemum growers,
they might abolish that on other
personal property or real estate.”
The following figure would look
well in the next "posture’' exer¬
cises we may have in Griffln: After a
few military evolutions, the lines are
halted with all the girls on one side
of the space four feet wide, and all
the boys on the other. The superin¬
tendent takes his place at the head
of the lines. “Attention!” heshouts
and every boy and girl straightens
up with the hand at the side. “About
face.” The lines face each other.
“Present arms.” Every one drawsa
long breath and puckers the lips.
“One”—a short step forward. “Two”
another short step and the arms
are crooked slightly preparatory to
embracing. “Three”—andthesimul-
taneous smacking of scores of kissing
lips resound like rattling of musket¬
ry in a skirmish lire.
A Woman’s .Discovery.
Bother wonderful discovery has been
made that the too by a lady in this county.
Disease fastened its clutches upon her and for
seven years she withstood its aevercsts tests,
but hevital organs worundermined and death
seemed imminent. For three months she
coughed incessantly and could not sleep. She

covery for boncumption and was she so much re

An Editor’s Dilemma.
The intelligent compositor very
often causes a great deal of embar¬
rassment by getting drunk just
about the time that he ought to be
sober. An event of this kind oc¬
curred in Texas the other day when
the editor of a patent-outside weekly,
owing to the unavoidable absence of
his printer, was forced to send out
his paper with the editorial and local
pages a barren waste of whiteness
with the exception of a short para¬
graph which the editor himself was
forced to set up aa follows: “We
have to apologize to the patrons of
the Meat-Axe this week for the non-
appearance in its columns of any
editorial or local matter. Mr. Bill
Griggs, our assistant in the mechani¬
cal deportment, has been on a toot
for the past four days, and is now in
jail, and we have no money to get
him out. Subscribers should bear in
mind that dollars and cents are the
lubricant which makes the wheels of
journalis n run smoothly, and remit
their postoffice money orders by the
next mail. All papers marked H. U-
in blue pencil signifies that we are
hard up and that the subscriber is in
arrears for his paper. Every man in
the county should take a personal
interest in the Meat-Axe and help us
to improve it, f>ut improvement can¬
not be made until we get Griggs out
of hock. As his fine is $10, he is likely
to stay where he is unless our read¬
ers send in what they owe.”

Washington, November 8.— [Spe¬
cial.]—“To discontinue an advertis-
ment,” soys John Wanamoker,
Postmaster General and Philadel;
plain's great mWbhant, “is like tok?
ing down your sign. If you want to
do business you must let the public
know it. Standing advertisements
are better and cheaper than reading
notices. They look more substan¬
tial aud business-like, and inspire
confidence.- I would as soon think
of doing business without clerks ns
without advertising.”
To be a successful advertiser a man
must live Up to what he advertises,
ana advertises persistently. This
the administration has failed to do.
It has ordered its advertisements
out and gone bacKon all it promised,
and hence i ts signal failure.

The Dear tilrfg ynote.
The New York girl has developed a
craze for couplets and mottoes, quo¬
tations and bits of poetry, and is
having them carved, engraved, etn-
broideried and etched on everything
she owns, some having even gone so
far as to have them set in needle^
work around the hems of their silk
petticoats. It is considered the lijjBt
