The writer of this notice extends his sympathies to the bereaved; husband and parents. Jones Bush. CABTORIA. B*ri the The Kind You Have Always Boujld TT Georgia’s Orphans Homes. Bethesda Orphanage, near Sav annah, is more than 160 years old, having been founded by Rev. George Whitfield, the companion of the Wesleys. It has had a great history, furnishing a govern or, and sheltering the noble mother of Bill Arp. The care of the orphans in Georgia beautifully illustrates the motto on the early colonial seal, “non sihi”, sed alus,” —not for ourselves, hut for others. This brotherly spirit is such that at Decatur, Atlanta, Hapeville, Washington, Macon or Augus ta every orphm can find a sweet home. Orphan means abso lute moral or physical destitution, whether the parents are dead or not. A poor cripple found her way to the Decatur home recently, and they are already at work straight,- ening her limbs and eyes. She has been almost totally paralized from her waist to her feet for two years, unable either to walk, stand or move about, and* both her par ents an'(haul. They will he able Ito put her on crutches after the National Surgical Institute have ! generously st raightoned her limbs. There are eight of these cripples there. The orphans, waifs, babies and morally destitute children in these I institutions beg their friends to , liberally support these noble ; home* which are dependent on these voluntary gifts. Everyone lean give the value of one days work. Orphans Home Work-Day | will lie observed Sat urday Sep.27. NEED MORE HELP.

Such trouble call forpronint use of Dr. King’s New Life Pills. They are gentle, thorough and guaranteed to cure. 25c at W. A. Wright’s drug store. The new life that seems to to be infused in the University of Georgia is noticed particularly in the announcement of the School of Agriculture of that in stitution. Notice is given that in addition to the regular four years ! course, a short winter course of two months is held each year, in tended primarily forstudents who ! cannot leave their farms for a longer period of time: and begin :mg with next session an entirely new one year course will bo offer ed in this school. This course would seem to he admirably adapt ed to meet the wants of young men in every class. In line with tins work it is noticed also that excellent hoard is provided in the hoarding hall of the University at a etist of SB.OO. Board of as high quality is not provided, we believe, at any institution at so low a figure. Every etVort seems to be made by the administration to make the cost of living as lit tle ns possible; and, as no tuition fees are charged, the cost of a course at the state University is now as cheap as could reasanably , be expected.

Boston has a mountain climbing club, the Appalachian, winch num- I bers about 1,200 members. This club exists not only for the love of climbing and adventure, although •its members have made many nota ble climbs, but it is concerned with Other and more serious aims. In the construction of roads and trails and other work of development of mountain playgrounds it has taken a leading part, it has mapped un known mountain regions. In the movement for the preservation ol our forests, says Everybody s Maga zine, it has aided greatly, and in the development of art in landscape photography it has had great influ ence. In Denver is the Rocky Mountain club, in San Francisco the Sierra club, of which John Muir, the great nature lover, is the president, and in the northwest are the Mazamas, with headquarters at Portland. This club has a very select membership, since it enforces the condition that a candidate shall have climbed a snow clad mountain at least 10,000 feet in height. A Snubbed Cub Reporter. Professor Richard Lynch Gar ner’s return from Africa, where he has been for the third time to study the language and habits of the mon key tribes, calls to mind a little in cident in which he unknowingly fig ured. The professor had just re turned from a previous trip and upon reaching the "United States went at once to Chicago, where he is connected with the Chicago uni versity. The daily papers were anx ious to get interviews with him in regard to his study of the language of monkeys. The city editor of the Chicago News sent a young reporter on the assignment and had forgot ten about him in the work of the day when the enthusiastic young man rushed into the office and ex claimed : “Well, I’ve seen Garner, the man who says he can understand mon keys.” * “Then,” replied the editor, “I suppose you had no difficulty in making yourself understood.” Up Against It. Stanley, the ollice boy, made his appearance in the art department the other day wearing a Christian Endeavor button in the lapel of his coat. “I’m glad to see you have decided to lend a moral and upright life in the future,” remarked the cartoon ist, fixing his gaze on the emblem. “Aw, hat ’em out!” replied Stan ley. “Dis is collateral fer a loan. See? An* I’in up against it at dat. 1 lends a feller 80 cents, an’ I says, ‘Gimme somethin’ fer security.’ Well, he flashes dis here pin on me, an’, like an easy mark, 1 takes it. Dere ain’t no moral an’ upright life about dis here deal.” “Well, the button is worth 80 cents, isn’t it?” asked the cartoon ist. “Yaw,” replied Stanley in dis gust. “1 t’ought it was when I took it, hut I found out since youse kin buy ’em fer a quarter.” —Philadel- phia Record. Her Shrimp Salad. Avery young and very inexperi enced matron, a well known society woman of New York, recently un dertook to assume the entire man agement, even to the smallest de tail, of her household affairs, and her directions to the servants are conveyed to them in writing. A few days ago, wishing to have some dainty dish for luncheon, she thought a nice shrimp salad would be the thing and accordingly wrote her instructions to the cook to pre pare the salad and for the purpose to order from the marketman “one small shrimp.” The story leaked out, and it will he many days before she will be able to look into the eyes of any of her friends without seeing the small shrimp twinkling therein.—New York Times. A Bluff Sign. “Watchman In This Building.” This is the now sign that is ap pearing on uptown apartment houses in New York as a warning to tramps, beggars and peddlers. “It's a great scheme,” said a real estate man. “Warnings to keep out are of no value, and watchmen are expensive, but the signs cost only a trifle, and they work pretty well, just as ‘Beware of the Dog’ signs in the country. “This • bluff is better than a watchman, because you don’t have to keep an eye on it, and you do have to keep both eyes on the aver age watchman.” —New York Times. Witty Zangwill. Israel Zangwill has been one of the sprightliest witnesses in the Truth libel case in London. Asked whether his paper, Ariel, was still in existence, he replied: ‘‘No. It was too good to live. 1 can’t, how ever, say that it is dead, for its jokes still appear.” SHORT NOTICE. Anthony Brady, the capitalist, a personage now of unusual interest to Utica from the fact that he lias been instrumental in consolidating the two lighting companies, has many men in his service. One of them is a high priced gas expert, a voung man whom he intrusts with nianv important missions. Once Mr. Brady left instructions for this young man to go to Japan on a cer tain mission. “And,” concluded Mr. Brady, “as it will be a long and hard trip, have him take his wife with him.” After the expert had received his instructions he sought out Mr. Bra dy. “I understand,” he said, “I am to go to Japan.” “Yes.” “And take mv wife with me?” I “Yes.” “Well, this is pretty short notice to get ready to take a wife on such a trip,” said the young man. “Why?” asked Mr. Brady. “Because,” replied the employee, “I haven’t any wife.” So Mr. Brady’s agent went to Ja pan alone. —Utica Observer. Freak Whiskers. Judson Clayton, proprietor of the Lady Washington inn at Hunting ton Valley, Pa., has a small marble statue of General George Washing ton on the lawn adjoining his house that requires constant barbering to keep it from raising a beard and mustache. Periodically a growth of moss makes its appearance on the upper lip, chin and cheeks of the stone figure, and if left untouched for any length of time it develops into a close cropped beard and mus tache, giving to the image of the Father of His Country an extremely dandified appearance. If the moss is not interfered with, it will grow : to a point resembling the approved cut that barbers give to the beards of men of fashion. Every few months the action of the weather causes the face of the marble statue to become coated with the velvety moss, and a shave is in order. The freak whiskers have made the stat ue quite a curiosity in the vicinity. Cannibal Plants. Some interesting particulars ap pear in Chambers’ Journal concern ing cannibal plants and flowers and especially the species recently dis covered by Dunstan on the shores of Lake Nicaragua. As this nat uralist was walking with his dog he was attracted by its cries of pain and terror and, hastening to the rescue, found the animal held bv three black sticky bands, which had chafed the skin to bleeding. These bands were the brandies of a newly found carnivorous plant, which has been named by Dunstan the land octopus. The branches are de scribed as being flexible, polished black, without leaves, secreting a viscid fluid and furnished with a great number of suckers by which they attach themselves to their vic tims. This uncanny product of the vegetable kingdom is known to the natives as “the devil’s noose.” A Cinematograph Puzzle. In cinematograph pictures of rac ing motor cars the wheels at cer tain points have been shown turn ing backward. To explain this sin gular effect M. Lumiere states that when anew film is exposed at the moment when each spoke in turn reaches a given point the wheel will appear stationary, the successive views being exactly alike. But if the films are traveling quicker than the spokes each spoke is photo graphed before it reaches the posi tion of exposure of the spoke in front of it, giving the wheel the ap pearance of revolving backward. A Magnetic Cannon. The electrical magnetic cannon invented by a Norwegian professor has recently been given severe tests at Christiania. The gun works mag netically, the shell being drawn out of the bore and not impelled, as by gunpowder. The professor claims that by the use of magnetism as mo tive power a thousand pound shell can be given greater range than by any of the established methods. The firing of the gun causes neither smoke nor sound.—Boston Journal. A Pingpong Blunder. “I guess tha f New York man who dropped dead while playing ping pong was a good deal xo blame him self)’ “What makes you think so?” “Why, ns near as l can make out, he was trying to return a ball by a short arm quick counter with the right forearm reversed for a back ward back handed stroke. Wouldn’t that jar your arteries?’’—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Fatted Goose Livers. Consul Tourgee protests from Bordeaux against calling the en larged goose liver from which foie do gras is made “diseased.” A fatted goose liver, he says, is no more dis eased than the meat of an overfed hog.
