iCTAMDBIgJN jOHNsp^PuBOSE^Ii ATLANTA, GA. Stock deducing Sale Contemplated Changes on the interior of the Store Necessitates Stock Reducing. {Profits dfave SPeen Wiped ylwag. Within the next few weeks over one-half of the present store will be given over to workmen to remodel and pre pare for a removal of some departments to the new an nex now being built on Hunter street. This necessitates stock reducing, and we have decided to make this move ment one of the greatest opportunities ever afforded Georgia buyers for buying the various wares in our line at low prices. Former prices and first cost have not entered into the consideration of the new and inviting prices we now name. Large and ample stocks must be reduced to a mere nothing. That’s the one thought — the one necessity that has had any weight in the making of such absurdly low prices at this time. It’s impossible to mention every department in an advertisement of this character, but only to mention-a-few of the many things affected. Where we name one department there are two, where we name one item there are a dozen. This sale is now in effect, and should you desire to purchase anything in the tines of Carpets, Furniture or Dry Goods, it will richly pay you to write our mail order department and get further imformation and prices. We quote a few here: Carpet Department, . This department will offer the best values ever given to the trading public of Georgia. Not on one or two lines have we thrown out bar gains with the hopes of alluring you to buy something else, but anything you may select in this mammoth stock can surely be had with a large slice off the regular price. Carpets priced below includes the making, laying and lining with padded paper, and any one desiring us to hold same until the fall season can do so by paying for them now, at which time they will be made and insured against a loss by fire at our expense.. Tapestry Brussels that were 75c will be 50c Tapestry Brussels that were 85c will be 60c Tapestry Brussels that were 90c will be 65c Body Brussels that were SI.OO will be 75c Moquetsthat were SI.OO and sl.lO will be 75c Ingrains that were 65c will be 50c Ingrains that were 75c will be 60c Drapery Department, Never since Draperies have been sold do* we believe such Draperies were sold at such prices. You can now drape any window or nook in your home at an average of HALF PRICE. Every pair of Curtains in the house has been handled within the past few days and marked at prices that will surprise you. Those found to be sold down to one, two, three pairs have been actually reduced so much we would almost hesi tate to teil the price for fear you might suspect something wrong with them. Be assured of this, though, that no unworthy, cheap Draperies have been bought to help strengthen this sale—every pair mentioned is our regular high-grade stock. These prices mean just what this sale is intended for— to reduce stock prior to moving in the new quarters.

Since so much sterling silver and plate enters into some part of the ta ble cutlery, it is necessary that one should keep in mind the best methods of treating it. A perfectly safe sub stance for cleaning this metal will al ways be found in French whiting. For all ordinary purposes, such whit ing wet with water is all that is nec essary, but if the silver is very much discolored, it should be wet with al cohol. This will give a brilliant pol ish. It is important that the materi als used to polish silver should be perfectly free from any gritty sub stance. The whiting should be sifted through a hair-sieve or a piece of muslin, to insure against anything that might scratch the plate. Silver, as well as steel, must be washed per fectly clean before being rubbed with the polish ng material. A soft silver brush will be required for the chased “repouse” work, which is found on nearly all the silver-handled knives.— Ladies Home Journal. Take good care of the hair of the head and when it begins to loosen and fall nil or turn gray apply Hall’s Hair lienewer, and the remit will be pleasing. The Voice In Hattie. With the modern rapid-firing guns there's little firing by men in mass exeept when the company “rallies” to repel an attack. Then a circle or semiciicle is formed around the offi cers and bullets are sent in every direction as fast as they can travel. In the “extended order” or the skirm ish line it is possible for a man to “hear himselt think,” but with a line extending rods away to the right and left, and with a strong wind blowing to say nothing of the musketry, the officer’s voice cannot be equal to the emergency. So he resorts to signals —visual, with his sword, when smoke and landscape will allow; otherwise with the bugle, or a hoarse whistle in the hilt of his sword. Properly drill ed soldiers of 1898 readily interpret the signals. Those with the sword are simple; those by the bugle or whistle are combinations of long and short blasts, as for example, one long one, “Halt!” Two long ones, “For ward !” Two short ones and one long one. “To the rear !” Two long ones and two short ones, “Cease firing!” The non-commissioned officers along the line, hearing these signals, repeat the 'Command to the men. Aboard ship there is also great economy of vocal power. If the steel sides of the vessel are not being pounded by shot and shell the offi cers can make themselves heard be tween shots, but their words are few. As for the men, the experience of an observer aboad one >of our vessels at the destruction of Cervera’s fleet is to the point. He said he expected to hear the men nash to quarters with a yell and then cheer as they saw the enemy’s discomfiture. On the con-i trary, the only sound was the boom 1 of the guns, the men going on with 1 their work like silent machines. Yet the human voice has its value. Who shall say that it is any less than those from metal throats? It comes when there is a Ml in the firing, when bayonets are fixed, when men nerve themselves and start forward at a run over the short but shot-swept space between them and the enemy. Then the voice will make itself heard—no rules or regulations ever could pre vent it if they tried. Seemingly, it is the shouts that carries the men on ward, upward, over the breastworks. “I think DeWitt’s Witch lla/.cl Salve is the finest preparation on the market for piles.” So writes John C. Dunn, of Wheeling, YV. Va. Try it and you will think the same. It also cures eczema and all skin diseases. Da. YV. A. WnioiiT. In the Early Morning. In the early morning, as soon as you awake to consciousness, remem her that ypu are in the very presence chamber of God, who has been watch ing beside you through the long, dark hours; look up into His face and thank Him. Consecrate to Him those first few moments befoie you leave your couch. Look on toward the coming day, through the golden haze of the light that streams from the angel of His presence. You can forecast very largely what your difficulties are likely to be, the quarters from which you may be attacked, the burdens that may need carrying. Take care not to view any of these apart from God. Be sure that he will be between you and them, as the ship is between the traveler and the ocean, be it fair or stormy.—Rev. F. B. Meyer.

In stead of finding fault with women in general and their wives in particular, each one obeyed the wise man’s ad vice, and “gave honor unto his wife.” “I tell you what it is,” said one of the men, “they may say what they please about the uselessness of mod ern women, but my wife has done her share in securing our success in life. Everybody knows that her family was aristocratic, exclusive, and all that, and when I married her she had nev er done a day’s work in her life; but when W. & Cos. failed, and I had to commence at the foot of the hill again, she discharged all the servants and chose a neat little cottage and did her own house-keeping until I* was better off again.” • “And my wife,” said another, “was an only daughter, caressed and petted to death; and everydiody said, ‘Well, if he will marry a doll like that, he will make the mistake of hi; life’; but when I came home the first year of our marriage siek with fever, she nursed me back to health, and 1 nev er knew her to murmur because I thought we couldn't afford any better style or more luxuries.” “Well, gentlemen,” chimed in a third, “I married a smart, healthy, pretty girl, but she was a regular blue-stocking. She adored Tenny son, doted on Byron, read Emerson, and named the first baby Ralph Wal do and the second Maud; but I tell you what it is,” and the speaker’s eyes grew suspiciously moist, “when we laid little Maud in her little bed at Auburn, my poor wife bad no re memibrances of neglect or stinted motherly care, and the iittle dresses that still lie in the locked drawer were all made by her own hands.”— Journal of Commerce.

Never gamble. Of all the vices that enthrall men this is the worst, the strongest and most idsidiou*. Outside the immorality of it, it is the poorest business and poorest fun. No man is sate that plays at all. It is easier never to play. I never knew a man, a gentleman, or a man of business who did not regret the time and money wasted at it. A man who plays poker is uufit for any other business on earth. Never drink. I love liquor, and love fellowship involved in drinking. My safety has been that I never drank at all. It is much better not to drink at all than to drink a little. If 1 had to attribute what I have done in life to any one thing, I should attribute it to the fact that I am a teetotaler. As sure as you are born it is the best and safest way. If you never drink and never gam ble and marry early, there is no limit to the useful and distinguished life you may live. You may be the pride of your father's heart and the joy of your mother’s. I don’t know if tli’ere is any happiness on earfh worth hav ing outside ot the happiness of knowing that you have done your duty and tried to do good. You try to build up. There are always plenty of others who will do the tearing down that is necessary. You try to live in the sunshine. Men who stay in the shade always get mildewed. Fitzhugli Lee’s Mother. Blind and almost helpless as a baby the mother of Gen. Fitzhugh Lee lives with her son Daniel near Fred ericksburg, Va. Though nearly 90 years old, she is bright and cheerful. Surrounded by decendants who fairly idolize her, she is rapidly nearing the dark river fearless and with child like confidence. In her youth she was known as “beautiful Nannie Mason, of the island.” At Arlington she first met Lieut. Sydney Smith Lee, U. S. N., a brother of Robert K. The meeting resulted in courtship and marriage, Gen. Joseph K. Johnson being one of the groomsmen. Por traits taken in those early days show the bride to have had a lovely piquant face, with rosy cheeks, brown eyes and clustering brown curls. When her son, Fitzhugh, became governor of Virginia she made her home with him in Richmond. She %vas keenly interested in the political issues of the day, but unfortunately a severe cold settled in her eyes. After intense suffering, borne with her usual forti tude, she submitted to painful opera tions which however, failed to give re lief, and she became totally blind.— Richmond Times.
