Weakness of itself is not a disease,
and vet, it is an ailment that is most
distressing. We admire strength but
we pity weakness. Weakness is the
effect of disease. It is the last weap
on of the grim monster before lie lavs
his victim in the grave. Weakness,
like pain, is a warning that the system
is out of order, that the machinery of
.life is b-in" tampered with and does
not run smoothly. Weakness means
the blood is impoverished, the diges
.ton is poor, the appetite is gone, the
svft n; i; clogged and the various func
tions of the body are disored. Nature
is calling ‘or aid. Obey the call. As

11 a. m.
An organization was effected by

T. J. Bledsoe, chaplain, and Prof. J.
T. Wilder, was selected by the county
commissioner as the expert which the

to day with prayer by chaplain, after
which the Syllabus prescribed by the
State School Commissioner was then
taken up and’discussed. As it was the
first meeting of the Institute, matters
did not of course, progress so smoothly
as they doubtless will at subsequent
sessions, when the members have been
educated up to a proper appreciation
and understanding of the work. Ev
erything progressed harmoniously un
til the close, when the following reso
lutions were passed :
“Whereas, our relations with Prof.

The MeDOnou&li Institute.
(’lie Commencement of the McDon
ough Collegiate Institute began ou
Sunday 19 iust., with a sermon by Rev.
.1 E. liosser, which was in his usual
able, thoughtful and thorough style.
His subject was '‘compensations,” or
‘•whatsoever a man sows, that also
shall he reap.” lie traced the doctrine
through all the concerns of this life, as
well as to the concerns of eterniny,
showing that whether a man intends it
or not, hie every act will exert an in
fluence uticoucinusly to himself whose
effects may pot be seen until the dual
great day of accounts when it will ro
suit perhaps in the salvation of one and
the condemnation of another. Of
course, the obvious moral was deduced
that we should keep a constant watch
over our lightest thoughts, acts and
words, us we know not what influence
they may have for good or evil over
those with whom we assoicate.
The exercises of the school, condhct
ed by Mr. S. W. Dußose, principal,
and Miss Tipporah Harrell assistant,
began at 3:30 on Monday evening, but
on account of the threatening nature of
the weather the audieoce was not as
iarge as was expected. The following

Children’** Day at County Line.
Last Sunday the 19th inst., was a
long day to be remembered by the
people who were present at County
Line church, jt was set apart as
Children’s Day, and Rev. Mr. Shaw,
formorly of Atlanta, presided over the
meeting, lo say that he presided
over a public gathering with marked
dignity and fairness oulg hylf- express
es it.
The crowd was large and enthusias
tic, and the Sunday School work re
ceived au impetus which will be re
membered for years to come.
At eleven o’clock a. m,, Rev. Mr-
Shaw preached one of the most elo
quent sermons, that perhaps wa s
ever delivered at County Line, to a
very attentive congregation.
After the sermon, an intermission ol
about one hour and a half was had for
refreshments, which were served by the
hospitable ladies of Couuty Line and
vicinity. Everybody present did am
ple justice to the occasion, and after
all had participated freely of this grand
aud magnificent spread, there was
enough left to Itave supplied amply as
many more.
When the hour arrived for the af
ternoon services, the people re-assem
bled in the church, which had been dec
orated in the most fantastic style. The
grand and brilliant display of the most
beautiful garlands of lovely flowers,
festooned the walls. To say the least
of it, it was elaborated peerless, aud
complete in adornment, and reflected
much credit upon the young ladies of
County Line church, who so artistical
ly arranged it.
The evening exercises were opened
by sining ; then prayer by the pastor,
Rev. Mr. Hubbard, which was followed
by singing and responsive reading
from the class. Misses Allie Belle
Jaycotte, of Atlanta, Minnie Nash, and
others whose' names we failed to learn,
presided well at the organ.
The responsive Hervioo was inter
spersed with beautiful songs suited to
the occusiou ; alternately, and at in
tervals, recital iau were given as fol
lows :
Children’s Day by Miss Bertha Nash,
The Flowers’ Sunday, by Mias Mag
gie Hill.

nie Nash.
After all the recitations bad been ren
dered, a beautiful blackboard illustra
tion was given by Mr. Shaw, represent
ing Christ as our “Guiding Star.” It
was very instructive to all, both old
and young, and riveted deep impressions
upon the minds of the young, never to
be iorgotteu. The exercises were
soou closed, after this, aud, withal it
was one of the most enjoyable occas
ions that ever took place at County
Line. It was a meeting long to be re
tnetubered by all who were present. It
was a great meeting—great in its
pirit, great in the young people who
took part in.it, and all who were pres
ent ; great tn the character of the mi n
anil women who made if, aud great
in its posibilities for good.
