Defends the Kiss. An indignant Kentucky editor who resents the recent publication in an eastern paper of the state ment, “We don’t believe that kisses from the lips of a pretty girl taste as good now-a-days as they did twenty years ago,” has filed the following brief for Kiss of Today et al., defendants in the case: “Well, by the dimples on Cup id’s anatomy, if that isn’t rank treason and sacrilege to our most cherished institution, we’ll eat the office towel! Taste as good as they did twenty years ago! Why, there never was a time from the instant upon which Adam and Eve collaborated on the pristine kiss when one didn’t taste good. The silvery stars sang for joy in the silent heavens until the golden moment when the kiss was born. The rose and the violet were nox ious weeds and nectar was as flat as circus lemonade until the world’s first lovers felt the soul stirring thrill of that bubble bliss —the kiss. “Taste as good as they did twen ty years ago! Oh, benighted brother, they taste as good now r as they did when Mordecia kissed Esther, when Leander kissed He ro, when Antony kissed Cleopa tra, when Aucassin kissed Nico lette, w r hen Romeo kissed Juliet, when Dante kissed Beatrice, when John Alden kissed Priscilla, when Herman kissed Dorothea — just as good, you sour souled sin ner, as they did on that night of nights a score of years ago when you and she were darlings of the gods and she held up to you those quivering tosebuds to let you sip the honey they contained. “Does a kiss taste as good! Does it? You know it!” Card of Thanks. We wish to express our thanks to our many friends for their kindness during the illness and death of our dear father and grandfather. J. E. Ray and Family, Miss Lola Browning. AN IDEAL- We have in mind to snake the Bank of Stockbridge, relatively speaking, the safest Bank in the State of Georgia, there ar • those to rise up each day to say we cannot put into effect some of the drastic corrective innovations we have in mind without alienating some of our present business, but experience teaches us otherwise. The abuses, due to the overwhelming desire for business, must be overcome, and to this task we have set ourselves with grim determina tion Some of these problems are : (t) To see tint no single name paper comes into the bank unless secured or well rated (2) To prevent the Bank’s money being used as capital for another’s business. (3) To see to it that the officers and directors do not borrow excessively the bank’s money. (4) To make no unusually large loans no matter how attractive. (5) To prevent overdrafts.

Fresh air, food, rest—these three combat tuberculosis? The U. S. Public Health Service has reduced typhoid fever 80 per cent in some communities? Overeating, constipation, lack of exercise, foul air, eye strain, may produce headache? Polluted drinking water causes many deaths? An efficient health officer is a good community investment? Bad teeth handicap children? Insufficient sleep endangers health? She Told Her Neighbor. “I told a neighbor whose very young child had croup about Fo ley’s Honey and Tar,” writes Mrs. Qedkamp, 2404 Herman St., Cov ington, Ky. “She thought that the child surety would die it was so bad. When she gave it a cou ple doses of Foley’s Honey and Tar she was so pleased with tlie change she did not know what to say.” This old reliable cough syrup immediately helps coughs, colds, croup and whooping cough. Just as go d for old as it is for young folks. The McDonough Drug Co. SPEER, The GRADUATE Fits Glass for all Errors of Re fraction. Makes a Specialty of Fits U Nose Glass.

McDonough, Ga, “De Circus Am Here.” One hot July afternoon Rastus Johnsing, a gentleman of color, and his family of nine, who de pended almost entirely on the town for their support, started away from home all togged out in their best, each carrying a supply of eatables. One of their bei e faetors happened to meet them on the road. “Well, Uncle Rastus, where are you going with all your family so dressed up?” he asked. “Well, boss," said Rastus, “doan’ you know de circus am come to town?” “Yes; but I can’t afford to take all my family.” “Well, I’ll tel! yer, boss, it’s jes dis er way wid us. We done soi’ de heatin’ stove ’cause de winter am fur off but de circus am here!” Troubled at Night.
