Verses 20-21— Suppose the per¬ sons mentioned in these wonderful verses, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses and Raliab, had been lacking faith in God, in these critical moments of their lives, what would have been the difference in the results? Does faith in God always make the present happy, and picture in glowing colors the future? Verses 32-40—Have men disting¬ uished for their faith always been noted for their goodness? This is a thrilling account of the exploits of the man of faith; give me an account of the achievements of men noted tor their lack of faith. Lesson for Sunday, June 20th, 1909.—-Review; ‘Matrimonial Exchange” Was Great. The “Matrimonial Exchange” pre¬ sented at the opera house last 1 hurs <1 ay night by the Jersey entertainers was ono of the best home [talent pro¬ ductions that has^ ever appeared on our stage. This was as clever little play as some of the best operas that come to our town and does a credit to the Jersey amatures. It was in¬ teresting from start to finish there being much interest shown by our people and ntore especially when the “Matrimonial Exchange” was organ¬ ized every old maid and bachelor who had drudged down in the rain to take dots, was as still as a mouse, wond< i - ing if such could be true. W e were glad to have this clever troupe with us and will welcome them the. next time they come. THE COVINGTON NEWS M MILLIONS BEING SPENT FOR WATER One Corporation in Georgia Or¬ ganizes With Three Million Capital for Water Power. The Georgia and Alabama Indus¬ trial Index, published at Columbus, Ga., says in its regular weekly issue: “Perhaps the most prominent fea¬ ture of the industrial news for the past week in Georgia and Alabama was the formation of several large companies to develop water-powers in different sections of the two states. At Elberton Ga., a powei company was chartered with $3,000,000 capital stock, and Abbeville, Ala., and Geneva, Ala., both report new $500. 000 corporations which purpose to develop water-power and transmit it in the form of electricity to various cities and towns in that section for industrial use. Surveys have just been made of water-powers on the Allapaha river near Valdosta, Ga., and it is stated that their develop¬ ment is practically assured. The water-power of the Towaliga river will be still further developed for the use of Griffin, Ga., industries, the re¬ cent filing of a $100,000 mortgage be¬ ing an incident in the process of pro¬ curing the desired capital. “Application was filed for a Charter for a new railroad, to be built west¬ ward from Moultrie, Ga., for a distance of 40 miles, the $100,000 of capital stock in the new corporation being taken by business men of that section of Georgia. Contract for grading the new Rome & Northern Railroad, chartered last week, has al¬ ready been awarded, and the Michigan capitalists who are building the road have concluded negotiations for the purchase of a $150,000 furnace near Rome, Ga. “A dozen new corporations are re¬ ported for the week, with capital stock of $(1,169,000. Among the new companies is one at Eiliiay, Ga., or¬ ganized for mining and real estate purposes, with capital stock of $2,000, 000 .’ An Acceptable Present. President G. C. Adams, of the Fifth District Agricultural school, is feel¬ ing good over the receipt by the school of a fine threshing machine, the gift of Mr. Ed Adams,- of Mans¬ field, one of Newton’s most prominent citizens.—Walton Tribune. Fine Yield of Tomatoes. Mr. J. F. McCord, one of the city’s well known and hustling citizens, came in The News office one day last week and presented us with as fine a can of tomatoes as we have had in quite a while. These tomatoes were cooked, prepared and put in cans by Mr. McCord at his home on Washing¬ ton street. Last year Mr. McCord raised on 144 vines about 175 cans, besides selling something over $15.00 worth of picked tomatoes. Mr. McCord is making preparations this year to can a large amount of tomatoes and has invented a unique canner for this purpose. These tomatoes are put up in as good shape as any shipped to this city from factories. They are put up in quart and pint cans, and are ready for ta¬ ble use when opened. Mr. McCord is demonstrating what every gardner or man with a small piece of land can do if he only tries. Off of these 175 vines Mr. McCord has made something over thirty-five dollars. AN INNOCENT VICTIM. Swinburne and the Grouchy Head Master of Eton. Once when Algernon Charles Swin¬ burne was traveling back with his fa¬ ther from school at the end of one of the terms they entered a carriage in which the then head master of Eton, who was buried in the Times, was seated. “Isn’t that Dr. -?” the admiral whispered to his son. “I believe it is,” stammered youug Swinburne reluc¬ tantly. After a rebuke at the appar¬ ently careless answer the admiral “accosted the awful presence” with “Dr. -, I believe, sir?” The doctor was plainly annoyed at being disturb¬ ed by a stranger. “Well, sir,” pursued the admiral, “my boy here has just finished his first term at Eton, and I should very much like to know what account you can give of him.” As a matter of fact, the doctor had not set eyes on young Swinburne before. “En¬ raged. however. I suppose,” Swinburne afterward related, “at my father’s rather unconventional interruption, which he had no doubt considered a slight on his dignity, he glanced down at me with a scarlet face and said de¬ liberately, ‘Your boy. sir—your boy is one of the very worst in the school,’ and then intrenched himself once more behind the Times.” At Paddington there was a storm. In rain young Swinburne protested that the doctor had said what he had out of pure vexation, but the father declared that he would take the word of the head master, and Swinburne was deprived of all pleasures and privileges for the duration of the holi A Boy's Definition. A bright schoolboy defined as “something to a sausage pan” then brought Webster’s Unabridged bis skeptical teacher with bis pointing triumphantly to the "serving to assuage pain” Futures. “There goes a man who has made a great deal of money dealing in tures.” “A wheat speculator?” “No; a fortune American. Quite a Change. “Percy Is getting used to speaking, isn’t he?” “Oh, yes. I remember when could hardly get him to stand up, now you can hardly get him to down.” Learn benevolence. It is the cure of a morbid temper. To be you must forget yourself.—Bulwer. Protect Your Home WITH A CYGLONE POLICY \ Covers Homes, Schools ► r Churches and Businss Houses. The Cost is Very Low. Only 25 Cents a Hundred. H. T. NIISON, Suspension Bridges. There is no doubt that the first idea of a suspension bridge was suggested to primitive man by the interlacing of tree branches and parasitical plants across rivers. Probably monkeys used them before men did. In very moun¬ tainous countries, such as Tibet and Teru, they have apparently been used since the dawn of history, possibly earlier. Who Taught Her Caution? Isabel, aged four, was talking to an imaginary friend over the telephone, when her mother heard her say: “Wait a minute, Roeksy. My brother is right here listening to all you say, and my mother is in the room too. Don’t tell me about it now.”—Delineator. Careless. Visitor—So that’s Miss Overton. Don't you think she carries her age remarkably well? Artist—No, I don’t. She has dropped several years of it to my persona! knowledge. — Illustrated Bits.
