What’s the Answer?
What gives us our sense of loathing
for the garden toad, demurely useful
little neighbor that he has proved him
self, while his second cousin, the frog,
who seems to do nothing but play the
dandy and the braggart. Is uniformly
treated as a good fellow? If the toad
gulped and croaked all night long and
made his home in slimy pools instead
of in the melou patch, would they re¬
verse their present order in our es¬
teem? -Atlantic.
New Dishes.
What new dishes have you bad since
you have had your new French cook?”
asked Mrs Squire of a friend whom
she met one morning.
"Oh, a whole new dinner set,” replied
the other, "and several pieces of cut
glass, and she’s only been with us
about a week.”- Harper’s Magazine.
Not Impressed.
“I know no-north, no south, no east,
no west.” declared the impassioned
orator.
“You are also just as badly mixed in
several other respects," commented an
o'd farmer in the audience.—Pitts

MR. J. M. NEELY
CROSSES DIVIDE
Mr. John M. Neely died in Cov
Ugton on Thursday morning, No¬
vember 25-th. He was born in New
ten county April 18th, 1847, and lived
to the age of 66 years.
Mr. Neely had been a resident of
t’ is county all his life and had been
identified with the interest and up
buildng of its welfare for a number
of years. He was a Confederate
veteran and enlisted from this coun¬
ty in Company I, 4th Georgia regi¬
ment, and served as a solider for
two and one half years.
Mr. Neely was ya*-d boss for the
ccunty chaingang !<■»• u ore than fif
i t n y <vrs and made .-in effici-nt of¬
ficer. He had been in this position
since the establishment of the con¬
vict camp in this county.
Probably no man was better known
and more universally liked in Newton
county than was John Neely. He
made friends by his acquaintances,
and he proved hie friendship by his
life—and truly he lived a life that
when the end came he had no fear
ot the future.
The funeral services were conduc¬
ted at grax-e by Rev. E. P. Hammond
and his remains were interred In
tue burying ground at Old Shiloh
church near Almon, and witnessed by
one of the largest concourse of
friends ever seen in that section of
the county.
Mr. Neely is survived by one son,
Mr. Roy O. Neely of this city, and
two brothers of this county, Messrs.
S. ,and H. J. Neely, and txvo
brothers and one sister in Texas,
Messrs. R. O. Neely, of Hartley coun¬
ty; A. A. Neely, of Dallas, and Mrs.
G. B. Nixon, of Ballinger.
The sympathy of the entire county
is extended these bereaved ones in
this sad huor.
