However the town steadily grows place, will be sold for taxes, lot of

ces being such that it conuot
help iUelf, yet by no means in
proportion to its advantages. In
its upward flight it carries the
dead weight of apathy and indif
ference of its citizens, and of
course its progress is in ;i great
measure retarded. Citizens of
Waycross, wake up to a higher
sense of your duty, finish the
artesian well already started,
build a new and hansomc school
house, which will be an honor
to your town, aid every enter
prise that will advance its inter
ests, dont hide its light under
the bushell of indifference.
Citizens arouse! Let your light
shine that it may be seen by
home hunters throughout the
land. If your pride will not
move you, we appeal to your av
arice; it will pay to be enterpris
ing; show a little of the spirit of
some of cur sister towns, if you
do, the sun of prosperity will
shine on you and fortune will
kiss you on the cheek, and hard
times will flee from vour doors.

One evening last week w«
were startled to hear that one of
Capt. E. H. Crawley’s little
children had fallen into a boil

dying condition. So severe was
the scalding that the attending
physician found it difficult to
find enough skin on the little

phine, that its pains and misery
might be somewhat allayed. The
child, unnoticed by its nurse, it
appears, had hobbled out to
where the family washing was
being done, and had fallen into
the boiling water with the sad
result mentioned. Death reliev
