Old-fashioned
Paint
The good paint which
lasted so well a generation
and more ago, was simply
pure white lead and pure
linseed oil. Paint made of
these two ingredients alone
is just as good to-day as it
ever was.
The only point is to buy
a brand which you can
rely on.
Phoenix
Pure White Lead
(Made by the Old Dutch Process)
is guaranteed perfectly pure.
It has the reputation of
years behind it.

“«MY SOUL TO KEEP.”
This little story comes from Los
Angeles. A young girl drank ecabol
ic acid. mistaking it, in the dark. for
medicine. When they found her, there
was scribbled upon her pillow this
beautiful prayer of childhood:
“Now Ilay me down to sleep.
I pray the Lord my soul to keep.,
And if | die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take.—EDNA.
**Last words.”’
How many millions have uttered
that sweet and truthful prayer to the
Creator? Learned at mother’s knee,
in the innocence of babyhood, it has
followed countless men and women
into the storms and troubles of life,
and been a comfort and hope in dark
hours of temptation and sin and
death.
Standard Oil Magnates Invest Their
Cash and Employ Hundreds of
Thousands of Workmen.
One thing about Standard oil and
the rich men who are recognized as the
Standard oil group—they keep their
money busy, says W. G. Nicholas, the
W ashington correspondent of the Sa
vannah News. They have it invested
in railroads, industrials, mines, steam
boats and numberless other going en
terprises. They give employment to
hundreds of thousands of men and they
are actively developing the resources
of the country in every direction. |
The leaders of the Standard oil
group early acquired habits of indus
try, close attention to business, the
knack of applying improved methods
to the conduct of their affairs and a
callous inditference to the opinions or
the welfare of whoever might run
against them or their plans. In the
making of their money they have al
ways recognized the fact that they
must keep their capital employed. In
the language of old ‘‘Bill”” Devery.
they have from the very beginning
‘‘exercised’’ their monev. They have
never given it a rest, and consequent
ly there is not a rusty spot on one of
their dollars. The most discreditable
feature which can be mentioned in con
nection with Standard oil activity is
an uncontrollable weakness for ‘‘rig
ging’'’ the stock market and trickily
separating the gambling public from
its surplus.
The Standard oil millionaires did
not get into Wall street until they had
made great fortunes in petroleum and
its by-products. They knew nothing
about the stock market until late in
life, but once being bit by the bug of
speculation they never get enough of
the game. They find thorough enjoy
ment in putting up a job to milk the
market and are oftantimes satisfied
with stingy profits that would hardly
sngage the attention of some of the
combinations of the second class. The
excitement of the play fascinates them.
To ‘‘trim’’ the street is their diverse
ment. With them rigging the stock
market takes the place of the horse
show, grand opera, monkey dinners
and other novelties which amuse so
ciety. Their Wall street speculations
are never allowed to interfere with the
serious business of running railroads,
manufacturing plants or mines for
what there is in them in the way of
legitimate income.
CONVICTS ESCAPE ON ENGINE. |
Locomotive Sent Back to Camp With
out Guiding Hand.
Two negro convicts, Bob Henderson
and Pete Williams, made their escape
from the convict camp at Milltown last |
Wednesday by boarding an engine
that was standing just outside of guard
lines and opening the throttle. The
engine darted along the track toward
Naylor, and when four or five miles
away the fugitives stopped it and dis
mounted. |
The engine was then reversed and
sent back toward Milltown at the rate
of 40 miles per hour. A switch was
thrown open and the engine was stop
ped by a collision with some empty
cars and badly damaged, the tender
being demolished. A posse left imme
diately in pursuit of the fugitives, and
track dogs were secured from Valdos
ta, but they were not captured. Hen
derson was in for a life term and Wil
liams for a twenty-year tecm.
Fisherman Hooks a Blue Jay.
Judge Arthur Darlington and Re
corder Henry L. Yost of Montelair,
N. J., had an unusual experience while
fishing in Pine brook. In an extra
effort to throw the line far into the
stream the recorder threw it high in
the air, with the result that the hooks,
sinkers and line became lodged in 2
tree thirty-five feet high. The fisher
men got a boy to climb the tree and
release the fishing tackle. When the
lad reached the limb on which the line
was entangled he shouted, “You've
caught a flying fish!” and descended
with his prize, which was fast to the
hook. An examination showed that
instead of a flying fish the recorder
had hooked a blue jay.

7 VHow little do we know of the human
hearts that throb all about us—their
flerce temptations, their wild passions,
their struggles, their triurophs and
their defeats.
“What's done we partly may compute;
We know not what's resisted.”
And in it all how the little prayer,
with all its memories, is hugged to
the bosom, as a shield between one of
God’'s children and the dark abyss of
eternal despair.
It is one of the finest poems in the
language, simple in its expression
and sublime in its thought. Young
in its strength, Manhood in its prime,
Whitened Age, Ambition, Power,
Success, Failure, Agony and Sin,
should hold ever in the heart this gem
of prayers—
] vray the Lord my soul to keep."
POULTRY RAISING ON FARM.
Baker County Man Sells Wagon Load
of Chickens tor $3O.
Mr. James M. Barnett, of Barnett's
Mill, Baker county, a well known far
mer of this section, was in the city
today, with a wagon load of chickens
for the local market. He says that
poultry raising as a ‘‘side line’’ on a
farm, is a very profitable branch of
the industry. Of the 85 chickens
which he brought to town, Mr. Bar
nett sold fourteen for 40 cents each,
and 71 for 35 cents each. These
chickens were all raised in his yard,
and he considers them a good ‘‘pick
up.’’ He expressed the opinion that
more of the farmers of this section
would find poultry raising an easy
and profitable business if they under
stood better what a good demand
‘there is for chickens and eggs, and
what good prices they bring in the
local market. Mr. Barnett is an advo
cate of the ‘‘diversified farming’’ idea,
and says that as a consequence of this
fact he feels as though he were more
independent than he would otherwise
be. As proof of this fact, it may be
stated that Mr. Barnett has cotton
which he is still holding from last
vear, and he is not compelled to sell
his products until he gets ready, which
is generally at the most opportune
times from the standpoint of good
prices.—Albany Herald.
A STRANGE CAMPAIGN.
Race Against Death in Alabama for
for United States Senator.
“*The race for the succession to the
United States senate in our state is a
unique spectacle in American poli
tics,’’ says Captain Milton Humes of
Huntsville, Ala. ‘‘The term of Sena
tor Morgan will expire in March, 1907,
and of Senator Pettus in March, 1909.
Probably no man in Alabama could
supercede them if they were to make
the fight, and the contest now on is to
secure the endorsement for the succes
sion in the event either of these dis
tinguished patriarchs should pass
away before the legislature convenes
in regular session. |
‘lt presents a strange spectacle,
but in view of the advanced years of
both of the present senators and the
long period between the sessions of
the state legislature there seems to be
probably no other way out of the
question.”’ !
AFTER BETTER BULLET.
Government Making Tests at Spring
field Armory.
Bullets which are lighter and more
pointed than those now in use are be-
Ing tested at the government armory
at Springfield, Mass. The new bul
lets have much flatter trajectories than
the old type, and consequently are
more efficient against advancing ene
mies. On a 1,000-yard range the light
er bullet passed through a screen at
the 500-yard mark at an elevation ten
feet lower than the bullet now in use.
It is believed that for a distance of
700 yards out of 1,000 the lighter pro
jectile is capable of damage, while a
heavier bullet would pass completely
over the heads of the enemy for a
much greater proportion of the dis
tance. The heavier bullet is admitted
to be more accurate and thus better
for sharpshooters. The test to deter
mine the cowmparative merits of the
pointed and blunt forms have not been
completed.
Stomach Troubles and Constipation
- No one can reasonably hope for
good digestion when the bowels are
constipated. Mr. Chas. Baldwin, of
Vlidwardsville, 111., says: *‘l suffered
’fmm chronic constipation and stom
ach troubles for several years, but,
thanks to Chamberlain’s Stomach and
Liver Tablets, am almost cured.”
Why not get a package of these tab
lets and get well and stay well?

Cuba’s Progressiveiwss.
Cuba’s determination to spend $l,-‘;
000,000 for the purpose of inducing de
sirable immigrants to settle in the
island shows the Cuban government
to be progressive and awake to the
need of the country. Itis a signifi
cant fact that especial efforts are to
be made to secure immigration from
Norway, Sweden, Denmark and other
northern countries, while practically
no attention will be paid to Spain.
| Prof. Tyler, of Amherst college,
‘suid recently: ‘‘A man can live com
fortably without brains: no man ever
|existed without a digestive system.
The dyspeptic has neither faith, hope
or charity.”” Day by day people
realize the importance of caring for
their digestion: realize the need of
the use of a little corrective after over
‘eating. It digests what you eat.

While fishing in the Lehigh river
near Whitehaven, Pa. Patrick Tully,
a Lehigh Valley conductor, hooked a

another fisherman offered to wade the
stream and spear the fish. |
To his surprise, the fisherman found‘
his line entering the bunghole of n;

Girls, to Dodge Bull, Kill Snake.
Rather than face a savage bull in a
field behind them, Phoebe MeClure,
Ruth Rice and Grace and Elizabeth
Scott decided to give battle to a huge
blacksnake that confronted them in
the woods near South Windham,
Conn. With long sticks they hit the
'snake until it was stunned. Then
Miss Rice pinned it to the ground with
'a hatpin, and it was soon killed. - Then
the girls carried the dead snake to the
village. It was five feet four inches
long.
