A Good Duck Story.
Mr. F C. Lanier tells us a pathetic
duck story. He owned a pair ol
ducks, one' of which was seriously
injured and was put in a pen for
protection. The old drake was
faithful to his better half, and sat
around near the pen with all the
patience of one auxious for the re
covery of some dear one. The in
jured duck died within a few days,
and the old drake refused to eat,and
finally died from grief for he was
apparently in the best of health, and
was well" fed regularly. Is there
any lover whose eyes fall upon this
pathetic love story who would stick
to his ‘duck” as faithfully?
To the Public.

Hines’ Kecortl.
The Sandersville Proqress says:
In his speech delivered in the court
house yard at Sandersville on Mon
day, September 3d, candidate Hines
made a statement in regard to bis
connection with the Lawson estate.
Capt. Chas. M. Tyson, the adminis
trator of this estate, requests space
j in the Proqress for the publication
[ of the following facts which appear
over his own signature. Capt. Ty
son feels that inasmuch as candi-
| date Hines has brought the matter
j before the public in a political
speech, it is but justice to him, the
orphans of Capt. and Mrs. W. II
Lawson, the gentlemen who are his
bondsmen, as administrator of the
estate, ami all persons concerned,
that the truth should be known to
the people generally.
“Fditor Proqress:—Judge Hines is
quoted as saying in his speech of
the 3d inst., ‘that lie could have
saddled the loss of these funds upon
those orphans, but be intended
they should not lose a dollar even
if it should become necessary for
him aucLhis wife and his children
to give up their home to satisfy the
claims of the administrator of that
estate.’ Since Judge Hines has
seen fit to speak of this matter,
in such a manner, in a politi
cal speech, I deem it right and
proper as the administrator of
Mrs. Lawson’s estate, to say ihat I
cannot appreciate the above re
marks, as I know of no way where
by lie could saddle the loss of these
funds upon the children except by
base, dishonesty and surely he did
not intend, no matter what his real
purpose might be, to intimate such
a thing in a public political speech,
the object of which I presume was
to gain votes, or else he estimates
the integrity of his hearers very
low.
“Judge Hines sought Mrs. Lawson
at her home and requested the priv
ilege of investing the funds, promis
ing to consult her whenever a good
opportunity presented itself. With
this understanding and with the in
junction that he pay off at once a
debt upon the Oconee plantation,
he obtained the fund®. Prior to
Airs. Lawson’s death, which occur
red May Sth, 1893, he wrote to her,
without having submitted anything
for her approval, that he had paid
off tlie debt upon the Oconee plan
tation and had invested and paid
out the balance of the funds as
stated in said letter, which letters
happens to be in my possession.
“According to that letter he did
manage to pay a few drafts and
bills sent to him for payment by
Mrs. Lawson, and to invest $2,600
as claimed.
“There was then left about $12,500
which he claimed had been invest
ed as follows:
“About $4,000. In Georgia state
bonds.
“About $2,000. Loaned and se
cured by deed to $6,000 of property.
“The $2,500 loan was claimed to
have been made upon property at
Tallulah Falls, and the $2,000 loan
upon Atlanta property.
“The truth is that he failed to pay
one dollar upon the debt on the
Oconee plantation, and every dollar
that has been paid, something over
$3,200 has been paid by me.
“He has failed to produce the four
$1,000 state of Georgia bonds or the
money.
“He failed to lend the $2,500 on
the Tallulah Fall’s property, claim

We clip the following from the At
lanta Constitution in the hope that it
will protect our readers against the
misrepresentations of any unreliable
book agents who may approach them.
The Constitution is certainly doing an
excellent work in the way of encourag
ing methods of home education. And
it is to be deplored that there are per
sons so unscrupulous as to take advan
tage of the great interest which has
thus been aroused and attempt to turn
it to their own personal gain.
It would be bad enough if they simply
defrauded The Constitution of the right
ful reward for its liberal educational
enterprise, but what is worse, these
pretenders are palming off on an unsus
pecting public all sorts of inferior pub
lications, at a price nearly sufficient to
bay the genuine new edition of the En
cyclopaedia Britannica, now offered at
special iutroductiory rates by The Con
stitution. The Constitution says:
In Wednesday’s Constitution the lead
ing editorial was devoted to an expose of
the insidious attempt of the jute trust to
deceive cotton shippers. This brings us to
the consideration of another matter upou
which the public should be informed.
Believing that the wide dissemination
of the new edition of the Encyclopaedia
Britannica would be a lasting and decided
benefit to the people of this section, a
special introductory contract was secured
from the Britannica publishers wholly iu
the interest of our readers. The Consti
tution is not in the book business for any
profit on the sales. It is not concerned, iu
a pecuniary sense, further than the legiti
mate increase of the number of subscrib
ers to the daily and the weekly Constitu
tion. The knowledge of the educational
good it is accomplishing through this lib
eral offer would alone be sufficient recom
pense for the entire undertaking.
This liberal enterprise of The Constitu
tion has excited the cupidity of certain
persons who have other books to sell.
Taking advantage of our methods for in
troduction of Britannica into houses not
already provided, they seek to cunningly
impress prospective buyers that they can
offer something “practically the same” or
“just as good.” This is deceptive, and we
wish our readers to understand that the
new edition of the Encyclopedia Bvitan-
niea is just off the press; that it has never
been offered to the public before in any
section of the United States, and that it
can be had only from The Constitution or
its authorized representatives. All others
purporting to be the same are so present
ed for the purpose of deception.
This is a matter to which The Constitu
tion has been- slow to make reference, be
cause we recognize the right of every man
to advance his own pecuniary interests by
gelling any books he may have or may be
able to obtain. While no'reference library
cau be found equal to the r.ew edition of
the Encyclopedia Britannica, vot The Con
stitution recognizes the fact tliat this dees
not render other reference libraries value
less; and there may be those who could
not afford to purchase the best even at the
exceptionally low introductory price now
offered to The Constitution readers. It
would be an undoubted blessing to such
to obtain a reference library of any sort
that Would come within their means, for
all reference books are valuable aids to
ward self-education.
There can be no objection, therefore, to
other persons offering their books for sale
anywnei’e and at any time they see fit, so
long as they confine themselves to the
truth, and sell their books at proper prices,
not attempting by deceptive methods, to
obtain for their inferior works a price
which would enable the purchaser, had
he not been deceived, to obtain the genu
ine new edition of the Encylopaedla Brit
tanies. It would be all well enough if
these inferior works were sold at a price
proportionate but tboso who buy should
understand that they are not getting the
new edition, or-anythlnfj like it. A refer
ence to any modern subject, such as Aus
tralian ballot system, welding iron by elec
tricity, electrocution, etc., show how ut
terly inadequate these out-of-date editions
are to fill the needs of a man who wants
up-to-date information.
Some of these itinerants have been so
bold aa to use language intended to lead
buyers to believe that they were represen
tatives of The Constitution. A little care,
however, will uncover this mask, as every
person who is authorized to offer the new
edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica is
provided with a letter of identification
