Stevens ft Bro., jevelers, 47 Whitehall street, Atlanta, Ga. It is, predicted that the rainy spell that has been on for several days will con' tlnue for forty days. That is the prophecy of a citizen, who says the people can satisfy themselves that they will have rain for forty days from July 15. He bases bis predictions upon the fact that the 15th of July was St. Swlthln's day, and that there is a legend that says If 4t rains on St. Swlthln's day It will rain for forty days. Following is the story: ’ St. Swlthln’s day, If tMou dost rain, For forty days it will remain; St. Swtthln s day, If thou be fair. For forty days it will rain no more. If it rains on St. Swlthln’s day, there w<Ill be rain, more or less, every day, for the next forty days afterwards. The origin of this old and well known saying is obscure. In Mr. Brand’s “Popular Antlnquities," there !* a printed state ment m Mr. Brand's last work, thus: “In the year 8C5, St. 8within. Bishop of Winchester, to which rank he was raised by King Ethelwolfe, the Dane dying, was canonized by the then pope. He was sin- gular for his desire to be burled In the open church yard, and not in the chancel of the minister, aa was usual with other bishops, which request was compiled with; but the monks, on his bring canonized, taking Lt into their heads that it was disgraceful for the saint to lie in the open church yard, resolved to remove his body Into the choir, which was to have been done with solemn procession on the 15th of July. It'rained, however, so vio lently on that day, and for forty days succeeding, as had hardly been known, which made thorn set a3lde their design as heretical and blasphemous; and. In stead, they erected a Chapel over h!s grave,, at which' many miracles are said to have been wrought." Ben Johnson In "Evefy Man Out of $Us Humour," has a touch at almanac wisdom and on St. Swlthln’s power over the weather. St. Swlthln’s relics were afterward re- movedtnto the Cathedral of Winchester on its being built under William the Con queror. CUT OUT THIS. A Free Ride to Washington and Return to the Most Popular Knight. The Macon and Northern, in connec tion with the Seaboard Air Line, have opened up a new route from Macon to Extern and Virginia cities. The pas- voager equipment of the Macon and Northern railroad has just been re ceived from the shops and is one of the finest trans leading out of Macon. The Macon and Northern makes close con nections at Athena with the solid vesti bule limited train of the Seaboard Ail Line, on of the handsomest trains couth or Baltimore. This new line opens up the most delightful and picturesque routes from this section to all pbints in the Carolines, Virginia and the East and is becoming more popular every day. The route to Washington over which the free ticket will read will be Macon and Northern and Seaboard Air Line to Norfolk, thence via the pala tial steamers of the Washington and Norfolk line, giving passengers a most delightful ride up the grand and pic turesque Potomac, landing passengers at the foot bf the Washington monu ment. On the way up the Potomac stops will be made at different points of interest, including Old Point Comfort, Fortress Monroe. Mt. Vernon (the home of the illustrious Washington) nml at the navy yards, where a view can be ha/I of the United States war ships. The ticket will be good August 27th going and good* to return September 5. The grand conclave of Knights of Py thias of the United States will assem ble in Washington August 28 and ba reviewed by President Cleveland, a pleasanter ride could not be taken at thi« time of the year. The monotony of nn all-rail line is broken by the boat ride from Norfolk, and passengers can go into Washington feeling fresh, with out dust and in a position to enjoy tha festivities immediately-upon arrival in Washingon. t For « Residence * 1 As the Most Popular Knight of < Pythias. * The one receiving the highest « 1 number of ballots will receive a * 1 round trip ticket from Macon tb * 1 Washington and return over the 1 1 popular Macon and Northern 1 1 rallioad.
