FRIDAY. MAY 17. 1007.
11 is against the law now for the
express companies to deliver whis
key to minors. This will do some
good, in that it will make it harder
for young boys to get it—and that
is, after all, the most important
tiling, to keep it away from the
boys.
Tho papers are getting off all
kinds of’funny things about the
AUcent meeting of the governor of
South Carolina and the governor
of North Carolina, It seems that
these two executives have greatly
improved upon their predecessors
"f old, and refused to take any
thing stronger than lemonade.
It will bo pleasant news to the
owners of property in the new town
of St. George, Ga., to know of the
steady improvement in that town.
I le re are now over six hundred
inhabitants, and the value of the
taxable property has increased from
$'■•0,000 last year to $150,000 this
year. .St. George will come after
a while—.just give her time.
The Interstate Commerce Com
mission has prevented an express
company in the state of New York
from raising its rates on certain
articles. This they did under the
new rate law, aud it is one of the
first things we have heard of the
Interstate Commission accomplish
ing. It is to be hoped they will
be able now to hold the express
companies down, all along the line.
If there is anything higher than
express rates, we wouldn’t like to
hear of it.
The Screven county friends of
Rev. D. S. Edeidield will be inter
ested to know of the dedication
last Tuesday night of the South
Side Baptist church in Savannah,
which Mr. Edentield organized and
built, aud of which he has been
pastor for the past nine years. Mr.
Edenfield had other calls, but
would not leave the church as long
as it was in debt. Tuesday night,
however, the notes and mortgage
were burned upon the altar, in the
presence of the congregation and
while the deacons and trustees
stood around. His church being
out of debt, Mr. Edenfield has
now gone to Atlanta to become
pastor of the Grant Park church.
Mr. R. J. Lowry, of Atlanta,
who has been attending a meeting
of the executive committee of the
American Bankers Association at
Hot Springs, Ark, is convinced
that the young men of the country
an going to send Mr. Roosevelt
I nick to the White House for a
third term. It is undoubtedly
true that there is a strong senti
ment like this everywhere over the
country. Mr. Roosevelt is the most
popular president that ever sat in
the chief executive chair—and we
do not believe any have ever been
more courageous and conscientious
than he. These are times when
we need such a man to watch over
the nation’s welfare—never was
there a greater need for it. Per
haps it may come to pass that Mr.
Grave’s suggestion was not such a
chimerical one, after all.
Health Talk.
Now that the hot weather is ap
proaching, it behooves up all
look well to the premises,
anti see that there are HO
moi-quito-breediug dens around
the place. Most especially so, on
account of the continued rains for
the past few' weeks. With regard
to the town of Sylvania, we sin-!
cerely trust that our present pro
gress ive and enterprising council j
will not relax one iota of vigilance
along this line, but will rather in
crease their watchfulness over the
health of the town. After all is
said, teis is the most important
duty that confronts them, and all
good citizens must of necessity
endorse everything that is done in
this line. We trust they will see
to it that all sanitary regulations
are strictly complied with, and
that the town itself will do its
duty to the citizens in this regard.
In addition to other things, they
should look out for stagnant water
in the town, and see that it is done
away with, or that mosquitoes do not
breed in it. The branches should
be drained, and ill stagnant water
carried off, if possible. This
has been a wet spring, and hot
weather is at hand—and therefore,
let every citizen of the town take
every precaution possible to guard
the health of their own families
and of those who live around them.
The decision of the court of ap
peals sustaining the validity of the
Boykin law, means that the buck
et shops cannot do business in
Georgia any more. This means
that, as far as this state is concern
ed, there will be no more specula
tion through this channel, and
there’s no way of estimating the
amount of money it will save to
the people of Georgia. The buck
et shop has been like a vampire
upon the business men of the
South, and has left a path strewn
with wrecks, failures, crimes and
suicides.
In a recent debate in the British ,
house of Commons, Mr. Balfour j
compared r the prime minister to
•
‘"Aaron between his two support
evs.’’ The premier interrupted!
and asked if it were not Solomon !
instead of Aaron. Mr. Balfour re
torted: “Solomon had to decide,
not between two supporters, but
between two babies.” The ridi
culous blunder was exposed and
laughed at, and Mr. Balfour I
1
covered his mortification by an S
apology and an admission of the j
importance of some simple Bible ;
teachings.
Since Then Has Went.
There ain’t nothing much , no more,
And nothing ain’t no use to me;
In vain I pace the lonely shore,
For I have saw the last of thee,
I seen a ship upon the deep,
And signalled this here last lament;
I haven't did a thing but weep
Since thou has went.
Alas! for I ain’t one of they,
What hasn’t got faith in love ;
And them fond words of yesterday,
They was spoke true by ' heaven above,
Is , it all off tw.xt . T I and you? ,,
" ill you go and wed some other gent .’
The things 1 done I’d fain undo
Since thou has went.
Oh love! , , I . know a what , . T I have . did ... .

Before my feelings get intense,
I have gave up all wealth and show,
I have gave up all hope of fame,
But oh ! what joy twould be to know
That Ihou hast came.

How shall I tell thee not to weep.

Alas! for I ain’t one of they,

Obeying Orders.
A celebrated specialist to whom time
was money, and who had an imperious
temper, made it 11 rule that all patients
should undress before entering his con
sulting room so as not to waste any of
his time. One day a meolc looking lit
tle man entered with all his clothes on.
“What do you mean by coming in
like that?” asked the doctor in a rage.
”Go and strip at once.”
“Hut I”- faltered the man.
“I tell you I’ve uo time to waste,”
yelled the doctor, and tire man left the
room in haste. When his turn came
lie re-catered the room. “Now then,"
said the doctor, “that’s better. What
cun 1 do for you?”
“I called to collect your subscription
for the benevolent society.”
INVICTUS.
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
T have not winced npr cried aloud!
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbow'd.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
booms but the horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the yeara
Finds and shall And me unafraid.
It matters not how straight the gate,
How charged with punishments the
scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
—W. E. Henley.
So She Had Heard.
In an Episcopal church in Peoria if
Is an Easter morning custom for tho
ushers to greet incoming members of
the congregation with, “The Lord is
risen.” An old lady who was deaf and
who had but recently united with the
church was met by Dr. Tyng with the
salutation.
"What is it?” she asked, pausing and
placing her hand to her ear.
“The Lord is risen,” repeated the
doctor.
“Oil, yes’,” said the lady absently ns
she moved on down the aisle. She
was met by another usher, who gave
her the same greeting.
“What did you say?” she demanded,
“The Lord Is risen,” returned the
usher.
“Oh, yes, so Dr. Tyng tells me,” she
remarked complacently as she entered
a pew.—Everybody’s.
Thoughts on Love.
Tlw iirst sigh of love is the last of
wisdom.— Antoine Bret.
Love is like the moon; when it does
not Increase it decreases.—Segur.
Love is the most (binder headed of
all the passions; it never will listen to
reason. The very rudiments of logic
are unknown to it.—Bulwer-Lytton.
In love, as in war, a fortress that
parleys is half taken.—Marguerite de
Valois.
Abasin 9 Oneself.
General Ogle, a member of the I’enn
sylvania assembly, liad been deputed
tl ’ rouliMIS ‘ uddi-esa to the newly
elected president, Andrew Jackson.
When the old warrior submitted his
document to the house, a fellow nieni
her, a short man of light build, from
Philadelphia, observed:
•'Pardon me, general. I hesitate
about making any suggestion to so dis
tinguished an individual, hut I canuot
refrain from saying that it is custom
ary with cultured letter writers to
write the first personal pronoun with
a capital T instead of a small V ’’
General Ogle returned a look of
scorn. “Sir,” said he, “when I write
to so great a man as General Andrew
J;u ’ ksou > Democratic president of the
United States, X abase myself—I abase
myself, sir. 1 use as small an T as I
can put upon paper. But, sir, if ever I
should have to write to a little snipe
like you I would use an ‘I,’ sir, that
would fill two pages of foolscap.”

to man:

Not Too Long.
The chapel of a fishing village in
Newfoundland used to depend for iti.
services on the occasional help of tli*
clergy of the nearest town. One wet
Sunday the clergyman who volunteer
ed to do the duty drove over in a hack.
Tolling the chapel bell himself, lie
announced his arrival to the natives,
but for a long time no one appeared.
At last one solitary person came In
and took a seat at the very back of the
chapel. Tho clergyman then found Ills

A young lady of Macon, Ga., visited
the home of her tlaucc lu New Orleans.
On her return home tin old colored
woman, long in the service of the fam

“Honey, when Is you goiu’ to git

The engagement not having been an
