Gen. Joe Johnston’s Masterly Re
treat.
•In*. Cnllawto' In Macon Trlojrraph.
The masterly retreat of the l•■rench
army brings to minilfien. .los. E. John
ston's retreat from Dalton to Atlanta.
Concerning this matter Henry Wat-
terson says—
"Kitchener. Jolfre and French have
undoubtedly taken a suggestion, if not
a lesson, from the famous Sherman-
Johnston campaign in America fifty
years ago. between the Kthof May and
the 17th of July, IBM, retiring foot by
foot before the Federate under Sher
man, the Confederates under Johnston
made the line from Dalton to Atlanta,
a distance of a hundred miles, so costly
anddangerouH thut, except for the good
generalship of Sherman, the Union
armH must have suffered defeat. There
are those who believe that, except for
tho untimely removal of Johnston from
his command, Sherman would still have
had to fall back on Chattanooga. He
hud lost in the battles about Kcsaca
and Kcnnesaw Mountain and thence on-
ward to Atlanta at least three to John
ston’s one, and the fighting quality of
tho Confederates was as untamed at
the laHt as lit the first of the seventy
days. Fabius himself in his memorable
retreats before Hannibal was not more
skillful than Johnston in his masterly
retreats before Sherman. Indeed, John
ston and Sherman were ho equally
mulched that the campaign seemed a
well-played game of chess by two ex
perts.”
And had C.en Joe Johnston not been
interfered with by ('resident Davis he
would have raptured Sherman. On July
17, IBM, Johnston had disposed his troops
preparatory to a great battle. Gen. A.
I*. Stewart, one of his corps command
ers, had received orders to place his
corps in posiiinn to attack Sherman nt
daylight on the next morning. During
the day of the 17th the “battle order”
was distributed signed by Gen. John
ston. saying the long-wishetl-for oppor
tunity hud come.
About dark of the 17lh Gen. Stewart
went to Johnston’s headquarters to re
port what had been done and await
further orders. The army, in fine trim,
was full of enthusiasm and esger for
tho battle, Gen. Johnston handed Gen.
Stewart a telegram from Richmond or
dering him to turn over his command
to Gen. Hood. Gen. Stewart begged
Gen. Johnston to suspend the matter
until after the buttle arranged for the
Isth. Gen. Johnston said the order be
ing direct from Richmond, he did not
feel at liberty to do so. Gen. Stewart
wired Richmond, hut the war office was
obstinate. The whole army felt keenly
the blunder. They were awaiting this
very "battle order.” and Richmond had
interfered. The interference was the
result of a visit to Gen. Johnston by
Hraxton Urugg, “military adviser” of
Mr. Davis. Bragg had been sent to lind
out Johnston's plans, hut Gen. John
ston kept his plans to himself. Gen.
lira ;g, who disliked Johnston, made his
report to Richmond. Hence this re
moval order.
I’hal order was the Confederacy's
(b ath-blow. It was as fatal as Gen.
Ewell’s mistake at Gettysburg. The
writer was home «< furlough, convales
cent from a long spell of typhoid fever,
contracted lit Cooaawhatchie Fort, S.
t'.. when about (terk a stranger called
to know if he could spend the night.
He had come via the Southwestern rail
road and took private conveyance at
Albany for Thomasvillo. The stranger
w is Gen. Stewart, of Johnston's army.
He was a tall, handsome man, with
keen brown eyes, erect and soldierly in
bearing. My father and mother were
at home, "the house by the side of the
road,” and tb-n. Stewart, after supper,
gave us n full story of Johnston's re
moval He regarded it as the blunder of
blunders. He said that everything was
in readiness for ihe battle of the istb
and the soldiers were full of enthusiasm
and eager to conquer Sherman, ltrax-
ton Uragg had go* in his revenge.
The allies remind one of the South.
» But it av no fatul blunder he made nt the
pn sent juncture no total "order" like
the' which made Sherman conqueror
ami destroyer.
Stock and Forage for Georgia
Farmers.
In the desire to co-operate with the
farmer in solving the crops and live
stock situation, which is decidedly the
absorbing topic of the hour in agricul
tural centers, the Central of Georgia
railway, through its agricultural de
partment, of which Mr. J. F. Jackson
is the head, has just placed an or
der for seeds of commodities used in
the West as steady sources of revenue.
On the test farms, where the new
commodities will be tried, (one of which
is in Terrell county, two miles from
Dawson,) will be planted this winter
seed of the hairy vetch, the crimson
clover, burr clover and alfalfa. Five
tons of the first commodity named, one
ton of the crimson clover and live hun
dred pounds each of the burr clover
and alfalfa seed will be made available
within the next few weeks for experi
mental pur|x>ses among farmers along
the line of the Central railway in Geor
gia and Alabama.
The seed which are native to the
West will be cultivated in order to
demonstrate to Southern farmers the
desirable feutures of the huiry vetch,
crimson clover, burr clover and alfalfa
as a cover crop for the winter. These
commodities can be grown with profit
in this region, and it is expected that
the railroad will make an elFort to in
terest the Southern planters in order to
have these excellent items of forage
cultivated to an extensive degree.
Mr. T. G. Chastain, agriculturist
serving under Mr. Jackson, has gone
to Kansus to purchase short-horn Dur
ham bulls, which will be given away as
prizes next year in the boys’ four-crop
club contests, Sixteen of the hulls are
to he brought hack to Georgia and
“loaned" to furmors until the crop con
tests are decided, the farmer, in turn,
agreeing to put in a dipping vat to kill
the destructive cattle tick.
Mr. W. T. Bennett, agriculturist in
the same department, has gone to
Kentucky to purchase in that State a
car-load of short-horn heifers. The
heifers are to he sold to the farmers
to whom the male animate are loaned
for some months. The idea generally
is to advance the interest in cattle
raising in Georgia and Alabama.
The hairy vetch, crimson clover,
burr clover and alfalfa, all recognized
as excellent commodities for forage,
are intended to occupy the position of
a connecting and necessary link in the
consistent effort being made by the
Central railway to advance the cultiva
tion of stock in this, and the adjoining
State of Alabama.
W. T. Hutchens, Nicholson, Gn., had
a severe attack of rheumatism. His
feet, unkles and joints were swollen,
and moving about was very painful.
He was certainly in a bad way when he
started to take Foley’s Kidney l’ills.
He says, "Just a few doses made me
feel better, and now my pains ami
rheumatism are all gone and I sleep all
ntgln long." For sale by all dealers.
Before the passage of the present
strict hanking laws in Wisconsin start
ing a bank was a comparatively simple
proposition. The surprisingly small
amount of capital needed is well illus
trated by the story a prosperous coun
try town banker told on himself when
asked how he happened to enter the
banking business.
"Well," he said. ”1 didn't have
much else to do. so 1 rented an empty
store building and painted ’Bank' on
the window. Tho first day 1 was open
for business a man came in and de
posited $100 with me; the second day
another man dropped in and deposited
$250; and so, by George! along about
the third day I got confidence enough
in the hunk to put in a hundred my
self."
The goose had been carved at dinner
and everybody had tasted it. It was
excellent. The negro minister, who was
the guest of honor, could not restrain
Ills enthusiasm.
"Bat's as tine a goose ns I eber see,
Brudder Williams,” he said to his host.
"W bar did you git such a line goose?”
"Well, now, parson." replied the car
ver of the goose, exhibiting great dig
nity and reticence, "when you preaches
a speshul good sermon 1 nebber axes
you whar you got it. i hopes you will
sho* me de same consideration."

American Tobacco Company's "Buy-
a-Bale" Offer Helps Merchants
in Southern States.
New York, Sept. 22.--The American
Tobacco Company is to lend its power
ful support to making the “buy-a-bale-
of-cotton" idea a success. The plan
evolved by the tobacco company will
greatly help the cotton situation in the
South, while at the same time atimula- i
ting trade through the Southern States,
and so establishing conhdence in the
South's continued prosperity.
In n letter sent to its customers Per-
cival S. Hill, [(resident of the American
Tobacco Co., makes the following of
fer:
"We will purchase, at 10c. a pound, I
as many pounds of good middling cot-!
ton from each of our customers in the
above-named States as the aggregate)
number of pounds of Red J. and Penn’s
Natural Leaf plug tobaccos, Bull Dur
ham and Tuxedo smoking tobaccos, and
Sovereign cigarettes (counting each
thousand of Sovereign cigarettes as
equal to five pounds of tobacco,) shipped
direct to such customer from Sept. 29,
1614, to Nov. :!0, 1911.”
This letter was sent to dealers in Al
abama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia,
Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina,
Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee
and Texas, so that the beneticial effects
of this plan will be far-reaching.
Mr. Hill gave out the following state
ment: "It is our plan to rentier uniform
help to our customers in all cotton
growing sections. The brands on which
we make this cotton-buying offer have
such a large sale throughout these sec
tions that we e timate 10,000 bales of
cotton can be bought by our company
under this plan. By offering to buy
cotton from its Southern customers the
company feels it is rendering a service
to the territory which deals largely
with it, and is also making a sound
linancial investment.”

Who knows who Mendelssohn was?
He was a great German musician who
composed many oratorios and other
pieces of music. He live! a great deal
in England, and here some of his work
was first produced. One of his orato
rios wa3 on the subject of Elijah. Do
you remembe- about Elijah, ar.d Ahah,
and the widow’s son, and the ravens
and the chariot? It will take quite a
time to read all, but you will be much
interested. Mendelssohn's oratorio of
“Eli j ah” was first produced at Birm
ingham: and when he was there super
intending the rehearsal he one day
came across a boy chorister who was
striving to play the music of his own
part on a piano.
Wh« per pie who were trying to ren
der Mendelssohn’s music were idle or
careless, he often spoke to them harsh
ly: and once he told some musicians
who were not doing their best that they
were making a noise like cats. But
Mendelssohn noticed that though the
boy chorister was not doing especially
well, yet he was doing the very best he
could. So he went up and spoke to
him. Tlie hoy was quite frightened to
have the great composer by his side.
But his fright gave way to pleasure
when M'-ndeissohn said: "Let me sit
on the stool, my boy. and show you
how the music should be rendered.”
The chorister gave up his place, and
Mendelssohn sat down and played over
the music and taught the delighted hoy
how to make the best of his part.
You may be sure that there wa3 a
proud choir boy in Birmingham that
day. Do you really understand why
| Mendelssohn helped him? It was be-
] cause he saw that the boy was really
doing his best.

An old darkey was standing on the
street cornerof an Arkansas town talk
ing politics during the Presidential
campaign of 1912. A white man passing
by remarked to him: "Erastus, why do
you waste so much time talking poli
tics: you know nothing about it.” The
old negro replied: "Yes I does, too; I
know a heap more dan you thinks 1
does." The man replied: “You can’t
even tell who is running for President.
Tell the names of the candidates of the
various parties. ’’ The old negro thought
for a moment and then said: "Well, de
’Publicans dey is runnin’ Mr. Tail', and
de aggressives is runnin' Kurnel Ruos-
enfelt, and—and er -and er (scratching
his head in a puzzled way) I done for-
gits npw who de white folks am a run-
nin’. ”
In factories for making cloth a sin
gle broken thread ruins the whole web.
It is traced back to the girl making the
blunder and the loss is deducted from
her wages. But who will pay for the
broken threads in life’s great web?
We cannot throw hack and fortli the
empty shuttle; threads of some kind
follow every movement as we weave
the web of our fate. It may be a
shoddy thread of wasted hours or lost
opportunities that will mar the fabric
and modify the workman forever; or
it may ho a golden thread that will add
to its beauty and lustre. We cannot
stop the shuttle or pull out the unfor
tunate thread which stretches across
the fabric, a perpetual witness to our
folly.
Why Not Publish It?
When you want a fact to become
generally known, the right way is to
publish it. Mrs. Joseph Kallas, Peru,
lnd., was troubled with belching, sour
stomach and frequent headaches. She
writes, "1 feel it my duty to tell others
what Chamberlain’s Tablets have done
for me. They have helped my diges
tion and regulated my bowels. Since
using them I have been entirely well."
For sale bv all dealers.
Toned up Whole System.
"Chamberlain’s Tablets have uone
more for me than I ever dared hope for, ”
writes Mrs. Esther Mae Baker, Spencer-
port, N. Y. "i used several bottles of
these tablets a few months ago. They
not only cured me of bilious attacks,
sick headaches and that tired out feel
ing, but toned up my whole system."
For sale by all dealers.
The great difference between those
who succeed and those who fail does
not consist in the amount of work done
by each, but in theamount of intelligent
work. Many of those who fail most
ignominiously do enough to achieve
grand success; but they labor at hap
hazard, building up with one hand,
only to tear down with the other. They
do not grasp circumstances and turn
them into opportunities. They have no
faculty for turning honest defeats into
telling victories. With ability enough
and time in abundance —the warp and
woof of success — they are forever
throwing back and forth an empty
shuttle and the real web of life is never
woven.

“Father.” said the student, "I want
to talk to you about changing my
course of study."
"Talk tc your mother, son,” directed
the father, who was reading the sport
ing page.
"Mother,” said the son, “I made a
mistake when 1 selected chemistry.
But it is not too late to change even
yet. I want to take astronomy instead.”
The mother searched the eyes of her
son sharply. Then she said:
"Nope. You'll have to think up some
better excuse for staying out at night!”
"I wish this fellow wouldn't send you
so many chocolates," said the other
suitor.
"Why?” simpered the girl. "Are
you jealous?”
“No, but 1 prefer to eat marshmal

Cardui, my back and head would hurt so bad, 1
thought the pain would kill me. I was hardly able
to do any of my housework. After taking three bottles
of Cardui, l began to feel like a new woman. I soon
