Happy and Care Free In the Eten- Ins In tlic True Tarlatan. The Frenchman, with all his polite ness unci little niceties, Is not a good dre*ser. He Is nowhere near the class of the London man, nor can he equal die Baltimore man who gives thought to his wardrobe. This, of course, ap plies to generalities. There are ex ceptions where the Frenchman is a model of the tuilor's and haberdasher's skill. As a rule, however, there ure other things that mean much more to him than mere clothes. For Instance, he likes to dine. Every Frenchman, in the proper sense of the word, dines in the evening. He prefers highly sea soned food If he can get It anil service of u corresponding degree of excel lence. But dine he must and dine he will—if not n good dinner, then a poor one. He must have his soup, his fish, a roast, an entree, some salad, dessert and a bit of cheese. With this he has wine, the vintage regulated by the sice of ids bank roll. His coffee, in the summer time, he will take outside with a cigarette or cigar, and his en joyment is not complete unless he hears the strains of an orchestra. He Is not, perhaps, so passionately fond of music as the German, but still he likes It and will have it If he can afford It. He is gay and happy in the evenings, Is the Frenchman, and his cures, whatever they are, he dismisses tomporarlly. He rises late, and he dines late. Nine o’clock Is about the proper hour for the coffee, after he has paid his respects to the various courses. Then lie is ready for the gay life.

Sauce lor the herald and Advertiser's Crow. Hoke Smith's pathway to the governor’s mansion will be found briered with many brambles be fore he reaches it—brambles of his own sowing, too—-but even in the bitterness of defeat we hope he will pause long enough in his melancholy ruminations to permit its to say, “We told you so!” For his end will be as we have proph esied from the beginning—lie’s a heat man!—Herald and Advertis er, July 27th, 1906.

Hoke Smith ami his friends will not Isilt the Macon convention,and it is not prolmhle that the other fellows will. Georgians are now at liberty to ! bestow a few thoughts upon the national political situation. A House of Representatives is to be elected this fall, and Chairman James M.

A IJebl of Gratitude That Thla Conn- try (Iwm to Spnln. During the stnunier of 1770 Captain John Lee of Marblehead, cruising un der a commission from congress, hav ing taken and sent home five valuable prizes, entered the port of Bilbao In Spain. The captains of two of his prizes and a part of their crews were on board. These officers Immediately protested against their capture and had Captain Lee arrested on a charge of piracy. The local authorities sent the documents in the cuso to Madrid, to gether with the commission granted by this new and unknown power. In the decision of the Bpunlsh min istry depended not alone the fate of Captain I^ee, but whether some of the most Important ports in Europe should be opened or closed to American crui sers and privateers. The English min ister In Spnln brought nil his Influence to bear against Captain Lee. At this moment the Declaration of the Fourth of July reached Madrid. The complaint ugainst Captain Lee wan dismissed, supplies for his ship and aid In repair ing it were furnished, and public dec laration was made that in Spanish ports the new flag of America was us free and us welcome as was the flag of Eng land. Spain, like France, also helped the United States with 1,000,000 fruncs and with cargoes of military stores.— Boston Globe. One other thing—the primary confirmed public opinion in regard to Fred Ananias Lewis and Ralph George Washington .smith. Possibly Hon. William J. Hryan will ask Hon. Hoke Smith to tell hitn "how he done it” before the next presidential contest is pulled off. Newnan has the brightest fu ture of any town in this section of Georgia. Great things will be done in Newnan during the next few years. Officers of the law in Atlanta iand Fulton county are preparing to give the vagrants the time of their lives. Idleness is the cause of most of the trouble Fulton coun ty has lieon having with negroes, 1 and the authorities are getting down to the root of this matter by going after the vagrants. What is true in Fulton is true in every other county in Georgia. Idle negroes commit crimes and cause most of the trouble. If they re fuse to work elsewhere, they should lie forced to work in our ehaingangs. A little advertisement placed in the columns of the News may bring big results. At least, it will get results proportionate to the expenditure. Before the H. end A. hit the Earth. It would be a pity if,after a year of strenuous campaigning, Mr. H. Smith should “tall down” when the State Convention meets in September, and yet this is just what will happen. His defeat is foretold in signs of disapproval on the part of the people that cannot be misunderstood.—Herald and Advert : ser, June 29th K ,i9o6. The “Longest Resident.* The poverty of the English language is exemplified by a circular which is making the round* of a suburb and in vites subscriptions to a testimonial to tlie station master. It comes from one who styles himself “the longest resi dent,” the sad physical fact being that he Is probably the shortest, although in bulk and rotundity he makes up for the inches he lucks in height. Here is a case in which the very clumsiness of the German language would be an in estimable help, for then this gentleman could quite correctly describe himself "the for-the-lougest-time-hereln resid ing" or even perhaps "the for-the- lougest-tlme-herein-residlngest” individ ual.

Governor Terrell has been pre sented with a rare Confederate bank note which was issued by the treasurer of Meriwether county in 1862. The note is for #2 and was issued by D. Ellis, who served during the first years of the civil war. The note bears the date of July 26, 1862, and is made payable af ter January 1, 1863. The bill was found by Colonel Robert J. Low ery among a number of old war documents, and was presented to the governor as Meriwether county is the chief executive’s home.— Atlanta Journal. A Taste That Aste Withers. According to a member of the candy loving sex, there is no Badder evidence of age in a woman than being able to pass a bonbon shop without being tempted by the wares. "When a woman can do this," she says, "she is frankly middle aged. During your school days chocolates are a recog nized necessity of existence. During the early bud period of matinee hero worship they are indispensable to the enjoyment of a performance. When your mouth does not water at the mere idea of a caramel or a marshmallow begin to search for the first gray hair.” —New York Press. Good For There are some people who turn gray, but do not grow hoary; whose faces are i furrowed, but not wrinkled; whose j hearts are sore wounded in many ; places, but are not dead. There Is a 1 youth that bids defiance to old age, and j there is n kindness which laughs at the ! world’s usage. These are they who have returned good for evil. Whom the gods love die young, and they die young because they never grow old. POTTS AND PARKS LEADERS IN DRESS GOODS. We are daily opening new goods in cottons, woollens and fancies.
