Carrollton, Ga., July 1. —Carrollton was to-day shocked by the arrest of Ed Cheney, ticket agent of the Central railway, on a warrant charging him with the murder of J. L. Guill, depot agent, who was mysteriously killed in the depot last Thursday night. The warrant was sworn out for Cheney's arrest by Willis Guill, a son of the dead man. Both the Guilts and Mr. Cheney were highly respected citizens of Carrollton. I Cheney was rushed to Atlanta by i Sheriff W. A. Garrett for safekeeping in the Fulion county tower, leaving here before it became generally known that he had been arrested. No one had suspected Cheney of the murder. Mr Cheney has been working under Mr. Guill for a number of year3 and was considered a close friend of the murdered depot agent. It is not definitely known on what ev idence Cheney has been arrested or what connection he is alleged to have had with the killing of Guill. Knee-Deep in June. Fair month of Jnne, sweet month of June! I’ll take my harp and punch a tune from its old, ragged, rusty wires— the hardest work of modern lyres! In June Dame Nature’s at her best, in all the wealth of verdure dressed, with bright, red roses in her hair, and yellow roses everywhere, and roses pink and roses white—ah, then Dame Nature is a sight! It’s hard for us to realize that this bright girl with starry eyes is she who pelted us with snow and slush and sleet some weeks ago. The termagant who ripped and swore and shook the panes and slammed the door, who filled our hearts with dread and fears and froze our whiskers and our ears, is sweet and soft and smiling now, with the lilac blooms upon her brow. Oh, June, why can’t you always stay and keep the old world looking gay? Why must you be in such a rush? Why can’t the roses always blush? Stay with us, June, and beam and smile; take off your things and stop awhile! Just put your grip upon the stairs and place your feet in yonder chairs and mane yourself at home, my dear ; you'll always find a welcome here! But June, she whispers in reply, “Alas ! time presses—I must fly ! I can he but a transient guest; I mosey on at Time’s behest. 1 If ow you love me passing well, and think of all the months I’m the belle. And so I am. I know I’m smooth; the jaded soul of man I soothe. I am the month that’s safe and sane ; I bring all blessings in my train I give the world the sweet June bride, of all mortality the pride, the fairest flower that ever irrew, old as the earth and ever new. I give the world the best she knows of beauty, comfort and repose. I am a daisy and a peach ; no wonder then that you be seech Urn I shall stay for many moons —you’d have each year a dozen Junes. “But, ah, I know you too blamed well,” sighsJune, that most entrancing belle. “If I could stay, I 11 bet three farms you’d soon grow weary of my charms! You’d soon be saying, ‘Hully gee! they take from human frames the starch—give me the good old winds of March.’ You’d soon grow weary of the rose, of every spicy breeze that blows, of azure skies and all the rest— •’tis well I'm but a transient guest.’’ j Perhaps she’s right: so let her fly, and all get ready for July.

All Babies Destined to Great Achievement To be born is to be great. For there are possibilities in every tiny human in fant. And for this reason every one should remember that whatever is done to aid the mother, to re lieve hef of distresses during her trying months, will surely he of marked benefit to the child. Among the sterling aids is a splendid ex ternal remedy known as “Mother’s Friend.’ It is what is called an I embrocation. It is ap plied to the abdominal muscles, gently rubbed in by your own hand guided by your own mind. It makes the muscles pliant, they expand quite naturally and the effect upon the nerves is such that they ad just themselves to the process of expansion so that pain from this source is almost elimi nated. Women who use “Mother’s Friend” refer to the absence of morning sickness, they are relieved of a great many minor dis tresses, all apprehension disappears and those peculiar nervous “fidgets” no longer disturb the nights. It is well named “Mother's Friend.” Get a bottle today of any drug gist. Then at once write for a mo-:t enter taining and instructive book for all pro spec, live mothers.
