Which Shall It Be?
Hava you ever stopped to consider
how much in this world depends upon
position? The young people on the
danca floor must appear in a graceful
position; the lady who would be recog
nized in society must attain a fashion
able position; the political leader must
assume a commanding position; hut
none of these is more important than
tho position which a young man main
tains in the presence of his sweetheart.
If he is of the sort which only rattles
and prattles and talks sweet nonsense
and she is delighted wiili it, they will
be a very atupid couple indeed, and will
most likely spend rnucti lime in quar
reling before they have been wedded
many moons, if, on the contrary, he
appears dignified and respectful and
frequently introduces subjects of moral
interest and intellectual improvement,
and Hhe appears pleased with this tone
of Bcntiment or is aide to respond with
a brilliant quotation or an appropriate
remark, the result will bo a couple who
will shed around them a luster which
s'inll light the paths of others.
It was difficult for Margaret Blake
to decide which of her two suitors she
really loved. Both had admirable qual
ities, but tier parents were always re
minding her of the fact that Dick
Shune had already estahli died himself
as a prominent lawyer, while Frank
Wherne wus merely beginning to climb
the ladder before him in the medical
world.
Thu young lawyer became a constant
visitor at the Blake home. It wus un
derstood by their vigilant friends that
the match was made. As is usually the
case, this conclusion was reached with
out a word of acknowledgment from
either Margaret or Dick.
Frank Wherne was the only one
who hud nothing to say about the mat
ter. Every one was full of pity for
him. for it was believed that tho en
gagement of Margaret was a sad dis
appointment to him. However, he was
■wise enough not to Iohp sight of Mar
garet, and in spite of tho rumor he was
frequently at the Blake home.
One evening, as he and Margaret
were walking up the garden path to
her home, he was unable to keep silent
any longer. The moon was shining
through the trees and now and then
f»*ll on Margaret'h face, ho that it re
vealed the well molded features, the
pink and white complexion and the long,
silky lashes of her eyes.
"Margaret,” he cried, "will you al
low me to speak frankly to you for a
few minutes? It is rumored that you
favor Mr. Shane. Will you please tell
me whether or not you are engaged to
him?"
Margaret was silent, hut he spoke
on: "Ah, Margaret, 1 have been
striving hard to make myself worthy of
you. 1 realize that I am not yet on my
feet. I know that it will he some time
before 1 shall bo able to take the po
sition in society that Mr. Shane now
occupies, but with perseverance and a
little encouragement from you, any
thing will be possible for me. Do you
not understand that a man must have
some incentive to make it worth while
to go on? You are my incentive. The
fact that you have always been so in
terested in my work and have always
said things which made me have faith
in myself is proof that we are meant
for each other. Congeniality is the
only rock on which marriage can be
based in order to make it successful.
Now you know how strong is my love
for you. If you will give me no defi
nite word of hope now, do relieve my
mind by saying you are not engaged to
the man with whose name society has
linked yours. ”
While Margaret had been quietly
considering which of the two men she
loved, it was true that Wherne had
nev. r mentioned the subject to iter.
She was, therefore, rather surprised at
hi-* sudden declaration of love. She

quietly assured him that she was not
engaged to Mr. Shane, nor to anyone
else. She begged him to leave her
alone for a week and then come back
for her answer. She must have time
to consider the momentous question.
Margaret did more serious thinking
during the following seven days than
she had ever done before Bring of a
practical mind, Hhe studied the propo
sal from all sides. She even took a
pencil and a piece of paper to figure
out the good and had qualities of the
two men who had so recently proposed
to her. The fact Wherne had acknowl
edged her ability to be of help to him
scored one more point for him than for
his rival. Every woman likes to feel
that she can be of some material help
to the man to whom Hhe gives her heart
and hand, especially when that man is
big enough to come right out and tell
her so. Therefore, one wuek from the
night on which the young doctor pro
posed he was given the answer which
makes a man feel as though he had
reached the crowning point of his .am
bition.
Election ol Judges by Judges.
Savannah Press.
We have doubts that the bill to re
quire Judges of the Supreme Court to
elect Judges of the Superior Court con
tains wisdom.
It may be said for the plan that it is
about the only one which Georgia has
not tried and for that reason it deserves
a turn. If it becomes law there is the
danger of building up a political ma
chine of the judiciary, whereas now
the danger seems to be that the
Judges are encouraged to become man
pleasers and demagogues. Georgia has
never settled down to satisfaction with
herBystemof appointing Judges. Near
ly everything has been tried, and every
aystem has its imperfections. The
question seems to be whether we had
not better got along with our present
imperfections, which after awhile are
likely to diminish, than to rip out again
and sew things up wrong once more.
To he sure, the people are not expert
judges of their Judges, but there is
more Hound discernment in the people
than our political cliques like to admit.
They may probably never learn
whether their Judges were wise in
rightly dividing the word of the law,
but they are very apt to hit it olf with
n decision in favor of well balanced
justice, rather more so, we are inclined
to believe, than the court higher up
which is more likely to have its judg
ment veiled by selfish motives.
Besides, the people grow up to re-
aponsilities to which they become ac
customed. If we give up our present
plan of electing Judges by the people
we may have to return to it after a few
years and begin over again with the
waste of years whicli we have already
invested in it. We would prefer to Bee
the present system adhered to for some
time yet, us wo don’t believe we are
going to get any improvement in our
judiciary under the proposed change.
All systems must have their drawbacks
and hindrances and we don’t believe
the plan of putting the election of Su
perior Court Judges in the hands of
those who occupy the bench of the Su
preme Court is likely to simplify the
the political features of the Judgeships.
It looks to us like an experiment out of
which a powerful political machine will
be likely to develop.
Why Brother and Sister Left Home.
In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside, published at Springfield, Ohio,
a contributor writes an interesting ar
ticle showing how motor cars atTect
farm life. He tells the story of a pros
perous farmer in eastern Kansas who
had two children—a son and adaughter
— both of whom left home and took un
important positions in tho cities. Their
reasons for leaving home are presented
in the two following letters which they
wrote to their mother:
‘‘‘1 wanted pretty things, mother,’
wrote Mary, a year after she had quit
the old farm home. ‘Everything was
ao old-fashioned at home, and you and
father were so busy you wouldn't have
the house fixed any different.’ "
"Jim's letter is a little longer and
more detailed:
“ ‘The other boys
get out around the
drive to Ottawa now
a good team or in
know as well as 1 do, mother, that
Mary and I had no such chance. The
trouble was, it was all work and money
getting. When crops were good father
got more stock or more machinery.
He didn't get the things we craved —
the things that would have kept us on
the farm. I can remember when Beet
Jackson's father bought an auto. I
would make fun of it to-day. It wasn't
much more than a gasoline stove set on
a truck, but it ran and took the whole
family ah over the country—to picnics,
for pleasure rides on hot nights, to
town on busiress, or for a lark. 1 used
te stand and watch it go by when I
was plowing or working around, and
while 1 guess it was only a "one-lun
ger," and wheezed and smelled fright
fully, it looked awful good to me then.
But would father hear of us getting
one? Not on vour life.’ "

“Pete” Walts at His Master’s Tomb.
Pete is only a dog. Just a collie dog,
with the gentle, expressive eyeB of
his kind, Hnd a good deal of gray about
his muzzle. Folks in Buckner, Mo., say
that they can notice the gray more the
last week or so, but they may be mis
taken in that.
Pete, being only a dog, is not ex
pected to know the depths of emotion
that persons feel. He is not supposed
to understand about death and sorrow
and utter loneliness, and that sort of
thing. He was a smart dog, folks said,
and had been a faithful-companion to
his master, William Hudspeth, who
lived on a farm near Buckner.
But when Mr. Hudspeth died several
weeks ago, every one forgot about
Pete. There were so many things to be
looked after that the grief-stricken
family left him to his own devices.
Some of those in the funeral procession
that wound up the road to the grave
yard on the hill remember seeing him
following along at the side of the road,
but he was gone when the crowd dis-
p irsed at the cemetery.
It had been a strange day for Pete.
Early in the morning the people who
had come to the house routed hitn out of
his place in front of the door, where he
had lain during the two weeks his mas
ter waB in bed. There were many
things which, being a dog, he did not
understand. There were all those peo
ple who stood around and talked low,
and there were lots of flowers, and more
buggies tied along the fence than he
had ever seen around the hitching racks
in Buckner.
They wouldn’t let him in where his
master was, not even in the house, al
though he tried to get in several times.
And then finally they brought his mas
ter out in a big box and everybody went
down the road with him. Pie went
along, of course. Hadn't he gone to
town with him every afternoon for
years?
But they didn’t stop in town this time.
They went on across the railroad tracks
and up the rocky road. They went
slower up the hill, and Pete was glad of
it, for his legs were not as strong as
they had been before the hair around
his muzzle had turned white. The hard
road made his feet sore, too, if he tried
to go too far.
He stopped with the rest of them at
the place where the white stones stood
about in the grass and watched them
all go over to a big hole in the ground.
But his master wasn’t among them.
Perhaps he wasn’t in the big box, after
all. He’d probably stopped in town as
he always did, and Pete, foolish dog,
had not noticed it. It was much more
likely than that his master was in that
box they were putting down in the hole.
So Pete started back. The loungers
on the bank steps called him as he
Btopped there, but he paid no attention
to them. They watched him trot on
down the street and stop for a moment
at each store his master had used to
visit. Then he disappeared on the road
to the farm.
The family, coming back to town, met
Pete, limping a little now. They caught
him and took him in with them. A few
minutes after they got back home he
was gone.
The sexton, working late that night,
heard a whining among the graves.
When he came to the newest one he
found Pete. The dog lay on the grass
at the side of the headstone and would
not come away when the sexton left.
The next morning he was still there.
Since then Pete has never missed a
day at the graveyard. When he turns
in from the road he goes straight for
the Hudspeth lot and stays there for
hours at a time. The sexton has no
ticed his restlessness. He hunts around
among the stones only to return to his
master’s grave. Finally he goes back
to town and makes once more the round
of the stores.
Diarrluea Quickly Cured.
"About two years ago I had a severe
attack of diarrhoea which lasted for
over a week,” writes W. C. Jones,
Buford, N. D. "I became so weak
that I could not stand upright. A
druggist recommended Chamberlain’s
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
The first dose relieved me and within
two days 1 was as well as ever.” Ob
tainable everywhere.
It often turns out in after years that
the faint heart which failed to win the
fair lady was something of a blessing
in disguise.
A STRANGE CASE
Right Here in Georgia.
Atlanta, Ga.—"I found Dr. Tierce's
advice most satisfactory in rjuite
a peculiar train of circumstances. Soon
after arising in the morning a peculiar
feeling would begin at my stomach,
which seemed to swell, everything
would become dark and I would faint
dead away. When I became conscious,
vomiting would set iu and very large
beads of perspiration would cover my
entire l>ody and would wet my clothes
through and through, also had trouble
peculiar to women. Insufficient sleep
also retarded my gain. My blood, no
doubt, was poisoned by my being
badly constipated. Tbe constipation
was relieved, however, by the 1 Pleasant
Pellets ’ and, wonderful to say, Doctor
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery en
tirely cured my case of unusual health.
The trouble never returned.”—Mrs. D.
B. Golden, 213 Cooledge Place,
Atlanta, Georgia.
An imitation of nature's method of
replacing waste of tissue, enriching im
poverished blood and increasing nerve
force is when you take an alterative ex
tract of herbs and roots made with pure
glycerine, without the use of alcohol,
like Doctor Pierce’s Golden Medical
Discovery. This vegetable medicine
coaxes the digestive functions and helps
in the assimilation of focal, or rather
takes from the food just the nutriment
the blood requires.
Pure blood is essential to good
health. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical
Discovery not only cleanses the blood
of impurities, but it increases the
activity of the blood-making glands,
aud enriches the body with an
abundant supply of pure, rich blood.
It thus cures scrofula, eczema, erysip
elas, boils, pintples and other eruptions
that mar aud scar the skin.

Is Your Home a Burden ?
When a woman carries her home on
her shoulders as Atlas did the world she
is battling with one of the opposing
forces which fate stations at every
corner to thwart her designs. The ideal
home is a haven of rest for all its in
mates, the housekeeper included. Every
woman knows to just what extent her
home is a burden. When her only di
versity is a variation of tasks the joy of
home-making is on the wane. A thorn
is growing out of the rose of home de
votion that will some day prick her fin
gers and perhaps her tender heart. The
day will come when her children will
think her too far behind the times to
comprehend their problems.
The woman who keeps her children’s
respect and confidence is not often one
who is completely absorbed in house
keeping duties. The up-to-date mother
is less sacrificing than tho mother of a
few years ago, and her children are
less unselfish. She takes some time to
devote to her own’ personal improve
ment and the machinery of her house
hold is treated to a little wholesome
neglect. The children when necessary,
lend a helping hand to tbe benefit of
all concerned.
NEWNAN’S REPLY
Newnan Accepts the Evidence and
Many Newnan Readers Will
Profit by it.
Which is the more weighty proof—
a few words from a Newnan resident,
whom we know and respect, or vol
umes from strangers in distant towns?
There can be only one reply.
Mrs. W. H. Sewell, Spence Ave.,
Newnan, says: "I suffered so from my
back that I could not get up when I
was down. I was always in misery
and was so sore and lame that I could
not do any work. I got up in the morn
ing feeling more tired than the night
before. Headaches nearly drove me
mad and the kidney secretions caused
me much annoyance. I used Doan’s
Kidney Pills, procured from J. F. Lee
Drug Co., and they relieved the pains
in my back and put mv kidneys in good
order. When I have any signs of kid
ney trouble now, I always use Doan’s
Kidney Pills, and they relieve me."

"Papa,” said the sweet girl affec
tionately, "you wouldn’t like me to go
away and leave you, would you?”
"Indeed I would not, my dearest,”
said the wealthy father fondly.
"I’m so glad," sighed the girl.
"Now I’ll marry Mr. Poorchap. He’s
willing to live here.”
