Better Than Last FalL Maeon Telegraph. There is much speculation in the East and West as to the present status of the South, and what it will be this fall. The South received a black eye last full, and Rained nothing from the buy-a-bale movement. The impression wus created throughout tho country that the South wus bnnkrupt. And yet tho South has weathered the storm aa well sh any of them, if not a great deal better. The effort to get the farmers of tho South to reduce their cotton acroago and raise more foodstuffs has borne fruit. A trip through any part of Georgia and talks with the farmers will prove beyond a doubt that thero is more corn, hogs, beef, peas and po tatoes than ever before, and less cot ton than for a great many years. A big wheat nnd oat crop have already been harveated. Another encouraging feature ahout the South ia the fact that every man, woman and child, especially on the farmH, has lived on leas and owes less than a year ago. I.ast year at this time every farmer had a crop of cot ton which ho hud produced on a pros pective selling Imaia of 111 centB per pound. It was expensively raised cot ton, and these same farmers had very little to eat at home. They expected to sell their cotton for 111 cents and buy their feed - So that when August 1 came around and the emperor of Ger many ordered everybody in the world on short, rations there wsh a panic. We knew nut what to do nor what to ex pect. Now wo have settled down to war conditions, and arc accustomed to them. We h ve got our stride. We are some what conservative, hut taking nourish ment just the same. Wo have a cot ton crop which some people think will amount to twelve million hales, against sixteen and a half million laHt year. Tho other four and a half million bales of cotton have been put m other crops. We raised tho cotton to sell for war prices. We have raised something to eat, so that if wo don't gotsatisfactory offers for tho cotton, wo won't bo quite as hard pressed to soil as wus the cast) last year. We have tho best corn crop in the history of tho State. It is the best looking corn, and more of it, than has ever been seen bofore. We have raised enough cotton to give the United States the necessary foreign credit, so as to help out Wall street and the tinancial interests and manufacturers, hut we have in addi tion the necessary food to keep us go ing The South has long been re garded as the nation’s greatest asset as a section. The climate of tho South is such that people can livo out of doors if necessary for twelve months in the year, and can grow crops and produce tho entire time. She is so richly blessed that our people have never felt the necessity for economy and the utmost thrift. So that when the ne cessity does arise, the people of tho out side world will he amused at how quickly the South settles firmly on her feet. The war panic is going to convince the Southern people that it is foolishness to Hell all of their cotton at one time, taking any price offered. We are bound to have a warehousing system to grow out of this, and diversified farm ing is another advantageous develop ment. We have never had markets for anything but cotton. Necessity is forcing us to provide sale for other pro ducts, and hereafter the South will be even mere of an asset to the United States and more dependable than ever. The difference between this year and last is that we grew lit cent cotton and sold it for 6 cents; this year we have grown 8-cent cotton and will sell it for 9 cents or 10 cents. Some men think they are liberal be cause they tell what they would like to d>< with money that they never expect to get. Traveling Man's Experience. In summer of 1888 1 had a very severe attack of cholera morbus. Two physi cians worked over me from four a. m. to 6 p. m. without giving me any re lief and then teld me they did not ex- peoi nte to live: that 1 had best tele graph for my family. Instead of doing ho, i gave the hotel |wrter fifty cents and told him to buy me a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic. Cholera and Diar rhoea Remedy, and take no substitute, I took a double doBe according to di- recions and went to sleep after tie Second dose. At five o’clock the next m-rmng I was called by my order and too 1 h train for my next stopping point, a w*'i| man but feeling rather shaky fr.-m the severity of the attack," wru.« H. W. Ireland, Louisville, Ky. Obtainable everywhere. “To Plough and Hoo.” Thi- National Field. A recent Governor of Georgia com muted the sentence of a man, knowing that his action would bring down upon him the wrath of a majority of the peo ple of his Stat". A newspaper quoten him as saying that he could afford to "go into obscurity; that he was able to plough and to hoe." Of course, that wan all buncombe, as his family is rich, and he will not need to work hard to live; hut that phrase expresses a state of mind that is far too common. “To plough and to hoe” is synony mous in the minds of far too many peo ple with the hardest of drudgery and the lowest of human occupations. Here is a man who was then Governor of a State, and who had no more sense than to betray the fact that he Bhared in this opinion of fools. Agriculture was the very beginning of civilization, as it is still the moat use ful of human occupations. What would become of the world if men refused to plough and to hoe? Cincinnatus, the great Roman dictator, left his plow in the furrow to take up the government, and after he had saved the nation re turned to his plow with added zest. David, King of Israel, and Psalmist for all mankind, was a shepherd. Moses, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, were ull men who lived by flockB and herds and the produce of the land. Washington, Madison, Jefferson, Lin coln, Jackson, Garfield, among the Presidents, were lovers of the farm, and on the farm some of them endured heroic labor. Washington said; “Agriculture is the moat ancient, the most useful, and most honorable occupation of man." Lan guage could be no stronger than that statement. And yet thero has grown up a feeling in this country that this great and old and honorable occupation is inferior in dignity and worth to the Belling of rib bons and laces, to running soft drink stands, or moving picture shows, to lending money at usurious rates, or dealing in junk. Out upon such wooden hi ads and long ears. The peoplo who entertain such folly are not fit to plough or to hoo, for that requires a sturdiness beyond the comprehension of these flabby souls. And then, too, farmers prefer for farm work either horses or mules to jackasses which bray mightily, and have mighty opinions of tho music they make, when in fact they truly exemplify the old Latin motto: “Voice and nothing else. ” Fifteen of our Presidents were sons of farmers. Don’t forget that. ■ » ■ ——- Expecting Too Much. A housekeeper’s duties are many and oxhausting, and, under the best of cir cumstances, many times trying. This is especially bo of the nervous, delicate womun. While there are essential du ties to be performed in all households, a great deal of the trouble arises from expecting too much from others. A woman who wishes to make her home a haven of rest for husband and children must have sympathy and charity for the shortcomings of every member of the household. One may be untidy—a very trying fault, one must admit—an other indolent, while a third has an ir- ritahlo temper. Hut is it any use to fret over these daily trials? Far better to throw the mantle of charity over faults that cannc. be remedied, and learn not to expect too much. While extending leniency toward others, it is well to do the same toward ourself and not exhaust body snd mind endeavoring to do the work of two or three persons. How many women lose all the pleasure of home life in this never-ending effort! Beauty Mors than Skin Deep. A beautiful woman always has good digestion.

He was born Nov. 8, 1848, and died July 1, 1915. Though his life on earth is ended, he still lives in the hearts of those who loved him. He became a member of the M. E Church at the age of 24; later joined the Baptist church, and was a faithful, consecrated member, ready to help the cause in every way he could. His homo was always open to his pas tor and fellow members. Being a man of deep convictions, he stood first and last for the right, and in his death the church has lost one of its best mem bers. Earth is poorer, but heaven richer, by his going. He now waits to welcome loved ones in the mansions of rest. Mr. Stephens was buried at Bethel cemetery, a great concourse of sorrow ing friends attending the funeral, which was conducted by his pastor, Rev. T. M. Hammond, assisted fay Rev. F. J. Amis, of Welcome, each paying a glow ing tribute to our deceased brother. Besides his wife, deceased is survived by eight children — Mesdames Lewis Pritchett, Will Furlow, GuBSie WalBton, William, Tom, Frank, Marvin and Char lie Stephens. Bereaved ones, look up and think of him there, for the Great Creator is looking down on you in grief from the glorious heights of heaven. What a blessed thought that these separations are not final, and that, with crowns on our heads and harps in our handH, we shall meet again and sing together on that golden shore, where there shall be no sickness, nor sorrow, nor death. A Friend. TIRED OUT, NERVOUS, SLEEPLESS. Augusta, Ga.—"1 am happy to say that Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has proven of the best of benefit for my ill health. My entire consti tution was very much run down, besides trouble peculiar to wotn- , en. I was com- 1 pletcly tired - out the whole time, ambitionless, did not care to do anything aliout the house, and could not stand any excitement. My un strung nerves also made me lie awake at night.

Through the mysterious ruling of an all-wise providence one of our loved ones is gone. It was on July 1, 1915, that God saw fit to remove and trans plant her within the gates of Paradise. The loss of such a devoted member is irreparable. Never to see her enter our church again; never to hear a word spoken by her in the loving talks she often had with us; never to hear those beautiful songs she loved so well to sing, is almost beyond our strength to bear; yet we know “the sweetest ties are often severed.” She has left a va cant place in tho church, in the Sunday- school, in tjie Woman’s Missionary So ciety—yes, all around—which we know no one can fill; hut we are assured that whatsoever is, is best. ’Twas the work of God, who doeth all things for the best. Therefore, be it resolved — 1. That while wo have sustained an irreparable loss, yet we bow in humble submission to the Father’s will, and dhall ever cherish her memory. 2. That we extend to the bereaved husband and lonely children, and to the father, sisters and brothers, our warm est sympathy. May our Father bind up up the broken hearts of those bereft, and uuide them through life, that they may meet their dear one in that beauti ful home beyond. 3. We ask that these resolutions be published in the Senoia Enterprise-Ga zette and the Newnan Herald, and that a copy be furnished the family. Miss Clevie Stewart, Mrs. J. M. Todd, W. E. Hardin, Committee. Frank was terribly scared by a sud den thunder storm, and his mother was trying to soothe him. “Don’t be afraid, darling,” she said; “God sends the storm to clear the air, and water the flowers, and make it cooler. Now, don’t cry. It won’t hurt you, and everything will be better when it’s over.” “You can’t fool me again, mamma,” he sobbed. “That’s just what you said when you took me to the dentist’s last week.’’ “Every one in our family is some kind of an animal,” said Jimmie tb the amazed preacher. “Why. you shouldn’t say that!” the good man exclaimed. “Well,” said Jimmie, “mother's a dear, the baby ia mother’s little lamb, I’m the kid, and dad’s the goat.” Obituary. On May 12, 1915, God saw fit to take our dear sister, Mrs. J. S. Bridges. She was a kind and affectionate wife, and a loving mother. She was always ready and willing to help others in their troubles—ready to cheer the family and make the home bright and happy, and we know they will miss her; but weep not for her, dear ones, for we know she is at rest. Let us so live that we may meet her again, to part no more. The remains were interred at Mace donia cemetery. She was a member of New Lebanon church, and faithful in attendance as long as she had health. It seems hard to give our loved one up. but God knows best. She was so kind and good that everyone who knew her loved her. She left a husband and six children to mourn her death. Weep not for her, dear ones, for we know she has gone to a better world. May the Father of mercy comfort the bereaved ones, and after the toils and triads of life are over may they meet their loved one in a better land. Sargent, Ga., July 15th. Sister. ’Twas a widow's voice that said, “The nights seem so long.” Her hus band is dead and she lives alone. The nights are long and the way to her seems as black as the mourning dress which envelops her form. Have you been to visit her, to shorten the long nights by your cheerful presence and smooth the path her feet must tread? Human sympathy and smiles make the hours pass swiftly and reflect sunlight. Many a heart is hungering for such, and it costs you so little to give it. The woman in black appeals peculiarly to me. Loneliness is a heavy cross to bear, and sorrow enhances the load. It is a relief sometimes to talk. The heart almost breaks and if there are listening ears about you into which you can pour out your troubles and a soul that knows how to cheer, how to talk to you, then you have a safety-valve that lightens the load vou are carrying and makes brighter the way. —Meriwether Viidi- cator.
