NEWNAN HERALD NEWNAN, FRIDAY, AUG. 13. ONE DOLLAR A YEAR IN ADVANCE. Realistic Acting. Detroit Free Prron. Edwin Forrest, a Riant in build and strength, was feared by the smaller people of the stage. (In one of him “Damon and Pythias" nights the pari of Lucullus was assigned to a member ef the Selwyn family who was ambi tious to shine in the reflected light of the great Forrest. The rehearsal went along calmly. “Here,” said Forrest to his LucuIIub, “I seize you. ” “Certainly, sir," was the reply of the youngster, who was every moment more and more delighted with his pros pect of personal contact with the god of his idolatry. “Here I put you off in the lirst en trance," continued the tragedian. "Quite right, sir,” chuckled Selwyn, who was much relieved hy his progress in the difficult one's favor. "You must give yourself to ms en tirely," next cautioned the master. “Never fear, sir,” Selwyn replied, with a confident smile. Tne eventful moment arrived duly. Selwyn was exquisitely dressed for the scene, and bis envious associates stood about admiring.;him. At the cue for his entrance he strode upon the stage in all his beauty of youth and togs, lie spoke his modest speech with as- sertivu emphasis. Suddenly the mighty Forrest leaped upon him with tigerish ferocity, seized him, shook him vio lently from side to side, released him only to pounce upon him again with in creasing ferocity, swabbed the stage with him, held him at arms’ length to a loud accompaniment of applause from the gallery, and at last flung him into the entrance whence he had emerged in pride, and left him a soiled, sore, perspiring, disheveled, bruised and dis- gustedlheap of humanity —what there was left of him. “Well, (Selwyn," observed one of the company, “I see you have been play ing'with; Forrest.’’ “No,’’Ji'groanod.phe poor wretch, struggling to get upon his feet; "For rest has been playing with me.” The Friend is Right “No Ticks, No Tick Fever.” Thr ProcrrRBlvp PArmcr. An Alabama reader writes as follows: “My friend says that every cow that has tick fever must get the fever from the bite of ticks. I contend that a cow turned into a pasture where cows are dying of tick fever iB likely to catch the fever from the infected cows without being bitten by ticks.” There is abundant evidence to prove that the friend is right: Under natural conditions, the tick must get on an ani mal and introduce(the disease-producing organisms, by biting or fastening them selves on that animal. Of course, the disease can be produced in a susceptible animal by artificially inoculating sue I an animal with the blood of an infected cow; but this does not occur naturally, and, therefore, in (practice, the state ment, “no ticks, no tick fever,” holds absolutely true. No uniter how long or closely u susceptible cow may asso ciate with a diseased one, unless ticks get on the susceptible cow and bite her there will! be no transmission of the disease. The germ, in nature, is only introduced}intojthe system of the sus ceptible cow through the bite of one kind of tick. This is so|well established and so generally known, that it is no longer necessary to cite the abundance of proof available. “Why don't you print all the news?” aaked Judge Johnson to-day. "I know a lot of things that your reporters nev er mention. 1 believe your reporters are rabbits.” The reporters stand cor rect'd and will try to do better. Here after they will make nn effort to print all of the news. For instance, Atchi son people should all know that before Judge Johnson moved to Atchison from Arkansas he had established an awful record. He was in the peniten tiary twice for stealing Arkansas razor- backs, was in the county jail tive times for beating his wife, and ir the village calaboose so frequently tb it the structure was referred to as his home. The merchants of that village would like to know the Judge’s whereabouts to-day, as he forgat to settle several accounts when he and his family moved out of the village one dark night. —At chison (Kan.)

DESIGN YOUR DRESS TO SUIT YOUR DOG Styles Change in Clothes and Ca nines Likewise. New York, Aug. 11. —Did it ever oc-1 cur to you that the width of your skirt and the line of your dress had anything to do with the faithful quadruped on the end of the leash? That he should expand and contract with the whim of fashion seems almost inhuman, hut such is the case. When skirts are tight, dogs are small; but, no sooner is fulness introduced in the mode, than society finds excuses for buying long- legged, lithe canines that suit their clothes. HOUNDS PURCHASED AT HIGH PRICES. To day is the day of the hound. Dis pose of your terrier und bull, and ac quire a greyhound or one of the guar- anteed-to-protect police dogs; that is, if you have an odd thousand or two which is not working overtime in the McCall Thu Slim Girl With Her Greyhound, Gowned In the Princeua Skirt. stock market. It is quite the smart thing to do. All the matrons on Long Island have forsaken bridge to bring up pups into perfect specimens of Ameri can doghood, and prices for special spe cies soar beyond the reach of th? mere lover of dogs. These canines, bred through generations to perfect obe dience and alert watchfulness, bring fabulous prices. One police dog, im ported from the other side, was recent ly purchased by a certain Miss Fisher, prominent here in Now York society, for the tidy sum of ten thousand dol lars; hut, then, this dog has passed the test of regular duty and is perfectly capable of running d .wn the huskiest of desperadoes. Dogs trained for home duties are much more modest in price. Oftentimes a barguin, especially in the younger dogs, can be picked up in three figures. THE S1.1M G1IU. CHOOSES HOUND. THE GREY POLICE DOGS A PROTECTION TO LONG ISLAND HOMES. Out on the large estates on Long Island, the greyhound and police dog are put to real service. Mrs. Butler Duncan, formerly Mrs. .Jas. Kernochan, was one of the first women of promi nence to bring the police dog to Amer ica. Her "Peter” was soon the pride of Long Island, for he "gummed” the game of a dark individual who had his mind fixed on Mrs. Duncan’s prize poultry. Now there are other Peters on other estates. These dogs are train ed to watch the autos, the buildings, the sheep; in fact, all the property of their owners. So invaluable have the dogs become that the owners bring them along when they change from the coun try. A young matron who has an estate just across country from the Duncans has a half-grown police dog for boon companion. FULL SKIRTED, SHE STRIDES BEHIND HER DOG. Wherever she goeB, the dog is with her—in the country, trotting serenely beside her horse, and in town, well knowing the dignity of his position, tugging at the end of a leather leash. This fad of taking your own dog out on the avenue is growing. I saw the wo man mentioned above the other day, striding along behind her husky Pat. She was smartly gowned, but there was Blighting Words. If the merely idle word is one day to be accounted for and judgr d, what of the untrue, impure, the profane, the malig nant and cruel words with which this earthly air is continually chargea? Only a movement of the lips, a moment’s stirring of the air, and all is silent, as though the word had never been spoken; yet a fellow-creature's happi ness has been blighted; a heavy Durden has been made still heavier to bear; a heart has been robb'.d of its guileleBS- ness and trust; the seed has been sown of a career that ends in ruin and death. Those words are not dead. Though they seem to be buried in ever lasting oblivion, yet when the judg ment throne is set and earth’s myriads are gathered together to be by their words justified or by their words con demned, they will return with solemn reverberating echo out of the darkness of the past, and fall with dismay and shame on the ears of those who spoke them. Strange as it may seem, the fatted catf generally gets what is coming to him before the black sheep confronts retribution. mhbbb mtmm oobm mm For Shoe and Har ness Repairing and NEW HARNESS go to A.

Many smart dogs are to be seen on the avenue. It is inter esting to note the divided favor be tween the greyhound and the police dog. Possibly, it is because tile greyhound is so picturesque that some women, especially the slender, choose this breed. One girl, who lives in the millionaires’ row on the upper end of Ffth Avenue, takes "Jeff” out for exercise herself when she is in town. I met her in front of the library the other morning. Whether she dressed with “Jeff” in mind, or whether her gray serge skirt was happenstance, 1 do not know; hut, certainly, the costume nnd the dog brought out the heat points in her own personality. Her dark blue eyes and blue-black hair were intensified by the contrast with the gray. The skirt was one of the new princess styles in gray serge, edged with blue and trimmed with braid. ThiB hsd the new suspender straps and was worn with a blouse of sheer, transparent Swiss, cut on simple lines, the fabric being its charm. The hit, too, was in the same shade of gray, one of the new taffeta turbans, with a tulle band to shade the eyes, that Jeanne Lanvin brought out in the crlv season. The whole tended toward long lines, and the greyhound fitted in ad mirably well with the costume. nothing that would attract attention other than the dog. Her dress was a linen princess in coat style, cut short enough to show her striped stockings, that matched her collar. Her hat had a dark blue satin brim fastened well on a straw crown, with the only trim ming a bead pin. The whole costume was simple. She was out to enjoy a walk with her dog, and her skirt was amply wide, thanks to fashion, so that she could keep up with the sturdy Pat rick. WHAT NEXT IN DOGS? It would seem, the wider and more extreme they have their skirts the larger is their dog. And fashion says that hoopskirts are returning. What, then, are we to expect in dogs? Fancy the Four Hundred with great Danes for pets! The toad lives from 10 to 40 years, and it can lay over a thousand eggs a year. It has lived two years without food, but cannot live under water. It never takes dead or motionless food. It captures and devours wasps, yellow- jackets, ants, beetles, worms, spiders, snails, bu is, grasshoppers, caterpillars, crickets, weevils, moths, etc. In 24 hours the toad consumes enough food to fill its stomach four times. A single toad wilt in three months devour over 10,000 insects.
