LITTLE NEW YEAR.
The Old. Old Year Roea out at the door.
But the little New Year comes in:
And to take the place of the squandered days
There’s a year just about to biffin.
He’s a dear little chap, is the small New Year.
And deep in his eyes of blue
Is the promise of all the joy that life
Is holding in store for you.
Health’s shining there—if you’ll cross your heart
To live with wise discretion —
And then follows Sleep, and then follows Play,
And Love joins the dim procession.
And trailing behind are the ghosts of the years
That wait on the Grown-Up Shore.
And haunt all the paths of After-a-While
That lead to the Future’s door.
The New Year stands on his tippy-toes
And puts in your two brown hands
The reins of his steeds, I CAN and 1 WILL,
To drive through the deep Life sands.
And hard he stares with his wistful eyes.
Wondering if you’ll get through—
And hoping that all of the dreams he’s dreamed
Will have the good taste to come true.

Wise Old Words.
In December, 1731!, Benjamin Frank
lin commenced tile publication of
“Poor Richard’s Almanack,” price 5
pence. It attained popularity. Three
editions were sold within the month of
its appearance. The average sale for
twenty-five years was 10,000 a year.
He was sometimes obliged to put it to
press in October in order to get a sup
ply of copies to the remote colonies
by the beginning of the year. It was
translated into nearly every written
language. It contains fun as well as
wisdom. Here are some of the aphor
isms:
Industry need not wish.
Deny self for self's sake.
There is no little enemy.
Let thy discontents be thy secrets.
God heals: the doctor takes the fees.
Fly pleasures and they’ll follow you.
The Bleeping fox catches no poultry.
Fish or visitors smell in three dayB.
Diligence is the mother of good luck.
Necessity never made a good bar
gain.
Anew truth is a truth; an old error
is an error.
He that can have patience can hhve
what he will.
' Three may keep a secret—if two of
them are dead.
Wealth is not his that has it, but his
that enjoys it.
Let thy maid servant be faithful,
strong and homely.
Hast thou virtue, acquire also the
graces and beautieB of virtue.
The noblest question in the world is.
What good may I do in it?
There are three faithful friends—an
old wife, an old dog and ready money.
Who has deceived thee so oft as thy
self?
Don’t throw stones at thy neighbors’
windows if thine own windows sre glass.
Good wives and good plantations are
made by good husbands.
Keep your eyes wide open before
marriage; half shut afterwards.
As we must account for every idle
word, so we must for every idle silence.
Search others for their virtues; thy
self for thy vices.
Happy that nation, fortunate that
age, whose history is not diverting.
To bear other peoples’ n111ictiona
everyone has courage enough and to
spare.
Tricks and treachery are the prac
tices of fools that have not wit enough
to be honest.
Sloth, like rust, consumes faster than
labor wears, while the used keys are
always bright.
Let thy child’s first lesson be obe
dience, anil the second will be what
thou wilt.
Let no pleasure tempt thee, no profit
allure thee, no ambition corrupt thee,
no example sway thee, no persuasion
move thee, to do anything which thou
knowest to be evil.
Bad Habits.
Those who breakfast at eight o’clock
or later, luneh at twelve and have din
ner at six are almost certain to be
troubled with indigestion. They do not
allow time for one meal to digest be
fore taking another. Not Icsb than
five hours should elapse between meals.
If you are troubled with indigestion
correct your habits and take Chamber
lain’s Tablets, and you may reasonably
hope for a quick recovery. These tab
lets strengthen the stomach and enable
it to perform its functions naturally.
Obtainable everywhere.
A hero is a man who tells the truth
to his wife, but a clever man is the one
who doesn’t.
Whenever You Need a General Tonic
Take Grove’s
The Old Standard Grove’s Tasteless
chill Tonic is equally valuable as a
General Tonic because it contains the
well known tonic properties of QUININE
and IRON. It acts on the Liver, Drives
out Malaria, Enriches the Blood and
Builds up the Whole System. 50 cents.

Put Loafer-Land to Work.
The ProffresBlve Farmer.
Not only must the cultivated acres
be made rich, but the idle acres too.
The acres that wo pay taxes on and
from which we get no returns, must be
put to work. Government reports show
that in the South two acres out of every
five in farms are unimproved. To get
these to work is one of our problems;
but if we cannot put them to work,
then good business management de
mands that we sell at least part of
them and use the money to improve
the remainder. An idle man, an idle
cow or an idle acre is a poor sort of
thing to have around.
Every stump left in the fields means
idle lands, more difficulty in cultivation,
less opportunity to use labor-saving
machinery. A stumpy farm is an in
efficient farm. We well know that for
most farmers it is quite out of the
question to remove ull the stumps at
once; hut once removed, a stomp is
gone for good, and the job is one we
should keep plugging at until it is done.
Then this winter, if our lund is roll
ing, let’s build some nice, broad ter
races, 16 to 20 feet wide, on which
crops will grow, instead of the little
razor-back terraces that waste land and
provide a nursery for mean weeds and
bugs. Likewise, let’s go ufter the
patches of briers and bushes, the
clumps of saplings, that make ugly
patches in our fields. Let’s open lup
the landscape and fnrm real fields, in
stead of doing a patch-work business.
The newly rich couple went at once
to New York with two friends, sayB
The Argonaut. They visited one of
the noted cafeB for lunch. As they
seated themselves MrB. Parvenu whis
pered to her husband:
“Ask for a menu, Jack.”
Parvenu puffed out his chest and
chuckled. “One menu only? ’ he said.
"One menu for four? No, no; I’ll do
the thing well, now I’ve started it.
Here, wuiter, four menus—fresh ones,
mind you, and Bee that they are not
overdone.”
Drives Out Malaria, Builds Up System
The Old Standard aencrol strengthening tonic,
GROVE'S TASTELESS chill TONIC, drivei out
Malaria, enriches the blood, amt builds up the ays-
tern. A true tonic. Eor adults and children. 50c.
We don’t know who Roger Coot is,
hut we assume that he desires to be
fashionable in attire, particularly in
respect to his necktie. At any rate,
he intimates as much in a note written
to “Dartmouth Jack O’ Lantern,” in
which he asks; “Will you kindly pub
lish directions for tying a bow tie?”
And here is what The Jack O’ Lantern
fashion editor tells him: "Well, Roger,
you hold the tie in your left hand and
your collar in the other. Slip your
neck in the collar, and cross the left-
hand end of the tie over the right with
the left hand, steadying the right end
with the other hand. Then drop both
hands, catching the left with the right
and the other with the other. Reverse
hands, and pick up the loose ends with
the nearest hand. Pull this end through
the loop with your unengaged hand,
and squeeze. You will find the knot
all tied, and all you have to do is to
untangle your hands.”
The Empress of Russia is said to be
the finest royal singer in the world.
FEEL LIKE "GIVING UP?
Many Newnan People on the Verge
of Collapse.
A had hack makes you miserable all
the time—
Lame every morning; sore all day.
It hurts to stoop—it hurts to straigh-
cn.
What with headache, dizzy spells,
urinary weakness.
No wonder people are discouraged.
Who do not know the kidneys may
be the cause of it all.
Give the weakened kidneys needful
help.
Use a tested and proven kidney rem
edy.
None endorsed like Doan.s Kidney
Pills.
Mrs. M. Tompkins, 43 W. Washing
ton street, Newnan, Ua., says; "The
worst trouble I had was a dull ache in
the small of my back. I tired easily,
especially in the morning. I had fre
quent headuches, little objects floated
before my eyes and at times 1 became
dizzy. Colds settled on my kidneys,
making my back worse. I used Doan's
Kidney Pills,- procured at Murray’s
Drug & Book Co., and they soon re
lieved the pains in my back and the
other symptoms of kidney trouble dis
appeared.
Price 50c, Ht all dealers. Don’t sim
ply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s
Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs.
Tompkins had. Foster-Milburn Co.,

Spring Tailoring Opening
Friday, Saturday, Monday, Tuesday,
A complete showing of the new spring and summer styles in fine custom-tailoring—smart fabrics-
new models—exhibited here for your convenience by a representative of the great house of
SCHLOSS BROS. & QO.
BALTIMORE n«n «/rw vnnif
AND NEW YORK
THE FASHIONABLE METROPOLITAN TAILORS
This semi-annual tailoring opening of ours has come to be a big event among the well-dressed men of this community. And no wonder;—it is an event and an
opportunity worth taking advantage of. This is why: Style la the essential of life—to be In fashion la as Important as food.
Men and young men have neither the time nor opportunity to study the styles or changes of fashion—they don’t have to—the style leaders do that for them—
the same as the lawyer the law, and the doctor the progress of medicine. To be in fashion see that your clothes bear the SCHLOSS LABEL—that’s all.
Everyone knows there’s a vast difference in “Made-to-Measure” clothes—it all depends on what really goes into them in the way of style, materials, skill, and
who makes them. Don’t buy a cheap, ordinary suit simply because it is “made-to-measure;”—if it is merely a covering you want, anything will do—but if you
want “to be in fashion” and dressed as a gentleman should be—then have your clothes made by these style-makers, who have 40 years’ reputation to safeguard
Prices No More Than the Ordinary
Because they have enormous Tailor Shops of their own, busy the year round, and because they buy their woolens, trimmings and linings in tremendous quantity, we
can save you a great deal in the purchase of fine Made-to-Measure Clothes. SCHLOSS BROS. & CO. make clothes for thousands of the best dressed men in
America; men in all walks of life; men who could pay any price for clothing. They prefer Schloss-Baltimore Tailoring because experience has shown it is better than
they could get elsewhere,—the money-saving is incidental. This is the modern way of getting really good Custom-Tailored Clothes for reasonable cost; just try it
once and see how satisfactory it is.
You. are especially invited to come and meet the Schloss Representative and see the New Styles—No obligation to buy.
