I stood upon the deck of a great stf-anl* er. There was no land in sight. We were in the center of a great circle. Everywhere the vast conclaved dome of. blue met the horizon of water. N.o mat- [ter where we were, day after day, that .great circle met the eye. It seemed a {type of the endless circle of eternity. I saw the sun sweep with, his chariot of fire across the vast blue dome and touch the sea. From his golden shield crim son lightning pierced the clouds and he cradled himself upon a thousand fiery wave-wings and quivered and hung, burn ing and glowing, upon the sea; and the sen, burning, drank all his glow; then threw the veil of an infinite splendor over the pale, glowing god. Above the vermilion horizon the cloud- island of sundown stood empurpled and transfigured; gradually the purple and red grew paler, and suddenly—aye, in the twinkling of an eye—the orb of life and light sank into the sea and chilly darkness wrapped the world in night. This seemed the awful typo of death;' but I saw him rise again. The glorious god of life and light again flung his red flame upon the swelling sea; and, as if to strengthen the faith of the witnesses and lookers on of the grand resurrection, he again performed the old, old miracle of turning water into wine. Rising still higher, he bathed the sea and sky in his own. radiant apd immortal light. The sun sots nnd rises. The stars set beneath tho horizon, but they rise again. A thousand suus and spheres in the ma jestic harmony of tho universe, rolling on burning wheels, continue in thoir celestial dance. Wheeling into infinite space tho majestic processlou Of God’s created lifo disappear in their ondloss cycles; but they reappear again. Now lovo nnd life thrill from tho spheres ns tho dewdrops trickle from tho clouds nnd embrace Na ture, as tho cool night does the earth. Throe, yoars ngd I was in Switzerland, dud, standing in the vale of Chamouni before sunrise, I gazed for tho first time upon- the majestic monarch of the Al pine range, Mont Blanc. So. lofty did it lift its awful dome of ico and snow that the morning stnr seemed to hang like a jewel upon its snowy plume. 1 saw the rising sun bathe his brow in purple nnd in gold, and his rays, falling upon the million facets of this giant jagged glacier, seemed a veritable explosion of jewels. I gazed until my diluting soul, enrapt, transfused into the mighty vis ion, seemed lifted to heaven; and the un bidden question trombled upon my quiv ering lips, “Oh! thy kingly spirit, throned among tho hills, who sank thy sunless pillars deep in earth? Who filled thy {face with rosy light? Who mado yon ice-fields tlmt tremble on thy shaggy shoots down in its fearful, maddening plunge to the valley at thy feet?” The answer thunders, * * God 1 ’ ’ God is everywhere, His face is writ ten all over Nature; -unerring design is stamps over all His wondrous works. Let us hope and believe that our departed brothers have taken /their place in that vast heavenly circle of -light and life— a circle which will burn and blaze with unextinguishable flame; and when thoir names are edllled in the grand lodge above they will answer, “Here at rest.” At rest, where their lights will ever burn in a glorious immortality—and where they will over sing praises and hosannuhs around the eternal throne of the * * Grand Exalted Ruler of the Universe.’’ ’ Two men got into a fight in front of the bank today,” said a man at tho family ton table, “and I tell you it looked pretty bad for one of them. The bigger one Seized a huge stick and bran dished it. I felt that he was going to knock the other’s brains out, and I jump ed in, between them. ’ ’ The family had listened with rapt at tention, and ns he paused in his narra tive the young heir, whose respect for his father's bravery is immeasurable, proudly remarked: f He couldn’t knock any brains out of you, could he, father? o ■—- Beauty is only skin deep—and some of the prettiest girls haven’t much -- . - - ,. A BILLION DOLLAR STATE. Georgia produced in 1019 crbpa worth approximately $025,000,000 and sold nni- mnl products valued nt $125,000,000. Thus the total soil and animal produc tion of the Stnto reached tha groat' sum of $750,006,000. The' cotton boll weevil cost us $40,000,000, tho corn woevil $15,- 000,000, nnd our crop nnd animal waste amounted to $100,000,000. Add to this our annual soil loss of approximately $.‘17,584,000 nnd tho $167,000,000 which we sent out of tho State for wheat, flour, butter, stock foods, nnd other commodi ties which wo could have easily produced at home, and wo begin to realize tho magnitude of our ngrlculoural losses, ac tual and potoiltinl. Georgia is rapidly growing into a bil lion dollar Stnto. In comparison with the other States wo stand sixth in crop pro duction nnd seventeenth in animal pro duction. Some of these times Georgia will reach tho top. Our goal of a bil lion dollar Stnto mny bo reached within a year if wo will only tako the necessary steps to reduce] our crop nnd livestock Iosbos, produce more of our food crops, and increase tho production per aero by bettor preparation of tho land, proper fertilization, careful cultivation, rotation of crops, and bettor seed. Only one-third of Georgia’s land is now producing crops. Of tho 117,584,000 acres in tho Stnto approximately 12,208,017 acres are regarded as productive and 14,- 600,1190 acres ns unimproved. This leaves 10,680,687 acres of woodod, cut-over, or unimproved wild land. Thus wo see that Goorgia may easily become a two bil lion dollar State if the unimproved land is brought under tho plow, the wild hinds mado to yield a return, in forosts, nnd tho production of all our cultivated lands increased by tho application of scientific principles of. farming, AN UNIQUE METHOD OF ADVER TISING. Foster-Milburn Oo., .whoso product, Doan’s Kidney Pills, iB advertised in our. columns, is one of the oldest advertising firms in the United States. They began using tho daily and weekly newspapers 85 years ago, and have kept it up ovor sinco. This is one # of the strongest proofs of tho value of newspaper advertising. Twenty years ago Foster-Milburn Com pany conceived the idea of proving the. merit of their goods with local tOBtimo- niuls. It took thorn fiftoou years to col lect tho testimonials from every one of tho 3,500 United States towns in which they do this kind of advertising. It was a tremendous task, but they stqck to it until they succeeded, and tho rosult is that Doan’s Kidney Pills are one of the best advertised and best recommended k remedies in tho world. It wnB bedtime nnd tho children wore calling eagerly for tho usual evening story. Two books lay on tho tablo—one Btories from tho blblo; the other Bar- mini’s talos of wild animals capturod for his great show. ‘Which shall it bo, little ones--bible stories or Bornum’s stories?” Quickly came tho reply; “Oh! blblo stories; they nro so exciting. You nover know what God will do next.” Speedy Relief From Habitual _ Constipation Tlia livet is the largest end most Important organ in tho body, and when tho liver refuses to act, it cauaoa constipation, biliousness, headaches, indigestion, gas, sour stomach, bad breath, dysentery, diarrhoea, pains in back and under shoulder blades and under ribs on right side. These symp toms lead to colds, influensa or othen serious troubles unless corrected im mediately. An inactive liver places an extra burden on the kidneys, which over- taxcB them and causes the blood to absorb and carry into the system tba impurities that tho liver and kldneya have failed to eliminate. When you treat the liver alone, you treat only a third of your trouble, and that is why you have to taka purga tives every few nights. Calomel or other ordinary laxatives do not go far enough. If you would treat your kid neys and blood while treating the liver you would put your entire system in order and frequent purgative* would then be unnecessary. Dr. W. L. Hitchcock many years ago recognized these important facts, and after much study nnd research, compounded what is now known as Dr. Hitchcock’a Liver, Kidney and Blood Powders, three medicines com bined in ono. This was tHe Doctor’s stable remedy, that will not make you sick, and you may eat anything you like while taking it. » Got a large tin box from your drug gist or dealer for 25c, under his per sonal guarantee that it will give re lief, tono up tho liver, stimulate the kidneys to healthy action and thereby purify tho blood.

TRADE MARK, It'u a habit of Henry Ford to thoroughly try out and test -any product he manufactures before he puts it on the market. He personally must know it will do all he wants it to do before he will allow anybody else to buy it. For 35 years he worked on this Fordson Tractor. He kept buying land until he had some thing like eight thousand acres in order that he might get a great variety of soil conditions containing the plowing problems that meet the farmers of the world, and then the Fordson Tractor was put to work and made to take all sorts of practical tests for years before Mr. Ford put it on the market And, therefore, when it came on the market, it was right, it was reliable, it would do the work he said it would do. People have bought it, have tried it out, have tested it, and it has proven to be all that Mr. Ford claims it to be, and this is why that white farm Tractors have been on the American market more than twenty years and while three hundred thousand have been sold one hundred thousand of that three hundred thousand are Ford son Tractors, and yet the Fordson has only been on the market itwo years. It has sold rapidly because when one farmer bought one, he practically converted the neighborhood to the desirability and profit of the Fordson Tractor on the farm. The Fordson is made small, compact, flexible, dependable. It is made to be much more convenient to handle than a .It was made so that anybody of ordinary common sense could operate and take care of it We wanted to make it so that a mechanic-'would not have to be sold with every Tractor. It was made by a farmer for a farmer, and it has the endorsement of the farmers—the little farmer and the big farmer. Some farmers have one, some farmers have ten and fifteen, and one farmer we know has fifty-six. It works just as well in the West as it does in the East. It is just as flexible in the North as in the South. It is just as profitable in the wheat field as it is in the sugar and rice fields. It is just as flexible and useful on the fruit ranch as it is among the fields of oats and barley. It is just as useful and profi table in the lumber camp, railroad yard, coal mine, as it is in the oil fields or any other commercial line. But especially designed for the farmer, it is especially his necessity. ■ •■"’I Because it increases the production of every acre by enabling the farmer to cultivate his ground to better advantage than he can with mule or horse-power. It takes the sting and drudgery out of farm work. It is a great conserver of labor expense.. Oh, it has so many money-saving advantages that the farmer can’t do without it and be progressive and make money. So we ask every farmer to come in and let us tell him more about this Fordson Tractor. Let us make a demonstration for him on his own farm. Let us test it out to his soil conditions. Let’s show him. Don’t delay because there are only so many Fordson Tractors to come to this territory. Get your order in now, and remember that the Fordson after service is prompt and sure. We are sup plied with everything necessary to keep your Fordson going every day in the year. Come in and let’s talk it over.
