Smith, of Route 1, Springfield, Tenn. “My husband bought a bottle of Ziron, and I began taking it and began to pick up. I think it is a very good tonic for run-down people. My little boy was thin, and looked very pale and delicate. 1 gave him Ziron, and he mended up and is looking fine.” Sold |by druggists on a Money-Back Guarantee. Z j. 4 r Cot to the Bone!

Tho Reporter is’ about to oomo to tho conslusion that, nfter nil, tho women have got tho job of saving tho country from damnation. There are too ninny mon’ those days who don’t care whore tho country goOB, boeauso they are going there. And wo hope that cryptic statement may bo un derstood. It is our humble opinion that the old time Southern “cunnol,” with nil his mint julips and peculinr ideas of pef- Bonnl liberty, oxorcisod higher respect, for and did more to safeguard public mornlB and manners than does the aver age reform fanatic, or so-called “aris tocrat” of today, In those dnys civilization wns strength oned by tho cultivation of public dig nity and the proprieties. in tliCBO dnys, it seems , with “bone- dry” laws and Btrict reform regulations, the- average limn figures thnt self- restraint is unnecessary. Ho probably considers that tlioro are enough laws and regulations to keep tho world straight without any personal effort on his part. But we nro getting away from the- original proposition. Tho wonion tinvo got to save thtf country—and themselves. Wo moil liavo developed a slicll of philosophy ill which wo try to hide from 1 responsibility for some of tho ills of' society. Mention wild fashions; careidss manners, freedom of personal impulse 1 , or anything of the kind with reference to botli mon and women, and Mr. Aver age Man will give you a dozen ronsons wiiy the women are to blame. Tho sci ence of masculine defense arid tho phi losophy of man’s irresponsibility and helplessness have become habits to which any of us resort unconsciously when the subject is advanced. We heard a woman make ri speech in a convention the other day. It wan a gem of oratory, Several men had spoken before, which wsb unfortunate, because tlie contrast was such a reflection upon the men. Their speeches were’ pitiful by comparison. The woman spoke with greater dignity. Her words breathed of sincere idenls, and her sentences carried the thought somewhere. That gave us an idea. Como to think about it, mere man is on the decline. It is not simply that woman is waking up and taking her place in the affairs of the world. She has got to do it, judg ing by tho signs, for man is being dissi pated. And lie is getting things nil tan gled up by trying to excuse himself through false logic, in order to hold on. Woo is man,! Unless he jumps back to the higher ground of puro ideals and human responsibility, ho might as well step entirely down and out. This is woman’s chance. Indeed, woman needs a chance, and tho world needs for worpan to havo a chance in redeeming things. The girls of today need a chance. As it is, they almost haven’t got it. They are taught to.be frivolous from infancy on upward. “OhI” you say, .“but mothers are responsible for that. They raise them. ’ ’ Not so. Mothers merely get them started. It is true not so many mothers are strong enough to resist modern cus tom in the dnugliter’s early years, but when they do resist the effect is de stroyed by the standards in many schools and colleges which men construct, and by the influences of jazz tea-rooms, res taurants and club ball-rooms which arc thought to be monuments to tlie genius of modern man—ail of them with the single objective of popularity f?nd profit, with little thought for culture and re finement. The girl who comes through these days into real, noble womanhood, with all of her good qualities and faculties preserved and developed for service towards a CENTENARY OF THE BIRTH OF . YOUNGEST VICE-PRESIDENT. I Washington, .inn. 121.—John Cabell Breckinridge, tlie one hundredth mini- versnr.v of whoso birth was celebrated tbdn.v, was tlie youngest limn who ever lield the office of Vice-President of tlie United States, Whan lie was elected to tlmt office on tho ticket with James Buchanan in 1850 he hud reached only tlie age at which man becomes eligible under tlie Constitution of tlie office of President. And nobody coiistitutloimlly ineligible to tlie office of President is eligible to tlmt. of Vice-President Bo wns tlie ropresentotive of tlie grout Bibekenridgo family of Virginia mid Kentucky, tlie spelling of tlie mime hav ing been changed to Breckinridge. His grandfather, John Breckcniidgo, wns the intimate friend in Virginia of Jefferson, Madison mid Monroe. He served in .tho United Btntes Sennte, mid inter ns At torney-General in tlie onblnot of Presi dent Jefferson. John Cabell Breckinridge inherited Ids grmulfntlior’s intense loyalty to tho doc trine of State Boverolglmty, and when tlie family was divided at the time of tho Civil War over tho question of State or Union, ho was nmong tho foremost lend ers of tho Confederacy. Ho wns only 211 yenrs old when tho Mexican War began, but wns elected major of a rogimont of Kentucky volun teers. Ho displayed the sninc romnrknblo precocity tlmt had distinguished his grandfather. After serving in the Kentucky Hottso of ] Representatives, lie was oloetfld to Cgpgress at tlie ago of HO, lie wns re elected, and during his second torln de clined the offer of the Spanish mission tendered him by President Pierce. When .Tames Buchanan whs nomina ted- for President in 11)08 tho South wap roprosontod on tho tickot by Breck inridge, who was tho candidate for Vlo.o- Pr^sident. During tho political tumult of Vtho next four yonrs lie wns rognrdod as tho distinct representative of South ern intorests, and ns such lie wns nom inated for President in 1800 by tiio Southern delegates in tiio Democratic Convention, who sopnrntod from tlioHO that supported Stephen A. DouglnB. Breckinridge received in the Electoral College 72 votoH to 1.80 for Lincoln, .80 for Bell, and 12 for DougltiH. With tiio oxcoption of Virgin In, Kentucky, Tonnes- see and Missouri 1 , nil tlie Southern States voted for him, in that siimo year ho was olected to tlie United States Senate. He defended tiio Confederacy in tiio Son ata mid was expelled. Soon afterward ho wont South, enter ed the Confederate army, and in 1801 wns appointed a major-general, and placed in command of tho Confederate Reserves at Shiloh. Other engagements in which lie took npnrt were at Murfreesboro, .Oliickamnugn, Clmttajioogn and Cold Harbor. j ' jPor several months before tho end of the conflict lie wbh Secretary of War in the cabinet of President Jofferson Davis and wont with tiio President and other officers of tiio Confederate Gov ornment to Charlotte, N. C.. When tho contest wns finally abandoned ho went to Cuba and from there sailed for Europe, and did not return to tho United States until 1888. - Tho career of Breckinridge hns linil few parallels in American history. Ho had been Congressman, Senator, Vice President and major-general, and yet when he died, ten yenrs after the close of tho war, ho was but 54 years old. greater civilization, is a marvel. Fur thermore, she is due little gratitude to man. No god of mythology, and no warrior of ancient history, ever started upon a more dangerous, thrilling adventure than that upon which the average girl em barks today when she starts to grow up. Hardly a week passes but someone tells the editor of his home paper of “news” regarding fights, family quar rels, dissensions in the church, derelic tions of town officials, or other choice bits of gossip. We do not consider such matter as news, but rather scandai- monging, and The Pilot is not a scandal monger.—Avon Park (Fla.)

Economy is a good thing in municipal affairs, but you can enrry it too far. Many public officials say thnt beauty is u luxury nnd it enn’t he afforded. Yet people who go on that theory in imndliug their own places arc npt to boo their rcnl estate advnnco in value much. It is tho sumo in hoveloplng a city. It Ims become n settled policy in many advancing towns to ,try to por- Huuiie ovory householder to plnnt shrubs nnil trees nnil give each homo a restful setting of follnge. Trees nro planted when streets nro laid out so thnt when houses nro built tiio neighborhood seems honfollko. Vacant land in tho outskirts is takon for parks. If tuxoB can’t bo offered to improve It, community work dnys are held and the pooplo take hold nnd make it n Hoeno of beauty. Unused corners lit street intersections nro nindn into lit tle nests of greonoryi When buildings nro tint up, good standards of taBto ate nonsuited. , If a town will carry out such a policy for a period of yonrs it will acquire a charm far more attractive than costly edifices, it would gain a reputation as a homo of progressive nnd rtjflned peo ple wlte Jmve traveled onough to know whnt a fine, modern town looks like. Almost nnyono would pay a premium to live in a plnco like tlmt. “KEEP ADVERTISING.” . Editor and Publisher, ono of tlie most widely rend magazines ill the United States, under the nbovo heading print ed tho following very excollont editorial: “Advertising is more than a business tonic; it is a business necessity. That iB why it is needed at all times. Of all advertising, that whic.li carries with it tho greatest waste is what is known ns tho 'onco-in-a-while kind.’ , ‘ 1 Successful advertisers aro tho kind thnt keep it up persistently. Tlioy are judged successful becauso of the re suiting success of their business. “Up until a few years ngo there was a certain soap thnt was known around tho world. It had been the most per sistontly advertised article offered In th’o markets of the world during tho previous hundred years. From tlie day this soap was first put on the market in 1812 it was advertised in a small way, but persistently nnd continuously, For the last fifty years it Ims been one pf the best advertised products of the world. Then tho directors decided tlmt becauso the factory was selling to ca pacity, advertising could be discontin Ucd ns n useless expense. Ill less than pno year from that time the business of the firm dropped 35 per cent, in volume. That soap is again being advertised, anil we understand it wns necessary to spend $5,000,000 in extra publicity over previous appropriations to get back to normal. “This firm, wns not a 'flier in adver tising.’ Its product had been UBcd for generations and was known in the homes of the world, but it cost its makers $5,000,000 to Jcarn that advertising was as necessary to it ns the raw products thnt enter into its making. The history of merchandising iB filled with stories like this, but only a few have found it possible to win Imck trade foolishly thrown away. ’ ’ Will Tolbert, a white man, living near Sheilman, is dead from tlie effects of hydrophobia, after horrible suffering for several days. He was bitten by a pet dog last summer. The wound wns only a slight one, and soon healed up and the. incident forgotten. Thursday lie felt a peculiar sensation about the hand, and by Friday the numbness hud extended into his body and soon he went into vio lent convulsions. The sight of water would cause these convulsions to come on, sometimes lasting several hours, and the doctors could only give him tempo rary relief. At times it took the com bined strength of several strong men to manage him, and his neighbors felt that death wns a relief to him. Aurollus G. Turpin, of OhfoagD, wnj a fast worker ami stunk to the Job With' cnmmouitnblo tenacity when lie gave Miss Virginia Foster 00 kisses in an hour, Tlioy wore not little canary-bird Imita tions of a kiss, but woro of tho-moist, clinging vnrloty. Hottce Miss Foster did not Imve much timo to hroatho in that blissful hour. A jury asBcssod tho kisses nt $58 each and Turpin was ordered to pay her $3,500 for Ills oscillatory per formance. THE ROBT. E. LEE OF TODAY. M. Ashby JonnB, It has boon fifty-six years since the dose of the war, and fifty years since the dentil of Leo. Tho war clouds have rollod away, and tlie last rovorbrating echoes of tho guns died into sllonco. Tiio wounds of tiio conflict nro’ healed, tho gulf which separated sections is closed, nud tho passions nnd prejudices which produced the fearful conflict are rapidly fading away, Many of tiio [(rent actors who walked giant-llko across the stage of action have passed out of tho consciousness of our national life. Faces and figures which In tho hontod imagi nation of those dnys loomed largo with significance, in tho sane and sober thought of now generations nnd new Is sues have shrunken Into normal propor tions. But there ih ono figure silhouetted against that background of flaming florcencBB which grows largo nnd more distinct ns the fires of war subside; Tliero Is oho fneri which tfrows brighter ns tho clouds pasB from botweon. Tliero is ono voice, instinct with the tone of command, yet mixed with the melody of lovo, which grows more audiblo ns tho cannon'b ronr subsides, nnd Is more po tent in proclaiming the pathway of our national life today than when it called men to storm batteries of death, or to stand Arm against tiio Inflowing tide of destruction. Robert Edward Leo is grantor in tho thought of tho world to day than when ho was laid to rest be neath tlie academic, shades of his be loved college. Ho is tho South’s most sacred sentiment. May he become in deed and in truth, tiio South’s idoal. NEWSPAPER MEN IN THE NEXT LEGISLATURE. LaGrango Graphic. C.
