12 BE HAPPY NOW. [Written for the Looking Glass.] There is a land, where music dreaming Sings sweet and low; A thousand shadowy forms are gleaming In the pale glow Os memory’s half-light o’er them streaming— The long ago. There is a land of visions splendid— A golden clime. Where fame, love, happiness, seem blended, In hues sublime; The present by it how transcended — The coming time. There is a land whence airs entrancing Forever stray;' Where summer suns are ever glancing Athwart the day; A region filled with youth’s romancing— The far away. Why yearn beyond the bars that bound us, When year by year These visions ever fade beyond us? Why not uprear A heaven of happiness around us — The now and here? —J. A. Edgerton. CONSUMPTION CURED.

The Graphophone—“The Machine That Talks.” It is the wonder of the century and Edison’s crowning achievement for 1897 It reproduces sound in all its inflections and cadences; its range is unlimited. Music, oratory, song and laughter are caught and made subservient to its will. You can sing to it and it will sing back at you for years to come. It will repeat your laughter; you can dictate your busi ness letters to it, and turn it over to your typewriter who can then get off the cor respondence without your aid. You can talk to it now and converse with yourself years hence. It is a great thing; come and see it at 180 Peachtree Street, corner Ellis, opposite Aragon. Let us show it to you, it will cost you nothing to see, to hear and to enjoy, and if yo.i want to buy it will cost you only $lO, sl2, and $25. It is a most desirable Xmas or New Year gift. A Coal Innovation. New firms and new ideas are usually syn onymous. This is particularly true of the new firm under the style and name of the Keiley Coal and Ice Co., with offices at 45 Marietta Street. When ordering their supply of coal they bought a car load of coal scuttles, and propose to give away, free, one scuttle with every load of coal. They will handle only the best grades of standard coal and guarantee to give full 2,000 pounds for a ton, on the short est possible notice. They are prepared to fill all orders from 100 pounds to 100 car loads and invite public patronage and comparison of prices and qualities. Style, quality and workmanship can be had from McHugh the tailor, 14 E. Ala bama Street. RnwHptl Lithia Water speedily W UCU cures Insomnia.
