store that advertises than you can anywhere else. The man who advertise
sell all their goods, they keep goods that will stand the test of publicity,
goods that will stand comparison with other goods and come out winner in
cheapness, quality and durability. The man who operate stores using ad
vertising space are men of responsibly, lor they must measure up to a high
standard.
The management ol the Milledgeville News gives personal care and
supervision tc the make-up and distribution of paper. We endeavor to make

There Is something indescribable
about the sunshine. You can take
the sunshine of a smile and its radi
ance will dispel sullen countenances
and cause happiness to spread 'round
about where discouragement has neon
prevailing. Then you can take It In
the summer time after a long rainy
spell and It will make earth sweet—
talking about tlu- sunshine from the
sun now—and the plants will reflect
the glory of the hidden treasures of
nature. Again you can take the sun
shine In the time of drouth and It s
about the most unwelcome thing that
can be found, for we hunt the bab
bling brooks, the cooling waters of
the hillside spring, the friendly shel
ter of the old shade tree, or stav
around the house. After all what Is
sunshine itself but a repetition of life
as a whole?
There's no room for grumbling on
earth. Sunshine Is had enough and

to mix ui> with. It's only the ones
who suffer, who know how to strug

of surmounting the mountains of dif-
Hrtilths that confront humanity. The
bravest little sweetheart I ever saw a
fellow have grieved day after day
because he was an unappreciative
kind of mortal, drank whiskey some
times. and was indifferent to Ihe 1
wishes of the dearest on earth. Fi- j

and though one who was on tin* ill-j

You can take another little story
of a life with plenty of real tragedy
mixed up In it, where the woman
this time was married. With a house
full of children she struggled un
ceasingly without any help from a
husband who would not aid except
when it came to the last pinch,
though he was caphble of doing big
things. That mother fought the stub

NATURE'S WAY.
There Is no way to select a flock
of money-making hens exeept by
choosing those that wo know to be the
kind that will produce results. We
must study the fowls and know by
observation which hens will lay the
most eggs It Is not hard to dis
tinguish the good hens from those
that lay no eggs.
We soon learn to know each In
dividual and we can easily select
those that will be piofltable.
No breed of poultry will at all
times ami under all conditions be
profitable, and some individual iu ev-
ry flock will always be unprofitable.
We must therefore study our flock
and select the good one and send the
o'hers to market. A few drones will
consume the profit of the entire dock
and the sooner we Kill such hens ilm
more our profit will bo.
