Figures of railway capi talization in the last few years show how rapid has been the rate of ab sorption, the figures not only rising prodigiously each year since 1893, but the ratio of increases for each year making successive bounds up to the scramble which developed among the railroads for capital resources towards the close of the year.

June 28.—Authentic in formation has reached the railroad commission that other railroads of the state are refusing to give any of their unrouted business to the Atlanta, Bir mingham and Atlantic Railroad Co. Two reasons for this action are sug gested. One of them is that the A. B. <fr A. has seen fit to obey the railroad commission’s orders and the other is the fear that the A.

There were just 258 bills and resolutions, many of them of a local nature. The very first bill introduced was the anti-lobbying bill by Messrs. Tay- propriation of $5,000 to supply the de ficiency in the military fund caused by the Atlanta and Atacon riots, and asked that an appropriation be made to care for the 3,000 Confederate graves at Marietta. The additional ad interim appoint ment of Robert I. Shipp as judge of the City Court of Moultrie was sent in and confirmed. Only a few bills were introduced, among them a bill by Senator Gordy to make the uniform fee of ordinaries for issuing a marriage license $2: also a bill by Senator Knight to amend the child labor law so as to prohibit the labor of any child under 12 years in any mill or factory under any circupi- stances. The present age limit under this section is 10 years. al of $500,000 in salaries. The reason for this is that the proposed law pro hibits the exchange of transportation between railroad and steamship com panies, and the representatives of these companies are compelled to travel. They (ay they will have to go into another state which has no such law. ATLANTA.

The news comes from the i time of the material wa construction camps below Tuxham. on j th* port. That for the fact that the entire yellow pine lumber business Is in the throes of an unprecedented slump all along the line it is more than probable that the total for the year 3907 would have eclipsed all former records, brilliant as they have proven. The information used by Superintendent Purse was gathered from the best of sources—in fact, from the shippers them selves, and as he was very painstaking in his labor of compiling the statistics, their correctness cannot be questioned. The average citizen of Savannah was simply amazed at the business which It is proved is yearly transacted in this com modity.

While some give more formal and larger re ceptions, it has been the custom of Georgia to keep open house during the entire five days of the conclave, the glad hand is never closed. The true spirit ol’ Southern hospitality has made Georgia headquarters one of the most popular among all the States. In recognition of the special honor paid to Georgia by Grand Master Moulton by the appointment at San Francisco of J. K. Orr. of Atlanta, as a member of his staff, the Knights Tem plars of Georgia will send a large delegation from the State. While some may go earlier, the grand commanders special will leave Saturday. July 6, at midnight over the Southern Railway. The plans for entertaining are pitched on a grander scale than ever before. Several thousand Georgia beaten biscuits will be sent on ahead, these are made in the shape of a Mal tese Cross, and carry the word Geor gia. and have come to be known as j “The Georgia Cracker.” Their fame if | need be, will be exploited by hand- painted cards tacked up about the ho tel, inviting the unwary to: “Come try a Georgia Cracker, Made in a Georgia town. With just enough of the right stuff To wash the cracker down.” Lest any might think the sentiment too strong, it is only fair to say that the fluent fluidity referred to, is only Georgia scuppernong wine, which is amply described in “A Juicy Song ATLANTA.

This will be preserved as a book mark, and will find its way into tile hearts and tile homes of thousand* of true Ameri cans to remind them of a happy meeting with Templar friends from “way down South in Georgia.” The Eyebrows. The eyebrows should receive as care ful if not as frequent attention as the hair. With a bit of cold cream on the finger-tips rub the eyebrows gently to loosen any possible dandruff, since they are often subject to this annoyance. Then wash them with a mixture of al cohol and water. Lastly, brush them, using the little brush on the end of the nail-file. First brush them straight up towards the hair, then straight down, and the line will be fine and well shaped. If this treatment is used reg ularly the eyebrows will constantly grow more beautiful.
