FLOORS VERSUS CARPETS.
There is a strong protest i-ffcred, in
different ways and from various sour
,ces, against our long established prnc-
itice of makiug poor floors, with the de-
,sign of keeping them covered with car
; pet8 stretched and fitted to every part-,
and carefully tacked down. ^Carpets iu
daily use cahnot be kept clean excep
by very frequent shaking and beating,
and they do much toward corrupting
the air by retaining impure gases, hi
lling jtjie'fiue’st, most'pi-netrating dust
in their meshes and underneath them,
and. by giving off particles of fine wool
inlo the atmosphere, with other dust,
as they are swept or walked upon.
There is a demand for better floors,
not necessarily inlaid or mosaics, of dif
ferent kinds of precious wood, but
made double, of strong seasoned wood,
that will not shrink or warp (spruce,
however well sensoned, is almost sure
to warp), and then carefully finished
so as to be durable and easily cleaned.
Carpeted floors seem a relief to tlie
• hon’se-Keeper when once the carpets are
procured and fitted to the rooms and
tacked down, because they do not
.show the dirt as the ba*e floors do.
Blit oh! when they do get full of dust!
Aud when liouse-clenning time comes,
and they must be taken up and shaken
.-nud whipped as they well deserve!
With warmly-made floors and large
Warm rugs, couldn’t we do without
(these abominations even in winter.
Certainly our rooms wonld be cooler
and sweeter without them iu summer.
But in that- case we must- take more
pains with onr floors, «Dd we must have
Something better than the common un-
pninted ones, Oiled floors are better
liked than those painted, even for
kitchens. Women find that they can
oil their floors themselves, and many a
kitchen.floor has, .within a few years,
been made comfortable and decent in
that way. Boiled linseed oil is used,
.and two or'three coats ni-e put on, one
-after another, as fast as they are dry.
Floors of-ajtorjuato boards of different
binds of wood are pretty for me so
rooms, and sometimes a border made
in this way, diagonal stripes, bordered
by a straight board on each side, or
wood of two kinds laid in checks
diamonds, is very satisfactory,
bordered rooms are especially -de:
for parlors, or rooms where a bordered
carpet or large rich rug is intended to
merely cover most of the floor, leaving
a margin of about two feet «round the
.edges—a carpet which can often be car-
jried put aud shaken free from dust-.
.Oiled floors do not need hard scrub-
jbhig. like unpainted floors, bnt simply
«good washing with warm (uot hot)
Witter, often changed as you go ever it.

There is no part of North Geo -gia

Ve wi.l take Houston: County as a

erly classed iu both divisions:
Fibst.— We have a climate that is said

Sunny Italy. We are almost exempt
for ibe ixurmcs of heat and coid, and
For the general good health of our peo
ple we con chalk upe comparison with
that of any’other locality on the conti
nent. The health statistics of the Uni
ted States of 1&70 show this to be the
most free from diseases of any part of
the union—in fact we have no diseases
of much consequence except a mild type
of malarial iiflecticus which never be
come fat al till less neglected.
Second.—Wc Cave the most generous
and easily 1 cuhivi.ti d soil in the world.
While ifot tlie richest, the ease with
which it Can be fertilized and.cultivated
more than con n f oil a lances that advan
tage. But with the same amount of

on the rich lands of the North and
West, wo tieiit ve our lands would give

MUNICIPALITIES,
It has been said that corporations
have no souls, aud it might be said with
equal piopriety that municipal corpora
tions have, no sense. In late years they
have piled debt on debt unt’i “Pelion
upon Ossrr” ceases to be an adequate
metaphor. Now that it is manifcstly
impossible ever to geY'out,, they arc
trying very hard to do so unmindful
that nothing they have done before is
moro egregiously foola-li that the at
tempt to do an improbable thing. To
say that they aretrying yery hard is per
haps extravagant, for really they have
done little more thantalkvery hard, and
o very little purpcf e. A few hr ve done
more certainly, and all that they have
done seems consistently unwise. The
poor things don’t know what lo do.
Hosts of wiseacres are ready
to tell them just what- to do, and to
tell them wrong.
Besides their enormous debts most of
them are burdened with population, and
deficient in trade—burdened because
their trade is-not sufficient for the sup
port of so many. If the people should
move out the towns wonklgrow smaller,
and if the people remain the towns
will be capped.
To materially increase the rates of
taxation would d|iye out so many tax-
payeis as actually to diminish the reve
nue, and to continne in force the pres
ent rates is-.-the other hormof a.-.dilemr
Dill.
:It is their own. affair however. Let
them answer tlieir own conn ndrnms.

‘early indiscretion,’ -‘loss of manhood,’

with special reference to this"Inman
yet’vve find at this Tate day, in a journal
.edited^by-ii'clergemanV who would iiift
knowingly- bGp ^ siGndle of any kind,:
an advertisement, displiifyed in leaded
type, in whicli this same Inman por-
poses tO send this ‘Recipe’ of conrse
free’ to those answering the advertise-
,ment. Tlie ‘recipe,’’ accompanied by
four pages of fiddle-faddle, setting forth
all about it, is as follows:
Fxtract of Corrasra Apimis Eiybt Dracbnis.
Extract of Selarmo Umbelifcra Four Dracbms.
Powdered Albcnnefi Latifolia Three Draclims.
Extract of Carsadoc.Berbalis Six Drachms.
Then follow directions for fixing aud
mixing aud,taking the stuff, which he
calls the ‘Oorrassa Compound.’—The
Rev. Joe tells the story of the emus or
his youth, .which we can readily belie ve
considering how lie goes on now that he
is no longer young; tells how he went us
a missionary of South America (poor
salvages!) .how he discovered the ‘Cor-
rassa Compound,’ how bad he was be
fore be took it, 1i§av he got well, and
how he was ‘convinced that it was his
sacred duty to make known the discove
ry of this remedy for the benefit of suf
fering humanity.’—Tliejo nil lire taken
with this sense of ‘duty.’. How this
‘duty’appears to loc, can be read in
his directions
‘HOW TO OBTAIN THE COBKASSA COMPOUND. ’
Joe—the' Reverend—says: ‘As the
drug stores can not-be relied upon to
procure new remedies of pure quality,
I can forward the Corrassa Compound,’
etc. —and that accounts for the milk in
Joe’s coccaiint. Send only §3,50 to Joe
—aud you are all right. Try to get it at
the drug stores, aDd yon are all
wrong.' ‘Sac- ed duty’ is a big thing
at 83,50 a time.
Now yon Mister Reverend Joseph T.
Inman, yon know that this ‘recipt’ of
yours is all stuff and nonsenee. You
know that those names. ‘Corrassa Api
mis,’ and all the rest, have their origiD
only in what wc will, as a convenient
word, call your brain, and yon know as
well as we do, that every so-called .new
remedy’ in yonr ‘recipe’ is like yourself
—a miserable fraud--a humbug. That
the things named in this ‘recipt’ are not
known in medicine, in pharmacy, pr in
botany; they are bnnglingly made up,
have not the semblance of probability,
and are so far unlike the real names of
real things that they adveriise yonr ig
norance and stupidity. The youngest
clerk in a drug store could have sug
gested ‘Hydrofoeiiiligumbo,’ or ''Amana-
gooselick,' ns more like real names than
the utterly stupid ones-you hayechosein
Joe, yonbave bceu arunudlong enough
—we are tired of yon—subside A
curious thing, connected with Joe’s cir
cular is that a Freochmau in Canada—
in bis singleness-oi'heart, shouljl find it
‘disgracefnljhat a ‘Reverend’ should he.
in such business.’—‘Reverend’—bless
you, that title is no more true than the
names to his drugs. Joe is no reverend,
