The marked increase in the popu lation of lower Georgia during the last ten years, as shown by the cen sus, is one of the most encouraging over the,Central railroad the other day, breaking the record for fast running on that line since the days of Nancy Hanks. The special flashed like a meteor through the yards here, the estima ted speed as it passed this depot being sixty miles an hour. The train stopped only at Macon and Smithville on the run of 207 miles from Atlanta to Albany. An engine and one Pullman car made up the train, and aboard the Pullman was an anxious father has tening as fast a3 steam could take him to the bedside of his two chil dren in Florida. They were said to be dying. He left St. Louis at 6:40 o’clock Friday night, and at the same hour Saturday night reached Jacksonville. The distance of 1,000 or 1,200 miles was covered in 21 hours. From Atlanta to Macon, 103 miles, the time was 108 minuteB. Five minutes were lost in ohanging engines, and then the ‘•‘special” fair ly flew toward Albany, just 106 miles further south. The “special” flashed by Americus at 2:40 p. m„ just one hour after the Central fast vestibule left, yet it overhauled and passed the vestibule before it reached Albany, 36 miles distant. It was a record-breaking run. This lightning “special” cost the St. Louis father the round sum of $1,775. .

Americns Times. A special “flyer” carrying a St. Louis millionaire from that oity to Jacksonville sped through Americus signs of the times. It shows that there is a stream of new comers pouring into this favored section where balmy weather characterizes all of the seasons and where Mother Earth yields her plenty with the least human labor. The flow having set this way strongly, there is reason for thinking it will oontinue indefi nitely, to the great advantage of all concerned. The railroads, turpentine farms and saw-mills have been the pion eers which opened up the rich lands for agricultural purposes, and wealth producing orops of cotton, corn, su gar cane, rice, fruits and so on in almost endless variety now reward the tillers of the acres that a few years ago were covered with forest growths. Farms and fruit orchards on. what were formerly “pine bar rens” and low lands in lower Geor gia are now making their intelligent and thrifty husbandmen independ ent. Should the new-comers follow the example of those settlers to whom we refer, and no doubt they will, another decade will see lower Georgia among the most prosperous parts of the great republic, if not indeed the most prosperous of them all. The towns that have already felt the benefit of the increase in population of the past ten years will be made great and profitable by the trade that will come from the fruit ful fields and humming factories- In the coming good times of in creased population, increased busi ness and increased prosperity the native Georgians will have a large share of the profit. It should be their pleasure, therefore, to help the movement along whenever it is pos sible for them to do so. Many of them are land-owners with acres they would like to sell. The prices of the lands should be kept within reason; no fancy prices should be charged. No doubt that there are a great many instances in which a merely nominal price put upon lands for the purpose of attracting honest, thrifty white settlers would be in the nature of a good investment, since well-tilled and profitable farms inevitably increase values in their community. Land-owners should meet home-seekerB “half way” or a little better. By doing so they will serve their state and themselves at the same time. An Essay on Habit. A story is fold of an English school-master who offered a prize to the boy who would write the best composition in five minutes on“How to Overcome Habit,” At the expiration of five minutes the compositions ’ were read. The prize went to a lad of nine years. The following is his essay: “Well, sir, habit is hard to over come. If you take off the first letter it does not change ‘abit.’ If you take off another, you still have a ‘bit’ left. If you take off another, the whole of ‘it’ remains. If you take off another, it is not wholly used up; all of which goes to show that if you want to get rid of a hab it, you must throw it off altogeth er.’’Christian Intelligencer. Nuts For Boys to Crack. Here is a list of questions for tho wide-awake boy: You can see any day a white horse, but did you ever see a white colt? How many different kinds of trees grow in your neighborhood, and what are they good for? Why does a horse eat grass backward and cow forward? Why does a hop vine grow ohe way, a bean vine tho oth er? Where Bhould a chimney be the larger, at the top or at the bottom, and why? Can you tell why a horse when tethered with a rope always unravels it while a cow always twists it into a kinky knot? How old must a grape vine be before it begins to bear? Can you tell why leaves turn upside down just before a rain? What wood will bear the greatest weight before breaking? “The blood is the life.” Science has never gone beyond that simple statement of scripture. But it has illuminated that scripture and given it a meaning ever broadening with the increasing breadth of knowl edge. When the blood is “bad” or impure it is not only the body which suffers through disease. The brain is also clouded, the mind and judg ment are affected, and many an evil deed or impure thought may be di rectly traced to the impurity of the blood. No one can be well balanced in mind and body whose blood is impure. No one can have a whole some and pure life unless the blood is pure. Foul blood can be made pure by the use of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. When the blood is pure, body and brain are alike healthy and life becomes a daily happiness.
