Blasengame, Thom- asvilJe, Ga., has recently given to the City Board of Thomasville a thirteen-room house and pro ceeds from 50 acres of land. It is called, the Vashti Blassiugame Industrial Home for Girls, in memory of his mother. Mrs. W. H. Johnson says, “I find that nearly four-fifthB of our fallen girls or orphans, have only one parent.” Many of these outcast children were left or- Dhans when too old for Orphan Somes. 1 hey are left to drift in the oold world or be tossed about by its pitiless winds. This new movement is for this olass of girls—a work of prevention, rath er than rescue, No greater need is before us to-day. Another Open Door.— The Thomasville Board desires to make this the property of our Board, as soon as we ban accept it. They now oonsider it ours, and a branch of our work. The Home is in charge of Miss Annie Heath, one of our new deaconess es. Every room in the house has already been furnished by differ ent ones, some in memory of lov ed ones. Horses, cows, pigs and money came in unsolicited, and already God’s approval is stamp ed upon this new step. Oh, that we might rise to our privileges, and open wide the door of this refuge for many helpless mother less girls, who need a home and training for life’s duties l Supt. of Literature. Death of an Infant. Written for Tito Homo Journal. Friday morning, November 27th, at about the dawn of day, the Omuipitent sent a messenger for a jewel He had on i earth. This jewel was little Inez, the infant Revolution Imminent. A sure sign of approaching re volt and Berious trouble in your system is nervousness, sleepless ness or stomach upsets. Electric Bitters will quickly dismember the troublesome causes. It never fails to tone the stomaoh, regulate daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank the kidneys and bowels, stimulate Ra^e. She had been spared to their care for nearly two years, when the Lord sent his angels to bear her spirit to Him,' and she is now in the realms of Eternal Hap piness. Littlo Inez was a sweet child, the idol of her parents’ hearts, the life of the household, the pet of relatives and friends. We know her voice will be missed, her lit tle ohair will be vacant, aud her littlo toys will serve as reminders of the darling that is gone, but the Lord’s will must be done, and no man can hinder. While everything that human hands oduld do was done for Inez, it availed nothing and the dread ed disease, membranous oroup, did its work quickly: The little body was buried at Sardis church in Bibb county. If we had the power, we would oonsole the parents,—mother es pecially. We ban sympathize with them, and may the Lord bind their broken hearts and heal their wounds. Dec. 1st 1908. G. T. H.

Is it possible that there is the same close relationship be tween cotton and sourkrout that we used to bb told existed be tween wheat and silver? —Savan nah News. A Hand-blistering Task. It is enough to blister one’s hands just to contemplate the job that confronted the men who swept floor of the mammoth Pal ace of Agriculture at the St. Louis World’s Fair. When the con tractors finished their work re cently all that remained to be done was to sweep the floor. It never dawned on anyone how great the task was. Oaldwell and Drake, the contraotors, ordered a dozen brooms and set 12 men to work. When night came their inroads on the great expanse of 28 aores of floor space was scarce ly noticeable. They increased the force next day to 40 men and ordered 100 brooms. These 40 men yrorked ten days before the big flbor was thoroughly swept. «*-•-•» —- If you see a man on the street carrying $140,000 in a satohel, don’t jostle him, by accident or othrewise; better cross the street to make sure. In New York the other day a boy of sixteen failed to observe this precaution and narrowly escaped being shot. The man with the satchel was a bank messenger, aud when the boy acci dentally bumped against him, he thought he was being held up.— Ex. the liver and clarify the blood.
