The St. Augustine press hits the nail on the head when it says that a doctor will sit down and write a prescription; time five minutes; paper and ink, one fourth of a cent; and the patient pays $1, $5, HO, as the case may he. A lawyer writes ten or twelve lines and gets from $10 to $50 for his client. An editor writes a half column puff for a man, pays a man fifty cents or one dollar for putting in the type prints it on $7 worth of paper sends it to several thousand peo¬ ple and surprises the puffed man if he makes any charges. BILES APPROVED . The governor has approved the following bills: To allow the people to vote at the next general election upon the ques¬ tion of amending the constitu¬ tion so as to have annual sess¬ ions of the legislature and lim¬ iting each session to fifty days.

Another increased the State liquor tax from $50 to $100. To protect primary elec¬ tions.

This pile will rest upon a fire and bnrglar proof vault. By prersing an electric button the entire pile will fall into the vault and the doors will spring shut. An attempt was made Mon¬ day to burn the Towaliga bridge on the East Tennessee road, be¬ tween Atlanta and Macon. Seven or eight bundles of fagots were found tied to different por tions of the bridge. One of the bundles had been fired, but had ouly partially burned when the incendiary was probably frigh¬ tened away and the bridge was saved. SA YING 0 F TALLE Y RAND Too much sensibility creates unhap piness; too much insensi bilty creates crime. A rich man despises those who flatter him too much, and hates those who do not flatter him at all. The love of glory can only create a hero; the contempt of it only makes a great man. Truth and virtue can do less good in the world than their fal¬ se, well-acted semblance can do evil. A generous man will place the benefits he confers benaath his feet, those he recievs nearest his heart. If you wish to appear agreea¬ ble in society you must consent to be taught many things which you know already. General maxims applied to every day life are like routine applied to arts, good only for medicre intellects. There ara many vices which do not deprive us of friends, there are meny virtues which prevent Us from having any. To contradict and argue with a total stranger is like knocking at a gate to ascertain if there is anyone within. - Gov. Toole of Montana is on¬ ly s8 years old and is one of the most distinguished looking men in the state. Columbia county is having a three day’s fair at Harlem this week. There is too many people who think they can edit a newspa¬ per better than the editor, but who have been complete fail¬ ures in managing their own business. The man who won’t adver¬ tise because “nobody will read his ad,” is the first one to rush aROund to the editors office and implore him to keep out a little two line piece that might put him or his business in a bad light.—Carroll Free Press. A little girl from Birmingham, Ala, who is now in Atlanta on ex¬ hibition, is a wonder. She is only 5 years old and weighs 100 pounds. At birth this child weighed only 8 pounds. During the tiist year of he: life her health was extremely bad, and at the close of the year her weight had shrunk to 6 pounds. At 3 years of age she woifihed 15; at 4. 54 andnow at 5 100 pounds. Her name is Amber Glen Corley. She is 43 inches high, measures 43 inches around the waist aDd wears a No. 7 child’s shoe. She is endowed with marvelous strength, though not allowed to use it, much. Her appe¬ tite is simply enormous. The night she reached Atlanta she ate at sup¬ per .two pounds of beefsteak, six fried eggs, with bread, cakes and drinkables to match. Her father states that she drinks three or four gallons of watei daily. She is very healthy, and at the present rate promises to become the monster woman of the age. Price per Year, SLOG Resolutions Union Church. Union Methodist church, in an offi¬ cial meeting-, desire to express their regret that ihe County Alliance should have taken any notice or action in regard to a sermon preached at our church some time ago by our Presi¬ ding Elder, Rev. R J. Bigham, and are sorry that the editor of The Solid South commented on Bro. Bigham’s statement in his paper. While some of our members thought at the "time that one or two points of the sermon was perhapf intended to refer to Ah liance principles, all that was said to him by any of the members, or the sister, was in the kindest spirit of love, friendship, and pleasantly as a friend and former pastor.

FOREPAUGH3 CIRCUS. This is toe first season in AmerL ca of Colonel E. Daniel Boone's thrilling exhibition, a circus ring filled with lions let loose in a ninety* foot steel cage. In this exhibition he is assisted by the champion lion queen. Mis Cariotts, and the wonder fully trained German boarhound. “Saxon.” The lions do the bidding of Colonel Boone intelligently and with alacrity. They are formed into squads, drilled and marched; they work bicycles, and when bar nessed to a Roman chariot and driv en by their master, go whirling and leaping around the great circular cage, drawing their trainer triumph¬ antly. These are the kind of attrac¬ tions presented this season by Adam Forepaugh Shows. This famous show with all its collossal aggrega¬ tion will exhibit in Atlanta next Monday.
