It io so much the condition that

einporal condition of many peo¬
ple is not as bad as they in their
fervid imagination picture it.
Often we find men and women
who have but little of tho things
•>f this life, which are termed
luxuries, or even necessities,
»nd yet such ones are free heart
id and happy. The reason is
their hearts are centered upon
things which feed the soul and
satisfy tho craving for the beau¬
tiful in nature and the lifegiv
mg in temporal Too
much stress is laid upon things
carnal, and too little i3 thought
of things which make of life a
real aud earnest life. We
think too much of our own

World’s Fair and at the Atlanta Exposition. The officials of
Fulton county aud the city of Atlanta, also the Southern rail
road, have adopted for their use this in preference tojall other
coals- I could refer to hundreds .of others who prefer this coal
to any other,
All who expect to bum coal the coming winter would do
