nccourit for the genial sec
retary's sidestepping the proposition
on the ground that the newly discov
ered elixir Is a germ. He dislikes
germs. He holds to the opinion that
there Is no good In a germ, whatever
guise of supposed blessings It may
come under. He'll duck n germ any
lime, anywhere. So he declined a free
administration of the germ of longevi
ty.
One day recently Secretary Cook was
Immersed In a few hundred, letter.,
nsklng all Imaginable sort of questions.
His office Is sort of a clearing house
of Information—from the elucidation of
the Apoetlea' ‘Creed to the best chill
tonic.
“Good-morning, sir,” a voice at his
elbow snld.
The secretory looked up from a re
quest for the name of the Justice of
the peace in Squash Hollow district In
1847, and saw a well dressed man.
"Good-morning. Whnt can I do for
you7” asked the secretary.
You can do nothing for me. I have
come to administer an Inestimable
boon on you. sir,” wae the reply.
'So? Well, whnt Is It?”
"Life everlasting? I have come to
give you the first opportunity to test
my great discovery—the germ which
will give o man life hero forever. I
desired to give It flrst to Governor
Smith, but he Is so busy, and uncon
scious of what a great boon I wish to
offer, so I come to you."
"Well, what Is It?" asked the secre
tary. getting just a bit nervous.
“It Is a germ. Like nil of the great
agencies that destroy life, the agency
which gives life for nil time Is a sim
ple little germ. 1 am Its discoverer,
will arrest dissolution nnd keep you
where you now are until the Anal trump
call. I could administer this germ to
the hoi pollol. but It would not benefit
me. I want to experiment on some
public official."
"Where do you keep these germs?”
asked Secretary Cook, fencing for time.
"Right here." replied the stranger,
slapping his chest. "If you take what
I have here you will never get a day-
olden You will retain the same men
tal and physical vigor. You will live
thousands upon thousands of years.”
By now Secretary Cook was maneu
vering for a chance to get where he
could dash for the door. If need be, to
make sudden retreat. But at this mo
ment some one came In and the secre
tary turned to the locoed stranger and
said:
"You call back here, sir, when 1 am
not busy, and I wilt talk It over with
you.”
"Certainly, sir.” was the courteous
reply, as the giver of the germ of un
numbered years withdrew.
"Oee. that wae a close shave," said
the secretary. The stranger has never
returned, but Secretary Cook live. In
mortal dread that ha will, and fore*
him to take some of the germs.
The committee appointed at tho first
officers’ meeting of the Fifth Regiment
held since Its return from Jamestown,
to draft resolutions of thanks to those
who so kindly rendered valuable as
elstance toward securing the fund ncc
eesnry for the regiment's trip to James
town, have submitted the following re
port:
"To the newspapers of Atlanta—'Tip
Constitution, The Journal and The
Georgian—we beg to extend our hearty
thanks for their help In advertising the
slu»m battle, the' Bingham lecture and
the military fair, nnd for making ap
peals to the public for patronage of
those efforts and for general apprecia

"To tho officers of the Seaboard Air

appreciation for courtesies whlcji add
