Congress met at Washington for
the purpose of relief and to revise
the tariff, but the issues seetn to be
sidetracted tor the time being. The
question that now seems to be at¬
tracting most attention is whether
or not the Vice-President's sister
has the right 11 be seated at the
first table. They now think this is
settled and Mr Curtis is very much
pleased over the results.

castor oil or some epsom salts tor

In your childhood days they
made you wait when there was
company, ou then thought they
were wrong and still believe it.
They told you age before beauty
and mau before monkey. Child¬
ren have wonderful appetites and
it is a great hardship to have to
wait on the outside with the dogs.,
Old people can wait much betlei
than children for they have begun
to die at the top, have their third
set of teeth and their voice has be¬
gan to squeak. Chocolate cake
doesn’t now taste as well as molded
cornbread use too to them. Y ou
can remember when they had bis¬

how you enjoyed them. And the}

Sa: urdays you brought in a load ol
bark and they baked most wonder¬
ful light bread. That warm bread
and butter were too good for the
King and Queen. As this world
goes around and around everything
is in a whirl and there is continual¬
ly a change.

named three problems facing
Georgia in the improvement of ag¬
ricultural conditions; these are,
bettering of home conditions, elim¬
inating local ineffeciency in govern¬

would be bankrust to-dap. How¬
ever, he states that the hope of the
future lies in the younger genera¬
