One of the most persistent ad
vertisers in the history of sue
cess was Robinson Crusoe. H
knew what he wanted—a ship
so he put up an ad for one H<
flung a shirt on a pole at the top
of his island; that, in the lan
gunge of the sea, was plain to
everp seafaring man. The cir
culation was small—there was no
other medium —but Crusoe kept
at it despite the fact that he got
no inquiries for a long time. H*.
changed his copy as one garment
after another was frayed out—
and in the end he got what h

Ccusoe had taken down that sig

Atlanta. Ga , May 29.—With
the announcement of Clifford
Walker, foitner attorney general
for the governorship and N. H.
Ballard, for state superintendent
of schools Saturday, all prospects
for a uuiet political season this
year went glimmering and activ
ity is now in evidence.
I have definitely decided to be
ceme a candidate for governor
at the approaching democratic
primary, said Mr. Walker. Later
I shall publish the platform upon
which I shall ask the suffrage of
the people. In this platform, I
will state my position on all those
matters which I believe the peo
ple are now interested, I shall
maintain headquarters here at
Monroe but will take the stump
earlier than July 1 as conditions
justify.
In making public his platform,
Mr. Walker will launch a vigor
ous attack against the present
administration. While he has
not disclosed the nature of his
criticism it has been indicated
that it will prove sensational.
Brunswiok is the home of the
candidate for superintendent of
cchools, M, L. Brittain’s office.
The incumbent has not stated
whether he will ask renomina

Commissioner of Agriculture,
J. J. Brown is being opposed by
A. O. Blalock and the two are
now engaged in a hot campaign.
James A, Perry, of the rail
road commission, is opposed by
Dr. A. S. Bush of Pelham, while
Wal'er McDonald, of Augusta,
has announced for Chairman, C.
vl. Candler’s place on the board.
Others are expected to enter the
race.
DIRTY AND LOW DOWN.
The difference between a gos
sip and a rattlesnake is very ap
parent, but the advantage of the
snake over the gossip is a big
one and lies in the fact that you
do not listen to the rattle of the
snake. The snake's bite is gen
erally fatal, but the gossip’s
sting never kills.
The, lips that touch liquor are
not ftearly so dangerous as the
lips that tattle. The bibble bab
ble, gibble-gabble woman, the
tongue-running, character-kill*
ing man, that highly developed
jaw-jabber is a greater menace
than the tobacco habit,
Sweetening your tea with scan
dal or creaming your coffee is
more dangerous and harmful
than blowing cigarette smoke in
the face of a baby. Repeating
scandals is just as bad as start
ing it. Loaning vour ear to gos
sip is sufficient proof you want
to spread it.
Gossip is a dirty, low business
—an outward evidence that vou
are inwardly mean and vile. Gos
sip is a chronic disease that takes
best in the brain of the malicious
The fawning dog will waggle
his tail to win join coaxing—the
foolish gossip hypes to win by
wagging his tongue.
Gossip destroys business, de
moralizes society and stall the
success of a store.
Gossip wears a mask to hide
its dirty face. It would be infin
itely better for the gossip to
wear a gag. —Exchange.

Quite a difference you will say, but in one respect
there is a similarity. A bar-keeper used to buy a barrel
of corn liquor and make two barrels out of it. Some re
finers blend, mix and compound their oils. The bar
keeper didn’t mix water with his liquor to make it bet
ter, neither does the refiner mix his oil to make it|better;
both were mixed because there was more profit to the
dealer, and because the buyer could be fooled-
