While the newspaper* all over the country are agitating the idea of tra ding at home, it will not be amis* foi them to express their “Innard” thoughts of the merchants, the pro fessional and the business men ail over this brom) land of our* who are violating the good old trade at home idea. Tlie United States Is wealthy j' and owns the largest printing plant I ‘ in the world, and control* other pri j vate printing house* throughout the i country. Ami the United State* ha* : entered into competition with the home printer on a basis he cannot ■ begin to compete with. The United States print shop print* return cards' on envelopes free of cost. All you have Io do i* to order them through ' your postmaster and dear Uncle Sammy deliver* them at your post office free of charge for the cost of stumped envelope*. And dear old Sammy goes out of the way to get these profitless job*. lie send* out thousands of dollar* worth of adver Using matter, asking for work at a | price that would starve the home prin ter nay the home printer cannot buy i the blank envelope* anywhere near the price Uncle Sam want* to supply i them at. Printing envelopes is a part of every home printing office's j legitimate buslneks, and no one ; should send away to Washington to | get this work done because It is cheap. You don't like to see your customers sending away to Shears ! Sawbuck for good* because they are cheap, but some of you yourselves don’t mind getting envelopes that ■ way. Practice what you preach and let the money stay at home. Hence forth if you want to see If the firm you have in mind is cheap, notice his I envelopes. If they are government printed, you can mark that house down as a mail order house. Same thing.—Ex. At Brownsville, Ky„ the Cook-Pea ry controversy ha* been taken into politics. The democrats have solemn ; ly resolved In favor of Dr. Cook, while the republicans have with equal sob limit y declared Peary the dlscov j erer of the Pole. Tin' voters are 1 asking candidate* to state unequivo cally who they favor as the dlscov- j erer of the pole. Two months hence ‘ they will go to the polls and vote on the question. And that will settle the matter, in so far as Brownsville is concerned. There Is nothing like the sacred right of the ballot for settling controversies.

POLLOCK, President. The Menlo High School Journal. Yes, the same irnmicable Peracles of Menlo is at the helm again, and any turbulancy of the educational waters, whether imaginable or really ■ real, have folded under all rough | edges and in one sense there is a I great calm; that Is to say that all i uneasiness and Baalimic prophesying has disappeared, and as the little i I’allilean ship when the Nazarene .stepped upon the deck and with a j mild rebuke tlie forces of nature I promptly obeyed and immediately in the desired haven, so with Professor Ransom's recupancy of our beloved academy as principal, with a faculty of accomplished and efficient ladies. ! we feel assured that the labors aim J and worthy ambition of the fathers Ito build up a model school will be the product. This is the fountain that will send many sparkling brooks io Join "the briming river" of learn : nig. Menlo has awakened to the reali zation that while her bills grow de licious Elbertas from which there is much profit; and the incomparable Shinbone ridge yields forth quanti ties of iron oar and fine mineral wa ter which lias such wonderful healing | qualities of which we proudly boast, still the school is by far the most important factor. The school opened on Monday. I September 16th, with 161 pupils, but there are 177 on tlie roll now. We have 31 boarding pupils witli us from ; Rock Springs, Broomtown valley, Ce dar Grove and Cherokee county, Ala., which we gladly make room for. We have four literary teachers and an up-to-date music teacher, viz: Prof. Ransom, Miss Rosa Wyatt, Miss Phillips, Mrs. Anderson and Miss Pendergrass, respectively, who puz zle our brains with grammar, non sense and learning (ironically speak ingl from eight o'clock in the morn ing until four in the afternoon. This is the beginning of our fifth week, and if you have any doubt about our doing good work, just come and see, for the doors are always open and a hearty welcome is extended to all. Quite a number of the people of this place have visited our school since it opened, and those who came Friday were Mrs. Jennings, Misses Maggie and Effie Leath and Mrs. McCoy. Prof. Ransom has a black board on which he has recorded the names of all the high school pupils and marks each week's study, which he keeps hanging in the hall public to all who pass through there. 1 wish 1 had not told you and perhaps you would have passed it by unnoticed. Tlie school was excused from their lessons after the last recess Friday p. ui. and the time was consumed in organizing a school society. The officers were elected and committees appointed to arrange a program for the first meeting which is to be held two weeks from that time. We have not named our society but that will be done later. For fear of taking up too much space we will bid you adieu for the present, promising to call again next w eek. Dr. J L. D. King paid our school a visit a few mornings ago and the pupils made known to him our ap preciation for the work he has done in the past and is doing in the pres .ent. for our school by a rising vote. i Misses* Fannie Calloway and Glen n« Thomas Khl THE SUMMERVILLE NEWS, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1909.

So you need not be burdened with the big pile of cash you are getting for your cotton this time, going home Will thank you to leave it with him. M. M. ALLEN. There is more Catarrh in this sec tion of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local remedies and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven ca tarrh to be a constitutional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, man ufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., To ledo, Ohio, Is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken in ternally in doses from 10 drops to a ) teaspoonful. It acts directly on the ; blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dol lars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address: F. J.

Friday was advertised as the day I for display of the new millinery for the fall and winter wear of our peo- i pie, and others who have learned to! , appreciate the excellence of millinery i j fashioned by the deft hands of our, artists in that line. The day brought many people to ; town; a steady stream of women and ’ children were constantly passing . . from one store to another, until all :■ the places advertised had been vis ited. j Like the Queen of Sheba, they i i I found that the half had not been ' told. There is an unusual abundance ■ of hats, street hats, church hats, au tomobile hats, and wedding hats; in ■ the most stylish shapes, of the very ; i latest materials, in the most fashion-1 able colors, from the biggest picture 1 hat to the elegant little bonnet suit- ' able for all ladies at prices ranging from two to twenty-five dollars, j At the popular store of T. Hiles & I Co., Miss McWhorter and a number I of assistants were kept busy waiting lon customers who were engaged in I the charming occupation of “trying" and buying hats. The "trying" pro ; cess is the most difficult, however, for Dame Fashion has decreed that hats must set well down on the head this season, and the enormous size of the crown and the absence of the bandeau causes the hat to come almost under the ears, making the woman under the hat to appear as iif about to be swallowed by the hat. But the hats are so lovely and so stylish that the buyers will risk all danger of accident and will be ! come wearers of these same artis tic creations in silk, velvet, satin, maire, plush, chamoie and kid. One hat shown by Miss McWhort er which was much admired was a I large Gainsborough, made of black moire, trimmed with one handsome | I willow plume which encircled the , ' huge crown, priced twenty-five dol- II lars and was sold to a customer in Rome. Here also were found the Russian i Hussar Turbans in beautiful furs '■ both black and brown. Turbans with crowns of draped silk were also on ’ exhibition, trimmed in wings and jet buckles. Another hat which at tracted much attention was made of 1 tan colored chamoie, trimmed in r black aud tan with wings, and yet another was of catauba calored silk velvet trimmed in handsome plumes. In the elegant millinery parlors of Cleghorn, Henry & Co., Miss Potts gave the throng of buyers the most I courteous attention possible, and . showed some beautifully trimmed hats. Among them is a very large hat of white kid, having the broad -1 brim underfaced with black velvet, trimmed with velvet loops, two white wings, a jet buckle and priced SB.OO. A child's hat of white French felt was shown, having the crown of white plush softly draped and held . in position by plush covered buttons. ' Another misses hat which was much > admired had the large crown made 1 of white ribbon basket work, with ’ the brim of white felt, trimmed in 1 loops of white ribbon and white buck 1 le. The favorite hat seemed to be a ’ large Box Turban of black velvet, - trimmed with ribbon and a very hand some ostrich plume of some new ' make up. which was held in place by 1 a jet buckle. In the tastefully appointed parlors ’ a’ Hinton & Co. Miss Fox and a number of helpers were constantly engaged showing the large crowd of prospective and actual buyers the ' fine and varied assortment of worn en’s and children's headgear, prom i inent among which was a big Gains borough hat, trimmed with jet buck les and two long, fluffs, beautifully i curled and fashionably drooping black plumes, priced $25.00 and sold to a . customer in Griffin. | Here also are found the Turbans, the Russians in furs, the Nut Shells in silk and velvet, trimmed beautiful- - ly and reasonably priced for fine nia . terial. A peculiarly shaped hat having f the brim slashed, and underfaced ’ with contrasting color and bent about ’in several directions, handsomely trimmed in the new colors, and call ed the Colonial, was much admired ■ by the ladies. Another hat which received much j attention was sold to a customer in Atlanta, was of moire valour, was trimmed in paradise feathers and was priced $8.50. . There are fine assortments of Mis ses and children' hats aud caps at all the stores. The Bed-Rock of Success lies in a keen, clear brain, backed by indomitable will and resistless en ergy.
