The local service out of Augusta and to other points along the line has noi been Interfered with, save for the necessary small changes In arrivals and departures to make bet ter connections By the new changes through service la being offered to a large section of the country, with the co-operation of the Coast Line and the Southern Rail road, which heretofore lias had no •urh service. This means more trains out of Augusta through the co-opera tion of the Coast Une, the Southern and Georgia Railroad The new management of the Geor gia Railroad la making good Ita prom lae to do what It ran for the upbuild ing of this city and aertlnn, and fur nishing its patrons and the travelling public with a progressive and ade quate railroad service We trust these new changes are but a step In the direction oT through train service, New York to New Or leans, and from Chicago and the West to this section of the South.

From 'The Power of Mental IVmand," by Herbert Edward Isiw, publish ed by Paul Elder and Company. Bnthustasm Is fslth In action. "Faith believeth all things.” Enthusiasm puts that belief to the teat. The enthusiast believes that the thing can be done; he has faith to believe that It ought to be done; he has enthusiasm to do It. To the unthinking, enthusiasm is but the foam on the deeply stirred wa ters. In truth,-It Is the striving of the waters themselves. It Is the very life of effort “CLEAN UP” WEEK Si GET READY T< the Householders of Augusta: llow shout the manure pile on your promises? fs> you keep cowa or horses? If so. what do you do with the stable manure? thi you know, or have >\mi over atopited to think, that the one placa of all others whore the house fly la hrod Is In stable manure? Huppose that you do want to save this manure for fertiliser In the garden or to ex ohango with some oountryman for a load of hedging for your stook, did It ever occur to you that while you are doing thla you are maintaining a hatchery for files, which are always a nuisance to you and to your neigh bor. and frequently an actual aourcefor the dissemination of diseases. The bouse fly lays Its eggs In stable maure. Those eggs In a little while hatch Into magots. and Inalde of fourteen days develop Into full grown files. M odern scientific research has convicted the house fly of being one of the ■non! potent factors In the causation of typhoid fever and a factor of consid erable moment In the production of summer diarrhoea of children, of tuberculosis and of other Infectious diseases The house fly Is indiscrim inate In hi* feeding habits, and routes to your kitchen or your table very often directly from contact contact with every kind of filth. Ills feet are covered with germs which he acquires In his dally rounds, and which hs Is always ready to wipe off uiam any food stuff which Is left before him. As a part of the spring cleaning, we nsk you to do one of two things either get rid of manure pile on your premises, or If It Is so pre cious to you that you cannot part part with It, have a bln constructed. In accordance with the Hoard of Health ordinance, In which you may store your treasure and yet keep files out of It. THE ORDINANCE READS AS FOLLOWS: "No uncovered manure pile wll be permitted in the city limits. Stable manure may ba placed out in the tame manner te other garbage for removal by the scavenger department. , "Any person desiring to keep manure upon their premieet shall provide themselves with a barrel, pit, or bin, which thall ba kept covered at ALL TIMES with wire gaura netting of sufficiently small meth to keep out flies. "All stables shall be cleaned out and provided with fresh bedding whenever ordered by the sanitary inspector." No ordinance can be made fully efficient writhout the active co operation of the people whom It Is intended to protect, As fair-minded rltlfcena of some sense of civic responsibility, we nsk you to reflect wheth er or not li Is right for you to man tain upon your premises a hatchery for flies Wouldn’t II be n good plan to get |l all out now. and after ten days practice in removing your manure dully ua garbage,' wouldn't ft lie worth while to keep the pra< lice up all summer?

THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA. GA. The Manicure Lady By WILLIAM F. KIRK. “There was some play In town here about a old Persian guy that madu tents and was » wine booster, wasn’t there, George?" asked the Manicure Lady, "I think 1 heard my wife Maying something about It,” said the Head Barber, "hut I didn't pay no particu lar attention to It Why?" "Oh, brother Wilfred haa gone kind of looney over It," aald the Manicure 1-ady. "I think he seen It, or read a lot about It or something. Anyhow, nil we hear around the house now Is Omar. Omar, or Wine, Wine. Alter he talked t.he old man deaf and blind about It, he started In on the rest of us, and I don't know where ull of it Is going to stop. He was telling us more dope ahout the old guy Inst night, lie said that Omar not only made some perfectly grand tents to go camping out In, but that he wrote swell poetry, too. He recited some of it to ue, hut me and May me couldn’t make any head or tall to It Here Is one of the verses he wrote down Listen and see U you can make any sense out of It. "Up from earth's center to the Seventh (late, I passed, and on the throne of Saturn sate. And many a knot did I unravel there, But not the mastern knot of Human fate." "Don't bother me with li,” said the Head Barber impatiently. "IT you can’t talk about something in this country, don't talk at all.” “I knew you wouldn't be able to make no head or tall to It," said the Manicure l.aoy, “but I wasn't Rolng to bother you with no more of the Per sian feller's poetry. I only wanted to r< ad you gome verses of the same me teor, or whatever Wilfred calls it. Ho wrote them himself, and I know you will listen to them to please me, won't you George,' There ain't any customers coming Along, and you got all the time In the world.” "I suppose I will have to listen,“ said the Head Barber with desperate courage "(In ahead.” "This is them," said the Manicure I-ady. "Why should the people of the pres ent day Want to read poetry written Tar away Ixmg years ago. wrote by some Jer sian gent. When I am writing poetry that will stay ? 1 sometimes think that I will write no more. Although I hate to make my readers sore. For every poem of mine my readers read I know that they would like to read a score. And thnt is why I write and still shall write Until the coming of the Eternal Night, But oh. 1 wish that 1 could sell my stuff BILL GETS A JOB "Not on your life." said Bill. "That I stuff has caused me enough worry for i the time being.” The next day Bill met his friend at : noon time "Well, BUI," said JjiA friend, "I’ve got some good news for , you I got Tired when I went back to ; the Job this morning, so you hike over there and tnavbe you can get it. But don't tell 'em you know me, for it w on't help you any " Bill told hint how sorry he was. biit his friend said; "Oh. I guess l had it coming to me all right. If I'd let the booze alone Because I have an awful appetite." "I'm glad you got through reading that. 1 was Just going to atop you. said the Head Barber. "I think It sounda Juat aa good a* that Persian feller's poetry," declar ed the Manicure Lady "And It la a lot easier to understand.' "Tiie only hard thing to understand about It," said the Head Barber, "la why he wrote It at all. Ah, hero comes a live one!" Beginning Again The poem Is without title, but tho first slnnzu reads thus: I wish that thfere were oolite wonderful place Called the Land of Beginning Again. Where all our mistakes and all our heartachea And all of our poor selflah grief Could be dropped, like a shabby old rout, at the door. And never be put on again. I guess this wish Is about as com mon among folks generally as the de sire for three meals a day. Yet— If you are a-wishing some wonderful place Called the Land of Begin l - Rain. Where all your ounsW yopr stumbles If)'' And sll of ye ..row and pain Could bo dro m<- a shabby old coat, at the door. Nevermore to be worn among men— Let me tell you, my friend, that Jugt such a fine place • Is next door to the house where you live — Next door to the house whose front poreh Is your face. And whose walls are the efforts you give To be honest and kind and to do your work well And help others live while you live! Its limits are boundless; there's room for each one Who wishes a home in that land. And whatever you’ve done or have left all undone Doesn't matter —your dwelling is planned Bo that when you go in you put off all' the things That have mocked you on every hand. The name of this wonderful land is TODAY, The road to its gate is your will, When your .mind is made up you are well on the way- But your Journey Is fruitless until You know In your soul that the past Is stone dead And that all your regretting Is nil. Yes, NOW, at this moment, you stand at the gate To the Land of Beginning Of course, If you choose, you may falter and wait. But It's mighty poor policy when You can enter with such a small key as "I WILL” And make a fresh start among m§n. It Is never too late To start in on the way; For however you wait It is always TODAY’— Tho Land of Beginning Again! everything would have been all right. But 1 didn’t. Bill, so now you'll beat It over there and see if you can’t spear the job—for re’ve got to eat, y' know." Bill went “over." landed a joJ>—-not us good as the one his friend had held, ! hut It was a start, any way. And he was to start In the next morning. That night he wrote a long letter to his mother and one to Emily, telling them of his good fortune. H. C. (To Be Continued.)

From the Haverhill Gazette. If you wish to understand the liv ing actiivitles of men—and of women— and what the modern crowds on the modern streets are after, read the ad vertisements. The beginnings of homes and of new and perhaps remar kable families are to he found in the "want columns.” These columns are always full of romance in the rough. To save postage an American editor tore all the advertisements from a hatch of papers before sending them to Kipling The novelist and poet re monstrated by return mail "Don't tear the advertisements. I like them best. I can write the stories myself.” Think for a moment what the mod ern newspaper would be without Its advertisements, of how much less val ue it would be to the historian of the future, of how much smaller value to the purchaser of today! Countless persons have learned to await the an nouncements of the sellers of what they have to offer before they think of making their regular or irregular purchases. Without these announce ments they would be at a loss. The advertisements are an index of the activities of trade. They tell its story in a sprightly and often an il lustrated form and with definite de tail. The man or the firm that put the most brain Into its advertising, and uses the best brain in placing his ad vertisements, Is the one that will get the best return from the labor and the expenditure. Thus, advertising has become almost a definite science, but like work in so many of the sciences it needs some of what has been called the "scientific imagina tion.” It needs a kind of Napoleonic boldness to grasp special situations and crisis, and, by a massing of forces to turn i>osslble defeat into sure vic tory. Advertising is not only a science, it is a gdod deal of a knack. Why is it that you rend one man's advertise ment with interest and avidity, and are almost repelled by that of another? It lies in the knack of presenting the material. To be a great novelist, or a great advertiser requires genius. Somebody has said that genius is an infinite capacity for taking pains. But this Is not all. It is hard work backed by a little scientific imagination and by what other ingredients of the kind one can get into It. FASHION SHOCKS. (New York Press.)

This season's mannequins actually appeared in gowns which accord per fectly with low heels and high prin ciples. There were no impressionis tic blouses, no sleeves on the half shell, no hats that look as If they were in the high seas of a hang-over, no waistlines with an exaggerated ego. Result; A decent gown cre ated the biggest sensation of the day, solely because of its novelty! It would not be surprising to sea the style pendulum swing from the present custom of wearing only the scenario of a dress back to the kind mother used to make. Yet there are some gowns to be observed, perfectly decorous, but looking like a bunch of balloons, flying from strings in the street faker’s hand.
