His hands should he and undoubtedly will he strengthened by an overwhelming vote of confi dence In the coming primary. Georgia Ueu ocrutH will not weaken the democratic administration by re tiring one of its ablest supporters in the V H senate In this juncture. ON THE JOB. New York and Liverpool are on the job preparing means to finance and to transport the cotton crop and the other crops of this country. A few Kliort weeks and the nations of the world will experience a famine in the supplies furnished by this country unless means are arranged to finance and to export the raw materials need ed from this country Bra til hits already chartered steam era to ply In the American trade with the U.

Belgium, Holland and other countries will soon hake ships engaged In the American trade. The commerce of this country la too vital to the needs of the world to be be held up and hampered. European war makes It doubly so AUGUSTA BANKS AND THE COT TON CROP I,mml year government funds were offered tiie A igustn hunks to hsslh 4 . Ut the cotton crop movement. Many southern cities took advantage of this offer and secured gtverntnenf funds Augusta hanks were to well supplied with funds that they did nor tall upon the government for a 6oi j Imp. Augusta did not handle ss much cotton Inst year ns she should and could have handled. Per ha pa it wag I the fact that other clttea and othet cotton firms had more abundant fund* to handle the movement, that caused cotton which should have come to Augusta elo go to other points Columbia banka have already made nirangementa to secure half a mil lion or more of government fund* to I handle the crop movement. This is going to draw cotton and trade to Columbia, other cities in the south will follow suit. While Augusta banka are in splen did condition nnd with plenty of money, vet the cotton factors and ex porters of this city, will be at n dis tinct disadvantage if the funds avail aide for handling the crop at Augusta are not ns large and as easily avail able mb they are in nearby and com peting cities Augusta can not retain or Increase its cotton trade unless it is prepared to meet this competition. Augusta hanks should take advan tMge of the government's offer this yaar to secure government fund* to handle the crop movement in this ter ritory.

PETER AND THE MOUNTAIN OF GOLD—PART 1. Pplit was a little orphan boy. and lie llvni all alone In a little house A little garden which grew In front was all that supported Peter, for hla vege tables were the nicest for miles around. One day while he was working he saw something shining in the earth where he was digging, and when he stooped to pick it up he saw it was a hean, but very different from any Pe ter had ever seen. It was yellow like gold. As he turned it over In his hand he hiard something rattle Inside it. He crushed It .between his thumb and fin ger, and a tiny key dropped his hand That was gold color also. All day while he was at work Peter thought of the key and what it might unlock. When night came he was still thinking about it, nnd after he finished his supper he could not go to bed, the thought of the key made him so wide awake. "I'll go into the woods." said Peter. "That is where the fairies are. and perhaps I will see them and find out about the key and what it unlocks.” But lie dhl not ace the faries. In stead he walked so far that he found himself In a strange part of the coun try, where there were hills and moun tains and rivers, and where It was daytime instead of night, as it had been when he started from his home. As he looked about Peter saw in the distance a mountain that looked dif ferent from the others—it was bright like the color of gold. "That is the color of the , key." thought Peter, hurrying toward It: and before he had gone far. although the THE WAYS OF THRIFT (Copyrighted. 1»14, American goefety for Thrift.)

A bright light flashed in front of his eyes,, which made Peter blink, and when he opened his eyes again he saw a door in the mountain, and looking closer, saw a tiny key hole. Peter took the key from his pocket and tried it. He heard a faint click as i# turned the key Rnd the door aliened. He stepped inside and the door was closed behind him. Peter was a little timid when he realised he was a pris oner. but a bright light and a cheery voice saying, "Come this way,” soon ended his fear. When Peter came nearer the light, he saw it was a lantern carried by a little man in a funny little brown suit with a long beard. “You were pretty hard to get here." said the little man. smiling, "I was afraid we would have to try some oth er way.” "I suppose I might have appeared to be more interested,” said Peter, "but you see I have to attend to my garden before anything, as I have to keep it in good condition. But why do you want me to come here?” he asked. “You shall soon hear.” said the lit tle brown man, "but first come and meet my brothers.” He led Peter along a path and pres ently they came ta a little village. I say little because' the houses were small, and the trees, and Peter saw many little men like his companion running toward them. Peter wondered what all this meant, but he did not ask any more questions. When the little men had gathered around them Peter's companion said: "Now, Peter, we have a proposition to make to you. On the other side of this mountain lives a giant who tramples on all the gardens every year and makes the people suffer for food be cause lust as soon as thev get their vegetables growing well this giant comes down from the mountain and in a single night, with big feet, he has has crushed their gardens bevond helpp. "What we want is that you should go to his cave and steal his boots He will not lie able to walk without them and as there is not enough leather in the land to make him another pair for a long time we think we can find some way to be rid of him before he can get another pair." But what can I do to help you with a giant?" asked Peter. "I am only a little boy." (Continued Tomorrow.! (Copyright, 1914. by the McClura Newspaper Syndicate, New York City.)
