Nut only pay yourself, but pass along the good work, keep the dollar moving on Saturday If everybody In Augusta were to Join In such a movement, the trade records for the city would be broken.

Theodore Roosevelt is standing against a force that Is stronger than he Is and more certain than guns. There Is no dispute on hand con cerning the value of arms in support of honor. The question Mr. Roosevelt causes to rise up In the minds of Americans Is whether arms are to be valued because they enable nations to make light of their pledges to one another? FACTS Feed, sugar, salt, coffee, rice, beans, and many other articles of merchandise are put up In burlap bags. The burlap for the purpose origi nates In India In enormous yardage. At the present time the ships accus tomed to bring burlap cloth and raw Jute across the seas are unable to load and sail for foreign ports. The short stock In this country has opened up « field for a burlap substitute which can best be filled by the production of cotton cloth. If cotton mills act quickly, and the consumer demands that sneked commodities shall be In cotton cloth Instead of anything else. WILL YOU HELP? Millions upon millions of pounds of cotton are Involved. The South needs a home market for cotton this year ns Europe cannot take her usual supplies. Help the cotton planters and all the South by Insisting your supplies must be packed in cotton bngs PETERS QUALITY FEEDS Can be obtained from dealers pack ed In cotton hags DETAILS FOR COTTON MILLS. Aa a substitute for burlap the stapls uaed for bag cloth, requires good long fibre for strength, without reference to color. 40-INCH GOODS Will be demanded tn the largest yardage, and course counts as low as 40x40 will serve most purposes In weight w hich wo limit to 3«0 yard. Some may risk their requirements to weights 50 to 00 points lighter. TO THE CONSUMER. The cotton hng Is much more useful for many purposes and the assistance given the South will be a neighborly act deserved and appreciated. TO THE COTTON PLANTER. Accept this tribute of our good will In this period of uncertainty with tha hope the effort will bring results to you tn proportion to our sincerity. M. C, PETERS MllJ, CO. Omaha, Nebraska USING A BIG NAME. To dispel confusion we make men tion of the fact that there ta In thla old state of Georgia, a certain follow ing of the Hull Moose party, which preferring the name of 'Progressives" to Hull Moosltes. so call themselves There ts also in Georgia a division tn the democratic party, which Is of a more or less changing and uncertain character and somewhat Indefinite. FURS Some one has estd that furs make a plain woman beautiful and a beautiful woman ravishing. Thai may be a bit of poetic extravagance, but there ta no question but furs enhance the costume and add to the beauty of the face. The average woman does not buy furs as she doe* a D*«f hat-with the thought that If It 1* not satisfactory she van easily get another. She buy* them after careful consideration and selection, because if means a large ex penditure of money and. therefore, must be made to last several season*. It Is also true that the average woman docs not know very much concerning fur value. It is. therefore, neces sary that ah* buy* from only reliable fur dealers. In the advertising columns of The Herald are to be seen the announcements of fur sale* by reliable merchants In almost every edition. INDOOR SPORTS between what Is called the progres sive and reactionary way. The re actionaries call themselves progres sives. The progressive democrats call themselves progressives and those who have Joined the Theodore Roose velt wing of the protective tariff par ty call themselves progressives. What’s In a name? A very "good writer,” named Shakespeare by some and Bacon by others, asked this ques tion and answered It, saying: “That which wo call a rose, by any other name would smell as sweet.” The trou ble Is there are a great many people who get no guidance from their ol factory senses, and with them the name of a thing counts as much as Its essence. "Progressive” Is a big name but like all very big things it means dif ferent things to different minds. Crimes have been committed In the name of liberty. Even at this time human life and human works are being destroyed In the name of God. Let us not therefore be mlßled by falsely applied labels. The vial that contains poison may be*labelled "Life” but it's contents lose nothing of their potency because of the label. The Bull Moosltes In Georgia are cherishing fond hopes of forming the antagonism which has grown out of the recent political campaign and the hard feeling cherished by those who failed to direct the steam roller of the Macon convention according to their Wills The people of this state have to meet one Important quostlon. Is the break between democrats so complete ns to give the republican party an entrance Into Georgia's political life? For call It as wo may. the Roosevelt division Is nothing but the old party of privilege and special favor, frilled up with fantasies of pseudo socialism and shorn of African barriers. Mr. G. R. Hutchens of Rome Is to oppose Mr. Hardwick, the nominee of the democratic party for the short term, while Mr. C. M. McClure Is to oppose Senator Hoke Smith. We wish these gentlemen a merry run for thfflr money. The result of these efforts will, at least, serve to make clear the point ns to what Georgia voters understand by the word pro gressive.

On e when the Fairy Queen was all alone and the fairies were flitting about doing good the Queen began thinking how much she was alone. "I never have a chance to see things as the other fairies do.’ she said “and 1 never had a vacation In all my Ilfs. There are many things I should like to see and know about. I should like to visit the land where the goblins live and s'e how they make things grow." The Queen sat very still for a few minutes and then she jumped up from the leaf where she was swinging. ”1 will do it." she said. "I am sure I can disguise myself so they will never suspect." “Now. how will I dress.” she thought. “I must he taller or they will not let me In. I will go to old Witch Sindok and ask her advice." "So you wish to visit the land of the Goblins?" said the witch when she heard the Queen's story. "To do so with any degree of safety you will have to assume another form," she told her. “and 1 think that a white robhlt would be the best.” The Queen consented, and witch Sindok waved her crooked stick over the little Queen and said: Ton shall neither bark nor bite. And your fur be soft and white. And tn place of the Queen there appeared a soft white rabblL with FOUND BUSINESS NORMAL IN LONDON IN MOST LINES. Franklin Johnston Say* Money I* Cheaper Than In New York. “The etorles from London and Paris of business and financial conditions there two months ago have produced a very erroneous Impression of what these conditions are at tha present time," said Franklin Johnston, co publisher of the ''American Exporter,” just returned by the Minnehaha, after three weeks spent on business In those cities. "Instead of England's business be ing at a standstill, it Is actually dom inated by a good deal more cheerful ness and confidence than here. Mon ey Is more plentiful and cheaper than In New York and, In the words of the London representative of on# of the largest American banking houses, the English banks have more money than they know what to do with.' "The policy of 'business as usual* has been a great success and the pub lic has absolute confidence and there Is no hoarding of gold. I went to England prepared to pay gold for everything, but In several cases found the people actually preferred paper. “American business men who are holding back their plans In the belief that the war will be over In a few weeks would change their views If they visited England. No one In Eng land expects the war to be over for two or three years." GARDEN CALENDAR FOR OCTO BER. Prepare beds for fall planting. Plant hyacinths tulips, daffodils, and all hardy bulbs.

"Now you are ready for your Journey,’’ said the witch, ** but do not be too wise or those clever Goblins will see through your disguise.” The Queen, or the rabbit, as twe shall call her now, promised to be careful, and off she ran to a moss covered rock. Knocking three times upon the rock, she called: "Suot-' nepo.’ The rock opened and in she ran. “Who enters our home?" some one called, and from all directions came the goblins. When they saw White Rabbit one of them asked: "How did you know our password? The rock never would have opened without It.” White Rabbit had not thought of that; she had learned It when she was in her natural state of Fairy Queen from an old goblin whom she had helped, but how was she to explain her entrance to the goblins, and they were looking at her with suspicion in every feature. "Please," said White RabblL very meekly, "I wanted to visit the home of the very W4se goblins, so I listened one day and heard one of your num ber speak the magic words. But If you do not wish me to stay,” she said, "I will go away at once." The goblins talked together for a few minutes, and then one of them said: “We w r ill show you our homes, but you must stay here for one year, and In that time you will forget the magic words, for If they are not used during that time they cannot be re membered.” Of course she could not protest, for the goblins were already suspicious, and If they were to discover her Iden tity she feared It would go hard with her. So she said: “I shall he glad to stay In your wonderful land for a year, and I think you are very kind to keep a guest so long.” But all the time she was wondering how she could escape, for she felt sure that the goblins suspected she w'as not a rabbit from* the way they looked at her.
