PIGS 18 PIGS.
To The Herald:
We were chattlnß, ahe and !. over
our flret course at dinner. Wo lived
at one of the supposedly first-class
hoarding houses on Greene Street.
Hhe was a bachelor girl of refine
ment, while I boasted a long line of
nncentors. most of the early members
being known as pirates, I believe.
Yet the line was there.
"1 wonder why Mr. Jones persists
In lying his napkin around his neck?"
she whispered. "Any one would sup
pose he was preparing for a shave or
a hair cut.” I glanced at the offen
der, and he certainly was decked out
like a.i-year-o|d In a high chair. He
was going to protect that shirt bosom
at all costs.
Further down the table sounds could
be heard suggesting Mrs. Porker look
ing for her evening meal In a particu
larly slushy pen. It was Smith en
joying his soup, even If we didn't.
And so It went with nearly every man
around the table. Why Is It that the
manners of the sterner sex are not
on a par with those displayed hy wo
men at meals?
X constantly see fiends conveying
food to their mouth with their knives.
The spoon sticking out of the cup at
all times Is another nerve-racking
sight. Why. some of my landlady's
supporters Ignore the handle entirely,
and by some sort of acrobatic per
formance wind I heir fingers around
the spoon, and then manage to drink
their coffee.
Thare Is a married couple at our
table, she as dainty as you please, he
a veritable hog.
"X)o you Imagine that she could love
such an animal?” asked my
companion, as desert wus served. No,
a thousand times, no. Just then, Mr.
Johnson took this pie In his hand,
picnic style, and the bachelor girl
gave a little shriek and fled to the
porch.
Must have all happened In a railroad
contractor's lodging house, you re
mark? 1 gave you the location In the
first paragraph.

A LETTER TO THE ABBOCIATED
CHARITIEB.
To the Herald:
The following letter, received this
morula* explains Itself:
Hoard of Directors,
Assorlnted Chitrltles.
Augusta, On.
I have been rending with keen In
terest articles lately appearing In the
local prexs anent the Associated t'har
tles and heartily endorse same,
Too much cannot tie said Itj favor of
the Assoclnted t'harlttoa In' any city
Mid 1 am surprised to learn that Sa
vannah and Jacksonville are about to
lose these valuable organisations
However, that la Savannah's and
Jaeksonvllls's lookout, we are Interest
ed. or should be In helping the local
Associated Charities. Now unfortu
nately my only aid Is not In a finan
cial way for. 1 am "on the other side of
the fence” so to speak that I* Vtn in
the light of a benefletsry against my
will because of conditions that confront
me st present. 1 have a good profes
sion of a literary kind hut am out of a
Joh because the "powers who be" In
rsy line say there ts no opening In
Augusta at present. I have hot nnr-
Sowivl my search to Augusta so far as
writing letters and visiting other
places Is concerned, have done nil a
person could do to get work, and this
hrlngs me to the point of my story
which I wish to bring out for publica
tion
It le sn Incident which happened to
me a few weeks ago 1n a sister city
where 1 had gone to seek work It
proved to he a case of throw pride to
dog.s for hunger was paramount. 1
bad only a It. H. pass snd enough for
a night's lodging an I wnn expecting
to 'tr ect a friend who would "stake" me
If 1 did not land work which I had ex
eon client reasons to think 1 would do
hut wnn led on a false scent—a two
thirds promise I did not get the po-
Idtton. my friend was out of town on a
vacation. I had not a cent In my pock
•t and the appetite of a horse on a
rainy day, ao I decided to cast pride
to the dogs and seek the associated
charities and explain my needs I
Wonted enough to get breakfast and
dinner for my trnln to Augusta did not
Wave until 8 p. m. It was then 8 a. m.
The secretary of the aaaorlated chari
ties put ms through a searching ex
amination to see how much of a fakir
1 might be It was almost g “third de
gree" and when she finished with me
she knew sll uy history snd a good
part of the history of my family, early
and late However, she said 1 had an
"honest face” nd a hungry - look she
might havs added and that I should
not go hungry so ah* had her under
secretary record wtiut I had said and
gav# me an order on the best res
taurant In the city for hreskflfld snd
dinner. She refused to lefld any cash,
but I gut the breakfast and dinner and
did full Justice to Imth, which were
Charged to the aaslcated charities. I
heartily agree with the system of ques
tioning the applicant, ao much rake
business ts now bring used by the un
scrupulous to defrsud worthy organi
sations snd people.
Had It not la-rn for the associated
charities I would have spent a hungry
day, and I am Indebted to them for my
deliverance and t only wish 1 was so
blessed with worldly goods that I
might aid this worthy Institution In
a financial way and when the golden
opportunity presents Itself to me the
MSorlntrd charities will hear from n e
substantially.

HAVE YOU CATARRH?
It's a Dangerous Disease
Hyoraei is the Easy, Safe
and Rapid Remedy.
Catarrh, which Is usually Indicated
by sniffling, frequent colds, droppings
In the throat, and raising of mucus, Is
u. serious disease because It surely
spreads to the delicate lining of the
air passages, weakens the entire sys
tem. frequently destroying the hearing,
and makes a mental and physical
wreck of Its victims.
It's hr foolish to lake drugs to cure
catarrh ns to swallow a pill to heal a
broken arm. You must have a direct
application • something that will pl|
once reach the diseased tissues, kill the
germ*, and drive out the poison.
Hyomel, that can he had from any
druggist. Is Just such a remedy. Being
a mixture of antiseptic snd healing oils
that you breathe through a small in
haler its health-restoring medication
cannot help going direct to the raw and
Inflamed lining of the nose gnd throat,
quickly relieving that ehoked-up feel
ing, stopping Ihe unclean discharges
from the nose, and healing the sore
spots- you breathe freely. Even the
worse cases respond at one*
There Is nothing for Ihe treatment of
catarrh Ills that is easier, more pleas
ant or so satisfying as Hyomel, and It
Is most Inexpensive. T. O. Howard
