Here are some of the acquisites of the tele phone. , Smelled Breath Over Phone As stated last week, the telephone line from here to Gainesville, just finished, being rebuilt by Mr. R. C. Meaders is in splendid fix, better now than ever before. The manager held his watch up to the phone in Gaines viile the other day and Mr. Meaders could hear it ticking at this end of the line —25 miles. And later we talk-j ed with Brother Harve Craig down there, and he said that he did not only recognize our voice but smelled our breath, and we had not been drink ing either popskull liquor or eating’ onions; nothing but our real pure very delicious breath went to him, over this most excellent line. It is a great pleasure for us to know that, the one who did this work in such satisfactory manner was born and raised in Dahlonega and expects to remain here. —Dahlonega Nugget. Can See Speaker.

It has, however, fallen to the lot of two Danes, brothers named Ander-' son, to be the first to invent an ap-i paratus by means of which it is pos sible to see what is going on at the other end of a telephone wire. The details of the invention are naturally! kept secret, but there appears to be! no doubt as to its genuineness. An! engineer of high repute has just test ed the claims of the Andersons, and me expert declared the claim to be entirely justified. The process is described as entire ly new and very simple. It differs front the Korn and other systems of photo-telegraphy, inasmuch as it makes no use of photography, hut transmits light and colors directly. Any one speaking at a telephone fit ted with the apparatus can be seen from ahe other end of the wire, and h e likewise ca n show anything he likes across the wires. The Andersons L_j-e taken eight years to probe the mystery. They are of humble parentage—the sons of saddler at Odense—and are aged 28 and 30, respectively. throng was jolly and good natured, but no unusual disorder was noticed.

Exchange Joltings Reports of the formation of a strong bearish clique in New York caused prices to take a tumble on the opening Tuesday. New York opened 15 points below Monday’s close, and gradually slacked away five points lower. There is a well-defined feeling, though, that there will bo a better tendency later on.

WHY BHE WANTED THEM. The tall girl smiled in some em barrassm*nt. "Have you any second-hand shoes?’’ she said 'to the shoe clerk. "But, miss " he remonstrated. "No, no; you misunderstand,'' said she. "I don't mean to wear. 1 Just mean old shoes, too worn for use, that customers have left with you. YOU see, there's a wedding up at our house tomorrow, and we want something to throw at the bride and groom.” "I see,” said the clerk. He rummaged In a. black hole and drew forth an armful of dilapidated footwear. The gtrl selected some threes, twos and ones. "These will do. Thanks ever so much,” she said, arid so departed. "Big footed people are always work ing that on us," said the clerk after ward. "That girl wears eights, She couldn't very well throw such mud scows at the bride, so she chose some ilttie and dainty shoes here —onep and twos.

Depositing Money ' Tilts is a serious problem and one that needs careful inves tigation. Not only because of the fear of losing the deposit because of careless or inefficient administration, but because of the service, or, perhaps, because of the little courtesies com monly expected of every banking institution. Tho smoothness with which all business of the MER CHANTS BANK is conducted, is the best evidence that all relations between this bank und Its depositors are mutually satisfactory. MERCHANTS BANK GEORGIA FRUIT EXCHANGE DID MOST EXCELLENT WORK ATLANTA, Ga.—The statement of the Georgia Fruit Exchange, issued Tuesday, allows that, a total of 2,062 cars were shipped through the ex change during the season. 32 mar kets were entered. A financial statemnet and an audit by expert accountanae will be sub mltted to the trustees of the exchange in September prior to the annual close of the fiscal year in October. Although the exchange handled a light, crop, a net income over the ex ponses both of organization (which were considerable) and of operation, will be shown. The question of reorganization will also be handled at the September meeting, and 11. is expected that the! cantaloupe growers of Florida, Geor gia and South Carolina, as well as the watermelon growers, will be ask ed to co-operate. The report says that there was some opposition to the exchange on the purl of New York commission houses which, under the plan of dis tribution of the exchange, did not get as many peaches as would have been the case without organization. In this connection, Manager Fleming says: "The management of the exchange! Is pleased to be able to say that in its opinion l liis opposition does not extend beyond the New York market, and the latter’s opposition Ik easily explained in Hie statement allnr.hed, which shows I hut less than 42 pet! cent, of the crop was handled in New! York, and a fair estimate of the f. oJ b. portion of the 360 cars would no: doubt lie 60 per cent. It is not be-1 ileved that the opposition to the ex change in New York extends to all of the soiling agents for the reason! that it would have been natural to ex pect, that tho houses would have re signed the agency rather that, occupy tho position of disloyalty lo the oth ! er party of the contract. Ho it would appear to be the course of wisdom on the part of the exchange to Ignore certain rumors, and pursue the oven tenor of our way until such time as It becomes advisable to take up the reorganization work " Following is the exchange’s state ment showing total number of cars shipped, the markets, and the number of cars received In each market.
