Try The Sunny Side
Get out of the gloom of the shade and bask in
the glare of the mid-day sun.
Force the wrinkles from your brow and turn
on the smiles.
Life is what we make it—and business is a big
part of the great game of life.
Down in the Valley of Doubt and Despaii
hang heavy the mists of vanquishing hope and
threatening failure.
Out in the open spread the glorious Plains of
Peace and Prosperity.
IPs all in the viewpoint—in the color of the
glass through which you view, as it swiftly pass
es, Life’s Daily Parade.
Throw off the foggers—with eyes unhampered
look again toward the East and there you’ll see
the Star of Hope that ever shines with becoming
brilliancy for the man who will but look.
Shake off the shackles of doubt and despair
step into the sunshioe —forget the meaning of
pssimism and panic.
This is a good old world to live in. OPTIS is
the one GREAT nation of them all. The sun
shine of prosperity is as bright today as yester
day. Get out of tho shade and—
TRY THE SUNNY SIDE. !
—E. F. Gardner.
SPORTITORIAL
Mr. Jake Wells, president of the Virginia League, is in the city. One
of the first persons he saw was Secretary Farr, of the Augusta club, who
laid before him the proposition to play a post-season series between
the pennant-winning teams of the Virginia and tlje South Atlantic
leagues.
Mr. Wells thinks it an exceient idea, but he declares that the series
should be played under official contract and regulation, else It would
turn out to be a barn-storming affair of no consequence or interest to
the fans in either league. ‘The players should be kept under contract.,
and the games should be officially recognized by the National Commis
sion. In short, it should be a miniature world’s series, subject to the
same general regulation.” Mr. Weiss agreed to confer with the direc
tors of his league upon returning home, and it is altogether probable,
that the plan will go through.
If you see a "big leaguer” friend limping as if he’d been run through
a cotton gin, you may just figure him out as a candidate for some posi
tion on either the "Fat” or “Lean” team. If he is a gentleman of worthy
advoirdupois, it goes without saying that he has lined up with the for
mer; while If his weight is not above the average and he "hath a lean
and hungry” look you may expect to see him wear a "Lean” uniform
in a benefit game the two outfits are busily engaged in framing up.
"The leans were down at the park practising yesterday,” said Sec
retary Farr, captain of that team, 'and they are showing up in good
form. We wont through some fast work, and rivalry between the can
didates is very keen. We'll be down frequently between now and the
day for the game, and we expect to show up the ’Fats' in great style.”
Captain Farr’s enthusiasm is shared by his followers. He will do
the firing line honors, and is already brushing up on his curves. Mr.
Haskell Jordan avows that he has already ousted Mr. Charlie Wilson
from competition. “But it cost me a mighty sore foot,” he complained,
as he limped up to the soft drink counter.
Now you can just jot it down on your engagement card that this set
to between the “Fats” and “Leans” will be the greatest freak game ever
pulled off in this section. Within the next week or so there will be more
tnan one "benefit” for the milk and ice fund, and all the games will be
well worth seeing, but this contest is worth traveling a distance to see.
In addition to the regular nine-inning game, there will be numerous field
day stunts, including sprints and dashes, long throws beating out bunts
running around the bases, etc.
The Charleston Y. M. C. A. team brought a large and enthusiastic
crowd of rooters into the city on an excursion today, and the game at
Warren Park this afternoon with the Augusta Y. M. C. A. will be an ex
act reproduction of the stirring contests that were always the occasion
for widespread interest in the days before the South Atlantic League
was organized. For several days the tickets have been going fast, and
there will be one of the largest crowds of the season in attendance.
The Tourists will only play one game in Knoxville this afternoon.
It will be necessary to call it at 2:30 in order to catch a train, and for
that reason a double-header was impossible. From Knoxville Count Cas
tro leads the bunch to Columbus, one of the longest and most expensive
jumps in the season. The distance is upwards of 105 miles, and there
will be change of cars twice. It will be a hard, tiresome trip, and will
leave the team in bad shape for the first game.

Just One More Hint
From Thg Firing Line
Advertising is not a “game"—lt is not a "hit-or-miss” -propo
sltlon—lt does not rest upon a theory by which you calculate
your chances of losing.
Advertising is just plain, common-sense business—the mod
ern method of salesmanship the tried and proven system of dol
lar coining and business building.
The Augusta Herald offers you a plain, distinct business prop
osition. Briefly stated. The Horald offers you the best and big.
gest circulation in Augusta—it offers you the most homes and
the largest number of prosperous people and possible customers.
Herald readers are alert and energetic. They believe in The Her
ald. They read Its news co umna and they will read your ad
vertisements as well.
Just figure what It would cost you to get a hearing In 5,000
homes in Augusta today—what it would cost you to extend this
to 2,500 more homes of peoplo In the trade territ ry of Augusta,
Figure the oost of printing, the cost of postage, the cost of dis
tribution if oorriers are used and then let The Herald figure with
you what It will coat you to do this work for you In The Herald.
It’s simple and straight, the cost l s so much per thousand,
the cost of printing and of white news, the cost of postage, mail
ing or distributing by city carriers. If it takes 10 boys to deliver
1,000 papers, direct Into the homes of the people each afternoon
ants on Sunday morning, It will take 50 boy* to deliver 6,000.
Your cost per thousand is no more, In reality It grow* less per
thousand as The Herald grows and yet your total coat will be
greater.

NOSE TELLS IF YOU'RE BANE
NEW YORK. —Because she could
not touch her nose with the forefinger
of her right hand at the first attempt,
Magistrate O'Connor, In the Waat
Side court, sent. Mrs. Harriet R. Bor
ry, a trained nurse, living at 100 West,
Forty-fourth street, to Bellevue ho*
pitnl for examination as to her san
>ity.
The woman was taken to eou|t by
Dr. Hugh Kidder, of 245 West Fifty
fourth street, her family physician,
and Dr. Frank W. Robertson, of 411
West End avenue, a state examiner
of persons whose sanity Is suspected,
laid tiie rase before the court.
The testimony did not convlnoo
i..agistrate O'Connor, and after watch
ing her closely, he suddenly exclaim
ed: “Close your eyes, madam.”
Miss Berry did so.
"Touch your nose with the index
linger," commanded Hie magistrate.
Miss Berry tried to do as directed,
but succeeded only after a number
of attempts.
“I grant the application," said Mag
istrate O’Connor, "this test satisfies
me.”
