The advertising agency of N. W
Ayer & Son, of Philadelphia, is
unquestionably the largest and
probably the best equipped of any
iu the United States. It has more
aud larger patrons thau any other,
aud, taking oue thing with anoth
er, it is questionable whether they
are not entitled to the credit of
securing for their patrons better
service than can be counted on
from any other. It should be, and
doubtless is, a great sburce of
pride and satisfaction to Mr. Ayer
and McKinuey that they have
beeen able, while remaining in
Philadelphia, to build up a larger
advertising business thau has ever
beeu secured befoie by any adver
tismg agency iu New Y'oik or else
where.
PAULDING FOR ATKINSON.
J. R. Moon, postmaster at Dallas
decided this week that he would
see the democrats of Dallas and
those frem the country as they
came into town to see who they
were for for governor. Up to yes
terday evening he had 68 names ;
56 for Atkiuson and 12 for Evans.
Every man he saw from the
country that had auy choice was
for Atkiuson.

wood needs no introduction at the
hands of the Hustler of Rome
He is in the race aud there to win,
and when he has won aud served
out his term, he will be still dearer
to the people of Floyd than he is to
day—and today he is dear enough
to them to be the one of their
choice.

DEAD SNAKES J ND MARRIAGE
NOTICES.
Heaven preserve us! The rattle
snake season is upon us in full blast.
Henry Richardson, a negro on the
place where the writer learned to
pick blackbenies, killed one last
week that measured about 'four and
a half fee'. Now, this thing has gut
to stop. Last summer it took nearly
one-third of our available space to
i tell of the j a tl< s akes killed, a'd last
winter I cou’dn’t wiite a heavy edi
torial, for the marriage frotices
crowded it out, Thit is to put the
public on notice that no marriage
■otices will be published hereafter
unless accompanied by a piece of
cake big enough to make a slice
around for seventeen children, and
the death of a snake will not be no
ticed unless he is 18 feet long and
has three church bells and an iron
safe for rattles,
WHY WOMEN ARE NOT INSURED.
Here is a singular fact that re
flects rather b dly upon our wo ks
and masters. Among the insur
ance people th' re is constant con
troversy as tn the advisability of
taking risks on women's lives.
Very conservative companies re
fuse them in toto, while others is
sue such policies under certain
reservations and restrictions. For
example, no company will insure
a wife’s life in favor of hi r husband
while ninetenths of the policies
issued to men are for the benefit
of their wives. When cross-ques
tioned on this point au officer of
a great life insurance concern
evaded an answer, but finally con
fessed that they feared man’s abus
ing their opportunities. I simp’y
state facts and leaves individua s
to draw conclusions. —American

IIANDWRIGHTINC ON THE WALL.
The following isan extract from
9, letter written by Honorable H .
W. J, Ham, while in Atlanta, to
his paper, the Georgia Cracker:
“You might think, to read the
Constitution that they do not see
the haudwrightiug on the wall,
but they do. for oue of the editors
told a friend of mine a few days
since, that it was the hardest job
they had ever undertaken to evoke
any enthusiasm for Gen. Evans.
A good friend of mine, who works
on the paper, told me that there
was no doubt about it, that the
thing was all coming Atkiuaon’s
way now, and he believed he would
be nominated.
To day they print it in a promi
uent place, on their editorial page,
a communication from some oue
advocating the bringing out of a
third man, saying that the pgriple
are not satisfied with either!.
can take down the Gen. Ijmhey
want to, but as they did n* put
Atkinson up, they cann ol take him
down. His friends will stand pat .’
WATCH OUT FOR HIM.
One day last week Mr. Frank
O’Brien of Atlanta, member of the
Atlanta Evan’s club came to Gains
ville, had a confidential conversa
tion with the parties he was sent
here to see, weut from here to
Dawsonville, theuce to Dahlonega,
and from thereto White county.
He did not state the nature of the
confidential mission save to those
to whom he had been specially sent-
Mr. O ( Brien will be remembered
as the same plausible young citi
zen who went over the State of
Georgia seveial years ago in the
interest of General Gordon when
he was a candidate for governor
and who. when the general was
elected, was made solicitor of the
city court of Atlanta iu acknowl
edgement of his able services in
that campaign. Frank O’Brien is
a clever fellow and a good talker
and one of the oldest rats in the
barn.
But we rise to remark that the
people of northeast Georgia are
able to manage their own affairs
without any dictation from any
Atlanta lawyers, and they will do
it, too. We are net iu the least
uneasy that Mr. O'Brien will do
any damage in this neck of the
wood’s but we simply mention h.'s
little picnic trip so you can watch
for the developments which may
follow. By keeping your weather
eye open you may find cut what
use the Evan’s club of Atlanta has
for that big campaign fund which
it raised a tew days since.—Geor
gia Cracker.
