Notice.
¥ The law says that all legal prin
ting must be paid for in advance,
and in the futare the Hazlehurst
News will strictly adhere to
this rule, PUBLISHER.
At present there are 72 ciyil
cases on our Superior Court
docket and 45 criminal cases. All
of these cases will be tried by
Jury. ‘
Atlanta did the square thing
by President-elect Taft during his
visit to shat city last week. The
newspaper boys had lots to
write about, and they put it on
good and strong. ' ‘
The Georgia convict who ser
ved fourteen years in the pen
ilentiary and came out with SBOO
which he had earned by working
overtime has shown us how it is
possible to save meney. Any-
J%ody can do it who can break
into the penitentiary.
™ We contemplated on helping
entertain Billie Taft during the
’possum supper in Atlanta last
Fridav night, but our wash-wo
man failed to bring inour other
‘shirt in time, consequently we
;were prevented from attending.
f Senator Tillman says he i 3
going to have an investigation of
the President’s charges against
him even if he has to move for
it himself. This is the way tc
talk. The anxiety of the Senator
for an .investigation show that
he feels sure of a favorable re
port.
We note with pleasure the
name of S. A, Fackler editor and
publisher, at the* masthead of the
Huzlehurst News. The business
manager of the Journal is person-
Sy acq vainted with Mr. Fackler,
and the people of that section
have a man at the helm of the
News who knows how to run a
“newspaper which will be a credit
to Hazlehurst. Mr. Fackler wrote
and published a bock last year
entitled: “Ups and Downs of a
County Editor—Mostly Downs,”’
which was purchased and read
by people all over Florida and
and South Georgia. A big-heart
ed, honest,} conscientious man is
Sam A, Fackler, and we are in
deed glad to have him as a close
heighbor.—Broxton Journal.
¥ We highly appreciate the above
bouquety from Bro. Borland,fof
the Broxton Journal. We both
published papers for many years
in different parts of Florida, and
we can Ivouch for this fact, that
Broxton has an up-to-date news
baper man in its town in the
person of Mr. Borland, and if
the business men of that place
are wise, they. will patronize The
Journal liberally and keep him
there. :
Let us enter upon the new
year with strong hope for the
good that is to come to us and
the good that we are to bring to
others. Let us be ‘“‘very!courage
ous’” to fight against , the evil
that we find in ourselves and
that which threatens others. Let
us have pdtience in well-doing
and be persevering in our efforts,
being assured that our ‘‘labor
shall not be in vain.” Let us not
be “high-minded’” or ‘‘vainglor
jous,” but ready with meekness
to receive instruction that we
may grow in knowledge. Let us
be fervent in spirit, living in con
stant communication with God,
while we serve him with diligence
Let us love each other even
s Chrigt hath loved us, there
&b@ no occasion of stumbling,
the work will be blessed of

The Bloom on the Egg.
»] know these eggs at least are
fresh,” said the young housewife. “As
I took them from the basket a white
bloom, ltke the down of a peach, came
off on my hands?’
Her husband, a food expert, gave a
sneering laugh.
“In that case,” be sald, “I'll forego
my usual morning omelette, That
ploom, my dear, proves your eggs to
be a year or so old—maybe four or
five years old.
“The bloom, as you S 0 poetically call
it, 4s Nme dust. It gshows that the
eggs are pickled. Lime dust, which
rubs off like flour, is the surest test
we have for pickled eggs—a not um
wholesome article, but not to be com
pared with the new laid sort.”-—~New
