Give the Young Men a Chance.
From the Savanna); Press.
The Moultrie Observer reads a
lecture to the clergymen of that
town who frown down on every
form of amusement that does not
meet their fancy, card playing,
dancing, baseball, billiards, etc.,
and fail to make any effort to
give, the young men some subsii
tute for those lecreations which
they denouaee as evil in their
tendencies. The ministers seem
to overlook the fact that they
were boys themselves at one time
and did notnanker after the Bi*
ble and early retiring.
No one doubts that some cler¬
gymen are ill advised in their ti¬
rades against what they consider
“worldly” amusements. These
worthy gentlemen, have doubt¬
less found some young man who
laid his run at the door of dans
ing, or cards, or baseball, imme¬
diately conceive that every boy
who indulges in recreations of
this character is at the door of
hell, and with little hope of sal¬
vation. When ^“flinch” was at
the height of its popularity no
doubt many men of the cloth did
not hesitate to allow their chil¬
dren to indulge Jin such innocent
pastime, but the idea of hearts
or euchre is sufficient to awaken
the most intense horror. As a
rule the chief effect of pulpit at¬
tacks on amusements of this na¬
ture is to drive the young men to
card-playing secretly and then,
a3 The Observer intimates, gam¬
bling often ensues, whereas if
played at home, under the super¬
vision uf parental influence, no
harm would have been done.
There is no sin, per-se, in card¬
playing, but the ministars often
fail to appreciate the fact.
In Savannah, where we are
having some excellent ball play ¬
ing this season by professional
teams, ministers are occasionally
seen enjoying the great Ameri¬
can game. If all of the clergy
would take an interest in the
sport they would do themselves
no harm and certainly would
make the young men feel that
there was, after all, some bond of
human sympathy connecting the
pulpit with ordinary mankind.
There is no impropriety in the
clergy feeling an interest in the
amusements of the day, and they
would doubtless have more in*
tluence over the young men of
the community if they did show
some sympathy with the recrea¬
tions in which they indulge. If
any evil tendencies made them¬
selves apparent in the amuse¬
ments of the people would then
be in far better position to direct
attention to them and have them
corrected. It is, unfortunate, too
true that many ministers never
get into close communion with
the people. They baptize them
marry them, preach to them, and
bury them, but never establish
that sense of comradeship, that
close personal relationship
men love and which is suoh a
great factor in lifting them up
when rightly used by men of re¬
ligious power. Perhaps what the
world really needs is a crop
preachers with more red corpul
scles in their blood.

The New County of Henderson.
From the Augusta Chronicle.
A number of the inhabitants of
Worth, Dooly, Wilcox and Irwin
counties, all of them large con¬
sidering the number of square
miles included, are anxious "to
form a new county to be called
“Henderson” and with this end
in view have organized a regular
committee, of which W. A. Shin
gler is chairman, W. A. Hawkins
secretary, T. T. Williams treas¬
urer, and S. B, Hudson and Dr.
T. H. Thrasher the other mem¬
bers, whose object is furthering
the movement in every way.
They have letter-paper with ap¬
propriate business head and a
map of the [ ropossd new county
on the tack.
In an open letter issued by this
committee, it is stated postively
that the addition “will be of ab*
seiutely no expense to the state”
and that “the fertile soil and in¬
creasing population, will make
any new county, a paying in¬
vestment to the state.”
If this be true, there would
seem to bo no conceivable objec¬
tion to the granting of the wishes
of those concerned. There is no
doubt but that many of the coun¬
ty seats in that part of the state
are very irrationally located in
regard to the bulk of the rest Jcf
the counlry, and the nearer the
county seat is to one’s home the
more convenient and economical
it is, of course.
Hence, if the majority of the
people within the confines of the
prospective new county are fn
favor of it, it would appear that
the legislature would not be like¬
ly to oppose them.
Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is Caused by an inflamed con¬
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus¬
tachian Tube. When tins tube is in¬
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en¬
tirely closed, deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can bo taken
out nud this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for¬
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an in¬
flamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars.

ers the reason why there are so
few sheriff sales these days. He
does it thus; “Every fellow has
his stuff fixed up so the sheriff
can’t get at it. The collection
laws are more to blame than the
sheriffs.”—Blakely Reporter.
