Some of the amateur agriculturalists
who are fond of painting the pleasures
and profits of the farmer’s life with a
big brush, should take into considera
tion the remarkable exodus from the
country to the city that the last few
yoars have seen in these United
States. If any class of people may be
supposed to have an accurate knowl
edge of the pleasures and profits of a
farmer’s life, it is the boys who are
reared on farms. The conclusion to
which these farmrs’ sons have come
is indicated by the fact that one-fourth
of the entire population of the coun
try is today congested in our cities.
In 1790, however, out of a total popu
lation of 3,929,214, but 131,472 persons
resided in the cities. These facts are
respectfully commended to that white
winged advance agent of hope, the
Macon Telegraph.
THE ARBITRATION TREATY.
A few days will see the fate of the
arbitration treaty decided, and as the
controversy narrows down to a decis
ion public interest in the measure in
creases.
With the abstract principle in v lived
no fault can be found. The only dif
ference of opinion that can arise is as
to the manner in which that theory
shall be reduced to practice; and it is
safe to say that public opinion in this
country will never endorse any plan
of arbitration which shall submit
questions affecting the American con
tinent alone, to a board the majority
of whose members are Europeans.
Among the most ardent advocates of
the treaty is the New York World,
which yesterday issued a circular tel
egram to the principal papers of the
country, soliciting their participation
in a petition urging the “ratification
of the treaty on grounds of humanity,
the progress of civilization, and the
national honor.” This request was
one with which The Times had no
difficulty in complying, and its posi
tion upon the questions involved is
indicated by the following telegram,
which was sent in response to the
World’s request:
“Tub Times favors the rat ideal ion of
the arbitration treaty as a decided
movement in the direction of a higher
civilization, provided that such ques
tions as may arise from the construc
tion of the Nicaragua canal, or from
similar enterprises upon the Ameri
can continent,shall never be subjected
to alien authority for decision.”
DO THEY AWAIT A DAV?
The latest expression from King
George of Greece impresses the belief
that tile soothing melody of European
concert is about to become a barsh
medley of discordant war-notes.
The king, who has within him much
of the old. Leonidan spirit, frankly
tells the world that the patience of
the Greek people is about exhausted,
and that they cannot be much longer
restrained from plunging into a bitter
war for the liberation of Crete.
“Even as I speak,” he says, “seven
hundred Greeks are marching by the
palace. They come from the remotest
regions of the Caucasus to take the'r
places under the flag of their coun
try.”
Greece has an international situa
tion in her grasp. Seldom, since tte
world began, has one little nation so
completely menaced the destinies of
Europe.
On April 6 occurs the anniversary
of Greek independence. It is a day of
feasting and rejoicing throughout all
IlellHS. May not these patriots be
waiting for that day to initiate a war
that will shake Europe and aston
ish the world?
How many young men and young
women are cut off just as the future
seems brightest and fullest of prom
ise! They are taken away by the dis
ease which causes over one-sixth of
all the deaths in the world—the dis
ease which doctors call consumption.
There is absolutely no reason in the
world why consumption should be
fatal —why it should be even serious.
It is a disease of the blood and can be
cured absolutely and always by puri
fying and enriching the blood. The
only exception to this is the case where
the disease has been neglected or im
properly treated until it is stronger
than the body—until the body has be
come so weak as to have lost the abil
ity to recuperate. Dr. Bierce’s Golden
Medical Discovery will cure 98 per
cent, of all cases of consumption if
used according to directions. It also
cures all lingering coughs, bronchial
and throat affections.

VALUE OF GOOD ROADS.
Their Importance Is Not Yet Understood
by the People.
Each succeeding year records a growth
in the sentiment for good roads. A few
years ago it was a subject that aroused
little interest except among a few en
thusiasts. Gradually there has crept in
to the minds of the people a feeling that
our highways are not all that could be
desired. The St. Paul Globe, referring
to this, says:
Even yet nobody estimates truly the
importance and value to the people of
systematic general road improvement.
The cheapening of production and the
saving to the producer by a system of
improved highways would be greater
than all the reductions in railroad rates
that have been made or can be made if
they were carried down to the actual
cost of operation.
The amelioration of social differences
in the country, the abolition of that
isolation which is the great drawback to
rural life aud the actual addition to the
cash value of farm properties are bene
fits positively incalculable. So that,
from the practical point of view, there
is no subject relating to the develop
ment of the country and the prosperity
and happiness of its people that can take
precedence of the construction of good
roads. • •
Delicious English Mullins.

butter. When lukewarm, add half a tea
spoonful of salt, half an ounce of com
pressed yeast dissolved in 2 tablespoon

Beat thoroughly and set aside for 2
hours. Bake in greased muffin rings on

IT CANT BE DONE-
No One Can Remain Well, No Chronic
Disease Can Be Cured Un'ess the
Stomach is First Made Strong
and Vigorous.
This is plain because every organ in
the body depends on the stomach for
its nourishment. Nerve, bone, sinew,
blood are made from the food which
the stomach converts to onr use.
How useless to treat disease with
this, that and the other remedy and
neglect the most important of all, the
stomach.
The earliest symptoms of indigestion
are sour risings, bad raste in the mouth
gas in the stomach and bowels, palpi
tation, ail-gone feeling, faintness,
tieadaches, constipation; larer comes
loss of flesh, consumption, liver and
heart, troubles, kidney diseases, ner
vous prostration, ail nt which are the
indirect result of poor nutrition.
Any person suffering from indiges
tion should make it a practice lo lake
after each meal one of S uart’s Dys
pepsia Tablets, allowing it to dissolve
in the mouth and thus mingle with
the saliva and enter the stomach in
the most natural way. These Tablets
are highly recommended by Dr. Jenni
son because they are compo ed of the
natural digestive acids and fruit essen
ces which assist the stomach iu digest
ing all wholesome food b-f.ire it has
time to ferment and sour.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
by druggists, full sized packages at 50
cents. They are also excellent for in
valids and children. A book of stom

OUR NEW YORK LETTER.
Sample Shoe Stores aud Their Patrons.
A Twenty Story Club Building
For Women A Play's Story.
[Special Correspondence.]
There are probably very few persons
in this city, outside of the residents of
the lower sections of the extreme east
side, who are aware of the existence of
the sample shoe stores. It seems incom
prehensible that these places should be
able to make a living for the reason
that they sell only sample shoes, aud as
these never come in pairs the purchaser
must look about aud get the nearest ap
proach to mates that he can find. Some
times the resemblance happens to be so
great that the shoes would pass ordinary
muster, aud again they are so unlike
that the feet of the wearer at once become
the most conspicuous portion of his per
sonality. Still, there is a reason for the
existence of the sample shoe stores and
that reason, as might be supposed, is
the price at which the wares are sold.
In most cases it is about one-third what
the goods would bring at the regular
establishments. To the very poor this
is an important consideration and one
for which they are usually willing to
make some sacrifice in the matter of ap
pearances. Shoes which if they were
mates would sell for about $5 a pair
often go in these places for about $1 to
$1.50. As they are of fine quality and
wear well the economy is obvious.
The Price of Bicycles.
Each year at the beginning of the cy
cling season it is the fashion for the
manufacturers of wheels to announce
with a great flourish of trumpets that
the price of their product will remain
at such and such a figure and that they
never cut under any circumstances.
This is all very pretty, but experience
has demonstrated that so many persons
are attracted to the manufacture of bi
cycles by the rumors of the enormous
fortunes made in the business that the
cutting does in reality begin before the
season has got very old This does not
apply to a few of the old established
firms, who are able to hold their wheels
if they do not succeed in selling them
at the list figures, but to those who
have not sufficient capital to make up
for the lack of reputation of the, in
most cases, unknown wheel, and before
they are able to get recognition for their
product they are often compelled to
make sweeping reductions to keep the
sheriff from the door.
A comparatively largo dealer told ine
the other day that the cutting of prices
for 1897 had already begun and that he
had purchased a lot of very good wheels
at a figure at which he felt confident
the makers must have lost a good deal
of money, but they needed the funds
and he took advantage of their necessi
ties. The same dealer is authority for
the prediction that the present season
will see more of this sort of thing than
the two last seasons put together.
A Club Building: For Women.
It begins to look as though the long
talked of club building for women
would some day be a reality. The proj
ect contemplates the erection of a 20
story edifice, which will be cut up into
apartments for the sole benefit of those
members of the gentler sex who do not
believe that tlicir-sex is the gentler one
at all—now there! No male person will
be permitted to reside within the sacred
confines of the building or even to have
an office in it. A restaurant and all of
the conveniences usually to be found in
a well appointed apartment house of
the better class will be provided, and it
is the opinion of those who ought to
known about such matters that the
scheme is perfectly feasible from every
standpoint, including the pecuniary
one. There is at any rate no doubt
whatever that tlisre are enough women
in this oily who would like such a home
to make it successful, unless the restric
tions imposed are of such a nature as to
arouse resentment, with the consequent
loss of patronage. Especially is this true
of the thousands of women who have
come here to earn a living from every
corner of the country and who have no
relatives sufficiently near to them to
warrant them in considering their abode
as a home. Of course, no one whose
character is not above suspicion will be
admitted, and the place will be an emi
nently respectable one. It is interesting
to know that the plans for the projected
building and all of the estimates for it
were made by women. The superintend
ent aud all of the officers will be wom
en, and the only members of the sterner
sex who will be allowed to earn a liv
ing iu the establishment will be the
firemen aud engineers.
The Story of “Jim the Penman.”
The revival of the once phenomenally
successful play, “Jim the Penman,”
in this city about ten years after its
original production here is a matter of
more than ordinary interest. This ster
ling play, which is one of the best of
the type of clean society drama ever
seen in this country, was written by Sir
Charles Young of London. His friends
were all confident that there would be
no difficulty in finding a manager to
produce it. But the friends were mis
taken, as they usually are, and no one
could be found in London who was
willing to risk a dollar. Then Sir
Charles came to this city with the man
uscript and after a visit to each "f the
theatrical magnates he returned to his
native heath still with his cherished
play. Then the friends advised him to
give the piece a special performance in
London so that the managers might
have an opportunity to judge intelli
gently of its merits, as the work was
one which even the author admitted
would act better than it would read.
Sir Charles had plenty money, and he
followed out this suggestion with the
result that for a period of about five
years he was drawing enormous weekly
royalties on his play. Still, if he had
not been a man of some means, it is not
at all certain that “Jim the Penman,”
which has earned several fortunes,
would not be now reposing peacefully
and in oblivion at the bottom of a
moldy trunk. Joseph Russell.
