A Desire For Blood

Why, look now, you cannot en

see the rivers of blood that are
flowing in Manchuria, the eeat of

Big Headed Fool.
Mamelous Business
The MoClure Ten Cent Co. did
a marvelous business during the
holidays—the faot is they came
near supplying the trado of old
Santa. They were rnshed from
early morn till late at night. Mr.
Stone, the effioient manager was
untiring in his efforts to please
the people, and he did so. This
is a great store and ii destined to
do great things for Athens. We
are informed that the buaineat
far exeeeded expectations, and the
management will use every effort
to make it a place where you oan
always get anything you want at
the oheapest prices.
The beauty about the newetreet
lights is that when yon need them
they are there, and this could not
be said of the old ones. Really,
thia is the greatest stride in the
way of advancement that Athens
has had.
Two rioh men, believing Nan
Patterson not guilty have offered
to go on her bond to the amount
of $50,000, and these are Southern
men, too.
We have heard of several wife-

In every oommnnity yon will
always find tome people whose
head* have outgrown their bodies
to snoh an extent that they be
come obnoxiont. Did yon ever
aee a fellow whose exalted opinion
of himself caused his head to
■well. Of course you have in every
walk of life. We have always held
to the opinion that a truly great
man—learned men—had a right
to stand head and shoulders above
the average run of hnmanity, bat
it is invariably the ease that men
of that kind are the aimpleet and
feel themselves the smallest at all
times and in all plaeea, hot the
fellow that makes yon very tired
is the one who thinks he knows it
$11, and infaet knows nothing; or
the fellow who by dint of ohioa-
nary or tome other means has ac
cumulated a little money and
would make yon believe that he
really o'wned the earth and the
moon thrown in. His head growa
fast and it ii a good thing for him
when a kind friend comes along
and knooks him off the blook—it
makes a man out of him ever af
ter. These kind of folks think
they “out ioe" and they do when
the prope are knooked out and
their beads strike. The man of
sense is straightforward and kind
and pleasant to everybody, he
does not think that if it was not
for him the earth would oeaae in
its orbit and that if he ihonld
happen to shuffle off tbii mortal
eoil that things wonld stop, - Man
is a very small affair, and the
moat infinitesaimal atom that
happens to be on this terrestial
sphere is the brain of a big-headed
fool, who thinks he knows it all,
and methinki I ean hear, welling
from myraids of throat* from all
over this wide world .the glad re
frain, “amen.”
