A Fragrant Breath and Pearly Teeth

Are easily obtained by cleansing your teeth
daily with that justly popular dentifrice,
SozoDoNT Composed of rare antiseptic
herbs, it imparts whiteness to the teeth, a
delicious aroma to the breath, and preserves
intact, from youth to old age, the teeth.
Aeidity of the stomach will destroy the
strongest teeth unless its effects are coun-
teracfed with SozoDoNT, and this pure
tooth-wash protects the dental surfaces by
removing every impurity that adheres to
them. Ask your druggist for SozoDoNT.

next week, and on the following Monday ex-
hlbit IN Atlanta. From here it moves west

Favorable weather has steadily reduced the
decrease in Atlanta's cotton receipts this year.
as compared with the same period last season,
and we are short only a little over two
thousand bales. The total receipts, l think
will hardly exceed last years when the final
count is completed.
The Atlanta custom house % seems to have
been most unfortunate creation for the busi-
ness men of the city. 1t really amounts to
nothing, except to furnish a ''do nothing''
office, with about thousand dollars year, for
the colored politician. Pledger succeeds Davis.
and the prospect for bonded warehouse and
larger importations vanishes into thin air
Ihere is, however, one consolation left. If
Atlanta cannot become genuine port of en-
try and boast OF her increasing importations
as she does of her varying population, she can
at least brag on her rapidly growing manufac-
turing enterprises. In one hundred different
ways is she developing industrial pursuits, not
few of which promise to assume large pro-
portions in the future.
Some of our Atlanta Sunday school men are
agitating the establishment of a Southern
Chatauqua for Sunday school gatherings and
instruction. 1t is rumored that r. B. Reppard,
OF Savannah, a generouS-hearted Sunday
school worker, has offered to give five thou
sand dollars to promote the movement. Look
out Mountain and Tallulah Falls are spoken Of
for the location, but I am confident that Matt
lands In Orange county, Fla, would be the very
best place. 1t is region of lakes, is free from
the vices Of city life, has a large crowd of
Northern people in winter, and could be made
more attractive than any summer resort which
would conflict with the Northern Chatauqua.

Prince LeOpOId's Marriage 80 be
Postponed.

LONDON, March 31-In the House Of
Commons this evening, Mr.. Gladstone, re-
plying to question, said that the govern
ment had no change to announce in the
cloture resolution. He stated that he would
introduce the budget on the oath of April.
Mr.. Forster, in answer to a question by
Joseph Cowen, said that he could not re-
lease Dillon on account of the state of his
health, but that the doors of the prison
were open to Dillon If he would leave the
kingdom. This reply was received with
cries of "Shame" from the Home Rule
members. Mr.. Forster added that the con-
dition of Dillon's health at last accounts
was satisfactory.
Carlingford, Lord Prvy Seal, stated that
the government could not suspend trial by
jury in Ireland, and that no fresh legisla-
Uion was proposed.
The Liberals, who voted in favor of Mr.
MorriOtte's amendment to the Cloture reso-
luton, were Mr.. Peter Taylor, Sir Edward
Watkin, Mr.. Morriotte, Mr. Cowen, Sir John
Ennis and John Walter. Thirty-nine Home
Rulers voted on the same side.
Mr.. Gladstone, In closing the debate
denied emphatically that cloture was in,
tended to prepare the way for coercion. 1t
was crime, not cloture, that makes coercion
possible. The government only asked the
House, not by passing the amendment, to
shut the door against a principle which will
defeat individual folly and the darker
designs of those who would stand between
the House and the discharge of its duties.
Sir Stafford Northcote, in the course of
his speech, commented favorably upon
the other rules.
John Bright, like Mr.. Gladstone, COM
mented severely on the designs of the Irish,
which he illustrated by quoting from the
proceedings of the Chicago Convention.
In reply to a question in reference to the
projected Channel tunnel last evening in
the House of Commons, Mr.. Joseph Cham
berlain, President OF the Board of Trade,
said that Sir Edward Watken, Chairman of
the Southeastern Railway, had been warned
that the government claims the bed of the
sea for three miles below low water mark
and holds itself free to use any powers at
it's disposal, as Parliament may direct or
national interests may require.
1t is PROBABLE that the marriage of Prince
Leopold will be postponed because of his
illness. The preparations for the ceremony
have been suspended.
Patrick j. Smyth, member for Tipperary,
and fourteen moderate Home Rulers, voted
with the majority in the division In the
House of Commons Thursday night.
