Prepare for SPRING

ltisnone too early to be getting ready for spring
and the first thing which should receive attention
is your own system. If you have not been well
during the winter, have been troubled with scrof-
ula, salt rheum. or other humors ofdhe blood you
should purity the blood by taking Hoods Sarsa
par,lla You will then escape that indescrib7 BILE
tired feeling which is SO prostrating and often so
unaccountable in the spring months. Take
Hoods Sersaparilla before it is too late.
81 take Hoods Sarsaparilla for a spring medi-
cine, and find it just the thing. 1t tones up my
system and makes me feel like a different man.
My wife takes it for dyspepsia, and she derives
great benefit from it, FRANK c. TURNER, Hook

THE BOARD or EDUCATION.

Depositories for the sale of the
text books recently adopted by the
board, have been established at
Dawson, BronwoOd and Chicka =
sawhatchee. In the adoption OF
the text books the Board of Edu-
cation had no discretion in the
matter, but had to carry out the
new law which says: "The Coun>
ty Board of Education shall pre-
scribe, from time to time, what
text books and books of reference
shall be used in the common
schools of the county" The new
law in relation to text books pro-
vides that there shall be no change
in the books adopted, for a term Oh
five years, save by three-fourths
vote OF all the board. And the law
is very emphatic when it says that
it is the duty Of the County School
Commissioner to see that none bat
the prescribed textbooks are used
by the pupils, and if a teacher does
lot use the prescribed books, then
that the teacher will not receive
pay from the public fund
Every county in the state is now
undergoing the operation of this
law, One good effect this law vii
have, will be to do away with ;

4 FINE CONCERT,
The Most Artistic and Varied Nus,
cal Program Ever Rendered,


Aflouto Cepjt1,
Last night a large audience gath
cred at the Church of the Rcdeem>
er to listen to the performance OF
the Till family in their Rock Band
concert.
The wonderful versatility of these
wonderful musicians struck every
one present aud their perfect exe>
cution on all known and many UNI
heard Of instruments, was not only
wonder but deli yht. Net only
were the instruments new and ora
iginal on which the music was per-
formed, but the selections made
and sung we're, many of them, new,
so that the entire ntertainment
was free rom all monotony or trite-
ness, as is not often the case on
such occasions. The Till Family
compose qIartette of probably
the finest all-round musicians in
the world. They not only play an
instrument made, but they also
have the gilt of extracting music
from almost anything they touch,
it would seem, as evinced by Mr..
d. THIS performance of the Last
Rose Of Summer" on an old>fash,
Toned bootjack, The Rock Har-
monicon is one Of the wonders of
the age. 1t is made entirely of
stone and was eleven years in the
ingenious hands OF the Messrs. Till
before it was completed, and tuned
ready for service. The bars of the
stone are all lengths, from four ms
ches to four feet, and the music
with the instrument is of beauti-
full soft melodious tone, that charms
the ear as the execution of the per-
formers does the eye.
The chimes of Westminster and
Of Trinity church on the Fairy
Bells, by Mr.. D. Til, is one of the
features OF the entertainment, and
in this he was encored twice.
The entire concert is leplete with
originality, fun and information,
and it is safe to sly that it is one
Of the finest entertainments evel
given in Atlanta. 1t will be re-
peated this afternoon and tonight
at the same place and hour.

COMMERCIAL VIEW OF EASTER.

The advent of Easter in the commercial
world means the ending Of winter and the
beginning Of the spring season. IIatterly
we have our Easter openings in the va
rious shops, just as We have our holiday
openings, and no lady of fashion dreams
of attending church Easter morning with
out being arrayed in the so called Easter
bonnet and new spring wrap and gown.
Even in places remote from great business
centers the feminine mind inclines to new
apparel on Easter day. This is in part
due, doubtless, to the old superstition that
warns against appearing on Easter day in
old apparel, lest there be dearth of new
things during the remainder of the year.
Not only is there revival of trade in
all things pertaining to personal apparel,
but an impetus is felt in other directions.
With the putting on of spring bonnet and
gown women with housewifely proclivi-
ties begin preparations for the annual
house cleaning, which means new furnish
ings in various home departments. Hence
the fresh arrays of new goods in the furni-
ture stores, at the picture dealers and the
shops given over to various household
decorations.
At Easter, when sweetmeats are as
much in request as during the holidays,
the windows of the bonbon establish
ments are filled with Easter eggs of the
gayest colors and made of sugar. There
are elegant nests of eggs, baskets of eggs,
cradles full of eggs, and figures of
coquettish looking peasant girls carrying
eggs TO market. Birds of brilliant
plumage are sitting on the nests GA
lowering over them, while the eggs in the
baskets and cradles repose on the softest
swansdown or the richest lace and satin.
There are eggs, too, rivaling in size Sin
bad the Sailors famous roc's egg, bound
with ribbon and filed with bonbons.
Then there are figures Of dolls atistic-
ally designed and in gorgeous costumes.
These on being decapitated DISCLOSE of
course, an inside treasure of delicious bon
hons or some pleasing gift.
