JUST Be GLAD.


oh. heart of mine, we shouldn't
Worry sol
What we've missed Of calm we couldn't
Have you know.
What we've met of stormy pain
And of sorrows driving rain,
We can better meet again,
If it blow.
We have erred in that dark hour.
We have known,
When the tears fell with the shower.
All alone
Were not shine and shower blent
As the grfcious Master meant?
Let us temper our content
With his own.
For, we know, not every morrow
Can be sad;
So, forgetting all the sorrow
We have had,
Let us fold away our fears
And put by our foolish tears.
And through all the coming years
Just be glad.

Successful Hunting,

One day last week while George j.
and Pat Wynne, Of Oglethorpe county,
were out hunting, the former found a
couple of partridges on the ground, and
wishing to kill both, fired at them. He
was more than surprised on going to
pick them up to find that he had killed
not only the two he saw, but seventeen
others besides, none of which he had
seen.-Savannah News.

EvERYBODYs HAND RAISED.

a fair-minded man cannot be found
who favors the 8 O'Clock movement. rhe
Providence Visitor contained an admir-
able editorial on the question in its last
issue, concluding as follows: Popular
opinion is deeply moved by the proposed
alteration in the law, and the adverse
criticism OF the measure is not at all
confined to the Democrats In fact
no more unpopular measure has
been suggested for long time, and the
belief is entertained by not a few persons
that the Governor was induced to recon-
mend ii by those who desired, for reasons
Of their own, 10 have him retired from the
political arena. The mere suggestion Of
change in the direction proposed by the
Republican party is the very best thing
that could happen for the Democracy on
the eve of Presidential election, and
should the General Assembly adopt the
measure as recommended it will re-
dound very materially to the disadvan-
tage Of the party responsible for it,"

THE WAY TO WIN.

The Democrats can elect the next United
States Senator from this State in one way,
and that is to attend the primaries, abide
by the decision of the majorities, and go
to the polls and vote the straight ticket.
Any Democrat who cannot sink personal
pique for such a great victory should re-
gard himself as a most miserably con-
structed human being. No one knows
what 10 do for him.

UNCUT LEAVES.

This is the quaint name OF a society in
Boston which furnishes a sparkling ray Of
hope for young authors who find maya
zines and newspapers difficult Of access.
Every few days this society meets and
listens to the reading of unpublished
manuscripts by authors, and buys for
preservation in its archives such pro-
ductions as safely run its gauntlet. What
a paradise for the producers of five-act
Tragedies, didatic novels, ill-cooked dialect
stories and half-baclsed humorous para
