Then If prices are low we will -lili
make money, and if they are higher
We will make more money.
Less grumbling and more graft
tude Is what we need fret of all. II
Providence were to reward Us ac-
cording to our compialnts we would
gather very small crop this year,
and then there woul0 be cause for
hard times. | have been among the
people OF the State nearly all over
Georgia and | find plenty every
where. The fatmers look we'll fed,
the horses are fat, there is less debt
than formerly, and anxiety to get
out and stay out. All taken together
the outlook is very encouraging.
With lighter hearts and brighter
faces and cherry words the outlook
will soon ne good.
Let Us study more closely the cost
Of raising crops of every sort and
then let each man devote himself to
that crop he knows best how tn raise
and sell. This will reduce cotton
acreage and introduce diversified
farming and result IN intensive
farming. Cotton can be raised at
four cents per pound, and if it is,
AMI then sold at six cents per pound,
We have profit OF fifty per cent;
but if raised at cost of eight cents
per pound, and sold at ten cents per
pound, we only have profit of
twenty-five per cent.
The whole secret OF success lies in
correcting the cost Of production.
This we have long neglected. Ad-
dress your energies to this point,
and soon smiles will take the place
Of frowns. There is q brigher side;
look for it and you will feel better
for the effort. Smiling is conta-
gious. Start it around. Have faith,
and prove your faith by your
works. Very respectfully,

Who are the Best People?

The newspapers have much to say
about "our best people, which leads
one to ask, "who among the tens of
thousands are of the best people?"
In this Democratic country of ours
we are generally agreed with the
Irishman who thanked God that one
man WAS as good ss another in A.
merica and better too. The best
people do not belong to any one
class-they are tonpd everywhere
and in every condition. The best
people are they who know the most
and do the best in their own spheres
Tne best servants, the best doctor,
the best lawyer the best preacher,
the best business man, and, in short
the hess man in every line of action,
is really of "our only best people. -
rhoronghuess, 3 conscientious dis
charge of duty, the most honorable
and upright citizen, without resard
to the best aristOcraCy that the
world has produced. Let 90 man
fancy that because bis father is rich,
or that he hes descended from a
distinguished ancestry, that be is
en titled TO be regarded as the fore
most in his town and city. Put your
own shoulder to the wheel aDd do
something, make the world better
for having lived In it, and then. and
not until then, will you be entltled
to high consideration. Waiting
for dead mems shoes, and banking
on the reputation OF ancestry, en-
titles no one to the best places and
tue best estimate of your own COM
munlty. up and at it," is what

ABSOLUTELY PURE
One Mans luck.
(Atlanta constitutional

A paragraph in The New York
World states that Howell Osborne
made over 100000 in the past few
weeks In stock gambling, and will
sail for Europe after another lucky
hit.
Now, this single item VIII do
more damage than a ton Of lottery
circulars and all the other stuff whi> h
the postal authorities suppress under
severe penalties.
Thousands OF neE with small
means, ndling he funds Of others,
and punched by their Decessiues, will
read the story OF this youug mans
luck. and then give themselves up to
the speculative craze. Every year
clerks, cashiers and agents yield to
this temptation. They use their
own money and that OF their EN-.
ployers. and the result is a prison
cell, a suicides grave o. fight To
CO nads.
One mans luck iG stock gambling
causes the ruin Of thousands. The
fashions Of the day and our false
ideas OF success IN life make our
people money mad. They are IN q
hurry to enjoy fortunes made without
work. Instead Of patiently and con
tentedly sticking to occupations
which are productive and useful,
men are watching for opportunities
holding out the promise OF sudden
wealth. Stock gambling is alluring,
aud it Ia more respectable than ordi-
nary games OF chance. 1t attracts
the so-called better classes Of society
enriches few, impoyerishes the
many, and makes thieves OF more.
1t would be we'll for the average
young man to get it into his head
that be has no more chance OF max
ing a fortune IN stock gambling than
be has Of finding big diamond IN
the gutter. This Is the plain unvar-
nished truth, but you will meet fell
lows every day who feel confden mt
that their Judgment would enable
them to tackle Wall street and come
out rich. When the American people
are made to realize tae fact that
their only hope of getting ahead in
the world is to work hard, with
patience and economy, then honesty
will be the rule and dishonesty the
exception. The leading cause OF the
prevailing dishonesty is the notion
entertained by many that they can
try their luck In speculative gamb'
ling with q reasonable prospect OF
success. When man believes this
be IS in danger of risking all the
money he can lay his hands on
whether it belongs TO him or others
