How People Garry Money.

can tell you the business Of six men |
out of every ten who come In here, and
the social standing of all of them, from
tho way they carry their money, said
Broadway ticket seller for one of the
Souut. steamboat lines to 4 Press reporter
recently.
Did YOU ever think how much of a
PERSONS individuality is expressed in his
method of carrying his money? l see
people every day get at their change and
have made a study of it.
That man, said the ticket seller, as an
old gentleman who had purchased
pasteboard good for trip to Boston
went out, is a retired banker. Did you
notice that he carried his money in
long morocco pocket-book? That pocket
book is always carried in the inside
pocket of his coat, on the right side. 1t
contains a number of bright, clean bills
all neatly smoothed and laid out at full
length and right side up. He never folds
a bill, will venture a cigar.
his money IN small case made OF seal or
lizard skin. He folds the bills twice.
His roll is never large, but he has enough
on hand to meet any emergency.
The clubmeu invaribly carry roll of
clean So bills in their vest pocket, where
they can be easily reached. Some carry
only gold. James Brown Potter favors
and usually carries few quarter eagles
in a small silver case, into which the
coins fit without rafting. Lispenard
Stewart usually has roll OF new bills in
his vest pocket.
The man who comes in and fishes from
a deep trousers pocked a lot of 81, 81
and So bills that have been twisted up
like gun wadding l always set down as
a sporting gent of the Guttenburg type.
The farmer on an excursion to Bost-
ing counts out the price of ticket in
quarters and halves from tan. colored
leather pouch that is tied up with
string run through small Sits near the
top. The seafariDg man on his way to
his home carries the proceeds OF his last
trip in calIskin wallet. 1t has been
handed down from his father, or perhaps
his grandfather, for 1t is black and shiny
with age. 1t has long strap passed
through number of cross straps. The
cross sections seldom have more in them
than tobacco idust or a frayed tax receipt
| that shows he owns a home. But in the
centre of the wallet is place where
bills may be laid out straight and cover
ed with a calfskin flap from either side.
The man who carries change i'll his
coat pocket has been car conductor at
| some time or other. The fellow who
| draws ten cent pieces from every pocket
| in his cloths is peanut man OF yender
of small wares.
The women too, have variety of ways
to carry their money, though their lack
| of pockets limits their vagaries in that
| directionI The young woman with fluffy
hair, who has the price of her ticket roll
ed up in her palm, has a mysterious stor-
age place for money somewhere. When
she is not spending it she puts it where
| no man will ever go after it, but the
place is accessible TO her slim fingers in
| a second.

Colonel Hadley was telling fish story
in the presence of some friends and his
little boy, Sammy. Yes, continued Had
ley, it took me half day to land that
catfish. l caught him in the Colorado
river in the spring of the year before the
war. He weighed after he had been
cleaned, just 135 pounds. You can prove
it by me, pa. Don't you remember, pa,
how | slung him on stick and carried
him home, remarked little Sammy. o
you little liar! | am ashamed of you,
exclaimed Colonel Hadley. AS Sammy
is only six years old now, his testimony
as to what happened before the war is
almost as reliable as some of Bob Inger
soils witnesses in the Star-route cases.

There's nothing left
of Catarrh, when you use DR.. Sage's
Catarrh Remedy. With the poison
Gus, irritating snuffs and strong,
caustic solutions, good deal IS
left. They may, perhaps, stop it
for time, but there's danger of
driving it to the lungs They work
on false principles.
But DR.. Sage's Remedy cures it,
no matter how bad the case, or of
how long standing. Not only Ca
tarrh itself, but Catarrhal Headache,
Cold in the Head - everything
catarrhal in its nature. The worst
cases yield to its mild, soothing,
cleansing and healing properties.
SO will yours. You may not be-
lieve it, but the proprietors of DR..
Sage's Remedy do.
And to prove it they make you
this offer:
If they can't cure you, they'll
pay you $500 in cash. It's a bust
ness proposition from a responsible
house.
But do you think they'd make
it if they, and yom, couldn't depend
upon their medicine

A Comical Check Signature.


Young women, especially those who
present checks for goods purchas ed +,
should not yield to fits of absent. minded
ness.
One called at Broadway jewellery store
the other day and selected a turquoise
and diamond ring valued at $3.50. She
was we'll known in the store. Having
completed the purchase she quitely made
out the check for the amount.
Pardon me, said the salesman think
there is some mistake.
The young lady demanded to know if
the check was not made out properly.
Yes madam, but
But what? she naughty inquired. Do
you mean that you will not accept my
check?
The clerk denied this imputation, but
said the check was not much use with
her signature in that form. He handed
it back to her. AS the lady glanced over
1t her face flushed deep crimson and the
exclaimed:
Oh, see!
She drew another check and presented
It. This one was correctly made out,
but in fit of sentimental absent-mlnded
ness she had signed the first one, Your
own sweetheart, Sally.

if you amt got enough good sense

About the Columbus Southern.

From the Albany Herald.
A Herald reporter asked Captain Lowe
If there was anything in the rumor about
the Plant System absorbing the Column
bus Southern.
"Not that 1 know off, said Captain
Lowe. Nothing has been sal to me
about the matter l would like to sell
the road the best in the world, as it is
hardly on a paying basis at present"
Such may be the case, but it was told
at the depot yesterday that the yard
master of the s., F. & W., one of Mr..
Plants roads, had been ordered to trans
fer several coaches to the Columbus
Southern road, and this looks as if they
were getting ready to take possession.
The railroad officials, however, are all
quiet on the subject and will have moth
ing to say.
Captain Lowe left, this morning, for
Atlanta.
Captain Fleming and Captain Haines
left this afternoon, in their special cars,
for Savannah and Brunswick.

"GOOSEVILLE."
How Vision of Large Profits From a Goose
Farm Vanished into Air.

How a Vision of Large Profits From a Goose
Farm Vanished into Air.
! From the Albany Herald.
| A Macon city official, as we learn from
the Telegraph, has been figuring with a
friend on the profits of a goose farm.
Starting out with a capital of $500 to buy
| 1000 geese at SO cents apiece, they soon
| figured out, in seemingly very plausible
way, how clear profit of 81, 589,50O
could be made in five years. After all
this figuring had been done, however, it
occurred to the more practical man of
! the two that in their calculations they
had made no allowance for ganders and
here they became suspicious of the
scheme and abandoned it.
| Reading the article from which these
points are gathered in the Telegraph re-
minds us of an experiment made by a
prominent lawyer and county official of
this city a few years ago.
"Gooseville!'
There are many of our citizens who
have been RECALLED with bright and really
enthusiastic stories about Goosev;lle.
Our friend had the very place FORT a
goose farm. An under ground stream ran
through it, rising at intervals and MAX
ing be autiful pools of clear water. In
deco mature seemed to have goose farm
in view when this particular lot of land
was being created, and our legal friend
was the first to discover it and possess
himself of the land.
Attt getting his land and settling a
trusty old darkey on it he advertised for
geese. And he bought geese-all that
came-sent them out to his farm and
named the place "GoOseville.''
AS tae time wore on the season ar
rived for the geese to begin to lay and
increase they laid not at all, neither did
they increase. They ''toiled not neither
did they SPIN"
Our friend made frequent visits to
Gooseville, and finally commenced to
find fault with the old darkey in charge.
AT length the old darkey made a dis
covery, and when the proud owner next
made visit to Gooseville, he was ready
for him. 'Look a here, boss,'' said the
old man, II tell you what's de matter
wild desc geese, an why dey won't lay
none-dey's all ganders"'
Corn and cotton are planted there now,
but the place is still known as Gooscville,
although there may be none of the herd
of ganders left.

ANSWER THEM.

The Third party managers are send
ing their speakers to every part of the
State, and they are misrepresenting the
issues of the campaign and are preach
ing false doctrine.
The people everywhere should have
an opportunity to hear the truth, and
know just what the issues are.
Therefore, whenever one of the Third
party fellows speaks there should be a
Democrat present to answer him.
There is not county in Georgia with
out some Democrats in its borders who
are able and willing to meet any Third
party speaker who may come along. and
knock him out on the first round.
In every joint discussion that has ia
ken place during the present campaign
the Third party fellows have been rout-
ed and the meetings turned into Demo.
cratic love feasts.
Let every Democrat in the State keep
their "eye on the gum" so to speak, and
whenever and wherever Third party
speaker appears show him up in his true
light.
Let no third party apostle go unan-
Swered.
The truth is what the farmers of Geor-
gla want and the misrepresentation of
these Third party fellows should not 90
