cations for Pardons.

mon and Joe Shackleford, of Newton

stole 81 in money. The old man prose-
cuted them and they were sent to the
penitentiary.
A pardon was also granted to Isaac
Brawsier, who is in jail in Terrell county,
having been convicted of simple larceny
He was convicted on circum stantial evil
dence, and the judge and solicitor wrote
the governor that facts coming to light
since then prove him entirely innocent
The governor this morning refused to
pardon A. d. Revere serving a life SEN
tence for killing the unknown tramp at
Stone mountain; F. E. Babbtt from
Chatham for forgery; Erwin Green from
Plckens' for horse stealing and Albert and
Frank Snow for burglary from Wilkin-
son. All the pardons were refused on the

How TO Secure a Copyright

Not long since some one asked how
to copyright book. Some other sub
scribor told us where to get the exact
information by writing to the Ii
brarian Of Congress. This advice was
followed, and herewith are the instruc-
tions received in the official circular
sent in reply.
Many things may be copyrighted be-
sides books. Among them are news
papers, maps, charts, music, cuts,
paintings and statuary. You deposit a
printed copy of the title either with
the Librarian Of Congress at Washing
ton, in person, or in the mails adj
dressed 10 him, on or before the day
Of publication. If the article has no
title-page, a description made cs-
pecially for copyright will do, and
it may be type or pen written. 1t
must give the name Of the owner, the
date, etc. The fee is fifty cents, and
a copy of the record fifty cents more,
or 81 in all.
Not later than the day Of publica
ton two perfect copies Of the book or
other publication must be delivered
or mailed to the Librarian. Without
this latter act the copyright Is void,
and penalty of S25 is incurred. No
tice must be inserted in every copy
Of every copyrighted article. The
form of this notice ia prescribed. 1t
must read as follows; copyrighted,

copyright protects ownership is TWEEN
ty-eight years, but it may, on applica-
ton made before expiration Of that
period, be extended to fourteen years,
or forty two years in all. -Harpers

Wash Out Your Month.

The New York Herald calls editorial
attention to the importance of an anti
septic treatment of the mouth as n
preventive Of disease Inquisitive
physicians have found secreted in the
folds OF the mucus membrane of the
mouth the microbes of pneumonia,
measles scarlet fever and diphtheria,
and say that more patho9enic germs
can be found there than in any other
part Of the body. and to prevent their
entering the system n germ destroying
dentifrice should be constantly en-
ployed, especially after eating. n.
Unua, of Hamburg, recommends finely
powdered chlorate Of potash as a more
effective germicide than the many
tooth-powders and mouth-washes sold
by the druggists. but the Herald's
medical correspondent thinks that
chlorato Of soda is much better. rs il
has all the therapeutical properties of
chlorate of potash, is much more sol
uble and great deal less poisonous.
Few people know, what is nevertheless
fact that The chlorate of potash, es-
pecially with children, is liable to cause
serious gastric trouble. New Orleans
