But After They Got Acquainted 1t Was
All Right.

There was inst one seat in the passen-
ger coach not occupied by two persons,
and tho man who was holding that
down gave mo my legal half SO grudg-
1ngly that 1 determined to totally io-
more his existence during the afternoon.
AS near as could make out he figured
that ought to have taken another train
or gone into the baggage car, and was
therefore determined to mako it I'M

crowded each other to show our spite.
During the second we let up little,
and each ono was busy with newspa-

we threw our newspapers away and sat
there looking ut the bald head of man

minutes we had begun to forgive each
other, but pride kept as from making
any advances. The fifth hour was 80
minutes old when my fellow traveller
yawned and pretended to 70 to sleep.
Not to be outdone by mean man in
playing a mean game, I followed suit
len minutes later he woke up, hunted
around for pencil and paper and wrote
and passed over to me tho inquiry:
"Were you born that way?"
Yes. Were your" I wrote and hand

message.

THERE is one medicine which every
family should be provided with. We
refer to mberlain's Pain Balm.
When 1t Is kept at hand the severe psin
OF burn or scald may be promptly re-
lieved and the sore healed in much less
time than when medicine has to be sent
for a pprain may be promptly healed.be
fore Inflammation sets in, which insures
cure in about one-third the time
otherwise required. Cuts and bruises
should receive immediate attention, be-
fore the parts become swollen, and when
Cham oerlain's Pain Balm is applied it
will heal them without matter being
formed, and without leaving a scar. A
sore throat may be cured in one night.
A piece of flannel dampened with this
liniment and bound on over the seat of
pain will cure lame back or pain in the
side or chest in twenty-four hours. 1t
Is the most valuable, however, for rheu-
matism. Persons afflicted with this
disease will be delighted with the
prompt relief from pain which 1t affords,
and 1t can be depended upon to effect
complete cure. For sale by The Chas.

The managers Of the Atlanta exposition
cannot OF course control boarding house
rates and street car fares in that city
during the exposition. but they can enter
a protest against anything that looks Ike
extortion. In our dispatches yesterday II
was stated that the boarding house keep
ers have announced an increase in their
rates and that the street car lines have
decided 20 double their fare 10 and from
the exposition grounds. This looks very
much as II it were the purpose Of those
who have it in their power 10 do so to
fleece" the public during the exposition.
If the impression gets abroad that sys-
tenn OF extortiOn IS TO be adopted in At
lanta, 1t will have the effect Of cooling en-
thusiasm in respect to the fair. People
viii simply close their pocket books and
let the fair get along without them.
As far as we can see there is no good
reason why the boarding houses and street
car lines should make any change in their
rates while the exposition is open. They
will have an enormous increase in the vol
ums OF their business and that ought to
satisfy them. All the railroads leading 10
Atlanta have made big reductions in pas
senger rates for the benefit Of those who
intend to visit the exposition. Why then
should the electric roads of Atlanta dou-
bic their rate OF fare?
1t looks very much like a settled purpose
to gouge the public. 1t can be safely stat
ed that the public will refuse to submit 10
that sort of treatment They know how to
protect themselves. They won't go where
they will be imposed upon.
II the street railroads and boarding
houses are going to double their charges
there is no good reason why the railroads
should reduce their rates With extortion-
ate rates in Atlanta people would not go
to the exposition even if the railroad rates
were reduced. The railroads therefore
would lose money at reduced
rates. If the exposition man.
ayers have any influence with the
trolley lines and the boarding houses they
should use it at once. They don't want 10
have the impression get abroad that it
will cost large part Of a years income to
spend few days at the exposition.

The board of trade yesterday cut out an
other piece of work for Representative
Lester or rather it approved the work
which the Georgia Bankers Association
cut out at its meeting recently in Bruins
wick.
The work in question is sub-treasury
for Savannah. That there ought to be a
sub-treasury in this section of the south
is generally admitted by all who have any
acquaintance with the subject. The bank
ers Of Georgia have given the matter very
careful consideration and they are anx-
io1s that such an institution shall be Sc
tablshed in Savannah. We have no doubt
that the bankers Of Alabama, Florida,
South Carolina and perhaps other states
would approve this sub-treasury move-
ment. because they would And an institu-
tion Of that kind in this city exceedingly
convenient for them.
There is no doubt that the sub-treasury
if one is granted this part of the south,
should be located In Savannah, because
her bank clearances are greater than those
of any other southern city, except New
Orleans. Her location also is much in her
favor. She is in easy communication with
all parts of all the states that would have
transactions with sub-treasury in this
part of the country.
Col. Lester, we are sure. will be exceed
ingly acsve in getting congress TO author
ize a sub-treasury in this city. He is ar
earnest worker for whatever contributes
10 savannah's prosperity and he will
have the hearty cooperation of the Geor-
gia senators and the other Georgia repre-
sentatives
A sub-treasury here would be OF a great
benefit TO a wide section Of country There
Is no doubt about that and there will De
plenty OF room FOR such an institution in
either the new public building or In the

What Cheap Corn Means.
From the New York World (Dem.)

When there is a large crop an indef-
nitely large part of il is never marketed
at all. To get 1t IN shape for market II
must be charged with the labor cost of
huslNng and to an Increasing extent OF
Smelling also. All this can be saved If
the corn is converted into pork and beef.
A hog of a good breed will store the value
Of q barrel of corn so as greatly TO ip-
crease its price in market and greatly
diminish the cost OF marketing IL. Hence
in o good corn year immense quantities
OF the yield are marketed in the form Of
pork. The hog thrives on corn better than
other farm animals. but all can be fatten-
ed on II 20 advantage. SO that more corn
results in more beef, more fowls. more
provisions OF nearly al kinds in market
81 cheaper prices. 81 course, all such
hy-products OF the farm as wool anc
leather are also cheapened BY large
corn crop, 80 that abundant corn means
greater plenty Of everything. Of thar
