The colony town of Fitzgerald, Ga,
founded about two years ago by Grand
Army men from the north, is rapidly
sinking into decay. The fault is not
with the location. although that is very
rad. so much as with the coionists
1hemselves, who. it is claimed, have
become lazy and shiftless and depend
sitnost wholly upon their pensions for
support.

STARVATION AND THINGS.

Emporia Gazette:
The papers say with considerable
evidence of truth that people are
starving and freezing to death in Chi
cago. And Immediately a number of
unthinking people say there is some
thing wrong with the government.
Probably there is something wrong
with the government. Governments
are human institutions and must be
imperfect. But the imperfectiOns of
the government have little or nothing
to do with the starving people in
Chicago. The people who starve are
largely to blame themselves. No
government can be arranged that will
take away individual responsibility
for success or failure. People have
always starved to death or frozen to
death and they always will. Govern
ment has nothing to do with it. The
fact that one man is rich, very rich,
doesn't make it probable that another
will starve. The government, the
social and industrial system have
nothing to do with it.
People neglect to pay their taxes
every fall. They don't save doing the
summer. In the same way people
play along in the summer without
laying up something and they starve
and freeze in the winter. That is
nature; that isn't law. The more you
teach people that someone else is to
blame for their suffering the more
likely you are to have worthless
citizens.
Men may be out of work. Some
men are always out ola job and others
never have to hunt one. 1t isn't
favoritism; it isn't luck; it's in the
men. Men who are so constituted
that they can't hold job will freeze
and starve Nature is simply trying
to enforce her laws against the worth
less mans propagating his kind.
Nature wants strong men. She
starves and freezes the incompetent.
You can't change that law; it is
cruel. inexorable; but if you don't
like it there is just one thing to do
get up and dust and see that you are
among the favored ones of nature.
1t is every man for himself and the
devil take the hindmost. in this world,
and no amount of weeping over the
misfortunes of the wesklings is going
to change the law of nature. "To

PHOTOGRAPHIC FAD.
Used as Ornaments of Menus and Other
Souvenirs.

Used as Ornaments of MENUS and Other
Souvenirs.
The camera is queen at present, and
the fad for photographs comes L close
second in the minds of fashions vOta-
ries. Photographs are everywhere,
upon everything. From letter paper to
china, from book covers to door panels,
from gloves to garter clasps, the photo
graph is placed in every position which
ingenuity can devise. The latest in
this line is the fad for menu, dinner,
luncheon and invitation cards, each
with tiny photograph of the fair
hostess in the upper left-hand corner.
These pretty trifies cost from seven
dollars a dozen upward, and they can
be used but once, of course, but they
make charming souvenirs of an occa-
sion, and as they are quite beyond the
reach of the woman of moderate cir
cumstances they are bound to be popu-
lar.
This is the mode of placing them
upon the cards or stationery: The
prettiest photograph which you have
is taken to the half-tone man, reduced
and made ready for printing. This
costs from $1.5O to So. according to
personal taste and the quality of the
work. Only good, smooth, fine paper
can be used, and this adds to the cost
The first lot of letter paper Give quires)
costs nearly five dollars. After that
the cost is increased by the cost of
producing the half-tone.
One clever Chicago girl who dab
bles in photography made for herself
some new menu cards which cost a
great deal less and look quite as pretty
as the seven-dollar ones. She first in
duced a sister TO take a tiny portrait
of her which she developed and printed
in the regular way. Then she cut out
the photograph, using a delicate oval
outline as a margin, and afterward COW
cred the finishing line with a fine
tracery of pen and ink work. The re-
suit resembled a fine nalf-tone with a
border of etching, and the effect was
so satisfactory and charming that she
has since filed many an order for her
fr:erds.-Chicago Times-Eerald.
