It would seem. from certain evidences.
that the city of Savannah has not yet
been given credit for the whole OF her

there have appeared in the Letters from
the People" column Of the Atlanta Con-

signed with fun names and dated "Sa-

The author Of one of the pamphlets has

Hot Water.

Hot water has far more medical virtues
than many believe or know. Because it
is so easily procured, thousands think it
valueless. The uses of hot water are,
however, many. For example, there is
nothing that SO promptly cuts short
congestion of the lungs, sore throat or
rhen matism as hot water when applied
promptly and thoroughly. Headache
almost always yields to the simultaneous
application of hot water to the feet and
back of the neck. A towel folded several
times and dipped in hot water and
quickly wruug out and applied over the
painful part in toothache or neuralgia,
will generally afford prompt relief. A
strip of fisnLel or napkin folded length
wise and dipped in hot water and wrung
out, and then applied around the neck Of
a child that has the Group, will some
times bring relief in ten minutes. Hot
water taken freely half an hour before
bedtime is helpful in the case of consti-
patton, while it has a most soothing effect
upon the stomach and bowels. A goblet
OF hot water taken just after rising,
before breakfast, has cured thousands OF
indigestion, and no simple remedy is
more widely recommended by physicians
to dyspeptice. Very hot water will stop
dangerous bleediAg.

why Interest Is High In Texas.

The Galveston Daily News reminds
its Texas readers of the difference in in
terest rates in the northeastern states
and in some of the western and southern
states and gives them a few elementary
lessons on the reasons for this difference.
Interest is never so low" it says, Gin
communities given over to suspicious
fires, questionable assignments, fraudu-
lent failures or to legislation with a de-
cided turn against the creditor and i'll
favor of the debtor. Much of the mar
ket rate of interest is insurance against
risk uaUdp est cnnESe diminishes as the
by law to pay their debts and are not
sheltered and encouraged in tricky
courses by unreasonable exemption laws
and by a public prejudice against cred
itors as a class the risk is naturally less
serious"
Making its application to Texas,
The News says: I'VE have a right to
to leave a fraudulent debtor a residence
worth $50, 900, all the bank stock or
bonds he can carry and an extraordinary
collection of the tools of his trade or
profession and to defy his creditors to
crook a finger at him. We can do this if
we prefer, but it is going to cost us
something" 1t asks why the 'goodly
majority of the people of Texas" who
care not disposed to live high today and
hide behind the exemption law, the as
signment law or some other law tomor-
row" should be forced by the discredit
of bad laws and a few dishonest men
"to~pay two prices for every dollar they
borrow" 1t believes the rate of interest
would come down one-half and the
loanable funds would double if the hon
est men of the state would demand the
enactment of laws under which a cred
| itor could collect what is due him.

A Youthful Colonel.

Popular opinion is no doubt responsible
for the idea that children of the rulers of
thew world are given honorary titles, for
which men of less exalted birth have to
serve years and years. Thisis.especially
and navy, where nctV Amy
princes been made colonies before
the same may be observed in other coup-
tries-for example, in the case of the
Kaiser's son.
Popular opinion in this respect is, how.
ever, not quite accurate. 1t will proba-
bly, surprise some people to learn that a
boy in America only thirteen years old
has been given the title of colonel and is
attached to the staff of Governor Bradley
of Kentucky. His name is Harry Multi
gan, and he lives in Louisville, the city
which has the distinction of being the
birthplace of the NEST beautiful actress
of her day, Miss Mary Anderson, now
Nine. Antonio de Navarro.
In spite of his name, this boy is of
Canadian birth, on both his father and
mothers side. They went to Louisville,
which is the capital of the bluegrass
country" when their son was only a few
months old. His father is connected
With the management of one of the
hotels affected by the politicians of the
State, and in this way the boy came to
know a great many OF the candidates for
Office.
1t was this knowledge which procured
for him the distinction he now enjoys.
About a year before bis election, Mr..
Bradley was passing through one of the
corridors of the hotel. when the then
little twelve.year old chap was talking to
a grown up friend.
Mr.. Bradley spoke to the lad, and as
he passed on the ~latter's friend asked
who the gentleman was. Without a
moments hesitation Master Harry re.
piled: is Colonel Bradley. the
next Governo, If Kentucky"
The remark was overheard by the
Colonel, who asked him to repeat what he
had said.
Then he replied my boy, if that
prophecy comes true | will make you
Colonel on my staff"
In the course of time the election came
off, and Colonel Bradley was chosen. To
the surprise of everyone, not excluding
Harry himself and his parents, he issued
a commission for the boy who had
p~rophesied his election, and thus gave to
Kentucky the youngest colonel in tt g

THE WORLD WE DO NOT SEE.
HARRIET BEEoHER STOWE.

Hamlet BEEChEh bIOWE.
1t lies around us ike a cloud,
The world We do not see;
Yet the sweet closing of IN eye
May bring us there to be.
Its gentle breezes fan our cheek
Amid our worldly cares;
Its gentle voices whisper love,
And mirgle with our prayers.
Sweet hearts around us throb and peat
Sweet helping hands are stirred,
And %palpitates the veil between,
With breathings almost heard.
The silence, awful. sweet n calm,
They have no power to break;
For mortal words are not for them
To utter Or partake.
So thin, so soft, so sweet they glide,
So near to press, they seem,
They lull us gently to our rest,
They melt into our dream
And, in the hush of rest they bring,
IT'S easy now to see
How lovely and how sweet a pass
The hour of death may be;
To close the eye and close the ear,
Wrapped in q trance of bliss,
And, gently drawn in loving arms,
To swoon from that to this
Scarce knowing If we wake or sleep,
Scarce asking where we are;
To feel all evil sink away,
All sorrow and all care.i
Sweet souls around US watch US still,
Press nearer to our side;
Into our thoughts, into our prayers,
With gentle helping glide.
Let death between us be as naught,
a dried and vanished stream;
Your joy be the reality,
Our suffering life the dream.

Government Must Control Mines.

The Bankers Magazine for March
finds the origin Of our present troubles
about silver in the demand that the
ratio of its value to gold shall be deter
mined by the government. 1t is, how
ever, no proper part of the duty of the
government to try to fix the ratio of
values of the two metals.
"Being," says The Bankers Maya
zine, commodities as we'll as money,
and being commodities before and after
they are money, and being money sim
ply and only because they are commodi-
ties, and being commodities because
they have recognized and intrinsic value
independent of any action of govern
ment, and even in the absence of govern
ment, and being therefore severally sub
ject to all the laws of commodities, the
law of variable supply and demand and
value among others, and these varia-
lions not being uniform for both metals,
it is impossible that government can
ever fix the ratio of their value.
IF, however, it should be insisted
that it is the function and duty If gov
eminent to (try toy fix the ratio of their
values, it would seem to follow as a
logical consequence that, since their
relative value depends absolutely on the
relative supply of the two metals it is
the primary and plain duty of govern
ment to fix (regulate) their supply by
controlling and operating the gold and
silver mines, the sources of their pro-
duction, 1t should do both things or
neither, and it is preferable that it
should do neither. 1t is folly to expect it
to do the former without dong tie 1T
ter"
This is the truth of the matter in a
nutshell. Unless the government first
acquires all the mines in the world and
decides how much silver and how much
gold are to be produced yearly, it is i'm
possible to maintain a ratio after it is
fixed" France fixed" it 156 times,
but it would not stay fixed, and France
has at length abandoned the effort. The
United States has also tried the expert
ment several times without success. 1t
is time the theorists were letting the
matter alone.
