A Splendid Showing.

1t is an interesting fact that the
affairs in Augusta have been 50 well
managed during the past year. that the
Democrats despite their most frantic
ground for criticism. And yet it is but
just to say that the year has been an
exceptionally severe one in the way of
expenses The heavy rains of last

show that the affairs of our municipal

say that, in View of the extraordinary
conditions that have had to be met,
this is an exceedingly fine showing, and
one that in every way reflects credit
upon the gentlemen who have been
charged with the Management of city
affairs. 1t is one which appeals to the
approval ard support of every voter in
Augusta who has at heart the welfare
of the city. Upon this record the Re

Reflections OF a Bachelor.

A husband is a thing which is always
away just when its wife wants to consult
it.
Whenever a girl tells a new man that
she never has known what love is she
tries to blush.
There are some ideas which woman
can never express properly except with
her mouth fun of hairpins.
When girl acts absorbed and inter-
ested in another girls love condolences
she is only doing it so the other one will
when it is her turn.
If Indian squaws were civilized they
would keep pictures of men thrown
around their rooms with things written
on the back instead of scalps.

ber like a pie when there is company
