DR.. Kobayashi, the well known
Japanese surgeon who has made his
home in this city ior several years,
returned by the S. S. China from
an extended visit to his own
country, and will again resume his
practice next week. DR.. Kobav-
ashi is son of the man who retired
from active service short time ago
after serving many years as surgeon
general of the Japanese Army. The
family stands high in Japan, and is
greatly favored by the government
because of Surgeon General Kobay-
ashi's distinguished service.
While in Japan, DR.. Kobayashi
was in close touch with the powers,
and is able to speak authoratively
Of the condition of affairs there.
He says that the Hawaiian ques-
ton has entirely been lost sight of
on account of many grave and more
serious matters that have come be
fore the Mikado's government.
1t was never a governemnt
measure at any time, " said the
doctor in an interview with a Star
man, and was only pursued with
apparent vigor to satisfy the lower
classes, who demanded an active
policy toward Hawaii, AS soon as
the people had their attention at

quickly permitted the matter to slip
into oblivion, l do not think that
our government will ever interfere
with the annexation of these ISL
auds to the United States.
While l was in Japan, every
preparation was being made for a
war with Russia and China, which
the ministry and people alike seem
to think is inevitable. The whole
energy of the nation was bent on
this, and when l lett it was an

A "DELIGHTFUL'' PARTY.

How the Young People of Georgia village
Amuse Themselves at @ social Function.
The Ocilla Norm al Literary Society is
composed of abnormally sociable young
people and every once in a while they
have an entertainment noted for real
pleasure at some members home. Such
an event took place last Friday night at
DR.. Goethe's residence, with Miss Nora
Goethe as the lovely hostess.
The popular parlor games were in
dulged in very enjoyably, and new one
was Instituted, as result of which one
handsome young man is sore on the snb-
Ject of kissing. He was bindfolded an d
asked which young lady he would like to
Kiss him. In perfect good faith he
would name this one, that one and the
other, receiving a gentle smack each
time. The smacker was-a young man
1t was exceedingly funny to hear the
expressions of enjoyment of the kissed,
The handkerchief was finally removed
just as he thought his very "bestest" was
kissing him, The girls are now KEEPING
him very busy explaining why he thought
they would be so willing and ready to
KISS him.-Ocilla Dispatch.

Revenue lamps Attach
ed to 1t.

was purchased by the present owner,
from Christian VAIL OF Milwaukee or
the 23rd of November, the deal being

AS the purchase money is not stated as
to the amount. some idea of its extent
may be secured from the fact that there
was five thousand dollars in revenue

stamps ever purchased for similar pur
pose in the state, and perhaps one of the
largest amounts ever required for a
similar purpose in the country.

4,671 acres of mineral lands ia the i'm
mediate vicinity Of Dahlonega, the bulk
of which is gold bearing, but with 500
acre tract of valuable Manganese deposits.

ton to the landed interests, all the i'm
prOvements thereon, consisting of nu-
merOus mining outfits, elevators, STAMP
mills, 105 dies stamps, buildings, 500
horse cars, forty miles of artificial canal,
railway track and rolling stock and all
the appliances and machinery natural to
an extensive mining interest.
The company was organized about the
LIST of November, most of the stock hav-
ing been subscribed in advance. The
capitalization is five million dollars and
the home Office is at Toledo, with branch
Offices at Delaware, Chattanooga. Tenn.
and at Dahl0nega, Ga. The charter is

THE FIRST BABY.
It's Coming is Looked Forward to
With Both Joy and Fear and it's
Safe Arrival is Hailed With
Pride and Delight by Ali.

The arrival of the first baby in the
household is the happiest and most inn
portant event of married life. The young
wife who is to become mother delights
to think of the happiness in store for her
when the little one shall nestle upon her
breast and latterly she shall hear it lisp
the sweet and holy name, mother.
But her happy anticipation quickly van
Ishes when she realizes the terrible pain
and suffering, through which she must
pass while bringing the little one into
the world. An understandable fear of the
danger attendant upon the ordeal soon
dissipates her joyfulness.
Thousands of wor zen have learned
by experience that there is absolutely
no necessity for the sufferings which at
tend childbirth; they know that by
the use Of Mothers Friend"-a scien-
titic linirlent--for q few weeks before
the trying hour, expectant mothers can
so prepare themselves for the final
hour that the pain and suffering of the
dreaded event are entirely obviated and
it is safely passed through with COM
paratively little discomfort.
All women are interested, and es.
pecially expectant mothers who for the
first time have TO undergo this trial, in
such remedy for they know the pain
and suffering, to say nothing of the dan.
ger, which is in store for them. "Moth.
er's Friend" is woman's greatest bles.
sing, for it takes her safely through the
severest ordeal of her life. Every woman
should be glad to read the ittle book
Before Baby is Born" which contains
lnS2rmation of great value to all. II

of Novelties j n Food.
Apicius, the greatest of all gluttons,
wrote long and elaborate work on
culinary science, which is filled with
descriptions of extraordinary dishes and
sauces, His sole ambition in life was to
pursuit he devoted all his energy and
most of his wealth. Shrimps was at one
time his hobby, and because the marshes
of MintuTnae produced shrimps of an
enormous size he set up magnificent
esta blishment in that seaport, and made
himself happy with his favOrite luxury
until he heard that still larger shellfsh
of the same sort could be found in Afr-
ca. Instantly he bought a ship and set
sail for the blssful region. He was
nearly drowned on the voyage, but that
did not worry him. His single thought
was of the delicious monsters awaiting
him. But when the fishermen he en-
ployed could show him nothing bigger
than he had eaten at home he flew into
rage and straightway started across
the Mediterranean again, declaring that
the whole continent of Africa was " orth-
less compared with his private shrimp
bed at Minturnae. Well, Apicius spent
so much of his fortune on feasting that
one day, on looking over his accounts,
hetfound he had only a few millions left.
Then the strange idea came into his head
that he was going to die of starvation.
And what do you think he did?
"Cut down his expenses.
Turned miser, perhaps"
He committed suicide; just hanged
himself, out of sheer terror lest the time
should come when he could not get
enous b to eat, though in fact he was
rolling in wealth."
One of the Greek historians says that
the regular price at a Roman hotel was

cents a day were considered ample for
