DR.. Burroughs VIII Entertain Them
With Ancient Document To-day.


DR.. w. B. Burroughs, superintend-
ent of the Department of. Education,
Will have show for the children at
the educational department of the Fair
to-day, at noon. DR.. Burroughs has a
lot of old relics in the shape of letters
and documents, showing the sigma
lures of the early senator's, congress-
men and governors of Georgia. He
has the first will in Georgia, and a let
ter written by the first white male
child born in Georgia Among the
papers is permit frcS.a Gov. Dewitt
Clinton of New York, permitting DR..
Burroughs grandfather to bring me-
groes whom he had inherited from an
uncle in New York to Georgia, with
the condition attached that. they be
returned to the state Of New York
within sixty days. The negroes came
to Georgia, but they never went back.
Among other documents to be ex-
h1bited are letters from Gen James
u. Jackson and Archibald Bullock, the
latter being the ancestor of President
Roosevelt. DIR. Burroughs also has
the great seal of King George on which
he granted the lands of the Hermitage
on the Ogeechee to his mothers family,
the family ever since
Over DR.. Burroughs desk hangs a
large silhouette picture, which was
made many years before the war by
William H. Brown, an old man who
was quite character in Savannah at
that time. 1t was said of Mr. Brown
that passing a man and seeing him
only once he could, with knife or scis-
sors, cut out a, perfect likeness of the
individual. Several specimens of Mr..
Browns work are in the Georgia His.
torical Society's archives. The pic
ture in DR.. Burroughs possession is a
very large silhouette, cut out of paper
with pocket knife. portions of the
paper being colored, entitled Bringing
the Weeks Picking Home" 1t shows
a wagon and two mules, the wagon
loaded with cotton, negro riding one
of the mules and two others on top.
1t is very realistic and a remarkable
piece of work of its kind The sill
houette work preceded Deguerre's dis
covery of the process which took his
name and anteceded photography by
half a century.

A Cheese Roast.

Those who insist upon eating cheese
should take the precaution to. cook it
thoroughly before eating. 1t is for this
reason that some people who are I'M
able to eat raw cheese find themselves
able to eat toasted cheese without diff
ficulty. Toasting the cheese does not,
however, Increase its digestlbllity, but
rather the reverse. Its beneficial effect,
If any, Is from the destruction Of the
virulent microbes which are present
and which are capable of giving rise
to symptoms even more distressing
than those of ordinary Indigestion. The
best method of dealing with cheese is
to give it to the pigs, as 1t is nothing
more or less than decayed milk, fit only
for scavenger diet. - Sanitary and
