GETTING AWAY FROM HOME
Tho Spirit of Restlessness and the
Desire For hanEe

The Spirit of Restlessness and the
Desire For Change.
Judging by a good deal Of the con
%versation of the present day, there are
a large number of people who have a
revulsion of feeling is taken by many
persons as a sign Of social deteriora-
ton. For our own part we find it diff
cult to take it quite seriously or to see
in it anything more than a passing
whim.
Nobody nowadays likes monotony.
Change Is what people ~desire-not per.
haps any great change, but lots of
small change; not necessarily for the
better. but for its own sake. Now.
there is a great sameness about ones
own four walls, be they ever so hand
some. We all feel at times an overpow-
ering desire to look at something else.
We cannot change the patterns or the
pictures on them every day, and neither
they nor the home furniture ever seems
to alter in expression.
Again, there Is a terrible sameness
about ones own cook. Experience ena-
bles us to foretell the taste of every
thing at home, from the soup to the sa-
worry II we are rich and from the NUT
ton to the cheese If we are poor;
whereas If we dine at a restaurant
everything down to the salt is differ
ent, and the restaurant Is r%efurnished
daily with new faces.
Then. again, the music and stir going
o. around one avoid the necessity for
much conversation. and conversation
in the home circle is sometimes diff
cult and sometimes dull. 1t does not do
always just to say what one thinks, it
Is such bad practice for dining out,
and, this being the case, it is not easy
sometimes to think what to say.
Nowadays we get, socially speaking,
tired of our friends and even of our ac-
Q~uaintances. We want them to pass
continually before us like a street pro-
cession. Instead Of that they rather
resemble a stage crowd and keep COM
ing up again. There is a limit to those
we know, a limit even to those we
should like or should be likely to know
even by sight, and at a restaurant this
latter limit is disregarded. The barrier
of good which forbids that
those who are acquainted with one an
other should speak is sufficient to pro-
tect our station or our dignity, but it
is not a very high fence. and it is one
which It is amusing to look overflow

tn. Boy and the Farm.

How often we hear parents discour-
age the boys who wish to stay on the
farm! They refer to farm work as
drudgery and that which tends to make
them slaves to work rather than indie
pendent men. The biggest boys are
educated for professional men and in
many instances excel, but the vast ma
jority Of these, with a good practical
education such as can be gained in our
schools Of agriculture, would become
wealthy. progressive farmers. with fine
farms and beautiful homes. If they had
been encouraged and advised to stay
by the old farm and make it q success.

BARRED WAITER GIRLS.
They DISTRACTED Business in the
Hungarian Parliament.

OF late Count Apponyi, president of
the Hungarian parliament, noticed
recently that he could never get a
quorum, though the reports of the
door-keeper showed that the house
was nearly full. Finally, his investi-
cations took him TO the restaurant
floor, where cold tea and other things
are served and which he never visited
before. There he found the missing
quorum, or two of them, making mer-
~ with pretty waiter girls in fetching
national costumes, high patentl leather
boots, short red frocks and blue or
green hussar jack cts with gold fringe.
When the count demonstrated with
the neglectful members they invited
him to join them, promising him far
better time than he could possibly
have upstairs. The count afterwards
ordered the proprietor OF the paria.
mentary cafe to dismiss his mattresses,
but he refused, relying on his contract
no less than on the support of the gay
parliamentarians. There is little
prospect of settlement in Count
AppOnyi's favor, and business OF state
suffers.

because there is something

SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hyPophosphites
especially prepared for delicate

Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is SO perfectly adapted

THEODORE NEWTON KILLEN.
A Friend Pays Tender Tribute
to His Memory.

Theodore Newton Killen, son of
John Killen and Louisa Killen, was
born in Darlington, S. c., November
II, 1927 and died in Greenwood. Ga,
August 10, 1902. He was of Irish des-
cent, his grandfather coming from
Dublin to Virginia in the latter part
of the eighteenth century. When
four years of age his parents moved to
Perry, Ca, where he was raised, to-
gether with several brothers and Sis
tiers.
In his early manhood he went to
New York TO learu'the watchmaker's
trade, but for some reason he changed
his plans and came home. Soon after
he emigrated to Louisiana, where he
lived for about two years, returning
again TO Georgia.
February %, 1853 he married Miss
Francis Ellison. They were the par
ents of seven children, the most of
whom lived to be grown. Mrs. Killen
died September %, 1887. His second
wife was Mrs. Carrie V. Alexander, a
sister of the first, who had no children.
He is survived by her and four child
rem, Mrs. ]. L. Stapleton OF BrOnwoOd,
Mrs. j. A. Hershey of Dawson, Mrs. j.
f. McMath of Andersonville. and Mrs.
B. T Marshall of Fort Valley. He
also left three brothers and one sister.
OF these, Madison lives in Newman,
Texas, Sidney in Miuden, La, George
in Perry, Ca. The sister, Mrs. Sallie
Feagan, also lives in Perry.
During the early part of the civil
war he held responsible position as
skilled mechanic IN government
shop in Macon, where he was employ.
ed in the ordnance department of the
confederacy. In 1863 he moved to
what is now Brentwood, where he spent
the balance of his life in industrial en-.
terprises, mainly saw milling. AT
this business he succeeded eminently,
leaving an ample estate, after rearing
his family in all the comforts OF the
times.
Mr.. Killen was converted in early
life and joined the Baptist church at
Fit. Valley. After coming to Bron-
wood he became q member of that
church and so remained to the day of
his death. Soon after Joining this
church he was ordained as deacon,
which Office he filed to the satisfac-
tion and benefit of the church as long
as he lived being for number of
years, as far as human being can be, a
pillar Of the church. Like his father
before him, who was deacon for over
| fifty years, he gave to his church his
wise council and 'oyal support.
AS man, he was noted for strong
| personality, for clean cut and definite
| opinions. and for the courage of his
| convictions. He was a man of fue~me-
| cha nical talents, which he turned TO
good account "a manufacturer.
1t can be truly said that he has left
/ his children the rich legacy OF good
name-the record of a clean, cOnscien-
tious life-one they may safely take
as al exSmple for their own.

SURE DEATH TO GhOULS.
A Lawyers Startling Device to
Foil Grave Robbers.

The details of the device of Jesse
| Hodgin, the well known Westneid at
torney, to protect the grave of his wife
! were made public the other day, says
a Noblesville Qnd) dispatch to the
Cincinnati Enquirer. The plan has
been examined by experts, who unhesi-
, tatingly say that it will put stop to
body snatching by ghouls. They not
only say the device will be effective,
but they also indorse it because it is
inexpensive.
A few inches above the rough box In
the grave is an ordinary gas pipe three
quarters of an inch in diameter filed
with nitreglycerin. The pipe occupies
a position lengthwise of the coffin and
extends from six to twelve inches over
each end There is a cap fastened
tightly on each end of the pipe to pre-
vent the deadly explosive from leak
inc Scattered promiscuously through
the soil about a foot or eighteen inches
above the pipe are several dozen con-
cussion caps. A spade or any hard sub
stance that comes in contact with these
caps will explode them. The jar will
in turn explode the nitroglycerin,
which would mean death to any one
within twenty-five or fifty feet of the
grave. 1t is intimated that there is suf-
ficient nitroglycerin in the pipe to
make an excavation in the earth fifty
feet square and from ten to tifteenfeet
deep.
While Mr.. Hodgin admits that the
explosion would completely destroy the
body of his wife. he says he would
rather see that done than to know that
the remains were ever on a dissecting
table in a medical college.
"And l would also know that there
would be some dead ghouls somewhere
In the vicinity of the grave" he said.
THE plan is original with me and my
brother, but am satisfied that 1t
would prove a success if it was ever
tried. When first mentioned the mat
ter to the sexton of the cemetery, he
refused to allow me to put in the de-
vice on the ground that it might result
in injuring some innocent parties or
despon other graves. l then consulted
the trustees who have charge of the
cemetery and obtained their consent"
