The Atlanta Constitution offers two
cash prize contests from January Ist to
April 18th, 1902.
81 500 in cash prizes for agents. These
prizes range from 800 for the highest
to $500 for the lowest list from any
agent during the period, in addition
$3.50 will be divided pro rata among all
agents who send twenty or more SUBJ
scriptions and fail to get. any other
prize. This is a liberal offer and the
details of it will be sent you by apply
ing to the Atlanta Constitution, Allan
ia. Ga.
The $1,000 upon the Savannah, Ga,
cotton receipts will be given as follows /:
To the person sending yearly sub
scription to the Atlanta Constitution
(weekly) together with the correct esti-
mate on the cotton receipts OF Savan-
nah, Ga, from September lst, 1901, to
April 18th, 1902.
81 600 if the estimate is received dur
ing January.
$500 if the estimate is received dur
ing February
$3.50 if the estimate is received Iur-
ing March or up to April 10th.
The above are for the exact estimates,
there are besides these the following
prizes that will be paid out for the near
est estimates to the Savannah cotton
receipts received at any time during
the contest:
$3.50, SOC, .$75, $50, $25, for the next
nearest estimates in their order.
There is also great consolation offer.
$500 will be distributed among those
who fail to secure one of the larger
prizes and whose estimates come within
800 bales either way of the exact figure.
This allows margin of 1000 bales with
in which all estimates are sure to re-
ceive part of the prize money offered.
The point is to strike the estimate ex-
actly during January. This is posi-
bility. In contest similar to this the
Constitution has had the number hit
exactly and paid out 81 900 for the esti-
mate. In another similar contest the
estimate has come within one of the
exact figure, and all the prizes offered
have been paid out upon the estimates
that were not fifty removed from the
exact estimate.
STATISTICS OF LAST SIX YEARS.
To aid the contestants in making in
telligent estimates hereon we give the
following statistics of six former years {:

NEW YEARS WISHES FROM THE
ORPHANS.

The orphans in North Georgia
send New Years greeting of sun
shine, rain. and plenty, love, hap
piness and all good things to their
friends everywhere.
The orphans wish for all
nther orphans that they may
find happy homes in some Orphans
Home or good private homes.
They anxiously pray God that no
child shall suffer in 1902.
The Orphans Homes at Decatur,
Hapeville, Washington, Atlanta,
Augusta, Macon and elsewhere
had prosperous year in 1901,
and are preparing to do even
larger work for 1902.
What will you do for them?
You may die this year, Do some
thing noble for God s fatherless
ones to-day, this year make life
and eternity noble by generous
deeds to the unfortunate.
Nj. j. B. Maynard, a success
full farmer, Of Whitfield county,
has done a lasting, noble deed, in
giving 100000 to the Decatur
Orphans Home, and the interest
will care for an orphan for gene
rations to come. Many farmers
and other successful men, if they
would look into the future would
gladly do generous things for hui
manity and for Goo. Live once
only, but live it in such noble
deeds that all the world will be
the richer, and your life will be
fuller, happier and nobler.
