NEW ALBUMS

Albums are good gifts and photos
accumulate so fast nowadays as to
make new albums necessary at short
intervals. We have splendid stock
of them, and we wish to add also
that we bought them direct from the
manufacturers at jobbers prices. We
do not believe there is any one in
this locality who can compete with
us on either price Or assortment.
Some of this seasons albums are
strikingly attractive.

AN IDEAL LIFE.

Tell ma not OF heroic lives of fame
Made glorious in a single hour,
Nor Of high exalted names
Achieved by might or power
But let mo hear of those whore chiefest aim,
Is to follow where their sense OF duty
Lends;
G ntont To spend each ~ the SINE
In doing good, If humble deeds.
let MS NOT search. only in towering heights,
For deefs to crown our earthly pride,
For there temptation ere invites
Nd stu Ia too Off the only guide
The names that grace our history's pages,
or which we should most gladly boast,
Are not of urose who have done the greatest,
But OF those who have achieved the most.

WAKE UP.

About two years ago a Chicago
drug firm placed an order through
a South Georgia physician for a
bale of very cheap cotton. 1t
was a very poor grade and the
firm paid only about 4 cents 1
pound for it. In less than six
mouths this same firm sold some
OF this same cotton to the same
physician at about cents an
ounce. OF course the cotton had
been "medicated," etc, other
wise it was the same cotton.
This illustrates the principle I'M
der which Georgia has been liv-
ing ever since the war; shipping
away the raw material for a song
and buying it back in a refined
state at high price. If God did
not intend for us to be manu-
featuring people, why did He
place at our doors such marnifi-
cent resources? Let us awake
from our long, lazy sleep.-South
Georgia Progress.
Well we are brother over this
way.

although il has not been demonstrated. Prac-
tically, the only observed fact which suggests
such possibility is this: Some of the varia-
tions in the number and visibility of the canals
are apparently associated with the change ot
seasons But one really knows anything
about the matter
The most recent contribution to the discussion
is made by Frencnman Dr.. MiIlochau. # the
Meudon observatory. That institution is IA
nous for the solar studies conducted thera by
the venerable astronomer, Jansen About Is
associate much less is known The simple fart
that he is a member Of the staff of the - u
don observatory though, is a valuable cred m
tial It commands at least a respectful hslr-
ing for the man. Another circumstance which
bears on Dr. AIiIlochau's alleged discovery 5
that he has at his service Il ma gnificagt
;}}-inch refractOr, the biggest telescope Of that
type in Europe, and acquired by the Observ-
atory only within the last few years. On the
occasion when Mars last eligibly situated
for scrutiny, the Meudon astronomer gave spe-
ciaI attention to the so-caIed canals, and he
now reports that he saw them some sort Of
chaplet of small, dark, irregular Masses and
not as bands with parallel edges and uniform
width. DR.. Antoriadi his friend and profession

current number of Knowledge"
Astronomers are not given to accepting un-
reservedly any story of this sort until it has
been verified by independent observation. When

were sometimes seen double. his reputation for
caution and keen vision not enough to in

THE CANALS OF MARS.
RECENT OBSERVATION REVEALS IRREG-
CLAR OUTLINES.

ULAR OUTLINES.
Few Of the enigmas presented by astronomy
the popular mind as the nature of the so-called
canals OF Mars, The little planet which bears
the name of the god of war exhibits two dlt-
ferent colOrs on its surface. The larger part is
yellow shading off into light browns and Pinks
here and there. and also varying IN intensity
from a strong to a pale tint, while the re-
mainder is gray, and similarly betTays greater
depth and distinctness in one place than an
other Formerly the orange colored tracts were
believed to be land and the other areas water
At first the canals which are narrow gray
markings, appeared to traverse only the former,
but recently they have been detected in the
latter, contrasting with their background not in
hue. but in shade. In consequence, the
tronomer now hesitates to distinguish positively
between continental and oceanic regions. He is
not so confident he was.
One of the suspicious which have been enter
tanned with regard to the canals is that they
represent vegetation. PercivaI Lowell goes
step further. and believes that they are due to
vegetation which is dependent on irrigation.
lnasmuch the lines are several miles wide, 1t
is hard TO imagine that they are what is
dinarily meant by canals" The suppositon
that they are shallow conduits for water with
lateral branches which extend five or ten miles
on each side and are close enough together to
make the soil productive, is more reasonable,
