DIGGING FOR A
POT OF GOLD
Cobb County Farmer Digs
Under the Inspiration
of a Dream.

We are all dreamers, whether asleep
or awake, We sleep and dream and
awake to find our dream a baseless
fabric. We build sair castles in mo-
ments of wide-awake thought and med
itation. We execute as we Ehave plan
ned, and happiness and wealth are the
objects. The prophets of old dreamed
dreams and had visions, and their ac-
tions we're often influenced by their
dreams. Last week in this county,
near Woodstock, we'll known farmer
could have been seen digging large
hole in his horse lot. The expenditure
of this muscle and energy, in the WELD
ing of pick and shovel, was inspired by
dream. The gentleman had dreamed
that pot of gold was buried in the lot
and that it is there now, and that the
spot where the hidden treasure reposed
was indicated by certain depression
in the ground. When he arose next
morning with the vivid dream stirring
his thoughts, ne hurriedly sought the
horse lot in search of the yellow gold ;"
with the same eagerness as the vast
multitude has sought the Klondyke,
with all its ilardships and deprivations.
When he reached the horse lot sure
enough there could be seen the sink
hole as pictured in his dream. Pick
and shovel were brought into requisi-
ten, and day by day the hole has grown
deeper and deeper in search of the pot
of gold. 1t has not yet been unearthed
by the clever and industrious farmer,
but he has faith" in his dreams and
his faith" is moving mountains of dirt
in order to become possessed of that
which will bring him happiness and
wealth. His hopes may be shattered
as thousands of human hopes have
been, but the earnestness of his efforts
is worthy of the richest reward.

A fire occurred Monday morning in
the office of the First National Bank.
The fire department was promptly on
hand and extinguished the fire in an
exceedingly short time. No serious
damage. The newly papered walls and
ceiling were damaged to such an extent
that it will necessitate repapering,
repainting, etc. The furniture and fix
lures were slightly damaged Shortly
after the fire was extinguished the bank
opened for business as usual; carpen-
tiers were sent for and commenced work
making necessary repairs. Paper hang
ers are here and within the next few

think we do violence to truth when
we say the display was of superior ex-

our work appreciated, and praise en-

the many sales the lady customers

The entire store was as pretty as

pretty new goods of popular and
fashionable styles. The overhead cell

to interpose delay in the publication of any

posted in the chapel of that name in the
old Spaaish-Flemish city. His Holiness was
once asked whether he seriously believed in
the genuineness OF the relic. He frankly re-
piled that he had not studied the question.
But" he added. II have in this crucif1x a
relic asserted to be a portion Of the true
cross. What 1 do know Is that. according
to all laws of evidence. II can be traced
back to the possession Of Pope OF the
Seventh Century. I think, after proving
this much. We may fairly leave the burden
Of demonstrating its unauthenticity to

the fact that the outlaws made a renGez-
