SANTA CLAUS BEGINS EARLY TO
MAKE HIS CHRISTMAS PURCHASES

The crowd this week Is different from
that of the last two weeks. This Is a
buying crowd. Nearly every person
who comes into the store now goes out
with a bundle, while last week and the
week before they came In to look
around"
Mullen e. Bluett are having an un-
precedented Christmas sale, according
TO the assertion of A. u. Mullen. He
said: "Sales are almost double the
amount of any preceding Christmas
week. We have doubled the force of
clerks and still there are times when
the customers have to wait for some
time. I don't see how business could
be better"
j. II. Lane & Co., through the man
ager, also commented on the manner
in which the trade is flowing in at the
present time. The manager said: III
we complained Of the way that the
people are buying now we would either
be very greedy or very foolish. No
complaint is possible. We are selling
more goods of better quality than we
ever did before"
People Seek Good Values
At the Fifth street sore conditions
were much the same. Mr.. steele, one
of the three proprietors, said: People
are buying less trash this year than
they have since I have been connected
with a department store. They are
spending their money most literally
but they care more for value. it seems,
than ever before. We are having larger
crowds every day than we can handle
and 1 believe that we would have just
as large crowds proportionately If we
had three times the space we now oc-
cupy."
At Coulters the same conditions
seemed to obtain. one of the floor
walkers said: "It seems queer. but
there are fewer shoplifters this year
than there have been since 1 can re-
member. We have only found one or
two this whole season and we have
not caused the arrest of them for the
reason that it would be too much
trouble to prosecute them. AS to the
business that we are doing now. L can
only say that / have never seen any,
thing like 1t in my life. Booming is
a weak word to apply to the condi-
tions.
I'VE find it almost impossible to get
enough statesmen to fill the positions
that we have vacant. There are lots
of unskilled clerks on the market that
would be glad enough to get a position,
but experienced salespeople are rare.
From what l have seen 1 do not think
that Christmas will be followed by the
usual period of deadly depression this
year. Things seem favorable for a
continuation of good business"

1T Is PLUCK THAT WINS.

A few years ago a young woman
asked her brother to help her get a
college education. He told her he
could not afford it, but giving her
five cents, jestingly said to her
eco! on that" She bought a
yard of calico with that nickle,
from which she made a sunbonnet
which she sold for twenty-five
cents. She bought materials for
bonnets and aprons with this and
soon had several dollars laid by.
This pleased her brother, who
gave her the use of some land,
which she planted in sweet pota-
toes, realizing forty dollars from
the crop. III due time she enter
ed college, worked her way
through, and graduated with hon
ors. She is now woman of in
fiuence and power and incidental
ly has plenty of money. The same
success can be won by multitudes
of Others if they will attack the
difficulties of life with like pluck
The above Is not fairy tale. 1t
is wonderful what, and how much,
we can do, if we set about it with
high aim.

MAN IMPROVED BY MARRIAGE.

"Did you ever notice how it i'm
proves q man to be married?"
This query was propounded by a
young southern woman here. "You
can always depend upon it that it
is a married man who shows you
all the small courtesies III an ele-
vator; it is married man who
stands up for you in the street car,
and it is a married man who does
all the chores at a picnic. The
most thoughtless, irresponsible
kind of single man becomes a
veTitable model of amiability af-
ter he gets a wife. l suppose his
wife has so drummed good man

man, too They succeed better
in everything they do. "-Philadel-

TRUE AS GOSPEL.

There are a good many men,
and some women, in Marietta who
send to other cities, especially
these containing so-called cheap
mail order houses, when they buy
goods. Let us suppose for min-
ute that everybody pursued that
policy. There wouldn't be a store
on the square, and Marietta would
be totally wrecked in forty-eight
hours. The result of buying away
from home, so far as it goes, is
just the same in proportion to the
amount of it that is done.
If every merchant or business
man sent away for his printing
there would not be a printing es~
tablishment able to survive. just
so far as any merchant or factory
sends away just that far are the
printers knocked out. Every dol
lar sent away for any want that
can be supplied in the city is a
direct blow at the general pros
perity, and that prosperity rises
and falls in due and exact proper
tion as money is sent off or spent
at home and kept in circulation
among our own people.
The man who sends for a suit Of
clothes perhaps gets them dollar
or two cheaper, but he is giving
work to the tailors of Atlanta,
New York, or some other city. He
is patronizing people who have
no interest in common with him.
When he orders his clothes from
a merchant he pays his money to
men who spend it in the city,
place it in circulation where it
comes back to him.
To realize the fullest measure
of prosperity we must all pull to-
gether and do business with each
other. Just give moments
thought-if you are one of those
who send money away-to what
would be the result if everybody
did it. In due proportion as you
are directly aiding in bringing
about the condition which would
exist if nobody spent a cent at
home that he could send away.

KEEP OUT OF DEBT.

In the course of his sermon to
young men OF Sui day night, Rev
DR. Jordan again emphasized the
danger of going into debt, and of
borrowing money to spend for
pleasure. This is point that the
young men especially need to have
drilled into their heads. There is
probably no place in the country
where it is easier for young man
to get into debt than IN a city.
Competition is keen, and mer-
chants and others are willing to
extend accommodations for the
sake of doing business. Almost
any young man of good address
can say, "charge it," at one place
or another and procure pretty
near anything he wants. The
temptation to buy today and pay
tomorrow or next month is very
strong, and many young men sue.
cumb to it, to their sorrow later.
Debt is like ball and chain upon
the ankles of a young man who
would make progress. Debt is re-
sponsible for myriads of p:ema-
turely grey heads, for lines Of care
written upon brows that should
be smooth, for petty populations,
for defalcations, for. theft and for
many a suit of convict stripes.
Of the many temptations that
beset a young man, debt is one of
the most insidlous at the begin
ming and most grinding thereafter.
No man burdened with a load of
debt can possibly be happy; the
man who has no debts is more
than apt to be happy.-Savannah
News.

HOME.

This is word used too seldom,
yet its true meaning is the secret
of all joy. There is but one way
10 this world that a home can be
made, and that is by first getting
true, home-loving wife, one that
appreciates the word home in all
it's meaning. There are many
people who talk about the hard
lot OF woman confined in the four
walls of a house and tied down to
domestic duties Men often have
something to say about things of
this kind and are wholly respon-
sible for the dissatisfaction of
women IN their homes. Such
men do not regard home any more
sacred than the cigar they have
just dashed to the ground
If woman is not to beautify and
make pleasant and beautiful the
home please tell us who will. The
woman with a tender, loving heart
that can preside over and make
sacred a home, is, in our estima-
ton, the great woman of the land.
She who can make warm aud ten
der the heart of a devoted husband
is the woman who does and will
continue to rule the world by her
influence.

Pants are made for men and not
for women. Women are made for
men and not for pants. When
man pants for woman and woman
pants for man, their are a pair of
pants. Such pants don't last.
Pants are like molasses. They are
thinned in hot weather and thick
er i'll cold. Men are often mistak-
en- in pants; such mistakes are
breeches of promise. There has
been much discussion whether
pants is single or plural. Seems
to me when men wear pants it is
plural and when they don't wear
pantsait is singular. Men 60 on a
tear in pants and it is all right ;
when the pants go Oh tear is all
wrong. If You want to make
pants last, make the coat first.

The word "foci," which is used
without explanation in the press
dispatches from New Orleans,
is simply the plural of focus,
which means literally a focus, or
place where the fever is forcuss-
ed. New "foci" simply means
new localities where the disease
has broken out. For instance,
the disease is found first on q GER
tain street. Some one catches it
and takes it to another street OF
l2callty. This is new focus, and
the daily reports of new "foci''
means the new localities where
the disease has broken out.
