A Crying Need.

IA ~4 y 44@9 AN~&WS
Marietta needs grocery store
where people can fine what they
want ard where they can leave
their orders and know that no
inferior goods will be sent; one
whore polite attention and prompt
service, together with correct ac-
counts make it a pleasure to do
business.
That Faw & Rogers, The Fancy
Grocers, are striving to supply
this need is evidenced by the great
variety of high class goods carried,
both imported and domestic, the
quality of each article being
backed up by the guarantee of
this firm, whether expressed or
implied; and by the character of
help employed. Instead of push
ing the articles that show the
biggest profits this firm seems to
delight in selling the very best of
everything, such as Postell's GEL
egant" Flour, "Clover Hlll'' But
ter, Chase & Sanborn'g Coffees
and Teas, Peters Milk Chocolate.
"Sugar Loaf" and other high
grade canned, goods, and many
other we'll known brands too nu-
merous to mention.
If you have had trouble about
your groceries, or for any reason
contemplate making change, we
would suggest that for the next
month you would entrust your
orders to

WHEN z GIRL IS IN LOVE.
When a girl is In love she says:

When girl is IN love she says:
Not 81 could live my life with him."
but 81 could not live my life without
him."
Not siHe Is perfect" but 81 don't care
whether he is perfect or not"
Not He will be good to me- but II
Will be good TO him.
Not HE is worthy OF me-" but Am I
worthy of him?"
Not 81 see much in him to admire -
but II see nothing in anyone else to ad-
nlire''
Not II believe him. because what he
says is true" but II believe him, be-
cause he says it,.
Not II could endure poverty with
him." but 81 could endure nothing with
out Kim
Not Il shall be happy with him." but
81 shall not be happy without him.
not Il can reform him, but Il would
net change him."
Not Il wonder If / love him enough?''
but Il wonder IL / love him too much?"
Not He is as handsome as Apollo. az
wise as solomon. and as brave as We'll
llngton, but Apollo and Solomon and
Wellington all remind me of HIM.
The most narrowing thought in the
world. next to not being sure that the
man you love loves you, is that perhaps
you do not love the man who loves you.
II you can pass this determination
and give yourself 100, you may be quite
sure that you love him.
1t may seem TO you that you love him
too much, but remember that you will
need big bank account of love TO draw
on for the exigencies Of marriage.

TRuTIIFl Ill CHILDREN
Punishment after a Child Has Con-

Encourage Falsehood.

Never punish child when he con-
fesses he has done wrong. To do so is
really to encourage him 10 tell lies
Many a child has got into a habit OF
telling untruths simply because he knew
he would be punished If he confessed.
Let him see and try TO make him under

to look on you as a friend 10 whom he
can tell all his childish misdeeds without
fear Of punishment to follow.

Among her toilet accessories every
wofnan must count at least five brushes
as essential TO being well groomed, and
many womea have as many as eight IN
their possession, each one for a different
purpose. The five Indispensable brushes
are for the hair. nails, teeth, clothes and
shoes. while hfiladi Dainty adds a soft
brush for her hats, an eyebrow brush
and a camei's hair flesh brush.
Not all of the handsomely backed
brushes which match toilet sets in silver,
gold or ivory are made with the best
bristles. Because Of the growing search

countries increases. Peasants net tidy

winter of which one IS tired and from
their promise of a coming spring. Each

season the manufacturers have quite
outdone themselves.
