BABY WASTED TO SKELETON.
In TORRENTS With Terrible Sores on
Face and Body-Tore at Flesh
Cured by Cuticura.

my little son, when about year and
half old, began to have sores come out
on his face. They began to come on his
arms, then on other parts of his body, and
then one came on his chest, worse than
the others. Still he grew worse. At the
end of about a year and half of suffering
he grew so bad had to tie his hands in
cloths at night to keep him from scratch

The Tie Crop of the Future.

The Pennsylvania Railroad proposes
to plant trees Systematically to furn-
ish cross-tie supply in future years.
This follows five years experimental
ton along this line. In this time L.
100000 trees have been planted on
land owned by the company An
area of 6S1 acres near Altoona, Pa,
will in the springs of 1907, and 1908
be planted with chestnut and red oak
seedlings. The railroads of the coun-
try are using about 100000 cross
ties each year, of which the Pennsyl-
vania uses about 100000 This great
demand had denuded the forests SO
rapidly that ties are now selling at
seventy cents each.

EXTRAVAGANZA.
The Government Uses Too Nice
II Stationery.

"If the Government wants to save
money and lot Of 1t, don't see
why they don't economic a little on
the quality of envelopes and even
somewhat on the sort Of paper they
use," said an old Washington news
paper man, speaking to a Star repor-
ter this week. @Of course 1t Is all
very nice to get Government PAM
phlets in high-gradc envelopes and to
be sure that every piece of Govern
ment printing you are going to look
at will be the very highest class Of
work, printed on the best paper OBJ
tainable. But we all know that
when we are buying stationery, we
buy it for specific purposes and do
not bull the paper market regardless
of expense. Take my own case. I
am in the Congressional directory
along with about 40 other corre-
sponderts. I get about everything
that is turned out By the Government
Printing Office. / certainly average
half dozen pamphlets and publica-
tions of one sort and another every
day. Some of them I throw away,
but most of them I at least want to
look over. But not only are all Of
them printed on the very highest
grade of paper, but they come in
manila envelopes as rule made out
of the highest grade and most ex-
pensive paper of that sort that can
be bought. The daily Postoffice and
the daily Weather Bureau reports are
about the only ones that use cheap
envelopes. The others, especially the
big envelopes, must cost a cent
apiece. Now WREN you think of the
amount of money that is thrown away
simply on the correspondents list in
Washington and add to this the waste
that is going on every day all over
the country, it is wonder to me that
there is any surplus in the Treasury
at the end of the year at all. OF
course the paper contractors fatten
on this sort of thing. But how long
would that sort of extravaganza be
allowed to continue in any private
business house ?"-Washington Star.

SOME OF ATTORNEYS
OPPOSED TO new
CIRCUIT [
CLAIM THERE IS NO NECESSITY
FOR DIVISION OF IT-OTHERS
SAY THAT 1T is ABSOLUTELY Y
NECESSARY.


4 see no reason for a diyition q
Brunswick circuit, said a well k
member OF the Brunswick ,$4sesfefV
aay. u am of the opinion that una
der the present conditions the state
OF Georgia has too many superior
court judges, continued the attor-
ney. I'm all there are | think % Of
these judicial officers in the state or
one judge for a fraction over every
five conties in the state. When it is
remembered that in Savannah. At
lanta ana other larger populated sec
uons there are judges that do not
preside outside OF these counties it
brings the average up even higher
The lawyer then prepared a state
ment of the number OF counties in
the Brunswick circuit and showed
that the Judge of the circuit at the
very outside figures did not hold court
over thirty-six weeks in the year, leay-
ing sixteen weeks each year when
the judge OF The circuit is pracd-
eally doing nothing save hearing mo-
tions, etc, which would not require
twosweeks in the entire year
In the statement prepared the num-
per of weeks for holding court accord
ed to each of the ten counties in the
circuit were as follows.
Glynn s, Ware 6. Wayne 4. Pierce
4. Appling 4, Coffee 4, and Camden,
jeff Davis, Clinch and Charlton each
two
Thus it will be seen that giving all
Of the counties more weeks than court
is really held. only thirty-six weeks
OF active service is performed each
year.
In direct contra tone to the above,
however, another equally as well pos
ted and prominent attorney stated
that the division of the court was a
necessity to the speedy handling Of
the business in the various counties.
He pointed out that all of the dockets
were crowded and that the Brunswick
circuit was the largest in the state
and division would guarantee
quicker and more satisfactory litiga-
ton.

ARE DISCUSSING
PROHIBITION BILL
BUSINESS MEN DO NOT THINK 1T
WILL MATERIALLY INJURE
BRUNSWICK.

A great many business men of the
city are taking a safe, sound view OF
the passage of the state prohibition
bill A News men interviewed mum
ben of them yesterday and the general
sentiment expressed was that the
OF Grafton of the new law would prob
ably be felt for a few months after
il goes into effect, but they do not
contemplate any long drawn out evil
effects from it. OF course they point
out the fact that it will cause some
twenty stores to be vacant for time,
but it is believed that they will soon
be filled up with other lines Of bus
mess and in the course Of ninety
days things will be moving along as
smoothly as before
The statement from President At
kinson that all Of the contemplated
improvements on the Oglethorpe ho-
tel will be made according to pre-
viously agreed plans, and that the ho-
tel is to be conducted along strictly
first class lines was an encouraging
sign of the times
A real estate man, wnen asked IL
realities had dropped in value any,
replied to the contrary and announc-
es that property all over the city is
on the incline and that the demand is
considerably above the average, with
general activity peryadins the
| market.
The whiskey men themselves are
ticking the matter in a vey philos-
ophical manner. Two or three OF
| them, who are large dealers. SAID that
of course they regretted the move on
| the part OF the legislature, but that
they proposed to stay right here IN
Brunswick and engage in some other
line of business. They also expressed
the hope that. the law would be rig
/ idly enforced now that it had been
passed in it's drastic form.
On the whole there is manifest spir-
it Of good cheer that speaks well for
mo people Of Brunswick.
