The Office of superi of th'
Fifth division of the Seaboard System
| together with the Office of chief dis
| patcher of the division, and perhap:
other departments as well, are to be
removed from Savannah and estab.
lished in Americus.
Such was the interesting report COM
ing here from Savannah yesterday,
and from source that cannot in any
wise be questioned.
Americus is again to be headquar-
ters for the Fifth division.
The change contemplated restores the
status quo and renders Americus a
place of importance on the Seaboard
system. Business is again to be di-
rected from this point, as was done
prior to the removal of headquarters
years ago.
Superintendent II. B. Grimshaw
comes back to Americus to dwell in
the house of his friends.
With him comes his chief clerk and
others in that department, together
with the chief dispatcher and employees
of that office.
Just what. other departments it is
proposed to bring to Americus has not
been fully determined as yet, but in
all quite number of officials and en-
,ployes will probably come here, and
from this point the business of the
line will be directed.
Supt. Grimshaw is former resident
of this city, and host of good friends
will welcome his return.

AWFUL EFFECT OF ECZEMA.
Covered with Yellow sores--Grew
Worse-Parents Discouraeed-cu-
ticura Drove Sores Away.

"Our little girl, one year and a
half old, was taken with eczema or
that was what the doctor called 1t.
We called in the family doctor, and
he gave some tablets and said she
would be all right in a few days.
The eczema grew worse and we
called in doctor No. 2. He said she
was teething, as soon as the teeth
were through she would be all right.
But she still grew worse. Doctor
No. 8 said it was eczema. BY this
time she was nothing but yellow,
greenish sore. Well, he said he could
help her, so we let him try 1t about
q week. One morning we discovered
a little yellow pimple on one of
her eyes. OF course we 'phoned for
doctor No. 8. He came over and
looked her over, and said that he
could not do anything more for
her, that we had better taEo her
to some eye specialist, since it was
an ulcer. So we went to Oswego to
doctor No. 4, and he said the eye
sight was gone, but that he could
help it. We thought we would try
doctor No. 5. Well, that proved the
same, only he charged $40 more than
doctor No. 4. We were nearly dis
couraged. l saw one of the Cuti-
cura advertisements in the paper and
thought we would try the Cuticura
Treatment, so 1 went and purchased
a set of Cuticura Remedies, which
cost me 81, and in three days our
daughter, who had been sick about
eight months, showed great improve
ment. and in one week all sores had
disappeared. OF course it could not
restore the eyesight, but if we had
used Cuticura in time I am confident
that it would have saved the eye. We
think there is no remedy. so good for
any skin trouble or impurity of the
blood as Cuticura. Mr.. and Mrs. Frank

PrisciIla'a Revenge.

It was in the days of old when
knights were bold and dressed in
cleaning armor.

her daily task, wilt thou not help
me with my skeins?"
"By the tower of London-no!"
roared George, as he sharpened his
lance. You haven't spinning

Two hours later George returned
from the fray with his armor bat
tered and torn.

on my dress suit?"

sweetly. You haven't blacksmith

Rich Men Work for Pleasure.

Theodore Gill. the worlds greatest
authority on fishes, works for the
United States government, receiving
one dollar a month for his services. He
is a rich man on whom many univer-
sites have conferred titles and de-
grees. Dr. Harrison G. Dyer, another
wealthy man, who knows more about
mosquitoes than any other living per-
son, devotes much of his time to gov
ernment, receiving $25 month. Git
ford Pinchort, millionaire, is head of
the United States forestry service, but
he is comparatively we'll paid, his sal
ary being $45 per annum. Several
other rich men are on the government
pay roll at nominal figures, working
for the pleasure of doing things" as
President Roosevelt puts it.

SAID WOMEN MARRIED HIM.
Remarkable EXCUSE Put Forward by
French Bigamist.

At Versailles, France, recently a
baker was tried on a charge of polyg-
amy, having married five women,
who are living and undivorced. The
pentagamist's defense was that he
had not married the women; they had
married him. When they proposed
he had not the courage to say no.
Neither money nor love, he said, had
prompted his nuptials; he was the
victim OF the stronger wills of his
successive spouses. OF the five wives
three appeared as witnesses, but did
not prosecute, saying that their COM
mon husband was a topper of whom
they were glad to get rid. He was
acquitted-on what ground does not
appear. AS all the years in which
the multiplex husband took wives
were leap years except 1881, in which
it would seem that in four out of
the five cases the women had the
right to propose. But the man had
the right, even in the leap years, to
decline, and 1t was up to him at least
to explain to his fair suitors that he
was engaged. To establish the prin-
ciple that a man is not responsible
for the number of his wives unless
he himself does the counting, would
be plainly against public policy. If
"Barkis is willin," that at once puts
all the responsibility on him, nc
matter who managed the prelimi

While intended by it's owner as state

is civilized community on the face
of the globe where this wonderful pain

manufacture the greatest care is taken

Set Out Fruit.

1t is surprising how many farm
homes are without orchard or small
fruit plantations. 1t is some work to
get trees, bushes and vines started,
but the results pay for all work many
times over. Grapes are easy to grow
and take care of. Select such hardy
sorts as Concords, Moore's Early and
Worden. The best advice we can
give to anyone expecting to set out
fruit is to write to nearby nursery
and tell the owner just how much
space you want to devote to each
class of fruit He will doubtless rec
ommend the most suitable varieties
for you to set out, and this course
will save you whole lot of trouble
after awhile. The apple, pear and
plum orchard, with the smaller fruits,
come into bearing in few years after
setting. Do not delay getting off
your spring order.

Three Floor Plans of Round Barn.

between the circular and oblong forms
would amount to goodly sum.
The efficiency and economy of labor
in the circular barn is easily seen.
Everything is under one roof, one
feed room serves for all, there is no
wading through drifts from barn to
barn in winter, and by use of feed
carriers and wagon to gather
manure, labor and time are reduced
, to a minimum.
The cut is reproduced FROM a de-
sign by the author and requires little
explanation. The first floor is the
basement floor, and contains stanch-
ions for SO COWS, pens for sheep and
swine, four calving pens, milk room
provided with separator, testing APP
pliance, churn, etc., feed room, root
bin and an 1S-foot silo. There is a
driveway behind each row of stalls
to allow of cart being driven in to
remove manure, and the feed is
handled in a hand cart, similar to
those used by all up-todate dairymen.
The second floor is reached by two
slightly elevated driveways. 1t con-
tains stall room for Is horses, the
main granary, carriage and machinery
rooms. The floor under the horses
is rendered water tight by two layers
: of matched flooring sealed and coat
ed with a tar compound. The liquid
manure from both floors is conveyed
by drains to cement cistern.
The third floor is reached by short
viaduct, and here the silo is filled and
all thrashing done. Hay and bundles
; are unloaded by means of two circular
hay carriers. Water from the well is
pumped by windmill into a storage
tank just above the silo on the third
floor, thence being piped all through
the barn and house.
The floor of the second story is
supported by the partition studs of
the first floor, while the third floor
and roof are upheld by the silo and
four-inch posts. Six ventilating shafts
run from the first floor up the side
walls to the apex of the roof.
While the round barn may have its
faults, in the opinion of Prairie Farm
er, it is becoming to be considered
much superior to other forms in many
ways, and it's adherents are increasing
rapidly, especially in the dairy Sec
| tionS.

A WELCOME FOR MAY
Pretty Custom Once Com
mon That Is Well Worthy
of ReUiUal To6ay-May
Day Luncheon.

1t is a custom worthy of revival that
of sending gifts of flowers and fruit on
the first day of May. So let US re-
member the hospitals and charitable
homes for children for nothing is so
acceptable to either old or young as
a flower, the love of even very young
children for fragrant blossoms is pro
verbal. Let us all bear this in mind
and joyfully add another day to our
calendar of special celebrations. 1t is
one of the most hopeful signs OF the
times to observe how merchants,
hOstesses and schools are recognizing
these delightful festival days. We
cannot have too much of legendary
romance and sentiment put into our
altogether too practical, hurried lives.
Children eagerly welcome any inno-
walton from the commonplace, so let
them share in the preparations for
May day 1t makes them happier and
in consequence better. II it is too
cold to have outdoor fetes, the spirit
and letter of the law may be carried
out indoors. Most charming May
baskets can be made by braiding crepe
tissue paper, then sewing it together,
alternating strips of white and green
work up effectively. A handle IS
braided and sewed on and the recep-
tacle filled with flowers. Covers for
ported plant and earthen fern dishes
are made in the same manner and add
much to the beauty and attractiveness
of these gifts.
