The OUTCAST'S GRATITUDE
A TALE OF TIE
rRlNCO-PRUSSIAN WAR.

The young Due de Hardimont was
in AK, in Savoy, for the treatment
of his famous, mare, Perichole, used
up since theacold she had taken at the
Derby. He was finishing luncheon,
when, casting careless glance at
the paper, he read the news of the
disaster of Reichshoffen
He drained his glass of Chartreuse,
flung his napkin on the restaurant
two hours later he took the Paris ex-
press, and, on arriving, fastened to
the recruiting Office and enlisted.
In spite of having led, from nine
teen to twenty-five, the enervating
life of a petit creve-the word then
current-of having brutalized himself
on the race course and in the dressing
rooms of operetta singers, circum-
stances like these recalled forcibly to
him that Enguerraud de Hardimont
had died of the plague in Tunis on
the same day as ST. Louis; that Jean
de Hardimont had commanded the
-Grandes Companies under Du Cues
lin; and that Francois Henri de Hardi-
mont was killed at Fontenoy, charg-
ing with the Maison-R Rouge. Done up
though he was by his scandalous and
imbecile liaison with Lucy Violette,
the prima donna of the "Nudites-Pa-
risiennes," the young duke, on learn
ing that battle had been lost by the
French on French soil, felt his blood
rush to his head and experienced the
hideous impression of a blow in the
face
Thus is was that early in Novem-
Der of 1870, having returned to Paris
with his regiment belonging to the
Fincy- Corps, Henri de Hardimont,
fusileer in the Third of the Second
and member of the Jockey, was on
guard with his company before the
redoubt of the Hautes Bruyeres. a
hastily fortified position, protected by
the sauns OF the Bicetre fort

muddy ruts, crossing the leprous fields

fighting here a few days before; the
grApe-shot had broken in two some
of ethe spindling trees, all of which
bore on their bark the white scars

had caved in under a shell, and the
reddish walls seemed smeared with

THE DANCE.

The lamp of silver and the lamp of

Make all the shifting prospect fair

We meet, we gaze, each others hands

We clasp and move together in the

Alone and separate through the ut

The Fatal Powder puff.

With the fluffy end of powder
puff sticking from his mouth,
French poodle, the property of Miss
Naomi Darlington of 1850 Gates
street, threw the mill district of Man
ayunk into wild excitement and fell
needless victim of the scare of
which he was the innocent cause,
says the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Miss harrington had gone to drug
store in the neighborhood of her
home to buy a powder puff. When
she had made the selection, she told
the clerk that he need net wrap it
up; that she would carry 1t in her
hand. Unfortunately she dropped it,
and the dog, named Curly, from his
hair picked 1T up, The handle slip
ped down the dogs throat, and in wild
alarm the poodle started down the
street
In the neighborhood of Main and
Rector streets employees were stream

flying dog apparently frothing at the
mouth, scattered in CONSERVATION, Po-
liceman Green, who happened to be

MILLINERY OPENING.

The millinery display of trimmed
hats at the J. R. King Dry Goods Co. g
on Tuesday and Wednesday was by far
the prettiest that this popular house
has had in many seasons. The store
and millinery apartment we're beauti-
fully decorated by decorators from At
lants, and they displayed fine taste in
making this store attractive IN green
and white
The stylish hats were "things of
beauty and Joy forever" and Miss
Baugh, the trimmer, and her compe-
tent assistants, Misses Rogers and
Moon, did themselves credit. A stream
of people we're going and coming all
through the day tuesday. A large
number of ladies came up from Allan
ia and made purchases, the hats being
much more stylish and far cheaper than
could be procured in Atlanta, it paying
them to pay their car fares to make
their selections.
The new and beautiful dress goods,
so prettily displayed in windows and
on counters by Mrs Nash, lady of de-
cided good taste and judgment, who
selects the dress goods and trimmings
each season for this house, was a dis
tinct compliment to her, and many or
ders were given for new fall suits.
The j. r. King Dry Goods Company
have gained deserved reputation for
their stylish goods and beautiful mil
linery, and their trade is increasing
each year.

EDUCATION.

The colleges in Georgia, male and fe-
male, are filling up to overfowing-a
good indication OF tbs prosperity
of the people, and their ability to
give their sons and daughters col
legiate education. There is no bet
ter legacy to leave young people than a
thorough education. 1t tells all through
life in good results attained The
young man or woman who has fin
ished education is better prepared and
equipped to master conditions and win
success, as we'll as accomplish more. 1t
is like skilled labor-it is practical, ben
eficiaI and inyincible. Give your chill
dren good education and you will arm
them for life's battle, if they have the
manhood and womanhood to back it.

CONSUMPTION OF COTTON.

Government statistics just published
show that American manufactUre rs
alone, in the year ending August 81,
1907, took 5 ,296, 1888 bales, as against 4 :
800 $50 the year before, which means
an increased consumption right here at
home of approximately half million
bales in one year.-Atlanta Constitu-
ton.
This goes to prove our contention
that the consumption Of cotton is on
the increase from year to year, and in
creased production is absolutely neces-
sary in order to supply the increased
demand. The crop made this year will
not supply TIE demand, and the farmer
ought to get fifteen cents for his cotton,
and he will do it if the spectators dc
not scare him into selling too soon

A BEAUTIFUL DISPLAY.

Mrs. Ellen Irish's elegant display of
millinery and trimmed hats Tuesday
and Wednesday elected admiration and
compliments from the many callers at
that popular bazaar of fashionable mil
linery goods. The new trimmer, Miss
Marlborough, has won very favorable
tribute to her good taste, and the beau
tiful hats there have already brought
many orders. Mrs Irish seeks to:please,
and is building up very satifactor
business. She is deserving lady, and
has made many friends since her BUSH
ness career in Marietta began.
