MAHARA'S MINSTRELS.

Don't fail to see Mahara's Big Min
strel Carnival that will be at the opera
house on Friday night, Nov. 29th. This
company is composed entirely of col
ored people, and is the oldest Of all
colored organizations. 1t is also the
only company that appears in the same
town year after year, their success be-
ing that they never break a promise.
They are the producers of mirth music
and melody, by race that Is as free
from care as children, bubbling over
with happiness. A glance of approval
ever brings smile, laugh or song
from the lips and shuttle from the
feet. The company this season has
been embellished with new scenery,
wardrobe, new songs and dances. There
is not dull moment throughout the
entire performance. The company mum
bers about thirty performers, of whom
twelve are young women, who both
sing and dance. II 1t is your aim to
spend an evening full of happiness and
good cheer, bring your entire family
and see this big company. There will
be special street parade at noon on
the day Of the performance.

AGRICULTURAL SCHOOL.

To each of the eleven agricultural
colleges of the State nearly 81, 600 a
year will be paid from the sale of fer
tilizer tags and from oil inspections.
The Attorney. General has just advised
the Comptroller that such is the law.
There are many people in the Seventh
who are planning to send their young
people to the institution at Powder
Springs as soon as it is opened. Next
year the amount received from the sale
of tags may be good deal larger. The
price OF the tags will doubtless be in
creased by legislative enactment. Such
a move was planned last year, but for
fear Of increasing the price of fertilizers
to the farmer, the bill was never passed.
The fears were doubtless ill-grounded
as other States that have higher prices
for the tags sell the product at the
same price.-Rome Herald.

THE USE OF CHECKS.

The public should be taught the
use of checks, and the desirability
of opening individual bank &C.
counts on which checks can be
drawn. There is no reason why
wage. earners and salaried en-
ployes should not be paid by
checks, deposit these checks and
draw upon these deposits by checks
to suit their need and resources. A
general practice of this sort would
encourage thrift, and, at the same
time, familiarize the bulk of the
population with the principles of
banking, or, at any rate, with the
rudimentary principles; it would
make exchange easier, facilitate
circulation and soundly extend the
system of credit, which is the
oasis of business. That this can
be done with benefit to the coun-
try and with profit to the banks
there can be TO doubt, and it is
well that the public should be-
come familiar with the idea and
it's practice Boston Herald.

LOOKING FOR SIGHTS.

There are some people always
locking out for slight They can
not pay visit, they cannot even
receive a friend, they cannot carry
on the daily intercourse of the
family, without suspecting some
offense is designed. They are as
touchey as hair triggers. II they
meet an acquaintance on the street
who happens to be preoccupied
with business they attribute
his abstraction to some motive
personal to themselves, and take
umbrage accordingly. They lay
on others the fault of their own
irritability. A fit of indigestion
makes them see impertinance i'll
everybody they come i'll contact
with. Innocent persons who never
dreamed of giving offense, are, by
momentary taciturnlty, mistaken
for ali jnsult. TO say the least,
the habit is unfortunate. 1t is far
wiser to take the more charitable
view Of our fellow beings, and not
suppose slight is intended unless
the neglect is open and direct.
After all, life takes it's hue, in
great degree. from the color of our
own mind. If we are frank and
generous, the world treats us kind
ly,. If, en- the contrary, we are
suspicious, men learn to be cold
and cautious to US. Let person
get the reputation of. being touchy,
and everybody is under more or
less restraint; and in this way the
chances of an imaginary offense
are vastly increased. People who
fire up easily miss much happiness.
Their jaundice tempers destroy
their own comfort as we'll as that
of their friends. They have always
some fancied slight to brood over.
