Parents do wrong in keeping their
children hang.n around home, shell
tered and enervated by parental in
diligence. The eagle does better. 1t
stirs up its nest when the young ca
giles are able to fly. They are compel
led to shift for themselves, for the
old eagle literally turns them out,
and at the same tine tears all the
down and feathers from the nest. IT'S
this rude and rough experience that
makes the king of birds so fearless
in his flight and so expert in the pur-
suit of prey. 1t is misfortune to be
born with silver spoon in your
mouth, for you have it to carry and
plague you all your days.. Riches of
ten hang like dead weight. Yea,
like milestone about the neck of am
bilious young men.

THE POLITICAL SPEAKING.

The political speaking at the Court
House Saturday last drew a fairly
large crowd. The heavy rains of the
proceeding days had the creeks up
and cuff down the attendance some.
The house was nearly full. Besides
Scott and Sisson there were present,
and spoke, three other candidates for
State birth, but for minor offices,
among this number was S. d.
MeNair. ~ni
We will treat the other fellowsslike
they did us, awfully nice personally;
we met them and cordially wrung
their hands, but will ignore them in
the newspaper, like they did US.
The State candidate who don't ex-
press enough interest in our period
ical to subscribe, need not expect to
borrow paper and see where he got
a lot of free advertising. We are
not fishing for their dollars, but want
it understood why we are not footing
blast for them through our horn.
They can t buy any endorsement into
these columns, but they can show
some political sense. 1t takes money
to run this paper, and we run it to
tell the news and tell about our
clientele, SO if your political friends
get left out on the mention question
just remember that he don't belong
to our patronage.

 The English believed Burns to be an American. while as a matter. of fact he Is a Canadian, and it is evident that much of his unpopularity IS que to that fact.

 "It was not the fault of Burns that the splendid crowd that packed the National Club in every part had to sit out such a disappointing show, Molr was the man to blame. It is not our policy to go back on loser, but MOTT was absolutely pitiful.

WHOLESALERS DENY THAT
 FIREWORKS ARE HIGHER

 To That Effect.

To That Effect.
 Rumors to the effect that there will a shortage in the fireworks crop this season and that prices would be high has been started by some of the small dealers in the last few weeks but the wholesalers say that there is nothing in it. Quantities of the fireworks are being received in Montgomery daily and those who are doing wholesale business are sending this goods out rapidly.
 One of the largest local fireworks wholesale dealers In the South was seen yesterday afternoon by an Adver- tiser representative on the matter and he stated that as far as fireworks are concerned that this will be an ideal Christmas as there are plenty of them and that prices are about the same as they were last year. A good supply is now on hand and more are coming in daily while the smaller merchants in the little towns are now getting their supply.
 Contrary to the general conditions in many other lines of business this year the small dealers who sell fire works are buying about the same as they usually have. Local business is good and promises to continue until about Christmas time and the supply Is large enough to fill all orders.
