province of Shantung, in the western

is required to PROSTATE himself nine
times when he pays his respects to
the duke, but the few Europeans
who have visited the place have Deen

making only their customary saluta-

over 2,40O years in one place. Con

Of Shantung the town has been al
most unattainable by foreigners; and
even today few pilgrims, unsustained
by firm purpose, will undergo the
great discomforts of the journey
there. Six days are required to reach
the town from the railroad at Tsinan
fu. The road is too bad for driving
and the choice is offered to the tour
list between six days on donkey or

deyotees from the western world
are likely to wait for the improve
ment of transportation facilities.
Several hours before the city is
reached the visitor may see the large
cemetery in which the remains Of
Confucius and his descendants re-
pose. Near the top of a gentle emil
nence is a terrace to which stone
stairway gives access. The terrace
is covered with tagging stones, not
in the best of repair, for the surface
is uneven, and at the further side or
the tagging opposite the stairway
rises a tombstone of ordinary height
embedded in mortar between cross
pieces of stone. The fiat surface is
covered with the inscription, and in
front of it are a stone prayer stool
and a handsome vessel in which in
cense is constantly burning.
This is the modest and simple tomb
of the man who was deified by his
countrymen and whose temples, rear
ed for his honor and worship, may be
seen in all the larger cities of the
empire.-London Globe.

! We commend it without reservation
to the considerate judgment of the
American people.
The state convention will be held
MAY IA at Macon, and its business
besides determining whether or not
to put out a state ticket will be to
name four delegates from the state
at large to the national convention
in Denver and to name new state
committee. The other national del
egates will be chosen by the district
organizations.
Harmony prevailed at the meeting.
although a few false notes indicated
strong undercurrent of factional
feeling. One feature of this is over
the place of national committeeman
and the other over the position the
state shall take as to the nomination
gency declare privately that the del
egates will be voted for Taft, al
though several of them may have.
individual opinions of a different ma
ture.
The only matter which caused
much enthusiasm was disfranchise
ment, and several made speeches de-
nouncing the proposition. AleXan-
Ter Alderman declared it unjust;
hudson Lyon of Augusta said it
should be defeated, and A. Graves of
Atlanta said that mo true American
should subscribe to such a theory"
Under a motion introduced by
Clark Grier, white member, circu
lars are to be gotten up and circu-
lated among members of the party
instructing them as to how to reg
lister and when to do so. He said
that in many counties an effort was
| being made to hold down the regis
terry list list by manipulation of the
present law.
Every possible inducement will be
made to get the negroes to pay up
their taxes and qualify to vote in the
next general state election. In the
county and district conventions and
in the primaries, if such are held.
none but those who have placed
themselves in position to cast a bal
lot will be allowed to participate in
any way. No one shall be allowed
to hold proxies except qualified vot-
ers belonging in the county of the
giver.

The Best Cure for Collie in Horse,

The Best Cure for Collie in Horses.
Collie is usually the result of indi-
gestion, caused by sudden changes
of feed, too long fasting, food given
when the horse is exhausted, new
hay or grain, or large quantities of
green food.
Every horse owner should keep
Sloan's Sure Collie Cure in his stable
as an insurance against collie, for an
attack of collie is liable to come on
without warning at any time, and
Sloan's Sure Collie Cure is the best
and safest remedy to use. 1t acts
instantly on the stomach and bowels
and can be given by a woman or
child,
Il cured a horse with collie that
had been treated by a good veteri-
nary surgeon for forty-eight hours, "
writes Mr.. r. A. Pierce of Cohutta
Springs, Ga. THE horse was about
dead, and the owner said he would
take cents for him. | gave him three
doses of Sloan's Sure Collie Cure and
he was up and eating hay in five min

ANOTHER TOUR OF STATE.
There Will BE Longer Stops and Time
for Demonstrations, and the Pol
iticians May BE Cut OFF.


iticians May BE Cut OF.
In a speech at the State University
chapel, in Athens, a few days ago
President Andrew NJ. Soule of the
State College of Agriculture told OF
the work that was done by the men IN
charge of the educational train that
recently toured Georgia.
He told of the great interest taken
in the train by the farmers all over
the state, how eagerly they graspeG
at every bit of information, how they
came by the thousands to see the eX-
hibits and to hear the lectures and
l,how they are now, by the hundreds,
sending him letters asking all kinds
of questions.
President Soule maintains that the
farmers of Georgia are losing annu-
ally $4O,OOO,OOO on account of lack
of educational training along the
lines of better methods. He sums up
this loss as follows: On lint cotton
S12.OOO,O00, on cotton seed meal So
! 100000, bad handling of seed So
600 900, diseases $5,00O,0O0, failure
to use good seed 100000, cattle
tick 100000, neglect of livestock
$4,000, 900, purchase of nitrogen So
100000 labor and implements So
100000: total $40,000,000.
President Soule stated that it is
work that should enlist the interest
and the effort of the people Of the
state and should be maintained from
financial standpoint to whatever
| extent may be necessary, the effort to
provide better methods and to induce
the farmers to adopt them, so that
this vast sum may be saved to the
individuals and to the state. 1t may
take years to accomplish it, he said,
but this is the goal to which the man
agement of the state college is tend
ing. The state is losing every year
at least S5,OOO,O00 from anthracnose,
and surely it is important for it to
appropriate enough money to make
study of the disease and check it II
not entirely eradicate it.
Speaking of the tour of the car
next year, if it is arranged, President
Soule said that it will be on differ
ent and broader line in many ways.
If the railroads again come forward
with the generous support that they
accorded the movement this year and
the proper support is given the move
ment from other sources the educa-
tional train will again visit the peo-
ple of Georgia next spring. II TINS
trip is arranged the stops Will be less
frequent and the train will stay at
given place longer.
Many practical features will be
added, and in so far as possible there
will be more of practical work and
less speaking. 1t will be made TO
large extent a practical demonstra-
tion on a small scale of what is being |
done at the state college.
