poor health for the past month, but
has been only confined to his bed
for the past ten days. lie is nearly
SO years old.
This announcement will come with

suppose he was older.
Mr. Harris is in his early sixties.
He was twenty-eight when he first
published in the Atlanta Constitution
the first of his Uncle Remus stories
that, much to the surprise Of their
author, made him famous the world

Dropping that for a time, however,
he soon returned to editorial work,
this time as the editor of Uncle Re-

play for his ripper talent as story
writer and essayist.
