Do you wear white clothes all through
Spring and Summer? Makes too much
washing, you say. Not if you use
Fels-Naptha soap.
Fels- Naptha keeps white clothes fresh
and clean with little work at little cost.
You wash them with Fels-Naptha in cold
or lukewarm water without boiling and
you don't have disagreeable steaming suds.
Then your clothes wear longer if
washed with Fels-Naptha No boiling to
weaken their fibre; no hard-rubbing to
wear and tear them
-Naptha will not harm the most
delicate fabrics. Fels-Naptha makes it
easier to wear white clothing. Be sure. to
follow directions on the red and green
wrapper.
Fels-Napha will tighten the labors of housekeeping.
just as it does the drudgery of wash day.

Important in the Revolution.

But the town and the church grew and
prospered, and Augusta became an i'm
port ant point during the revolution. The
Rev. James Seymour, who continued rec
tor of ST. Pauls from I'LL to 1871, saw
the fort three times taken and retaken,
and his church used by both the patriots
and the British for military purposes. In
1880 the BRITISH commander fortified the
churchyard and the burying ground and
Fort CORVALLIS. in honor Of his lordship.
was then commander-in-chief of the de-
partment of the south. Lighthouse
Harry Lee captured it in 1881 after
desperate fight, in which the turf of the
churchyard was drenched with blood and
| the graves were covered with the bodies
of the slain. The church itself was al
most destroyed in that battle. and the
parson. Rev. Mr.. Seymour, who was a
| tory and was accused of giving aid and
comfort to the soldiers of the king. fed
into the tall timbers for refuge, and
| after many privations made his way on
| foot to Savannah. When the war was
| over his parishioners asked him to return
| because he was man of piety and aDtl-
ty and worth, but the associat tons were
| not agreeable and he went elsewhere.
Three houses Of worship have been built
| upon the site. The first. in 1880, was a
| very small one; the second was raised
| upon its ruins after peace with England
| was declared, and the present building
| which dates back to 1919. and was en-
! iarged by the addition of the beautiful
| chancel in 1888.

but it was the only church of any kind

its rectors were missionaries to the In

Rev. Jonathan COpp. who was sent out in
1751 to administer to the spiritual needs
of the thriving settlement which had
sprung up around Fort Augusta. wrote
home voluminous letters in which he gave
a pessimistic view of the situation. He
reported that the people lived lin daily

massacre. and that "a great concourse

Many Costly Memorials.

The old church contains many costly
memorials of noted men and devoted
women who have been among it's men,

nephew Of our first President. died in
Augusta January 10. 1900. and was buried
in the churchyard. but no stone was ever
erected 10 his memory. and the site of his
grave has been forgotten. Lieut. Gen.
commander of a corps in the Confederate
army. is buried in a vault under the
sanctuary. He is the only bishop that
was ever a lieutenant general that | can
remember OF, and the only lieutenant
general that was ever a bishop His
monument is a work Of art, and was made
In Paris at the expense of the officers of
his staff.
Another important memorial has been
erected to Judge John F. King, for two
terms senator of the United States from
Georgia. and for forty years president of
the Georgia railroad.
In the churchyard, on the eastern side.
is the grave of Rev. Washington Nc
knight, the first Presbyterian minister

On the other side is the tomb of Will

successfully on the Savannah river in
1906 one year before Fulton's Clermont

One of the most conspicuous tombs is
that of Commodore Oliver Bowen. "Ad-

daring attack, captured shipload of
British powder off Savannah and sent
half of it to Gen. Washington, thus en-
aiding him to drive the British out of

An Arrogant Patriot.

An Arrogant Patriot.
Another revolutionary hero buried in
st. Pauls is Gen. Matthews. one Of the
earliest governors of Georgia, who. &C.
cording to his epitaph. died in Augusta in
1872. He commanded the 9th Virginia
Regiment in the revolution, which stood
firm at the battle of Brandywine and
enabled Washington to. rally the rest OF
his badly ratified troops. Gov. Matthews
was very proud of his military record.
and particularly of that incident and to
the end of his days he used to tell the
story as the most important military event
In the revolution, second only to the Dec
laration OF Independence, and declared
that he had saved his country He was
very proud and arrogant and would not
admit that any man on earth was his
superior in ability or valor excepting
George Washington.
After the expiration OF his second term
as governor of Georgia, President John
Adams nominated him for governor of the
Mississippi territory. but for some reason
that was never explained sent message
to the Senate shortly AFTER Withdrawing
the nomination. Matthews was furious
with Indignation. and. mounting his ia
vorte horse. with his revolutionary uni
form. topboOts and sword in pannier
behind him. started from Augusta and
rode all the way to Philadelphia, which
was then the seat of government Array
ing himself in his revolutionary ruffies
and sword. he gave laundering knock
on the door OF the presidential mansion,
and demanded an interview with the
President instantly. The servant told
him that his eXceliency was engaged. but
that was a tri1e to Matthews. who de-
cIared that he would remain until the
President was disengaged. He was shown
into the parlor and after waiting an hour
or more when Mr.. Adams was at lei
sure. he was ushered into the presence of
the executive.
II presume YOU are the President of
the United States sad Gov. Matthews
in a stern and impressive way.
Mr.. Adams bowed.

SUNDAY CLOSING LAW
At ATLANTIC CITY
VEXES FORT
Governor of New Jersey An
nOunCeS He viii Call Extra
Session of the Legislature.
ALL OTHER PLACES
HAVE BEEN CLOSED

Sea Girt, N. j., Aug. 27.-In a
startling proclamation issued today
Governor Fort declared that unless
the excise law was observed IN At
lantic City. which he calls the Satur-
MALTA of vice. next sunday and all sa-
looms and cafes closed tightly, he will
call an extraordinary session of the
legislature and may send state troops
to the famous resort. declaring the
city under martial law. In the proc
lamation the governor ridicules the
fiasco of ten days ago when the grand
jury refused to find indictments and
says that three members of the jury
were saloonmen and others In smypa-
thy with the violators of the law.
The cafes and saloons at Atlantic
City have remained open In violation
of the Sunday closing law apparently
with the idea of making a test of the
law. While every other resort in the
state has been tightly closed each
Sunday, Atlantic City has been wide
open and as a consequence was large
ly patronized on those days.

REGARD BRYAN
WITH D|SFAVOR
His Candidacy is Not Liked by the
Voters OF Old Dominion and on
This the Leaders are BdSinq
Their Hope of Breaking
''SOlid South"

Washington, Aug. 27.--Republican
campaign managers in the capital are
elated over the prospect of carrying
Virginia for Taft in November and Of
breaking the solid south" vote. They
base the hope partly on the good inn
preston Taft has made on the Old
Dominion during. his stay at Hot
Springs and partly on the coldness
which Virginia has shown to Bryan.
While the courtesy that has been
shown Taft does not mean particul-
arly that the state will pile up a ma
jority for him November 8. there Is
no doubt but that the Republican
candidate has won the regard of a
good many voters by his straightfor-
ward discussion OF Issues In several
speeches, in all of which he showed
remarkable clear-sightedness in
grasping the questions brought forth
in the campaign.
Virginia does not regard Bryan
with any degree Of pleasure. The
state rolled up big vote for Parker
over Roosevelt but the candidacy OF
Bryan has never appealed to the vot-
ers of the state and on this the Re-
publican managers are basing their
greatest hope that the state will sup
| port Taft.
