AN OPEN LETTER
To the People Of Marietta.

To Whom 1t May Concern:
OF late there has been a good deal of
discussion in Marietta in regard to ad-
vertised medicines and their value-the
papers are full of them.
We want to say to every man, woman
and child in Marietta that we believe
the most valuable preparation of cod
liver oil-the best tonic reconstruction
health restorer and strength creator
we have ever sold in our store is Vinol.
Vinol is not patent medicine, it con-
tains no injurious drugs. but it actually
does contain sll of the medicinal, cura-
tive elements taken from fresh Gods
livers, without drop of the useless oil
to upset the stomach and retard it's
work, and tonic iron added.
Vinol is recognized throughout the
world as the greatest strength. creator
for old people, weak, sickly women and
children, nursing mothers, and after a
severe sickness.
Vinol cures hacking coughs, chronic
colds, bronchitis, and all throat and
lung troubles. We ask the people of
Marietta TO try Vinol on our offer to
return money if it fails. G. M. Crosby
& Co., Marietta.

Marriage soon cures a man of
the flattery habit.
In the real drama of life the

They have traced the origin of
the recent Tampa fire to a man
who went to bed smoking a cigar
cite. AS a net result over 300
buildings were burned, including
residences, hotels, factories and
business places; 1000 people were
made homeless, a woman diedfrom
shock, 1900 workers were thrown
out of employment, and his smoke
cost about 100000. OF course,
the careless smoker was sorry, just
as the next careless smoker, who
works more destruction than a
blizzard or a tornado, will be.

REAL RDuCATION.

There was an idea in olden times
and it is not yet dead-that
whoever was educated ought not TO
work-that he should use his head
and not his hands. Graduates
were ashamed to be found engaged
in manual labor, in blowing fields,
in sowing or il gathering grain.
To this manly kind of independ-
ence they preferred the garrett and
the precarious existence of ali un-
appreciated poet, b orr win &
their money from their friends,
and their ideas from the dead.
The educated regarded the useful
as degIading-they we're willing
to stain their souls to keep their
hands white.
The object of all education
should be to increase the useful
ness of man-usefulness to himself
and others. Every human being
should be taught that his first duty
is to take care of himself, that to
be self-respecting he must be self
supporting. To live on the labor
of others, either by force which
enslaves, or by cunning which
robs, or by borrowing or begging
is wholly dishonorable Every
man should be taught some useful
art. His hands should be educa-
ted as we'll as his head. He should
be taught to deal with things as
they are-with life as it is. This
would give feeling of independ-
ence, which is the firmest founda-
tion of honor, of character,
Every man knowing that he Is
useful, admires himself.

A year ago DR.. Sill of Worcester.
Mass, aged 80, had presentiment
that he would die in six months.
He was well-to-do. So firmly did
he believe that he had only six
months to live that he gave away
all OF his property and money to
charitable institutions and person.
al friends, reserving only enough
to last him until the time of his
prospective death. But he didn' t
die; and, failing to shuttle off, he
found himself penniless. And,
being penniless, his friends and
the charitable institutions that he
had loaded with his bounty declin-
ed to do any thing for him, 80 the
old man was the other day carried
to the county poorhouse where,
while awaiting death as charge
upon the community, he will have
time to contemplate his own stu.

ish, or county, is what you would
call "piney woods" and the most
of it is long leaf pine, though we
have what we call "brushy woods. "
This "brushy woods" is where the
short leaf pines grow. The soil is
gray or dark loan, sandy land,
suitable for nearly every kind of
vegetable, corn and cotton, and all
kinds of melons. Corn will make
from Is to 20 bushels per acre,
without fertilizers, and cotton
from one-half to a bale per acre.
This is an average crop-though l
have seen plenty of this land yield
from 20 to 30 bushels per acre of
corn; and it is a great country for
potatoes and syrup cane, the
finest kind; in fact, everything
that is used for the table. Wheat,
also, grows very we'll here.
Well, must say something
about our stock range. 1t is very
fine for cattle in the summer,
and does very well for same pur-
pose in winter. For hogs, think
it beats any country l was ever in.
/ kill all the meat want, and lots
of it to sell, every year, and don't
give them q grain of corn. We
have swamps that have fine mast,
the white oak and pin oak, and
We have post oak and red oak in
the hills; and we have good water,
wells and springs; we have two
new railroads running through our
parish, the Rock Island and the
fremont & Gulf. Our nearest
market by rail is Chathamville. |
We have a great industry here in |
my ward, a turpentine distlllery, |
IN miles of my home. They work
over one hundred housekeeping
pines and dipping and hauling, |
and 1t looks pretty to 60 through
the turpentine orchard.
Well, Messrs. Editors, | see that
politics are hot in old Cobb, and
that there are some very promi-
nent gentlemen announced for
commissioners. Your humble
writer has filled that office for the
last II years. We are called Police
Jury, instead of Commissioners
we attend TO all public roads and
public buildings, control all of
the finances of our parish, elect
our parish treasurer, and attend to
a whole lot of things.
Well, will say l hope to meet
a lot of my old brother soldiers at
Birmingham at theIConfederate re-
union. l want all of old Co. B,

there.

The Southern Railway closed
down on the repair department of
It's shops in Atlanta last week and
$50 to 200 men were thrown out of
employment. Officials of the road
say that the orders affects only
some 10 per cent, of the men en-
ployed. 1t is understood that
similar action is being taken by
the Southern at all points where
it has shops, snd that over a
thousand men will be thrown out
of work. The only explanation by
officials of the road is that there
Is no work for the men to do, and
that the road cannot afford to paw
them for remaining idle. One of
the employees affected by the order
says the following men were put
out in Atlanta: IS machinists at
$500 per day; Is helpers at $3.50;
e blacksmiths at So. 20; % carpen-
tiers at $2.50to $2.75; 25 apprentice
boys at 81, and 5 painters at $3.50.

God never gains any happiness nor
does he accomplish anything in his
efforts. Laughter is Gods preventa-
tive OF insanity"
The speaker referred to the great
difference between the wit and the
humorist, which is seldom realized by
the majority of people. The wit makes
fun at other peoples expense. His fun
Originates in his head. The humorist
bring his fun from his heart and
would make no one unhappy for the
benefit of others. "Let us be hum
orists," said the speaker.
Happiness is not gained by wealth.
Cassie Chadwick sat at the time OF
her trial in Cleveland with the most
costly diamonds on her hands, as she
bit her lips until the blood came and
her fingers cracked until they could
be heard over the entire room. The
diamonds failed to make her happy.
In closing his remarks, DR.. Hedley
urged that people realize the vanity
of human wishes and seek to gain
that which will make ourselves and
others happy This Is in the study of
God. in the appreciation of present
in culture and in the de-
veopment of Christian love for all

LARGE CROWD
HEARS LECTURE
DR.. Redley Speaks at Y. M.
c. A. Auditorium.
TOPIC "TnE SUNNY SIDE"
The Speaker Possesses Re-
markable Eloquence
Says That Wit Makes Fun at the
Expense of Others While Fun
Originates IN the Heart.

"The Sunny Side of Life" was the
subject of a most able discourse de-
llvered before a large audience in the
auditorium of the Y. M. G. A. Mon
day evening by DR.. James Hedley.
Despite the fact that the weather
conditions were inclement the audi
torium was well filled.
Those who attended the lecture
heard nothing but the old story of
the futllity OF earthly wealth and the
admonition to seek happiness in the
study of Gods world, all put in words
which thrilled the mind and heart of
one who had heard it again and
again. DR.. Hedley possesses re-
markable flow of the best Ian
guage Seldom has an orator been
heard in this city, who was possessed
in such musical talent in the compo-
sition of words and in the painting OF
word pictures.
DR.. Hedley in his remarks dwelt on
the fact that happiness is not de-
pendent on surroundings or environ
ment but It Is entirely dependent on
the conscience. A man enjoys life
and is happy II his heart is right
and under no other conditions is he
happy. The greatest reason why peo-
pie are not right in their consciences
is because they connot be contented
under any circumstances. The COW
etous are always discontented," said
the speaker. '"After all happiness is
not in the world. 1t rs in the heart.
Some people believe that happiness
dwells where riches abound, but
those who live in granite houses are
by no means happy"
Many discontented people are prone
to believe that happiness dwells with
some other people. Somewhere there
must be Utopian land or Brook
farm where everything is lovely and
where everyone Is contented with his
lot. This land is never found and
