Inducements that other towns and
cities are offering while we might not
make any profit off them in water or
taxes for five or ten years yet they
would be compelled to have houses
built to shelter their employees this
would require the labor of our carpen-
tiers and brickmasons to build these
houses and it would require painters to
paint them. Many of these workmen
now have to pay car fare and go to
Atlanta to make their living These
houses would at once become a part
of the taxable property of cur city,
the manufacturer would employ our
people; he would manufacture his
goods, send them out and bring the
money of others back into Marietta
he would pay his employees aud they
would pay our merchants. 1t would
make Marietta greater and the sur
rounding lands more valuable, we
would all reap the benefit.
1t seems to me the future welfare
of our interests as a city demand a
very liberal policy along this line and
if | am elected propose to pursue
this policy for we need more factories
and more places for our people to
work-no matter if it does cause
higher prices for labor | would
rather see higher wages, ten to one,
than low wages. Let labor have its
just reward,

In the first place we voted for the
Water and Sewerage bonds. We
worked for their passage and we shall
back up the Water Board with
united council to carry it to success.
We advocate an abundant supply of
pure water from Black Jack Mountain
streams. If the owners of the pres
ent water works will sell US that part
of their pipes and other necessaries
the City could utilize with the new
system we would advocate buying it
if they will sell it at reasonable
price, but for the health and welfare
OF ourselves and our families we must
have as pure water as can be found.
If | am elected [ shall do all in
my power to induce new manufacture
ing enterprises to locate here. With
an abundant supply of water, and all
of it owned by the City, why could
we not afford to furnish water at cost
to any new enterprise, if it should
take that inducement to bring them
here. The city could not lose any
thing by it. But suppose an induce
ment of that kind should not be suf-
ficient, then why could we not exempt
them from city taxation for a period
Of five or ten years? We could lose
nothing by this transaction either for

A Woman's Nature Story.

Mrs. William Holbrook of Harps-
well, Me-, is the owner of a cat which
was whipped by robins, and Mrs.
Thomas Welsh of the same town has
a cat that permits deserted chickens
to nestle in her fur to keep warm"
Mrs. Holbrook says her cat, called
Jim Blaine, tried to catch a young
robin on the lawn, and that the par
ent birds called a score of robins to
their assistance. The birds were fight
ing mad, and two of them chased Jim
Blaine into the house. Mrs. Hol-
brook took the cat and put it out on
the porch, and the robins formed
line between the fiedglings and the
porch and in bird language dared
Jim Blaine to come on. Jim refused
the call to combat. Mrs. Welsh's cat
made friends with the fluffy, cheeping
chicks after her kittens had been
taken from her. The cat and the chick
ems have been photographed together.

Oh, Yes, We're supertitIous.

A man stood on a lower Broadway
corner with box Of good luck rings.
They were horseshoe nails made into
rings, bright like silver, glittering in
the sun. 1t was amazing the number
of people who went up and bought
these rings of the man, fitting them
carefully on their fingers, paying for
them, walking off with them, turning
them this way and that to admire
them, though their price was only a
nickel.
"Do you make your living selling
them?" asked a woman who bought a
very fetching one for her third finger.
Eyes, madam" said he.
"There must be lot of superstiti-
Gus people in New York." said she, "if
a man can make his living by selling
horseshoe nail rings at a nickel
apiece"

WANTS 5000 900 TELESCOPE.
Better Way of Solving Mystery Of
Mars Than $4,000, 900 Mirror.

Berlin.-Director Friedrich S. Arch
enbold of the Treptow Observatory,
Berlin's official astronomer, dashes
cold water on the proposal of Prof.
Pickering of Harvard that a mirror
siX-tenths of mile square be used for
the purpose of establishing communi-
cation with the inhabitants of Mars.
Prof. Archenbold says that while he
respects Prof. Pickering as an able
and serious scientist he cannot agree
with him that optical understanding
with Mars is possible, because at the
time when Mars nears the earth the
Inhabitants of that planet, If 1t has
any, would be unable to see the
earth, since at that time the suns
rays come between the two planets.
Prof. Archenbold thinks, moreover,
that it would be a waste of money
to spend $10.O00,OOO for such a mir
ror, as he feels sure that at a cost of
only 100000 it would be possible to
construct a telescope by which any
body could see what is going on in
Mars. With such telescope he is
convinced that positive results would
be obtainable.

Wedding Rinu Finuer,

The idea that the wedding ring
should be worn on the third finger of
the left hand because "a nerve con-
meets this finger with the heart" is of
Roman origin, but, oddly enough, is
not continued on the Continent as in
England. for in France, Belgium and
Germany. and most other European
nations, the engagement ring" finger
is the third finger Of the left hand.
while the wedding ring" finger is the
third finger Of the right hand.

Spencer on Sports.

Herbert Spencer one time put very
neatly the distinction between sport
as an amusement and as an occupa.
ton. Dropping in at his club, he met
a young friend who invited him to
play billiards. The philosopher led
off and left the balls in a good posi-
tion for his opponent, who dexterously
ran out, not allowing his companion
another shot.
After depositing his cue in the rack
the philosopher remarked: "Sir. a
certain proficiency in such sport as
this is sign of a good education Of
the eye, the nerve, the hand, but the
mastership of billiards which you have
exhibited could have been acquired
only by an ill-spent YOUTH

THE WAY TO ENCOURAGE YOUR
HUSBAND WHO Is STRUG-
CLING FOR A LIVING.

Do not hesitate to remind him
every few days that you have
nothing decent to wear-never
have had since you we're mar.
ried.
Ask him, every little while,
"Why is it we never have any
thing like other people; never
go anywhere?"
Do not fail to tell him now
and then that he has been hard
up for money ever since you
were married.
Do not forget to twit him
with the fact that he took you
out of comfortable home and
buried you in an obscure, out
of-the-way place, and that he
never has time to go anywhere
with you.
Do not forget to remind your
husband often that your chill
dren do not dress as other chill
dren do; that the girls should
take music lessons from the
best teachers, and that they
should have a first-class piano
and other things to correspond.
Do not encourage your chill
dren to wear their clothes a
long time; and never try to
make them over. When a gar
ment begins to show wear, to
get little out of date, just
cast it aside and get a new
one. New clothes look so much
fresher and smarter than old
ones, and one feels so much
better in them.
Do not try to economic too
much. You know it is the
liberal soul that gets fat. Be
generous with your husbands
money.-Success Magazine.
