hove been supplied with artificial

OF all animals horses seem most
nrone to tooth troubles, and the
horse dentist is now quite common
in England and in America. A dent
ist in New York makes an income Of
over $4,000 a year by fitting horses,
dogs and cats with false teeth. A
while ago a society lady in London
had her valuable pug dog, which
had gained many prizes at shows,
fitted with a full set of artificial
teeth at q cost of S125. One of the
elepnants at the Paris Zoo had an
aching mOlar, which was giving it
temper that was growing danger
Gus. The medical officer at the zoo
decided to remove the offending
tooth, but, finding this a more diff
cult task than he bargained for,
made up his mind to fill it. The op-
Grafton was entirely satisfactory,
and the big beast remained perfectly
still during the hammering and stop

On his trips to New York Uncle

says the Cincinnati Commercial Trib-
une, he took a room at the Knick-
er0ocker. After walking up and
down Broadway in the glare of the
white lights for an hour or two the
speaker decided to retire, and walked
INTO the Astor. When the clerk
asked him to register Uncle Joe"
Aonchalantly announced that he had
already registered. A search was
made by those behind the desks,
Dut 1t was unavailing. Firmly the

Biennial Sessions INDICATED.

From the GAINESVILLE News.
The present session of the Georgia
legislature has demonstrated beyond
the shadow of a doubt the wisdom
of the people in demanding biennial
instead of annual sessions. The peo-
pie do not need legislature to play
politics for them.

These Are Just a Few of Manv.
When VIII Sanity Return?

From the Nashville American.
For foolish legislation Georgia's
legislature takes the prize. Some
days ago we insisted that it led all
the states for the BOBBY prize. Since
that article was printed a number
of other unwise and unnecessary
bills have been presented, and with
good chance of being incorporated
in the statutes. When will Georgia
and other states get back to legis-
lative sanity?

Every Ten Years Enough.

From the Covington News.
There is a strong conviction in the
minds of the people that instead of
biennial sessions there should be one
about every ten years. 1t is perfect
~ natural, however, that Georgia has
to have some farce, and we know of
nothing fitting the word more thor
oughly than the Georgia legislature.

From the Savannah News.
Col. Dick Grub of Darien, the
famous Georgia preacher of peace
and loving kindness, says this:
There are men in the Georgia legis-
lature who probably have no other
means of support; and maybe they
are not to blame" Upon whom is
the blame to be placed? Manifestly,
upon their constituents. But we have
to confess to a lack of appreciation
Of the sort of loving kindness that
sends a man to the legislature be-
cause he can't earn bread and salt in
any other manner.

Something of a Farce.

From the Cordele Rambler.
The Legislature of Georgia is GER

quite number of the members are
off attending to private business,
while others are politicking for some
other and better job, and among
them they do nothing but spend the
peoples money.

From the Chattanooga Times.

that women actually wear abbrevi-

workers and students among dependent

gathered yesterday afternoon in the east
room of the White House for the prelimi-
nary meeting to the conference having the
betterment Of such conditions, nationally,
as its aim.
President Roosevelt himself called the
conference to order and outlined in brief
what had been his object in calling the
assemblage and what he would desire to
see accomplished. though he confessed
that the delegates and not he really knew
what should be done. He said:
Ladies and gentlemen: In greeting
you here, wish to say word of special
appreciation of the sacrifice which has
Deen entalled upon you in coming. In
this country much can be done by gov
ornamental work. but the governmental
work will go for nothing unless we con-
tinue to be able to call upon bodies like
this which am addressing to do the dis
interested work which you have done in
coming here. 1t is fine thing for you
to have come; it is fine thing that you
are doing, and I thank you in the name
OF our people as a whole
There can be no more important sub
ject from the standpoint of the nation
than that with which you are to deal be-
cause when you take care of the chill

tomorrow; and it is incumbent upon
every one OF US to do all in his or her
power to provide for the interests of those
children whom cruel misfortune has
handicapped at the outset of their lives
l earnestly hope that the members of this
conference will take progressive stand
so as to establish d goal toward which
the whole country can work. In other
words. l earnestly hope that each of you
will consider not only the interests of his
immediate locality. but the interests of
the nation as a whole

School Board Didn't Consider Business
Last Night.

The board of education met in reg

for brevity, the session was prize
winner. The board made it, from
twill come to order to do now ad-
journ' in Is minutes fiat. The occa-
sion for this abbreviated SESSION was the
music festival at the auditorium,
which the board of education attend
ed in a body. No business was con-
sidered outside of the approval Of the
minutes of the last session, and the
passage of necessary bills accrued dur
ing the month.
A site for the proposed new Wash
ington school house was discussed in
formally while the board was hunting
it's hat. The Washington district has
been waiting in various degrees of pa
thence, for the past five years in hopes
that the Washington school would be
repaired. Instead of repairing the
old building, the board will-some-
time-construct new building. As
the present site is subject to damage
from Shunganunga overflow in food
weather, a site on higher ground will
be considered by the board.

There is a gray-haired woman, little

of a lifetime, spent in her efforts at

registered all the dire and impingfng
visissitudes of the frontier and her
nerves have tabulated it's untold priva-
tions. She has invented comforts out
of the plentitude of nothingness that
surrounded her; she has prayed the fire
out and whispered Amen over its
dead embers; her tears have sweetened
the bitter waters of Marah; she has
fashioned two upholstered chairs out of
one barrel, and the lingerie of the cup

has trudged weary miles with croupy

it's IS or so million bushels of wheat
and 200 million bushels of corn a year
to send to the markets of the world

in supplies of coal. pig iron, steel.

million inhabitants in less than

river to Kansas City you should not
overlook the fact that we have Chi

had been that the government had
spent 500 million dollars on rivers

that it hasn't been much of q benefit
to the people.
'sWhy, do you know that il all of
these states in the Missouri and
Mississippi valleys send the right men
to congress we could do the whole
job in ten years and do it WELL" he
declared. 'I believe the United States
government should spend u billion
dollars in the improvement of the in
land waterways by issuing fifty-year
bonds. The reduced rates in freights
to the people would be worth thirty
or forty times that amount
