Eaitnr of The Age-Herald ::

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 Among the many charitable cases the county has there is none more deserv- ing than little Johnnie Huskey, who has made his home at the Almshouse for four years, having gone there from the St. Vincents hospital.
 Johnnie is a poor, unfortunate cripple The county physician says he will never be able to walk without his crutches; he Is an orphan boy 16 years old, his mother having lost her mind when Johnnie was 6 little child and his father is dead. But with all Johnnies afflictions he is ann bilious to be independent. He is In the fifth grade; his reports are good, and he Is a. bright boy as well as energetic goes to school during the week and tries to earn money by running a bootblack stand Saturdays and Sundays in Woodlawn' on Fifty-ffth street near the postoffioe.
 This unfortunate boy is saving every penny to pay for commercial course. Ii the readers could see him, very fraii boy. making a great effort to be inde- pendent and make something out of him self. I am sure they would feel as we do that he deserves a liberal patronage and every aid possible to get his education.

The Victim of Drink
Needs Orrine Treatment-Cure Ef
 fected or Money Refunded.

Drink first destroys ambition; breaks up ties of friendship; it kills and buries love and eventually destroys the family life.
 Some of the best men in the world have been victims of drink and If thero is not some member in your family that Is afflicted with this disease you are indeed fortunate.
 Drink cunntngly destroys the will power. and while the drunkard wants to do what you tell him, he wants thousand times more the drink that he craves Medical treatment is necessary ta destroy the cravings, and this Or rine will do.
 It destroys the desire for liquor, so that the drink will not be missed, also cures the deranged digestion, weakened nerves and other i'll effects of excessive drinking. restoring the patient to per feet health.
 The remedy is absolutely harmless, is thoroughly scientific and is so uniform ly successful that it is sold with a registered guarantee entitling you to a refund of your money if Orrine fails to effect a cure. Booklet on How to quest in plain sealed wrapper. The Orrine Co, Washington. D. C.
 Orrine is in two forms, No. which can be given secretly without the pa tient's Knowledge, No. 2 in pill form for those who wish to be cured. Tho price of either is s1, mailed on re- cept of price in plain sealed package, and both are sold under the guarantee. Orrine is sold by Jacobs Pharmacy in Birmingham. and by Fulton Bros. in RAaAnuaAx.

Hard on Drink Makers.

Efforts at amendment of the pure food and drugs act promise to be somewhat numerous at the approaching session of the general assembly.
 A prominent member of the house who thinks that disclosure of his name at this time would result in numerous protests against his purpose, says he is going to introduce a bill and push 1t for all it Is worth to require the producer of every substance sold as drink in the state to furnish the formula of it upon demand.
 It is easy to see what a rumpus such a proposal as this is likely to stir up. There are plenty of manufacturers of articles sold as drinks or medicine, who have proprietary and property rights in their formulas. To enact a law requir- ing them to make these formulas public, to certain extent, would be regarded as confiscation.
 1t is not the intention of the author O. the proposal to require outright the pL,- lication of such formulas, but simply to require that it be furnished upon demand as a condition upon which the manufac- turer may sell his product in the state. In other words, the law proposes to re- quire that if he don't want to tell what Is in his drink or medicine, he can't sell it in Georgia.
 That there is a well developed purpose to push such a proposition in the legis- lature this summer there Is no question. Likewise it cannot be doubted that 1t will bring a storm of protest from man ufacterers of soda fountain syrups, proprietary medicines and other articles affected.
 Speaking of the pure food law, every now and then it brings to light some un- usual incident. B. A. Brown of Sylvester, Ga, wrote the department of agriculture the other day that he had bought five bushels of seed oats and planted them. He says he now has a splendid crop of grass and barley, but scarcely an oat in the patch. The department replied to him that all he had to do was to produce ev idence that the seed oats were sold to him improperly branded and a case would he made against the party from whom they were bought. The pure food law permits the shipment into the state and sale of mixed grains, but demands that they shall be properly branded, in default of which the dealer is liable to prosecution in the state or United States courts, as the case may be.

Manv Want Rarrett,s PIaee.

Announcement that President Charles s. Barrett of the National Farmers union would retire at the end of his pres ent term, next September. has brought to the front number of candidates for succession at the head of this extensive agricultural organization.
 Among those most prominently mem tioned are President D. J. Neill of the Texas union, President ". A. Morris of the Alabama union and T. W. Loudermilk of Texas, a member of the national execu- tive committee.
 While they have said little on the sub ject 1t is generally believed that the Geor gia element Is anxious to recognize the claims of Texas. and is likely to support President Neill. His claims seem to have been more generally recognized than those of any others so far mentioned.
 It is said an effort will be made to in- duce President Barret to accept re-elec ton. It is known, however, that he Is determined in the position he has taken and will not again accept the office, He has just completed history of the Farm CTS union and for time at least will oc cupy himself with it's distribution.

the threshold of the new general as sembly to get fingers upon it.
 In the first place the new legisla ture is going to have to solve the problem of meeting a prospective deficit In tho state treasury.
 Governor Smith stated some time ago that he would have plenty of money to run things up to July l, this year, but he has not hesitated to say that after that time his successor would have a struggle in making both ends meet. He attributed this largely to the change in the law insisted upon by the last state convention and enacted by the legislature. making the payment of pensions in annual lump sum instead of quarterly.
 If the governor elect is giving him self any special concern about the mat ter he does not say so, but some of his friends are charging that Governor Smith is trying to get rid of all the money possible before his term eX pires, so that his successor may be left with as flat a treasury as can be de- vised in accordance with law.
 They call attention to the governors s earnest desire to buy state farm and to his recent direction to the state treas urer to .pay out to the counties which had been accustomed to receive it the pro ceeds of convict hire for the first quarter of 1909, and which 1t was presumed the prison commission would use for the ex penses of the penitentiary department.
 Treasurer Park has declined to comply with the governors wishes in this mat ter until 1t has been definitely determined what the prison commission will need for expenses, and until the attorney general rules whether it should be paid out of this fund or from the near-beer tax.
 It is not unlikely that both this prob lem and disposition of the near-beer tax will remain to be settled by the legisla- ture which meets the fourth Wednesday in June.
 And the indications are now that the new legislature will not take to the state farm proposition. There has been no ob- jection raised in any quarter to the work ing of the white conviots on the county roads under the arrangement which sepa- rates them from the negroes, and as long this plan is working smoothly and the state has numerous needs in other di- rections, it is not likely the near-beer tax will be invested in a farm.
 Besides, the view will be taken that. should it become necessary to buy farm, the near-beer tax will continue to yield the state so much income, and the pur- chase can be made later on when the necessity becomes more apparent.

Primary on Commission Plan.

It is now planned to call a primary election to be held between now and the time of meeting of the general assembly in June, to give the people of Atlanta the opportunity to vote on the future form of municipal governmeD. which this city shall have.
 By the middle of next week the general committee on charter revision will have in hand reports from two sub-committees, each outlining a different plan of govern ment.
 One of these will provide for the com mission plan somewhat on the order of that now in vogue in Galveston. Tex. This report which has been completed, pro- vides for a mayor and seven councilmen. one at the head of each of seven city de- partments. the mayor to have general supervision over the entire city govern ment. The salary of the mayor is fixed at s3G00 and that of the councllmen at 5000 each, and they are to give all their time to the city The only board pro- vided for under tn.s plan Is that in charge of education whose members are to be elected by the people just as the councilmen.
 The other plan proposed will be along the general lines of the present oity gov ernment with ward councilmen and var fn the numbers both in council and on the boards
 This latter report will be ready for the general committee early next week when a meeting will be held and both measures considered.
 While no definite decision has been reached with regard to submitting these plans to a vote of the people, sentiment In that direction Is so strong that there is little question such a course will be pursued.
 Then the legislature will be asked to

 All proudly donned the gray; For what they were and what they did
 We honor them today. Perhaps 'tis youth that lies herein,
 Perchance one with battle scars Both fought to conquer and to win With valor for the Stars and Bars In rank and file. led on by Lee,
 Der many q ridge and plain, They fought for our Confectionery
 Where the bullets flew like rain. On sea as well as on the land,
 Where Stars and Bars were flying, No nobler crews did ever stand,
 When their foes they were defying. Year after year they slower move
 Brave soldiers and gallant tars; Each day some are called above,
 That fought for the Stars and Bars And while upon your grave we place
 Choicest flowers of our cline; Child of the "Southland'' rest in peace Loved and honored for all time
