Ellsworth People Have Abso-

It's not words but deeds that prove true

The deeds Of Doan's Kidney Pills,

Proof lies in the testimony OF Ellsworth

THE CRAWFORD w. LONG MON
UMENT.

It is particularly fitting that
monument be erected by the medical
profession of Georgia to one Of her
most distinguished citizens, Crawford
w. Long, the discoverer of ether an
esthesia.
With this purpose in view the Ath-
ems Woman's Club has undertaken
the collection Of funds for the cree
ton Of this memorial and it is earn
estly desired that every physician in
the State make prompt contribution
and thereby assist In honoring no
table member of the profession-the
discoverer of one of the most useful
Of anesthetics.
It is a sad commentary and re-
fection upon Georgia that DR.. Long
should have received greater honors in
other coun42ies than he has in his own
State. A prompt contribution and
hearty cooperation Of the physicians
of this State will enable the Woman s
Club to erect a monument in Athens,
the home of this distinguished citizen,
and thus in a measure may we neu-
tralize our past neglect and delin-
quency. The United States has hon.
ored the name Of DR.. Long by award
ing him place in the Hall Of Fame
in Washington, D. c., but the niche is
yet unflled.-Atlanta Journal-Record
of Medicine.
1t is peculiarly fitting that Georgia
should erect a monument to her SON

human race. The South has right to
be proud of the memory of such
man. The achievements Of some of

The daring Ephraim Mcdowell, Of
Kentucky, who in 1909 performed the
first laporotomy on a poor woman IN

the chapter of great things achieved
contains the wonderful discovery of

Viewing it from this standpoint it
would seem to be rather an injustice
not to require those who do not fur
nish the children to stand all the
expense Of educating them. Surely
the parent has done his share to-
wards keeping up the community
when he has reared the child to man
hood or womanhood, and then to re-
quire him to give it the further edu-
cational equipment to make the child
more useful and valuable citizen
would seem to be rather doubling the
load on the parent.
IF the above views were taken gen.
orally of the matter, and they are
certainly sound, movements to better
the educational advantages in COM
munity would not be met by as much
opposition as now.-Oglethorpe Echo.

REELFoOT LAKE.

The pending bill in the general as
sembly to make Reelfoot Lake state
game and fish preserve is measure
which greatly concerns large section
Of West Tennessee and is also OF in
terest to the whole state. Aside from
the general proposition of the desir-
ability of having SO large body Of
water declared public preserve and
placed under proper regulations in re-
gard to it's use and for the protection
of it's game and fish, there is the fur
Their purpose involved of relieving q
very tense and dangerous condition in
the region adjacent to the lake which
has grown out Of the assumption of
private control of the lake and its fish
ing and hunting privileges, control
which has gone counter to long estab
hshed customs and traditions, and
which has resulted in Night Rider dis
turbances and crimes that have so re-
Gently shocked the commonwealth and
brought reproaeh upon the state. 1t is
the belief of the advocates Of the bill
that by making the lake state pre-
serve the good will Of thousands of
people Immediately affected will be re-
stored and conditions of peace and
harmony in the lake region will be re-
established. The matter is one for
serious consideration, with a due re-
gard for individual rights, yet with
the main idea of benefting the state
and Of conserving the interests and
welfare Of the greatest number of peo-
pie. The plan proposed seems practic-
able and, at least, should be given
careful attention with the view Of
solving a very serious problem which
affects the whole state Nashville

ABOUT SCHOOL TAX.

1t is quite natural for those who
have no children to educate to hold,
whenever the matter Of taxation for
schools is being considered, that it
is not just to tax them for the pur-
pose; that it is the duty Of parents
to educate their own children. That
this duty rests solely upon the par
ent has so long been accepted as
true does not make it so.
Children are not educated for the
benefit Of the parent alone, but for
that of the community at large.
When the parent stands the expense
of educating his child the only ben
eft he derives therefrom more than
any other citizen of the community
is the consolation that he has done
his part by his child and fitted him
to better fight the battle Of life.
Theoretically, every other citizen of
the community derives as much ma
terial benefit from the child becom-
ing an educated citizen Of the COM
munity as does the parent.
This being true, and it can not be
denied, is it not the duty of all citi-
zens to contribute toward the edu-
cation Of the coming generations? Is
it not a duty they owe themselves
directly, if not to society? And
should not every citizen be required
to perform this duty?
In point Of fact, raising children
is a patriotic act. AS rule, the
parent derives barely more benefits
from having borne and sustained
and nurtured the child until it has
become a useful citizen than does
any other citizen of the community
in which that child resides. IF the
parent has stood the work and wor-
ry and expense Of producing thai
citizen in his crude form, SO tC
speak, certainly it is not demanding
too much Of the citizen who does
not contribute this worry and ex
pense to the building up and benefit
of the community, to require him tt
at least aid in adding the additional
equipment Of an education that the
child may be better and more use
full citizen, and therefore more profit
able citizen in the community.

rs THIS TRAGEDY OR FARCE?

er T. Washington was telling his white

sions Of Lincoln s when as pickanin-
ny on a Virginia plantation his moth
er knelt over him and prayed for the
success of the Northern armies, GU
rious burlesque was being carried out
in a Flatbush church in the vicinity.
An auctioneer named O'Loughlin
was offering for sale on the block for
ty "white slaves" whose faces were
covered with masks, men who said
they were more than willing would
gladly barter their freedom for en-
ployment to obtain the means for a
mere physical existence
When the constitutional objection
was raised to the proceedings the po-
lice who were defiled to preside over
the performance<End keep the crowd
of curious people in order, declared
that the "club was mightier than the
Constitution and the farce or trag-
edy-as the case may be-proceeded
as far as bona fide bidders could be
found for the men.
O'Loughlin, the auctioneer, explain
ed that some time ago he advertised
for man out of work who would sell
himself for food, shelter and clothing.
That man got job, but 300 others
came along at once ready to do the
same thing, and then he decided to
advertise for church in which to
conduct the sale.
"Bring up the slaves, captain"
OLoughlin then shouted, according
to the New York Sun 5 report of the
scene, which says ''you could hear
the audience in the audience catch it's
breath. The organ, played by boy,
struck up John Brown s Body and
there filed into the church from the
rear door little procession Of men,
some old, some young, some walking
erect and some stumbling. On each
was tag with number and through
the holes in the black masks could be
seen some eyes that gazed unsteadily
at the gaping crowd and some that
were filed with tears.'
Continuing, the Suns report says:
"The men were put up then one by
one. No 10 came first. Mr.. O'Lough-
lin described him, auctioneer fashion,
as young man willing to work or be
driven, and invited any one to come
up and feel him. One man, rather
shamefacedly, did so.
How much am [ bid for this
man?' said Mr. OLoughlin.
"H C. Will, baker of Coney Is
land, jumped up and offered $40, and
led him out. He also offered to give
three loaves Of bread day besides,
and the building shook with cheers.

masks, drew the wearer gently aside,
and talked to him, ana then it was an

Arsenate of Lead for Beetles.
The use of arsenate Of lead in

One and one-half pounds contains as
much arsenic as eight ounces of
Paris green and will cost no more.
1t has the advantage of not injuring
the foliage and it, Is also very adj
hesive, so that it is less likely to
wash off and fewer applications will
be necessary.
While the above amount will ans
wer for SO gallons of water, or Bor-

larvas appear, it will be better to use
two or three pounds if they are very
numerous and nearly grown. When

costs 10 to II cents per pound.
