Work Day For The
Orphanases OF The South

Work Day for the Orphanages OF
the South is at hand. 1t is now be-
coming the custom of hundreds OF
people in the South to give one days
work earned sometime in September
to some Orphans Home. Every year
new recruits are joining the ever in
creasing army. Let the day be more
nearly universally observed this
year than ever in the history of the
movement. Let the Pastors of the
various churches, Superintendent OF
the Sunday Schools and leaders OF
all the churches talk about it and
write about it until all the people
will know about it. 1t is a move
ment that should interest not one
church but all the churches and not
the members of the churches alone
but every individual with a heart
tender enough to sympathize with
the helpless orphan The homes will
take in the little ones whose parents
never Joined any church as readily
as of those who did. Hence all
should be interested enough to give
I one days work. Your own soul may
1De saved by it as well as that OF
some little one who might otherwise
be turned away.
Sep. oath is the day that most
people will obseve as WORK DAY
and the earnings will be brought in
to the Sunday Schools on the follow
ing day, 25th. But if you can't
observed these days take others
The money will do just as much good
if earned few days earlier or later
The homes that the Sunday
Schools will help are the Thornwell
Orphanage presbyterian } Clinton
S. c., the Baptist Orphanage, Hape-
vile, Ga, two Methodist homes
North Ga, Home at Decatur and
South Ga, Home at Macon, Ga. Then
there are the Georgia Industrial and
the Henhzibah Home in Macon that
are independent. Any of these will
be greatly benefited by the contribu-
tons of Work Day. Let every one
lend helping hand.

A WOMAN DOCTOR

 Doing the Mischief.

A. lady tells of a bad case of coffe poisoning and tells it in way so sim pie and straightforward that literary skill could not improve it.
 T had neuralgia headaches for l2 years" she says, and suffered untold agony. When I first began to have them weighed 14O pounds. but they brought me down to 11O. I went to many doctors and they gave me only temporary relief. So I suffered on. till one day woman doctor told me to use Postum. She said looked like I was coffee poisoned.
 50 I began to drink Postum and 1 gained 15 pounds in the first few weeks and continued to gain, but not so fast as at first. My headaches be- gan to leave me after l had used Postum about two weeks-long enough to get the coffee poison out of my system.
 Since I hegan to use Postum I can gladly say that I never know what q neuralgia headache is like any more and it was nothing but Postum that made me well. Before I used Postum never went out alone; I would get bewildered, and would not know which way to turn. Now I go alone and my head fs as clear as bell.

 The order seems to be in a more flourishing condition just now than it has been in this domain for many years. The membership is growing and the members are taking an inter- est in the work of the order One of the influences that impels a renewed activity is the project for the building of a home for the unfortunates of the order. It was undertaken only year or so ago and a small annual per capita tax is levied to that end Also, in November the chancellor command CT issued a proclamation asking all the lodges to contribute either from their exchequers or from private funds to this cause, and in response there have been liberal contributions the three lodges in this valley having lately given $50 each. There is now about $500 in the fund.

Some hobo. driven to desperation by the unusual cold weather which he did not expect to experience in his winter migration to Arizona, last night stole all the bedclothes, blan- kets. comforts and even the pillow from bed in screen porch at the residence of J. Sherburne Jenkes of 1430 East Jefferson street.
 The theft occurred about 10 o'clock. The thief obtained entrance to the porch by cutting the screen near the door latch. so that he could put his hand through and turn the key.
 Mrs. Jenkes. wffo is a daughter of Judge Kibbey. thought she heard the thief at work. but did not investigate till later. It was then discovered that the bed had been stripped of everything. Several articles of wear ing apparel as well as some valuable blankets were taken. The theft was reported to the police.

A Loss 70 the Nation

Kansas City Times: The nation
probably doesn't know 1t, but one OF
the heavy losses to the senate will be
Senator Kean of New Jersey, whose re-
election Is believed to be made impos
sible by the choice of a democratic
legislature. Senator Kean never made
much of a stir in the public prints. You
never heard of him in fierce debates
But he had one duty to perform. 1t
was almost invariably he who would
rise toward the close of a dreary day
to move that the senate now proceed
to execute a session for the considera-
ton of appointments.
Early in the life Of the present con-
gress some OF the newer members. UNI
familiar with the ways of the senate,
undertook occasionally to make the
motion But they soon learned better.
Their attempts were always treated
with well-merited scorn, and a chorus
Of thunderous mol" greeted their ef-
forts.
Only on the motion of Senator Kean
could the senate 20 into executive ses-
sion. What will II do when he is gone

position to substitute practice for the
DRY. Much has been said of conserva-
ton, of reclamation, of waterway con-
struction, of road building, but COM
pared with the possibilities which
present themselves, little or nothing
has actually been done. This is why
throughout the great stretches of un-
developed country in the west, south
west and northwest, there has been
some grumbling. The time has come
when the cause for this grumbling
should be removed
Takers are wen enough in their
day and in their way, but they have
had their day and their way; and the
need is now for doors. 1t is some
times said that there are no longer
opportunities for development In this
country; that all Of the land is occu-
pied; that the day OF the pioneer the
frontiersman, the settler. the nation
builder, is past. Those who talk in
this vein do not know the country.
The United States Of America is still
in its infancy, and citizens of the
country a hundred years hence win
smile at the conceit OF these DAYS
which holds that everything is finished
or nearly so.

gIOLITlcAL7
MkS AND M17ES

Granville Herald: All the talk
of the campaign just ended
has not turned shovelful of
dirt, planted an acre of ground, wat
cred a garden, set out a tree, built a
foot of waterway, laid a rail, moved
a wheel, given impetus or encourage
ment to development, construction or
enterprise. The tendency of political
campaigning seems largely destruc-
tive. 1t is serious question whether
there was anything really profitable in
the campaign that ended recently AS
rule the things of nearest interest
to the public were forgotten; as rule
the things remembered were only
those of nearest interest to the poli-
tician. The most useful result of it
all, SO far as the ordinary observer
can see, Is that it has provided for
wholesome reaction. People may now
turn gladly to the doing of things that
greatly need to be done. More than
this, having turned their backs upon
the spellbinder, they may demand of
those in public life, for the next two
years or thereabouts, closer attention
to public business.
The country is growing at a tre-
mendous rate. The census figures
show it. With this growth there Is
corresponding increase in government
responsibility. Never in American his
tory has there been greater need OF
wise and honest administration of
public affairs than exist today. Never
was there greater need of public men
capable of taking comprehensive
grasp of the nation and the national
needs. The country has been passing
through period of industrial, social
and political unrest. The agitator has
had the floor. On the whole the ex-
perience has been beneficial Re-
Gently, however, there have been on
all sides striking evidences of a dis

the production Of eggs from nine doz-
en- to seventeen dozen per capita. The
exact figures on the output of milk
are not aYailable--but the increase
was even more marked than that
shown by eggs.
The rise of the dairy COW to prom
inence is easily explained. 1t is due
to the increase OF the wide area of
land in the west where beef cattle
were the chief products. There is no
longer a fortune in grazing steers for
slaughter, but there Is steady and
widening market for milk.
The hog industry is in the same
category there is still a large
opportunity for growth in that indus
try.
The facts here cited go to prove that
the people are rapidly becoming a ma
ton of egg and milk eaters. The con-
clusion forced upon the thoughtful
reader is-that the men who put these
things on the market have strange
hold on fortune.
