some time or other. When Roman !. emperor died, his successor (unless he was very friendly to deceased) had his statues mutilated or destroyed and had all inscriptions cut off that were lauda- tory to the late emperor. l have seen great many of those effaced inscrip- tions. One that saw in the forum in- terested me. It was at the temple of Vesta, where there are number of statues of head vestals with inscrip. tions. One who had become christian was buried alive. Her statue is there with Inscription giving dates of her taking charge of temple and of her death, but the name has been carefully chiseled off. Notre Dame is very old and outwardly imposing, but the inside is dreary waste--made so during the revolution. Westminster Abbey runs to the other extreme. Tombs, monu. ments and statues crowd one another and you wish that about one.third of them could be taken out. Yet they are packing more in every year. l remem- Der in the old street cars in New York the seats would first be taken, then one by one would occupy standing room. When the new passengers tried to get on the conductor called out, "Move up, move up," but the time came when the car was packed so full that they could not move up. 1 would consider that Westminster Abbey was in that condi:. tion now.
 There is a splendid lot of stained windows in Cologne Cathedral, all of them being gifts and some of them be- ing over thousand years old. They are not easy to clean and have always to be sent to the factory, where the dust is burned off. A window is not cleaned more often than once in two or three hundred years. The stone pillars are wonder. They run clear up to the roof, distance of two hundred feet, and when you look up at those almost endless columns you think it is the highest roof you ever saw. Before l begin on the chapels l am going to branch off little.

A doctor in San Antonio, Texas, has discovered cure for drunkenness. It consists in taking loop in the jejunum a part of the intestines) and making artificial openings in the jejunum near the knot, connecting the openings and later cutting out the knot. We have had an idea for some time that drunk enness could be cured by some such process but we had some delicaey in mentioning it. Now, however, that the Texas doctor has come out with our idea in better language than we could have expressed it ourselves, we trust our leading drunkards will lose no time in having their jejunums knotted. Something must be done to overcome the Demon Run.-EX.

DR.. John Stanley.

We feel that our loss is in truth Ma
cons gain when Dr. John Stanley leaves
us end locates in Macon. Few doctors,
young or old, are better eqnipped fol
the profession.
He studied two years at the Balti-
more Medical College making a most
creditable record. Then he took three
years at the Louisville Medical College,
Louisville, KY, graduating with hon
ors. After practicing for four years he
took a post graduate course at the
Army and Navy College, Washington,
D. G. There were physicians from
every state in the union, some were
men of mature years. Out of this class
of lat DR.. Stanley was the only one
to get his diploma "and is competent. :"
AS we all know Uncle Sam doesn't pass
around roses SO we fell justly proud of
DR.. Stanley and while we grieve to give
him up, yet we want him to have the
practice he deserves and rise to the
highest rank in medical science. In all
he has practlced in our town six years
and we know him to be q gentleman as
well as a splendid physician. B.

Coburns Minstrels.

The Coburn Ministrels gave first
class entertainment in the Macon Opra
House Wednesday evening. 1t was alb
solutely free from anything off color
and incidentally it may be remarked
that the members of the company i'm
pressed the audience as being gentle
men, having been given, unfortunately,
provocation to demonstrate other quail
ties during the performance.
The singing was splendid. some very
fine voices being possessed by the
troupe. The numbers of Justen Nc
Carthy, not the author of History of
Our Own Times" Dick Teitge, Lester
Lucas and Leslie Barry giving special
pleasure. Charley Gano's part was
probably the best received of all. His
talent is of the first order. The Mar
ionette show was remarkable.
Macon is hardly large enough to lead
one no expect to attract SO large COM
pany and one of so much merit. But
every seat was filed, many people from
Broeksville and the country around
Macon coming in, and the Ministries had
a house they deserved.

Rev. R. H. B. Gladney, who for the
last two years has been pastor of the
Methodist Church in Macon, has been
transferred to Sardis. The good wishes
of large number of Macon people fol-
,ow him to his new charge.
Mr.. Gladney is a strong, logical and
earnest preacher. He is man of deep
plety and a strict diciplinarian, un-
compromising in his opposition to that
he believes wrong, yet kind and charit-
able in his judgment of his fellow men.
He is courageous and outspoken, and
made himself and his influence felt in
Macon.
Sardis is fortunate to secure him to
its church.

MCMILLAN.

Mcmillan, Okla, Jan. 30.-We are
having some fine weather for tne
month of January, it seems almost
like spring had already come, but We
are needing some rain before We can
make another crop We have a good
season in the ground now to plow, but
the ground underneath is very dry.
One day last week our gin man, j.
Robinson, came very near losing
his life by his team running away
with him in the wagon. He went TO
haul a barrel of water from a spring
in the yellow hills, when the team
began to run down the toughest and
steepest place in the hills and threw
him out in front. The supposition is
that the mules kicked him, his teeth
were all knocked out on one side of
his jaw and in front. The doctors
had to cut out five teeth, but think
they can save the balance. His head
was badly cut and bruised.
Cleve and Sam Gardner and wives
of Lone Grove were down visiting
J. f. Sexan and family Sunday.
Our school is progressing nicely.
We all like our teacher, Miss Major,
very much.

the virgin forest. He was about to
strike the trail which led to Eawn
Lake, when a fierce gust of wind
brought to his ear the yelping bark
of a dog.
Sol stopped to listen and his brow
furrowed in doubt, for the yelping
barks were evidently those of an
animal in distress. He threw his
rifle into the crook of his arm and
worked his way through the scrub
up-wind in the direction of the
sounds. Presently he came to the
edge of an open space not far from
the beach, and as he peered across
it his eyes lighteneo and his head
dropped forward with the motion
peculiar to the wolf, The panther,
and the woodsman.
Lying face downward on the snow
was the body of man which Sol
recognized at a glance as that of
his arch enemy, Blake, Beneath his
head there was bloody smear
upon the snow. A small English
setter was running about him, and
as Sol stood watching, the dog nosed
his masters face, and then raised
his head and gave a series of yelr'
ing barks.
Sol threw stealthy look about
him, then sank back into the thick
ct.

set teeth. "Cuss mo If ! didn't do

His deep-set eyes We're lit with a
glow almost of admiration as they
searched the outline Of the prone
figure. They softened as they rest

His forehead wrinkle1 with per-

His errand mad been to slay the
man lying face downward In the
snow; apparently some other had
paid his score in ,nll- and sudden
| ly, his rancor of hate gave way 10
flood of compassion for the dead
mans dog!
Sol stepped from the bushes and
whistled, and at the sound the dog
pricked up his ears. then bounded
toward him, yelping with joy. MID
! way he turned, and running TO his
master, licked his neck.
Something in the acS moved the
wOodsman strongly; his emotions
while deep were those OF a child;
his nature was stirred as deeply FOR
good as for evil.
Here, boy he called, here, come
here!"
The dog whined pitifully but re-
fused to stir from the body of IT'S
master.
"Praps they was some good in the
critter after ALL" muttered Sol
"Praps, with all his meanness. he
might ha' been a good master to that
there bird-dog."
He whistled coaxingIy.
Something brought his eyes in a
flash from the dog to the body of
the master He looked keenly, and
as he watched with staring eyes,
Blake stirred, turned slowly on his
side. and his pale, blood-smeared
face looked for an instant at Sol,
standing not twenty feet distant.
You. Wittemore!" he moaned.
Thank Cod"
His head fell back upon the snow.
Sol gasped for breath; the fierce
no'wester driving full in his face
failed TO furnish his lungs with am
pie air. The blood was sucked from
his weather-beaten face, leaving it
sickly yellow against the snow.
"Hev l got to finish it after all?"
he muttered Whoever done it-why
couldn't he ha' made a clean job of
ito"
For an instant he stood like a
stone. Half way between him and
the PROSTATE man sat the dog, his
soft brown eyes fixed anxiously on

Of hn I naF 1aron n

ternoon at the residence of Mrs. f.
f. Guillot.
The occasion was the annual musi
Gale of the club with Mesdames
Harold Wallace, Max Westheimer, Z.
f. Guillot and p. C. Dings as host
esses.
The Guillot home had been dec
grated in white and green, the club
co!ors, carried out most effectively
in ferns and crepe paper.
On the program appeared some OF
Ardmores best musical talent in Sc
lections that met with the heart
lest appreciation.
Mrs. McClintock played the ac-
compartments for the greater mum.
Der of the selections and by her
happy adaptability to the voices con-
tributed no little amount to the en-
joyment of the afternoon, Mrs. Nc
Clintock reads her music with the
understanding of an artist and a
student, and none of the melody in
it escapes her.
Mrs. Guillot and Mrs. Cecil vii.
liams in a vocal duet, were the
first on the program.
Mrs. Williams sang two very
beautiful selections following the
duet, which were heard with the
greatest pleasure and appreciation.
Mrs. Tietgens played an exqui-
site violin selection.
Mrs. Guillots voice selections We're
wonderfully sweet. One of the chief
est charms of Mrs. Guillot's songs
is her perfect enunciation. Her sec.
I'd selection, an operate one, was
perfectly adapted to her voice and
nothing sweeter has been sung this
winter.
Mrs. Westheimer sang very beau
tifully, Beloved, it Is Morn and in
response to the storm of applause
sang a very charming little encore,
which was very lovely as far as it
went-but it didn't go far enough
Miss Boone gave a classical read

talents were most agreeably dis
played
1t seems that all the good fairies
were present at Miss Boone's chris
tening, with never a jealous one,
for she has been endowed with
many talents, any one of which
would satisfy most women.
This reading which, in a person
of lesser power, would have been
tiresome, was a most delightful treat
Later in the afternoon Miss Boone
sang "Schubert's Serenade." Miss

lovely as the voice.
