Diversions Of Earlier Georgia.

Micajah Williamson kept licensed
tavern in the town Of Washington. In
front of this tavern was large picture
Of George Washington hanging as a
swinging sign. John Clarke governor
1929 used to come to town and.
like most men Of his day, get drunk.
They all did not ''cut up" however. as
he did on such occasions. He went
into stores and smashed things gener-
ally, as tradition says, but he always
came back and paid for them like a
gentleman. Once he came into town
intoxicated and galloped down Court
street and fred through the picture OF
General Washington before the tavern
door This was brought up against
him later when he was candidate for
governor, but his friends denied it.

Bees Double Stomach.

The bee has two distinct stomachs.
In the first it stores away the honey it
so industriously gathers up from the
flowers until such time as it is ready
to yield it up. while the other stomach
is used simply and solely for digestion
purposes. Thus the food and the honey
are never mixed When the bee re-
turns to the hive and is ready to de-
posit the honey it has gathered it
by which act the honey Is elected
through the mouth. AS to bee food. it
is various in kind. consisting largely
Of the honey it so patiently makes for
others.

LOCKING For Them,

Major d'Arandes. like many another
French soldier. was tired Of waiting
for promotion and opportunities to dis
tinguish himself. He seized an oppor-
tunity to enjoy little excitement and
at the same time remind Louis XVI.
of his baffied ambitions. He made
balloon ascension which at that time
was thought to be a very risky affair.
The king promptly reproved him for
his rashneSS.

For the first time income from internal

What NOTHING Is.

If any man thinks that he can con-
ceive well enough how there should be
nothing. will engage that what he
means by nothing is as much some
thing as anything that he ever thought
of in his life. and believe that If be
knew what nothing was it would be
intuitively evident to him that it could
not be. Absolute nothing is the ag-
gregate Of all the contradictions in the
world.-Jonathan Edwards.
