So, in the battle of life u man may
be scholar and gentleman, a model
of highmindness and Christian philan-
thropy and still have some moral
Achilles heel, some weakness of the
flesh that he cannot conquer which will
bring him in the end, despite all his
virtues, to destruction and ruin.
Two young negroes appeared in the
prize ring during the closing years of
the last century. One was gigantic,
symmetrical, powerful, a PERFECTLY
craven statue in black marble. The other
was large of frame, but skinny and
ill-fed looking. One was man of des-
Perate, unAinching courage, black ber-
serker, Zulu warrior drunk ON huJua;
the other was said to have yellow
streak" Both were literally lowered
with the instructive animal fighting
cunning of the black man, and both
had a share of the white mans ring
wisdom as well. One was hailed as a
coming ring champion, the other was
expected to develop into a pretty fair
second-rater. The first was Denver Ed
Martin, the second Jack johnson.
On the coast they thought Martin
was a wonder. Though only boy
in years, he cut a swath through the

Cotton for French Mills

Atlanta, Ca, Oct. 8=Geor-
gians have heard with interest
that shipments of cotton abroad
are being resumed and hope that
it will have an early effect on the

Hall Million for Wall Street

Atlanta, Ca, Oct. 8.-Banks
of the Atlanta Clearing House
association will contribute half a
million in gold to the one hun
dred million dollar fund which a
New York committee is raising
to maintain the credit of the
United States. 1t will be taken
to Ottawa, Canada, and there
placed to the credit of the bank
of England, and American banks
will then draw drafts against
this to meet European obliga-
tons.
Not more than one-fourth the
amount offered will be called for
at once. Atlantans are rather
surprised to learn that there is
really half million in gold in
Atlanta. A hold-up man who
could stop the train carrying it
out would be we'll fixed for life
but it would require an auto

Now is a good time to begin

always acceptable as gifts, and
very pretty ones are made by
rolling the hens of squares cut
from handkerchief linen then
whipping the hem with color
ed thread of D. M. C. cotton.
After going around once, whip"
in the opposite direction; this
makes a sort of cross-stitch edge,
which is durable and pretty. The
initials may be worked in colors
to match in one corner. EN-
broidered initials are lovely.
Lavender, light and dark blue,
pink, old rose, pale and dark
green, tan, yellow, brown and
black are the colors most taste
fully used.
Hand-worked aprons are an
appropriate small gift to a friend
too.

The market was weak today, ana

TRADED IN RARE BUGS

Topeka, Kan-Kansas has the sec ond largest chronological collection In the world. Kansas obtained this by cor rering the bug market one year and it made the bug collectors "come through
 Chancellor Snow, for many years the head of the University of Kansas. found a little bug in the far western part of Kansas. of which there were but two known specimens in existence
 Chancellor Snow gathered up five gallons, about 5000 bugs. and announced to the bug collectors of the world that he had some "tradin' stock
 The chancellor dickered and traded ties, the rarest in the world, Kansas owned the finest chronological collec- tion in America, and second only to the British Museum. It is worth S500,000.
 When he collected the five gallons of beetles there was one of the beetles at Harvard and another in the British Museum, the only two specimens of the beetle known, and collectors from all parts of the world burned up money
 
 s25 to obtain one of the Kansas beetles or agreeing to trade that much worth of bugs for one of the Kansas speci- mems
 This beetle, Amblichyla for short, lives in holes in the ground. Being blind and unable to fly, 1t could not obtain it food in the ordinary beetle fashion. When the beetle built itself a home by burrowing into the ground it built also a little trapdoor over the entrance with grass. It is said that the weight of a gnat would spring the trap. A fly or other insect that chanced to cross the door dropped down into the waiting pincers of the blind beetle just below the door
 The beetles are an inch long and have a hard, black shell over the back.
