A FAITHFUL OLD FRIEND. WHO
is NOT LONESOME. NOW

Dear Sir: How proud 1 am. I
used to be very lonesome. They used
to strike me on every jury case,
nearly Now they come to me and
praise you. love honest people. I
tell them I used to think I had an
honest father and mother; that is
why like you. I don't think honest
people hurt anybody, much. Well,
am getting old. I have fought your
battles for thirty years, and [ am
proud Of it [ wish I could come to
see you and shake your hand once
more. May you live to see a better
Government. You have sown the
seed, but some one else will get the
crown. May the great God bless you
and your dear family. Now, if I live
until this fall and you, too, and I am
able, | am coming. Your true friend
forever. w. A. ELLINGTON.

BEWARE OF THESE ROMANTST
COLONIES:

Dear Sir: No doubt you remember
the scrap you had in the spring of
1913 with the Augusta K. of C.'s-
V. G. Dorr, P. J. Rice, E. J. Gallaher,
Thos. S. Gray, Frank E. Petit, J. L.
Armstrong, J. P. Mulherin, Frank x.
DOrr, J. J. Farrell and others. These
names I get from The Jeff issue Of
March 27, 1913, in an article copied
from the Augusta Chronicle of Aug.
20, 1912. The name which most con-
Germs us is J. J Farrell, who is Sec
rotary Of the Board of Trade of Balm
bridge. He has worked himself into
the good graces of the people of
Bainbridge and Decatur county. No
one seems to realize in this suave and
affable appearing gentleman so dang
erOus man as he can be in bringing
emigrants to the county which he is,
in his duties, supposed to do. You
can readily see the kin he will bring.
We want good people to come into
the county, but we do not want the
scum of Europe. / understand he adj
vocates a colony of BeIgians, and
feel SUR there will be no Protestants
among them.
If you will publish this a con-
densed form will be sufficient to
warn the people of Bail. bridge to sit

a TRUE GEORGIA WOMAN EN-.
COURAGES THE JEFFER-
SONTAN

Dear Sir: I love Justice, love
bravery; most of all I love those
noble principles back of the motive
which prompted you to so courage
ously defend innocent little Mary
Phagan. l think it is due you for all
your readers to write you a word of
approval, especially every Georgia
mother who has daughters, for the
magnificent way in which you have
defended their daughters by showing
up Leo Frank. I don't think I have
missed single word you have writ
ten in The Jeffersonian. You have
made it so plain that, as the first ma
Jor prophet said, "A wayfaring man,
though fool, need not err therein"
Without money, without price; that
must be fOretest Of the love of
justice divine; that must be what our
dear Lord meant when He said "Of
such is the kingdom of Heaven"
When [ read those facts my English
blood gets to a white heat. To think
the poor little unsuspecting, unpro-
tected innocent child dropped into
the web the cunning satanic spider
had woven for her! No doubt Leo
Frank bedecks himself in diamonds,
no doubt that rich connection of his
does the same. But little Mary
Phagan had a diamond, a jewel far
more precious than all their diam
Onds combined, far more valuable;
the one she fought for, the one she
bled for the one that cIassed her
with the white-rObed angel sleepers.
But [ think, ere this, God has whis-
pered in that little bruised blood, be-
spattered ear of hers, 'All is we'll,
vengeance is mine; | will repay
I am not in favor of capital punish
ment; God did not punish Cain, the
first murderer, but he inflicted a pun
1shment. [ think Leo Frank should
be put in a reformatOry with walls
so strong and high that all the de-
mons, great and small, of all shades,
could not scale, and there made to
work for the remainder of his life
for poor, silent Mrs. Phagan and 9TH
ers held dear by little Mary. Be-
sides, those that have been spending
money so freely to defeat justice, and
has shown SO much sympathy for the
black spider with the red spot on his
back, the kind that makes us tremble
for week after we have run upon
him, who spun the web that en-
trapped innocence, should be put in
there and made to help quite little.
1t would teach an object lesson that
the world needs to know.
| feel sure our indulgent fathers
will pardon me if [ write Aaron's
benediction to read thus: MAY the
Lord bless you and keep you. May
the Lord make His face to shine upon
you, and be gracious unto you. May
the Lord lift up His countenance
upon you and protect you from all
that may threaten your useful life!"
Best wishes 10 those you love best.

Scientific experiments have de- monstrated that, contrary to the general belief, the yellow color of cream and butter is not necessarily an indication of their richness. It was discovered long'ago that most vegetable matter contains yellow substance called carotin," because it exists abundantly in carrots. It is this substance contained in the cows feed that gives rise to the color of milk and butter. Carotin is most abundant in the green for age available in spring and summer so that milk and butter produced then are more yellow than in the winter, although the percentage of fat in winter milk often is actually higher than in the rich-looking product obtained in summer.

From England to Russia.

Intercourse between Russia and England began in the middle of the sixteenth century by the one route that is still open, via the White sea. It was a hazardous and costly voyage, the London Chronicle observes. The crews of two of the three ships with which Richard Chancellor made his first trip in 1858 were frozen to death, Sir Hugh Willoughby among them. On his 'second venture, in 1856, Chancellor brought back with him a Russian ambassador, Osip Ne jea. Two of the ships were never heard of again, and the Edward Bona ventura, after four months at sea, was wrecked on the Scottish coast. Chancellor, many of the crew and seven Russians perished, but Osip Nejar was among the survivors, and the English lords and merchants went out in state beyond Shoreditch to wei come this duke of Muscovia."

CONSCIOUS GOODNESS.

When we become conscious that what we do or say is we'll done, or well said or good, we begin to go back. Self-criticism is good. Self enthusiasm is weakness. A bad little boy is one whose self esteem teaches him that he is smarter than his playmates, and he tries to show off. Habtual criminahty is egotism-a distorted view of the criminals cleveness. If God could realize his perfection, He would not be God. He would be imper- feet. Many reformers are reform CTS through their conscious good ness. Admitting their own correct lives, they would force others by law to live as they do. No artist is truly great who is satisfied with his work. No woman is beautiful who is conscious of her beauty. Heaven would not be heaven if the saints and angels realized the de- grees of their goodness. Conscious goodness is the beginning of an evil end. It worships itself at the front of the temple. It is the eclipse over the sun of growth.

Simple Remedy.

A simple but effeacious steam rem edy for cold in the head and hoarse ness is to inhale steam from sponge dipped in boiling water. Cover the sponge With boiling water, wrap. a towel around it so that you can hold the ends of the towel instead of the scalding sponge. Bury your nose and mouth in the covered sponge and breathe through nose and mouth When the sponge loses heat. remove the towel and pour on some more boil ing water.
 Cold compress is an excellent and easy cure for sore throat. Wrap cloths wrung out in iced water round the throat and renew as soon as they grow warm.

It is said that common iron nails are now successfully used by sur geons in the repair of broken and fractured bones. The nails which are used to hold the pieces in place while the healing process goes on, are soon covered with a sort of rust-resisting membrane and their presence occasions no trouble or ill effects. Sioux City, Iowa, sur geons report cases in which nails and even iron stovepipe wire have been used for this purpose.

According to a census bureau bulletin, the 1910 census shows the number of blind persons in this country to be 5z 200 or 65.2 for each 100000 of total population. The total number of blind persons in the world is estimated at 2,5oO,- GOO. The ratio of blind persons to total population is greater in New Mexico and Nevada than in any other states, owing to the larger proportion of Indians there, among whom trachoma (granulated lids) is of frequent occurrence.
