Luke McLuI<e Says:


 There is something wrong with a boy who hates dogs and won't throw stones at cats.
 Some of the girls who are peaches on the street are lemons when they are at home.
 Before marriage she is "dear," and he is ''treasure.' After marriage she becomes dearer, and he becomes treas urer, and wet they have a scrap every day.
 The ideal woman continues to be the one you didn't marry. The man who maries a girl for her complexion in June finds out that peaches and cream cost heap of money in December.
 If a man would praise his wife as much at home as he does when he is outside the honeymoon would never end.
 The reason why woman never for gets to mail a letter is because she hasn't any pockets
 The man who is too lazy to work for a thing will get down on his knees and pray for it, and then feel greatly sur prised because he doesn't get it.
 Some people get a lot of comfort out of the reflection that there are lots of people in the world. who are worse than they are.
 Always laugh at a mans jokes. And some day he will lend you money when you need it.
 A good housekeeper is always hard up for aprons.
 A good natured puppy dog is pretty friendly. But he hasn't anything on a candidate before election.
 When a man sets himself up as an example some people can't figure out what he amounts to.
 The old fashioned woman who used to think that she was disgraced if she didn't get her wash out on the line on Monday morning before the other wo- men in the neighborhood now has a daughter who tells the laundryman to come back on Tuesday for the wash because she is too tired to get it ready on Monday
 The man who has four hairs to streak across his dome always feels sorry for a poor boob who is bald headed

FARMS FOR SALE /!

than your lands and can be bought for
the same and less per acre than your
hillside lands. This county is not all
level by any means We have hills and
mountains, and am glad we have, for
they mean good cold water and assured
health. We are also far enough north
not to be affected by the much dreaded
hol weevil. Our farmers aS II whole

Gordon County Fair!

You are cordially invited to attend
the eleventh Annual County Fair at
Calhoun, Ga, Oct. 10th to 23d, inclus-
i've. See the variety and quality of
crops grown in this section, section
that has natural lime and potash in the
soil (see government report on same),
and considered too far north for the
boil weevil now in Georgia, to ever
affect. This makes it very attractive
on account of the boil weevil reported
in south and middle Georgia, and the
high priced fertilizer, as cotton
growing section; also it is naturally
adapted to grains, grasses and stock
raising.
To quote w. P. Stewart, who moved
from Pickens c. H. and bought farm
some two years ago: "One can learn
more in one day at the fair as to what
this county grows in the way of farm
products than he could in any other way
in months time"
