STREET PROFANITY.

One has only to stand around on
the streets where men are cengre-
gated and engaged in conversation
for very short while to decide that
we are becoming nation profane
and vulgar.
Men who indulge in profanity
without regard to the rublics well
fare and who are openly and without
discretion violating the command
ment Thou shalt not take the name
of the Lord thy God in vain" are
becoming a veritable nuisence to
those who are of more refined and
intelligent disposition, especially un-
TO ladies who are wont to travel on
the sidewalks or streets in this town
and who have to hear the profanity
Of those who do not even use conf
mon discretion in their conversatios.
Men who are supposed to be men
of intelligence will promisconsly use
profanity in the presence Of boys
and children apparently without any
thought as to the example they
should be setting, and not only do
they use profanity but frequently
lido we hear the coarsest kind Of vul-
garity being used in the presence of
children.
If it were not a violation of the
laws of the country would it not be
better for those OF us who are thus
so thoughtless to use more common
decency in expressing our thoughts
one to another2
Let us take note of the kind of
conversation we engage in and try
to be more discreet in our manner
of expressing ourselves.

THREE WAYS OF E1BALMINe
Methods Followed In Ancient EGYPT
Differed According to the Rank
Of the Deceased.

There were three different ways Of
embalming In old Egypt. The most
magnificent was bestowed only upon
persons of distinguished rank. When
a person OF distinction died the body
was put into a coffin, the upper ex-
terIor Of which represented the de-
ceased with suitable establishment.
The coffin itself was usually made Of
sycamore wood, which Is said to be
almost incorruptible. Sometimes deal
was used, In which case 1t was brought
from abroad. The embalming Of
the body occupied 40 to 20 days. 1t
consisted mainly of the introduction
of astrlngent drugs and spices into
the body, amounting 1t with oils Of
cedar, myrrh and cinnamon, and sat
uratlng II with inter. 1t was then
washed and wrapped In linen bands
dipped in myrrh and gum--these
bands In some instances being 1000
yards long-commencing at the head
and terminating at the feet, avoiding
the face. The body was then re-
stored by the embalmers to the rela-
tives, who placed it in the coffin.
A less expensive method Of embalm-
ing was simply to inject into the bow
els liquid extract Of cedar, and
wrapping up the body in salt and
inter; others were soaked, or as some
think, boiled in a kind of bitumen
made Of mixed resinous substances.
They we're then placed, without any
other covering than the bandages sat
urated with these substances, in sep
ulchres, and there deposited in rows
by thousands.

Truly. Puck Was RIqhs.

A club this writer belongs to has
been ready for a year or more to put
up a new building-but 1t hasn't.
Three friends have been for over a
year in a position to build three new
residences-but they haven't. What's
the trouble? The reader can easily
guess. It's a bit discOuraging. God
has given US a beautiful world and we
don't know how to run 1t. any more
than Adam did to run Eden-and we
have several thousand years of ex-
perience over Adam, at that. We ought
to be ashamed, lunkheads that we aref

LEESBURG AS SHE IS.

Leesburg is certainly nice little
town in which to live. Nestled, as
she is. on the banks OF the beautiful
ard historic Kinchafoonee and
Muckalee creeks where the
soughing of the pines is ever
heard as they nod their heads
in the cooling breezes, where flowers
seem to rnn riot in their beauty and
fragrance, where pure and healthy
air circulates its cheering influences
upon the inhabitants and with all
OVERLOOKING cornucopia OF nuts and
fruits to cheer us along the decades
of life. We truly have here all
things that go to make up comfort
able and pleasant living.
Leesburg has dozens of splendid
" appointed business houses, we'll
filled with choicest goods in all lines
where polite and gentel clerks await
the coming of the customers and to
supply their needs.
Three churches, those noble in
stitutions OF God. lift their spires
heavenward, pointing, as it were,
to the place to which their doctrinal
training leads. We have as good
railroad facilities as any town in
the state with II passenger trains
daily, and a freight service that is
excellent and bring in our CONNER
cial commodities as well az splen-
did people who come to visit us or
are seeking n good location in
which to live and where no one is
granted permit to die.
A good graded school, large and
splendidly managed is a pride to the
general papulace and an honor and
blessing unto the rising generation
that comes under its influences.
We have here water, of medicinal
mineral extraction that is fit for the
the gods to drink Our water and
lighting system is equal to that OF
any other town this size. We have
garages, shops and many other
institutions that contribute as factors
to a real good town. Nor must we
forget the job printing office and the
newspaper which wants to be and
will he factor to better town.
Of course there are greater things
here than even these, for the popu-
lace is one of the best we have ever
known. The organizations of
women, the dodgers are harmonious
working order and look to but one
thing-the betterment of all hui
mainly.
There may be few things that
we as a town need. Later We may
make mention of them. AT this
time we would Just add that Lees.
burg is a good place to live. If
you think not, the invitation is out
TO you to come and see for yourself
AS a further inducement. we would
say: Leesburg has happy home,
sweet home" where ever the eye
turns occupied by contented mothers
and fathers with the prettiest daugh-
tiers and the best sons, the sweetest
bouncing babies, and-my, my!
just come over and be a part and
parcel of Leesburg and help us
make it even a better place.
