I Form of Pure Commercial Gelatin Made From the Sounds of Sturgeon and Cod. The little windows in the hard coal burning stove arc commonly thought to be isinglass, but they are made of mica, and are not isinglass at all. Isin glass is a form of pufc commercial gelatin, made from the sounds 'or air-bladders of certain fish, especially sturgeon and cod. After be ng cleaned and slit open the air-bladders undergo no other preparation than being dried and put into rolls i about the-size of the finger. 'Before the war Russia produced a large portion of . the world's isinglass. Boiled .in milk, isinglass forms a mildly nutritious jelly, and is thus sometimes used medicinally. Its prin cipal purpose, however, is for clarify ing liquors. It is also used in mak ing j:ourtp!astcr. cement, jellies, soups, India ink and sizing fabrics. The Value of the Newspaper. Senator Davis of Illinois made this statement in a recent address: Every . car each local paper gives from $200 to $1000 in free lines to the city or town in which it is located, in boosting, praising, and for socials, churches, schools, societies, etc. The editor in proportion to his means, does more for the town than any other man in it, and h? ought to be supported, net because you like or dwlike him and his style, but because a local paper in one of the town's'' best features Today the .local' pa pers arc doing more for less pay than, anything on earth,' and it's a fact "in many cases of free .notices." Not That, Please. It was a very cheap restaurant hid den away in a little back street of London's financial district, where dinners are sold for a very tew pence at least, they are called dinners. Among the customers was a bank rupt stock jobber, who. tould hardly afford to patronize even a place such as that. He ordered the cheapest meal possible from the waiter, and when the food was brought along he noticed that the man who carried the tray was an old friend of his. "Cnnd heavens. Charlie!" he cried. I "Whatever are you doing here? You don t mean to say that you nave come down to this?" . Charlie drew himself up with dig nity. , "I wait here, Bill," he replied coldly.

But we miss her, Oh! so. much. Not. only is she missed in the home, but in the surrounding community, by schoolmates, playmates, and by all who knewher, She was a child with an unusually kind disposition, and al ways carried an innocent, sweet smiling face. She had a. kind word and a smile lor every one she met. She was a great lover music, always singing some sweet little song. One of he- favorite songs was "There Is a Rainbow Promise in the Sky." . Though we miss her in this world, we know that our loss, is her eternal gain, for - we know that she shall sleep, but not forever, ,that there will be a glorious dawn and that wc shall meet to part no more on the Resur rection Morn. ONE WHO LOVED HER. ' VEGETABLE CAR. i , Will the farmers of Macon County patronize a package car or vegetable car if one is put on by the Tallulah. Falls Railway?

X-Rav Sermons ! j i Making the World a Better Place Than We Find It. It is a very common thing to hear" a person say, "I want to kivc the-; world a better place than,..it was be fore I came into it." The ambition is a very noble one, but, Hke .all noble intentions, it is not worth the-most: unless it is applied to rea! problems-; -in a' practical way. . Have you ever spent an hour think ing of definite ways in which you car make the world a better place? In this great work, different per sons will have different, parti to per form. It may be your duty to make, the v.orld better for farmers who wtl'r! come after you, by planting trees orw some hill'ide that is being scarred by gnllicscr by planting more legumes, so the fertility of. the soil will be greater ' when future generation?. tin it. ; ; Or.it may be your, duty ro cause some boy to become interested in mech?nical problem or other ques tions whose solution will be of benefit to mankind. Who knows when a practical interest of .'this kind will save a boy or girl from giving his or her' life to worthless or sinful things? Or again it may be your duty to' teach spiritual truths to show the - minds' of the unstable that a planting of evil must ultimately bring a crop of sorrow. The great philosophers of the . world, as well as the Word of God, teach that "Whatsoever a mart soweth THAT shall he also reap." It may be your duty to do air the things mentioned and more. You can not do more than is your duty. Who is doing the work of Christ irr the world today? The Great Noble man has said to US', "Occupy till 1 come." " ' X-RAY. . "Intuition" Tells Her. "My dear," remarked Jinks, who had just finished reading a. book ort "The Wonders of Nature," "this really is a remarkable work. Nature is mar velous! Stupendous! W'hen I read a: book like this it makes me think how: puerile, how insignificant is man." "Huh!" sniffed his better-half. "A. woman doesn't have to wade through' 400 pages to discover that.!"
