the situation: |

fact that in my section of the

onidas Livingston the well known
Georgia Congressman at the
Riggs. oI donTt know when the

The chief cause is the low price
of eotton. Our planters are
forced te sell a great part of their
crop as low as 44 cents a pound,
which is below the coat of pro-
duction. Even at 5 cents, which
they get only for ~middlingT
erades, it is impossible to make
both ends meet. It would be
very hard to conyince an audi-

McKinley administration had

Thought There Were Three
He is the Jast one of the old
school of doctors, says the Chi-
veago Times Herald, very bland
and polite, but also very absent
minded, except where his medi-
cal practice is concerned, ard he
was called one morning recently
to a Prairie avenue home, where
there 1s already one small son in
the family, to introduce another:
Going to the house telephone,
he called 1p the head of the
house at his plice of business.
| oHello! Hello! Is this Mr.
Dream?�
oYes. What is wanted ?�
oThisis Dr. Blank, I wish to
inform tou that you haye another
fine son. Congratulations |�
ben he rung off the telephone
without waiting to hear what Mr.
Dream had to say, and busied
himselt in professional duties
until ten minutes later, when he
again stood before the telephone
trying to remember who he
wanted and what he had to com-
municate. Then he rung up Mr.
Dream again.
oello! iiello! Is this Mr.
Dream ?�
oYes. is this you. Dr. Blask?�
oTt is, aud I wish to say that
you havo another fine son.T
Tbis time the doctor was not in
such a hurry, aud he waited to
hear what Mr, Dream had to say.
After a long sileuce thers came
from the other end of the tele-
phone wire a teeble wail.
~Another? Good heavens,
doctor, donTt call me up again. I
"I[ will come home and face the
music Jike a man.�
And great was his relief when
he found that the doctor had
complicated matters by repeating
his first message.
