of the merchant*, have realised the
great value in group advertising, and
that it will not be long before another
move similar to this c*no is launched.
Perhaps one of the most Interesting
V
features connected with the week was
the tttggtHl five dollar hill which was

on Tuesday, July r>t 1?. livery person ,
receiving this bill on account was to
quested to pay another account with
it and place their name on the tag.
deports from our . Chamber of Com
mence Is t <? the effect that this bill
paid 88 account*. In some cases pur
chases were made Instead of (paying
accounts and in some cases an account
less than $5.00 was paid with the hill,
but It Is estimated that practically all
accounts paid with the bill nmount|ed
to five dollars, which makes the total
amount paid by this hfll during the
week $440,
Taking it for grunted that only half
tlic amount was paid each time, the
bill paid $220.00 in accounts, but as
stated above, it cj\i? safely be estimated
that practically rvl I. accounts paid
amounted to five ilollars.

music and words of thl* old ?ong
chime qiiU bleud so harmoutousi y ami
the song is go pathetically true that
It appeala to and penetrate* the no
bler and higher instincts In every hu
man Ilea i t.
While other ftong*. .some written b.v
world famous poet*. have been cast
aside for newer creations, "Home, |
Sweet Home' Is today as popular a
melody as when first given by Its an
thor to an enraptured world. Nothing
bus ever been or evct will be. -produced
to take Its place. It Ik the Alpha and
Omega of melodies on that one sub
ject, and will endure so long as the
human nice has a habitation and "place
of abode.
I "Home, Sweet Home,", has been
tiauslatcd into every tOngUe and has
?VUU invaded <he desert aifl the dark
est wilderness. Travellers have heard
it sting by Aral ?s |p the Saharra desert,
those migratory people whose homes
hnd horse hair tents are shifted from
oasis to oasis as their needs demand;
And yet these descendants of Ishmael
love even their tents as a home. Stan
ley, in one of his letters to the New
York Herald, wrote that he heard In
darkest Africa, u baud of naked sav
ages In their guttern I voices, chanting
"Home, Sweet I-Ionie." that was intro
duced by a burthen bearer of their
tribe for a party of home-sick .Ameri
can explorer.*. These black savages
live in huts constructed of brush or
grass and yet those hovels were to
t hem a home. The Esquimaux,. it is
said, has long introduced this song in
ids winter Ice-burrow, for the foul
cave is to him a "Home. Sweet Home."
It would appear that the Turk, with
bis harem, would be one race that
would have a -surfeit of home, but
this American song is one of the most
popular airs in Turkey.
Josh Hillings wrote t\j.t the most
I arrant coward would fight to protect
| his home, but lie never-heard of a fcl
j low shouldering a musket in defense
lot' a hoarding house. This witticism
I carries with It a mine of wisdom and
truth. To abide in a palace belonging
to another and from which you can be
ejected at the whim of the owner, is
not like having a home of your own.
It matters not how humble that habi
tation may be "there Is no -place like
home. From the smallest insect to the
wild beast, instinct teaches It to first
construct a home to which it can retire
for rest and safety. It is the one small
part on earth over which the occupant
has sole ownership. The ant burrows
j a home in I he earth and the tiger, lion
and all wild beasts have their lair or
cave. But that den is home.
The first written laws ever framed
were by Knglish barons beneath the
| wide spreading .shade of a giant oak:
and the first declaration was made
j that a man's home was his castle, and
that it was ever sacred from invasion
j except ht consent of the owner. And
Jwith tlie first settlement of America
this declaration was imported with

olden times children were more sub
missive to parental authority than in
these days . ? J
Ami Just here let tne Mtitte that
tunny years ago, when I published a
! paper in Athens, Georgia, I lived next
doer to this same Miss Mary Harden
and my partner. Horace t'ranfordi
rented and lived In part of her home.
She retained in her service an old mu
latto named ltoh lloy a body senant
oi her father, General Harden. This
old negro waited on John Howard
Paine when he vUlted Id* young mi*
tress ami always %belng of an invest i
gntlug turn of mind and never for
yetting what I have once heard. I had
a rare opportunity < f learning' and
preserving In meiuorv unpublished in
cldents In the life of this world
famous eharaeter.
I At that time Miss Mary Harden was
a very old maiden lady, almost de
, erepld, v who lived almost the life of
f :i recluse She hail outlived all of her
kindred and friends, was looked upon
I sMiuowha t as a miser and seemed
| rather to avoid mingling' with the
I outside world. Ainoug her few asso
riiiies was a charitable youni.' lady
! named Miss Kffie. .lackson and to
whom Miss Harden bequeathed her en
tire property, but on her death-bed e\
j acted from Miss Jackson a promise
that she would bury with her a trunl^
fill of old love letters written her by
John Howard Paine, together with
the priceless relle, the original manu
script of "Home. Sweet Home." with
erasures ami dialling of words bv the
author which he gave to the lady of
his love.
When the remains of John Howard
t Pa 1 1 it* were brought back from Algiers
<and the whole country was preparing
' to do honor to his memory the pub
j Ushers of Frank Leslie's Magazine
i wrote me offering $500 for the oriir

Harden ami handed her the Leslie let

would not buy it and would not even

1 sometimes think of tho*e young
women who have made up their minds
never to wed had seen the forlorn
and almost friendless existence led
by the old sweetheart of that immortal
author of the song "Home, Sweet
Home" it would be an object lesson
to them. The story of the wrecking of
two happy voting lives' should also
be a warning to parents of interfering
with the future mating of their chil

ny.yer love ardently but once and that
will endure as long as life lasts.
There Is no Question but that his

tlnit would have added rleh treasurers
to the literature of the world. He
wrote his "Homo Sweet Koine'' while
in th?> zenith of his young love, and
when all hope was abandoned of ever
winning the baud of Mary Ha i dea he
sought relief by becoming a self-exile
from his native laud.
John Howard Paine In a letter to a
friend told of how he had walked the
st reels , a-t night of some great Euro
l tea it capital ? London, Paris or Vienna
?utterly penniless, hungry, without
p!aee to lay his head, he would pass
some brilliantly illuminated palace at
the close of a night of revelry and
hear the musicians ending with his
"llome.Sweet Home." Little did those
joyous pleasure-seekers know that the
author of that, song was a homeless
wanderer at their dooTT ,
