WHAT! AGAIN!
I saw him again today. He was
crossing Fortieth Street against
traffic. Nearly over, he tripped.
He just caught himself. Just then
I caught his eye and winked at
him.
He merely grinned. It was an ad
mission that it was a stunt, and a
mighty good one. One that hard
ened New Yorkers eat up.
A FADED FLOWER
Years ago a certain pretty girl
was the toast of Broadway. She was
a reigning beauty on the stage.
The other day I passed a hair
dresser on Fifth Avenue. In a
frame were pictures of women who
had dyed their grey hair, with their
testimonial letters. Her picture, as
beautiful as ever, v* ? as in the cen
ter of the lay-cut.
Just one more of the many heart-
twinges that come at nearly every
corner in this big town.
A TIP ON EATING
Rural visitors to this city need
not fear being forced to pay out too
much for eating. One can get m&als
from thirty cents up.

their windows showing their prices

ATTENTION, PLANTERS
The Augusta market offers a ready cash sale

A great many of the railroads have reduced
their rates into Augusta. In the event that you
cannot secure these cheap rates, send your
cotton to us by trucks. All cotton shipped to
us on trucks is covered by fire insurance at our
expense.
Realizing that the price is exceedingly low,
