cers Too Dietato- '
rial.
For the capture of one or all four of
(he people tvho abandoned a 3-mnnths-
old baby boy, leaving It lying In the
middle.cf the road near Lakewood at
about 10:SO o'clock Thursday night, the
Lakewood Park Company, through Ita
president, X. Jacobs, has offered f 10ft
reward.
An accurate description of one of the
two men. who, with two women and a
baby, aroused the suspicions of people
at the park and subsequently vanished,
leaving the baby, Is furnished by Mr.
Jacobs, who saw them Just as they
arrived on the ear. The man was ap
parently about 82 years old, G feet, 7
Inches In height and rather heavy set.
weighing probably 183 pounds. His
face was red and clean shaven and his
nose rather flat. He wore a blue serge
coat, a pair of black trousers, an ordi
nary straw hat. a wtne-colored nrekfle.
and a white shirt. The two women
were dressed In black and ono had pink
roses In her lint.
The presence of a baby' at the park at
a late hour at night aroused the sus
picions of both Mr. Jacobs and J. Billet,
who has charge of tne dancing pavil
ion. After scrutinizing them closely.
Mr. Jacobs took a car for homo.
The four people walked .about the
grounds for a few minutes, talking
earnestly. Mr. Billet, suspecting that
they were about to abandon the baby,
watched them and followed at a dls,
tanco. They went down the road and
separated at the car track, the women
going one way and the men the other.
Here Mr. Billet lost track of them In
the darkness and went back to summon
aid In the search. Several employees
nf the park hunted In various dlrec.
tlons. but without result.
County Officers Jordan and Colley ar
rived at about this time and said that
they hp<l seen four peoplo answering
the description given by Mr. Billet
boarding the Federal prison and West
Peachtree car where It crosses the
Lakewood line not far from the park
Inspector Earl Watson and the- two
county officers started ofT up the road
toward the Federal prison line. Just
as a car passed them they saw some
thing while lying In the middle of the
road. It was the sleeping baby, so
plnccd that any carriage driving down
the dark road would have run over It
The Infunt was wrapped In a cream-
colored shawl of n line texture. Iti
clothes were of the most expensive
quality, but without Initial or other
means of Identification. It was sent to
the Home for ithe Friendless.
Word was sent to town Vo look oul
for the people who abandoned the child.
All Lakewood and West Peachtree cars
were stopped, but the four had got off
at some Intermediate point.
Mr. Jacobs states that he Is sure that
he would know the red-toped,man If he
Were to see him again.

lay the difficulties cf securing men for
enlistment will constantly increase. Out
of thirty regiments of infantry' It Is
said to be a fact that hardly a com
pany In the entire number Is recruited
up to Its required strength.
Don't Like Young Officcre.
Another cauee said to be a prime
factor In the difficulties now besetting
the army Is the young omccra from the
military academy. These young men
come out of the military training school
with only a theoretical Idea of handling
men. and soldiers say they have exag
gerated Ideus of their Authority, and
conduct themselves In a way that visits
unnecessary hardships on the enlisted
man.
•They act on the theory that the pri
vate Is a low being, and treat him ac
cordingly," sold one enlisted soldier
whose term hod expired. The percent
age of desertions Is said to be
thoughtful people. Ho—er .andj.a^ ro^ and due.,* I.
tnolr number Is Increasing every '— ...
month, who prefer good, sturdy ^health
11 sickness, and they leave off" coffc
because It certains a drug—caffeine—
that produces disease.
Many people have to learn by hard
knocks that this Is true, and they get
Hie knocks all right It they stick to
coffee.
A S. C. woman says: "For two
years or more before leaving off cof
fee nnd beginning the use Of Postum
food Coffee, my’health became very
much Impaired, as I discovered after
ward. from coffee drinking.
"I suffered from shortness of breath,
rains about the heart, nnd the slightest
exercise completely- exhausted me. My
digestion was liad and gas would form
In the stomach, rendering me wretched,
and rny lire a burden. Medicine did
not help the trouble. 1 was at the
t'olnt of giving up m despair when my
attention was attracted to the state
ment that coffee cnuseil some oft the
eymptoma that 1 had. I determined o
abandon it and try Postum Food Cof
fee.
“I had the Postum well made and
the result during the post , twelve
to mths has been something wonderful.
All of the old troubles lett. 1 hove
been In excellent health, and my friends
all notice It and speak of It. I never
lose an opportunity of telling them that
the change In.my health was caused by
leaving off coffee nnd taking on the
liquid food-drink. Postum.
"•'» argument from any source could
fonvlnce me to the contrary of what I
nave found out. I have seen murli the
'amt results In my sister’s family and
among other acquaintances.” “There's

dian border, the number of desertions
Is said to be appallingly large.
Hard to Gst Men.
Recruiting officers all over the coun
try say that it Is very hard to get
enlistments nqw. The percentage at
applicants for Jobs In Uncle Barn's
regulars Is constantly declining. These
facts are realised by the officers and
the war department, but nothing can
bo done In the way of better pay With
out authority of congress.
Another cause for failure'of young
men to er.llst Is said to bo the necessi
ty of Philippine service. At on® time
the Journey around the world proved
very enticing, but since so many have
died or had their health wrecked by
service In the Islands. It now proves a
deterrent to enlistments.
The situation Is n very grave one,
and Is Increasing all the time.
