Wallingford said:
“ It always helps some to remember that in this big
United States people have been saving up money
for years, just waiting for me to come and get,it.”
Which led to this reflection:
“ I’ve never taken a fall out of the insurance game,
and it sounds good. Ten oents seems like a piker
game, but when we’ve got 250,000 members, that
trifling ante amounts to $25*000 a month.”
The conclusion is a live-wire story of credulous savers
and an unscrupulous spender; it is the second story
in MR. GEORGE RANDOLPH CHESTER’S
Get-Rich-Quick series; it is called
Profitable Benevolence

Going of Saloons Will Not

WILL BE CLOSED IN
CITY OF COLUMBUS
Special to The Georgian.
Augusta, (Ja.. Dec. 6.—Tho local buslnei*
work! 1* now beginning to prepare for the
readjustment that must take place on cer-
tain commercial Ilnea with the advent of
the prohibition regime that will begin
the first day of the new year, filpre the
first little flurry following the passage of
the nntl-Uquor measure by the legislature
ln*t summer there hare been but few ex
presslona of anticipated Inconveniences In
the local business world, and tbe subject
has hardly been discussed In Augusta.
Local business men are prepared to accept
the situation In good spirit And have uo
fear of the consequences.
As a result of the enactment pf the pro*
htbltlon law ninety-three saloons will be
put out of business in Augusta and In ad
dition one brewery. About one-half of this
number are situated in desirable location*
on Broad street, the principal business thor
oughfare.
The dosing of these saloons will mean a
loss In revenue to the city through llcenaeg
of $37,000. The loss In property tax will
amount to approximately $7,600, while coun
ty, state and United States revenue will
suffer to the extent of approximately $25,000,
License tax from other business that will
supplant the saloons will reduce this greatly.
About 800 persons will flud It neoerary to
seek other employment. Many of this num
ber have, however, made such arreugementx

Macon, aa., Dec, 0.—When the state
of Georgia goes dry January 1, there
will be rlghty-slx bar rooma In Macon
that wilt close their doors and go out
of business and twelve wholesale liquor
houses will do likewise,
A proposition that faces the new ad
ministration Is the making up of $!0,-

out of Macon when the state goes pro

deficiency.
South Bend Got Dates Con
fused and Must Do It
All Over.
The best laid plans of mice and men
oft slip a cog and tear up all the ma
chinery, is an axiom of some force and
merit, as may be verified by the result
of atj« election for Justice of the peace
held in the .South Bend district on
Wednesday last and In which P. B.
Hopkins received the majority of the
votes.
But the unsuspecting voters were not
aware that an’election for* justice of
the peaee held on any day In the week
except Saturday is null .and void. Such
is the law, however. Just why It Is
nobody seems to know, probably not
even the man who framed the act.
As to the slip of the cog. There are
those who say that the election was
held on, the same day of the city elec
tion In the economy -of time, remember
ing that the days of prohibition draw
nl"h. An election necessitates the clos
ing of saloons, and, |n order to avoid
another day’s delay, is said to be the
reason why the hurry-up call was given
the J. Pw election. And there’s where
the cog slipped.
Judge Wilkinson declares that he
had entirely lost sight of the fact that
the election should be held on Satur
day and did not hesitate to call it on r
the same* day the city election was
held.
The ordinary will call another elec
tion at an early date, but it Is the gen
eral opinion that, having once express
ed themselves, the people , will let It
go by default and allow Judge Wilkin
son to appoint Mr. Hopkins to the of
fice which he has already, though Ilia-
gaily, been elected.

The digestive impulse
is the life of the stomach.
If this is weakened, crippled
by abuse—eating improper
food,—the rest of the body
suffers also.
The body and brain are
nourished through the di
gestive impulse. Food Is
called for and, if proper In
quality and quantity, the
tissues are repaired as fast
as mental and physical ac.
tivity breaks them down.
This is life.
Grape-Nuts food not only
meets the requirements of
tissue-repair, but is a pow
erful source of vital energy.
It contains the vital phos
phates stored up in wheat
and barley by nature.
A food expert prepared
this food so you can get
these vital elements without
bother, cooking or other
effort than simple eating
it. Eaten slowly, with cream,
it is delicious and satisfies
the ‘‘digestive impulse.”
