'Most women'.ire ri illy inti rested in pre
nerving and beaut’: tying 'the complexion,
and t.lie wn.in.in who biKi.-ts of never using
powder is to be regarded with ewsplcion.
One lady was .shoi'kcd al the bl< a of using
rouge, but comf< s? ed llu.it when she was a
girl she would pinch her cheeks 'before dhe
went to a party. She was astonished wlien
told 'that an < m'inenl physician had said
that there was such a thing as a 'harmless
rouge, but .that it was a positive sin to
pinch the clneks, bis a use lilial process was
absolutely sure to bruise the skin. some
times causing serious trouble. There are
two ways 'in which using rouge of any
kind may income wrong one is to utse
too much, for surely one must not forget
thu't 'painting is an art. The second harm
Is done when a girl takes to hiding her
rouge box as 'if she were taifliauned of hav
ing it; if slhe i ashamed of it then she has
no right to it. and one girl 1 know has
greatly added to my alnady great respect
for her honesty, 'by keeping iter rouge box
side by side with her cu't glass and silver
toilet articles. The following on the sub
ject is from a Northern paper:
Foreigners almost invariably notice the
freshness of complexion of the French wo
men. "Their complexion is in genet k
nearly perfection." Brownmil says. "Less
florid than the English. it is nevertheless
full of color, readily changeable and of
purity unaffected either by its occasional
leaning toward olive of by its more fre
quent shading into pink." \nother student
of the French. ei man, speaks of the "in
destructibleness" of the Parisian woman,
her lack of wrinkles or signs of age. .A
man attributes all that to natural endow
ment. A womafi who lives among French
women and studies 'them knows that it is
the result of rare. "You musn’t think it’s
because I’m so young that I’ve no wrink
les," a French woman once said to me,
laughingly. "It’s because 1 take such
good care to keep them off." "What do
you do? 1 asked. This Is what she did:
The first thing 'in the morning she plunged
her face- not plunged, but rather spat
tered her face--forcibly and rapidly, first
"with hot. then with cold water, to got up
the idreulatlon. Xfterwards she rubbed
vaseline or cold cream, or whftt is called
rose cream, into it for twelve minutes.
That was the - 'e>ntirc secret. Lines come
in 'the faces and stay there because the
flesh loses its suppleness with years. Near
ly all French worn, n who care for their
persons massage their faces every day af
terwashing them. Vnot'her thing they rare
ly do is to <go into wind, as in bicycling
without putting some one of Hhe delicate
creams that .ire sold almost anywhere for
the skin on to the the face and powdering
It. “You s.fv yon never put anything on
your face!” 1 heard a French woman say
to an American, who protested that she
couldn’t enduro the idea of even powder.
“But what does the wind put there? Dust,
microbes. des saletes de tout espece! The
powder you put on It is much cleaner than
those.”

MERCER TEAM INDIGNANT
At Falsehoods Which Appeared in the Red
e and Black at Athens.
The 'Mercer boys are 'highly indignant at
the falsehoods which the Red and Black,
the college paper of tlhe University of
Georgia publiwihcd aliou.t the game which
was played here same- time ago. The prin
cipal allegations made by .the Athens imen
was tlhat t'he umpire was the cause of their
defeat. Since .time imimennoria'l Athens lias
laid her defeats at the foot of the umpire
and t he referee, an'd everybody that knows
the college know that llhey 'have .never
acknowledged an honest defeat. The Ath
ens boys say that the game was called in
the sixth innting when they were behind
and that the isun was shining brightly.
The 'Mercer boys «a.y that every spectator
present can give this asertion the ilie, for
it was impossible to see the ball when the
game was called. Athens could not have
hoped to have 'done anything else. After
GarreUt war. put in .tlhe box they did not
geit 'a single hit. and Mercer was slugging
Curtis right and 'left. If the game had
continued longer the defeat of 'Athens
would have been muclh more crushing.
Everybody over the state remembers
with disgust Ithe manner in which ithe
Athens boys took their defeat at the hands
of t'he IMereer boys several years agio, and
charged the whole thing to Umpire O'Con
nell. who has umpired hundreds of games
and thas never had a single kick except
that made by the Athens team, and it is
a well known tact that they have never
gone into a game and been defeated .that
they did not have some excuse, and it was
generally that Hthey were robbed tby the
umpire. Several of the spectators who
saw the game between Athens and iMercer
and then saw the criilicDm in Red land
Black, are indignant, and the article was
evidently written by some one Who was
not present, for if he was present he 'was
not gifted with a desire to fell the truth.

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
Met and Transacted Nothing But Routine
Business
The counity commissioners met this
morning in their regular session and
transacted routine burliness. There was
nothing of importance ibefore the board
and the session was short.
The war question came up among other
things and a canvass of ithe members of
the board was made to find out if any of
them were willing to go. The only one who
had sufficient war spirit in him to volun
teer was Commissioner Henry. But it not
ait all certain .that he will volunteer his
services.
Two roads were opened, one in the Rut
land and the other in the East Macon dis

MERCER TRACK TEAM.

Ther is some sqdendid material on the
Mercer track team, and they will have
many surprises for the boys from Athens
and the Technological school.

CONVENTION I
IHORFOLK
The Southern Baotists Leeve
for the Point of Meeting
Tomorrow.
WITSETT'S RESIGNATION,
It is Probable that He Will Have to
Leave His Church—The Com
mittees as Appointed.
The annual meeting of the Southern
Baptist Convention will be held in Norfolk,
Va., this week, the first session being held
Friday morning at 10 o’clock. The Amer
ican Baptist Education Society will meet
Thursday. On the same day the B. Y. P.
U. auxiliary to the Southern 'Baptist Con
vention wil hold a workers' meeting. The
gathering promises to be one of the most
successful in the history of the organiza
tion, and a large number of delegates are
expected.
The Southern Baptist theological semina
ry at Louisville, whioh is under the control
of this convention, is just now the great
congelation about which the main inter
est centers. AVhen Dr. Broadus died IDr.
■Whitsitt was elected president to succeed
him. Dr. Whitsitt wrote certain editorials
in the Independent in which he asserted
that prior to 1641 Baptists in England did
not emerse for baptism. He also wrote a
book in which he gave extracts from old
writers to prove the truta of his asser
tions.
This brought a storm of criticism from
the Baptist denomination. Dr. Whitsitt
was severely censured on all sides, wnile
some agreed with him. It was urged for a
while that he should be forced to resign.
Before the meeting of the last convention
in Wilmington every influence was brought
to bear on the trustees to induce them to.
force Dr. Whitsitt out. Instead of doing
this, however, they agreed on a resolution,
the substance of which was that even if
he Ibclieved his statements to be true, he
did not indorse them, and as he was sound
in Bible doctrine, he should not be mo
lested.
This resolution was read 'before the con
vention and Dr. 'Whitsit was congratula
ted. Unfortunately, however, some one
happened to start the tune, “lAmazing
grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a
wretch like me,” and the controversy
broke out with renewed vigor. Dr. Chris
tian denounced Dr. Whitsitt in plain lan
guage. branding him as falsifier or a pla
giarist. "
Dr. Whitsitt denied the charge, and there
are still many who believe he will be re
moved from the seminary. The trustees
will probably take up the matter, and there
will likely be some interesting discussions
at the coming convention. The board of
trustees consists of the following members:
For Maryland—Joshua Levering, H. M.
Wharton, R. H. Edmonds, J. W. (Millard;
one vacancy.
For Virginia—T. S. Duaway, W. E.
Hatcher, L. R. Thornhill, J. 18. Taylor, C.
H. ißyland.
For Georgia—C. A. Davis, A. D. Free
man, H. 11. Hickman, R. B. Headden, J.
H. Kilpatrick, Henry McDonald, W. J
Northen, I. T. Tichenor, C. B. Willing
ham, W. W. Landrum. «
For North Carol in a--John Mitchell, C. E.
Taylor, R. H. Marsh, J. H. Tucker.
For Alabama —Jonathan Harralson, T. G.
Bush, G. B. Eager.
For Texas —H. B. Carroll, E. E. King.
For Kentucky—J. G. Caldwell, W. H.
Felix, C. W. Gheens, Theodore Harris, T.
J. Humphries, G. W. Norton, Arthur Peter,
T. C. Stackhouse, J. W. Warden, T. T. Ea
ton; one vacancy.
For South Carolina—W. F. Fox, W. L.
Durst, E. J. Forrester, J. H. Hudson, C.
H. Judson, W. C. Lindsay, Charles Manly,
J. W. Perry, J. C. Smith, A. J. S. Thomas,
D. M. Ramsay.
For Missouri —J. P. Greene, G. W. Hyde;
one vacancy.
For Mississippi—A. V. Row’e, H. F.
Sproles.
For Tennessee—E. L. Jordan, W. W.
Woodruff.
For Arkansas—None, and no vacancy.
For Louisiana —'None, and no vacancy.
For Florida —None, and no vacancy.
Vacancies are caused only by death, fby
absence from all meetings of rhe board for
three years and removal from the state for
which the appointment was made. For
each vacancy that occurs the, the Southern
Baptist convention has the right to make
three nominations, one of which the board
must accept.

MAY MUSICAL FESTIVAL.
Boston Papers’ Criticism of One of Those
Who Will Take Part.
In speaking of a concert in Boston some
time ago ithe Herald has tlhe following to
say of 'Mlle. Fannie Hands, who will ap
pear In the May Alusieal Festival in Macon
May 11. 12:
A prominent and notable feature in ithe
concert was the singing of Mlle. Nannie
Hands. She lhas a mezzo-soprano voice
large in vxriume, smooth and sympathetic
in quality, and it lends itself easily to
every shade of expression. It .is especially
rich and 'warm in its middle register. She
sings with winning frankness and with
a fire and enthusiasm that shows ther to
be possessed of tlhe artistic itemiperament.
A parhicularly pleasing element in her
singing is its straightforwardness and its
freedom from affectation. The selections
from the Von Fielitz cyclus were given
in a thoroughly musficianilj- spirit, rhe first
three witlli refined tenderness of sentiment,
and .the last “Anathema.” with stirring
dramatic emphasis and large intensity of
feeling. In her other contributions <to the
concert, her singing was equally interest
ing and all were .marked by admirable
phrasing and artistic intelligence. In brief
Mlle. Hands has natural gifts of an order
that eminently fit her .for steady growith
in heir art. She made a strong impression
and was vigorously applauded.
WHOOPING COUGH.
I had a little boy who was nearly dead
from an atack of whooping cough. My
neighbors recommended Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy. I did not think that any
medicine would help him. but after giving
him a few doses of that medicine I noticed
an improvement, and one bottle cured him
entirely. It is the best cough medicine I
ever had in the house.—J. s. Moore, South

INSURANCE MEN
REAPIN£HARVEST
The War Has Stimulated Bus

mendous Proportions.
HAVE ALL THEY CAN DO
To Look After the Applications t! at
Come in—One Con pi .y’s
Big Day.
One of the effects of war is the tremen
dous increase in life insurance business
nw.v. Such activity in this line of ibusi
ness has never been known before and the
life insurance men are reaping a golden
harvest.
A prominent insurance man said to a
News reporter this morning that he had
never heard of so much (business in this
line before, and did not think it possible
that there were so many people who did
not carry insurance.
This increase in activity is not confined
to local insurance circles, but the dis
trict managers say that it is general all
over the state. In many of the offices it
has been found necessary to increase the
office force to properly look after the bus
iness. Nearly all of the responsible com
panies have made no raise whatever in
rates in anticipation of war, and will also
grant permission for any policy holder to
go to the front. One of the local branches
of a prominent company wrote over a hun
dred thousand dollars worth of insurance
yesterday.
The solicitors say that they have no
trouble in getting business now, and men
who have no idea of going to the war, are
talking about policies on the maturity
plan.
In the offices of all the iocal branches
there is the utmost activity, and one com
pany has employed three physicians regu
larly to examine applicants.
I have been a sufferer from chronic di
arrhoea ever since the war and have used
