Welcome Words to Women
Women who «uffer with disorder* peculiar to their yMSftT ,
aex should write our Association and receive free XK
the advice of a physician of over 40 years’ experience u? j
—a skilled and successful specialist io the diseases
of women. Every letter of this tort has the most WCffWnEgX
carefal consideration and is regarded as sacredly 7
confidential. Many sensitively modest women write ■ .
fnllywhat they would shrink from telling to their g »
iocal physician. The local physician is pretty Jj
sure to say that he cannot do anything without
•* an examination.” Dr. Pierce holds that these
distasteful examinations are generally needless, and .
that no woman, except in rare cases, should submit to then*.
Dr. Pieroe’s treatment will cure you right in the privacy of
your own home. His “Favorite Prescription” has cured
hundreds of thousands, some of them the worst of cases.
It is the oolv medicine of its kind that is the product of a regularly graduated
physician, the only one good enough that its makers dare to print its every
ingredient on its outside wrapper. There’s no secrecy. It will bear examina

THE MILEAGE BILL AND REPEAL
OF DOG LAW.
A sage old policeman once said in my
hearing: "It takes a real smart hnan to
be a postmaster, but any sort of man can
make a governor.’’ It looks like we have
struck hard pan with our present ogv
ernor, and the railroads got him on the
mileage bill while the scum of society
passed the repeal of the dog law, and
he did not have nerve enough to veto
this great outrage upon the people of
Georgia.
When you buy a mileage book you pay
your money for it. and it should be good
whenever you travel on the railroad that
issue it. Os course it Is good for travel
if honest conductors pull off the mileage,
and there is no easier way to discover
whether conductors are honest. I believe
the conductors are honest, for I have
been traveling on railroads in a private
capacity lo* these many years, and 11
have not seen any suspicious conduct in
conductors.
This hurrah over mileage books Is
only a game of bluff. It is insolence.
It is asainancy. When I scane the legis- j
lattve lists. I am 'of the opinion that
railroads have about concluded to run the j
state of Georgia by electing the legis
lature. Some years ago they did run the
state, but some patriots established the
railroad commission to hold them down.
It now looks like the railroads have de
termined to elect the railroad commis
sion. Os this we will write later on.
But a people who will make no united
effort to defend their, own liberties will
always be boss ridden I never believed
we would have a Georgia legislature
that would repeal a dog law nor a gov
ernor who would not veto such a repeal
if he had sense enough to know his busi
ness. e

the gbace CASE.
. I was glad Mrs. Grace was pronounced
not guilty, and I am free to confess that
I never did believe she attempted to
kill her husband. Her story was a very
straight one. and there was only circum
stantial evidence against her.
But I also believe she was a born
•Illy fool to claim that she still loved
the man who left no stone unturned to
•end her to the gallows. If she ever
does go back to him somebody should
sue out a writ of lunacy and place her
in an asylum.
She was a simpleton to marry the sec
ond time, with a blind child dependent
on her, and a widowed mother also. If
she had not been endowed with a consid
erable bank account she would not have
attracted a suitor. But she did get a
chanc* to marry-, and the poor creature
took .. and spent a good lot of money
on unappreciative people.
But she has liberty to go back to her
mother and the blind boy. and she will
stay there If she has any mother-wit
left in her makeup, and nobody- is going
to give her a word of pity of she desires
to get back to her former husband, nor
will she deserve any sympathy if she at
tempts it.
But the Grace case was a sensation
while it lasted. The newspapers said

GARBS OF TEACHERS
SUBJECT OF INQUIRY
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.—Before leav
ing for Hawaii. Secretary of the Inte
rior Fisher tonight submitted to Presi
dent Taft a letter fully setting forth his
I decision with regard to the wearing of
religious garb by teachers in govern
iment Indian schools. The president has
not yet examined Mr. Fisher’s decision
and it will not be made public until it
is forwarded to Mr. Valentine, commis
sioner of Indian affairs.
The religious garb question has been
the subject of controversy since Com
' missioner Valentine issued an order
several months ago prohibiting members
’ of Catholic religious communities from
wearing their distinctive dress while
teaching in government Indian schools.
Mr. Valentine’s order subsequently was
suspended by President Taft, pending a
full hearing before Secretary Fisher.
Since the hearings were concluded Mr.
Valentine has denied a report that he
purposed to resign his commissioner
ship.
Secretary Fisher goes to Hawaii to in
vestigate charges preferred against the
administration of Territorial Governor

.'HE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, AUGUST 27, 1912.
“TWO PAIRS OF PINK PAJAMAS AND
A BLACK NECKTIE FOR CHRISTMAS”
The late Prof. James, of Harvard
University, wrote a treatise on “va
rieties of religious experience", and
he was a leader In the “American So
ciety for Psychological Research”.
His mind, strangely disposed with
reference to both the natural and the
supernatural after the manner of a
certain class of intellects, was in
clined in his later years to adopt a
species of spiritualism. According
ly, it was understood between him and
certain of his friends, who might sur
vive him. that he would endeavour to
communicate with them from the
spirit world. He has been dead near
ly two years, and during that period
his friends have had their ears cocked
(we can not say they have had their
“ears to the ground”) to caich the
first accents that he might drop upon
them. Recently they claim to have
received his first message, which
came to them through a boy who has
developed mediumistlc powers. The
message concerns a service which he
desires rendered to Professor Hyslop.
the Secretary of the American Society
for Psychological Research, and is as
follows: "I want you to give Hyslop
two pairs of pink pajamas and a
black necktie for Christmas”.
Now, that is a most interesting rev
elation! It is no wonder that two
years have been required for Prof.
James to make it up and get it
through. It carries with it, as any
one can see, the most interesting con
sequences. We now know that pink
ranks high in the spirit world, as the
proper colour for pajamas and that
black is the modish thing there in the
matter of neckties! This is far*more
important than any communication
concerning the prevailing, or pros
pective styles, in Paris. It is not quite
clear whether in the district from
which Prof. James speaks, in un
earthly but kindly tones to his friends,
gentlemen wear any other apparel
than pink pajamas and black neck
tie*; or if he desires Prof. Hyslop to
limit his raiment to that amount of
apparel in the latitude of Boston at
the merry season of Christmas. But
it is evident that Christmas is cele
brated where Prof. James is, and
that presents are sent to friends as
men are wont to do here below. Let
us hope it is celebrated in a per
fectly "sane” way, with nothing in
dulged more dangerous to health than
“pin- pajamas and black neckties”.
What a pitiful outcome is all this
ridiculous stuc! And this Is the last
discovery of the "Society for Psycho
logical Research”,—its latest "variety
of religious experience”. The figure
of the mountain labouring to give
birth to a mouse is scarcely adequate
to express the case of a pretentious
circle, too scientific to accept with
out qualification the .ioly Scriptures,
and yet whose members can accept
without question puerile request
as a communication from the spirit
ual world.
It is the invariable characteristic
of the skeptical age that it runs to
credulity. Such was the case in
France when all sorts of infidelity
was rife in that land. Jesus and
the apostles were rejected by multi
tudes who ran wildly after the Sicil
ian imposter, Cagliostro, and the Ger
man trickster, Mesmer. Sir Edward
Bulwer-Lytton has pointed out with
great clearness and force how that,
during that age of doubt and revolu
tion in France, the leaders of atheism
became the victims *of superstition.
Such is always the case; when Saul
loses his hold on Jehovah he runs
eagerly to the witch of Endor.
It has been supposed that our day
is a period of doubt, and beyond

question there is much rationalism
prevalent in the land. Some pulpits
even have been submerged by the
waves of scepticism which have
swept over the world. It is not sur
prising, therefore, that we see the
attendant credulity which always
goes along with such currents.
In and about Harvard University
there has been much scepticism of
one sort and another. It will be re
membered that the Emeritus-Presi
dent, Dr. Eliot, made a deliverance a
few years ago concerning the religion
of the future, in which he showed
that he had virtually renounced most
of the distinctive teachings of Chris
tianity, and had taken up with the
vague sort of system which was less
Christian than Unitarianism even. He
is a fair exponent of the state of
things about Cambridge, and we see
what that condition brings forth in
the end, —messages purporting to be
from the spirit world and containing
nothing better than a request that
pink pajamas and a black necktie be
tlie Christmas present of Prof. Hys
lop!
If those conditions were as wide as
our whole country, what sort of a re
ligious life would prevail all over the
land? Could such a state supply the
moral force required to preserve the
spiritual life of the nation? Can such
a state impel or qualify tffiie man to
go as a foreign missionffhy to the
heath? Nither superstitious rational
ism nor rationalistic superstition has
power enough to strengthen men for
the serious tasks of modern life. We
must look to something more solid
and sensible.
A certain class of people have been
taken off their feet by the specious
plausibilities of some rationalists,
and they should be warned in time
before they are delivered hopelessly
into the pits and quagmires of suepr
stition. Indeed, it is to be feared
that some have already become as
superstitious as Professors James
and Hyslop. What is the meaning of
the horde of palmists, gypsies, and
fortune-tellers, whose advertisements
fill the newspapers and whose tents
infest the cities? They are reaping a
revenue from men and women, who,
having lost faith in Christ, are ready
to accept any fable, whether cun
ningly or clumsily devised. Their de
luded patrons cannot do otherwise;
for an invincible necessity forces
them to seek some light outside and
about themselves. They cannot rid
themselves of the disposition to lean
on the spiritual world; and having
thrown away the scriptures, they run
tofffciese degraded teachers who claim
knowledge of things invisible. Let
no man suppose that the patrons of
these Impostors are the ignorant and
uneducated classes only; a far great-

er number of the "cultured" resort to
them than the number of the unlet
tered who seek their guidance. Our
rationalists have prepared the way
for these fakirs to reach some of the
people who assume to be most intel
lectual. A man who pours his doubts
out whenever he enters the pulpit Is
adopting the most direct and effect
ual method for sending a certain
number of his parishioners to the
palmist's tent: eventually he may be
found there himself. A preacher con
sulting a palmist would not be a‘
more strange or a more ridiculous
thing than a professor accepting a
message as a genuine communication
Trom the spirit world which mention
ed nothing more important than a
Christmas present of pink pajamas
and a black necktie.
The revelation of the spiritual
world, which Is found in the Holy
Scriptures, is enough to show men
the way of life, and that is suf
ficient for all our needs. It was
never designed to gratify a peep
ing curiosity, or to resolve all
mysteries. To one of old who .vas
disposed to claim that light was
wanting to his five brethien,
although they had the writings of
Moses and the prophets, the an
swer was given. “If they hear not
Moses and the prophets, they would
not believe, though one rose from
the dead.” This is quite true; for
One has risen from the dead, evin
Jesus Christ the Son of the living
God, and yet learned professors
doubt the resurrection of Jesus and
accept messages about pink pa
jamas and black neckties purport
ing to be from the spirit world.
if Professor James, or any one
else, who has died, should speak to
their former friends in the earth,
they could not tell more that is
true about the spiritual world than
Jesus has already revealed: and if
they contradicted what Jesus has
revealed, we would know that they
were lying spirits. St. Paul wrote
to the Galatian Christians,
"Though we, or an angel from
heaven, preach any other gospel
unto you than that which we have
preached unto you. let him be
accursed.” He spoke thus strongly
because he claimed to be an in
spired apostle, "not from men,
neither through man, but through
Jesus Christ, and God, the Father.
Who raised Him from the dead.”
(Galatians 1:1.) If the apostle to
the Gentiles bad been uncertain
about the revelation which he nad
received, he would have been quite
ready to listen to one pretending to
be an angel, and mimicking angelic
powers; but knowing that the light
which he followed came to him
from the highest possible source, he
was ready to reject with all
vehemence any false light which
might challenge his attention. Men
who doubt the inspiration of apos
tles and prophets and distrust the
divine message sent to our world
through the Holy Scriptures are
perpetually deluding themselves by
their vain efforts to eavesdrop the
heavenly world and catch secrets
which God has not seen best to re
veal. They get nothing but self
deception for all their pains.
The spiritualists and the psychi
cal research societies have never
added one new truth to the sum of
human knowledge, nor Inspired one
virtue, nor overcome one sin, by all
their . pretended communications
froip the spiritual world. On the
contrary, we may say of them what
the Hon. Thomas B. Reed is re
ported to have said of a certain
member of Congress, who served in
the House of Representatives while
Mr. Reed was the speaker of that
body: "Whenever he opens his
mouth he augments the sum of
human ignorance in the world.”
Let us turn away from the
rationalities and the fakirs, and
follow the light of God's word. It
will not lead us astray, and
although it may not teach us how
the heavens go, it will infallibly
show us how to go to heaven.

NEW YORK, Aug. 24.—Scores of gam
blers and keepers of disorderly houses
have suddenly found themselves suffer
ing from ill health and subpena servers
attached to D.strict Attorney Whitman’s
office said today that it was surprising
how many persons of the underworld had
found it necessary to leave the city at
this time.
Ten process servers invaded Broadway
in three automobiles to serve subpenas
to appear in the John Doe proceedings
to Inquire into police graft. Only four
of the men-for whom subpenas had been
issued were found. Scores of others for
whom subpenas were issued, it was learn
ed, had left the city for various health
resorts.
Emery R. Buckner, counsel for the al
dermanic investigating committee into
police corruption, today made it clear
that no person would be permitted to
testify before the committee, who ought
to pe arraigned on a criminal charge. Mr.
Buckner said: ,
"It will be the duty of counsel to
find out in advance what a witness knows
and then have him testify. It will not
be possible for a witness to get testimony
into the record that will give him im
munity from a criminal charge.”

Judge Charlton Overrules De- •
murrer-Case Goes to y*
Trial
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.) Mt
SAVANNAH, Ga., Aug. 24.—Judge
Walter G. Charlton in the superior court ~
this morning overruled the demurrer of 2’*
the trustees of the University of Geor- *
gia In the Brantley A. Denmark will
case and decided that the clause of the
will giving the fee simple title to the
property to the university at Mrs. Den
mark’s death was void, and ordered the j.
case to trial on its merits.
The demurrer that Mrs. Denmark was
estopped from attempting to break the
will because she had waited for eleven
years was overruled and the action or
dered to proceed.
Judge Charlton in his opinion stated, * 1
that while he had to follow the law ,
laid down by the supreme court, if he ' ■» .
followed his own convictions he would 1 J J
have rendered an adverse opinion. 3
Judge Denmark left his wife a lifo w
estate in his $150,000 estate and then to ;-”
the University of Georgia.
Mrs. Denmark a year ago began pro*-
ceedings to break this clause of the will* 72
claiming that it worked to the exalusion <
of the wife and children and against the ■'
law which declares that not more than .
one-third of an estate can be left to a. *2?
charitable institution, to the exclusion -it
of the wife and children.
