GIRLS! GIRLS! YOU MOST SURELY TRY THIS!
IT DOUBLES THE BEftUTY OF
All you need is a 25 cent b ottle of "Danderine” -
gets lustrous, fluffy and abundant at once.
Hair
Immediate?—Yes! Certain?—that’s
the jay of it. Your hair becomes light,
•wavy, fluffy, abundant and appears
as soft, lustrous and beautiful as a
ycung girl’s a*ter a Danderine hair
cleanse. Just try this—moisten a cloth
with a little Danderine and carefully
draw it through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time. This will cleanse
the hair of dust, dirt or excessive oil
and in just a few moments you have
doubled the beauty of your hair.
A delightful surprise awaits, partic
ularly those who have been careless,
whose hair has been neglected or is
scraggy, faded, dry, brittle or thin. Be
sides beautifying the hair, Danderine
dissolves . every particle of dandruff;
cleanses, purifies and invigorates the
scalp, forever stopping itching and fall
ing hair, but what will please you most
will be after a few weeks’ us£ of Dan
derine, - when you will actually see new
hair—fine and downy at first—yes—but
really new hair growing all over the
scalp. If you care for pretty, soft hair,
and lots of it; surely get a 25 cent bottle
of Knowlton’s Danderine from any drug
store or toilet counter and just try it.

DEPARTED FRIENDS.
SVe hear the dip of the golden oars
♦And catch a gleam of the snowy sail,
And, lo, they have passed from our
yearning hearts;
They cross the stream and are gone
for aye.
We may not sunder the veil apart
That hides from our vision the gates
of day;
We only know that their bark no more
May sail with us o’er life’s stormy sea.
These lines came with peculiar force
to my mind in thinking of the “passing
over” of two of my childhood friends,
who were at the same time two of
Georgia’s most distinguished women. I
allude to Mrs. H. C. White, of Athens,
and to Mrs. Livingston Mims, who was
buried last Sunday in the 'city of At
lanta. Both were so well known to the
people of Georgia and in other states
that I would be only repeating words of
praise that have been sounded already,
time and again. They were noble and
true.
We heard “the dip of the golden oars”
In the case of Mrs. Mims, who had been
an invalid for several months, but Mrs.
White’s sudden death in Augusta was
a shock to even those most familiar
with her daily life.
In the midst of zeal and activity, with
no warning whatever, she passed so
quickly from yearning hearts that her
nearest and dearest were unaware of
any danger before she “had crossed the
ocean and w r as gone for aye.”
I had a very close friend, who died
over three years ago, who passed to the
beyond while he was looking into my
jyes and holding my hand. We had
been voyaging together “o’er life’s
stormy sea” for nearly sixty years, and
he knew my thoughts, as I well knew
his. His departure was beautiful in ifs
peace and serenity, and he knew he was
going and wanted me to “stay close”
—Since that time Death has nev
er seemed so appalling to me. While
I could not “sunder the veil apart,” I
was near enough to see the smile of
peace and joy that irradiated the dying
face, after I was left on the outside
io far as he was concerned. Our Heav
enly Father’s tender mercies wer,e free
ly given in that parting hour of stress
and strain, and the end was peace,
beautiful peace.
A PLAY IN POLITICS.
The bill that passed the senate to
make one-term presidents, has some
comic features attached to it.
Whenever the public becomes satisfied
that some one individual is aimed at,
a spirit of resistance is born instanter.
There will be two ex-presidents after
March 4th, and Mr. Wilson is likely
willing to succeed himself, despite this
one-term legislation. So there will be
an issue joined at once, and the fun will
begin.
Mr. Taft cannot ever expect to run
again, so the contention will lie be
tween Woodrow and Teddy, for the
c^pmaign of 1916, ana Woodrow’s
friends are not going to shelve him,
whatever happens. It will need some
hair-splitting tactics to make Teddy
take a back seat, under such circum
stances, and there is nothing so potent
In politics as a well-established griev
ance, that can be elaborated on the
stump, by skilful politicians and to
arouse resentment. \
Nevertheless, one-term for presidents
is manifestly right and proper. It
would divest the office of ten thousand
harassments in curbing partisan strife
and the clamor of applicants. The bane
Df a congressman’s life is the persistent
clamor of office seekers. And it is his
friends, not his enemies, which annoy
nis peace of mind. Multiply his vex
ations by ten thousand or maybe ten
times that number and you will begin
to understand the bane of a president’s
life. Everybody flatters him, and his
adherents buzz around hi to get pa
tronage until the position is full of
worry tb his ind and body. It has
ahortfened - the days of the great ma
jority of ex-presidents find since the
war four of those elected to the office
have been made the victims of an as
sassin’s bullet. All were victims of
anarchist hate and tnere has been no
percentage of motrality so great among
classes as this death rate among pres
idents. If the single term o ce can
lessen the danger and secure less ve
hemence to political campaigns we may
rest assured it will be a long step for
ward .to better conditions in politics.
JEWEL THIEVES.
I read of a woman in yesterday’s
newspaper who was traveling to London
on a great ocean liner, and who de
clared she had been robbed of $2,000,
in jewels. The captain and all the
people around went to searching for
the woman’s jewels, and finally they
were discovered in her muff where she
had placed them herself. This was a
rare case of good luck as well as a
very common case of forgetfulness on
the part of the owner.
But jewel robbers are amazing plen
tiful if the every day reports are to
be fully credited.
I always did wonder, why people who
had costly jewels were apparently so
careless with them, especially when
traveling. When a fortune in gems is
displayed, the opportunity Is great for
burglars an-5 thieves, especially in chanc
ing halls, where the owner may dis
place them during violent exercise. I
suppose those who have them feel con
strained to show them—so we may ex
pect to hear of diamond thefts—as long
as diamonds are thus exhibited. Blessed
therefore ‘‘am they that ’spects noth-
ing, because dey hab nothin’.” Thou
sands of people, like myself, can go on
a trip—quite secure in the knowledge
that they will not be suspicioned of
owning costly jerms; and per contra, I
can suppose that those who travel with
costly jewels lose many moments in
anxiety.
I saw somewhere, an account of the
value of jewels, that went down with
the Titanic. It went up into millions,
and so far as known they will only
display their brilliancy to deep sea fishes
and the, things which trail for dead
bodies.
All sorts of devices have been used
to secrete jewels about the person, but
the chances are nearly all against, safe
ty; and the number of lives which have
been sacrificed because jewel thieves
were after booty, perhaps, eternity alone
can tell.
REACH JURY FOREMAN
SAYS ‘TOO MUCH WATSO'
Declares There Was “Not
Enough Sherlocko” to Make
Case Serious
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
AIKEN, S. C., Feb. 8.—F. O. Beach
was acquitted Friday afternoon in tho
Aiken county court of the charge of as
saulting his wife. The jury was out ex
actly one hour and forty-five minutes.
Mr. Beach was not in the -court room
when the verdict was read, having gone
to lunch during the recess of court, but
he arrived a few minutes later and'at
once went to the jury box and shook
hands with members of the jury.
“There was absolutely nothing to the
case,” the foreman told Mr. Beach.
“There was too much ‘Watso’ and not
enough ‘Sherlocko.’ ”
Beach laughed gleefully and slapped
the foreman on the back. Mrs. Beach
did not return to the court room.
The foreman explained that the delay
in reaching a verdict was due to the
fact that one or two jurors wanted to
“discuss everything under the sun ex
cept the case.”
Mr. Beach shook hands with the judge,
donned his great fur coat and went to
join Mrs. Beach at the hotel.
There was no’ demonstration of any
kind whey the verdict was rendered.

DEIFYING THE BALLOT I fiy (Bishop
AND DETHRONING GOD I W. A. Canaler
In a meeting of reformers recently
held at Indianapolis, Ind., a man from
California was reported as saying, “God
will never settle the liquor question be
cause he has no vote.” This blasphe
mous utterance was made in support
of a proposition to separate the national
prohibition party from all church or
ganizations.
No one will object to the prohibition
party removing itself from asosciation
with any and all churches; for no
church lias ever been connected with it.
Individual members of all the churches
h8ve affiliated with that party, just
as ethers, have acted with the other po
litical paries; but no church has ever
endorsed the national prohibition party
nor asked to be endorsed by that party.
It seems a bft useless for these gentle
men to be engaged in an effort to sepa
rate their party from “all church or
ganizations” when it has never had any
connection with any church organiza
tion whatsoever, unless they mean to
expel from their party all church mem
bers -who have acted with them, and
this they can hardly intend.
But this wo,rse than flippant utterance
of one of them to the effect that “God
has no vote” is an illustration of a
prevalent fojly which deserves condem
nation. Multitudes in our ebuntry are
cverestimating the power of the ballot
box and underestimating the power of
Christ and His gospel. They are deify
ing the ballot and dethroning God.
It is not unnatural that people living
under a republican form of government
should attach importance to the fran
chise, but it is also very easy for them
to think it more potent and important
as a moral force than it really is. What
one relies on in every extremity Is
by such trust constituted his god, and
this over-trust of the ballot begins to
approach idolatry upon the part of some
people.
Moreover, it is a most shalolw and ab
surd idolatry, there being no facts of
history to justify it. The miserable
maxim of “vox populi est vox dei” is
contradicted by every page of history.
Majorities do not settle great moral is
sues. Minorities, made potent by Gcrd,
have overthrown all the wrongs which
have yet been conquered among men
and established all the right things
which have been victorious in the earth.
The cause of prohibition, for example,
has been advanced, not by the poli
ticians, but by the progress of moral
sentiment which has resulted from an
aggressive Christianity in our land. The
liquor interest cares very little for what
the leaders of the national prohibition
party do or say; but it takes notice
of the acts of the Christian churches
and he Christian ministry. But for the
churches there would be no prohibition
statutes and no potent temperance senti
ment in the United Sates. In coun-
ries where there is no Christianity, or
only a Christianity of a low type, there
is no movement of any sort for tem
perance reform. In all lands moral pro
gress of every kind waits on the coming
of the militant gospel of Christ.
In the first century, when the unvoting
Roman Empire stretched its authority
over the known world, Paul, the apostle
to the Gentiles, said, “I am not ashamed
of the gospel of Christ^ for it is the
power of God unto salvation”. Chris
tianity was then in its infancy, and the
power of the Roman Empire was at its
full strength. But the infant faith soon
triumphed over the dominant empire
without casting a ballot or unsheathing
a sword.
So little does Christ rely on political
forces to establish His kingdom among
men it was the suggestion of the devil
that he depend upon such forces which
he put away with the most vehe'mence
when he -was tempted in the wilderness.
“The devil taketh up into an exceeding
high mountain, and showed him all the
kingdoms of the world and the glory of
them; and said unto Him, All these
things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall
down artd worship me. Then saith
Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan:
for it is written, Thou shalt worship
the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt
thou serve.” Jesus refused the sug
gestion that he “stoop to conquer”,
knowing, as some seem not to know,
that he who stoops to conquer is really
conquered by stooping. He advanced to
his enthronement by way of the cross,
and not by way of a political messiah-
ship.
It is a thousand pities that so many
who profess and call themselves Chris
tian nowa-a-days do not follow the steps
of the Master in this regard. But they
act as if our ‘Lord were utterly power
less without the help of a majority vote
approving the laws of His kingdom and
the aid of the constabulary of the civil
government to execute his decrees.
Hence they make much of votes, and lit
tle of God’s power; and thereby they be
come atheistic reformers. Yet atheistic
reformers (and there have been many of
them) never have accomplished any
worthy and lasting good among men.
The fact is that this excessive de
pendence upon votes by the American
people has beep the ruin of many prom
ising reformations in politics even. Our
people have felt too often that when the
right has won at the ballot box, there
was* nothing more to be done; and they
have lost many a victory by falling
asleep on their arms from the soporific
en. Where these blind reformers most
abound “blind-tigers” do most prevail.
The best law in the world can not en
force itself. And the purest and most
effect of believing too much in the effect
of a vote. Permanent good is not so
easily won. Right is secured by eternal
vigilance.
Many in Georgia imagined that -when
the prohibition law was passed by the
Legislature and approved by the Gov
ernor, all liquor selling and all drunken
ness would instantly disappear from
state; but they find themselves mistak-
potent human authority can enforce
only partially the most wisely con
ceived statutes. With God only are
found perfect laws and perfect Judge
ment. Let us make the best govern
ment we can; but let us know at the
same time that all man-made systems,
whether made by the decrees of kings
or by the votes of popular majorities,
are but poor clumsy things ineffctual
for the accomplishment of the highest
good. The final civilization of the world
is not a government created and imposed
upon men by the votes of the majority,
but it is the New Jerusalem coming
down out of heaven from God. So John
saw it on Patmos, and his revelation
from Jesus Christ can be trusted as we
can not rrust the Visionary theories of
secular reformers who leave God out of
their plans “because He has no vote.”
(Revelation xxi:2).
This over-estimating the value of a
vote will at last lead men to despair
of good government and end in revolu
tion. Aristotle said government went by
cycles, and that in the end popular
government yielded to absolutism. That
may seem impossible to us, but it is not
so. When men have been disappointed
by universal suffrage and find irre
sponsible majorities working the most
republsive oppressions, they turn natu
rally to some strong man who by force
of arms proposes to put matters to
right. The “man on horse-baek” ♦natu
rally follows the frantic and conscience
less mob at the polls. No majority can
sanctify wrong; and a majority which
does wrong soon wearied of its own
wickedness. For a time majorities follow
the lead of the demagogues who flatter
them, and then they turn and rend these
wretches who have deceived them. Final
ly, utterly wearied with their vain ef
forts to get good government by voting,
they submit to the domination of some
strong man whom they trust to achieve
that which they have proved themselves
unable to accomplish. That is what
the trend towards commission govern
ment? in American cities means. It is
a symptom of distrust of popular gov
ernment upon the part of urban commu
nities. This distrust will deepen with
the extension of tbe right of suffrage;
for the more incompetent and untrust
worthy voters, who put ballots in a
box, the more doubtful are the chances
of good government.
The American people should abandon
this superstition of the ballot box, and
return to God. Their well-being is not
to be wrought out by the extension
of suffrage, but by the cultivation of
that heaven-born righteousness which
exalteth nations. They are not to be
saved by referendum, but by regenera
tions.
A revival of religion is more needed
in the United States than any and every
political reformation that visionaries can
conceive however benevolent.
Ministers of the gospel would do well
to give themselves to the work of
bringing to pass such a revival, rather
than to expending their energies on "so
cial” programmes and reform “move
ments.” The sinners in our midst make
’’the houses in our midst; and the saving
of sinners is .the supreme business of
Christ and His church.
It is time to call men back to God
when leaders in reform movements be
gin to speak of the Supreme Ruler of the
Universe contemptuously because “he
has no vote.” He with whom is all
power in heaven and in earth does not
need to be enfranchised by the petty
governments of men ^before He can work
the mighty and blessed ends of his di
vine kingdom.
Wilson Is His Own
Stenographer While
Drafting His Speech
(By Associated Press.)
PRINCETON, N. J., Feb. 8.—Presi
dent-elect Wilson today completed the
first draft of his inaugural address. He
acted as his owrf stenographer in pro
ducing the document. He began sketch
ing it in shorthand % on Thursday and
resumed the task today, copying the
notes himself on a little typewriter in
his studio. It is about 2,000 words
long, he said, but he may add to or
abbreviate it further.
“I haven’t looked up any of the other
inaugural addresses,” he said, “so I don’t
know whether this one is longer or
shorter.”
He indicated he was not quite satis
fied with the address and might change
it somewhat before giving it to the
newspapers for advance distribution.
The governor’s attention was called
to the report alleging that Senator Wil
liam Alden Smith of Michigan, had
charged democratic senators with having
been inspired by the president-elect to
block confirmation of Mr. Taft’s nomi
nations.
<‘Yes, I saw that report,” remarked
the governor but made no further com
ment.
The governor was told of the predic
tion in some quarters that the dispatch
of four warships to Central American
waters augured further disturbances in
Latin-America which might come to a
head in a few months.
“I am as yet uninformed about these
things;” he said.
The president-elect will spend Sun
day at home with his family.
Boy Scouts to Care
For Fainting Marchers
In Inaugural Parade
WASHINGTON, Feb. 8.—The Boy
Scouts will be given, an opportunity to
demonstrate the value of their training
on inauguration day. Between 500 and
600 Scouts will aid in taking care of
those who require medical assistance
either marchers or spectators.
Their special duty will be to wig-wag
for the ambulances. In addition eight
large Boy Scouts will act as litter
carriers with each ambulance.
Another aid to the hospital corps in
summoning help will be twenty-five tel
ephones along the parade route. These
will be connected by private telephone
wires with the police headquarters,
where the main first aid station will be
located.
At several points there will be other
emergency hospitals in charge of phy
sicians and trained nurses. One of
these will be near the large stand on
Pennsylvania avenue in front of the
White House and opposite the presi
dent’s reviewing stand. Another will
be near Union station and will care foi
passengers ( who may become ill on
trains.
FOR SIXTEEN YEARS MAN
SWALLOWS NO FOOD
Food Reaches Stomach by a
Glass Tube and Is Di
gested Perfectly
CHICAGO, Feb. 8.—Fred C. Vicok, who
for sixteen years has smallowechno food,
is giving aid to science through obser
vation .of his digestion process, accord
ing to Prof. W. J. Carlson, assistant in
the department of physiology at the
University of Chicago.
By means of a glass tube through
which an electric light is introduced
into the man’s stomach, Dr. Carlson
last night said he had been able to ob
serve and, photograph the food at every
stage during the process of digestion.
Since he was eleven years old Vicok
has taken food through a tube leading
from the abdomen into the stomach,
the oestophagus having been convpetely
closed when he swallowed a strong solu
tion. The man was found working at
his trade here as a barber several
months ago. Although it was intended
that only liquids should be taken
through the tube Vicok developed an ap
petite for meats and vegetables and
after masticating them, successfully in
troduced them into the stomach
through tbe tube.

Cure for Infantile
Paralysis Is Found,
So Doctors Claim
(By Associated Press.^
BUFFALO, Feb. 7.—The study of in
fant le paralysis during the epidemic
here last July has resulted in discoveries
which, it is claimed, will result in find
ing a cure for the disease, according to
health commissioner Fronczak. The dis
ease is caused by a germ which
is ultra-miscroscopic, a discov
ery resulting from experiments by Dr.
Simon Flexner and Dr. Hidego Noguchi,
of the Rockefeller Institute of fMedical
Research, made from cultures obtained
during th e epidemic here. The virus re
suiting from the germ has been discov
ered, however* and from this a cure can
be worked out, it is claimed.
“These experiments,” said Dr. Fronc
zak, “will greatly assist the medical
scientists in battling with the malady.
Washings from the mouths and noses of
children afflicted with the disease here
were taken to the Rockefeller institute,
these affected monkeys inoculated to
found that the filtrate always brought
out the same characteristics of the dis
ease. Filtrate of th e spinal cord of
Monkeys were inoculated and it was
other monkeys resulted in the same ef
fect.
“It was discovered that the virus will
go through the nest filters and even
porcelain. By the identification of the
virus a tremendous advance in the ulti
mate arrest of the disease has' been
made. It is now a settled fact that the
stable fly is responsible for the spreadi
ng of the germs. We are now planning
to eliminate every possible danger and
the key to the elimination will be the
wiping out of the stable fly.”

SPRING LAMB SELLS
FOR $1 PER POUND
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, Feb. 8.—House
wives who visited the Center market
this morning uttered cries of dismay on
discovering that spring lamb of the crop
of 1913 was retailing at $1 a pound.
This would make a leg of lamb cost
from $6 to $8, and the price is said to
be the highest ever recorded at this
time of the year.
The “trimmings” that generally ac
company the scculent spring lamb,
mint and green peas, retailed at 10
cents a bunch, and 16 cents a quart, re
spectively. Prices of nearly all com
modities are advancing, and dealers
regard the outlook for any decline in
the -immediate future as not encour
aging.

teen years from organic inflammation,
female weakness,
pain and irregulari
ties. The pains in

rary relief. I decided to give Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound a fair
trial and also the Sanative Wash. I have
now used the remedies for four months
and cannot express my thanks for what
they have done for me.
