Cottolene
makes delicious biscuit
ROCKVILLE ACADEMY, GEORGIA'S
FIRST STANDARD RURAL SCHOOL
- Cottolene “creams up” so
beautifully that it makes deli
cious biscuits—light, flaky,
ufree from grease and soggi-
~ness. They almost,melt in
your mouth.
Cottolene is the perfect
shortening—a vegetable pro-
' duct without the possible taint
of animal fat It is far better
and more wholesome than
lard. It vail give equally as
good shortening results as
butter, and Cottolene is usu
ally one-third
butter’s price.
Here’s an
other econo
my point:
Cottolene,
being richer,
use one-third
less than eith
er butter or
lard.

A
Chairman of Democratic Com
mittee Declines Place in
Wilson's Cabinet
BT RALPH SMITH.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.—There is a
whole lot being said and guessed in
this neck - of the woods about the fu
ture of William F. McCombs, National
Chairman of the Democratic party by
grace of President-elect Wilson.
Most of this guessing has had to do
with the question whether he would be
come a member of the Wilson cabinet
that is soon to be announced.
It is stated definitely and»specifical
ly now that Mr. McCombs will not be
a member of the cabinet. President
elect Wilson, recognizing the work of
Mr. McCombs on his behalf, both be
fore and after the Baltinmre conven
tion, has offered him a cabinet port
folio.
The governor, it is stated here, has
Mr. McCombs declination. Just why
■ nou accept the tender is
Znot known, for a certainty. There
-have been a number of reasons advanc
ed, but they lack the stamp of author
ity.
Georgians who are familiar with the
history of Rockville academy—and they
are scattered all over the state, many
of the former graduates of this school
being numbered among the leading edu
cators and professional men of this
grand old commonwealth—will not be
surprised to learn that it wjfts the first
of the rural schools to reach Jhe stand
ard prescribed last year by the state
board of education.
A handsome certificate, indicating
that Rockville academy has attained the
degree of proficiency and efficiency
necessary to qualify it as a standard
school has just been mailed to Hon.
W. C. Wright, superintendent of the
Putnam county schools, by Hon. M. L.
Brittain, state superintendent of schools,
and along with the certificate, which is
inscribed “No. 1,” go letters of congrat
ulation from Superintendent Brittain to
Superintendent Wright and to Prof. F.
G. Branch, principal of the Rockville
academy.
It is a real honor that has been won
by the Rockville academy, which has
long been the pride of Putnam county.
This fact is appreciated when it is
known that Georgia is the second state
to adopt a standard for its rural schools
—Illinois being the first—and Rock
ville acadenw th© first school in Geor
gia to attain this standard.
Rockville academy is a “truly rural”
school, being located eleven miles from
Eatonton, which is the nearest railroad
station. Twenty-two years ago, when
Prof. Branch took charge of it, this
school was housed in a commonplace
two-room structure and was doing but
indifferent work in what was known
as the “dark corner” of Putnam county.
Many of the school’s patrons in those
days could not rekd and write, others
could barely do so, while a minority
had such education as had been acquired
in the old field schools operating for
a few months in the year. There were
only five persons in the district who
had ever attended college and two of
these were ladies.
Since that time the community has
progressed until now the country round
^bout is settled with dozens and dozens
7 of college graduates and retirement
and culture are found on every hand.
In address before the state asso
ciation of county school commissioners
and boards of educators at Athens, Prof.
H. R. Dejarnette gave the following
interesting comparison of the work of
AMERICAN SHOT BY
MEXICAN SENTINEL
Agent of Los Angeles District
I Attorney's Office Dying in -
Mexic Bastile
(By Asscoiated Press.)
SAN DIEGO, Cal., Feb. 11.—Roy E.
-Rankin, agent of the Los Angeles coun-
pty district attorney’s office who was
shot at Tijunia, Saturday night, is said
- by his physician to have only a fight-
- ing chance for recovery. He is still held
J by the Mexican authorities at Tijunia.
Guy L. Rockwell, from the same office,
is with Rankin, but is not under ar
rest.
It developed today that the two men
j^went to the Mexican settlement on a
T^secret mission for S. D. Fredericks,
*^the Los Angeles county district at
torney.
*! United States Consul Guyant left for
'Ensana by steamer last night. He de
clared he would make a formal demand
on the governor of Lower California
for the immediate release of Rankin.
Rankin and Rockwell adhere to their
story that the shooting was unprovok
ed. The Mexican version as related t>y
• Marquez, the soldier under arrest, is
that when he challenged them as a
sentry, they were abusive and that
'Rockwejl ktiocked him down, took his
rifle and threw it away. Marquez says
.that Rockwell and Rankin then ran
'^away. He recovered his gun and fired
■Cthe shot that struck Rankin.
A DIFFERENCE
It Paid This Man to Change
Food
“What is called ‘good living’ even
tually brought me to a condition quite
-the reverse of good health,” writes a
Y. merchant.
Z “Improper eating told on me till my
stomach became so weak that food nau
seated me, even the lightest and sim-
* .pleat lunch, and I was much depressed
after a night of uneasy slumber, unfit
ting me for business.
“This condition was discouraging, as
I could find no way to improve it.
Then 1 saw the advertisement of Grape
Nuts food, and decided to try it, and
became delighted with the result.
“For the past three years I have
used Grape-Nuts and nothing else for
my breakfast and for lunch before re
tiring. It speedily set my stomach
right and I congratulate myself that I
have regained my health. There is no
greater comfort for a tired man than a
lunch of Grape-Nuts. It insures restful
V"sleep, and an awakening in the morning
with a feeling of buoyant courage and
hopefulness.
“Grape-Nuts has been a boon to my
whole family. It has made of our 2
year-old boy, who used to be unable to
digest much of anything, a robust,
healthy, little rascal weighing 32 pounds.
Mankind certainly owes a debt of grati
tude to the expert who invented this
: perfect food.” Name given by Postum

AMERICANS FLEE AS
' THE BATTLE RAGES
Fire of Artillery Continues All
Day, With No Advantage
on Either Side
(By Associated Press.)
CARS ORDERED READY
TO TRANSPORT TROOPS
SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Feb.
12.—The Union Pacific railroad
has been advised to hold suffi
cient equipment on hand to take
troops from here to Galveston
on short notice. Coaches, stock-
cars and freight cars are now
being gathered In the local
yards.
Estimates are that 186 cars
will be needed in case troops
are sent from here to Galves
ton.

MEXICO CITY, Feb. 12.—An Ameri
can woman named Mrs. Homes was
killed while the battle was raging at
2 o’clock this afternoon.
Both lege of another American
woman, a Mrs. Griffith, were shot off
while she was preparing dinner in her
home which was in line with th e fed
eral firing.
MEXICO CITY, Feb. 12.—Americans
and other foreigners living in the Mex
ican capital found themselves' in a
desperate situation today. The foreign
residential and commercial district lay
in the direct line of artillery fire from
both rebel and federal positions.
AMERICANS IN TRAP.
Many people who had taken refuge
in the more important buildings found
themselves penned in while heavy
shells whistled about them, tearing
through walls and roofs. The cable
offices were severely damaged by shrap
nel and it was feared that communica
tion with the outside world might be
temporarily cut off.
> All surrounding streets were occupi
ed by troops and throughout the morn
ing the whir of the machine guns was
continuous while infantrymen kept up
a constant rifie fire.
NO ADVANTAGE YET.
Neither side gained any perceptible
advantage up to noon, when plans for
a conference between the leaders of the
rebels and representatives of the gov
ernment were takenu p for discussion,
at the national palace after a visit
to Madero by the American ambassador
and the German minister.
CRIMINALS FREED.
From the Madero point of view, two
of the most serious of the day’s de
velopments were the releasing by rebels
of 5,000 criminals from the city prison,
and the arrival In the city of Alfonso
Miranga, one of Zapatista s lieutenants,
with a band of 300 soldiers who are
said to have plotted the wholesale loot
ing of the capital.
FOOD SCARCE.
Meanwhile the scarcity of provisions
is already causing suffering among the
poorer classes. Ordinary food is obtain
able only in small quantities and then
at prices from five to ten times the
usual rate.
AMERICAN DEMANDS PEACE.
The United States ambassador, Henry
Lane Wilson, and the German minister
went to the national palace this after
noon to demand from President Madero
• that the battle cease immediately.
Plans for a conference between the
leaders of the rebel-s and representa
tives of the government were taken into
discussion at the national palace shortly
after noon.
CONFERENCE CALLED OFF.
Hopes of a conference soon diminished.
There was a cessation of firing but this
appeared to be due to a change in the
federal positions, and was regarded by
the federals as a trick to draw them
out. '
The bulk of the government troops are
stationed in the northwestern part of
the city.
the Rockville academy for the vears
1891 and 1909:
98 PER CENT ENROLLMENT.
Through its effective work the Rock
ville academy has enrolled more and
more of the pupils in its vicinity until
last year more than 98 per cent of the
children in its district were in school,
a record surpassing that of any city or
town in the state. This academy has
three teachers, including the principal.
The patrons of the school willingly sub
mit to extra taxation in order that the
institution may continue its excellent
work throughout nine months of each
year.
Perhaps the most important thing
which Mr. Brittain has done since he
became state superintendent of schools
two years ago was to prepare a stand
ard for rural schools and secure its
adoption by the state board of educa
tion. This standard is designed to
show the patrons of the schools and the
public generally, as well as the school
officials, just what the schools are doing
and whether or not they ar e giving
value received for the money expended
upon them.

Are You Subject
to Constipation
HI
rs
p
200 Salesmen
at Once.
Here fs a Simple Way of Cor
recting it Instantly Before
it Becomes Chronic
Very few people go through life with
out some time or other being troubled
with constipation. Thousands injure
themselves by the use of strong ca
thartics, salt mineral waters, pills and
similar things. They have temporary
value in some cases, it is true, but the
good effect is soon lost, and the more
one takes of them the less effective
they become.
A physic or purgative is seldom neces
sary, and much better and more per
manent results can be obtained by using
a scientific remedy like Dr. Caldwell’s
Syrup Pepsin. It does not hide behind
a high sounding name, but is what it is
represented to be, a mild laxative medi
cine. It is so mild that thousands of
mothers give it to tiny infants, and yet
it is compounded, and contains such
definite ingredients that it will have
equally good effect when used by a per
son suffering from the worst chronic
constipation. In fact, among the great
est endorsers of Syrup Pepsin are eld
erly people who have suffered for years
and found nothing to benefit them until
they took Syrup Pepsin.
It is a fact that millions of families
have Syrup Pepsin constantly in the
house, homes like those of Mrs. G. B.
Pruitt, Berea, Ky., who used Dr. Cald
well’s Syrup Pepsin as a laxative tonic.
Mrs. Pruitt writes that it so strength
ened and cleansed her system that she
was quickly relieved of a severe cough
which had troubled her for months. The
special, value of this grand laxative ton
ic is that it is suited to the needs of
every member of the family. It is

pleasant-tasting, mild and non-griping.
Unlike harsh physics it works gradually
and in a very brief time the stomach
and bowel muscles are trained to do
their work naturally again, when all
medicines can be dispensed with.
You can obtain a bottle at any drug
store for fifty cents or one dollar. The
latter size is usually bought by families
who already know its value. Results
are always guaranteed or money will be
refunded.
If no member of your family has ever
used Syrup Pepsin and you would like
to make a personal trial of it before
buying it in the regular way of a drug
gist, send your address—a postal will
do—to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 425 Wash

sample bottle will be mailed you.

ever manufactured.
The illustration shows exact size of
the knife. Besides the large blade,
which is two and three-fourths inches
long, this knife has a smaller punch or
blade two and one-eighth inches long, and cuts
round hole, any size, in leather, with ease.
Both blades are of finest tempered tool steel,
finely ground and polished. You have paid $1.00
or $1.50 for a knife not as good as this one.
The EXCELSIOR WONDER KNIFE is built for
practical use, not filled with Nic-Naes, as is the
case with most combination knives. Especial care
is taken to make the knife sufficiently strong for
use of Farmers, Stockmen, Teamsters and Sports
men. It is no more clumsy or awkward to carry
in the pocket than an ordinary three-bladed knife.
The Leather Punoh will be found indispensable
for making various sized holes in leather for
buckles, rivets, belt lacing, etc.
The Leather Punch aots as a swedging awl or
marlin spike when turned to the left; especially
adapted for use in lacing belts, untying knots, etc.
This knife is a marvel of mechanical ingenuity,
embodying every essential element, viz: Simplici
ty, Convenience, Durability, Smoothness and
Strength.
By special arrangements with the manufac
turers we are getting this Knife at a price where

scription to THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY
