WEIRD JAGS.
Every prohibition town seems to
have its own special drink. Some
times these are worse than whis
key, the redeeming feature being
that it Is not used to the extent that
the more civilized ~ beverages are.
In Thomasville people who feel that
they must have some ardent spirits
and who cannot obtain whiskey,
drink alcohol. This goes by the
familiar name of A K, or "White
Rock.” Sometimes it Is drank with
jrater, or mixed ^wlth soda water,
sarsapai Ilia, coca cola, cider, the re
sulting mixture being known as
"splosh." It will produce a weird
and wondrous Jag, too. If the evi
dence heard at ocdaslonal sessions of
police court may be believed.
Over in Waycross they call it
“Juice.” The Juice is shipped out In
bottles from Savannah Jobbers, com
ing there from northern manufac
turers. It is labelca as “pure un
fermented grape-juice for medicinal
purposes” or with some equally face
tious name. The bottles come about
half full, and the dealers fill them up
with alcohol. The other day a<
Juice-fiend shot down his wife while
sbe stood with her baby in her arms,
killing both. The mayor of Waycross
promptly revoked the license of all
dealers who were known to sell
Juice. This was praiseworthy act
ion, but It would have been much

February Is a month of holidays,

particular Interest to the school
children, and that we hope will l>e

cises at the school.
Tuesday, February t2th, marks
the 175th mile stone In the progreia
of the state of Georgia. Just that
many years ago the Commonwealth
of Georgia was founded, and when
the anniversary falls on the 13th,
appropriate exercises will be held
throughout the state In commemora
tion of the day. State School Com
missioner W. B. Merritt has heard
from many source* that Georgia
day U the 12th Is sailed, would be
generally observed.

sued by Commissioner Merritt, and
placed ln the hands of the teachers
of the state, many helpful sugges-
hnvo been mad* In regard to an
attractive program for the Georgia
Day exercises.
In many schools the exercises will
consist of a comparison of the set-
ilments of - e-. sylvanla aad Geor
gia, s study being made of William
Penh and Oglethorpe, their motives
ln founding the colonies and the iu-
te:est enlist 1 In each by the people
at home. The pupils will Also study
the characterof the people who came
over, the difficulties of the Indians,
their forks of colonial government
and the growth and prosperity of the
two colonies up to the present time.
Another subject for the day’s ex
ercises In the schools as suggested
by Commissioner Merritt is the study

The Limit of Life.
The moat eminent medical scien
tists are unanimous In the conclus
ion that the generally accepted limi
tation of human life is many years
below the attainment possible with
the advanced knowledge of which
the race Is now possessed. The
critical period, that determines its
duration, seems to be between 50
and 60; the proper care of the body
during this decade cannot be too
strongly urged; carelessness then be
ing fatal to longevity. Nature's
best helper after 60 Is Electric Bit

that revitalizes every organ of the
body. Guaranteed by all druggists.
