WITCKES AND f AIRIES
ARE ABROAD TONIGHT
Tis Hallowe'en With All
Its Mysteries.
"Tonight is the night of all the year |
reserved for fairies, witches and little
sprites. Its also the time when the
voting people can get a glimpse, in
looking glasses and springs, of their
future life partners. The evening has
never been generally observed in Am
erieus and it is unlikely that there
will be many Hallowe'en parties. But I
in England and many sections of this j
country it is looked forward to with j
delight.
Tomorrow is All Saints Day, and on
the night previous the fairies and un
seen denizens of the atmosphere are
supposed to hold high carnival and
terhaps come more nearly revealing
hemselves to mortals than on any
-.other night of the year.
Bobby Burns gives many Hallowe’en
customs in his poem of the same:
name. Among the Scotch peasantry
he young people begin the festivi
ties by going into a patch of kail and j
with eyes shut selecting a stalk. Its
size and general appearance is sup
posed to betoken the coming mate.
The burning of nuts is a famous
charm, according to the poet. By
going alone to a looking glass with a i
ighted candle and combining her hair j
before it the maiden can see the face of j
.her future husband peering over her
shoulder.
In this country the night is celebrat- j
ed with games and sports. Seizing |
with the teeth apples bobbing in tubs j
of water is a favorite amusement, j
-while the pumpkin with candle inside j
is a part of every well regulated Hal
lowe'en party. In some instances the
pranks of the boys, especially at
boarding schools, are imbued with the
spirit of fun which leads them often
’into trouble the next day w’hen their
misdeeds are discovered.
Perhaps one of the most beautiful
of the observances tonight will be at
-Albany, N. Y„ where Titania will- be
crowned Queen of the Fairies. The j
Queen will have an escort of 500 J
■mights and ladies and the keys of the j
■ity will be given Her Majestv.
Hard Tunes Vn Kansas.
The old days of grasshoppers and
drouth are almost forgotten in the
prosperous Kansas of today; although
a citizen of Codell, Earl Shamburg,
has not yet forgotten a hard time he
encountered. He says: “I was worn
out and discouraged by coughing night
and day, and could find no relief till
I tried Dr. King’s New Discovery.
It took less than one bottle to com
pletely cure me.’’ (The safest and
nest reliable cough and cold cure and

Henry E. Jones of Tampa, Fla., i
writes: “I can thank God for my |
present health, due to Foley’s Kideny j
Cure. I tried doctors and all kinds j
of kidney cures, but nothing done me j
much good till I took Foley’s Kid- |
ney Cure. Four bottles cured me, I
and I have no more pain in my back I
and shoulders. I am 62 years old, j

ADDRESS ON TEDDY'S
LETTER TOO STRONG
Indianapolis Editor Will be
on Trial.
INDIANAPOLIS, IND., October 30. ;
(Special)—Charged with sending de-I
famatory and libelous matter through
the mails, in that he addressed a let
ter to “Teddy Bombastes Furioso, Ex
ecutive Mansion, Washington,” Char- \
les M. Dyer, editor of the Mirror, will;
appear before a United States grand ,
jury early next n onth.
The journal •-lllished by D/e* m n
! advocacy of scientific eugem •«. or
! improvement of the race by methods
similar to those advocated by ad
herents of the free love cult. Dyer is
also a socialist. The letter has not
been opened, the offense being in the
address itself. Dyer declares he wiU
“rot in jail” rather than recant his j
opinion of the president.
Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot I
reach the diseased portion of the
i ear. There is only one way to cure ;
deafness, and (hat is by constitutional j
remedies. Deafness is caused by an i
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When ;
tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed,
deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caus
ed by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for cir
culars free. F. J. CHENEY & CO.,

HUSBAND AIDED
WIFE TO “AFFINITY”
PHILADELPHIA, PA., Oct. 30.
(Special)—More amazing even than
the renunciation of Mrs. Frederick
Earle has been that of Wallace Miller,
a carpenter, of this city. After striv
ing by kindness and argument for five
years to dissuade his wife from going
West to join an affinity in Salt Lake
City, he reluctantly agreed to her de
parture, sold household furniture to
provide her with funds for the trip
and accompanied her and a son, who
went with her, to the railroad station.
No ‘‘artistic temperament” gives an
excuse for this peculiar situation. The
departure of the woman is the climax
of a love affair which began twenty
years ago in the village of Pine Bush,
N. Y., where lived Miller, Charles
Smith and Carrie Wells. Playmates
from early childhood, Miller and the
girl married in their teens. Tonight,
with his 11-year-old daughter and a
son a little older, he sits in his home a
desolate man.
When Smith was 16 he left Pine
Bush and went west. He was engag-
I ed to marry Carrie Wells, but her fam
i ily disliked him, and, it is said, inter
| cepted his letters to the girl. Finally
j the girl believed Smith dead. Two
| years later she married Miller.
A Criminal Attack.
j on an inoffensive citizen is frequent
| ly made in that apparently useless
little tube called the “appendix.” It’s
| generally the result of protracted con
; stipation, following liver torpor. Dr.
King’s New Life Pills regulate the
liver, prevent appendicitis, and es
' tablish regular habits of the bowels,

The statement is made that many
i native New Yorkers never have seen a
| hog, but this ignoring of a certain
| class of subway passengers is flattery.

THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 31. 1907
CORNELL'S PRESIDENT
TAVORS LESS EXPENSE
Liberal Education Becoming
Monopoly of Rich.
ITHACA, N. Y., October 30. —(Spe-
cial) —President Schurman, of Cor
nell University, in his annual report
for the coming meeting of the board
of trustees, makes a plea for a reduc
tion of expenses to students, both
in tuition and living charges.
On this subject he says: “If the re
public is to remain a democracy, there
must be an educational ladder ex
tending from the gutter to the com
mencement stage, which may be as
cended by the talented, studious and
diligent children of the poor as well
as by those of the well-to-do and
rich.
“Every advance is the fees charged
for tuition and other purposes in
colleges and universities tends to ex
clude a certain portion of our popu
lation from the benefits of the higher
education. And it is conceivable that
these fees might be raised to such a
figure that liberal culture and profes
sional training should become the
monopoly of that minority of Ameri
cans who can afford to spend at least
hundreds of dollars annually on the
education of each of their children.
Under such conditions there would
result an unjust and dangerous al
liance of capital and brains —an aris
tocratcy of wealth in combination with
an aristocracy of trained talent.”
President Schurman’s scheme for
housing students is for the university
to acquire through benefactions sev
eral houses accommodating 40 to
50 students. These houses would have
a common room for social intercourse
and would be rented to congenial
groups.
WHO USES HYOMEI?
The Best People in Americus, Say
Dodson’s Drug Store, Guaranteed
in Catarrhal Troubles.
No other remedy or treatment for
catarrh has ever been as popular or
made so many remarkable cures in
Americus as Hyomei.
The best people' attest its curative
virtues says Dodson's Drug Store, who
are the local agents. The fairway in
which Hyomei was sold, to refund the
money unless it gave satisfaction, was
the best proof when it was introduced
that it possessed unusual curative
powers. Dodson’s Drug Store took all
the risk of the treatment giving sat
isfaction, and left it to the purchasers
to be the judge.
Later, when Hyomei was used and
recommended by our well-known phy
sicians and business men and their
wives as a treatment that absolutely
cured catarrh, no matter how serious
or long standing, the sales rapidly
grew and today there is no other rem
edy in Dodson’s Drug Store stock
that has such a large and staple sale.
The first breath of Hyomei’s heal
ing air kills all catarrhal poison.
Try Hyomei today on Dodson’s
Drug Stores offer to refund the money
if the treatment does not give you sat
isfaction. 29-31-5
JAPANESE HAVE
HIGH STANDARDS
CHICAGO, ILL., Oct. 30.—(Special)
—Japan is to have a unique revenge
for any real or fancied slights it may
| have received of American school
authorities if President Otto C. Sch-
I neider, of the Chicago School Board,
i has his way. President Schneider
| wants to adopt the Japanese Imperial
rescript on education as the standard
of ethical and moral teaching in the
| Chicago public schools.
The rescript, which is a sort of ed
| ucational creed, was issued some thir-
I ty years ago by the Emperor of Ja
! pan, and has been used since that
time as a formula for ethical teach
ing in the Japanese schools. In part it
| reads:
"Be filial to your parents, affection
i ate to your brothers and sisters; as
husbands and wives be harmonious, as
i friends true; bear yourself in modesty
and moderation; extend your benev
olence to all; pursue learning and
cultivate arts, and thereby develop in
tellectual faculities and perfect moral
powers; futhermore, advance public
good and promote common interests;
always respect the constitution and
preserve the laws; should emergency
arise, offer yourselves courageously
to the state; and thus guard and
maintain the prosperity of the
throne.”

CENTENNIAL EOR
JEFFERSON DAVIS
Georgia U. D. C’s. Will Ask
Eor Observance.
AUGUSTA, GA„ October 30.—(Spe
cial) —Patriotic women from all over
Georgia were present when the state
convention of the United Daughters
of the Confederacy opened today.
Many prominent speakers are on the
program, and the session promises to
be among the most enjoyable ever held
by a state branch of the Confederate
Daughters.
Among the important matters up
for consideration is a resolution ask
ing that the centennial anniversary
of Jefferson Davis next year be pro
perly observed in all southern states
by the teaching of facts regarding his
life and career in all the schools, col
leges, universities and churches of
Dixie. This movement originated with
the Daughters of Mississippi, and an
attempt will be made to make it a
general measure when the society
meets in Norfolk next month.
