NEW AND UNIQUE INVENTION
BARS COUNTERFEIT COINS
Washington, D. C., July 22.—Spu
rious coins no longer will pass in tel
ephone pay stations or in slot ma
chines, if an invention which its orig
inator has exhibited to the telephone
companies and which to-day he dis
played at the Secret Service Bureau
and the Treasury Department, does in
the final tests all that he claims for it.
The telephone companies, probably
the greatest sufferers from counter
feit money, are preparing, it is said, to
make a thorough test of the new ma
chine. In Brooklyn a few months ago,
it is said, the telephone companies
found 75,000 slug imitations of fivc
•ceut pieces in their pay telephones in
30 days, amounting to a loss of $3,750.
Similar conditions exist elsewhere, it
is said, and with other forms of pay
machines.
The present invention, which de
pends on the micro-metric lock sys
tem, can be adjusted, it is said, to a
ten-thousandth part of an inch. The
machine has two exits, one for good
money and another which lets out
counterfeit money without ringing a
bell as would the good money.

steamer to his destination up the
state. Mr. Dunn is one of he most val
ued members of the local ball team,

AEROPLANE FREIGHT LINE IS
SOUGHT TO BE ESTABLISHED
’ Allentown, Pa., July 22.—John
■ Bosch, of Cementon, is seeking financ
ial assistance to build an aeroplane
1 for which he has drafted plans. Mr.
I Bosch, who has long been regarded by
his neighbors as a mechanical genius,
has suffered several bumps while glid
ing with improvised wings.
His aeroplane plans, if practical, are
the most advanced yet, Mr. Bosch
claiming his machine would carry a
ton 1000 miles before landing. He is
■ keeping his plans in a safe deposit
vault in a bank, because he claims his
house was ramsacked some time ago,
when his preliminary drafts were
stolen.
TURN OVER TIME.
Milieu Nature Hints About the Food.
When there’s no relish to any food
and all that one.eats doesn’t seem to
do any good then is the time to make
a turn over in the diet for that’s na
ture's way of dropping a hint that the
food isn’t the kind required.
“For a number of years, I followed
railroad work, much of it being office
work of a trying nature. Meal times
were our busiest and eating too much
and too quickly of food such as is com
monly served in hotels and restau
rants, together with the sedentery hab
its, were not long in giving me dyspep
sia and stomach trouble which re
duced my weight from 205 to 100
pounds.
“There was little relish in any food
and none of it seemed to do me any
good. It seemed the more. I ate the
poorer I got and was always hungry
before another meal, no matter how
much I had eaten.
“Then I commenced a fair trial of
Grape-Nuts Food, and was surprised
how a small saucer of it would carry
me along, strong and with satisfied
appetite, until the next meal, with no
sensation of hunger, weakness or dis
tress at before.
“I have been following this diet now
for several months, and my improve
ment has been so great all the others
in my family have taken up the use
of Grape-Nuts with complete satis
faction and much improvement in
health and brain power.
“American people undoubtedly eat
hurriedly, have lots of worry, thus
hindering digestion, and therefore need
a food that is predigested and con
centrated in nourishment.”
Read “The Road to Wellville,” in
ikgs. “There’s a Reason.”
Ever read the above letter? A new
one appears from time to time. They
are genuine, true and fall of human
interest.
RHEUMATISM CURED IN A DAY.
Dr. Detchon’s Relief for Rheuma
tism and Neuralgia radically cures

It removes the cause and the disease
quickly disappears. The first dose

EPIDEMIC OF PARALYSIS FOUND
AMONG PENNSYLVANIA BABIES
Bethelhem, Pa., July 22. —Dr. B. F.
Royer, of Harrisburg, associate chief
medical inspector of the Department
if Health of this state, arrived here
today to take charge of what may
turn out to be a small epidemic of in
fantile paralysis. So far there are a
dozen or so cases of the disease under
surveillance here. There has been one
death’, that of Robert, son of Dr. A. G.
Rau, dean of Moravin College. Another
'On of Dr. Rau is ill wit the same dis
ease.
Dr. Royer plans a vigorous campaign
to stamp out the disease and will very
likely order that all homes in which it
is prevalent be rigidly quarantined.
Little is known of this disease by doc
tors or its cause, other than the con
clusion of many eminent specialists,
among tli'm Dr. Simon Flexner, that
it is communicable.

INSTITUTE TO WIND UP
BUSINESS HERE TODAY
Session Has Been Largely
Attended.
The State Baptist Sunday School
' Convention, colored, will finish up the
business of the session In Americus to
day and adjourn, although many of
[ the 300 or 400 delegates will remain
! over Sunday to attend the meetings in
the several churches here.
At the session yesterday addresses
were delivered by Rev. A. B. McCoy
and Rev. C. H. Hollman, both of Amer
icus.
The president, Rev. M. J. Morris, in
his annual address urged that the con
vention keep an eye single to and do
duty in cultivating a friendly relation .
between the races, and especially the
Southern white man, in whose country !
we live. 1
This feature was applauded by the
delegates and adopted in the annual :
as the sentiment of the convention.
The delegates and citizens crowded
the church at 11 o’clock and listened
to a sermon from Rev. R. B. Williams.
Kattie Claton presented the claims
of the Pilgrims Home for old and de- <
crepid colored people, located at Ma
con. Other prominent speakers en
dorsed the movement.
The convention endorsed the first of
the nine volumns of sermons writtei
by Rev. .J. .T. Chisholm. This volume
shows the result of careful study and
great ability.
After a number of papers were read, ■
the importance of teaching race his- '
tory was discussed by Rev. J. J. Chis
holm, Rev. 11. F. Taylor, Rev. J. B.
Borders, and others. Rev. W. L. Jones,
pastor of the First African Baptist
church, Savannah, preached last night.
It was a discourse.
Rev. S. S. Broadnax, chairman of
the Trustee Board of Central City
College, will preach at ll o’clock this
morning. Rev. M. W. Redick, E. C.
Camming and E. J. Carter will speak

great educational mass meeting to

DOMESTICS ARE IN DEMAND
NOW IN THE STATE OF MAINE
Augusta, Me., July 22.—Ten thous
and girls are wanted by the house- |(
wives of Maine, according to the stare
bureau of industrial and labor statis- .
tics. That body hag started out to
supply the demand. In its effort the
bureau says:
“Maine wants 10,000 girls at once.
She needed as many as 10,000 three
years ago, and conditions have not im
proved. The wages paid are equal to
or better than those paid in stores,
anw many offices. First class girls are
offered from $3 to $G a week and a'l
reasonable privileges. A further ad
vantage is that there are no long pe
riods of non-employment.”
Getting educated is so easy it’s a!
pity there isn’t some money in It.
