( Various Trade Bodies, Cities and
Counties Asked to Consider Ques
tion of Joint Conference at Aineri
cus.
The movement inaugurated by the
Americas Board of Trade to have a
meeting in this city of the represent
atives of the trade organizations, cit
' ies and counties that iie on the pro
posed route of the great highway from
Jacksonville to Atlanta is now under
I way and in a few days it will be pos
sible to tell whether there is a suffi
cient spirit of interest in the project
to insure a hearty co-operation along 1
the entire route.
•Letters have been sent to the trade
bodies of a number of cities and towns
soliciting their support of the move-;
ment and requesting suggestions that
might be of assistance in making the
suggested conference a success.
The inaugurator and chief promot
er of the movement in Florida is the
Jacksonville Board of Trade. The fol
lowing communication has been sent
to that body:
Americus, Ga., Feb. 2, 1911.
President Board of Trade,
Jacksonville, Fla.
Dear Sir: The movement for an im
proved highway from Jacksonville to
Atlanta running through the northern
part of Florida and south and west
Georgia, has awakened much interest
in this section.
It has been suggested that as Amer
. icus is almost centrally located be
tween Jacksonville and Atlanta a
meeting be called here of the repre
sentatives of the various trade organi
zations, towns and counties that would ■
likely be interested in the proposed
highway. Can we rely on the co-op
eration of Jacksonville in this matter?
From here to the Florida line there
is already an excellent highway for
part of the distance. By simply con
necting the existing we
would have one grand continuous
highway from here to Florida. It a
meeting be called we would like tv
have your earnest eo-operation and
would want you to furnish representa-1
tives who are good talkers. Kindly
let us hear from you with any sug
gestions you may have relative \o
same. Very respectfully,
THE BOARD OF TRADE.
It is believed that the desired co
opeiation will readily be secured and
that an impetus will be given to the
Atlanta-Americus- Jacksonville high
way movement that will ensure its
j successful consummation within the
next year.
THIS RICH MAN
AN ARTIST IN SECRET
Never Brew Until He Was 53
Tears of Ape
Chicago, 111., Feb. 3.—With the open
ing at the Art Institute of the fifteenth
annual exhibit of the works of Chica
go artists a remarkable romance be
came public, identifying a millionaire
business man with a successful artist.
The business man, whom none of his
associates suspected of artistic aspira
tions, is Edward Burgess Butler. As
Edward Burgess, it was learned to
night, he is a successful painter of
landscapes. The mystery was solved
by art critics, who have been puzzled
over the authorship of a painting hung
last year, and for the possession there
was keen competition.
Mi;. Butler never had attempted even
to draw up to three years ago, at the
age of 53 years. In the next two years
he was able to spare but little time for
the cultivation of his new-found gift, |
but, to his great surprise, a landscape,
! painted by “Edward Burgess” was not
only accepted, but several organiza
tions, which customarily purchase the
cream of the work shown, entered into
competition to procure the painting.
Letters sent to Burgess, however, re
mained unanswered, and the Chicago
art world was a loss.
The story leaked out through per
sons who had taken the trouble to con
firm their suspicions concerning the
artist's identity. Mr. Butler is also
known as a philanthropist and re
former.
Sedentary habits, lack of outdoor ex
ercise, insufficient mastication of food,
constipation, a torpid liver, worry and
anxiety, are the most common causes
•of stomach trouble. Correct your
I habits and take Chamberlain’s Stom-
Jach and Liver Tablets and you will
j soon be well again. For sale by all
I I dealers.

PARENTS FAIL TO
HELP THE SCHOOLS
Stand In Way of Cliiitlron’s
Progress In Stefa
■j (Savannah News.)
(Mr. Ashmore, superintendent of the
public schools, made a very serious
complaint against parents. It is that
they don’t exercise the control over
j their children they should in respect
jto their studies. As a result of this
lack of control the children are not
doing as well in their studies as they
should. The examination papers show
that the children are not thorough.
Mr. Ashmore says that the teachers
are not to blame, that the trouble is|
; with the parents who do not require it
| home the attention to their studies
they should. It is evident that if the
! children are. to make progress the
! parents must work hand in hand, as it
were, with the teachers. They must
see to it that the children give enouga
of their time out of school hours to
; their books to prepare themselves for
( their recitations. In the home there
i should be regulations for study, and
i observance of them should be insisted
upon.
j If children are permitted to have
their own way, to follow their inclina
tions, they will not only fail to get the
benefit from the schools they should,
but they will form habits that will
follow them through life. Their char
acters are formed at honv as well as
at school, and if they are indifferent in
respect to their studies at home they
will he so at school. They will become
men and women without being effie
, ient in anything and without knowing
the importance of efficiency. As men
and women they will shirk work, try
to avoid the hard places in life instead
of facing them bravely and forcefully,
and take advantage of every opportun-:
ity to seek pleasure, tit is easier to
form the character of children in i
early school days than when they get I
older. The most of them will have to!
make their own way in the world a n d
those who are permitted to follow
their inclinations now will, in too many
cases, be failures, dissatisfied with
themselves and a cause of worry to
their parents. Mr. Ashmore his
touched upon a subject that should ar
rest the attention of every parent.
“SHE PAINTS LIKE INDIAN,”
HF WANTS DIVORCE
One ( barge By Schreider Against Wife
He Won't Support.
Wilkesßarre, Pa., Feb. 3.—Charged
with failing to support his wife, Geo.
•Schreider of this city pleaded in his
defense that-he could not live with her
because she used cosmetics. “Why,
Judge,” he said to Alderman John F.
Donhue, who was trying the case “you j
could not expect me to live with her
and support her when she paints like,
an Indian chief and daubs herself with
poweder, would you?”
The Alderman did not commit him
self and Schreider went on: “I always
disliked face powders and such stuff
and when she insisted on using them
I simply could not live with her.”
Mrs. Schreider denied both charges
vigorously and the case was continued.
You are probably aware that nneu
monia always results from a cold, but
you never heard of a cold resulting in
Pneumonia when Chamberlain’s Cough
Homed'- was used. Why take the risk
when this remedy may be had for a
trifle? For sale by all dealers.
