BOTH ATHENS PAPERS
ARE OUT FOR HARRIS
ATLANTA, Ga., March s.—Further
evidence of prevailing public senti
ment and the growing strength of
William J. Harris, candidate for the
United States Senate, is to be found
in the fact that out of twenty-one
daily newspapers outside of Atlanta,
all but two have announced their sup
port of his candidacy in the strongest
terfs.
The Athens Herald of Thursday af
ternoon joined its morning contempo
rary, the Athens Banner, in declaring
for Mr. Harris in a ringing editorial
whcih predicts that he will sweep the
state.
Th e three Atlanta dailies are e
- loyal to the administration and
its policies, but they have not yet an
nounced their position n the senatorial
race. In other words, they are simply
neutral up to the present. The friends
of Mr. Harris are confident that all of
them, air well as two neutral dailies
outside of Atlanta, will soon join in
supporting him against the enemy.
A leading citizen of the state who
attended the food conference in Ma
con last week, which brought upwards
of two thousand prominent farmers,
merchants, hankers and professional
men from practically every county in
the state, declares that Mr. Harris was
the center of an ovation in the lobby
of the Dempsey Hotel and in the con
bention hall. He was assured by rep
resentative men from every part of
the state that he is the people’s
choice.
THIS WILL MAKE
MILLIONS HAPPY
ANY CORN WILL DRY UP AND LIFT
OUT, SAYS A CINCINNATI
AUTHORITY.
Let folks step on your feet hereaf
ter; wear shoes a size smaller if you
like, for corns will never again send
electric sparks of pain through you,
according to this authority.
He says that a few drops of a drug
called freezone, applied directly upon
a tender, aching corn, instantly re
lieves soreness and soon the entire
corn, root and all, lifts out without
pain.
This drug is sticky, but dries at
once, and is said to simply shrivel up
the corn without inflaming or even ir
ritating the surrounding tissue.
It is claimed that a quarter of an
ounce obtained at any drug store will
cost very little but is sufficient to re
move every hard or soft corn or callus
from one’s feet. Cut this out, espe
cially if you are a woman reader who
years high heels.

BE PRETTY! TURN
GRAY HAIR IM
TRY GRANDMOTHER’S OLD FAY
ORITE RECIPE OF SAGE TEA
AND SULPHUR.
Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streak
ed or gray. Years ago the only wav
to get this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy and trouble
some. Nowadays,' by asking at any
drug store for “Wyeth's Sage and Sul
11,ur Compound,” you will get a large
’ ottlc of thin famous old recipe iin
p • ~ed by the addition of other in
gre ie. ,s, at a small cost.
Don’t stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and dra w this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears and after another ap
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, glossy and attractive.
Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Com
pt und is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire dark hair and -a
youthful appearance. It is not in
tended for the cure, mitigation or pre
vention of disease.
MAN ARRESTED FOR
ELOPING WITH WIFE
ATLANTA, Ga., March s.—Eloping
with another man’s wife would be ex
pected to get a man in trougle, but It
remained for C. J. Nash of this city
to land behind the bars for eloping
with his own wife.
She was an inmate of the Georgia
Training Sschool for Girls, located on
the outskirts of Atlanta, on account
of her several desertions of Nash in
the past, and her wild and frolicsome
habits.
Nash and her mother went to see her
and consented to take her away from
the home, concealed in his automobile
underneath a laprobe. Soon after ar
riving at home the police officers got
there with warrants and arrested all
three of them.

THIS Bit VOLUNTEEfIS
TO BE BEEVEIB SPY
*
WASHINGTON, D. C, March 4.
Uncle Sam can have the services of
a perfectly good spy if he wants them.
Peter Rivers, aged 17 years, of Maple
Lake, Minn., says so.
Writing to U. S. Marine Corps head -
quarters Peter said, among other
tUngs, “ I’m too young to be a sea
soldier but I can be the best spy you
most ever saw. Send me along a spy’s
badge and a Colt’s .45 and I’ll go right
to work. I’ve read history and my
only regret is that I haven’t nine lives
like a cat so that I could give them all
to my country.”
In expressing appreciation of Peter's
offer of service, the Marine Corps au
thorities advised him to keep on play
ing “Hi Spy” with the boys of Maple
Lake several years longer before
tackling the business.
MRS. HIRSCH TO BE
BROUGHT TO TRIAL
ATLANTA, Ga., March 5. —Because
Mrs. H. H. Hirsch was planning to
sue Mayor Asa G. Candler for defema
tion of character and false arrest, and
because it was boasted in her behalf
that, the mayor would not dare to
prosecute her, after the disclosures
brought out in the trial of Cook, it has
been determined by Solicitor John A
Boykin and Reuben R- Arnold, the
latter retained to assist, in the prosecu
tion, that she shall be brought to trial,
and accordingly her case will be called
on March 14.
Mayor Candler and the attorneys
for the prosecution were satisfied with
the conviction of Cook, considering
him the real guilty party in the black
rjail plot and were not disposed to
press the case against Mrs. Hirsch,
since she has lost her husband, her
home, her position and even the pleas
ure of associating with Cook, who is
facing a chaingang sentence of twelve
months.
But because of the plans and ar
rangements which are understood to
have been made between Mrs. Hirsch
and her lawyers, they were forced
tc go through with the case to pro
tect themselves.
