FIRST TELEPHONE AD IN 1377.
DALLAS, Tex., March 14.—Local
telephone men have come across the
first advertisement of a telephone
company. It was published in July
1877, in the newspaper of New Hav
en, Conn. This advertisement made
it clear that subscribing for a tele
phone in those early days consisted
in leasing an instrument and not in
i buying service as is the case now.
i “The proprietors keep the instru
■ ment in repair without charges,”
said the advertisement, “anil the
user has no expense except the main-
I tenance of the line. It needs only
a wire between the two stations,
i though ten or twenty miles apart,
with a telephone at each end.”
WOMEN MAY BECOME SEA CAP
TAINS.
LONDON, March 14.—Women art
eligible for sea captain certificates,
is the ruling of the Board of Trade
in reply to a question on the sub
ject from the Imperial Merchant
Merchant Service Guild. The Board
says it would not refuse to examine
a candidate for a certificate of com
petency on the ground of sex if the
conditions as to service and testi
monals, laid down in their regula
tions, were compiled with. The
question arose through the case of a
Miss Drummond, who recently went
to sea as an engineer, and the Guild
wished to have it made clear if wo
men could go further in the profes
sion.
I VALUABLE MINERALS STOLEN.
PETROGRAD, March 14.—Four
pounds of pure irridium and four
pounds of osmium, tvzo of the most
valuable and rarest of precious min
erals, were recently stolen from the
Petrograd Metallurgical Institute. The
robbers also succeeded in getting
| away with six pounds of platinum.
I All of the metals had been at the
institute, as laboratory specimens,
• for many years.
HALESTINE CENSUS COMPLETE
JERUSALEM, March 14.—Pales
tine has a total population of 757,-
182, according to the figures of the
census of three months ago. This
figure equals approximately the
population of the city of Boston as
given by the official count in 1920.
Ton nor cent of the people in Pales
tine arc given as Christian; 11 per
cent as Jews, and 79 per cent as
Mohammedans. The figures for
Christians and Jews are regarded
here as about correct, but there was
such strong opposition to the cen
sus on the part of the Mohammedans
that their number probably is con
siderably underestimated.
SOVIETS DEEM MORE TERROR
NECESSARY.
VLADIVOSTOK, March 14.
There has been a great change
among the political representatives of
the government. Practically all the
old commissars have been removed
and a new lot, with stricter ideas,
have been sent here from Moscow.
One of the late arrivals said the gov
ernment deemed this measure neces
sary in order to bring a little strength
of the government. This they think
necessary as the working classes of
the district have not had to under
go all the hardships which their fel
low countrymen in Russia have livpd
through and are therefore inclined
to be more independent.

HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENT
PLANNED IN DAUGHERTY
ALBANY, March 14.—A program
of road building, with federal aid
and through the unexpended portion
of Dougherty county’s bond money,
has been started by the board of
county commissioners which is ex
pected to give the county paved high
ways leading from Albany in four di
rections by the middle of next year.
The Dixie Highway will be paved on
the south to the Mitchell ocunty line.
This stretch is already paved for 3
miles and graveled the rest of the
way. The north leg of the Dixie
Highway, leading the Lee county line,
is being graveled now and will be
paved as soon as the gravel has set
tled. The route of the highway
north of the city is being changed
to go out Jeferson street, instead of
Washington, and a concrete bridge is
being constructed over the Central
of Georgia railroad tracks just north,
of the city limits. Work will also
start soon on graveling the Florida
Short Route east to the Worth coun
ty line, and this stretch will be paved
as soon as the gravel has settled.

Why That Lame Back?
That morning lameness —those
sharp pains when bending or lifting,
make work a burden and rest im
possible. Don't be handicapped by a
bad back—look to your kidneys. You
will make no mistake by following
this Americus resident’s example.
Mrs. J. P. Braswell, 901 Elmo St.,
says: “The first symptom of kidney
trouble in my case was lame baex
several years ago. When I ran the
sewing machine, severe pains shot
up from the small of my back, and
I could hardly keep -working. I tired
easily and everything seemed a task.
I was nervous and became easily up
set. I read about Doan’s Kidney
Pills and bought a box at Howell's
Pharmacy. I felt better right away
after using Doan’s, and they cured
me of the attack.”
