Because it floods, your sys teia with, dangerous poisons. And the’ longer : you suffer, the more poisons accumulate. That is why constipation should be relieved at ones. Doctors recommend Kellogg’tf Bran, cooked and krumbled. They know it brings results because it is ALL bran. And only ALL bran can be 100 per cent effective in relieving constipation. ALL bran Kellogg’s sweeps, •leans and purifies the intestine. It ct» as nature acts. It makes the in testine function naturally and regu larly. If eaten regularly, it will bring permanent relief in the most chronic ] cases of constipation—is guaranteed i HOW C* Z - “USS V ****■**•»•« u»> . jaw , **?* ’’•“VJMflafe e. evt V ■ ’ *’»• Z' ».X .* r ■>->_rf'SCia I ”taz~ ’•* w ‘ *** ; * ■*<* CTa< '‘ ,c -*- . ....

LANGLEY WOULD IMPROVE SERVICE ATLANTA, June 27. —A measure “to improve the public service of Georgia” was introduced in the low er house of the general assembly nere by Representative Lee Lang ley, by placing employes of the sev eral departments and branches of the government of the state ,with a few exceptions .under a civil serv ice system. The measure provides for creation of a civil service commission to be composed of the governor .secretary of state and attorney general with power to formulate .adopt and en force rules for employment , .con duct in office and rjnoval from ser vice. Creation of the commission to do so or your grocer returns your money. Eat at least two tablespoonfuls daily—in chronic eases, with every meal. You wilbjike the wonderful Kellogg flavor—so' crisp and nut-like —so different from ordinary brans, which are most unpalatable. Eat Kellogg’s Bran, cooked and krumbled, with milk or cream. Sprinkle it over other cereals. Cook it with hot cereals. And by all means try it in the recipes given on every package. Kellogg’s Bran, cooked and krum bled, made in Battle Creek, is served in individual packages by the leading hotels and restaurants. Sold-by all grocers. , ? be slaves. While the earth bears a plant, or the sea rolls a wave.” Wouldn't you just love to see Al Smith stand up on a platform and sing that, with gesture?: If Roosevelt was “syntonic”; and Bryan refuses to give monkeys and lishes a place on his family tree; and Carter Glass has always had to be sick in bed or out of the country to be elded; and Henry Ford does not know yet whether he is a Dem ocrat or a Republican; and Henry Cabot Lodge seems to be “ A Lodge in some vast wilderness”; and Chauncey Depew and Joe Cannon could not go to the Republican Con vention; and our soldier boys are to get a nice bonus in 20 years; and there are 1098 delegates to this con tention and 330 of them have not been told who* to-vote for; and 120 more have been instructed to vote lor candidates who cannot possibly would provide for no additional sal aries to be paid officials named as commissioners The commission would be pro vided with the service of a clerk and examiner wi,th a salary of $2,000 per annum to be paid by the staj.e treasurer's office. In addition to clerical duties ,the clerk and exam iner would be called upon to make a survey of state departments ev ery six months to ascertain the num ber of employes in each branch’-ei the government and whether there is duplication of duties and func : ions . I Examinations by the commission z of prospective employes .under the bill .shall be open and Competitive. Appointments to the public service would be apportioned among the several congressional districts of the state .according to the most equitable distribution of employer between the different sections of I the state I Method of dismissal must be upen ! written charges Tiled with the com .mission under oath after fair and i mpartial trial by the ‘commission. The commission would be requir-i ?d to hold regular.sittings at least; four times a year complaints filed in writing arising out of any depart ments of the government relating to civil service employes T.he judg ments and decrees of the commission would be considered as final and having full legal force and effect. Private secretary of the governor the stenographer attached to his of fice who handles the executive’s private correspondence; one assis tant to the secretary of agriculture and one stenographer;«one assistant leach of the attorney general and THE AMERICUS TIMES?RECORDER be nominated; and the other 640 arc ‘divided, up between McAdoo Smith and Underwood; and it takes 732 votes to nominate—is it any wonder they are all balled up? Just under th heading of “Use less Information” I might state that a Mr. Flood heads the ,wet delega tion from Philadelphia. History states that the island of Manhattan was bought from the In dians for the quarts rum. If the Indians had saved itfi and been here this week .they could have bought the island back again with it. Houdini with his ability to open padlocks ~could have made a for tune b.gre this week. Not that it was not here, but it was harder to get .harder to drink, harder to pay for ,and hardey to get over-—if you did . And- if they do not nominate somebody pretty soon I am going home. state treasurer; secretaries of mem bers of the supreme court and court of appeals and one assistant to the comptroller general ,as well as all day laborers, porters messengers and other ike attaches whose wages do not exceed SBOO a year .would be exempt from civil service employ ment Under provisions of the act' al,I regular employes of the state who shall have ben in srvice fifty days before passage of this act and who shall be in service ninety days af ter it becomes effective .shall-auto matically pass into civil service wtihout examination . YOUTHFUL OFFENDERS AIDED BY COURT Alanta, June 27.—The juvenile court system which has been put nto operation in many parts of the South through the influence and ac tivity of the Juvenile Protective As sociation of Atlanta has gone a long ways toward the protection, of juve nile criminals in the opinion of Rev. Crawford Jackson, general seer-.-- [ tary of the association, now round ing out more than a quarter of a century of work in behalf of child welfare. As pointed out by Secretary Jack son, which is being commented upon by editors, philanthropists and oth ers, it is a mistake to deal too harsh ly with the young criminal or the boy who has violated the law while of a tender age. Reliable statistics would show that practically 90 per cent of the rich uncles have babies named after them.
