IMAKES POTS AND PANS I LOOK LIKE NEW HERE’S GENUINE NEW YORKER | You Can Always Tell Him —He Knows His Home City Like the Prover bial Book. The man who was born in New York and had lived there all his days gave a satisfied chuckle. “Yes, I know the, old town as few know it. It’s going to be a great pleasure for me to take you around, old man. This, of course, is Grant’s tomb. Ha, ha!” The westerner looked his surprise. “I laugh because it’s so cominon piacc—so shopworn, so to speak. But while you’re my guest you shall miss nothing from the usual to the most uncommon ... by George.” “What is it?” “Look —that big purple machine, with all tlie people. Looks iike a del egation of visiting Elks ... or . . . what in the name of time can such a big, clumsy—” “New York city sightseeing bus!” yelled the man with the ballyhoo. “Takes you anywhere you want to go to see the sights.”—Judge. Secret Revealed. Innumerable years yielded up a se cret at the statehouse today. When a janitor washed the transom in one of the rooms occupied by Ora Davies, state treasurer, it was disclosed that one of the glass windows was of clear instead of opaque glass. The accumu lation of dust of years had given the glass a frosted effect. Mr. Davies said he would leave the glass clear and not cover the transom as lias become a fad among some of the officials of the new administration. “I’ll take a chance on anyone com ing along with a periscope,” said Mr. Davies. —Indianapolis News. Clothes do not make the man, they only make opinion about him. Are you stepping on the brake or the accelerator? The food you eat does make a difference. Heavy, starchy foods often do slow down body and mind —often steal the energy that be longs to the day’s work. Grape-Nuts is a go ahead food. It contains the perfected nourishment of Nature’s best grains. It includes all those elements needed to nourish body and brain. It is easy to digest. It gives energy without taking energy. How about your breakfast or lunch does it give, or take? Grape-Nuts is sweet, crisp, delightful to the taste, and is an ideal source of power for a busy and difficult day. “There’s a Reason’ 5 for GRAPE-NUTS I AFTER THE FOOTBALL GAMES Man Who Had Been There Knew There Would Be Only One Dis tinctive College Color. They were talking of their absent sons, and the fact that each of the fathers had a boy in a different college did not prevent them from amicably discussing their prospects. “It won’t be long,” said one of the fathers, “before the athletic season opens, and then I think we'll hear something from the Orange and Blue.” “Yes,” said another, “and there’ll be some shouting done by the Blue and Gray.” “Os course,” said the third father, “and as my hoy has gone to Prince ton, I’ll have to put in a word for the Black and Orange; but it doesn’t make such a great ileal of difference. The boys are bound to come under the same colors in the end.” “No,” said one. “Can’t be arranged,” said the other. “Oh, yes, it can !” “To which colors do you refer?” “Black and Blue.” —Philadelphia Ledger.

REDISCOUNT RATE BOOSTS BUSINESS REDUCTION OF ONE-HALF PER CENT ANNOUNCES FEDERAL RESERVE BANK STATE NEWS OF INTEREST Brief News Items Gathered Here And There From All Sections Os The State Atlanta.—Further progress in the general business revival throughout the country, especially in the South, is expected to follow the simultaneous announcements recently of reductions in rediscount rates on all classes of paper by the Atlanta Federal Reserve bank and six other similar institu tions. The rate in the sixth federal re serve district was fixed at 5 1/2 per cent, a reduction of one-half per cent, at a recent meeting of the directors i of the Atlanta hank, and following its approval by the reserve board in Washington, it went into effect im mediately. This reduction followed a drop from 7 to 6 per cent last May. Federal reserve banks at Chicago, St. Louis and Kansas City made pub lic reductions of 1 per cent at the same time the Atlanta announcement was made, while similar institutions at New York, Philadelphia, Richmond and San Francisco made decreases of one-half per cent. "We made our city in the rdiscount rate,’’ said Governor M. B. Wellborn, of the Atlanta Federal Reserve bank, recently,” in order to improve and as-, sist. the business and agricultural in terests of this district. "Th period of marketing crops is not nearly finished, and it is our de sire to accommodate tlie farmers in disposing of their products. We feel that we have taken an important step in this direction, through making a reduction in our rates. The cost of orderly marketing has been lessened. Burglar Gets Heirloom At Residence Atlanta. —The home of T. T. Wil liams, was entered and robbed and several articles of value and a small sum of money, were taken. Among the missing articles was an open-face Howard watch in a gold case, prized highly by Mr. Williams as a family heirloom. It was given him by his uncle, Toulman Taylor, who had received it from his mother on his twenty-first birthday. Inside the case appears this inscription; "To Toulman from his mother on his 21st birthday, July 21, 1878.” Attached to the watch was a gold fob from the Druid Hills Golf club. Woman Is Injured In Auto Accident Atlanta. —Atlanta’s average of one or more serious automobile accidents a day was continued with Mrs. Ethel Lefkoff in the role of the victim. Alighting from a street car and walk ing around the back of the car, she was struck by the automobile of J. S. Poole. Her collar bone was broken and several of her ribs were broken. She was taken to St. Joseph’s Infirm ary for treatment. No case was made against the driver of the automobile. Flag Is Presented Fort Valley School Fort Valley.—The Governor Truet len chapter, Daughters of the Amer ican Revolution, presented the Fort Valley school a flag of the Stars and Stripes to fly from tlie school building at the presentation exercises taking place recently. The flag was formally presented by Mrs. W. B. Smith, regent of the chapter, and appropriate words were spoken by Miss Gladys Slappey. Sycamore Suffers Destructive Fire Sycamore.—Six of Sycamore’s best business houses, together with Ray’s rooming house and Henderson’s pea nut warehouse, were destroyed by a fire which raged for more than three hours. The blaze started in a millin ery establishment and made rapid headway, as the wind was very iiigh. The Ashbura fire department lent material aid. and the whole male pop ulation of that town came in cars to lend what aid they could. At one time it was thought that the whole of one side of Sycamore was doomed. The loss is estimated at $200,000 or more. Have Unique Way Os Saving Potatoes Thomasville. —The Messrs. Neel, of this city, who among their other en terprises, grow a large crop of sweet potatoes, have a rather novel way of curing and storing them for the win ter. The potatoes are put in crates and then stored in the basement un der their chain of stores, where the heat from the furnace dries to pota toes out as effectively as in a storing house, in the spring the potatoes are shipped off to market where they com mand good prices. Wagons are busy this week in hauling the potatoes and storing them for the drying-out pro cess, which has proved successful for years past. Commissioners Against Asylum Atlanta. —The Fulton county commis sioners put .themselves on record as being opposed to the establishment of a "miniature asylum” in Fulton county to take care of lunatics after the in formation had been given to the com missioners by Claude Mason of the ordinary's office, that the asylum at Miiledgeville is filled to capacity. Mr. Mason said that'it is now impossible to get any more patients into the asy lum from Fulton county unless some are brought tick and taken care of 3y the couLty, HIGHWAY LINK IS NEARING COMPLETION Vast Amount Os Bridge And Trestle Work Necessitated Expending Much Time And Money Eastman. —Work is rapidly nearing completion on the public road, lead ing from Eastman to Abbeville, which will connect ■» ith the bridge recently constructed over the Ocmulgee river, just east of Abbeville. By reason of the fact that several miles of the Dodge county end of the road lies through a dense swamp, it has been necessary to expend a great deal of time and money on this coun ty’s portion of the highway. A vast amount of bridge and trestle work was required to span the swamps and streams on the eastern side of the river. In addition, a practically new road, of highway dimensions, has been constructed. When finished, tlie new highway will afford another avenue of traffic, between the western and eastern sec tions of the state and between the northeast and Florida. As soon as completed, much of the automobile tourist traffic from the eastern states to the Florida resorts will no doubt move over that route. 2 Former Governors Appear In Court Atlanta. —Two former governors of Georgia were present in Judge John T. Pendleton’s division of the Fulton superior court. John M. Slaton and Hugh M. Dorsey, formerly chief exec utives of the state and now attorneys practicing at the Atlanta bar. sat wait ing for their cases to lie called. They were not pitted against each other. They were merely present in the in terest of their respective clients. “This is the first time I have ever seen two . former governors in this court at tho same time,” said a deputy sheriff. Dodge County Hogs Win Fair Prizes Eastman. —The junior yearling herd of black Poland-Ohina hogs, carried by R. F. Buchanan, of this county, to the Southeastern fair in Atlanta, brought; back practically all of the premiums, offered by the fair management for; hogs of that type and breed. The hogs were entered against tlie strong est kind of competition, famous herds; from many states, both north and south, being on exhibition at the same time, and much satisfaction is felt' over the splendid showing made by; the exhibit from Dodge county, evi dencing in a forcible manner; that this fully capable of! producing stock the equal of any in the whole country. Service To Pacific From Savannah Savannah. —A regular passenger service between Savannah and the Pacific coast will be started within: the next few months by the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific Steamship company, it is announced. Four additional; steamers, purchased from the ship-; ping board, have been added to the company’s fleet. Community Work In Thomasville Thomasville. —The community work in Thomasville will be carried on dur ing the winter months but the prog rams will be more in the interest of the grown-ups than for the children. As the children are in school they will not be able to attend meetings and their plays on the school grounds arO under supervision. Bank Os Sparta Cases Are Delayed Sparta. —In a formal statement made to the people of Hancock coun ty, which will appear in the current issue of the local papers over the signature of Judge James B. Parks, of the Ocmulgee circuit, the Septem ber adjourned term of Hancock super ior court that was to be convened No vember 7, will be further continued until December 5. Women To Raise SIO,OOO For Georgia Columbus. —Columbus women have determined to raise SIO,OOO for tho University of Georgia. Twenty-eight local organizations met in joint ses sion recently, mapped out plans and after going over the situation and hearing an address by O. S. Swift, who explained the great million dollar memorial fund, they announced that a fund of ten thousand dollars would be raised here. Dodge County Demonstrator Resigns Eastman. R. P. Howard, county agent, has resigned his position, to take charge of the large farm of A. P. Petway, located about nine miles east of the city, and the county is now without the services of a demonstra tor. Eastman Business Men Plan Markets Eastman. —Active steps are being taken by the business men of East man to provide a better market and complete facilities for the handling of Dodge, county farm products. Due to the fact that the county’s cotton crop this year is only about one-fifth jof normal, the keen arrangement whereby the farmers may dispose of their commodities other than cotton is being forcibly experienced. Damage Suits Against Roof Concern Atlanta. —Suits for damages aggre gating sixty thousand dollars have been filed in tho city court of Atlanta against the United Roofing and Sup | ply company, operating here, by j Miss Rita Brock and Miss N. L. Vin -11 son, who allege that they sustained se .! vere injuries when struck by a truck | owned by the defendant company at ; the corner of Forsyth and Marietta ' streets, October 28, The plaintiffs al i lege that they were walking along Ma i rietta street in an easterly direction , when they were run dovt by the truck. WEAK BLOOD IS A REAL BARRIER • Growing Children Often Need Gude’s Pepto-Mangan. Some children grow too quickly—it saps their strength. They lapse into careless, desultory lmblts, or develop a shrinking attitude* Their faces look pinched. The WOod becomes overtaxed by too rapid growth; and poisons from the system take the place of strength-giv- ! ing red corpuscles in the blood. Red | corpuscles are those little red particles ] that swim In blood and give it its color. Gradually that child loses interest in Its play. Poor blood needs the building that the iron in Glide’s Pepto-Mangan gives to weakened blood. Glide's Pepto-Man gan enriches the blood by increasing the number of red corpuscles, and re stores the blood by driving out the poi sons. When the revived blood gets to work, the appetite becomes what a I growing child's should be. Your drug- ; gist has Glide’s Pepto-Mangan in liquid ; or tablet form. The name “Glide’s i Pepto-Mangan" is on every package. Advertisement. Learning. Little Hess —Paddy, I've been play ing I was mamma. Father —Is that so? What did you do. dear?
