He was a young man who had come

seemed so far from the station that
he asked for one nearer.
"Well, I don’t know of any nearer

to one number. “But you’ll find a jus¬

The young man shook his head. “I

“Oh, you won’t mind so much after¬

Speedy Relief
From Habitual
Constipation
The liver is the largest and most im¬
portant organ in the body, and when the
liver refuses to act, it causes constipa¬
tion, biliousness, headaches, indigestion,
gas, sour stomach, bad breath, dysen¬
tery, diarrhoea, pains in hack and under
shoulder blades and under ribs on right
side. These symptoms lead to colds, in¬
fluenza or other serious troubles unless
corrected immediately.
An inactive liver places an extra bur¬
den on the kidneys, which overtaxes them
and causes the blood to absorb and car¬
ry into the system the impurities that the
liver and kidneys have failed to elimi¬
nate. *
When you treat the liver alone, you
treat only a third of your trouble, and
that is why you have to take purgatives
every few nights. Calomel or other ordi¬
nary laxatives do not go far enough. If
you would treat your kidneys and blood
while treating the liver, you would put
Jour entire system in order and frequent
purgatives would then be unnecessary.
Dr. W. L. Hitchcock many years ago
recognized these important facts, and aft¬
er much study and research, compounded
what is now known as Dr. Hitchcock’s
Liver, Kidney and Blood Powders, three
Medicines combined in one. This was the
Doctor’s favorite prescription for many
5eaf s ’ _,t ,ein £ used by his patients with
Marked , success. It is a harmless vegeta¬
ble remedy that will not make you sick,

EDITORS TO MEET
AT CARROLLTON
PRESS ASSOCIATION PLANS FOR
GREATEST MEET IN HIS¬
TORY OF BODY
STATE KENS IF INTEREST
Brief News Items Gathered Here and
There From All Sections
Of The State
Atlanta.—Georgia newspaper men
n every corner of the state are now
arranging their engagements so as to
be away from their offiees for the
week of July 18, and are looking daily
for the receipt of their “transporta¬
tion” from Secretary Hal Stanton to i
take them to Carrollton, Carroll coun¬
ty, for the annual convention of the
fourth estate of the Empire state. A
few will announce presently that, “ac¬
cording to our usual custom, there will
be no July 18 issue of the paper, the
editor, and his wife and son and two
daughters being on their annual out¬
ing with the other Georgia pencil
pushers.
The white paper shortage will be
relieved and forgotten for that week
for these. Others will have trusty
aides freshening up the local pages in j
their absence and cracking editorial
quips at the expense of the absent
boss.” The attendance is to be the
largest ever; the number of new mem¬
bers is expected to be greater than
in any one year of the history of the
association, and the meeting itself is
going to lay in the shade all former
aieetings, even that memorable Mon¬
roe convention of last year.
President Kelley Simmons of Mc¬
Rae this year has slipped down to
Florida to attend the state meet of
editors and gather fresh Florida ideas
for the Carrollton meeting. In addi¬
tion, he has attended many district
meetings during the last year.
President Simmons has also started
a campaign for boosting Georgia.
Credit that to his official account.
The officers of the association are:
First vice president, W. C. SntJive,
af the Savannah Press.
Second vice president, C. D. Roun¬
tree,* of the Wrightsville Headlight.
Third vice president, Ernest Camp,
of the Monroe Tribune.
Secretary, C. E. Benns, of the But¬
ler Herald.
Corresponding secretary, Hal M.
Stanley, of the Dublin Courier-Her
aid.
Treasurer, L. J. Howell, of the
Cuthbert Leader.
The approaching meeting of the
Georgia Press Assocition will be the
.hirty-fourth.
Blind Man’s Wife Slain By Bullet
Macon.—C. G. Creason, a blind man,
ivho has been playing a hand organ
an the streets of Macon tor the past
five years, shot and killed his wife in
;heir apartment over a meat market on
Broadway. Creason claims he had no
ntention of killing his wife, and was
shooting at two men who, he claims,
lad been visiting his apartment in the
alley alongside the huilding when he
apened fire. His wife, however, was
standing at the window, he claims,
md the first bullet struck her in the
±est. and she fell headlong into the
illey, dying a few moments later.
Creason kept pulling the trigger of
ais pistol and fired five shots. He
lid not know for some time afterward
.hat he had killed his wife. When a
ieputy sheriff ran up to Creason’s
apartment after the shooting he
found the blind man and his little
four-year-old son there. Creason turn
ad over his pistol to the officer, who
round it had been reloaded. He then
accompanied the officer to the county
jail, where he was booked on a charge
of murder. He took his little son to
the jail with him.
Measure To Stop Auto Thieving
Atlanta—At a meeting of the Geor¬
gia Sheriffs association in session at
the Kimball House indorsement was
given to a bill to register the sale of
all second hand automobiles with the
sheriff each county in which the trans¬
fer or sale takes place. Also a propos¬
ed hill which wil lallow the sheriffs to
sell automobile tags in each county
for the purpose of keeping a close
eheck on all local cars was discussed.
This bill will be introduced into the
legislature and a committee was ap¬
pointed by the association to meet a
committee from the house and senate
to draw the bill and arrange its intro¬
duction.
Tenant Gets. Verdict Over Landlord
Macon—Mrs. Hattie L. Harris has
been awarded a verdict for two thou¬
sand dollars against Mrs. Ellen W.
Bellamy. The suit was for five thou¬
sand dollars damages alleged to have
been sustained in injuries by Mrs.
Harris when she stepped through a
defective part of the floor of a house
which she rents from Mrs. Bellamy.
Blackberry Boll Weevil Appears
Eatonton.-r-A peculiar propaganda
current here threatens one of the most
eagerly anticipated fruit crops of Dixie
—the blackberry. From some un¬
known source the word has gone
forth that blackberries are full of boll
weevils and that it is unlucky to pick
them and unlawful to sell them. The
hucksters who have sold them regu¬
larly for years cannot be persuaded
to pick and market them as hereto¬
fore. In the meantime lovers of
blackberry pie, dumplings, jam and
.cordials are bemoaning the situation.
THE COVINGTON NEWS, COVINGTON, GEORGIA.
Wayeross Rows over .Sunday Paperf
Wayeross.—Following a controversy
of several weeks between a local con
cern and Dan T. Cowart, head of the
Law and Order League of Wayeross
two warrants have been sworn out be
fore Judge J. L. Crawley against Ger
a'd B. Knight and Dekle York, mem
bers of the company, who are accus¬
ed of nnlawfuly conducting business
on Sunday by selling “newspapers
stationery, books, pencils, inks, anc
tablets, same not being works of ne
cessity or charity.” This is flatly de
nied by Knight, who states that since
the opening of his business some time
ago not one single article has been
sold from the store on the Sabbath
with the exception of Sunday newspa¬
pers. The controversy began several
weeks ago, when Rev. C. M. Ledbetter
—a member of the Law and Order
League of Wayeross—entered the es¬
tablishment and in the name of the
league forbade the sale of newspa¬
pers on Sunday and stated that if the
request w T as not complied prosecution
would follow. Knight, in the next
evening’s press, published a statement
of what had taken place in regard
to the sale of newspapers on Sunday,
and asked the people of Wayeross to
express their sentiments on the sit
uation.
Hero Memorial Fund Planned
Atlanta.—An active campaign tu
raise by public contributions a fund
cf $500,000 to erect an historical me¬
morial building to Georgia’s sons who
lost their lives in the great war is
recommended by the Georgia Histor¬
ical Commission in its report which
has just been submitted to Gover¬
nor Dorsey by Judge Andrew J. Cobb
of Athens, chairman. The building
is to be of Georgia stone, of impres¬
sive beauty and is to be located at or
near Atlanta. Owing to the absorp¬
tion of the public mind in the politi¬
cal contests of this year, the com¬
mission recommends that the cam¬
paign to raise this money be deferred
until after the presidential election
in November. Meanwhile the com¬
mission asks for an appropriation of
at least $15,000 from the legislature
to defray the expenses of the cam¬
paign. Prior to this appropriation, a
bill would have to be passed giving
the commision legal status and this
also is urged.
Tubercular Cattle Still Borught Here
Atlanta.—That considerable numbers
of tubercular cattle are even now ship¬
ped into Georgia in spite of the rigid
application of the re-test on all arriv¬
als is shown by the report of the state
veterinarian on tuberculosis. He ad¬
vises partial reimbursement of bona
fide owners of tubercular cattle that
has been slaughtered in the public in¬
terest. Before the state adopted tho
policy of re-testing shipped cattle, the
state veterinarian says, it had be¬
come a dumping ground for unscrupu¬
lous breeders and dealers. With a
re-test made of all cattle shipped,
even when accompanied by a tubercu¬
lin test chart, the importation of dis¬
eased cattle from other states has been
greatly restricted. For 1919 out of
5,166 native cattle tested, only 41
showed a tubercular reaction, while
105 were tubercular out of 1,258 im¬
ported cattle examined.
Plan To Open Rivers For Navigation
Rome.—Capt. W. P. Lay states that
he contemplates calling the Coosa-Ala
bama River Improvement association
together in order to make plans for
going before congress with a scheme
to open the Coosa and Alabama rivers
to year-round navigation. The associ¬
ation has not met in several years be¬
cause of the adverse report made by
government engineers on the rivers,
but since their reports were mostly
adverse because of the cost entailed
in making improvements suggested
and since much of the cost has been
eliminated by the certainty of the
building of vast power dams on the
Coosa, it is deemed proper to call the
body together at an early date.
Several Spanish War Pensioners
Atlanta.—Several thousand Geoi
gians are entitled to pensions under
the provisions of *the bill recently
passed by congress for the benefit of
Spanish war veterans. This was the
statement of Gen. J. Van Holt Nash,
adjutant general of the state of Geor¬
gia, who announuces that he has a
supply of application blanks in his of¬
fice at the capitol. General Nash de¬
clares the law to be one of the most
liberal pension acts yet enacted. He
urges all Georgia veterans of this war
w’ho are pensionable under the act to
apply to him for the necessary forms
for filing application.
Penhiil’s Wife’s Death Accident
Savannah.—Aron Penh ill. a resi¬
dent of Thunderbolt, was discharged
by the court after a hearing on mur¬
der charges. He had been held for
investigation into the death of his wife
who bled to death several days ago
from penknife stabs. Penhill showed
to the court that he cut his wife ac
cidentally while trying to slash a man
named Peter Robinson whom he cam?
upon in company with his wife.
Former Policeman Jailed
Atlanta. — Detective T. O. Sturti
vant returned from Palmetto, Flav,
with former Policeman F. A. Hulsey,
who is under indictment in connec¬
tion with the theft of several auto¬
mobiles. Mrs. Hulsey accompanied
her husband and the detective to At
lanta. Hulsey recently obtained con
slderable publicity through a sensa
tional escape from his residence, when
Detectives Sturtivant and Campell
went to arrest him. Mrs. Hulsey is
said to have fought off the officers
while her husband fled

SOMETHING ABOUT SOUPS.
In a meal where soup begins the din¬
ner and the dishes following are sub¬
stantial, the soup
should be clear,
light and hot, but
not necessarily
nutritious. But in
meals where the
soup is to form
the main dish of
t h e family It
should be nutritious in character.
To make stock use bones left from
steaks, roasts and poultry or the liquor
In which they have been boiled; keep
in the ice chest. They may he added
to from day to day. The bones should
be cracked so that all the marrow may
be dissolved. Cover the bones and
any meat with cold water and simmer
gently for several hours. Skim and at
the end of the third hour add any
flavorings such as herbs, any of the
onion family, cloves, carrot, turnip,
j celery tops, bay leaves and a teaspoon
ful of peppercorns to each four quarts
of soup. ’The delicate flavor of soup
is ruined if it is boiled, as the volatile
oil and other flavors pass off in the
air. The stock is strained at the end
of four hours and set away to cool so
that the surplus fat can he easily re¬
moved. To clarify s'oek allow one
egg white with the 'ell for each
quart of stock. Crush the shell and
beat it with a little cold stock and
the egg white until well mixed. Add
to the stock just brought to the boil¬
ing point and then strain through
.cheesecloth wrung out of cold water.
In summer stock will keep better with
no vegetable flavorings added.
Consomme. —Take a shin of beef and
a shin of veal, wipe with damp clotli.
Cut all meat from the bones. In a
kettle add one teaspoonful of cara¬
mel or a teaspoonful of sugar to
brown, then add half a cupful of
chopped onion and the same quantity
of water. Cook five minutes, then add
the bones which have been well
cracked, the meat, and cover with five
quarts of cold water. Let simmer and
follow the above directions and finish
In the same way.
Either beans or peas make a most
nutritious soup. Cook the vegetables
until very soft, with an onion. Put
them through a sieve and bind with
flour and butter cooked together. Add
milk and serve well seasoned and hot.
A puree is a thick soup. For the
preparation of this soup a sieve and
wooden spoons are necessary as the
vegetables if put through the sieve be¬
comes fine enough to he well blended
and does not sink to the bottom of the
kettle. The milk is slightly thickened
and holds the fine particles of vege¬
table in suspension.
“In a large part the insubordination
of servants arises from the growing
sense of unwillingness to be directed
and governed by the individual. It Is
the spirit of the age which rebels
against the dictates of the individual,
but submits freely to the despotism of
an organization.”
SEASONABLE DISHES.
When fresh fruits are plentiful one
need not ask what to have for dessert,
for there is noth
ing more accepta¬
ble than a dish
of fresh berries,
or fruit of any
kind. They are
more wholesome
than rich pastry
and p u d d i n gs.
For variety’ one may like to try:
Strawberry Fluff. —Put one egg
white, one cupful of powdered sugar
and one cupful of strawberries into a
deep bowl. Whip with a dover egg
beater until the mixtir “ is stiff
enough to stand up and keep l liape.
It will take about twenty minutes’
heating. Serve in sherbet cups with a
thin custard for a sauce.
Scalloped Celery. —Cook two cup¬
fuls of celery in water to cover, until
tender. Save one cupful of the stock;
add to It one cupful of milk. Melt
two tablespoonfuls of butter; add two
of flour and when well mixed add the
milk and stock. Cook until smooth
and thick; season well with sab and
pepper, then add the cooked celery
and one-half cupful of cheese. Line
a buttered baking dish with buttered
bread crumbs, pour in the celery and
sauce and cover with crumbs. The
dish may be prepared in layers of cel¬
ery, cheese and sauce, if preferred.
Nut Timbals. —Melt two tahlespoon
fuls of butter; add one cupful of soft
bread crumbs and three-quarters of a
' "
cup ful of lilk . coot until smooth. Add
onp cupful of nut meats, one lable
spnonfu , of m i nce d parsley and two
eggS( well beaten. Season with salt
and pepper. Fill buttered individual
molds two-thirds full, set in a pan of
hot water and bake 20 minutes, cov¬
ered with a buttered paper.
Chicken a la Reine. —Melt four
tablespoonfuls of butter, add three
tablespoonfuls of flour, and when well
blended add three cupfuls of milk; stir
and cook slowly, then add two cupfuls
of diced chicken, one-half cupful of
mushrooms, one cupful of asparagus
tips, one-fourth _____________^ cupful of phuentoes
one teaspoonful of salt, a dash
<)f , nU g tar( j an <j paprika. Keep hot
