SMALL COMFORT FOR TITUS
Mr. Titmouse Might Have Felt Better
Had He Not Called on News¬

Titus Titmouse was Infuriated, but
the editor of the Western Wind shut
him up in two seconds.
“Is this the newspaper office?” in¬
quired Mr. Titmouse.
“It is,” responded the man at the
desk.
“Didn’t this paper say I was n
liar?”
“It did not.”
“Didn’t It say I was a scoundrel?”
“It did not."
“Well, some paper said it.”
“Possibly tt was our contemporary
down the street,” suggested the editor
as he picked up a paperweight. “This
paper never prints stale news.”—Los

“There's a Reason"
Read this tetter from Mr. J. B. Kelly,
vice-president of the First National
Bank, Graeeville, Fla.: “My daughter
had been in bad health since last April.
She was operated on for appendicitis.
She has been taking Ziron for two
weeks. Her appetite is better than it
has been. Her nerves are better, and
she says she feels "better . . . I know
that Ziron is good for weak and feeble
people.”
Ziron is a scientific, reconstructive
tonic, prepared from valuable strength¬
building ingredients, for weak people
with thin blood. Druggists sell Ziron

A Cubist Difficulty.
Blasco Ibanez, the Spanish novelist,
was talking in New York about the
cubists.
“I know a cubist In Madrid,” he
said, “who paints portraits that look
like eggs, chains, bottles, rocks—any¬
thing but the models they are painted
from.
“I dropped In on this cubist in his
studio one morning, and found him
examining with low, troubled oaths
some 20 or 30 of his masterpieces.
‘“What’s the matter, old man?’ I
said.
“ ‘The matter is,’ said he, ‘that Don
Mucho Denaro, the oil profiteer, has
just sent around for his portrait, and
to save my life I can’t remember
which it is.’ ”
A Helping Hand.
A very shy young farmer was court¬
ing a serious-minded young woman
who was not averse to him or to mar¬
riage, but she found herself after a
long period of silent courtship no near¬
er the goal than ever; the young man
could not summon up courage to speak.
One night, as they sat together—In
dead silence, of course—in her fath¬
er’s parlor, she decided that the hour
and the man had come.
“George,” she said in her most seri¬
ous tones, “George, if you love me
and don’t like to say so, you may
squeeze my hand.”

ON SEVERAL BILLS NOW BE¬
FORE THAT BODY
STATE NEWSJIF INTEREST
Brief News items Gathered Here and
There From All Sections
Of The State
Atlanta.—Opening the fourth week
of the 1920 session, the legislature
on Monday morning prepared to re¬
sume consideration of several general
bills which are at the head of the cal¬
endar in both houses. The senate
cleared up its calendar in fairly good
shape, alLhough most of its attention,
outside of the capital removal, reso¬
lution, was devoted to the passage of
local bills coming over from the
house. There are several important
bills ready for third reading, includ¬
ing the chiropractic measure, which
would license chiropractors in this
state.
The house of representatives was
scheduled to consider two measures
of general interest. One is the bill to
authorize the creation of county
boards of health to co-operate with
the state board of health in promot¬
ing sanitary conditions. The other
is a measure to aid in the develop¬
ment of the live stock industry in
Georgia by amending the law as to
live stock chattel mortgages, making
it easier for owners of live stock to
secure loans.
It is considered probable that the
Carswell and Knight resolutions will
be brought up in the house for final
action at an early date. The Cars¬
well proposal is to temporarily divert
the automobile fund into the general
state treasury to meet the present
financial emergency, paying it back
not later than December 20, 1920.
The Knight resolution provides that
the automobile fund be distributed
among the several counties on the
basis of post road mileage. Directly
opposite in intent, these two resolu¬
tions have caused a sharp division of
sentiment in the house and when they
ccme up for final consideration it is
expected that a bitter contest will be
staged.
The committee on the state of the
republic, which lias the capital remov¬
al referendum resolution, may report
it to the floor of the house in which
case there is a probability that the
removal issue will be threshed out to
the exclusion of everything else.
Mother Killed Over Cradle Of Baby
Atlanta.—While reaching over his
baby’s cradle to get his watch, which
was hanging on the foot of the bed
s
where bis wife was sleeping, Gus
Studdard, twenty-five years old, an
engineer at the Schoen Ferilizer
Works, accidentally discharged a
shotgun he was holding, the charge
striking his wife in . the head, kill¬
ing her instantly. Studdard gave this
explanation of the tragedy to the
county police soon afterward. The
family lives near the fertilizer plant,
which is on the Seaboard Air Line
railway near the southern limits of
Fulton county. Studdard said that he
had borrowed the shotgun from a
friend. He was goirfg squirrel hunt¬
ing and got up at 4 o’clock to start
out. After leaving the house he re¬
membered that he had left his watch
mnging at the foot of the bed.
He came back to get it. His three
year-old baby was sleeping in its cra¬
dle at the bedside. His wife, Mrs.
Cassie Studdard, was still asleep in
the bed. With the shotgun in one
hand, he leaned across the cradle and
reached for the watch. The hammer
of the shotgun struck the side of the
cradle. It flew back and then snap¬
ped down on the plunger. The weap¬
on happened to be pointing directly at
his wife's head. W’hen it was dis¬
charged the load of bird shot struck
her in the forehead, literally blowing
off the top of her head. She died
instantly. -
Bond of Prisoner Reduced to $1,000
Atlanta.—The bond of Jack Smith,
who was stabbed in the Fulton county
jail by Paul Payton, convicted in Cow¬
eta county and sentenced to serve
ten years in connection with the theft
of automobiles and robbery, lias been
reduced from $3,000 to $1,000, by or¬
der of Solicitcr General John A. Boy¬
kin. Doctors at the Grady hospital
stated that, while Smith’s condition
was somewhat improved, it was still
serious. Smith was confined in the
tower, following his commitment
from the recorder’s court under the
charge of larceny of an automobile.
Payton, who had begun serving his
sentence on the chaingang, was
brought here to be used by the state
as a witness in impending trials. .
Dry Dock Assembled
Savannah.—The sixth and last sec¬
tion of the big dry dock built in Sa¬
vannah by the government during the
war has arrived in Baltimore, accord¬
ing to news reaching here. The work
of assembling the dry dock is now
under way for the Globe Shipbuilding
and Drydock company. The dock will
have a lifting capacity of about 10 ,
000 tons, and will cost more than a
million dollars when completed. It
was floated in sections and towed
from Savannah to Baltimore.
Woman Puts Burglar to Flight
Atlanta.—Mrs. C. D. Hall, on a visit
in Atlanta from her home in Lees-,
burg, Ga„ fought in the dark with a'
burglar in her room at the home of,
Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Feeney, 45 Cur-'
rier street. About 11 o’clock Mrs.
Hall was roused by a noise. In the;
dim light from the windows she could
see a man standing over her, fum¬
bling at her pillow, beneath which
was her purse. She sprang from the
bed and grappled with the burglar,
striking him and scratching him. He
fought back, catching hold of her
neck and trying to choke her. Mrs.
Hall began to scream and Miss Ruth
Hall, awakened by the noise, gave a
general alarm that aroused the house¬
hold. The burglar broke away from
Mrs. Hall’s grip and rushing to the
window, leaped out. The neighbors
scoured the neighborhood for him,
but he could not be found.
State Will Repair the Forsyth Road
Macon.—W. S. Canning, mainten¬
ance engineer of the state highway de¬
partment, made an inspection of the
paving which has been done during
recent months and announced that
the state department has decided to
place the Forsyth road in good condi¬
tion, without leaving the work to the
contractor, as was at first contem¬
plated. At the time the paving of the
Forsyth road, extending a distance of
about eight miles from the corporate
limits of Macon to the county line,
was done, joints were left in the con¬
crete, which have since buckled, and
as a result the paving is anything
but satisfactory. When the situation
first arose the contractor who laid
the paving was ordered to fix it, but
after his efforts had' been shown to
be unsatisfactory the state highway
department decided to take charge of
the work itself.
Lefevre Surrenders to Sheriff of Bibb
Macon.—Ben Lefevre, who shot and
seriously wounded J. N. Hightower, a
telegraph operator employed in the
Central of Georgia yard office, surren¬
dered himself to Sheriff Hicks after
spending one night in the swamps.
Lefevre declined to discuss his case
except with his attorney, who called
on him shortly after he had been
lodged behind the bars. Though a
bullet penetrated his body, passing
through one lung and shattering his
spine, Hightower is said to have a
good chance to recover. The shooting
toqk place at the yard office, High¬
tower being at work at his key at the
time, it being alleged that Lefevre
came up behind him and shot him in
the back. Lefevre had previously
been ejected from the yard office by
Hightower because it was claimed he
was under the influence of liquor.
75,000 Acres Involved In Land Case
Brunswick.—One of the largest
land cases ever to enter courts in
south Georgia has been filed in
Wayne superior court, coming under
the new land and registration laws
of Georgia. Approximately 75,000
acres of Wayne county land is involv¬
ed, and the legal battle to follow is
expected to be a spirited one, and the
case will no doubt be in the courts
for some time. The land involved
extends over a broad area, and in¬
cludes that tract between Mt. Pleas¬
ant, just across tl\e Glynn county line,
and extending to Waynesville, in
which is included the villages of
Browntown and Fendig, together with
a large section of excellent farir
lands.
African Beggar Possessed Wealth
Macon.—That the lowly beggar to
whom you toss your nickel or dime is
not always as desperately in need as
ycu think, is shown by the case of
Will Jones, an aged negro who was
found dead in his. home herp and who
for years had lived on the bounty of
the charitably inclined people of Ma¬
con. When Coroner Wages was call¬
ed to hold an inquest over his body,
it was expected he would be buried
at the expense of the county, it was
discovered, however, that instead of
being a pauper, Jones had a bank ac¬
count of several hundred dollars. For
years Jones had made the drug store
at Poplar and Broadway his headquar
ters.
Gov. Cox Thanks Georgia Club
Savannah. — Former Congressman
Charlie Edwards, head of the first
Cox club formed in Georgia, at Savan¬
nah, has received a letter from Gov¬
ernor Cox stating the latter’s appreci¬
ation of the interest of the Geoi’gia
democrats and assuring them of his
belief that he will win. Mr. Edwards
served in congress with Governor
Cox. The letter to the president of
the Savannah Cox and Roosevelt club
is as follows: “Your kind telegram
received. I know Georgia can be re¬
lied upon this year, as in the past, to
do its full duty, looking to victory for
the democratic ticket. I am very
grateful for the club. Thanks and re¬
gards to each member of the club and
to all my other fellow democrats in
Savannah.”
Flood Drowns the Corn
Lyerly.—Corn on the lowlands
along the Chattooga river will have
to be replanted here after the high
waters have gone down, according to
advices, and this will further delay
the crop and greatly reduce the yield.
Practically all corn that was planted
in the river bottom land that was up
was drowned by the water, which
stood on the young corn for more
than forty-eight hours. The river
reached a stage that has not been ex
ceeded in a number of years.
How Many Women Are Like This?
Can anything be more wearing for women than the ceaseless
round of household duties? Ohl the monotony of it ail
work and drudge; no time to be sick; tired, ailing, yet can¬

they find themselves “simply worn out,” and to make matters

Relief for Torpid Livers
and Habitual
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, dysentery,
diarrhoea, pains in back and under shoul¬
der blades and under ribs on right side.
These symptoms lead to colds, influenza
or other serious troubles unless corrected
immediately.
An inactive liver places an extra
burden on the kidneys, which overtaxes
them and causes the blood to absorb and
cai^ry into the system the impurities that
the liver and kidneys have failed to elim¬
inate.
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 or¬
dinary laxatives do not go far enough.
If you would treat your kidneys and blood
while treating the liver, you would put
5 our entire system in order and frequent
purgatives would then be unnecessary.
