Daniels, Thomas A. Edison, Roar Ad
miral Peary, Champ Clark, Henry
Cabot Lodge, Luther Burbank, John
Burroughs, Senator Tillman, James
Whitcomb Riley, and Lyman Abbott:
but all these men—and a long list of
others—have sent contributions for a '
series of “Success Talks" for Southern
farm boys and girls in The Progressive
Farmer during 1B1B.
Other Progressive Farmer features
include a 62-week “Reading Course in
Good Farming," giving the boy who
cannot go to college the fundamentals
of agricultural science, and a similar
course for girls under the heading,
“How the wide-awake Girls learned
Good Housekeeping."
Every farmer who has hoys or girls
between 10 and 18 ought to be on the
lookout for these articles.

NEWNAN PEOPLE GET IINSTANT
ACTION.
Those who have used it in Newnan
are astonished at the INSTANT action
of simple buckthorn bark, glycerine,
etc., as mixed in Adler-i-ka. Because
it acts on BOTH lower and upper bow
el, ONE SPOONFUL Adler-i-ka re
lieves almost ANY CASE constipation,
sour stomach or gas. It removes such
surprising foul matter theta few doses
often relieve or prevent appendicitis.
A short treatment helps chronic Btom-
ach trouble. The Odom Drug Co.
After an attack of gout the general
health Ib often improved.

FAKED VENTRILOQUISM.
the Deception Made Possible by the
Loud Speaking Telephone.
A great deni ot ventriloquism is not
ventriloquism at all. In fact, the mod
ern wonder In this line ot pleasnut nnd
deceptive art needs to have noue of the
old time ventriloquists' ability at all.
He mny—nnd often does—stand on the
opposite side of the stage from his
manikin nnd puff a cigar quite cou-
tentedly, to the qumzemeot of tho an-
dlcnce. ’file dummy dhSwegs with a
rendy line of repartee, delivered In
stentorian tones. Nor is that all, for lie
turns and twists his head, wnves his
arms, kicks up hlB feet and otherwise
nets In a very lifelike manner.
The secret of the dummy’s voice Is
the loud spenklng telephone nnd of his
actions various electro magnets. As
mny be guessed, both are operated by
some one off the stage, in order to
produce all the desired effects the dum
my figure is fitted inside with n loud
speaking telephone receiver, *vith the
horn or large mouthpiece pointing to
ward the audience. The receiver Is
connected with a Bpeclal transmitter
in an nnteroom some distance away.
An ordinary operator’s breast trans
mitter Is also concealed In the body of
the dummy, so that whatever Is said
by the ventriloquist on the stage is
transmitted to tho operator in the ante
room, ennbllng him to speak for tho
dummy at the proper time.—Argonaut.
WONDERS OF THE ALPS.
Change! Nature Wrought to Uplift
Their Towering Peake.
Nothing in the world’s history is more
impressive than the story of the Alps.
Ten or twelvo million years ago, pos
sibly far more, a long unseen line of
weakness, a crack of fissure in the
earth’s crust stretched away from
France eastward hundreds of miles. On
this line followed hugo volcanic out
bursts.
Next ensued a vast slow subsidence,
which went on through geologic epochs
until where Mont Blanc now renrs its
summit 15,780 feet was a sea fringing
an old continent Large rivers emptied
into it. Deposits of mud, sand, gravel
were laid one on another as the sink
ing went on until the layers became
50,000 feet, nearly ten miles, thick.
Then at last commenced a great up
lifting: the struggling subterranean
forces raised n huge load. For ages
(his went on until tho rocks, crumbled,
crushed, contorted, rose above the wa
ters nnd continued to rise, forming lines
of mountain chains and making Swit
zerland n tublelnnd.
Every hour since then rain and snow
river, glacier and avalanche have been
sculpturing into peaks and carving into
Inkes nnd valleys that vast platform
with its recent sedimentary covering
and primeval granite core.
Tho result is a land of unequaled
grandeur.—London Telegraph.

The Old TurnpikeB.
The first grout American highway,
thnt between New York and Philadel
phia, was long known as/tbeold York
road." Its construction In 1711 was an
exnmple which led the colonists at
other points along the Atlantic sea
board to construct similnr ronds where
there were no water routes. They were
usually built by chartered companies
and were called turnpikes or toil ronds.
Pennsylvania, Connecticut and New
Jersey bnd mnny ronds of the kind.
The first macadam road in America
was built in 1702 between Philadelphia
nnd Lancaster. In 1811 there were
said to be 4,500 miles of chartered turn
pikes in New England and New York.
During the next, twenty yenrs the na
tional government spent many millions
of dollars in constructing great high
ways, but the panic of 1837 nnd the
building of railroads nnd cnnals put an
end to ‘ that branch of government
work.
A Financier.
"Look here, Jlmpson," said Brockle-
bank, “I’m terribly mortified about not
having paid back that dollar I borrow
ed of you last June, but honestly, old
man”—
“Oh, that’s all right. Brock,” Bnid
Jlmpson. “Don’t Bpeak of it"
“Oh, but I must sponk of it, old
man," snid Brocklebank. “I can’t treat
a friend thnt way, you know, and I—I
want to pay you, and I will, Jimp-
sure thing. If you’ll lend me $2 I’ll
pay off that dollar right now, and we
can start fresh again.” — New York
Times.
Our Work.
It’s as simple as the rule of three,
If we make light of our work by using
it for our own ends, our work will
make light ot us, and as we are the
weaker, we shall suffer.—Kipling.

Don’t wait until you are actually I
sick to take a laxative; you know “an

of cure." If you will just take uv-
verlax regularly, it will keep you

bright, energetic and happy. It is
made of harmless vegetable matter,
and by acting gently but effectively
keeps the system cleared of poisons
and ready to perform its best work.
