TWINS, 90, CLAIM AGE RECORD
Kansas Brothers Dispute Ohioan*'
Longevity Title—All Agree
on Work.
Leavenworth, Kaa. — Friend* of
.7*ineg and Joel Cheatwood, twin*, who
celebrated their ninetieth birthday an
niversary recently near here, are prone
to dispute the claim of the Woodvlle,
Ohio, twins, William H. and Henry
Bruna to the title of "oldeat living
twins In the United States” at the age
of eighty-eight.
The recipe for long life of the
Kansas twins la similar to that of the
Ohioans—“work." Each of the Cheat-
wood twins owns a farm and works on
It daily.
So striking Is the resemblance be
tween the Cheatwood twins, that when
they don their "Sunday clothes" and
have their beards trimmed, It is dif
ficult to tell them apart.

D isorders of the stomach and constipation are
the most common diseases of children. To
correct them you will find nothing better than
Chamberlain’s Tablets. One tablet at bed time will
do the work and will make your child bright and
cheerful the following morning. Do not punish
your children by giving them castor oil. Chamber

New York.—Keen competition has
developed in tile race for supremacy
on tlie seas. The latest addition to

Hug to the forefront in the sea com
merce of the world is the steamship
Lone Stur State, recently delivered
from her builders to tlie United Stales
Lines, which has Just sailed on her
maiden voyage to Bremen.
in tlie Lone Star State, as In other
passenger carrying vessels constructed
under government supervision, the ele
ment of safety was of prime considera
tion. Jt is declared that tlie new liner
is practically unsinkable. Originally
planned as a transport and later desig
nated to act as a hospital ship to bring
buck American wounded from France,
tlie Lone Star State was built torpedo
proof as nearly as human ingenuity
could make her.
Tlie vessel lias thirteen water-tight
compartments. Shipping men who
have inspected her have declared that
even if she were cut in twain each
half would remain alloat.
From the standpoint of comfort, noth
ing lias been left undone to make her
a luxurious vehicle for sea travel. Slit;
carries two classes of passengers, first
and third. Full attention lias been
j given to tlie cuisine anil amusement fa
cilities on the Lone Star Slate. Tlie

i class hotel ashore.

A GREAT NATIONAL
PARK FOR REORRIA
CARE RUINS FISHES’ ‘MORALE’
Protected Salmon Grow Too Tame,
Canadian Parliament Is Told
by Expert.
Ottawa. Ont.—Government fish
hatcheries have ruined tlie “morale" of
the salmon of British Columbia, ac
cording to the story told to the house
of common* by A. 'V. Neill. It seems
that, when the salmon come into tlie
World at jthe fish hatcheries they are
gumpleci against all enemies and Mr.
NellCsays they lose their protective In
stinct. So, when the salmon lias come
of <ge and is sent out in tlie cold
world he Is as "tHine us a cat," to quote
Mr. Neill, and when lie meets au ene
my he "stands with Id* month open
and accepts murder as if such a thing
were foreordained.”
ANT nt the biggest
W development pro- ' >'
jects yet proposed in
Georgia is the contem-
p I s t e d estsblishmcnt
by the United States
Government of a great
recreational park in
the mountains of Hab
ersham, Towns, Ra
bun, Fannin, Lumpkin
and White counties,
where the government
now owns thousands of
ucres of land in its na
tional forest reserve.
If tlie plan goes
through. North Georgia
bids fair to become a
national summer play
ground, for the Cats
kills and White moun
tains, now teeming
with vacationists every
summer, have no more
bewildering beauty and
picturesqueness than
ran be found in the
Georgia mountains.
W hat tlie establish
ment of such a park
would mean to the
state cannot be esti
mated, for, if under
taken by the govern
ment, its development
will he at federal expense, and it would
attract into Georgia thousands of visitors
from every section of the country.
And in this we arc brought face to
face with another reason why the si. ; ( f
Georgia should complete her highway s; ■
tern, for if sueli a recreational park is to
he of benefit t.i Georgians, it must In-
made accessible to them. Very little of
this forest reservation c.i i be reached by
the railroads of the stale. The develop
ment of tlie plan must necessarily depend
largely upon whether or not the highw :
leading to this section er.n be made usa
ble for the thousands of tourist that would
bo attracted to such a playground. Va
cationists from centra! and southern stater,
now throng tlie mountains of North Car
olina, when they could find tlie same rest
and repose in “the hills of Habersham,"
if Georgia will lie enterprising enough to
capitalize her natural resources as North
Carolina has done, and as Tennessee has
done, and build a system of roads that
can be used the year ’round by these
pleasure seekers who spend money wher
ever they go.
A stretch of seven miles of the slate
highway system runs through this reser
vation now and the forestry commission
has on hand $20,000 with which to help
pave this section, hut the counties through
which this road runs cannot match the
federal money ami the slate has no funds
plains of ccntr.
become a pl.r
of tourist who
mate the veer
Typical Mountain Scene in North Georgia
with which to match it, so the whole plan
is delayed.
When the hrnd issue for good roads,
which the Georgia Good Roads Associa-
ti m is championing, is passed, und the
state highway s- t.-in completed, the moun
tains of north Georgia as well as the
I end south Georgia will
round for the thousands
would come to this cli-
rnund, to the mountains
in summer end the southern sections in
tile winter, und would enrich our state
with tlie money they would spend.
The West long ago recognized tlie value
of permanent aihthe veur-'round roads and
of inviting tlie tourists of the Ration to use
them, so that section spent money lavishly
on toad construction. What is the re
sult'!’ Thousands und thousands of peo
ple go West every year, spend millions of
dollars, and come home singing tlie praises
of a country that lias been progressive
enough to" build good highways.
Georgia ran issue bonds in tlie sum thit
can be retired by the automobile lirense
fees and gasoline tax and build tlie 5.500
miles in the state system without exlru tax
ation on the people. Would it be worth it
to tlie state to have these roads?
This is a question the next session of the
legislature will have to answer, and if they
will free Georgia from her limitations and
permit her to issue bonds to build the»
roads, in ten years the state will have da
veloped hevnnd our fondest dreums.
