GOING OUT OF SHOES
A WOMAN'S STRATEGY

gard Lover to Action,
After the athletic young mfft), resting
lazily in an easy chair, bad studied the
ceiling at which he was blowing smoke
he replied to the pretty sister who had
twice asked him the same question:
“Bess, you know X don’t care the turn
of my band for women. I’m saturated
with what the politicians call apathy.
Of course I remember the Georgia girl
that visited us last summer. She was
a magnificent creature to look at, but
I’H warrant she is just like the rest of
them. I paid her some attention for
your sake, little one, but really I bad
to think twice before recalling her.
Her name was Molly, wasn’t it?”
“Tab Twing writes me of a report
that Molly is going to marry Captain
Howker of the army. You know him,”
and the sister took observations from
the corner of one eye.
“What, that chump? The infernal j
feather headed flirt and egotistical ig
noramus! What right has a conceited
puppy like that to marry a woman like
her, to drag her from garrison to camp
and from camp to garrison ? Don’t her
family know enough to prevent it?
Good heavens, Bess, you have influence
with her! Why don’t you interfere?”
“And get snubbed for my pains? I

the matter, my dear boy.”
“No; it’s not that, Bess.” Yet she
could see the blush on the back of his
neck as he looked out the window.
“I’m ill. I’ve felt it coming on for sev
eral weeks. The truth is that the doc
tor «ays I must g<? south for awhile,”
and he never hesitated at this whop
per, and she was gushing in her hypo
critical sympathy. “It’s a confounded

Within lo minutes she sent this: ;

I Dr. Wiley's Letter.
Dk. John M. McCandless, State Chem
ist, Atlanta, Ga.:
Deak Doctor McCandless—I accord
you, with pleasure, the permission to
publish my analysis of the Georgia
wheats in any way you may see fit.
In regard to the statement previously
made, in some of our bulletins, that the
southern wheats were the poorest in the
United States, I desire to say this state
ment had reference entirely to the con
tents of nitrogen and gluten in such
wheats. Experience ana research have
shown that the longer a wheat grows
the more tendency is shown to develop
starch at the expense of gluten.
I It is well known tha | | he spring
wheats, which mature in three or four
months, contain larger relative quanti
ties of gluten than the winter wheats
which grow seven or eight months. The
analyses which I have made of the
Georgia wheats certainly show that j
there are localities in Georgia where the
gluten and nitrogen contents of the
I wheat, which I presume is winter wheat,
compare favorably with similar wheats
grown much further north.
i
Therefore the statement previously
made should be modified as indicated
above and should not be made general of
all localities in the Southern states.
You are also at liberty to use this
statement in the publication of the ana
lyses. Sincerely,
H. W. Wiley, Chemist.

magnificent forests there looms up an

Those who have given this subject
careful attention have been thorough
ly convinced that the sugar cane indus
try of Georgia can be, and should be,
greatiy increased. The sngar mill will
| accomplish the desired end.
In 1899 the United States paid foreign
j countries about $195,000,000 for sugar
imported for domestic consumption.
It took the proceeds of nearly half the
cotton exported to pay for this sngar.
There is then not the least danger of an
[ overproduction of sugar and syrup.
Captain E. G. Parse of Savannah says
that our common field coon can also be
used for the production of sngar, and
that it would be a valuable auxiliary to
the sngar cane by giving to the sugar
mills work all during the summer when
they would otherwise be idle. Sugar
refineries and increased production of
sngar cane will do much toward secur
ing permanent prosperity to South
Georgia.—State Agricultural Depart

To feed a cold and starve a fever Is
a dangerous maxim. At the first sign
of a cold the patient ought to take a
rapid hot bath in a warm, well venti
lated room, then remain covered in
bed, with hot water at the feet, for
several hours. Darken the windows,

drinking warm broth or gruel, until
unpleasant symptoms subside. Nor
should there be mental or physical
