Sick
Headache
“I have used Black-Draught
when needed for the past 26
years,” says Mrs. Emma
Grimes, of Forbes, Mo. “I
began taking it for a bad case
•of constipation. I would get
constipated and feel just mis
erable —sluggish, tired, a bad
taste in my mouth, . . . and
soon my head would begin
hurting and I would have a
severe sick headache. I don’t
know just who started me to
taking
Thedford’s
BUCK-DRAUGHT
but it did the work. It just
seemed to cleanse the liver.
Very soon I felt like new.
When I found Black-Draught
go easy to take and easy
acting, I began to use it in
time, and would not have sick
headaches'.”
Constipation causes the
system to re-absorb poisons
that may cause great pain
and much danger to your

late the liver and help to
drive out the poisons.

KNIGHT WANTS FAMILY HIS.
TORIES, ETC., FOR RECORDS
Dr. L L. Knight. State Historian
of Georgia, is actively campaigning
for genealogical material of all kinds
for preservation in the Department
of Archives and History. Familyhisto
ries, charts, trees, etc., are particu
larly desired. In the course of the
year hundreds of inquiries reach him
for assistance these lines alone, and
it is with the hope of rendering great
er assistance in this connection that
he appeals to the families of Georgia
to place in the Capitol copies of their
personal records. To date his depart
ment has been able to do little more
than serve as a clearing house for
inpuiries, to put into touch with each
other the various eprsons interested
in a particular family or line. But as
* State is no greatr than its individual
citizens, the other, and the State
Capitol should be the depository of
the personal, as well as of the offi
cial records of its citizens, in Dr.
Knight’s opinion.
No partcular form is required for
Hangman Retire* —Lincoln’s Poem —Strong Women —Natures Wonder*
John Ellis, England’s hangman,
retires from business, giving no
reason. He hanged Roger Case
ment and Edith Thompson, the last
woman hanged in Great Britain.
Ellis was paid fifty shillings,
about $12.50, each time he hanged
a human being. That was for the
hanging. They paid him fifty
shillings more “for good conduct.”
“Good conduct” meant that he
must stay out of drinking saloons
at the place of execution before
and after the hanging. This made
him lose money; in the old days
.public houses would pay the hang
man to stand at their bar.
The more he drank the more the
hangman talked, the more he
talked, the more terrible became
his stories of the groaning, beg
ging, pleading or “game indiffer
ence" of the men around whose
necks he fastened the rope.
If you think hanging or other
capital punishment necessary “to
frighten criminals,” devote a mo
ment’s thought to Ellis, the British
hangman.
If a crowd rushed to see him,
buy him free drinks, and listened
to his tales of horror, do you think
hanging really prevents crime?
It does not, on the contrary, it
stimulates crime, by stimulating
admiration for the criminal.
The J. Pierpont Morgan collec
tion of valuable mss. exhibited to
the public Include a poem, “The
Bear Hunt,” by Abraham Lincoln,
and this'is how it begins:
A wild bear chase didst never see?
Then hast thou lived in vain—
Thy richest bump of glorious glee,
Lies desert in thy brain. *
Here you learn that it is possible
to be a great man and a very bad
poet.
Thia is a prosperous country,
worth defending. Last week 1,600,-
000 stockholders received little
envelopes containing dividends
amounting to more than $250,000,-

dividend envelopes don’t waste
tone envying or hating those that
got them. Save your money, in
vest it, and you can got dividends
also. Except for the very unfor
tunate there is no need to stay
really poor in this country.

the world. She can sustain the
weight of a two-ton elephant, and
allow men on horseback to ride
over a bridge of which the weight
rests upon her.
In old days, such a lady would
have been courted by many.
She might have been that Ama
zon queen, who told Alexander the
iGreat that she would like to be
the mother of his children, a mes
sage followed by an interesting
meeting.—Alexander having sent
the only reply that a polite man
could send—being a bachelor at
the time.
What became of the result of
that meeting? Who knows but that
this powerful Italian woman may
be the descendant of Alexander the
Great?
Now, however, a child moving
an electric switch could raise a
thousand times the weight of that
two-ton elephant. Mere muscle
doesn’t count any more. But strong
women, not able to lift elephants,
but with good strong bodies free
from nicotine, alcohol, late honrs
and general foolishness, are as im
portant as ever they were.
Upon them depends the brain of
the next generation and future civ
ilization.
Nature is “wonderful.” There
are birds like animals, animals like
birds. The strangeness of creation
is inexhaustible. The University of
Pennsylvania sends an expedition
to catch a hoazin, bird that breaks
stones with its beak, swims like
a duck, flies like a bat. The same
expedition will look also for a
“Bellbird." Instead of singing il
tinkjes like a bell.
There are snakes that swallow
their young to' protect them, then
let them out again. There is a
lady toad that lays her eggs on
the back of her husband, who hope
around cheerfully in the sunlight,
hatching the load. Nature really
is wonderful.
