In sn effort to regulate the sanitury con-
lltlons of the practice of the barber*’ trade
In the Interest of public health, and to ele
vate the standard of competency among
those practicing the trade, the tonsorlnl
artists of the state have united to secure

the next session of the Georgia legislature.
Tbo bill has already been drawn up for
the barbers by Attorney Alex W. Stephens.
It provides for the appointment of a state
board by the governor, which shall have an
thorlty to hold examinations each year and
which shall adopt rules and regulations gov
erning the barbers’ trade. Any member of
the board shall hive the right at auy time
to enter any barber shop nnd examine the
tools kept therein, and If any barber. Is
fonnd with unclean or Insanitary tools he
shall be punished as for a misdemeanor,

Tho most vital provisions of the bill, and
which affect the trade most strongly, are as
follows:

"Delighted to get back to Atlanta?
Well, I should say I am.” This was the
charming greeting given a Georgian
representative by "Mrs. Weston.” of the
“Cowboy and the Cady," at the Grand
last night between tlie first and second
acts, right after she had received euch
a warm welcome following her debut
with the Fawcett Stock Company. With
hlr eyea sparkling and her face beam
Ing the delight which follows the thrill
of a "hit,” “Mrs. Weston," Who In pri
vate life Is Miss Jane Wheatley, con
tinued:
“One is always glad to get back to
Atlanta It Is a olty of delightful sur
prises. You know, I find everything
changed hero since my visit four years
ago, except the audience. That la the
same enthusiastic, encouraging audi
ence for which Atlanta ta noted, and
which always makes one try to do his
or her best.
“How I wish I could play the 'Girl'
part here In Belaaco'a 'The Girl of the
Golden West.’ You know, I had Just
closed my. season with Belasco In that
part. I played tho Western circuit,
while Miss Bates, the creator of the
role, played the Eastern. I went to
the home of the 'Girt,' and waa well
received. You know, generally, when a
particular character 1b staged and that
play Is sent there the people from
whom the character Is taken generally
resent her. They look upon tho play
wright as a caricaturist of their sim
ple life, and the character as his car
toon. Well, this waa not the case with
Belaaco'a 'Girl.' He had picked her out
bo true to life that they recognized her
and her mannerisms at once and gave
her an ovation. It waa applause for
one of their own that they felt they
were giving.
"It la my favorite part, and, I think,
the greatest part I have aver played.
"But next to her I prefer Glory
Quayle, in The Christian.’ We play
that here next week, and I do hope
you will like it. It Is a fine part and
gives one auch an opportunity.
“I am ao glad my audience was ao
kind and gencroua tonight You know,
I had never even seen thl* play Olid
had to learn my lines and 'busineas' in
three rehearsals. I arrived Friday
morning and havo learned It all since
then. Talk about your girls 'cramming'
and 'boning' for examinations! Why,
I know all about It, and more, too,
following thla experience. But tnopo
to Improve next week.
"But to return to Atlanta. I had
just finished my season, as I said, when
Mr. Fawcett offered lhe a 'lead.' I
asked where, and he said, 'Atlanta'
“You know, I was going to another
summer resort, but decided that Atlan
ta svaa lust aa good, so here I am and—
"That's my cue. Goodby"—and Miss
Wheatley waa Mrs. Weston again.
Slight of build, with a good figure and
a crowning glory of hair which resem-
bloa burnished bronze In the sunlight,
Mias Wheatley la a charming actress,
fun of Are and magnetlam.

A UNIVERSAL FOOD
Following Nature’s Footsteps.
“I have a boy two years old, weigh
ing forty pounds and In perfect health
who has been raised nn Grape-Nuts
and milk.
> "This Is an Ideal food and evidently
furnishes the elements necessary for a
baby aa wall aa for adults. We have
used Grape-Nuts In large quantities
and greatly to our advantage.”
One advantage about Grape-Nut*
Food Is that It Is pre-dlgealed In tha
process of manufacture; that Is, the
starch contained In the wheat and bar
ley la transformed Into graite-sugur
by exactly the same method aa tills
process Is carried out In the human
body, that Is, by the use of moisture
and long exposure to moderate warmth,
which grow* the diastase in the grains
unit makes the remarkable change ft tm
starch to grape-sugar.
Therefore, the mi-st delicate stomach
an handle Grupe-Nuts and the rood
U quickly absorbed Into the blood and
tissue, certain part* of It going direct
ly to building and nourishing the brain
and nerve centers. •There's n Hea-

prices.
Pastime Theater.
Every audience at the Pastime Thea
ter, on Peachtree street, Monday greet
ed the changed vaudeville bill nt this
popular little playhouse with salvos of
applause.
With generosity the management has
distributed free tickets all over the city
which admit ladles and children to any
matinee, Except Saturday, absolutely
free. -These are being taken advantage
of rapidly.
If any distinction can be made as to
the clevtreet act perhaps the audience
appreciated more the woVk of the John

pair and their efforts were appreciated.
Matinees are dally at 3 and 4 o’clock
p. m., and each evening continuous per
formances from 7:30 to 11 o’clock.
Inaugural Carnival.
Great Interest has been manifested
In the announcement made in The
Georgian on Saturday of the proposed
Inaugural Skating Carnival at the rink
of the St. Nicholas Auditorium at
Ponce DeLeon, on Saturday, June 29.
This Is the date that Governor-elect
Hoke Smith will be Inaugurated into’,

means of diversion the management
has planned an ’inaugural Carnival,
which will be given at this rink on
skates, that night. As especial guests
of honor Governor Smith, the officials
at the xtutc* <a:>ltol and the general as
sembly of Georgia will be invited to at
tend nnd boxes for their comfort and
convenience will be reserved and deco
rated.

'My Wife's Family."
Vnts, nil! happen In the best
ret «ed theatrical families and "My
V. ifv’s Family” Is no exception by at
least two miles It Is a calamity.
The alleged musical farce was pre
sented to a large, but not altogether
enthusiastic audience at the f’aslno
Monday night and while it Is true that
one or two parts are fairly well taken
care of, the residue Is such a negative
quantity and the play such an abomi
nation that there Is reully practically
nothing to praise except perhaps the
author's consideration in not making
the acts twice as long and three times
as many of them.
John McDowell as Doc Knott was
good. It was not his fault that he w;
burdened with a series of antiquated
jokes and whiskered situations and he
did well, considering what he had to do
It with.
”Ih this n play or a young riot
usked one of the sufferers. Accidents
will happen all the week.
And by the by, Is It not about time
to turn on the vaudeville?
