EARLY WORKS OF 0. HENJY FOUND Publisher, Here to See Mrs. Corra Harris, Tells of Noted Writer’s Texas Paper. Peyton Steger, of Doubleday, Page & Co., publishers, is in Atlanta today, aft er a call on Mrs. Corra Harris, whose forthcoming novel probably will be published bj his company. He spent several days with Mrs. Harris, who is visiting friends tn the country near Cartersville, and they discussed the new novel, which Mr. Steger thinks will equal any of the previous works of the brilliant Georgia author. Mr. Steger has been at the old home of O. Henry, the literary genius who died a short time ago. O. Henry, whose real name was William Sidney Porter, was an intimate friend of the publisher, and Mr. .Steger has been visiting the story writer’s old haunts in Texas. “In Austin, hidden away by a woman who had treasured them, I found 62 copies of ‘The Rolling Stone,’ a little Weekly paper which O. Henry had pub lished years ago and long before he achieved his reputation as America’s greatest short story writer,” said Mr. Steger. “Every line in them was writ ten by Porter, and they were illustrated with cartoons from his pen. It is not generally known, but O. Henry was an unusually clever cartoonist. "Those old papers proved that Porter had. even then, the spark which after ward blossomed into genius. The pa pers were full of the quaint humor which marked his later and riper work." Mr. Steger expects to write a life of O. Henry which will include a number of the author’s letters. He gained much of the material for this work in his tour of the Southwest. Ade luxe edition of O. Henry’s stories is to be published soon by Doubleday, Page & Co. PARIS SONG CRAZY; 30,000 COMPETE IN FESTIVAL OF MUSIC PARIS, May 29. —With a big military torchlight procession one of the most extraordinary musical festivals In his tory was opened. About 30,000 men, women and children, who are members of choirs, orchestras and brass bands, as well as trumpeters, buglers and drummers, have assembled here from all parts of Europe to participate in a three days' musical competiiton. Every possible kind of musical com bination is represented, and competi tions will be held in the public build ings, schools, theaters and squares ail over the city. The festival was organ ized by distinguished men, including members, of the institute, professors of the Conservatory of Music and promi nent composers. GIVE BABY A SQUARE DEAL. URGES CITY OF CHICAGO CHICAGO. May 29.—The weekly health bulletin issued by the city ap pears with numerous paragraphs aimed at the evils that beset a baby during its first few months. Among the terse bits of advice given are: Baby saving is nation saving; there fore. baby savers are nation builders. There is no greater educational need than that of "how to take care of the baby.” The old-fashioned way won't do. "Stand-patters” argue that in the » good old times it was a case of "the survival of the fittest;" progressives can see in it only "the survival of the luckiest.” The baby wants a square deal. It will be a long time before it gets all that is coming to it. Be a progressive—on the baby ques tion. There never was a time when people appreciated the real merits of Cham berlain's Cough Remedy more than now. This is shown by the increase in sales and voluntary testimonials from persons who have been cured by it. If you or your children are troubled with a cough or cold, give it a trial and become acquainted with its good quali ties. For sale by all dealers. ’•* w SUMMER SUNSHINE Caught in your Kodak will give you pleasant souvenirs of your vacation trip Jno. L.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A TRAMP AND A HOBO CHICAGO, May 29.—A distinction between a hobo and a tramp is made by Frank V. Whiting in a communication published in The Railway Age Ga zette. "It is many years;” says Mr, Whit ing, "since the word 'tramp' escaped from the vocabulary of most railway officials and was superseded by that verj- sentient substitute, hobo.’ "A tramp means one who walks from place to place, either idly or in search of work; specifically, an idle wander er.' ‘Hobo’ is defined as»an idle, shift less, wandering workman, ranking scarcely above a tramp.” STUART’S BUCHU AND JUNIPER COMPOUND • UREBXIDNEY AND BLADDER TROUBLE! | Deeds vs. Words i This Maxwell car is the best automobile in HH the world at SIOOO or less.

MARCONI SPECULATION A BLOW TO THE BULLS LONDON, May 29—The Daily Mail states that as a result of the recent rvild speculation in American Marconi shares, stock exchange bulls may have lost as much as- $10,000,000, and that this sum will have to be found when the day of reckoning arrives. The stock exchange has not yet fixed the date of the settlement, but it must soon come. WARNING TO USERS OF SO-CALLED SUPERFLUOUS HAIR “CURES” Every woman must realize that even when a soft fuzz is removed by these so-called superfluous hair “cures," which stimulate the growth after each removal, that it will only be a question of time before she will have to resort to the use of the razor, because even tually’ the hair will become so coarse that no preparation will be strong enough to remove it without ruining the skin. Why take the risk of disfigurement by using these unknown and uncertain means for removing superfluous hair, when there is such a safe method as DeMiracle —the one perfected, non poisonous and harmless depilatory that dissolves hair, thereby taking the vi tality out of it, consequently retarding and preventing an increased growth? Don't be deceived by the imitator and impostor who resorts to copying cer tain phrases of the DeMiracle adver tising to inveigle you into using a worthless, poisonous concoction, the continued use of which will produce eczema or other serious skin diseases. When a faker tries to deceive and delude you by alluring and impossible claims, tell him that DeMiracle Chem ical Company will forfeit Five Thou sand Dollars if it can be proven that any so-called superfluous hair “cure” ever eradicated one single growth of superfluous hair. Insist on proof when a claim is made that such a prepara tion is "indorsed by the medical pro fession.” To substantiate our claim that De- Miracle is the only depilatory that has GRAND CAN McFarland's Seventh Annual Tour offers one solid week of travel through seven states and Canada, covering 2,500 miles, including 500 miles by water, vis iting Cincinnati, Detroit.

Christopher C Scheuing, sheriff of Cullman county, was ousted from office under a decision of the state supreme court, affirming the Cullman county circuit court. Justice Simpson dissent ed and Chief Justice Dowdell did not sit in the case. The office is now vacant and an ap pointment must be made by the gov ernor. In the meantime the coroner of Cultman county serves as sheriff. ever been indorsed by reputable physi cians, surgeons, dermatologists, medi cal journals, prominent magazines and newspapers, we will send copies of the testimonials on request. The mere fact that fake-dangerous preparations are short-lived should alone be sufficient warning to avoid the use of any depilatory but that of proven merit. DeMiracle has stood the test of time. It was the largest selling de pilatory ten years ago and more of it has been sold each year since than the combined sales of the nostrums. All reliable dealers sell and recom mend DeMiracle, knowing it to be the best and safest depilatory. Some un principled ones will tell you they can not procure it so that they- may more easily influence you to purchase their own or possibly’ some other dangerous, worthless substitute under another la bel for a few cents more profit. To protect you from just such imposition, if your dealer w ill not supply you, mail us SI.OO and we will send you, all charges paid, in plain, sealed wrapper, a SI.OO bottle of DeMiracle, and we will make you a present of a full-size jar of DeMiracle Cream.
