Atlanta men have sought license to

the month when young men appeared

Legislature s First Rohin Here
BILL BLEVINS IS PEEVED
Bill Blevins, of the county of Glynn,
has arrived. Mr. Blevins is to the
legislature what the first robin is to
summer, first harbinger of the nested
days to come. He usually arrives
about a week before the first roll call
and strives earnestly to land a place as
doorkeeper of the house or messenger
for the senate or custodian for the Cap
itol dome. Bill never was particular,
always maintaining that his name on
the state pay’ roll was really the most
important detail of his ambition to
serve his commonwealth.
But Mr. Blevins was peeved today.
He leaned against a pillar in the Kim
ball house corridor and complained
querelously that Mr Kimball was not
bestowing that attention to his busi
ness which should mark the keeper of
such a hostelry a« this.

"Why’ don’t you go up to your room.
Mr. Blevins, and take a rest?” Inquired
the sympathizer into whose ears the
story of distress had been poured.
"Well, you see.” returned Mr. Blev
ins. "whilst I’m a reg’lar customer, as
I might say. I ain’t got no reg’lar room.

ALTRURIANS PLAN
PABAOISE HERE
Dr. Fealy, Occult Leader, Pro
poses “Vibration” Sanita
rium for Perfect Living.
Georgia is soon to have a retreat
where students of the occult may sit at
the feet of the Yogi without journey
ing to the peaks of the Himalayas, if
Dr. L. A. Fealy. of Ireland, India and
Birmingham, carries out his plans. Dr.
Fealy’ is in Atlanta today after a lecture
to his followers who compose the Altru
rian society, and has just returned from
a visit to Madison. Ga., where he pro
poses to establish his retreat and sani
tarium.
Atlanta has not been the haunt of
Swamis and Yogis in Oriental robes,
most of its apostles of the occult carry
ing on their researches in small and
sjgn-emblazoned tents, for a
small piece of silver they’ delve into the
unknown and emerge with a fortune
in store for each and every applicant.
But Dr. Fealy is not one of these. He
is said to have a most extensive and at
the same time lucrative clientele in
Birmingham, and his income is only
equalled by his lavishness in charitable
work. He lectured last night at the
Carnegie library and this afternoon
and evening will address his class,
members of the Altrurian society, at
the Piedmont.
Believe Absolutely in Him.
Just how many Atlanta women are of
his cult is hard to determine, but the
Altrurians believe absolutely and im
plicitly in Dr. Fealy and his work. They
say he Is a. great healer, a master of
the science of vibrations, and to his all
seeing eye there is neither distance nor
matter.
The writer sat In the drawing room
of the home of a north side woman of
social prominence as she spoke of Fealy’
the Yogi and his work.
"He Is a master,” she said. "In him
I have perfect faith. I have studied
under the great Hindoo mystics who
have visited Boston and New York, and
I have known Dr. Fealy for a year. I
do not merely believe in hfs powers—l
know.
"It Is all vibrations. Matter Is mete
ly vibrations. There is really’ no such
thing as matter. That chair is merely
one form of vibrations, the table is an
other. Change Its vibrations and you
change ft into something else. When
one is ill hfs vibrations are disarranged.
The Yogi knows what is wrong and by
his will corrects it.
“It isn’t exactly theosophy, nor Budd
hism, nor any one creed. We take the
best from all. Buddha, Mohammed.
Christ—they are all accepted as great
leaders. Our law is ‘the law of perfect
peace to every living creature.’ The
nearer one attains this state the nearer
one approaches perfection We have
been studying under Dr. Fealy for many
months. Some of us have learned a
great deal. Oh, yes. he believes in re
incarnation. What we can not attain
in this life we may gain in our next
incarnation.
Became Yogi in India.
"Dr. Fealy is Irish, a graduate of
Trinity college In Dublin, and King’s
college, of London. He is about
years of age When young he devel
oped tuberculosis, and physicians or
dered him to the south of Italy. He
had made preparations to leave when a
stranger approached him on the street
and told him of a retreat far in the re
mote passes of the Indian Himalayas,
and Dr. Fealy went there instead He
made his way into the forbidden coun
try and there met a mystic brother
hood, the leaders of the cull of which
he is now a follower. He recovered h : s
health and under their teaching, cov
ering a number of years, became a
Yogi."
For some time Dr. Fealy’ has con
ducted a sanitarium and retreat in Bir
mingham, but it was burned a short
time ago He now proposes establish
ing a larger sanitarium at Madison, not
far from Atlanta, where the quiet and
repose should be conducive to medita
tion. and a. disciple of his cult may
"loaf and invite his soul" without the
distractions of auto horns and trolky
wheels.

AT LAST AN ATLAS
| THAT STANDS ALONE
Feat of Flat Book About the World
Att'actinq Attention to Its Excellence
Isn't an Atlas about the clumsiest >
book you evet handled?
Memory takes you way back to vour
school days, when you were first “so
proud nf the big. brightly-colored hook t
which you soon found to be a greater
source of physical annoyance than all
| of your oilier books combined.
It wouldn't go into your school bag
easily, and it certainly was so top
heavy that it would not stand upon its
i thin edge, and when you placed it on its
side it covered a great deal too much
space gn your little desk.
. As you grew older, did you ever find
an Atlas that did not have the same,
j annoying faults'.’
Even when you stowed It away on
\ our book shelf you had to find a shel*
d 1 ■j, enough to hold it. and then piop it »
up with another book to keep it from
toppling over. Taking it all in all, you
never had a more bothersome book"
Progress has been made, however, in
Atlases as u- II as skyscraper,construc
tion. and there is now a book built
upon such common sense lines that the
first boy who received one cried, "She
I stands alone.”
It ißilanus easily and firmly upon Its
edges md outdistam-es all competition
