NEIGHBORS AROUSE SLEEPING MAN FROM HIS BURNING HOME ' Neighbors hurling rocks through his Vied room window at 4 o’clock this 'morning saved the life of Luther Hen r ry when his home at No. 252 Cooper street burned. Henry was sleeping alone in the house and, though the blaze had spread over the entire structure when the neighbors rushed to his. rescue, he was still asleep in a far end of the flaming dwelling. All of the neighbors were in night clothes. They ran around to the side .of the house, where the sleeping owner <lay; and threw roc as and sticks and "jeven chunks of clay against the walls land smashed out window panes until Henry arose. He made a dash through a broken window just as the roof fell in. He was unhurt.

III ’■IMS w THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. THURSDAY, TONE 27,1912. Atlanta Maids and Matrons Are Complimented on Way They Handle Motor Cars. "If I had to ride s hundred miles an hour in an automobile I’d feel safer if a woman were doing the driving." That statement about expresses W. J. Stoddard’s belief that women make the best amateur chauffeurs in the world. Mr. Stoddard, who admits that he’s an automobile "bug” of the most acute sort, declared that in all his experience he had never seen such competent, careful, speedy drivers of autos as are a half dozen of the young women who spin dally up and down Peachtree street. There’s Miss Myrtle Hancock, of Ju niper street, for instance, who makes about as pretty picture as anyone could want to see as she sweeps up the avenue in her runabout at a dash that is always pressing the speed limit. Miss Harriet Calhoun. Miss Mary Helen Moody, Mrs Phinizy Calhoun. Mrs. S. C. Dobbs, Mrs. Marshall McKenzie. Miss Helen Dargan and Mrs. W. J. Stod dard are numbered among the other Atlanta women whom Mr. Stoddard <Te clares are better at the tiller of a car than most men. More Careful by Intuition. "Here's the point,” said Mr. Stoddard. "A woman's sight is quicker than a man's. They’ll see danger ahead soon er, They’ll run more carefully by in tuition where danger is and that same intuition makes up the time for them on the good stretches of the road. Mrs. Stoddard, for instance, will take me through Atlanta in our machine in less time than I can make the same trip myself, and she won't hit half as many rough spots. "Then a woman knows more of the psychology of automoljiltng than most chauffeurs I have met. We’ll say your machine is making time on a city street and that when you're ten yards or so from a corner a man steps off the curb into your path. If a woman happens to be driving that car her first quick look at the face of that pedestrian will tell her infallibly whether he’s the sort of man that’s go ing to keep on across the road or whether he’ll step back and give her the right of way. Many accidents 1 have known of have happened because the chauffeur didn’t guage rightly what the pedestrian was going to do. but I never knew a woman driver to hit a man like that. "And anybody who says that women can't learn automobile mechanism like a man doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Mrs. Stoddard understands our machine far better than I could learn ft in a hundred years. It makes you feel mighty silly, of course, when you’re out driving with a woman who has to start your machine for you when you get into trouble and are tinkering around helplessly yourself. “Incidentally. I don't know of a much prettier sight than a pretty wo man guiding a speeding electric up a city street, do you?" Move On Now! says a policeman to a street crowd, and whacks heads if it doesn't. “Move on now," says the big, harsh mineral pills to bowel congestion and suffering follows Dr. King's New Life Pills don't bulldoze the bowels. They tly pars ;ade them to right action, ard health follows. 25c at .u druggists. FUNERAL NOTICE. VAi’OHAN The friends of Mrs. Kate E Vaughan.
