Promptness, the Keynote of COSMOPOLITAN Efficiency
YOU carry as much LIFE INSURANCE protection as
J./ a man in your circumstances should? DEATH MAY
COME AT ANY MOMENT—IN THE TWINK
LING OF AN EYE!
A COSMOPOLITAN POLICY does not insure against
death—nothing can do that—but it does, by creating an estate in
stanter, insure your loved ones against the penalty of DEATH—
the aftermath of your passing.
When men think of death they are apt to think of it only in
connection with their spiritual welfare, and overlook entirely the de
vastation in the household which inevitably comes as a result of their
demise.
Can there be anything more pitiable than the sight of a woman,
delicately reared in a home of refinement, given on her wedding day
to a man to whom she is to be the chief joy until the moment of
his death, being thrust out, armed with nothing more formidable
than a cambric needle, with helpless children by her side, to strug
gle for bread in a world where brawny muscle and a rugged soul
are necessary?
It is the mission of LIFE INSURANCE to appeal to the
highest instincts of manhood—to awaken it to what it really is, the
marvel of self abasement. “WIFE AND CHILDREN FIRST”
should be the creed and gospel of mankind, never more efficaciously
expressed than when a man puts the shield of a COSMOPOLI
TAN LIFE POLICY between those whom he loves better than
himself and malignant, grinding poverty.

WRITES “THE BANKNOTE POLICY”
Want a Monkey Named After You?
CHANCE TO BE FAMOUS
Everybody ean have a namesake—
that Is, if they have $7 and are willing
for a monkey to bear the entitlement
that was given by mamma and papa
when you couldn’t say anything but
“goo" and couldn’t voice your protest.
V. H. Kreigshaber is father of the
idea. He believes that the encaged
Simians in Grant park'are the cause
of more juvenile joy than anything in
Atlanta, and he is for fun for the
kids.
He would therefore increase the num
ber of the banderlog held for public
gaze and amazement in the Gress zoo.
MOONSHINER WHO
DESTROYED BOND IS
HERE FOR PEN TERM
In order to save his surety from
having to pay the amount of a bond
which had given him his freedom, J. D.
Dollard, a moonshiner of Troy, Ala,,
burned the bail and then attempted to
disappear He was convicted of con
spiracy against the government, and
today began a term of two years in the
Atlanta Federal penitentiary.
Dollard was indicted for illicit dis
tilling. A frfend came to his rescue
and made bond. The moonshiner didn't
want to face trial. He didn’t want to
sacrifice the friend who had made him
free, though. His signature to the bond
was all that made escape impossible.
So he burned the bond. He entered
the office of the United States commis
sioner at Troy, took the paper and ap
plied the match. Its disappearance was
traced to him, and the indictment, trial,
and sentence followed. Dollard was
brought to Atlanta last night.
GULF STEAMSHIP LINE
PLANNED BY COLUMBUS
COLUMBUS, GA., Aug. 17.—A move
ment has been launched by the Co
lumbus Board of Trade providing for
the owning and operating of a steam
ship line on the Gulf of Mexico when
the Panama and St. Andrews bay ca
nals are opened t< traffic.
There are five boats on the Chatta
hoochee river, and it is the contention
of the trade organization that if a
steamship line is established on the gulf
it will enable Columbus to get cheaper
transportation facilities, because her
own steamers could bring goods to the
St. Andrews bay ports and the freight
on Id be loaded on river steamers at
that point and brought to the city at a

'JOHN TEMPLE GRAVES
PREDICTED SUCCESS
I OF VIOLINIST DITTLER
A prophecy made by John Temple
Graves in The Atlanta Georgian of
April 25. 1906, has been richly verified
by Herbert Dittler, violinist. In his
editorial Colonel Graves said, after
hearing Dittler play:
“In the musical circles of this city
there has been found a boy with the
stamp of genius on his brow and the
touch of genius on his fingers. Herbert
'Dittler seems to be at the present mo
ment Atlanta’s best and newest hope
of an artist of international fame.”
The last five years young Dittler has
continued his studies with European
masters. Dr. Percy J. Starnes, city
oiganist, and probably the most expe
rienced musician in thill part of the
country, has heard Dlttlefl play. Dr.
Starnes had but one comment to make:
“He is second only to Kubelik, and
he has his life before him."
Dittler will play at the free Sunday
organ concert tomorrow afternoon. The
general public is Invited to attend. The
concert begins promptly at 4 o’clock.

NriSIMNOONED
Unions Vote to Discontinue
March This Year and Cele
brate at Grant Park.
The big union parade, always th,
great feature of Labor day. has been
cast into the discard in Atlanta Al a
recent meeting the Atlanta I’ederation
of Trades canvassed the vot. taken
among the unions, and it was found
that a slight majority wWre in ivor of
celebrating Labor day, September 2.
without a parade.
This feature will be eliminated for
the first time in sixteen years. The cel
ebration will be at Grant park, in the
nature of an all-day jollification, with
speaking and games and lunch.
The Journal of Labor devotes its
leading editorial in this week’s issue,
out today, to a discussion of the pass
ing* of the parade feature, under the
caption "This Different Celebration.”
It follows:
Interest in Outcome.
“The Atlanta labor unionists are mak
ing a radical departure this year from
a custom of sixteen years in abolishing
the spectacular feature of the parade.
Its outcome will be watched with in
terest.
"Hundreds of unionists the country
over still believe in the parade, while
other hundreds just as conscientiously
oppose it.’
"The president of the American Fed
eration of Labor unhesitatingly—as is
his wont —deplores the passing of the
feature, while others, probably not quite
so prominent hut equally entitled to
their honest opinion* just as earnestly’
view with satisfaction its discontinu
ance.
"A great majority of those opposed to
the parade are among the trades which
attend their daily tasks within doors.
To these the physical discomfort of two
or three hours in the hot sun Is a fear
ful experience, and an acute —though in
most cases temporary—illness develops.
The question with these, of course, is
putting loyalty to the cause above phys
ical discomfort.
“The outcome of the relegation of
the parade in Atlanta for 1912 will be
watched with interest by the unionists,
and if it is found a mistake it will be
corrected.”

Peachtree
Pat's Adventures On
His First Pullman.
W Patterson, the urbane and ef
fervescent second mate at the Forsyth
theater, to; k :i trip to Chattanooga re
cently. The fact that he took a trip
to Chattanooga is not significant—but
the fact that he rode in a Pullman ear
for the first time in his hectic career is
both interesting and epochal.
"Pat"—as he will be hereinafter
called, for the sake of expedience—had
consistently abjured Pullman% In the
first place, it wasn't democratic that
green-cushioned differences in estate
should be made manifest on a railway
train. In Hie second place, what was
seclusion in time of peace might eas
ily ,become restriction of liberty in
time of wreck.
In the third place, he wasn’t exactly
certain of what the mode of procedure
was when a person entered a Pullman
and rather than expose himself to any
“up stage" etiquette he stayed care
fully outside.
Didn't Like Looks of It.
But in spite of all this, he rode in
one on the above mentioned trip to
Chattanooga. Jake Wells was along,
and it was nothing but the cushions for
him, so “Pat” had to go too.
Things fared moderately well with
"Pat" until There were quite
a number of devices sticking about that
worried him a little, but he smeared
his uneasiness with a bravado which
would have done credit to old Tuan
Pullman himself. Finally the porter
approached “Pat" and asked if he was
ready to have his berth made down.
Pat glared at him for a moment —
rose and peered curiously into a berth
that was already made, but unoccupied.
He took note of tile low ceiling formed
by the upper berth; lie plucked cu
riously at the pillow shams and rattled
the wire screen window. Then his eye
caught the hammock.
“Huh," he said. “The first time that
train rounded a curve I’d hang myself
in that tiling sure."
Stayed Up Until Daylight.
“I think I'll stay up for a while,” he
told the porter. “I might miss some
thing.” And he stayed up till daylight
came. When Mr. Wells was preparing

Superintendent Diehl says.
to leave the train the next morning,
the porter approached him. made a few
ineffectual dabs at his coat, and then
looked unconcerned at the ceiling. Mr.
Wells handed the negro a half-dollar.
"What's that for?" asked "Pat” in
amazement. “Didn’t you pay your fare
before you left Atlanta?”
“Oh, that’s for brushing off my
clothes," answered Mr. Wells.
"Pat” gasped. Then, turning to the
negro and shaking his forefinger, he
said, "You keep out of here. The next
time there’s any brushing off to be done,
I’m the guy that’s goin' to do it.”
Back in the Day Coach.
And so saying, he wrathfully left the
train, bitterly pondering all the while
Pullmanic tyrannies and the general
inequalities of life.
The next day a railway official asked
“Pat” if he should reserve a Pullman
berth for the return trip.
“Not if I know myself!” said “Pat.”
“The day coach for mine. I’ve got tu
