Association.
J WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.—The bouse
I tn.m. \ trust investigating committee
pushed its inquiry into the Baltimore
' ring House association today when
I it resumed its session begun last May.
Baltimore bankets who had been de
ni, d the privilege of membership in
i that association wore sharply ques
tioned by Samuel Untf. tneyer, counsel
for the committee, as to why they had
be. u shut out. They unhesitatingly re
| plied that they did not know.
John R. Biand, president of the I’nit
[ ed States Fidelity and Guaranty Coin
| pane, of Baltimore, admitted that be
. had received information that his in
, stltution was to be received into the
j association since the agitation started
j by he money trust investigating com
| mittee had begun.
I’ntermeyer tried to get the witness
| to admit that the committee’s action was
responsible for the action, but he re
fused to admit it.
Refused Membership.
The first witness before the commit
tee was William W. Cloud, president
lOf ili< State Bank of Maryland, a Bal-
I ttniore institution with a capital of
I $500,000.
I’ntermeyer questioned him about the
I Baltimore Clearing House association.
! and Cloud said the application of his
| ban! for a membership in the associa
; tion had been refused.
- What reason was given?”
I "W< v.’t p. told we would have to
'btcoine full members if we wanted to
clear."
j Cloud said they made two applica
tions for membership, the latter one in
I Muy. 1911. but were Informed that bis
j institution could not be admitted. He
j-aid his bank still was seeking mem
bership and was willing to subscribe to
all the clearing house regulations to
get it.
Cloud said bls bank had conformed
to clearing house rules regarding
charges for the collection of out-of
town bills, and intimated there was no
difficulty on that charge.
All Harmony in Committee.
When the session was formally’ open
ed Chairman Pujo read a statement in
which he predicted that it would be
necessary to correct the many "unau
thorized, misleading and inspired re-
regarding the commit
tee’s work." He said a hostile effort
had been made to embarrass the in
quiry and no statement unless made at
the committee had been taken as of
ficial.
"At no time has there ever been any
friction between members of the com
mittee," ho said. "The utmost har
mony has prevailed from the begin
ning, and a report to the contrary has
been sheer fabrication. Nor has there
been any authority for persistent pub
lished reports as to proposed remedies
or legislation,"

GRAND HAS FEATURE BILL
FOR PATRONS THIS WEEK
; Vaudeville feature acts from every
I principal circuit in America have been
'assembled to appear at the Grand this
week. The promise of the management
that thi 1 -' would happen has been fulfilled
with good measure. For the last two
weeks at the big theater the attendance
has been of the kind that follows all the
attractions that have magnetic strength.
In selecting this bill, the Keith people
have perhaps assembled more variety
than any seven-act program yet seen
here There is farce comedy, comedy
magic, trained animals, black 'ace fun,
musical comedy and gymnastics.
The star feature will be Edgar Atche
son-Ely anti company presenting "Billy's
Tombstones," a vaudeville version of the
Shuberts’ great farce comedy. Mr. Atche
son has scored a splendid success with
this, and it is believed will prove to be
one of the great 'nits of the Grand sea
son.
The popular number will be the ap
pearance of Miss Winona Winter. Miss
Winter is a product of Dixieland, and
during the last five years has been one
of the recognized stars of vaudeville and
musical comedy. She is a most versatile
little woman, and is well known socially
in Atlanta.
Don Faluno, "The Wonder Horse;”
llonalr and Wood in "Ocean Breezes;”
Lydell and Butterworth in black-face
' comedy’ the Van Osman troupe In gym
nastics. and Martini and Maxmillian in
I comedy magic, make up the bill.
"MADAME SHERRY” BEGINS
WEEK'S RUN AT LYRIC
Because every one all over the country
is humming, singing or whistling some
numbers of the score of the big sensa
tional musical success, "Madame Sherry,”
the impression Is current, in some quar
ters that the production's charm is in
greater part musical. The mirth quali
ties of the play are no less engaging than
its score. The love of a man for a maid
under odd circumstances, love of the soul
ful, romantic sort, love that blossoms in
the heart of youth and flourishes as true
love ever does when things do not go
smoothlj, is the reigning spell of the pro
duction, but this love, this courtship, is
so beset on every side and attended by
so many misadvantages, that while itself
remaining an appealing interest, all its
ac< ess<r.n situations arouse sentiment.
A company of noted celebrities will be
seen here in the sensational French
vaudeville, as it is termed, among whom
are Miss Heine Davries, Betty Barnell,
Maud Irving. Ida May, Fred Frear,
James Darling. Cyril Ring and 25 others.
A number of new Ideas in gowns and
milliner) are displayed by a charming
group of choristers. "Madame Sherry
opens a week's engagement tonight at
the Lyric.
EMMA BUNTING TO PRESENT
“THREE OF US" THIS WEEK
“The Three of Vs,” one of the stand
ard plays of modern times, is to be the
offering of the Bunting company at the
Forsyth this week.
The play is one of keen interest with
plenty of humor. It tells the story of the
struggles of three people in the Nevada
mining camps, and the good side and the
bad side is balanced until the last mo
ment when virtue as usual triumphs.
Miss Bunting and Mr. Whitaker are
both well cast and Leslie Webb and Mas
ter Bottley, the local hoy, will have star
roles. \ splendid scenic production is
promised, and. as a whole, this promises
to be one of the best bills of the season.
MUSICAL TRIO WILL BE
FEATURE OF THE BIJOU'S BILL
Another splendid week of vaudeville is
announced to begin this afternoon at’the
Bijou theater. The special feature will
be Skipper. Kennedy and Reeves, a trio
of comedians and harmony singers.
There will also be Leonard and Alvin, ec
centric dancers; Dean and Price, in their
original college skit entitled, "A Stu
dent’s Apartment," and Nat Goetz, in his
sensational ring work. Motion pictures
will open and close each performance.
Matinees daily at 3 o'clock, except Satur
day, when two matinees will be given at
2:30 and 4. Night shows at 7:30 and 9.

PAST FIFTY? YOU
NEED “CASCARETS”
——
: What glasses are to weak eyes—
Cascarets are to weak
bowels.
Most old people must give to th*
bowels some regular help, else they
suffer from constipation. The condition
is perfectly natural. It is just as nat-
■ ural as it is for old people to walk
slowly. For age is never so active as
youth. The muscles are less elastic.
And the bowels are muscles.
So all old people need Cascarets. One
might as well refuse to aid weak eyes
with glasses as to neglect this gentle
aid to weak bowels. The bowels must
be kept active. This is important at
, all ages, but nevei so much as at fifty.
I Age is not a time for harsh physics.
Youth may occasionally whip tlie bow -
. oh into activity. But a lash can’t be
, used every day. What the bowels of
the old need is a gentle and natural
tonic. One that van be constantly used
without harm. The only such tonic is
' Cascarets, and they cost only 10 cents
■ per box at any drug store. They wotk
1 while you sleep. (Advt.)

b e women of Atlanta spend
f thousands of dollars every Christ-
mas f° r handkerchiefs.
Y°u give handkerchiefs, do you not?
so d° es practically every woman.
Now, the store that can effect economies
for these thousands of women who give thousands
of handkerchiefs will be doing a real and worthy service. And it is
just this service that this store brings to the women of Atlanta
right now.
If there is anything that we have done well this season, it is
the assembling of this wonderful collection of handkerchiefs.
We know they are the prettiest that the same money can buy.
We know that one quality and style after another are priced for
less than elsewhere, we know that varieties here are the greatest
in Atlanta.
We have imported directly from the handkerchief island ot
the world, from Ireland. The handkerchiefs come in bond to us. no
middleman has made one penny of profit on them. The cost of
getting them here for you has been reduced to the very lowest.
But price is not the only reason that we go to Ireland for
handkerchiefs. It is there that the exquisite and exclusive novel
ties are to be found. And as these we have are from one of the
foremost manufacturers of Ireland—we are his sole agent in this
Southern section—-this is really a final resort for Christmas hand
kerchiefs.
Nor is this simply our opinion— customers are very liberal in
their praise. One woman just returned from Paris—-she seemed to
have brought some of the French enthusiasm with her---exclaimed
over the handkerchiefs she saw here, declaring them cheaper and
prettier than any she saw in all Paris.
So see them, see them now while the stock is at its fullest, and
you will appreciate why we are so positive and earnest in our dec
larations about them—every kind and every grade is here.
