Wimbish, 24 year." old, of 777 Ashby Street, at the request of the mother of Miss Ella Kate Mann, 18 years old, of East Point. Mr" Mann charges Wimbish with having committed a bigamous marriage with her daughter. Wimbish eloped with Miss Mann last December.

Wimbish Denies Bigamy Charge. ■’ While Wimbish denies he is married to Mise Mann, that charge has been placed against him by Mrs. Mann, wno avers he has a wife in Birming ham. It was because of that fact which she declares Wimbish admitted to her last December, that she ob jected to iiis attentions u> her daugh ter. • Wimbish Tuesday morning admitted again he had been married before he ‘met Miss Mann. He declared, though, he had been separated from hiv wife two* years, and, while they had ne\ er been divorced to his knowledge, She had remarried. “I love Ella,” said Wimbish, “and I’ll marry her as soon as I can de termine my marital status with my former wife - .” “My former wife was Ola May Jones, of Atlanta. In 19o9 I fell in love with her. Her parents objected to the marriage, so we eloped. Her folks had me arrested. Then I mar ried her and we left the city, but sep arated May 13. 1909. She went to Birmingham and married again, 1 hear. Whether she got a divorce or not I don’t know. I was never served with any papers. / Got. in Trouble Again. “Later I got into trouble with an other girl and Avas again arrested. When released 1 came back to Atlanta and met Miss JVlann. When I told aing- and I guessed were divorced by that time, she told me not to come about her daughter again. “To do this,was impossible. I loved Ella and she loved me. We met se cretly and planned the elopement. I told her we would get married just as soon as 1 could find out how I stood with my wife; that I thoughf we were divorced. Arrested on Return. "Ella and 1 left Atlanta December 14. 1912. We traveled all around the State, but did not go outside of the Georgia boundaries. Later I decided to come back to Atlanta and see if I could not get work* to support us un til things could be straightened out. 1 had no. sooner set foot in this city than I was arrested.” Wimbiffh says Mis* Mann is happy and living in a nearby town, though not ^s his wife. According to G. N. Bullock, the policeman who took Wimbish into custody, the prisoner stated at first he had three wives.

Foods That Bind Little Children % Start Them Off Right with a Good Laxative and Then Watch Their Diet. Mothers are often unconsciously very careles* about the diet of their children, forcing all to eat the same foods. The fact is that all foods do not agree alike with different per sons. He’hce. avoid what seems to constipate the child or to give it indigestion, and urge it to take more of what is quickly digested. If the child shows a tendency to constipation it should immediately be given a mild laxative to help the bowels. By this is not meant a physic or purgative, for these should never be given to children, nor anything like salts, pills, etc. What the child requires is simply a small dose of the gentlest of medi cines. such as Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, which in the opinion of thousands of x watchful mothers is the ideal remedy for any child showing a tendency to constipation. So many things can happen to a constipated child that care is nec essary. Colds, piles, headaches, sleeplessness, and many other an noyances that children should not have can usually be traced to con stipation. Many of America's foremost, fam ilies are never without Syrup Pep sin, because one can never tell when some member of the family may need it, and all can use it.
