S DELUGE OF FUFF VOTES CLOSES L Hixon-Searcy Bill Merely Goes Over Until Next Year, Awaiting Decision on U. S, Statute, That the Hlxon-Searcey bill, pro posing to extend the Webb bill pro visions to Georgia, was not killed outright in the House Temperance Committee,• rather than sent over to next session in charge of a sub committee, is due to the work of Mr. Ennis, of Baldwin. When the question of this bill’s probable unconstitutionally was raised in the committee, it was pointed out that the Webb law is being tested in the United States courts, and that by this time next year it will be ruled upon finally. If the law Is upheld, it was contended, Georgia might extend its laws to meet the Federal statute. If ruled unconstitutional, however, Georgia would lose nothing by waiting. In addition to this, it was shown that to pass the law now simply would shut off approximately $300,- 060 already on hand, and more to ac cumulate within the year, would pile up a total deficit to the appalling ex tent of over $1,000,000. ' When these things were made clear to the committee, a disposition was evident upon the part of several members to kill the bill outright, with the idea that it might be rein troduced in the next Legislature, if it then seemed advisable? tax reform having been enacted in the mean time and the present deficit wiped out. Mr. Ennis, vice chairman of the committee, strenuously objected to the bill s slaughter in the commit tee, however, and prevailed upon his colleagues to refer the entire mat ter to a sub-committee for a report next session, rather than let the bill go to its death in this Legislature. The bill was given that direction, and Mr Ennis was made vic e chair man of the committee having the measure in charge.

Pony Contest Manager Repeats Warning That No Contestant Is Safe—Shetlands Parade. '•Red Letter Ballots" came in an avalanche Tuesday afternoon and evening, burying the clerks in the contest manager’s office. This was the last bonus offer, the Inst bit of help for the boys and girls w’ho are striving for The Georgian and American ponies. Wednesday, Thurs day—Thursday midnight, and the race is over. Admiring crow'ds in the business district of Atlanta stood along the sidewalks Wednesday morning to see the 22 ponies which will go to the two winners in each of eleven dis tricts. Though unused to city sights, the ponies behaved very well, and certainly made a splendid showing. District Races Clos®. There is just one tiling for the boys and girls to remember—it all will be over Thursday at midnight. There are close races in almost every dis trict. The hoy or girl who is nosed out of first place by a very few votes will regret for years that he did not see just a few more people the last day; that he did not try for at least one more subscription than the num ber he thought enough. Some of the most confident—the bragging sort—are in most danger of losing. This is the "tip" from the contest manager. No one is safe. And Thursday is at hand. Followed Advice. Hardly one of the contestants over looked his opportunity, offered by the "Red Letter Ballots,” to get 2.000 votes for $2. Some *of the boys and girls brought in dozens of these "Red Letter Ballots.” They followed the advice of the con test manager and concentrated all their efforts on subscriptions to The Sunday American up until Tuesday night. That offer now is history. A brief, sharp sprint, with no favors asked or given, and the pony contest will end in a blaze of glory.

This because coffee contains the poisonous drug, caffeine. • A prominent business man of Memphis, Tenn., writes under date of April 21. 1913, of his experience in quitting coffee. He says: I*or a number of years 1 had been a great sufferer from headaches and indigestion. About January first of this year 1 left off coffee and began the use of Instant Pos- tum. Since getting from under the influence of coffee, headaches have caused. I can eat anything I want to, and have no indigestion. In addition to this I have gained in weight. ‘1 attribute it all to the stopping of coffee .and the use of Postum. I write this letter simply to add my testimony to the many you already have, and to induce some fellow' sufferer to get relief by quitting coffee and turning to Instant Postum as a morning beverage.” (Name given on request.) Instant Postum is a pure food-drink, made only of clean, roasted whole wheat and a small quantity oL molasses. It contains no drug whatever, but does contain the vital phosphates of the grain which are ssential for the upbuilding of brain and nerve and muscle tissue. li something interferes with your comfort, suppose you try leaving off coffee and use Instant Postum. Postum comes in two forms. Regular Postum (must be boiled.) Instant Postum doesn’t require boiling, but is prepared instantly by stirring a level teaspoonful in an ordinary cup of hot water and adding cream and sugar to taste. A level teaspoonful makes it right for most people. Some use a heaping teaspoonful and temper it with plenty of cream, and it has a delightfully snappy flavor that is won derfully pleasing.
