1 Combine of ‘Drys' With Anti-Re visionists Broken When House Votes to Reconsider Bills. The combination formed by “dry" members of the House and the mem bers who oppose all tax revision to defeat bills favored by Speaker W H Burwell and Governor Slaton was broken, for the present at least, Fri day morning, when the House voted to reconsider its action Wednesday in defeating the constitutional amend ments limiting the school levy to 2 1-2 mills and the pension levy to 1 1-2 mills. The votes on the motions to recon sider, which were offered by Full- bright, of Burke, were 86 to 67 ami Si* to 58, respectively. The action of the House is re garded as a victory for Speaker Bur- well, and indicates that some of his bills, which are administration meas ures, may be passed In spite of th opposition tax reform foes and “dry” members said to be moved by a de sire for revenge because of failure to get the Webb bill out of commit tee. Bills To Be Put on Passage. With the action of the House re considered. the two bills—the school levy and the pension levy—undoubt edly will be brought up for passage at this session. It is understood they may be placed on the calendar for Saturday or Monday The placing of the bill is solely in the hunds of the Rules Committee, and while its numbers would not convict them selves. one member stated positively that the House would lie given an op portunity to pass the bills during the present session. Speaker Burwell has been hard at work trying to heal the wounds caused by his ruling Wednesday, when he declared the Kidd resolu tion. calling the Hixon-Searcy Hi 11 out of committee, out of order, and indications are he has succeeded. The fight against Fullbright's mo tion to reconsider was feeble, though its voting strength was fuirly large. Wallace Miller, of Bibb County, led the opposition to the motion. He de clared tile fixing of 2 1-2 mills as the limit of levy for school purposes would result in appropriating that amount each year, inasmuch as money is always appropriated up to the limit. Mr. Kidd Is Turned Down. Mr. Fullbright made but a short speech in favor of his motion, de claring the opponents of the bills had defeated them by spreading the er roneous impression that they would increase taxation. Mr. Kidd, of Baker, tried to lead a fight against Speaker Burwell at the opening of the Friday morning Hes ton. His effort tailed, became Speaker Burwell refused to recognize Mr. Kidd. When the report of the Rules Committee was submitted to th«. House, the Speaker asked the usual question: “Is there objection to tl\e adoption of the report?" “I object,” shouted Mr. Kidd, in a tone that could have been heard a block. “The Chair hears none," announced the Speaker. Had Mr. Kidd been able to defeat the report of the Rules Committee, which fixes the work for the day, it was his evident intention to attemm to again introduce his resolution call ing the Hixon-Searcy bill out of committee.

KING HARDWARE CO. 53 Peachtree 87 Whitehall mothers when purchasing Castoria to see that the wrapper bears his signature in black. When the wrapper is removed the same signature appears on both sides of the bottle in red. Parents who have used Castoria for their little ones in the past years need no warning against counterfeits and imitations, but our present duty is to call the attention of the younger generation to the great danger of intro ducing into their families spurious medicines, It is to be regretted that there are people who are now engaged in the nefarious business of putting up and selling ail sorts of substitutes, or what should more properly be termed couterfeits, for medicinal preparations not only for adults, but worse yet, for children’s medicines. It therefore devolves on the mother to scrutinize closely what she gives her child. Adults can do that for themselves but the child has to rely on the mother’s watchfulness.
