Pulling Against Handicaps The average man has about all he can do to get ahead without bucking the setbacks to mind and body from Coffee Drinking \ ( offee isn t a food. Anything not a food which is taken into the system makes the eliminative processes work overtime to throw it off. Often the unprofitable thing, when taken regularly, accumulates faster than it can be eliminated, *and becomes a destroyer. Besides, coffee contains caffeine, a subtle, poison ous drug—about 2\i grains to the cup. It is well known that caffeine frequently causes heart trouble, nervousness, sleeplessness and biliousness—serious handicaps to progress and comfort. If something is hindering your efforts, try the sim ple test of leaving off coffee ten days and using Pos- tum. If after a few days you begin to feel better—sleep well, nerves steady up and brain gets clear, you will know how to avoid that kind of trouble. Postum, made only of prime wheat and a small per cent of New Orleans molasses, is a pure food- drink—wholesome, nourishing and delicious. It is absolutely free from caffeine or any other drug. Postum now comes in two forms. Regular Postum—must be well boiled to bring out its delightful flavour and food value. Instant Postum—(the new form) is a soluble powder. A teaspoonful stirred in a cup of hot water makes a delicious beverage instantly. Add sugar and cream to taste. “There’s a Reason” for POSTUM Sold by grocers everywhere Sidelights on GEORGIA POLITICS JAMES B.NEVTN TECH NIGHT CUSS WILEY URGES PURE RECORD EXPECTED MILK FOB BURIES Th« apportionment nf the Stnt. school fund, a* announced by tho Su perintendent of Schools, will glvg very general satisfaction throughout Geor Kia, In all the rireumstan<'es of the set me The per capita sum allotted to each pupil baa been decreased this year cents, but this is accounted for by the fact that the new school census show* a decided increase in school population, with no material Increase in appropriations. Most of the counties will g t as much as formerly, and some more, notwithstanding the lower per capita rate, and this because of the Increased school-at tending population, of course. There are two new counties included In this year s apportionment, too. as Bleckley and Wheeler have not here tofore been accounted for in making up the lists. The legislative appropriations to the common schools have not been mate rially increased for several years, be cause there has been no money in sight with which to make the in creases. At the same time, some sources of revenue heretofore de voted to the school fund have been cut off. If the new tax equalization law operates as it is expected to, it ’* altogether probable that the school fund may be increased within the next year or so to a most appre ciable extent. And it was the hope of raising additional revenue with which to augment this sum that decided some members of the J legislature, and perhaps many, to vote f r the new law. The new r equalization act is ex pected to bring in much more revenue than formerly, and that without rais ing the tax rate at all—it was de signed to ‘dig up,’ properly not now on the statute books, and If the “dig ging" Is anything like as good as It promises to be, the increase In rev enue will be very heavy, and the tax rate, at the same time, bids fair to slump most happily. And if that comes to pass, the com mon schools of the State will be the first to benefit by the new law— which generallv is agreed to be right and as it should be. Former Sheriff "Shade" Hawes, of the Georgia Prison Commission force, who hailj from the town along the Georgia Road made famous by ‘‘Tom" Watson, has a dog that barks Joy ously when the Georgia train comes into Thomson from Augusta on its way to Atlanta, and yelps mournfully when it comes into town on its way from Atlanta to Augusta. “I have studied my head off to de termine what that dog means by such tactics." said Mr. Hawkes to-day. "and I think I have decided the mat ter. For some reason, lie seems to like things up the road and hate them down. He gets griad, wags his tall, and barks happily when a train is headed for Atlanta, but lie gets correspondingly peeved and yelps like he had lost his last friend when a THE PLAYS THIS WEEK train comes along headed for Augus- • a Why he has a grouch against Augusta 1 can not say, but if there Is anything In dog language, as I under stand It, that dog has no love for Au- gusta!" The Lawrenceville News-Herald fails to see any politics much in the prohibition question That esteemed contemporary, in the current week’e issue, says: "One of our exchanges prints a column editorial in answer to the query, 'Why do blind tigers flourish in our community?' That's easy, but he didn’t hit the spot, sr» we’ll post him: It Is because the folks in your neighborhood like liquor. Reform ihem, and the tigers will perish." Visitors to the State Department of Agriculture nowadays need not be the least surprised to find’ Commissioner Price out. As a matter of fact, he has ?<sen "In” very little this week, and the Ataaon Is not far to seek. No man Is more interested than he In the boys' corn show, now in progress in the Capitol corridors, and every mo ment of spars time the Commissioner has Is spent outside his office, showing visitors around the exhibition and ex pressing to them expert opinions as to this, that or the other feature of the same. Mr Price is, as everybody knows, a practical farmer on his own account, and has been generally most successful. He admits ungrudgingly, nevertheless, that these corn club boys have taught him much as to the best methods of growing corn, and he frankly advises farmers all about to study and emu late the examples of the youngsters. "This year’s corn show la bigger and better than last year's remarkable ex hibition," said Mr, Price to-day. "and it Is going to get bigger and better every year. The throngs of people visiting the Capital to look It over have been immense and that is most gratifying The boys are doing a great work for Georgia, and the interest exhibited by the public in their efforts encourages them immensely to even braver things next year. I am proud of the com show immeasurably so!" The original "pioneer citizen" of Rome passed away on Wednesday of this week when Miss Amanda Jack, aged 78. died. The Legislature of Georgia Incorpo rated Rome in 1834. and Miss Jack was born the following year within a few weeks of the legislative act of incorpo ration. Rome then was the merest vil lage, numbering perhaps a hundred peo ple. When this "first” citizen was born, the Indians were more numerous around and about Floyd County than the whites or perhaps as numerous anyway. Miss Amanda Jack was known of everybody in Rome, arid was genuinely beloved and looked upon as the "orig inal settler." so to speak. She was ex tensively connected by both blood and marriage all over Floyd County, and had relatives in Atlanta «uid other parts of the State. Governor Slaton, in an interview pub lished in The New York American on Wednesday, expressed most happily and strikingly the unusual quality of pros perity now' abiding in Georgia, when he stated that "there is a bale of cotton In Georgia for every man. woman and child therein!" And when you come to figure it out, the Governor’s statement is true The cotton crop in the State, by bales, and the population almost balances, with the answer a little bit in favor of the cot ton. In other words, the Governor’s state ment 1b a trifle more than true—there is or is estimated to be a. fraction more than a hale of cotton per capita in Geor gia this year. Winter Term of Evening School Begins December 10—Appli cations Coming In. Professor J. N G. Xesblt, head cf the Tech Night School, said Thursday that Indications point to a record- breaking attendance for the winter term, which begins December 10. The enrollment for the fall term, which began in September, was 170, bv far the largest of any year since the foundation of the school, and ap plications for admission to the winter term are already coming In. Attendance on the night school is free, and represents the endeavor of the State of Georgia to furnish free to those who can not attend & tech nological school in the day time, or. who are not financially able to stand the expense, exactly the same kind of training in a night school without any cost whatever, except the $3 contin gent fee on registration. Registration this year begins Mon day, December 8, and goes through the 11th. By a convenient arrange ment the boy or man who enters night school for the winter term loses noth ing by not having entered in the fall, lie takes up the, work at the same point he would have begun it in Sep tember. All kinds of electrical and machine-shop work, woodwork, draw ing, engineering, designing, chemistry, mathematics and similar branches are taught. The selection of studies is op tional. Arrest Senator and Lieutenant Governor VICKSBURG. MISS., Dec. 4.—Mis sissippi's complicated political situa tion was further entagled by the ar rest here of the State’s Lieutenant Governor. Theodore Rilbo, and one of its most active State Senators, G. W. Hobbs, following their indictment for receiving $200 and agreeing to re ceive $2,000 more to use their vote* and influence in the next Legislature for passage of a bill creating a new county in the “delta." Hobbs was arrested at Jackson, and Bilbo surrendered at Vicksburg, and each Immediately gave bond for $5,- 000. Food Expert Lectures Between Trains in Atlanta on ‘'How to Feed Infants.” If there is one thing that Interests Dr. H \V Wiley, food expert, mote than anything else, it Is pure food for babies. That is because Dr. Wiley has a baby of his own, perhaps—although he had much to say about milk for babies long before W. W., Jr., came along, about nineteen months ago. Dr. Wiley passed through Atlanta Wednesday, and between trains at the Terminal Station he delivered a lecture, Illustrated (by request) with the photograph of the youthful scion of the House of Wiley. "You put policemen at the cross ings to save lives—now put them at the milk bottle from which the ba bies drink,” he said. "You might be shocked to learn how many more lives are sacrificed every year to impure milk than are lost in traffic acci dents.” As to “Doc, Jr.?’ his father says there was no eugenic mystery' about the robust health of the young man "He gets the right sort of food," said Dr. Wiley. "After weaning, the little fellow had the milk of a Hol stein cow, tuberculine-tested and in every respect healthy." U. S.
