Watch Barometer,
Business Men Are j
Advised by Scott j
BOSTON, Dec. 19.—Business
men should conduct their affairs
on the advice of the barometer,
according to Dr Colin R. Scott, <
professor of psychology in the
Boston Normal School.
“When the barometer is hi flH," <
says Dr. Scott, “pulses are high
( and there is activity everywhere.
In April, May, June and July, '
when the pressure is low, there
are more violent crimes, house
breakings and murders. Also there
are more suicides. This is because
of the depression caused by the
low pressure.”
i ' Dr Scott's theory is that mer
chants should take advantage of
tHe activity of the people to make
their best offerings.

Dinner to Adamson
'Most Remarkable,'
Says W. H. Hillyer
William Hurd Hillyer. wpo, with
, Alfred C. Newell, was appointed to
represent the Atlanta Chamber of
! Commerce at the dinner given to
Robert Adamson in New York on
j December 15, returned to Atlanta
i Thursday. Mr. Hillyer said the din
ner was the most remark » de trib-
I ute ever paid to a native Georgian
j in the metropolis, and in some re
spects the most remarkable ever re
vived by any citizen ther“
The dinner was entirely unofficial
' in character,” said Mr. Hillyer. ‘‘It
was the spontaneous utterance of a
. , ntiment existing in the hearts of
i N<*w York's best people. Seven hun-
j dred of her most prominent citizens,
representing every political faith and
j all classes of business and profes-
' signal life, volunteered to act, as hosts
j on the occasion, in honor of the man
whose brilliant and unselfish efforts
had resulted irj the triumph of the
| Fusion ticket at the, recent election.
The speeches were in excellent
j taste and reflected the high opinion
j in which Mr. Adamson is held. Oeor-
' gia should be proud of Robert Adam
son now that he has become, in the
language of one of the speakers, ‘Fa
ther Knickerbocker's fair-haired
j boy.' ”

CAREFULLY TREAT
CHILDREN’S COLDS
Negiect of children's colds often •
lays the foundation of serious lung ,
trouble in later life. On the other {
hand, it is harmful to continually '
dose delicate little stomachs with in
ternal medicines or to keep the chil- <
dren always indoors. The ideal way •
to avoid colds is to keep plenty of
fresh air in the bedroom and at the e
hrst sign of trouble apply Vick's
“Vap-O-Rub” Croup and Pneumonia
Salve over the throat and chest, cov
ering with a warm flannel cloth.
The body heat releases antiseptic {
vapors that are inhaled all night
long, opening the air passages and
healing the inflamed membrane. In
addition Vick’s Is absorbed through
the skin, taking out the soreness
and tightness. Vick’s contains no
harmful drugs whatever. At drug
gists’—25c, 60c and $1.00.
