THE GIRL OF I

Members of Company Capable

You are Informed ostentatiously j
that "The Girl of My Dreams" la the
product of eminent rompoaera and
librettists These gentlemen nwmt
f have been content to rest on laurels
otherwise won or maybe thla was
a roih order At any rate, it must
be said that ‘The Girl of My Dreams," j
opening at the Atlanta Theater
Thursday night, is not a monumental
stage piece
A musical comedy, which should be
nothing if not brightly effervescent,
that drags Itself aJong with only one
or two songs receiving more than a
single lukewarm encore- well. not
much ran be said for ita appeal.
In the one song that received an ex
reptlonally warm greeting, "Dr. Tin
kle Tinkle advantage was taken of ■
this opportunity of manufacturing an
appeal The chorus was displayed in |
drills that were unique, and the mai
dens. beside* were gaylv arrayed for
once It would have been Just as
easy to dress up the other ensem
bles and thus to give more of a
punch to the whole show.
The company Is not to be blamed
for the lack of cordiality displayed by
the Thursday night audience. There
were many in the cast who deserved |
really brighter lines and better sit
uations. Eda Von Luke, as Daphne,
the sentimental milliner, was as good j
at times as any funny woman who !
has exploited her talents In these
parts recently Hoy Purvlance. In '
leading role, has an excellent vofbe.

PRINCIPAL HOQUIAM
SCHOOL RECOVERS
FROM DIABETES
It was nearly three years ago when
the physicians attending J. J. Panne-
packer. Principal of the schools of
Hoquiam. Wash., agreed that they could
do nothing more for him. He was bro
ken down with Diabetes and was be
lleved to be Incurable Tests showed 4
per cent of sugar. A recent letter is as
follows:
“lfoauiani. Wash., April 5, 1913
"John I Fulton Co., Gentlemen:
"It Is a long time since I wrote you,
but 1 have not forgotten you nor the
wonderful good Pulton’s Diabetic Com
pound has done for me 1 have almost

some trfore of your literature I call

Secretary of State Phil Cook, ex- j
officio automobile boas of Georgia, Is !
out one large, fat box of perfectly
good cigars not campaign stogies - !
because he couldn't produce a certain j
automobile number to the exact Ilk- :
lng of a certain automobile plutocrat. ’
Said plutocrat Is a genuine Geor
gian. and hankr-red for tab No. 711.1
He felt that he never would get Into |
trouble with anybody if his'ear might j
be tagged with that mystic symbol. ;
He informed Secretary of State Cook |
of thi 1 * desire, and further told him
that along with the request for tag
No. 711 would come a fine box of ci- j
gars, with a note staling that, if the
writer got the tag Cook could keep
the cigars, but If he didn't get the
tag the cigars must come back.
Investigation showed that # tag No
711 long ago went to somebody else
find can not now be duplicated. So
the Secretary had to pass up the ci
gars He says if he had thought of it
he would have reserved tag No. 711
for some such emergency, as he mlgnt
have known iUwould arise sooner or
later.
Taking time by the forelock in an
other direction, however. Colonel
Cook has put aside tag No. 41144—and
he proposes to get a box of cigars fir
that some doy, or know why!
Governor Slaton approves of the
Jim Price variety of Georgia dinner,
such as the one given recently by that
gentleman at the University Club In
Atla ntn.
"Everything at Price’s dinner was
Georgia raised and Georgia bred. The
menu served was rather hearty, but
It was genuinely local. There were
are sorts of varieties of pork—back
bone chitterlh.-i, spareribs. sausage,
Jowl, and what not. It all came from
a good Georgia farm and It was fine
eating ’ said the Governor to-day.
”1 enjoy a dinner of Georgia prod
ucts a little bit more than any other
kind. Price’s was a fine one—and 1
hope he never will overlook me when
framing one up!”
South Georgia apparently has put In
something of a bid to fame as Nort i J
Georgia’s rival In the matter of |
“moonshine” distilling.
Deputy Collector of Internal Revs- !
nue Cooley, of the South* rn District
of Georgia, recently nosed out an II-
ii<-it still about sight miles from
Thomasvllle. and promptly confis
cated the outfit. Mr. Cooley found
several barrels of beer and booze, and
everything showed that the still had
been In very recent operation.
There have been reports very fre
quently of stills around Thomas
County, especially In the lower part
of It, but they have been hard to lo
cate, as witnesses summoned always
fail to testify “satisfactorily," «.r
something or other.
If they are going to manufacture it
In South Georgia by the wholesale,
they will have to quit calling it gen
erally "mountain dew.” anyway, as
there are no mountains in South
Georgia.
A rather slllv story designed orig
inally as a Joke, perhaps—has been
going the rounds of the press In
Georgia concerning Judge Samuel B.
Adams, of Savannah, and some re
cently expressed views of his In re
spect to woman’s suffrage
Judge Adams gave to the press a
few days ago a very scholarly and
dignified argument against woman
suffrage, which attracted great atten
tion throughout the State. A few
days later a story was sent out from
Savannah to the effect that the judge
had been swamped with protesting
letters from sll quarters, and thu
"sharp division actually had arisen In
his family” because of the - lews ex
pressed.
At first the Judge looked upon the
matter as a Joke, If a rather poor one,
but later It became more or less em
barrassing. and now It seems to re
quire a mild measure of polite denial.
As a matter of fact, the judge has
received only a few letters concerning
his article, all of them commending if
Nobody has protested to him about
It, although many people doubtlss*
entertain views entirely different
from those expressed by the judge.
And as to division in his household
that, of course, Is absurd.
Judge Samuel B. Adams Is one of
Georgia’s most splendid men—an able
lawyer, a Just Judge, a student and a
scholar His fear of woman suffrage
is that 1t might make woman less
womanly—and that Is the one fear,
moreover, of many people who hon
estly and heartily enou~h believe oth
erwise in the righteousness of the
cause.
Speaker William H Rurwell.
Hancock Coun . Is In Atlanta for a
day or two.
Mr. Rurwell will be a candidate *>r
re-election to the House next year—l
although It is an open secret that he
might go to the Senate unopposed. If
he wished to and will be a candi
date to succeed himself as Speaker
It doe** not seem at all ’ikely that
Rurwell will be opposed for re-elec

Speakership He has made a splen

It has been he custom in Georgia
