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 2ai|y Inquiries about the Compound that cured rrte. and 1 am writing to usk for some trfore of your literature I call myself well, although 1 am still taking the Compound.

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 tion either to the House or to the Speakership He has made a splen did record thus far, is popular and !s universally agreed to he an unusually aide presiding officer.
