Advance in Prices Will Drive Economists to IIomc- Made Hair-Cuts and Every Man Will Be His Own Shampoo Artist. I * Have you a little razor In your homo? If not, "a* Bill Kays,” you had better get ready to shed the wet and briny. The barbers haven't been sleeping all these moons. Their think tanks haven’t been Idly snoozing. e "Just because a !>arber shop Is a cut ting emporium," said one member of •the.tqn$hlM profession, "doesn't-mean that we have to cut prices, too. Nay. nay. We will lend more dignity to a hair cut by raising the price to more eminent position.” This and similar arguments were ad vanced at a recent smoker of barbers. The resolution adopted said that in view of the fact that prices of every thing .pertaining; to the necessities ns well ns the luxuries of life and labor and material Incident to the proper running of a barber shop had so mate- ihilly Increased the prices of work must be increased. "Statistics show,” said the resolu tions. "that every class of labor except the barbers hfd an advance In salary within the past five years. Some were raised voluntarily, while others were raised through hard-fought strikes, loss of life and bloodshed. These are the best indications that the laboring class has not been paid sufficiently and such is the case that confronts us today, we do not help ourselves, who might we expect to help us?” Came Up at Smoker. At n smoker given by the barbers at H9 r-2 South Pryor street Monday night, L. G. Ricketts Intended to speak bn unionism and the labor problem. His subject was wrested from him, how ever, when speakers which preceded him adopted this topic for their re marks. Goaded Into desperation, Mr. Ricketts finally decided to address the meeting on "Higher Prices.” His re marks struck a popular chord and res olutions were drawn up and adopted. That's why the prices In Atlanta’s bar ber shops will be Increased nftet New Years. Here is the new scale of prices: Hair cut. 35 cents; singe, 35 cents; sham poo, 35 cents; head massage, 35 cents; electric or hand massage, 3/i cents; whiskers trimmed, 25 cents; shave, 15 cents.

U is believed that In pally Roman limes there was a bridge of boats over i lie Thames. This gave place to ►irung, narrow structure built by the Roman occupiers on wooden piles. The remains of this Roman bridge were dis covered when the present bridge «ns built. The Roman bridge was burned in 113d, but was repaired. In 1167 the Norman London bridge was begun by Peter, rector of Colechurch, In the reign of King Henry II. It was not | ompleted until 1209. n period of forty- t«o years. In 1282 there was a terri ble- lire on the bridge, both ends burn ing furiously, while 3.000- persons were ' nuglit between the two fires and either burned to death or drowned. In. the fifteenth century there were houses on both sides of the bride, Just as there “1“ on the Ponte Vecchlo In Florence at the present time. In Tudor times the beads of political offenders were stuck over the gates of the bridge. One traveler has recorded the fact that lie witnessed no fewer than 300 of these lerrlble trophies Impaled at various harts of London bridge. In the days of James I the bridge i ol l>,-come the haunt of Jewelers and other small merchants, as we see them "n the old bridge over the Arno today. They succeeded the astrologers and fortune-tellers who had settled there In Tudor days. The bridge suffered heavily In the great lire of London. In 'bo eighteenth century all the old bouses which stood upon it were re moved for reasons of safety. Finally, 'be cost of the continuous repairs be- "‘iiie so heavy that the bridge we now m-i was built. Its recent widening Is '"o familiar to everyone to need men- ' '"'I. For hundreds of years the trafllc "it the bridge has been so great that "ii old saw has It that no one can cross " without seeing, a white horse. The •' Kent of the motor may soon add this *1 saying to the rest of the vanished -lork-al associations of London ridge.—Westminster Gosette. VIVA PRONE TO MIX METAPHOR8. Edwin Markham at n dinner In New York said of mixed metaphors: "When I was teaching In Los Angle* I used to read every week a little coun try paper whose editor's metaphors were an unfailing Joy to me. Once, I remember, this editor wrote of a con temporary: •••Thus the black lie. Issuing from his base throat, becomes u boomerang in his hand, and, hoisting him by his own petard leaves him a marked man for life.' "Ho said In an article on home life: •The faithful watch dog or the good wife standing at the door welcomes the master home with honest hark.' "Another time on a more personal matter he declared: ‘Our cow has been milked in the pasture for three morn ings running before wo got around to It. We know who the miscreant Is, and if he does It again we will mention his name, let the chips fall where they will/ "In an obituary of a farmer he .note: ’.The race was run at last. Like a tired steed, he crossed the harbor bar and. casting aside whip and spur, lay diAvn upon that bourne from which no traveler returns.”’ Negro Quite Chattanooga. ttclul to The Georgian. „ ...

The old saying of giving a man a “white pine overcoat," meaning thereby the coveting provided by the under taker as a fast and outside shell, is likely to be realized in a more prac tical way. and for the living, for cloth ing is now being made from wood, more strictly speaking, wood pulp. The extreme cheapness and durability clothing made from this material f very important Item and will solve the question of cheap clothing for the workingman. For a long time collars, shirts, napkins, tablecloths and other fabrics have been made from the fiber of hemp, though this fiber is scarcely to be called wood, for It is separated from the woody matter of the stalk in practically the same manrter as is the fiber from flax, but, being coarse, long er and not often used for anything but coarse cloth, bagging, etc. The material for w’ood clothing is a different process, the wood being ground and macerat ed to a pulp, and when of proper con sistency the mixture In forced through holes in iron plates, coming out In long strings from one-half to one-quArter Inch in thickness. While moist these strings are very easily broken, but when dried and tightly twisted and then woven Into fabric they become strong, elastic and durable. Ere long the department stores will have wood clothing for sale on their counters, even if mere!) to show they are keeping up to the times. And thus another and a very large use for timber and lumbei looms up, but In this case culls and waste stuff can be used, principal^ pine and spruce. Mrs. Bridget Carey, who Is In Jail In Philadelphia, accused of having put two of her children, her husband und two other persons to death by poison, presumably In order to get Insurance money. The remarkable expression of eyes and mouth Is shown strikingly. Below is a picture showing Mrs. Carey in street costume. EX-MAYOR SETH LOW IN MONTGOMERY; SPEAKS TONIGHT Special to The Georgian.

And (here hs* been days together—and and many a weary week— We was both of us cross and spunky, and both too proud to speak; And I have been thlnkin'- and thinker, the whole of the winter and fall. If I can't live kind with a woman, why. then, I won't live at all. And so I.have talked with Betsy, and Betsy ha* talked with me. And we have agreed together that we can’t never agree; Only we've "lived! together as long as1 * nd we can (Published by Request) Draw up the papers, lawyer, and make 'em good nnd stout; For things at home are crossways, and Betsy and I are out. We, who have worked together ao long a* man and wife. Must pull In single harness for the rest of our nat'ral life. What Is the matter?" says you. I swan. It's hard to tell! Most of , the years behind us we’ve ■ passed by very well; I hare no other wc man, she has no other man— So I have talked with Betsy, and Betsy has talked with me. And so we've .agreed together that we Coni never agree— Not-that we’ve, eatelied each other In any terrible crime; We’ve been n-gatherlng this for years, a little at a time. There was a stock of temper we both had for a start. Although we never suspected i would take u* two apurt; I bad mi’ various fallings, bred In the ntish and bone: And -Betsy, like all good wolritn, bad a temper.of her own. The first thing I remember whereon disagreed Was something concerning heaven—a difference In our creed; We arg'ed the thing at breakfast, w arg’ed the thing at tea; An<l the more we arg'ed the question the more we didn't agree. And the next that I remember was when we lost a cow; She had kicked the bucket for certain, the question was only—How'. I held my own opinion, and Betsy an other had: And when we were done a-talkin', we both of us was mad. And the next that I remember. It start ed In a joke; But for a full week It lasted, and neither of us spoke. And the next was because I scolded because she broke a bowl. And she said I was mean and stingy und hadn't any soul. And so that bowl kept pouring dis sensions In our cur; And so that blamed cow-critter was always a-connn' up; And so tnet heaver we arg'ed no nearer to it* got. But It gave us it taste of somethin' a thousand Units or hut And so the thing ki'i t v.orkln'. and all the self-same way; Ai\var* 'Oimtilin' to irg’e. a,id some thin' sharp to say; A ad down on us com* the neighbors. I wliut Is mine shall be mine; 1 And I'll put It In the agreement, and take It to her tc sign Write on the paper, lawyer—the very llrst paragraph— Of all the farm and live stock that she shall have her half; For she has helped to earn It, through many a weary day, And It’s nothing more than Justice that Betsy has her pay. Give her the house and homestead— a man can thrive and roam, But wrtmen are skeery critters unless they have a home; And 1 have always determined, and never failed to say, That Betsy never should want a home if I was taken away. There Is a little hard money that's In' tol'rable pay— A couple of hundred dollars laid by for a rainy day— Hafe In the hands of good men, and easy to get at; Put In another clause there, and give Iter half of that. Yes, I see you smile, sir, at my gfvln' her so much! Yes, divorce Is cheap, sir, but I take no mock In such! True and fair I married her, when she was blithe and young.’ And Betsy wit* always good to me, ex- eptln' with her tongue. Once, when I was young as you, and not so smart, perhaps. For me she mlttened a- lawyer, and several other.chaps; And nil of them was flustered and fair ly taken down. And 1 for a time was counted the luck- lest man In town. Once when I had a fever—1 won't for get It soon— as hot as a basted turkey und crazy as a loon: Never an hour went by me when she out of sight; fthe nursed nte true and tender, nnd stuck to me day und night. And If ever a house was tidy, and ever a kitchen clean, Her house and kitchen waa tidy aa any 1 ever seen; And 1 don't complain of Betsy, or any HOLIDAY OPENING AT THE McClure Bazaar, - 97 Peachtree Street, Tomorrow, Friday.
