GOT AWAY WITH SOMETHING
Old Ben's Forebodings Turned Out
to Be Correct, Though Booty
Was Not Valuable.
Old Ben was a kleptomaniac. He
realized his failing, which caused him
•uch keen humiliation that. It was
with difficulty he could be persuaded
to enter the homes of any of the
neighbors.
One evening an old friend of Ben’s
returned to the town for a visit and
called on Ben. Later he proposed they
go together to make a call on a mu¬
tual friend, but, to his surprise, Ben
refused.
“No, no,” he cried, shaking his head,
"I can’t go.’’
"Why not?” asked his friend. “It's
only a step away, and It’s not late
now; besides 1 don’t know when I’ll
be round these parts again.”
“Well,” said Ben, “you know how 1
always steal, but If you promise to
watch me, and see I take nothing, I'll
go.”
“Ben," said his friend, as they re¬
turned, “you did nobly. I watched you
every minute, and you never took a
thing’”
"Don’t," ginned Ben, as he pulled
a moist rag out of his pocket. 'Tve
got the dishcloth!”
The Difference.
“That, fake doctor’s cares are not
patent.”
"Perhaps not, but his medicines
are."

IKE GARDENS OF
Q
w
MOVEMENT TO START GARDENS
IN CITY BACK YARDS BY
SCHOOL CHILDREN.
WANT HELP FROM TEACHERS
Move to Keep City Children Out
Harmful Moving Picture
Shows.
—Atlanta.
Following closely upon the sugges¬
tion made a tthe meeting of the City
Federation of Women’s Clubs when
Councilman Ashley advised that the
club women start a crusade to make
back yards as perfect as front yards,
comes the word from Miss Celeste
Parrish, supervisor of rural schools in
Georgia. Miss Parrish would have tne
children in Atlanta start the movement
of making gardens in city back yards.
Relative to the work Miss Parrish
states;
“Back yard gardening is one of the
revelations to modern city life. As an
occupation for children-, it has no
equal. The exercise furnished by it
brings into play every part of the
body, and, since it mus tbe done in
the fresh air and sunshine, it includes
many hygienic factors. It arouses a
high order of intellectual interest, and
reacts in a moral way. If the children
of Atlanta could be persuaded to un¬
dertake it, it would be a city analogue
of the corn and eannig clubs of the
country, in the end it would be an
economic asset for Atlant aim'd would
do much to solve many of the moral
problems which now perplex us. For
one thing, it would help to keep the
children off the streets, out of the
harmful moving pictuer shows and in
‘God’s great out of doors.'
"With the co-operation of the teach¬
ers of the city, every child could be
easily reached. With some of the inter¬
est now manifested by our splendid
chamber of commerce in the children,
the success of this movement for the
city children would be assured.
“There are practically no city lots
too small for the work. One square
lot, cultivated intensively, and plant¬
ed with reference to constant succes¬
sion, has been known to furnish a fam¬
ily of four or five with a variety of
delicious vegetables. Vacant lots could
now and then be secured for larger
enterprises than the home lot would
afford.
“Miss Beaufort Matthews, 428
Peachtree street, Atlanta, is Interest¬
ed in this work, and is anxious to
serve the city children by stimulating
the movement. She seems to me to
be eminently fitted for the task, and
I hope that she will have the co-opera¬
tion of every good man and woman in
Atlanta. I entreat the various agen¬
cies for civic betterment and child wel¬
fare to give her their cordial support.”
John Carson "Boss Fiddler.”
Old John Carson, grinning and
chuckling to himself, tied his fiddle
up in its muslin hag, tucked his $50
prize and his state championship cer¬
tificate in his boot leg. and started
back to Blue Ridge to sppend the bal¬
ance of his natural life telling the
folks how he proved himself boss fid¬
dler of Georgia.
Shorty Harper, also elated, took his
$35 second prize and started for Mon¬
roe to explain how he just missed
the "champeenship.” He will prove
what he says by the fact that he
stood second.
Joel Hudson just took his third
prize of $25 and went home, satisfied
to be “in the money.” Trailing after
Hudson came a dozen others, lugging
their fiddles and some portion of tbe
additional $200 divided between them
by the judges.
Thus closed the three days’ fid¬
dling contest at the auditorium to de¬
termine who of all Georgia’s fiddlers
is the fuldlingest fiddler.
Washington's Birthday Observed.
Despite the fact that the actual date
of the birth of the Father of His
Sountry fell on Sunday, the banks, city
and county offices, also the state and
national departments, took cognizance
of the event on the 23rd.
Just as Atlanta begins to really ap¬
preciate that Washington's birthday
has, from the calendar standpoint,
passed, in far-off Guam, on the Philip¬
pine archipelago, will be a first salut¬
ing the flag in honor of the event. The
only object in bringing this point out
is to show that the date may not fall
exactly on the same hour the world
'round or even in Atlanta.
In fact, one good old mammy “bo'n
tw o years befo' freedom” told her mis¬
tress when informed that the day was
the one on which George Washington
first saw the light, that she was "pow¬
erful glad that was so ’cause no one
in her family could ever tell her just
when her older brother had been
born,”
It seems that an older brother had
been named George Washington,

Senate Senator Bacon’s Estate $200,000.
The will of Senator A. O. Bacon, dis¬
posing of an estate valued easily at
$200,000, has been offered for probate
in the court of Ordinary Wiley at Ma¬
con.
A. L. Miller, R. C. Jordan, Custis
Nottingham and Minter Wimberly are
the executors of the estate, and the
trustees for the life estates created
for the heirs.
The principal bequest Is the giving
of Baconfields to the city for a park
as a memorial to his “ever lamented
and only sons,” this to take effect
upon the death of his wife, Mrs, Vir¬
ginia Lamar Sparks, and of his
daughter, Mrs. Willis B. Sparks. This
property comprises seventy-five acres
lying along the car line between
North Highlands and the river, and is
valued approximately now at $75,000.
in addition, he gives the city the sum
of $10,000 in bonds of the Macon
Railway and Light company, for use
in improving the grounds for a park.
The senator’s will was written by
himself in Macon in 1909, and a cod¬
icil to it was executed in Washing¬
ton on September 6, 1913. The will
is thirty-two pages in length, and
lawyers who have read it say that it
shows in its every detail the author's
splendid legal ability. The witnesses
to the will were J. M. Hancock, Sid¬
ney W. Htcher and Walter DeFore.
The executors are not required to
give any bonds and no restrictions
whatever are placed upon them. A
Macon lawyer was named one of the
executors in the will, but in the cod¬
icil he is stricken and Minter Wim¬
berly, referred to as "my tried and
trusted friend," is substituted.
The will provides that the main
residence on Baconsfield shall be at
the personal use of Mrs. Bacon dur¬
ing her life, and that all of the fur¬
niture in it is hers unequivocally,
and that she shall have a nannuity of
$1,800 per year.
Sub-Stations for Fighting Weevil.
Alive to the necessity of direct con¬
tact with conditions in south and
middle Georgia, particularly with the
near appproach of the boll weevil,
State Entomologist Lee Worsham
will Immediately establish a sub'-sta
tion of his department in Thomas
county.
Mr. Worsham bes,; nad this plan in
mind for some time .and recently has
been making careful\study of condi¬
tions in order to decire upon the best
location for this station. It will be
permanent in nature, and in direct
charge of Mr. €. S. Spooner, who is
an assistant In the department.
“I felt that the need for this per¬
manent station existed,” said Mr.
Worsham, "and after a careful study
of the matter determined to locate it
In Thomas county. Special attention
will be given to the insects injurious
to, the pecan, now a big and growing
industry in that section, market
crops, cotton, and in fact all other
subjects properly coming under my
line of work.
”1 am gratified to announce that
the government district agents and
other forces will co-operate with us,
and I believe great good will come of
this departure. South Georgia farm¬
ers and others have their peculiar lo¬
cal problems, and I am satisfied that
the department will be broadening its
work by going direct to them. Com¬
petent men will be detailed as need¬
ed to assist Mr. Spooner, who is thor¬
oughly cappablee and an arriest and
conscientious scientist.
"We hope to be of material aid, al¬
so, to farmers in that section in get¬
ting ready for the coming boll weevil
ting ready for the coming of the boll
weevil. We shall help them in every j
way possible.”
The sub-station or branch will be j
established at once.
New Sensations in Frank Case.
Following the recent developments
in which Dr. H. F. Harris, secretary
of the state board of health, declared
that the strands of hair found on the
lathe handle on the second floor of
the pencil factory, where Leo Frank
had offices, was not that of Mary Pha
gan, the condemned man’s attorneys,
were busy preparing to move for a
new trial.
Rube Arnold and Luther Rosser,
Frank's attorneys, intimated the con¬
cealment of other important evidence.
Among other things they said;
“Unless we are mistaken in the
fairness of the people of Fulton coun¬
ty, the admitted facts about the hair
wil lawaken great wonder as to what
other things were concealed and mis¬
represented in the same way.”
Solicitor Dorsey says that there has
been no intent to misrepresent or con¬
ceal any important facL
Robert Barrett, a former employe
of the factory, now claims the $1,000
reward offered by the city of Atlanta
for important evidence leading to the
discovery of the murderers. He says
the finding of the hair did unravel
the mystery.

SAGE TEA DARKENS GRAY
HAIR TO ANY SHADE. TRY IT!
Keep Your Locks Youthful, Dark,
Glossy and Thick With Common
Garden Sage and Sulphur.
When you darken your hair with
Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can
tell, because it’s done so naturally, so
evenly. Preparing this mixture,
though, at home is mussy and trouble¬
some. For 50 cents you can buy at
any drug store the ready-to-use tonic
called "Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy.” You just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time. By morn¬
ing all gray hair disappears, and, after
another application or two, your hair
becomes beautifully darkened, glossy
and luxuriant. You will also dis¬
cover dandruff 1 b gone and hair has
stopped falling.
Gray, faded hair, though no dis¬
grace, is a elgn of old age, and as we
all desire a youthful and attractive ap¬
pearance, get busy at once with Wy¬
eth’s Sage and Sulphur and look years
younger.—Adv.
