PIONEERS OF THE FRONTIER
Red-Blooded Men and Women Were
Those Who Carved an Empire
From Wilderness.
No doubt the "run of the continent”
has improved the fiber of the Ameri¬
can people. Of course, the well estab¬
lished and the intellectuals had no mo¬
tive to seek the west; but in energy
and venturesomeness those who sought
the frontier were superior to the
average of those In their class who
stayed behind. It was the pike rather
than the carp that found their way
out of the pool. Now, In the main,
those who pushed through the open
door of opportunity left more children
than their fellows who did not. Often
themselves members of large families,
they had fecundity, as it were, in the
blood. With land abundant and the
Oat look encouraging, narrow!™' mhmle^
earlier. In the or the
young west, love and family were
stronger Interests than In the older
society; hence all married. Thanks
to cheap living and to the need of
helpers, the big family was welcomed.
Living by agriculture, the west knew
little of cities, manufactures, social
rivalry, luxury and a Berving class, all
foes of rapid multiplication.—From
"Origins of the American People,” by
Prof. Edward A. Ross, in the Century.
Then the Apparatus Is in Demand.
A visitor was being shown through
a lid lifting “athletic.'’ club. The chief
attraction seemed to be the liquid
gymnastic department. However, there
was a cheaply equipped gymnasium
which showed evidences of disuse.
There was dust on the Indian clubs
and cobwebs on the dumbbells.
"Don’t the members ever use this
equipment?” the visitor asked.
"Oh, yes, occasionally—when a fight
starts,” was the reply.
A successful man must expect to be
envied and abused as well as to be
admired and respected.
LIFE’S ROAD
Smoothed by Change of Food.
Worry is a big load to carry and an
unnecessary one. When accompanied
by indigestion it certainly is cause for
the blues.
But the whole trouble may be easily
thrown off and life’s road be made
easy and comfortable by proper eating
and the cultivation of good cheer.
Read what a Troy woman says;
"Two years ago I made the acquaint¬
ance of Grape-Nuts and have used the
food once a day and sometimes twice,
ever since.
“At the time I began to use it life
was a burden. I was for years afflict¬
ed with bilious sick headache, caused
by indigestion, and nothing seemed to
relieve me.
’’The trouble became so severe I
had to leave my work for days at a
time.
“My nerves were in such a state I
could not sleep and the doctor said I
was on the verge of nervous prostra¬
tion. I saw an adv. concerning Grape
Nuts and bought a package for trial.
"What Grape-Nuts has done for me
is certainly marvelous. I can now
sleep like a child, am entirely free
from the old trouble and have not had
a headache in over a year. I feel like
a new person. 1 have recommended it
to others. One-man I knew ate prin¬
cipally Grape-Nuts while working on
the ice all winter, and said he never
felt better in his life.”

BIG INCREASE IN
G1E LICENSES
BELIEVED LICENSES WILL RUN
OVER THOUSAND AHEAD
OF LAST YEAR.
ALL RETURNS NOT YET IN
Game Law is Being Better Observed
Throughout the State Says
Warden Davis,
-—Atlanta.
While hll the reports and returns
are not yet in for the 1913-14 game
season, which closed on March 1st,
State Game Warden Davis believes
the sale of state licenses will run
fully 1,000 ahead of last season and
sounty licenses 000 or more.
He received a report arid remit-
tance of $417.50 from the game war¬
den in Thomas county, representing
the business for month of February.
Many eastern people go there for
this month and the sale of non-resi¬
dent hunting licenses numbered
thirty-four at $15 each.
The fcompleted returns for Fulton
county show a decided increase in
the sale of licenses over the previous
season. For 1912-13, the figures
were: county, 93, state 576, non-resi¬
dent 9. While this average will not
keep up all over the state, still it
forms an indication in the growth of
business.
"It shows also that the law is be¬
ing better observed,” said Warden
Davis. . "That local wardens are do¬
ing more effective work in seeing
that all hunters have a license and
are not guilty of trespass. The jub-
11c is also showing greater wiiling
ness in helping to preserve the game
of the state and to see that every¬
one tracks the law. While figures
are not available yet on prosecutions,
I know a greater per cent, of con¬
victions have been secured against
those arrested on I charges than ever
before.
“One of the Savannah wardens
told me recently that it was a rare
thing now to see a negro with a gun,
whereas under former conditions
hundreds of them made a living by
pot-hunting. With this privilege
gone, tire negro is getting rid also of
his dogs, another source of game
loss. We have secured some con¬
victions already for dove-baiting and
several other cases are to he heard.
1 think that brutal practice will soon
he unheard of in Georgia.”
Thought That Slaton Will Announce.
There is a growing impression Unit
Governor Slaton will In due timean
noitnce his candidacy for the United
Statics senate for the unexpired term.
Just what this impression is based
on is difficult to see, because the
governor himself -is saying absolute¬
ly nothing as to his probable course,
other than that when he is ready he
will say it and with force and direct¬
ness.
But the idea is gaining ground in
some way that he is sure to offer
the gage of battle to Felder and
Hardwick and Cooper and whoever
else may be seeking the honor. This
would mean, of course, that Senator
Hoke Smith would not be opposed,
unless it comes from some other
source not now clear, former Gov¬
ernor Brown or some one one may¬
hap not yet considered in the politi¬
cal equation.
At any rate, it seems assured that
Governor Slaton is going to maintain
his policy of keeping the other fel¬
low guessing until he considers the
lime ripe to speak. It is believed
that he will not define his position
until after the state democratic ex¬
ecutive committee meets.
A prominent gentleman here front
Columbus expressed the opinion that
G. Gunby Jordon would in all proba¬
bility be a candidate for the unex¬
pired term.
Many Auto Owners Facing Arrest.
There are some 14,000 owners of
automobiles in the state of Georgia
liable to arrest for misdemanor at
almost any moment. Approximately
this number of persons have not yet
secured state licenses for 1914 and
the longer they delay the greater
will be their danger of arrest.
March 1 was the last day under the
new law to secure licenses.. Within
the past five days some 9„000 li¬
censes have been issued, the majori¬
ty of persons waiting until the last
possible moment.
Approximately 24,000 state li¬
censes were issued last year, and it
is expected that 25,000 will be issued
this year.
Secretary of State Cook urges
those who have not secured licenses
to do so at once, not only in order to
avoid possible arrest, but to sav - his
office from the annoyance which late
arrivals always entail.
West Named Committee Head;
Senator William Stanley West of
Valdosta, has taken the oath of office
as a senator of the United States.
Whether or not he will be a candi¬
date for the full unexpired term of
Senator Bacon has not yet been dis¬
closed.
Senator West was immediately ap¬
pointed to the chairmanship of the
committee on expenditures in the
postoffice department, and will also,
in all probability, be made a member
of the committee on military affairs.

Boydton, Va.—Mrs. Fannie Boyd, of
this town, says; ”1 am sure I would

Before taking Cardui, 1 could hardly

I underwent an operation last spring
for womanly trouble, but felt no better.
After using 8 bottles of Cardui, the
woman’s tonic, my ulcers were all
gone, I can eat hearty without suffer¬

work all day, and can walk four mites
a day without feelipg tired.

to darken her gray hair
She Made Up a Mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur to Bring Back Color,
Gloss, Thickness.
Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound¬
ed, brings hack the natural color ami
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays,
by asking at any store for “Wyeth’s
Sago and Sulphur Hair Remedy,” you
will get a large bottle of this famous
old recipe for about 50 cents.
Don’t stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap¬
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy. Adv.

Athens.—Under the ’advice of the
Georgia State College of Agriculture,
a $500 Percheron stallion has been
bought by the commissioners of Lau¬
rens county to be used by the farmers
to breed better work stock. The an¬
imal is pure bred. This is an extraor¬
dinary step for the public welfare, and
one which other counties in Georgia
will probably follow.
Amerieus.—Seaboard Railway Con¬
ductor H. E. Hurley, whose home is
in Amerieus, returned here from Mont¬
gomery arid tells an interesting story
of the capture in Montgomery of the
four alleged professional yeggmen who
had previously boarded his train at
Lumpkin and Lovale, near Amerieus,
and whom he afterwards pointed out
to the Montgomery officials as suspect¬
ed crooks.
MiiledgevBIe.—One of the largest j
fires occurring in this plant in years j
destroyed the plant of the Oconee
Milling company, situated on the river j
here. The building also houses the j
hydro plant of the local electric sys- )
tem, which, however, was only an aux- I
iliary to the main electric plant. The j
milling company was one of the iarg- :
eat of its kind in the South, and the i
total loss will approximate $50,000.
Statesboro. -The first round in the ;
fight against the cow on tlie streets j
of Statesboro went to the Civic im

meeting held in the courthouse, and if j
such an expression is shown at the j
ballot box on March 18, “Sis” Cow j
wjll receive a knockout blow and put I j
off the streets of the city. Some
time ago the women of the town form- I
ed an organization and have been ■
fighting for the elimination of the cow. j
Petitions were circulated asking the
mayor and council to call an election,
and March 18 lias been set.
Dublin.—Charlie Morgan, a negro,
is alive today purely because he pos¬
sesses an unusually thick skull, and
one that will stand almost any
amount of pummeling. He and Tom
Jordon were working side by side in
the plant or the Consolidated Phos¬
phate company here when they be
< ame enraged at each other and went
to fighting. Jordan picked up a
round bar of oak about five feet in
length and hit Morgan a terrific blow
on the head just behind the left ear.
So hard was the blow that Morgan
was knocked ten feet from the spot,
4 *nd the noise of the lick was'heard
inside the plant.
Atlanta.—An order of mistrial was
entered liere in the case of J. R. Mel¬
ton, charged with the murder of
Mans, Teel in Harris county several
months ago. Both men were farm¬
ers and ,well known. A change of

here because officials stated they
feared trouble in Harris county. Af¬
ter the jury, which toms the case tin
tier consideration, hat? reported Wo '
Judge Ben Hill that an agreement j j

Bibb county. Judge H. A, Mathews

brewery company, asked by the Ma¬
con Law Enforcement league, on the
ground that the breweryis a blind ti¬
ger. In denying the application.

to ignore it. especially in view of
the fact, that the supreme court has i
never passed directly on the question j
