come to her waist, and she was proud
of It. The family tried to get iter

tefused. One night Aunt Nora's
young man, who. by the way, hap

he might be able to persuade her on
this occasion, secretly informed him
of the affair, and then when Ruth

fact that she wished her niece to have

“There’s a Reason”
No Kick in Watermelon.
Juice of the watermelon contains a
high content of sugar and table
sugar lias been made front it, but not
in a commercial way. There is one
peculiarity about the watermelon: Un¬
like nearly all other plants, fruits and
vegetables having sweet juice, good
wine has not been made front the
juice of the watermelon. Cantaloupes,
on the contrary, when their juice is
fermented, and distilled, produce a
good quality, or a bad quality, of
brandy, according to one’s point of
view or palate. But the watermelon

Tired OF Dodging Law; Man Gives Up
Atlanta.—Rather than spend sleep¬
less nights as a fugitive from justice,

authorities for violation of the mo¬
tor vehicle theft act, surrendered to
the United States district court re¬
cently. entered a plea of guilty, and
reieiveil a sentence of a year and a
day in the federal penitenrialy.

lawyer. The attorney told Judge

dodged officers of the law until lie
was a living skeleton and was finally

j Red Liquor Fails To Materialize
j Americas.—Gilbert Carter, a negro
living near Flint river, reasoned that
muscadines put into beer would make
red! liquor, so lie put some into the
mash w'hen he decided to make a run,
some time ago. Last night he was
busy stilling tliq stuff when Sheriff
Harvey walked into his cabin. Only
white liquor had been made when tha
sheriff arrived, which greatly puzzled
the negro. So deeply was he inter¬
ested in the effort to make red liquor
until he forgot the serious charge
against him, and asked the sheriff
why the muscadines made, “only
white liquor like the other niggers
make.” He was brought to Americus
and lodged in jail, where he still lan¬
guishes in default of bond.
