(To The Herald: I wish to speak a word through your i Public Mind Column about the con tnrvcrsy l>otween the police depart ment and Recorder Will D. Irvin. { While Iho real contendon* pro and con, have, not come out .aa yet, still I i believe it Is pretty generally under ■ stood that It Is caused (by the police t I department not being satisfied with ! I the disposition the recorder makes of i 1 certain earn brought before him. The writer happens to hawe observed a great deal about the manner In which Mr. Irvin conducts his court and, unquestionably he Is one of the fairest, squnrest Judicial officers I have ever seen In courts ofielther high or low degree. Mr. Irvin doesn’t de cide that a man should he want to Jail for 90 days simply because the ar resting pllcemnn thinks he ought to he sent up. The police offloers, deal ing with lawbreakers so much, are prone to show their animus In some cases against the poor unfortunates that they arrest and unless the re corder subscribes to their views they .f ire very much offended. There are a great rnnny splendid officers on the Augusts police department and there are some members of It who are not so splendid. Some policemen, no doubt, get their prejudices aroused acalnst alleged offenders and show : lalnly tlielr feelings against the de feiplants when they are on trial Judge Irvin as the arbiter In the case, list ens Just as patiently to the shivering devil who has Just spent a night of misery in the barracks cells, as he does to the bluecoat who acts as prosecuting attorney, etc. I do not charge that the police de partment of Augusta, as a department, trles to oppress people, but I do say there are Individuals in that depart ment who seem to bring the same peo ple up before the recorder with con sistent regularity and who seem terri bly hurt when Judge Irvin refuses to Inflict punishment in the manner In which they desire. Recorder Irvin stands between the lowly negro and poor white man charged with violating city offenses and the police department. He Is conscientious throughout. He would wilfully do no man, no matter how humble, an Injustice. If It Is true that he Inclines to the side of meTcy al ways, that Is so much more to his credit. He Is a real recorder, fear less Impartial and an official of whose record In office Augustans should ho proud This Is from one who knows something about the way things are run at recorder's^court^ Should a Wife Shine Her Husbands Shoes? To The Herald: I am an unmarried man and can therefore have a chance at speakln ’ mv mind—-If you will kindly allow m ■ a little space to do so In. What I have to say Is this. Th" women of today wonder why nobody asks them to marry them, and I will tell them why. They have got too many new-fashioned and high-flying notions, that's why. The wife of yesterday was willing when she got married to give up all thin Ice-cream-soda and moving pic ture stufr and to settle down to tho real business of life. She eat at home all day making pie and sewing on but tons and darning socks. The wife of today only comes home every now and then, long enough to change her hat and discharge the servant Conse ipicntlv when you come from your work a I night tired and sore, you have no little partner to meet you at the door and feteh your slippers where -he hns had them warming at the fire. Instead you let yourself Into a cold and pitch block house, where there’s nobody home hut the eat. You pot yourself at ease, light the fire in the kitchen stove, and sit down to wait. After a while, maybe, the front door opens, and a dressed up young woman whirls In like a cyclone, tak ing off her hnt and out of breath. W hen you meet her with a cold and unfriendly eye, she says: "Hello, Ohol |\ old Mutt! What you got for sup- Then she powders her nose. Now, the wife 1 want, and 1 won’t marry until I find her, nor will many other young fellows situated like 1 am. Is the kind that gets up early In the morning to shine your shoos. That Is the only kind of a wife that ,-nn be called a wife The other Is lust a guest In the house. BACHELOR. A "Sana Chrlstma*." To The Herald: lie time In now ripe t- start a move -1.. which 1 have lon* had In mind, 1. . v, a popular uprising with the ob -1.. i of eliminating firework* at Chrlat ' l ’think that 1 ehall only have to throw out the suggestion, etart the ball roll |l K - „* It were, and that popular opinion wlli Immediately spring to my aupporl. Some weeks ago there appeared tn the snilngileld Republican, which la aa everybody know* one of the two or three moat prominent, dignified and In fluential newspaper* In America, an arti cle on "Sane Chrlatmaa,' " which 1 clip ped out nt the time, but have unfor tunately lost. In It the writer spoke of ••following the lead of Augusta. 0a.." In eetnhllahlng a sane Chrlatmaa through out the country. Evidently the writer w o* under the Impreaaion that Augusta bad already adopted this moat lntolll- Kent and clvlUaed measure. l.et oa make tide word good and give them Indeed the lead which they may follow.

Correct them and the periodic attacks of etck headache will disappear Mrs John Bishop of Roseville, Ohio, writes: “About a year ago 1 was troubled with Indlgeatlon and had sick headache that lasted for two or three dnya at a time. I doctored and tried a number of remedies but nothing helped me until during one of thoae sick spells a friend advised me to tske Chamberlain'* Tab let*. This medicine relieved me In a short time."
