SOLUTION FOR THE
FREE TRSOE
PROBLEM
■ •
IdOKIX)N The l.lheral government
has by a wide Issue begun the solu
tion of the great free trade problem
by the patents act, which came into
force last week. The beginning of
tariff reform has been enacted and
the manufacture of articles protected
by Kngliah patents must he carried on
In Great Britain. This will mean au
enormous increase of work to thou
•amts of Knglish workmen.
Mr Lloyd George, who has been
traveling In Germany, has evidently
returned with a sense that although
tariff reform as crudely propounded
by the conservatives Is a measure
which essentially would only have
benefited one class. Is still to be con
aldurud tinder modified conditions for
the benefit of all.
The result of this action Is that
some of the great German and Amer
ican firms are opening factories in
Kurland, including the Safety lluzor
company. Lever Brothers’ Aniline Dye
Works, the Sanab gen Food company
and the Patted Shoe Machinery com
pany from Bo ton.
1 know of no juster measure than
that the articles protected by Kng
liah patents should In* manufactured
by Knglish hands, hut | see a vast
difference between the principle lying
behind this act and the proposals for
taxing food canting info this country,
which would nave militated so hardly
against the working classes.
There is. however, one feature
which is singularly encouraging, and
that is the stamp of factory which is
being opened For instance, there is
a model German factor> Just finished
at Brtmstown In Middlesex where we
find a lange and airy dining hall for
the employes, where work) tg people
will either bring their own food or
be supplied front the kitchen, a gi>od
lihrar* a room set apart for men to
dry their elothcs and boots and an
equipped bicycl# shed
These things are certainly an Indi
cation of a better day that Is coming
when the Socket of th« world will
lie considered as among those to
whom the nation owes Its gratitude
And many a matt doesn't let his right

GENTRY BROTHERS
HERE THURSDAY
What patience and kindness can ac
complish with a dumb brute Is shown
by Archie, the most highly educated
monkey in the world.
This simian is one of the many at
tractions with the gentry Brothers shows
which will b€j in Augusta, Thursday,
September i’4th.
Archie boasts of being the only rt sques •
train monkey in the world and in ad
dition he goes other monkeys one better.
t He also is a somersaulting monkey.
• While riding a pony at full speed the
! monkey turns half dozen or more back
ward somersaults.
This monkey, while only one of the
j many with the Gentry Brothers shows.
| is the undisputed king of the menagerie.
He continually is Into mischief. In order
to keep him in working humor, however,
the employes of the great trained animal
shows submit Ills pranks.
The Gentry. Brothers shows this year
are larger than ever before. The shows
! are combined, and In their troupes of
j trained animals may be found a varied
J assortment, running from the barn yard
! pig and the stupid sheep to the aelastlc
j elephant.
j The Gentry shows have made a spe
cialty of catering to ladies and children.
But t lie scope of the performance is great
t&nrlv in the spring one of the stiowr
are coming into Augusta from the north.
Knrly in the spring one of the shtws
went Into the northwestern states and
another went to ih%* N« w Bn gin fid. After
a most successful season the two shows
were directed toward each other. At
Leesburg. Va.. they were consolidated.
Hence tt is the Gentry Brothers shows
i are twice as large this year than ever
before.
> The Gentry Shows have been annual
1 Jill*rs tn Augusta. Next Thursday
| morning they will come into this city |
j from Kdgefield. S. C. At ten O’clock tn
[ the morning the parade will pass through
! the principal througnfares. The parade
| this year ts a tableau illustration of fable

ed tn gayly painted chariots. The actor*
|in the chariots are aristocrats of dog
dom
It takes one hundred pontes, one hun
! deed d"gs and oouatlcsa other animats
to present ths Gentry shows this season
EDGEFIELD FARMER’S CLUB

Judging from the tone of an editorial
reference in the Kdgefield Chronicle to ;
I the recently organised farmers rhih in j
j the historic village, every other club In

DRUG INSPECTOR
BEGINS WORK SOfiN
! Dr. T. A. Cheatham of
Macon Will Fill the Po
sition.
ATLANTA, Ga.—Georgia’s new Pure
Drug Inspector will begin work for the
state on October Ist.
Commissioner of Agriculture, T. G.
Hudson stated today that he would is
sue commission to Dr. T. A. Cheatham,
of Macon, for this position on that date.
I>r. Cheatham was recommended to
the Department of Agriculture for this
work by the Georgia State Pharmaceu
tical Board. This position was recently
created by the enactment of an amend
ment to the Pure Food and Drug law.
which calls for such a state inspector.
Dr. Cheatham’s duties will be to the
drug stores what Pure Food Inspector
Methvin’s duties have been to the food
and feed stores of Georgia.
I The pharmacists of the state have re
gistered a complaint to the effect that
many druggists in Georgia are selling
inferior drugs and for the protection
of the life and health of the citizens,
such an Inspector became necessary.
The suspected drugs will # he sent to
the state chemist for analysis and ex
amination. and a similar punishment for
infractions will lx* imposed as are now
enforced under the pure food law.
Another southern product will come
under this Inspection to it betterment—
cotton seed-oil. Wendy every drug store
Itn tin 1 * state sells this product of the
cot ion seed, for It is of rare medicinal
value, and l»r. Cheatham will see to it
( that no other oil Is substituted for cot
| ton seed oil and will allow It to stand
j on its own merits.

DEATH OF HER FATHER ENDS
A YEAR’S FIGHT TO CARRY
OUT HER PLANS
APPEAL TO THE COURTS
Husband a Stable Boy who
Took Care of Horeses on
the Estate.
VIENNA —Unusually romantic was
the marriage at Budapest of Countess
Henrietta Pongracz, who has finally
succeeded in wedding her peasant
fiance, after a year's conflict with her
I aristocratic relatives. The headstrong
joting lady, who is only seventeen,
fell madly in love with Jonann On
drasik, a peasant stable lad who
worked among her father's horses.
This was a year ago. Naturally her
father. Count Eruard Pongracz. was
turious and • attempted to put his
daughter into a convent. This punish
ment she evaded, and sought refuge
with her liance at his parents' cot
tage at the gales of her father's
castle.
'i ne count then appealed to the
courts, which ordered that the girl
should be placed In a school at Bud
apest. Before this could be carried
out, the count died.
Countess Henrietta then pleaded
with her mother, who with much re
luctance, finally -consented to Ihe mar
riage.
Accordingly the couple
have Been married at a registrar's
office in Budapest.
