THE LONG TOP COAT. If a woman must wear old-fashioned frocks she can invest her money in a long top coat which, like charity, hides a multitudes of sins. These coats are the feature of the day. l ney are worn over blouse cos tumes of another color even more of ten than over skirts of their own ma terial. Tney are graceful garments and give distinction to any costume. Unlike most coats they can be made at home w.th a reasonably good result. They do not fit the figure, but sug gest a, figure beneath. They are made of all kinds of materials. Many are high-waisted. not because of a belt, but because capo sleeves, bretelles ot some other form of drapers begin at a point above the waist lino. Those that have the cape sleeves are very effective, says Public Ledger. These capes are cut circular, are quite scanty and cover the top of the arm, running to points at a high waist line back and front. At the edges is soutache braid or a binding of ribbon velvet. Fancy but tonholes are put on of braid or satin, and this method iB carried out down the fronts. Others do hav e patent leather belts running through slides around the figure under the arms, with a large leather buckle in front. All of these coats are long, coming below the knees and always a little aimrter in front than back. - —Mr. and Mrs. Charles Meyer of Millett, S.

Health should be more seriously considered and safeguarded. The United States government have parial ly awakened to the fact and now com pel the publication of certain ingre dients on the packages of medicines that, contain them. That was a step in the right direction, but it did not reach far enough. The public should know and be told about every Ingredient of every medi cine they take. In our business of selling drugs' and medicines, we are compelled, to sell what the public de mands, even though some medicines we sell contain drugs injurious to the good health of the person using them. We have often attempted to over come this evil, but we were airy* powerless until we became affiliated with about two thousand other lead ing druggists in a co-operative en terprise, known as the United Drug Company. Through this large co operation of druggists, it was possi ble for experts to travel all over kh< country for more than two years in search of extraordinary remedies. When they found a remedy that was perfect they purchased its prescrip tion. The druggists themselves also contributed prescriptions that they knew to be good through their hav ing been continually prescribed and successfully used by eminent physi cians. In this way about two thousand dif ferent prescriptions were collected. These were then carefully classified; remedies compounded from them and thoroughly tested by actual use for i long period under the supervision of a committee of expert chemists and i physicians, until about three hundred j different remedies were selected as - Ixing the best for the treatment of certain ailments or diseases. We are now able to offer these remedies of known and proved cura tive value to the people of Augusta.

COMPANY Phone 183 NEGRO OPERATES BUGGY BLIND TIGER AT CHURCH John Kelly, colored, operated a blind tiger on a land office scale in the rear of a negro church during re vival services, and he was caught in the act by a member of the county constabulary—but U. S. Commission er W. H. Goodwin was obliged, under a technicality of the federal law on that point, to release him after a preliminary hearing held Monday night. Testimony In the case brought to light a series of unusual incidents, and left no doubt in the mind of the court as to Kelly’s guilt, but because the constable who "worked up” the case against him faile to establish Hie fact of more than one illegal sale, he was dismissed. Unlike the Geor gia prohibition law, Uncle Sam's regu lation in regard to the sale of whis key without an internal revenue li cense provides that the defendant may he bound over only when it is conclusively proven that he sold whiskey to more than one person, or to the same person on different oc casions. Last Sunday the mayor of Keys ville, a small town on the Augusta Southern railroad, was informed that John Kelly, a negro well-known in the community, had opened and was operating in full blast a blind tiger on the hitching ground ofa negro church just on the outskirts of town. He communicated with T. B. Skin ner, a constable, who proceeded to the scene at once. Finding a small negro boy to his liking. Skinner gave him the price of a pint, and in struc'ted him to return with il as early as possible. The pickaninny, ignorant of the officer's identity, and anxious to pick up a tip, hurried away and was presently back with the “Whoopty." Whereupon Skinner demanded that, he tell who sold it. But to his sur prise the shaver refused, and it was GATHOLICS FIND PEACE 111 MOBILE Archbishop Glennon, Be fore Knights of Columbus Convention, Praises Mo bile’s Hospitality. MOBILE, Ala.—Archbishop Glen non in his sermon delivered at flte Pontifical High mass preceding Ihe opening of the national convention of Knights of Columbus, declared that all that is noble in southern aspira tions finds In this ancient city its smybol and its habitation. Morn than two hundred years ago he declared, Catholic Indians sought shelter beneath the armed 1 fortress of Mobile, from the tyrant governors of the Carolines, who with the spirit they brought fforri England | followed the Catholic Indians here | with the same vindictive hatred they | showed to the liish Catholics at home. The first parish canonically i established in Mobile was in 1703, Ihe said, and from that day onward i there was ever here to be found a I shrine wherein the Savior was wor j shipped and where priests served as his inlnisters. The Constitution of 'the United States, he said, is a guarantee of religious liberty and the time has come when no set, of men can array themselves against the religion of their fellow c.Mzens. The loyal Am merican Catholic nrts above his country’s standard arid his heart de vo’tion no symbol no higher save that, alone that has gtoen to America Its Constitution and to the world Its ci vilization—the symbol of divinity. He urged the Knights to sustain every cause that Is noble, placing ci tizenship above 'the party, TORPEDO NOT SUNK, BOSTON - The report current Mon day night to the effect that a torpedo boat had been sunk was bellev jii Tuesday to be due either to a prank lot some amateur wireless experimen ter or to an exaggeration of the Provlncetown naval war maneuver ■ story In which the ships are "Theor etically" sunk.
