Fighting the Plague.
In street cars and elevated trains of New York City this alien has been
•lsplayed:
If You Have Consumption
Do not give It to others by spitting in g e car. If you do
not have it, don t let others give it to you by spitting.
Consumption is caught mainly through dry sputum If you
must spit, use your handkerchief.
Committee on the Prevention of Tuberculosis*
€9 Schermerhom Bt.
This I* one of the weapons employed in the fight to prevent the spread of
tne great white plague. Th<' deadly germs of tuberculo.-l . lurking In the
mucus discharged from consumptive lungs, get into the air and are breathed
into the lungs of healthy people, wher®, if there Is any sore spot, or weak
ness left by a cold or other irritating disturbance, they fasten and claim an
other victim.
Don t neglect * cough or cold. To break up a cold quickly there is noth
ing so effective as the mixture of two ounces of Glycerine, a half-ounce of Vir
gin Oil of Pine compound pure and eight ounce of pure Whisky. Hhake well
and take a teaspoonful every four hours. Jt clears the throat and bronchial
organs, relieves hoarseness and heals Irritations of the mucous surface quickly,
and because of its purity, is far preferable to the ordinary rough mixture,
of which contain chloroform or other drug It ]s> claimed by the Leach
Chemical Co., of Cincinnati, who prepare the genuine Virgin Oil of pine com
pound pure, that this mixture will break a cold in twenty-four hotrs and cun*
any cough that is curable.
Twenty-Seven Emanuel Gamblers
Corralled In Sylvan Monle Carlo
Special to The Herald.
BWAINSHORO, Ga- -Of the twenty
seven gamblers corralled by HherlfY
Fields and his deputies on the banks
of the Ohoopf*e last week, sev<n have
pleaded guilty, paid their fines and
have gone free^
The way M m Fields bagged bis
game was rathlr ingenious. He had
an inkling that somewhere within
the borders of Emanuel county there
existed in miniature a spot resemb
ling Monaco s noted resort for lovers of
gsmes of chance, Monte Carlo, and
he determined to bring it to light.
Hearing of a negro barbecue and
frolic in tho vicinity of the spot
where his game was bagged, he
thought this a good time to locate
the meeting place. Armed with the
usual paraphernalia of arresting of
ficers he with a considerable number
of deputies proceeded to the pi ape of
revelling, little thinking he would so

REAL MERIT
PATRICIAN Shoes for women have far more
to commend them than the overworked ‘‘Com
fortable Fitting” pet theme of some make re of
women’s footwear.
To put forth a boast unsupported by other
merits would certainly reflect upon the consist
ency of PATRICIAN Excellence.
There are certain well-defined features that con
stitute distinction between PATRICIAN Foot
wear and “Something to Wear.”
PATRICIAN Styles are created bv our own de
signers, marked by originality and cleverness, and
finished with that extreme care for little details
which our workmen invariably exercise.
The modest price sustained by true worth will
warrant your future purchases being Patrician.

(Herald Bureau, Candler Building.)
ATLANTA, Ga—Charitable institu
tions have received liberal donations
as a result of! the funds arising from
the recent work day. Rev. H. L.
Crumley, agent of the Decatur Or
phan’s Home, has compiled the fig
ures whlcn make a most creditable
showing. Total amount received from
Work Day was $50,000. Ten years
jago, when the Decatur Orphans’ Home
1 started ithe “work day’’ movement,
the amount realized was only SIOO.
Tho following homes have received
the amount opposite their names.
Decatur Orphans’ Home, Decatur,
Ga., $14,250; Epworth Orphanage, Co
lumbia, S. C., $4,000; Baptist Orphans
Home, Hapevllle, Ga.,-no separate ac
I counts were kept of work day gifts,
i probably $7,000; South Georgia con-
I ference, Macon Orphan Home, Ma

I Simon’s Island, SIOO.
No returns have been received from
Baptist or Methodist orphanages in
Florida, th 6 Georgia Industrial home
and several others.
Tlie Buckner home in Texas, Palm
er in Mississippi, Baptist in Missis
sippi, Children's Home in North Car
olna, say they expect to use work
day next year as a means of raising
money. The idea of work day orig
tnated with Mr. W. F. Crusselle of
Atlanta. Meeting Mr. Crumley on the
street Mr. Crusselle asked him this
question; "Why don't you ask of ev
ery one, rich and poor, young and
old, one day’s work in the year for
the orphans?" This remark brought
about what is known as "Work Day”
| among the orphans and which is c
great money raiser.
HABIT'S CHAIN.
Certain Habits Unconsciously Formed
and Hard to Break.
An ingenious philosopher estimates
that the amount ot will power neces
sary to break a life-long habit would,
if it could be transformed, lift a
weight of many tons.
It somestimes requires a higher de
gree of heroism to break the chains
of a pernicious habit than to lead a
forlorn hope in a bloody battle. A
lady writes from an Indiana town:
"FYom my earliest childhood i was
a lover of coffee. Before 1 was out of
my teens I was a miserable dyspeptic,
suffering terribly at times with my
stomach.
"I was convinced that it was coffee
that was causing the trouble and yet I
could not deny myself a cup for
breakfast. At the age of 36 I was
in very poor health, indeed. My sis
ter told me 1 was in dauger of be
coming a cofTee drunkard.
But I never could give up drinking
coffee for breakfast although it kept
me constantly ill, until 1 tried pos
tum. l learned to make it properly
according to directions, and now we
can hardly do without Postum for
breakfast, and care nothing at all for
coffee.
"1 am no longer troubled with dys
pepsia. do not have spells of suffer
lug with my stomach that used to
trouble me so when 1 drank coffee.”
