TWO .y^Edisqn KQCQmb for FEBRUARY On Sals January 25th SOME people could listen to Grand Opera all night, while others never tire of ragtime—and some are just comfortable, wholesome lovers of all music that’s good.

No local application reaches below the infected flesh at the spot, and for this reason can have no curative effect on a sore or ulcer; while such treatment is being used alone, the germs and impurities are constantly Increasing in the blood and the sore is bound to grow worse.

The scheme Is begun with certain mani pulations of the market In which Wall street magnates are the victims, and thin the plan Is enlarged until the whole world Is engaged in a financial warfare that soon means an actual warfare in which tho Hag of tho Uni ted States also plays its part. There Is a double love stroy involved in the Intricacies of tho plot, and the fact that the book was written by George Randolph Chester proves that it is something decidedly out of the usual and most decidedly worth while. Why Irving Bachollor Wrote "Th» Master." Irving lhichcller has made the fol lowing statement about his new book, "The Master": “In writing ‘The Master* I aimed: "1. To lead my readers with the help of cheerful company and stirring episodes Into clearer knowledge of a great evil, that of war, and to create new enthusiasm for the old truth that out of one blood God has created all people. In other words to help along a feeling of brotherhood between man ! and man the world over. "2. To suggest what can be done I with a child’s mind undur training which compels it to depend upon lat ent but neglected powers and to fee! its own way to tho truth.

Price $1.50 Loulsiuna, a land of romance among the southern states, with Its sunshine, flowers and hiHiogP 1 plantations, forms the background of the greater part of Mrs. Bushnell’s story, "John Arrowsmith, planter," a romance of the dark and gloomy days preceeding and during the great Civil war. The central figure of the plot is a nobleman both In name and In deed; and the scene Is laid at Belle-Air, a plantation not wholly Imaginary, sit uated on the Atehafalaya, the ances tral home of the Arrowsmitlis. As an accurate as well as inter esting portrayal of one of the moat stirring periods In American annals, the author has woven a romance faithful in detail and pleasing in ex ecution. Her glowing pen pictures of plantation life and her description of actual conditions between master and slave, while having but a secon dary Importance In the story, are vi vidly brought before the reader. The breaking of the war clouds, the call to arms, the heroic response, and the making of the first Confederate flag, afl contribute to the Interest. Withal this book bears the distinction of be ing purely Confederate In Its tone—• t.lie first of Its kind written sinfte Lin coln's proclamation; and the scope o the whole volume Is such that it will appeal to readers both north and i south. The Direct Effect of Miscegenation on limocenf Women—and Babies This is a subject about which people have thought it “improper” to talk, or even think. The result is shown in figures—to it is due 65 per cent, of the surgical operations on good women and one-third of all blindness in babies; it is ten times as contagious as leprosy, and causes more deaths than tuberculosis—and it thrives only because it i is tabooed in speech. Plain and public words are necessary. The story is told in Pearson’S Magazine for February. It is a revelation of the effect of the depravity of man and the thoughtlessness of youth. It will offend prudes, but right is always right. It is the most im portant story to young men and women that has been printed. Buy this magazine now. Pearson’s Magazine _for W ebruary THE LIVEST MAGAZINE THIS MONTH EMM COLLEGE BOYCOTTS BEEF : May Have Cause,' However, to Reflect on Their En thusiasm in Little While EMORY COLLEGE, Ga. —A large quota of Emory students is greatly perplexed, for they fear that their en thusiasm has carried them just a lit tb- further than they had counted on going. Some several score have sign al an agreement to ooycott the beet trust by abstaining from western meats for the next thirty days, and row the question has sprung up, “Will the boarding house that habitually use shipped meats persist in serving c,.-flies that will not be eaten and let tneir boarders who have signed the agreement go hungry, or will they trot out Oxford chicken and Newton coun ty beef?’ and feed the students like kings?” R. C. Mfzelle, a student from Rhine, G,i.. inaugurated the movement, and the long list of names signed to the agreement to taboo trust goods is headed by that of Dr. F. N. Duncan, professor of biology here. However, the question propounded above doesn't seem to be worrying Dr. Duncan, for when seen by The Herald correspond (lit this morning it developed that he is strictly a vegetarian. Following is the text of the agreement being cir culated: i “Believing that the Boycott now or ; ganizing against the beef trust Is right, and that it will bring a reduc tion in the price of beef, the under signed agree to eat no pork or beef from January 24 to February 24. This applies to western meats —those uti ; der trust control.” In addition to the many students' names signed to this a large number of prominent citizens have affixed their signatures. What will come of it is mere spec ulation. Dr. Duncan, the boarding housekeepers and the few students who have not signed the above are laughing at the “victims.” Newton county cattle raisers are saying to the beef trust: “You can’t make me mad!” Why Is Sugar Swset? If sugar did not dissolve In the moot; you could not taste the sweet.

Acute Pains “I suffered much pain in my right arm—rheumatism—took two of the Anti-Pain Pills and the pain was gone. Gave a lady friend, suffering from pleurisy, two and they relieved the pain in her breast.” I. A. GFELL, Cincinnati, Ind. Because of their sedative influence upon the nerve branches Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills relieve acute pains of any nature. They are equally effective in neural gia, rheumatism, sciatica, locomotor ataxia, or the pain due to spinal trouble. Ladies who have periods of suffering find that they not only relieve their distress but their attacks become less severe, and after a time often disappear altogether.
