Bulging Vaults of State Banks
Show Prosperity. .

$100,000,000 ON DEPOSIT
Bank Statements Show a Gain of ‘O‘no
Hundred Per Cent in Cash Wealth.
Result of 15 Cent Cotton.
Atlanta, Ga.~—ln approximately 500
state banks doing business in Geor
gla today, there is deposited Lo the
credit of Georgians nearly SIOO,OOO,
000, an increase in deposit accounts
of more than 100 per cent in twelve
months.
A splendid illustration of the dif
ference between 9 and 15-cent cot
ton! :
This marvelous increase in actual
cash wealth in the state is indicated
in the official bank; statements show
ing the condition of the Georgia banks
at the close of business on November
16, the majority of ‘which have been
received in the offige of State Treas
urer and State Bank Examiner J.
Pope Brown. .
The last official statement of 1908
bore the date of November 27 some
ten days later than that of the state.
ment called for this year, but tne
dates are close enough to admit of
interesting comparison,
The total deposits in state banks
November 27, 1908, were $46,970,
509.68. Tine accurate figures for 1909
wil not be available for several weeks
yet, as all of the statements have not
yet been received, and the compila
tion of them is a tremendous work
after they are all in hand.
But from the figures rurnished the
bank examiner it has been found thai
the total deposits subject to check in
128 state banks, about one-fourth of
the entire number, aggregate $25,717;
053. These 128 banks were. selected
at random, and each of them.is in a
different Georgia county; so™it will
be seen that the state's prosperity is
widespread 'and general - ;
Upon the basis of these figures,
which do tot include deposits in the
shape of time certificates, amounting
to a considerable sum, it is apparent
that the total deposits in Georgia's
state banks will reach the figure stat
ed—nearly $100,000,000.
In adidtion to the foregoing Geor
gia has about 110 national banks. In
1908, November 27, the total deposits
in these national banks approximated
S3O 000,000. There is every indication
that their deposits have increased in
like proportion, and that the total
cash deposits in Georgia today, or
upon November 16, to be more accu
rate, aggregated the magnificent sum
of $160,000,000.
In other words, Georgians have just
about twice as much available cash
today as they had twelve months ago,
all of which is a remarkable tribute
to the agricultural productivity of the
state.
This growth is not confined to any
one section. The bank whose depos
its do not show a heatlhy increase
take it wherever you will in the
state, is a rarity. Naturally, however,
the greatest percentage of increase
is found in some sections of South
Georgia, where crops met with no un
favorable conditions, and there was a
full yield of cotton ready for the mar;
ket at highest cash price.
GEORGIA LEADS.
This State Holds the Palm for lllicit
Distilling. _
Washington, D. C.—l'he annual re
port of the commissioner of internal
revenue discloses almost startling
facts bearing on the prohibition law,
which is' supposed to be in eifect in
Georgia. This report furnishzs the
very interesting information that the
federal government ttiougn the bu
reau of internal revenue, igsucd re
tail liquor license for the fiscal year
ending June 30 of the present year
to 1,091 dealers. But this is not all
Ia prokibition Georgia the report dis
closes the fact that 18 wholesale li
quor dealers’ licenses w2re issued dur
ing the past year.
A resort to the records of the com
missioner of internal revenue shows
that there has been comparatively lit
tle diminution in the issuance of fed
eral license for the dispensation of
booze since the operation of state
wide prohibition. In 1907, which was
prior to the enactment of the state
prohibition law, the number of retail
liquor dealers licensed by the federal
government numbered 1,427, and the
wholesalers were 105. In that year
the retailers of malt liquof author
ized to do business in the state were
only 207. Prohibition laws seem to
make this class of wet goods dispeun
sers thrive. Last year the retail malt
liguor ‘dealers authorized to do ‘busi
ness in the state had reached the
grand total of 1,521. From a group
of 207 to more than 1,500 within a
period of two years is surely going
some.
But the 18 wholesale liquor dealers
and the 1,091 retailers, who made a
mockery of prohibition in Georgia last
year, do not tell the whole story. Thne
report of the commissioner of inler
nal revenue discloses the fact that
two grain distilleries were registered
in the state last 'year, and, in addi
tion, one more was operated.
Georgia holds the palm for illicit
distilling, while:. North Carolina runs
a close second. In Georgia last year
394 .illicit distilleries were seized and
623 destroyed. In North Carolina zl%
were seized and 374 destroyed. Ala
bama is third in the race, with 173
‘geized and 231 destroyed. There were
24 registered distilleries reported for

DIFFICULTIES OF JAPANESE.
The Spoken and Written Language——
Essential Parts of the Alphabet,
Army oficers who are thinking of
taking up the study of Japanese
should pause‘before they attempt the
task ‘and ask themselves whether
they have a pecullar strong linguls
tfe aptitude. Even the Japanese find
the language very difficult. Angio-
Saxons who growl about the difficul
ties of our' spelling and favor the
simplified system would never live it
they had to undergo what the sub
ject' of the Mikado suffers in the mat
ter of language.
It takes a Japanese child seven
years to learn the essential parts of
the alphabet. There are 214 signs,
which serve the same purpose as in
{tial letters in English dietionaries.
Then after you have tracked down in
one of these 214 signs some part of
the character for which wyou are
about to make a search you still
have a veritable Darkest Africa
ahead of you. The pompous first
personal pronoun is avoided when
ever it is ppossible In speaking Japa
nese. If: it ‘must be used it is intro
duced casually, but generally the ab
stract noun “selfishness” serves in
its stead.
For example, a Japanese would not
say, “I don't drink wine,” but “Wine
don't drink;” or, if this is not clear
enough, “Selfishness wine don't
drink.” Reference to your posses
slons must be deprecztory. Thus, if
a man wishes to point -out his own
residence he says, “That miserable
house,” which, of course, could re
fer to no other than his own.
On the other hand, “That beautiful
house” would easily identify the
house as belonging to some one else.
Mereover, any one who wishez to
learn Japanese must be prepared to
learn two languages—the written and
the spoken. The one differs so mate
rially from the other that if a Japa
nese i 3 reading a book or newspa
per and wishes to do so aloud it
becomes necessary for him to trans
late the written words into the col
loquial. To be able to read any of
the higher class Japanese newspa
pers it is mnecessary to master at
least from 2,500 to 3,000 ideographs.

Blg Waste of Gas.
The people of the United States
waste in the course of a year $33,
000,000 worth of gas. This statement
{s made by the president of the Na
tional Commercial Gas Association,
William J. Clark. One of the ways
in which gas is wasted is by having
wall coverings that absorb light.
Colors differ immensely in their
power of reflection. The reflective
power of yellow wall paper, for in
stance, is 40 per cent.,, while that of
emerald green is only 18 per cent.
Dark brown paper reflects 13 per
cent. and orange as much as 50 per
cent. It pays ty be elean, for o
vellow painted wall that is soiled has
only half the reflecting power of a
clean yellow painted wall.
Wrong types of burners are an
other source of waste, and so are
burners that are out of opder. Hav
ing the chandelier too high throws
the gas where it isn’t needed, and
so wastes it. Some people try to se
cure what they call a cheerful effect
by havimg bright spots of gilding,
polished bric-a-brac and inconsequent
niirrors to catch ‘the light. This is a
" mistake: it ‘simply wearies the eyes.
, Light should be thrown where it is
needed, and reflected from broad sur
faces.—New York Tribune.

RESULTS OF FOOD

Man, physically, should be like a

undue friction and wear, and fre
quently ruins the entire system.
A well known educator of Boston
found a way to keep the brain and
the body in that harmonious co-oper=-
ation which makes a joy of living.
“Two years ago,” she writes, ‘“‘be«
ing in a condition of nervous exhaus
tion, I resigned my position as teach
er, which I had held for over forty
years. Since then the entire rest has,
of course, been a benefit, but the use
of Grape-Nuts has removed one great
cause of illness in the past, namely,
constipation, and its attendant evils.
“I generally make my entire break-~
fast on a raw egg beaten into four
spoonfuls of Grape-Nuts, with a little
hot milk or hot water added. I like
it extremely, my food assimilates, and
my bowels take care of themselves.
I find my brain power and physical
endurance much greater and I know
that the use of the Grape-Nuts has
contributed largely to this result.
“It 18 with feelings of gratitude
that I write this testimonial,and trust
it may be the means of aiding others
in their search for health.”
