begl5IaClnS Against the Cigarette.
If gambling tables and intoxicants are to
be legislated against, why should not tobac-
co be! In Georgia the laws against selling
to minors intoxicating drinks or allowing
minors to engage i'll any game of chance,
are very stringent, and the Superior Court
Judges are required to give them in charge
to the grand jurors Of their different courts
at each term.
Congress will hardly enact any law of
national character on this subject, but the
evil is sufficiently serious to have caused the
introduction in the Senate OF bill prohib-
iting the selling, giving or furnishing of
cigarettes or tobacco to minors under l6
years of age in tho District of Columbia,
and few days ago Senator Chase presented
the petition of 257 physicians, 554 superin-
tendents, officers and teachers in public
schools, and eighty-six pastors of churches
in the district for the passage of the bill.
The bill is directed chiefly against the
use of cigarettes. and there appears to be
urgent need of its passage. The practice of
| smoking cigarettes is so common in Wash
| ington that it is somewhat difficult to find
boy over 10 years old who is not addicted to
| it, and there have been numerous instances
where parents had to put their boys in asy-
lums for treatment on account of the injury
done by 1t to body and mind. Senator
Stewart did not use language too strong
when he said that cigarettes were destroying
more youths than any one thing which
affects the prosperity of tho country. The
physicians who signed the petition are
among the leading ones in the District.
They have thoroughly investigated the sub
ject, and their testimony must carry great
weight. No doubt eminent physicians all
over the country would agree with them.
The matter is not a trivial one, and should
not be treated lightly. The practice is
becoming more general every year. Isn't
it about time steps were being taken to
check it,

The Good Work in Georgia

veto bad and unnecessary legislation, and
Congress really seems very careless in the

Widely Separated.

1t is expected that tie judiciary COM
mittee of the Senate will act upon the
nomination of Mr.. Fuller for Chief Justice
tomorrow. There is every reason to think
that its action will be favorable. Nothing
has appeared in the newspapers to Justify
a suspicion that he is not an honest and an
able lawyer, and a cultivated and con-
scientious gentleman. The testimony is
that he is clean hearted and clean handed.
He has not been politician nor has he
persistently sought office. The President
made five unsuccessful attempts to get him
to accept position in the government be-
fore he offered him the chief iusticeship.
He is one of the kind of men the people
want in the public service because they
elevate it.
Mr.. Fuller is not popular with the ward
politicians of Chicago, and the reason is
readily understood. Men who lead correct
lives, seek to make the age in which thew
live better and work to build up their re-
spective communities, are frequently
the objects of the hatred of those who are
less successful, and who are not nice about
the methods they employ to accomplish
their purposes.
Mr.. Fuller wanted to be a delegate to
the convention which nominated Mr..
Cleveland. Those who control ward poll
tics in Chicago don't like him aud men
of his kind and they determined to de-
feat him. They did SO, and selected man
named Mackin. Mackin is now in the
pententiary and Mr.. Fuller will soon be the
occupant Of the most honorable position in
the country except that of President As

most people what they deserve.

on systematically for ten years, and the

SO, 500 year, lived in $4,000 style, though
he had no apparent resource except his
salary; and yet the officers of the bank did
not suspect that anything was wrong. The
bank, however, is as able as any other to
stand the loss.

Women Delegates.

The Methodists are having quite lively
discussion in their General Conference in
New York on the question of admitting
women as delegates 1t has been going on
for several days, with the chances in favor
! of the women. At one time yesterday it
was thought that a settlement had been
reached, but to the disappointment of many
1t was found, when vote had been taken
on proposition to submit the mat
ter to the members Of the different
churches, that this was a mistake.
The proposition appears to DO fair one
1t would put off the decision of the question
for four years, but that is a comparatively
short time in which to finally dispose of SO
grave an issue. If it is decided by this con-
ference there will not, in all probability, be
entire acquiescence in the decision.
The committee on credentials reported
against admitting the women delegates, but
their champions are making a vigorous
fight for them. There are certainly strong
reasons for admitting them. More than
two-thirds OF the members of the church
are women, aud they are its most earnest
and effective workers. Women voted
on the principle Of lay delega-
ton and they now vote at elections for
stewards and trustees, and in electoral
and quarterly conferences This conference
has the power to so change the constitution
of the church as to admit women delegates.
Everything seems to be in favor of the
women, but some of the ministers don't want
to give them so many privileges. Probably
they are afraid that they will next demand
to be admitted to pulpits. As two-thirds
of the members of the church are wo men,
the chances are that if the question is sub
United to the different congregations, the
women will be victorious 1t seems, then,
that the real question is, Shall women dele
gates be admitted now, or four years
hence!

The PeOule Of Eouru anita,

The Roumanians or Wallachians are q
people of entirely different type from the
Saxons. A conquered race, though they
claim descent from the ancient Romans,
they are nevertheless regarded with con-
tempt by all their neighbors, and have
become habituated by centuries of op-
preston and abuse to habits of cowardice.
subserviency and deceit Yet they are
a race of singular vigor and fertility,
noted for their longevity and personal
beauty. Whereas the Saxon counter
ances look as if rudely carved from wood,

The forms assumed By their supersti-
tons show that they are an. imaginative
and poetical people. They have cordial
and gracious manners, and their family
feelings are so warm that each miserable
Roumanian hut, ovcrflowing with chill
dren, is the home Of kindness and affec-
tion Each child is regarded as a new
blessing from the Almighty, and to be
childless as the greatest Of Affections.
Their Saxon neishbors speak Of them
with contempt as immoral, and there is
undoubtedly ground for the reproach,
but it should be remembered that the
Saxon maintains his superior morality At
the cost Of frequent divorces and amid do
nestle discussions, while the Roumanan,
to whom an early marriage is forbidden
by military regulations, seldom breaks
the informal nnioa contracted in his
youth, and preserves always spirit Of
kindness in his domestic relations

Alieghanians; it may be the careless
hours OF childhood were spent in V,r.

Cheap Grades Of Candy.

Our business is injured to great de-
gree by the plan adopted some time ago
by retail grocers in giving away candy
to children who come to their stores for
small articles needed in the household.
The most of these grocers buy q very
cheap grade of candy, painted up with
poisonous coloring. These arc dealt out
to children whenever an article is pur-
chased, no matter how much or how lit
tie the purchase may be. 1t frequently
happens that child, who has become
smart, will make two or three trips to
the store when the errand could have
been performed at one time. This is done
to get double dose of the poison. Or
the child will leave home with instruc-
tons to purchase two or three articles,
End visit as many different stores, get
ting ''taffy on stick' Or some other
such stuff at each one Of them. Pure
and healthy candy cannot be made and
sold for this purpose at 10 and Is cents a
pound, and this is what most of this stuff
costs.-Candy Merchant in Globe-Demo-

Boston Library's Literary CuriositieA
Under the glass showcases OF the Bos-
ton public ibrary-supposed to be the
most complete collection Of books in this
country-are exposed to view many lit
erary curiosities Of a most interesting
description. For instance, there is copy
Of The Nuremberg Chronicle. published
fifty years after the invention of print
ing. with wood cuts. and dated 1903.
Near by is the epistle of st. Jerome in
black letter, dated 1918. with Martin
Luther's autograph on the fly leaf. The
title page of little volume in the hand
writing of David Garrick has this in
scription: "A Dialogue Between an Actor
and Critic. by way Of Prologue to the
English Opera Called Tempest. An odd
shaped book is the Indian Primer, or
the First Book by which Children may
Know Truly to Read the Indian Ian
guage, and Milk for Babes" One B.
Green, of Boston, printed this In 1920.
Here is also the first ballot cast in South
Carolina by colored man 1t originally
belonged to William Lloyd Garrison.
Likewise on exhibition is the smallest
complete book ever printed. 1t is a copy
of Dante's ''Divina Commedia, struck
off from the smallest type ever cast.
Two sheets of paper, cut into sixteen
parts. were enough to contain the whole
IA, 223 verses. The leaves measure two
inches in length by one and half in
width. The type was cast in 1850, but
the compositors and proofreaders en-
ployed on the work repeatedly abandoned
it, ON account of the eye strain, and it
was not completed until 1878. The type
was too small to distribute" and so,
after using, it was melted and cast over
again. Another interesting volume is

Apostle John Eliot 1t was printed in
