Rural Hygiene.


1t is we'll TO remember that going into
the country is not to be looked upon as an
excuse for all sorts of violations OF the
rules of hygienic living. Mothers are quite
apt TO think that out-of-town air possesses
some peculiar virtue which permits any
sort of indiscretion in the way of eating
and exposure to the weather. Even If some
restriction is practieed in these directions.
the children are allowed to run and play all
day. often beyond their endurance. 1t is
the wise mother who will have a reading
or sleeping hour for her family every after
noon, not forcing them into the small close
rooms OF the summer boarding house, but
coaxtng them to some grassy and shaded
spot where they can be stretched on the
ground and rest completely while listening

PERRY MAS HANGED.
The Principal In a Sensational Murder
Last Spring.

Atlanta, Ga, September S.-Perry was
hanged for the murder of Belly Lancer at
Decateur today. The execution took place
on gallows in the yard of the DeKalb
county jail The doomed man was pale,
but cool and collected to the last. On the
scaffold he declared his innocence of the
crime of murder and reiterated his state
ments that he killed Lancer to protect the
sanctity of his home. The rope fell at
1143.
Horace Steven Perry was conducting a
small grocery business in Atlanta when
he committed the crime for which he
paid the penalty on the gallows. To sup
plenent thr family's income, Mrs. Perry
took boarders at their home on Fremont
avenue, and among these was Belly Ian
GER, young theological student. The do
mestic relations OF the Perrys were not
happy. Perry had become infatuated with
q woman of questionable character.
In the troubles that arose from this.
Lancer became involved and as result
Perry shot ard mortaily wounded him,
in the court house at Decateur on Mon
day, March s. After lingering for few
days, Lancer died. Both men were un
der arrest when the shooting occurred,
having been, taken into custody at lngle-
side, to which place Perry followed Ian
GER for the avowed purpose of avenging
an insult to'his wife. Perry declared
that Lancer had outraged Mrs. Perry.
Lancer stTentously denied that he had
committed the assault and before his
death made a statement in which he said
Perry was angry because he CLancer) had
told Mrs. Perry of PerFy's alleged rela-
tions with other women. Perry was
tried at q special term of the DeKalb sn.

new trial.
Strong pressure was then brought to
bear upon Gov. Atkinson to save the con-
demned man, but after granting respite
to allow himself time to investigate the
case, the governor refused to interfere.

CHURCH WANTS TO SELL.
Old Orchard Methodists Want to Dispose
of Interest In Tabernacle.

Old Orchard, September s.-The annu.
al meeting of the Old Orchard Camp
meeting asso citation, was held today.
There was quite a full attendance of

will vote to buy the interest OF the M. E..
church at Old Orchard in the Tabernacle
and provide for the payment of the same

OF otherwise. The church trustees had
previously made a proposition to the Off
GERS of the association to separate, either
by selling the church s one-half interest
in the Tabernacle property, or by some
other method. nhe trustees of the church
represented that a separation was desired
mainly for two reasons, first, their in
ability financially to longer maintain O
large church estal uisihment like the Tab
ernacle, without incurring debt; and
second, that by the germs OF their present
agreement the church is literally out of
doors during the entire campmeeting
season, having no plane of meeting, there
