FAILURE IN MACON
INVOLVED IN SCANDAL
SENSATIONAL LEGAL PROCEED
INos GROW OUT OF FINANCIAL
TROUBLES OF ROGERS G.
JOINER COMMISSION co.

MACON, April 1S.-A case equally as
sensational as the old Progress Loan and
Improvement company scandals is about
TO develop out of the recent failure of
the Rogers & Joiner Commission COM
pany.
The trustees of that company filed a bill
yesterday afternoon ipfthe United States
court asking for a receiver for the Rico
Mining company, which mines kaolin at
Reds station, near Macon; and on the
petition the court ordered the books OF
the mining company brought into court
at once and held subject to examination
by lawyers.
1t is charged that the wreckage of the
Rogers & Joiner Commission company has
been the means Of building up the Rico
Mining company, of which Mr.. r, M.
Rogers, ST., was president, and r. NJ. Rog-
ers Jr., vice president.
1t charges that the trustees of the
Rogers x Joiner assets have found where
at least itty-hve thousand dollars worth
of Rogers & Joiner's property has gone
into the mining business without the
knowledge or consent of Mr.. d. G. Joiner,
who was one of the partners of the COM
mission company business, and specific
charges are made against Mr.. r. M. ltog-
ers, Jr., who is alleged to have issued
checks over Rogers q Joiner's signature
10 pay employees of the kaoin mine and
to have issued and o. KID. his own orders
for goods TO De shipped from the Rogers
& Joiner Commission company without
the knowledge or consent Of the partners
in the commission business, and that no
record is made on the books to show that
any such transactions ever took place.
The Rogers family is one of the most
prominent in this section. and the gentle
men who are thus arraigned have stood
high in the community, and those who
know them will wait to hear their side
OF it, before passing Judgment. The mat
ter wiH be heard on April 23d. when Judge
Speer is TO decide whether or not a re-
ceiver should be appointed.

Things You Should Know.

When steam or water has turned
the varnish OF any piece of furniture
white, rub the spots with spirits OF
camphor. To clean varnish cold tea
is very good. Vanished paint may
be successfully washed with the tea
slightly warm. In washing painted
woodwork do not use much soap. Use
warm water and a flannel cloth and
just as little soap as will remove the
specks and dust; more is likely to
streak or remove the paint. Olive oil
applied with flannel cloth is a sure
and safe remady for finger marks on
polished furniture.
Recently very economical and at.
tractive custom is being revived among
the dainty housewives in the use of the
breadboard on the table. These boards
are made attractive by the ladies with
poker decorations OF wheat heads, oat
sprays and rye tops. These decora.
tions are only put upon the beveled
edge, the top being left clear and
white for use. 1t requires some prac-
tice to cut the bread neatly, thus Of.
fering new accomplishment to the
lady presiding at the table.

Table Linen.

1t is almost as essential that table
and bed linen shall be properly hung
out as that they shall be well washed.
If they are allowed to dry out Of shape
stretching and pulling them straight
wears them much more than use.
Hang tablecloths and sheets evenly
across the line, ends down. The warp
threads are much stronger than the
wool. If stretched habitually length
wise, the things will split along the
fold. 1t is the same with towels and
napkins. Indeed, everything wash
able last longer if hung to dry so that
the weight while wet comes mainly
upon the long way threads.

he will 60 to the Pacific Coast. 1t is
not expected the chairman of the

It was stated at Democratic head
quarters in Washington that Mr..

VAST IMPORTANCE OF SLEEP.
One May Live Longer Without Food Than
Without Sleep.

One May Live Longer Without Food Than
Without Sleep.
Miscellaneous are those stories told
about the ability of great men to do
without sleep.
The foolish young man reads that
Napoleon slept only three or four
hours at highland he cuts down his
hours Of sleep. He might better open
. vein and lose quart of blood than
lose the sleep which is life itself.
Most of the stories told about great
men doing without sleep are mere lies.
Some OF them are true. For instance.
It is undoubtedly true that Napoleon
IAN Theoretically foolish, reckless
man in matters affecting his physical
welfare-did deprive himself of sleep
in his early years. But he paid for it
dearly. In his last battles his power
Of resistance was 80 slight that he &C.
tually went to sleep during the fight
ing. Chronic drowsiness weakened
his brain, weakened his force of char.
acter. The foundation OF his final
ruin was laid in Russia, when lack of
sleep and unwise living generally had
taken away his mental elasticity and
deprived him OF the power to form and
carry out resolutions.
It is mainly the young man who
needs the lecture on sleep, for the ex.
perience OF years soon proves to every
human being the folly of cheating ma
ture by adding few hours of drowsy
consciousness to the day.
You begin life with a certain amount
OF vitality, certain initial vital We.
locity, which carries you through life
and makes possible certain accom-.
plishments. When you deprive your.
self Of sleep you squander this original
capital. Just as surely as the young
speDdthrift ruins himself financially
when he throws away bis money, just
90 surely you bring irreparable loss
upon yourself when you 60 without
sleep.
The food which you eat is digested
and transformed into new tissue, into
blood, nerve, muscles and brain while
you are sleeping.
Look at the men who engage in the
atrocious six-days walks and bicycle
races. They eat enormously, absorb.
ing in one day FIVE times as much a.
the ordinary man can possibly swal
low. But the end of their task finds
them extremely emaciated. Lack o.
sleep has made it impossible for them
to transform the food into new tissue.
Any man or woman who has suffered
from insomnia will confirm this state
ment, that lack OF sleep decreases
weight and diminishes vitality NOR,
quickly than anything else.
Remember this when you brag fool
ishly about going without sleep.
A man can 60 forty days withou,
solid food. He can live seven days
or even longer. without food or water
He cannot live seven days withou,
sleep. The Chinese, ingenious in tor
msnts, discovered no worse death than

chosen with regard to its nutritive value
but for its pleasure to the palate. As
natural result the stomach is overloaded
with a quantity of innutritious material
and the body is deprived of its due nour
ishment. Presently disease of the stom-
ach and digestive and nutritive systems
begins. frequently involving heart, liver,
kidneys and other organs.
THE PROSPERITY OF AMERICA
gives every man the opportunity for
good living, and almost every man takes
advantage Of the opportunity. The aver
age laborer in the United States lives as
only very prosperous people can live in
Europe. He lives too well. 1t is sing
ular thing to say but it is nevertheless a
fact that one of the greatest evidences of
national prosperity is found in the great
army of dyspeptics which is being newly
recruited every day in the year by good
livers. The great trouble is that when
a man wakes up to the fact that his stom.
ach can't be abused with IMMUNITY, the
damage is already done. He has joined
the army of dyspeptics, the people with
wweak" stomachs. He can't eat much
now without it hurts him. His stomach
seems unduly distended after eating
There are bitter risings and belchings,
q constant feeling OF discomfort and
weight in the region of the stomach.
Probably, too. the liver becomes sluggish,
and there is feeling of lassitude with
headache.
These are only few of the signs and
symptoms of diseased stomach involv-
ing the other organs of digestion and
nutrition.
Disease won't cure itself, so that it's
folly to neglect treatment thinking rit
will be all right again after time"
Disease never stands still, 50 that every
