CAPT. c. +. STRONG.

After studying the instructions for
a few evenings, 1 selected three young
men as subjects and found that 1 could
control them perfectly. Money could not
purchase the knowledge which I have al
ready gained. Hypnotism develops within
one a power and a force Of Character
which can not be acquired in any other
way. 1 believe it is far more valuable
than medicine in the treatment of most
diseases and bad habits. 1t cures where
medicine falls
Five thousand copies Of the handsome
ly illustrated work to which Capt.
Strong refers are to be given away BY the
American College of Sciences absolutely
free for the purpose of acquainting the
public with the practical uses and marvel-
Gus benefits to be derived from a study
of the sciences of hypnotism, personal
magnetism. magnetic healing, etc. The
book explains how. people have been Sc
cretly Influenced without their know
ledge; how hypnotism may be
used to develop a wonderfully magnetic
personality. 1t treats on new processes
for developing win power; how to infiu-
ence people at a distance; how to make
others carry out your ideas and think
they are carrying out their own. How
people have achieved success and grown
wealthy through the practical use Of hyp-
motto power.
The work is handsomely illustrated by
half-tone engravings. and is by far the
most remarkable publication Of its kind
ever isued. Every page is brimful Of in
tensely interesting and practical informa-
ton. 1t is a book that should be in every
home; it is enthusiastically Endorsed by
the most prominent ministers Of the Cos
pei, lawyers, doctors and business men OF
this country Remember that 1t costs

TALLULAH FALLS MAY
BE VIEWED WITHOUT COST

TALLULAH FALLS. Ga. June 2O.-The
owners of the Cliff House at Tallulah
Falls have decided not to make any charge
or demand any admission fee from those
who desire to view the lovely and ma
jestic falls of the Tallulah.
In the future this entire region Of beau
ty will remain free to all. 1t was sug-
gested to Messrs. Moss and company.
owners of the Cliff House estate that they
charge a small admission fee to those de-
string to view the river. chasm. etc. from
their property, the intention being to
build new gangways,- bridges and obser-
walton houses with the. proceeds thus col
lected. This experiment has been tried
during the past few weeks, and doubtless
with unique success.
r. L. Moss. Jr., has decided against
such action, and so these grounds win re-
main freely open to all, paradise for the
excursionist.
Every year the number of visitors TO
TalIulah Falls, during the summer season
becomes greater, and this season Is ex-
pected to be a banner one. Already Wis
itors are arriving by every train.

Sans, general superintendent of the Vir-
ginla-Carolina Chemical company and
Mr. Norman Pike. who Is to be superin-
tendent Of the plant here, were in Ameri-
Gus yesterday, making arrangements for
an early commencement on the erection
of the fertilizer plant.
1t will be one of the finest and most
complete in Georgia. The land purchased
for this purpose consists of $50 acres. and
has excellent water facilities, fronts on
two railroads, making II very desirable
and accessible location 1t is just outside
the city limits, thus escaping the city tax
alton, while the city at the same time
derives all the benefits therefrom.
Architects are at work on the plans,
and as soon as submitted. contracts will
be let for lumber. brick and other build
ing material Before the building can
commence, however, 1t Is necessary to lay
some sidetracks and to this end the chief
engineer of the Central railroad and the
chemical company were making surveys
yesterday.
When the plant is completed it will cost
$4,000 and will turn out $4,000 annually
from its pay rolls.

Her wedding clothes were all bought, but
the date came and passed without a mar

ICE IN AUGUSTA
SELLS FOR A SONG

AUGUSTA, June Alan ice war Is on
in Augusta which is greatly enjoyed by
the people. It has brought down the price
of ice to nearly one-half its former price.
This is caused by the fight between the
new company and the allied old compa-
MES. which has reduced the price Of ice
TO % cents per 100 pounds. One effect OF
this fight is the attitude of the retail
dealers, who complain that the companies
deliver ice by retail to customers at such
low price that the retail dealers are vir-
tually knocked out and these latter claim
as a measure Of protection to them the
manufacturers should be compelled to
take out retail license for every delivery
wagon they run.
They have appealed to the mayor, and
the matter is now being considered by the
city attorney.
Meantime the ice war is a God-send to
the people this torrid weather.

SOLD IN CLAY COUNTY

Under a decision rendered by Attor-
ney General Boykin Wright, Clay
county viii remain a dry county for the
next four years and no whisky can be
legally sold there within that time.
Several years ago a local dispensary
act was passed. giving the people the
right 10 abolish dispensaries whenever
they saw NJ and empowering the mayor
and council OF Fort Gaines TO regulate
the liquor traffic when the people no
longer wanted a dispensary. Some time
ago the dispensary was given up and the
mayor and council issued licenses 10 bar
rooms.
An election under the local option law
was held a short time ago and the county
was voted dry The mayor and council
then appealed 10 the attorney general for
an opinion as 10 wether the local option
law has precedence over the local dis
pensary law and inquired II they could
not under the local law open up saloons
again. Attorney General Wright held
that they could not and his decision
means that Clay county viii remain dry
for four years as under the law another
election cannot be held within that time.

USE OF TOBACCO
MAKES BISHOP MAD

MILWAUKEE, Wis, June a.-Bishop
Nicholson. of the Milwaukee Episcopal
diocese, has created a mild sensation
among the priests and laity of the do
cese by issuing a sort ofsa pronuncia-
mento against the use of tobacco. The
pronunciamento is submitted as an OBJ
ject lesson and while the bishop COM
mends it to the good judgment of the
priests without decreeing against the use
of tobacco in so many words, neverthe-
less II has created quite considerable
stir. The bishop maintains that there is
not one trace of spiritual help or physi-
cal gain from the use of tobacco, but I'M
told evils have resulted from its use.
The extent to which the bishops abb
horrence toward tobacco goes is evil
denced by the statement that If 1t is true
Sir Walter Raleigh introduced tobacco
into England, "'Tis a pity that the ship
that carried him did not sink in the
ocean,
