QUIT SOCIAL PRESTIGE,
But TAKES IT AGAIN
Clerk in Telegraph Office Resumes
Position Once Lost.

ATLANTA, Ca. Aug. 3f.-A leader in
the highest circles OF Toledo socially. a
message clerk in a telegraph office in
Atlanta, and then a social leader again
such is an epoch in the life of Helen
Tuelle, who until recently was message
clerk in the office of the Postal Tele-
graph Company here.
Three years ago Miss Tuelle came to
Atlanta with her father, who was a con-
tractor. of Toledo, Ohio. Fortune failed
him, and he lost nearly all of his pos
sessions. He decided to go back to Ohio
and begin anew the search for wealth
Having left rich, Miss Tuelle did not
desire TO go back among her old friends.
So when her father announced his in
tention Of returning TO Ohio she an
nounced her plan for remaining in the
South and working for her own living
She would not listen TO persuasion from
parents, and obtaining a position with
the Postal Company she began work.
Recently letter came from her
father saying that on one of his places.
near Toledo, he had struck an oil well.
and once more was wealthy. He i'm
plored her to return home to her rela-
tives and friends. Miss Tuelle told her
friends of the change of fortune and re-
signed her position as message clerk.
She left for Toledo on Friday to re-
sumo the place she quit few years ago.

there laboratory was opened and the

The young man found plants, from
which he was making an ink that he
expected would be OF great commercial
value. One day. while walking In a
woodland. an insect bit him on the
thumb. Two days later the hand began
TO swell. and from that time his mental
strength waned.
He was unable to concentrate his mind
on his work. forgot words that were used
in ordinary conversation. and In a few
weeks altogether lost the ability to
write or speak coherently.

buy everything that goes to make up thu
free lunch Instances where there are
restaurants in or above the saloon have
been carefully taken into consideration
in estimating the cost of saloon bills
Of fare, and only the places which main
tain lunches absolutely free are figured
in the total
Increased cost of license, from $500
to $500 year, has made big change in
free lunches. Few cases can be cited
where a BARRON in the Southwest
serves such refreshment in so large
quantities as formerly In many saloons
the supply has 'dwindled to about half of
what 1t was last year, and in few
cases it has been dispensed with alto
gether. The larger barrooms in the
Southwest spend about So day for their
food. while the smaller ones supply the
wants of their customers at an expense
of from 81 to SO.
In the opinion of most of the saloon
keepers and bartenders, free lunch is a
nuisance. They say that it ruins the
stomachs of those who partake of It.
After working hours, men often drop
into saloon to buy glass of beer, and,
incidentally, munich at the free lunch.
One bite makes them hungrier than
ever, and before they get out of the bar
room they have eaten enough to spoil
their dinners. When men go home and
cannot eat their wives are offended. and
Justly so.
Many of the barrooms do not put up

many cases, they remove the eatables
about 2. In others. particularly the
fashionable ones, lunches may be had
from o'clock in the morning until the
saloon closes at midnight In many of
these places food is put on the tables in
the morning and replenished twice q
day-at noon and about 6 or O'Clock.

1t was a pathetic story that was told
today by Mrs. E. Desi as she sat in an

win him fame and fortune
The father had been a contractor in
his home In Roumania, and brought with
him probably $4,000. Learning that
wealth was to be found In Mexico. the
father determined to go there FIVE years

protect these rocks with her oyster navy.
She already receives a net annual rev.
enue OF about SAC. 600 from the rental of
so-called barren areas.
II is claimed that on Hampton Bar,
in Elizabeth City county. 100000 bushels
of oysters are sold annually by oyster
planters. where formerly only zoo bushels
were sold from the depleted rocks. It
is also claimed that the planted beds OF
Elizabeth City county yield $500, 900 an
nually in the hands OF planters, where
formerly they did not yield $500, enabling
the planters to give profitable employ
ment to labor
These are a few of the reasons why
some Of the members OF the Legislative
committee may think it wise public poll

The Troop Entertainment.

A large audience was in attendance
at the entertainment given by Troop
ID last Saturday night. The seats
had been arranged to economize
space as much as possible but every
chair was occupied and many were
forced to stand. The hall had been
tastefully decorated with flags and
bunting and everything went to show
that those behind the affair lad real
ized their efforts to make it the event
of the season.
The program was carried out with
out IL hitch of any kind whatever
each performer being thoroughly pre-
pared and acting his or her part in Il
creditable manner.
j. w. Rigby deserves special credit
for the Judgment he used in placing
the parts and the sue cessful render
ing of the program was due in n large
measure to his diligence and tact.
The entertainment was rousing
success from every standpoint and
profuse compliments as TO its merits
are heard on all sides. Troop ID is to
be congratulated on so successful a
elimination to their efforts.
