TO Chanwe yagrancy Law.


 Representative R. Tyler Goodwin of Montgomery. presented a bill to the House yesterday which is designed to overcome the effect of the decision of the Supreme Court few months ago in the prosecution by the police au- thorities of the State for yagrancy. The measure. In effect, provides that upon the making of prima facie case against man charged with vagraney, the burden of proof shall be upon him to prove that he has some lawful means of livelihood Under the former law, as interpreted by the Supreme Court, 1t was necessary for the prosecution to show beyond a reasonable doubt not only that the defendant was habitual loafer, but that he had no means of supporting himself in zan honest man ner without workingr This the State was in most cases unable to do.

The meeting will be held for the purpose of considering the holding of the third annual fair of the association during the coming fall months.

Advertiser Bureau.

Advertiser Bureau, Selma, Jan. 2i. The police authorities last night arrested Percy Taylor, sonny Stevens and Harriet Carter for-the robbery of the dry goods store of I. Blauner on Washington street. The robbery Of the store took place Saturday night be- tween 12 and 1 o'clock during heavy rain storm The woman Harriet Car- ter was arrested by the police as an accessory and they are looking for another negro who is implicated in the breaking into the store.
 About 1 o'clock Sunday morning Off, fieer Hutchinson at the union passen- ger station arrested Percy Taylor as a suspicious character. He was wear ing at the time he was arrested fine pair of new hunting boots and the off cer brought him to police headquarteit Just previous to the bringing of the negro to police Headquarters 1t was found out that the Blauner store had been entered.
 me nair of boots which Percy Tay- Tor was wearing at the time that he was arrested, was identified by MT, Blauner as some of the goods which had been taken from his store Taylor later made a confession Of the robbery and told dow the store had been enter ed and how one or the tnieEer hhu traded some of the stolen goods to the woman Harriet Carter. The Carter wor:Sn told the police that she had hidden the goods which had been given to her under some bushes in the wes- tern outskirts of the city but when the police went to look for them they could not be found.
 white man named Treadwell later informed the police authorities that about o'clock Sunday morning he was near the county bridge across the river when he saw a negro cross from the city with a sack upon his shoulders and that after the bridge had been crossed he went under te approach and left his sack. The police investi- gated the matter and found under the bridge four tailor made suits for woni- ems wear which had that night been stolen from the BlatAner store.
 During the heavy rain storm Satur- day night the thieves went to the front door of the store on Washington street and breaking out one of the front glasses entered the place. When once within the store they helped them selves to what they wanted and left without being caught. It is estimated that they carried out of the store about s200 worth of dry goods of various dis cription.

What Medicine Knows Today

for such things is a habit, pure and
simple, and a bad habit.
1t is just as easy to teach it to do
without its rubber ring-just as easy
and q great deal more humane and
sensible.
Ten days after they are born, babies
begin to acquire habits. These may be
good habits or bad ones, according as
the mothers are sensible or the reverse.
If the mother of an infant-or its
grandmother or aunt or nurse-rocks,
bounces or nurses it every time it cries,
IL almost Immediately notices the con-
nection between the two things, and so
a bad habit is formed. If, on the con-
trary, a deliberate effort is made TO
teach it good habits, it will acquire
them just as quickly and cling to them
just as tenaciously.
During its first few months healthy
infant should be fed regularly cv ny
two hours from daylight until II D. III.
Then 1t should be put to bed and kept
there, without food. until o'clock the
next morning. In the case of baby
that has been fed every time it cries,
the inauguration of this regime will
almost certainly bring forth heart
breaking protests. The first night for
instance, it win yell most piteously--
and, SO, too. the second and third
nights. But after that it will go 10
sleep when it is put to bed. and sleep
without interruption until daylight
And when it does that it will have ac-
quired a habit that is healthful and
normal. and one that will conduce to
its good health to the end of its life.
The baby which sleeps by fits and
starts and must be walked up and
down the floor is baby with an I'M
wise mother If you don't believe that,
pay a visit some night to an up-tO-
date maternity hospital, wherein

among those who are violently ill you
will never hear a sound between mid
night and dawn.
The connection between bad habits
and illness is obvious. The baby which

It's power of resistance is thus lowered.
and when the germs of disease assail
it, 1t falls an easy victim. The serene
and good-tempered child, which has
been taught to eat and sleep with reg

And the child which has a mother SEN

and clean food.
The best of all food for the baby is

is little short of aSSaSsinati ton. There
was no need for Mr.. Roosevelt to point
out this fact. The mortality tables had
revealed 1t long before it was brought
to his attention.
Often it is difficult to inquire closely
into the source of the family milk sup
ply, but in all cases it pays to take the
trouble. The milk given to infants
should be absolutely free of germs. and
this freedom can be attained only by
proper pasteurizing Therefore the
family physician should be consulted
and his advice followed. He should he
consulted too, when it is proposed to
feed the baby upon any one of the
many artificial foods on the market
Many of these are most excellent but
it is necessary that the peculiar needs
and idiosyncracies of each baby be
properly studied and understood before
they are administered.
