crop prospect in the state, said yes

ago after having gone carefully over
the greater part of the state. And

south Georgia, and it has deteriorated
here greatly within the past month.
Mr.. Hudson feels safe in putting his
estimate at 100000 bales, or 1,600,-
600 at the very extreme figure as the
result Of late frost. Georgia's great
est yield in history was the bumper
crop of two years ago, and even then
the total did not go beyond 1,900,-

BEAUTY AND AGE.
The Only Way to Keep Young is to
Keep Ones Heart Young.

No woman is worth looking at after
40, or worth talking TO before is q
cynical saying which has not much of
the proverbial grain of truth in it, for
1t certainly is a fact that in society to-
day the women who have the greatest
success are the more or less matured
ones who have realized that, since grow
old we must, the least we can all do is
TO grow old intelligently. 1T is a mans
own fault-it is from want of use-if
his mind grows torpid in old age" said
DR.. Johnson, and there is no reason
why when we feel ourselves no longer
OF the crowd We should not still derive
certain mild pleasure from looking on
at it from the outside. The only really
old people are the ones who have never
had any strong interests in life, who
have never felt anything, done any
thing, or been anything in particular.
The only possible way to keep young is
to keep ones heart young; the only pre-
yentive to old age a boundless capacity
Cor sympathy, the possession Of which
will prove in the long run far more eff
cacious in its youth-prolCnging qualities
than the most advertised Methuselah
mixture or the latest meteorological
discovery claiming to destroy the bach

Second ward social last night"
Owing to an influx of visitors it was
late in the afternoon before the genial
editor of the Bugle caught q glimpse
of the great family daily. Half way
down the social column his eye lit on
the following cautious paragraph:
''It is rumored that a card party was
given last evening to a number of re-
puted ladies of the Second ward. Mrs.
Smith, gossip says, was the hostess and
the festivities are reported to have con-
tinued until 1920 in the evening. 1t is
alleged that the affair was a social
function given to the ladies of the Sec
ond Ward Cinch club, and that with
the exception of Mrs James Bilwiliger,
who says she comes from Leavits juno
ton, none but members were present.
The reputed hostess insists that coffee
and waters alone were served as re-
freshments. The Smith woman claims
TO be the wife of John Smith, the So
called Honest Chloe Man., of 315 East
State street.
Shortly afterwards a whirling mass,
claiming to be a reporter on the Bugle
flew fifteen feet into the street and
landed with what bystanders assert
was a dull, sickening thud.-Atlanta

Feather Duster Is Doomed to Go.

| The feather buster is doomed. The
recruits in the warfare against con-
sumption have taken I'D arms against
it, and like the old oaken bucket so
dear to our childhood, it is to be known
TO the next generation only in song
and story. A representative of a COM
mittee of physicians and others who
are fighting against tuberculosis in
New York, recently said:
! I'VE hear a good deal nowadays
about street dust and soft coal as null
! sances and as dangerous to the public
| health, but we are apt to forget that
right in our own homes we often have
a danger that is perhaps just as great
| as either of these.
Methods of cleaning are still in
vogue that have come down to us from
! the days when the wrath Of God was
held responsible for a disease that by
the ignorance of man was fostered be-
hind closed windows and spread with
! houesewifely industry by the feather
/ buster. These old-fashioned ways are
a real menace to health, and so these
mere men who have organized the anti
! tuberculosis movement have come out
with the public announcement about
sweeping and busting"
When you sweep a room raise as lit
tie dust as possible, because this dust,
when breathed, irritates the nose and
throat, and may set up catarrh. Some
of the dust breathed in dusty air
reaches the lungs, making parts of
them black and hard and useless.
If the dust in the air you breathe
contains the germs of consumption-tu-
bercie bacilli-which have come from
sonsumptives splitting on the floors,
you run the risk of getting consump-
ton yourself. If consumptives use
proper spit cups and are careful in
coughing or sneezing to hold a hand
kercfief or the hand over the nose and
mouth so as not to scatter spittle about
in the air, the risk of getting the dis
ease by living in the same rooms is
mostly removed
To prevent making a great dust in
sweeping, use moist sawdust on bare
floors. When the room is carpeted
moisten a newspaper and tear it into
small scraps and scatter upon the car
pet where you begin sweeping. AS you
sweep brush the papers along by the
broom and they will catch most of the
dust and hold it fast. just as the saw
dust does on bare floors. Do not have
either the paper or the sawdust drip
ping wet, only moist
In busting room do not use feath-
er buster, because this does not re-
move the dust from the room, but only
brushes it into the air so that YOU
breathe it in; or 1t settles down and
then you have to do the work over
again.
Use soft, dry cloths to dust with and
shake them frequently out of the win
dow, or use slightly moistened cloths
and rinse them out in water when you
have finished. In this way you get the
dust out of the room
In cleaning rooms you shold re-
member that dust settles upon the
floors as we'll as on the furniture. and
is stirred into the air wa breathe by
walking across the floors. You can
easily remove all this dust in rooms
which have bare floors, in houses.
stores, shops, school rooms, etc, after
the dust has settled, by passing over
the floor a mop which has been wrunR
out so as to be only moist not dripping
wet.

How to Keep From Growing Too
Stout,

The lesh-forming habit, when not
congenial, is usually due to the fact
that a person during youth and active
life eats a certain quantity of food
necessary to growth and sustenance,
and then when maturity is reached
keeps up the habit of eating after the
body demands less.
The best way to avoid obesity as age
creeps on is TO cut down down the ra-
lions so that they will meet only the
demand and leave no excess, because
nature, which is not wasteful, stores
the surplus up as fat, to be held in
reserve for emergencies. 1t is this sur
plus, this overstock, which In middle
age causes people TO grow stout.
The trouble is that long after the
body demands less food, people. be-
cause of the pleasure they find in eat
ing, or from habit or Indifference, con-
tinue to maintain the rations of young
er days The result is that the nutri-
ton in excess of that demanded to
maintain the system is piled up as sur
plus in the form of fat, and this sur
plus fat, like fuel crowded into the fur
mace. is not conducive to the best health
results, and is, in fact, absolutely in
furious.
Some forms of food tend to produce
fat more rapidly than others, namely,
the starcres and sugars. Hence, when
there is a tendency to produce fat
restriction in the quantity of potatoes,
rice and other starch foods is advisa-
bic. Sugar acts as starch in this par
ticular, and not only supplies heat and
energy, but also fat. Strange to say,
the eating Of fat-that is, butter and
fat fneats-does not tend to produce
any excessive fat in the body, since the
FAT which is consumed is practically all
burned. forming heat and energy.
The use of drugs to diminish avoir-
dupois is extremely reprehensible
There are no specifics that prevent
the forming of fat The only way a
drug can diminish fat is by deranging
the digestion, upsetting the stomach
and thus preventing assimilation
