GARNET BACK IN FAVOR.
inexpensive Stone Now Worn In Mum,
erous Designs.

The garnet is the jewel of con-
stancy and fidelity. 1t is the birth
stone of January, but to Judge from
the new and lavish displays of this
stone at the jewellers its use is by no
means to be restricted to the January
girl.
It's warm red hue harmonizes VOL
with the rich dark reds to be worn
this winter, and it is probable that it
will enjoy return to high favor.
1t is not an expensive jewel. A
bracelet of gold plate, solidly incrust-
ed with garnets in square settings,
costs less than $40, but since mex
pensive iewelry Is so much worn this
piece is not at all bizarre nor in bad
taste.
Brooches of garnets take the old
fashioned round form, although some
show new bird, butterfly and floral
designs, Garnet dog collars are ex-
tremely attractive, and coiffure combs
and pins thickly incrusted with these
stones are very beautiful.

Why Perfect Beer
Means Health
rhe Best Beer Is Possible Only With
Eight-Day Malta Scientific Fact
About Brewing,

A perfect beer is healthful-it builds
lp strength, aids digestion, and acts as
. tonic in giving renewed vitality. A
,erfect beer is possible only with perfect
malt, and n perfect malt can only be
lade by the eight-day process used by
'abst.
Malt is made from barley. Barley
Contains in it's Elementary form the
constituents that go to build up the
,uman system. The process OF making
halt, as some of our readers may
now, is much the same as the process
rowing and the chemical changes that
AXE place when IL sprouts are similar
% the action of the digestive fluids in
he body II the grain We're eaten.
Pabst has proven by scientihc eX-
|eriments and sixty years of practical
rewng that eight days are required
b making malt TO bring about those
|ecessary chemical changes by which
le perfect predigested malt Is pro-
|uced. In many breweries the old
Dur-day process is still used and the
halt is OF forced, unnatural develop
bent. 1t lacks in nutrition and is in
III ways inferior, much of the vital
|abst eight-day mailing process re-
|lins in predigested form In the beer
III of the nutritious, life-giving ele-
| ents OF the grain.
Pabst elght-day malt, the. perfect
1alt, doubles the cost of brewing-but

libbon Beer superior as a nourishing
hnic and a delicious beverage.
! II your food doesn't taste just right,

bur appetite Is poor, drink Pabst Blue
Ibbon beer before or with your meals,
kd find out for yourself how good 1t is.

VERMONTER MAKES PLEA FOR THE BIRDS Hopes Alabama Will Enforce
 New Game Law MEANS MUCH TO NORTH Robins and Other Fine Songsters Come South for Winter and In Past
 Years Thousands Have
 Been Slaughtered.
MEANS MUCH TO NORTH

i To the Editor Of The Age-Horaid: The writer was much gratified in read l ing your timely and admirable editorial in a recent issue, under the caption, Our New Game Law"
 This law is beneficiently designed to pro- tect our song and other birds from wanton slaughter by vicious boys who shoot, almost always for the mere fun of the thing and without regard to hu- | manitarian feeling.
 l am q Nermonter, soiourning, like the migratory bird, for the winter months in the sunny south and I wish to assure the good people of Alabama that her northern cousins sincerely appreciate their determined effort to stop the slaugn- ter of our beautiful and useful song and other birds that. through their marvellous 1 instinct, arc unsuspectngly lead to your balmy borders to escape the rigors of our northern winters
 If you people of the south knew with what keen delight we look and listen, after our long winter months, for the first redbreast and it's welcomed melody, 1 am sure it's temporary abode with you
 
 it has been in the past.
 Only last week l saw two young darkeys with long strings of robins, quail and other birds, their varied colored plumage dripping with blood. triumphantly exhib- itlng their ill-gotten booty on the streets of Birmingham. 1 protested against such wholesale slaughter, saying they would not be allowed to shoot birds in the north in that manner. One of the boys replied, saying, T reckon l will not go up north them
 A few years since a famous southern divine, born and bred in this land of blrd our law and it's rigid enforcement, pro- cured a gun and sallied forth on his mis- sion of murder. He was fined and pun ished to the full extent of the law. stand by this most welcome law, and individually and collectively do all in their power to support Commissioner Wallace in enforcing it. This much-needed reform can only be brought about by aggressive concerted action, and every one who sees a hunter heading for the hunting grounds should make it his or her business to call attention to the new law, for many q man who can shoot birds cannot read word of the law, and has never heard of it-in fact, don't want to.
