NO PROTEST is FILED
TO TAKING OFF TRAIN
AmeriCuS Will Be Terminal
Point.

That Americus will be made the
terminal point for Central train No.
Z, now operated between Atlanta and
Albany and arriving in Americus at
l0:40 p. m.,, seems assured as the
Railroad Commission will doubtless
take favorable action upon the petit
ton of the company The records of
the railroad show that the patronage
OF this train between Americus and
Albany has steadily fallen off since
that all night train between Albany
and Atlanta, with sleeping car SER
vice, was established 1t is not likely
that any opposition to the Central's
plan to discontinue this train will de-
yelop in Albany,

To Mems Clothes Wearers

You are offered daily, all kinds
of clothes to wear; some good, some
bad, some dishonest.
The dishonest clothes are those
made of fabrics adulterated with
"mercerized cotton" made to look
like all-wOOl and sure to wear like
part cotton.
The dishonesty is in the looks
that deceive you; not in the fabric,
or in the dealer. There's nothing dis
honest in "merCerized cotton" fab
ric if you know what it is; some deal-
ers don't know.
The country is full of this stuff
clothes that cheat; they look honest
and they cost honest; but they're a
fraud; and you'll find it when you
wear them.
Hart Shaffner & Marks clothes
stand for all-wOOl, and no mercer
lied" cotton; if you find their label
that's what you get.

He Would Spoil the Pinny.


The christening of the BARN has
been an event in the life of many
. fond father, but it seldom hap
pens that the BARN plays con-
scious part. A clerical friend told
me of an exception the other day.
A son was born to seafaring
member Of his congregation while
he was in foreign parts, and at his
request baptism was delayed till he
could return to stand sponsor for
his child.
He did not return till the boy
was two years old, and for that rea-
son the ceremony took place in the
vestry. All went well until the
sprinkling took place, when the fa-
ther noticed the minister sprinkle
more than his face.
He convulsed the company by
saying in hoarse whisper:
"Thou'lt catch it, my man! That
was a clean pinny this morning.

siderable awe. One day he lost his

task.
"You ought to be ashamed to say
such things and to lose your temper
with an ANIMAL" she said, while the
big sergeant looked shamefaced and
anxious. II shall report your Ian

"To-to her, ma'am ?" faltered

the FOOD QUESTION.
Never Eat Quito as Much - You Thsak
You Want.

The Romans said, eat, drink
and be merry, for tomorrow you
die" And Their banquets quite
eoualed those of the American mil
lionaire of this twentieth century.
They ate, and the Roman empire
died. But we of America choose to
live and to live long and to live
well. And so the maxim of today
is, 'Eat less and be merry anyhow"
Why eat less? Simply because
as a nation we eat too much. Thir-
ty years ago so per cent OF the diet
was meat. Today it has diminished
to one-third.
"Never eat quite as much as you
think you want" is the continual
advice of learned physician to the
young man who would gladly be
Roman if he could.
More and more among leaders in
life is the question of nutrition re-
ceiv;ng attention. Rheumatic peo-
pie learn to do away with meat
diet absolutely. So great is the re-
lief that sweets and other question:
able but much liked articles of diet
soon follow. And, while the prohi-
bitten and restrictions sound hard
of practice, persons do it daily and
always say that they don't care.
Oddly, it is the women who are the
more likely to complain in the be-
ginning.
1t may seem long stretch to say
the food question can affect interna-
tional politics. Yet because the Ia
boring classes of other nations eat
less their living is cheaper and they
work without sacrifice for a lower
wage than our republican born men.
The American laborcr is fond of
things fried and of pies. He eats
heavily during the noon hour, not
stopping to realize that he has fed
his furnace with noncombnstible
stuff that brings unnecessary effort
upon the digestive system. The
foreigner at his side eats more sem
sibly-somehow the older nations
have learned and not taught-and
the foreigner is more "it," more
contented. He is teachable, and his
work is good. He costs less money,
and therefore the international
problem. - Philadelphia North

Plant Lik. . Camel.

The nearest thing to . camel
among plants is curious specimen
Of the cucumber family which bears
the name Of the Ibervillea sonorae.
This plant, like the camel, is a ma
tive Of the desert, and it has to 20
without water longer than the ami
NAL. As the rainy season in the
desert comes only once a year, ma
ture provides the plant with res
ervoir to store up enough moisture
to last it between times. The organ
in which the water is stored is To-
Gated at the base Of the stem. 1t is
covered with a sort Of macintosh
envelope, through which the water
can neither escape nor evaporate.
This water holder rests on the sand
throughout the entire period Of
drought, but when the rain comes it
springs into activity.-ssn Francis

TRAINING DIVERS.
Fhs Way Science Helps Thsss Sub.
marine Werisses.

IN Way Science Helps These Sub.
MARINE Ws-kers.
The admiralty trains divers, and
every British warship carries at
least one representative of the craft
and frequently more. There are
training schools at Portsmouth,
Devonport and Sheerness.
One Of the difficulties with which
divers have to contend is probably
not realized by . landsman-name-
II, that the greater the depth the
greater is the pressure of water on
the mans body and the greater the
labor and exhaustion of working.
The naval authorities limit their
men to q depth of 120 feet. The
greatest depth to which a man has
descended Is said by Siebe to have
been 204 feet, and the pressure at
that depth was extraordinary
namely, eighty-eight and one-half
pounds to the square inch. One
wonders how any human being
could stand it. Twelve fathoms, or
about seventy feet, would be enough
for most men. The ears and nose
would probably begin to bleed, and
the pressure on the head would be
very serious. A practiced diver can
Of course descend much deeper
without such unpleasant sensations.
His dress costs more than f10O.
It is Of tanned twill and rubber and
made in one piece, with big open
ing at the neck. The helmet is Of
copper and screws on to the shoul-
ders SO tightly that the water can
not penetrate the joint. Air is
pumped down to him by pipe made
of canvas and rubber, and outlet
valves, which only open outwardly,
are placed at convenient places to
permit the vitiated air to escape.
These valves are extremely impor-
tant, as by them the diver can reg
ulate his supply of air.
In addition to this pipe the diver
has life line, enabling him to
communicate with his assistants
above water. This was formerly
done by series of concerted tugs
or jerks on the line, but that meth
cd has been superseded as means
Of communication by the telephone,
the wires being conveyed by the life
line. He therefore touches the but
ton and talks as if he were in the
city.
Another great improvement is the
use of the electric lamp, though in
some West Indian waters diver
can see clearly for some distance.
In other waters, again, the darkness
is intense twenty or thirty feet
down. The weight of the dress is
extraordinary and is necessary to
enable the diver to maintain his sta
bility. His helmet weighs consid-
erably over a quarter of hundred
weight, and his boots, taken to-
gether, weigh about as much, while
Il these be not sufficient he claps
lead upon his shoulders.-London
