Why Men Surrender.

Women as frequently dominate
men by the capacity for being dis
agreeable as they do by their power OF
charm. For the majority of men,
some Of them because the obligation
to fight their own sex in the perpetual
struggle for existence leaves them
only tired faculties wherewith to
meet the other, pursue in their deal
ings with women a peace-at-any-price
policy. 1t thus happens that wom-
an who possesses talent for being
ungenerously disagreeable is able to
keep her menkind in a chronic state
of meek surrender.-The Mating OF
Aanthea.

One word should like to rub out OF
the vocabulary used by human beings, one
toward another. 1t is the word "don't."
Looking back over somewhat full and
varied experience, can say that in my
Judgment didactic prohibition issued from
soul to soul, for every ounce of good it
has done, has made pound of harm.
sDon't' is the stupidest, most brainless
and LATEST of all parental terms. To tel
a child what to do requires thought, inves-
tigation, interest To tell anyone what not
TO do requires no cerebration.
"Don't' is the language of annoyance

Many people are, no doubt, interested
in the subject of sleeping out of doors.
Many have probably utilized their porches
for that purpose during the summer
months who will move indoors with the ap-
proach of the first cool night. Like the
birds, they migrate to warmer climes.
My advice is stay out all winter. It
will do you more good than you realize and
the hardships will be only those that will
really be benefit to the average person.

HOTELS AND COMMERCIAL TRAV
ELERS

Last year the proprietor of a Cali
fornia hotel charged a travelling sales
man 81 day for room he was sup
posed to have for 81, because at that
time a convention in the town made
an extra demand on the hotels. The
salesman promptly put himself in
touch with some real estate ag auts
and purchased the hotel outright. BY
noon the following day the proprietor
was notified that the house had chang
ed ownership and the rent would be
doubled at the expiration of 80 days.
For some time the drummer turned a
deaf ear to the pleadings of the MOTEL
man, but finally a compromise vas
reached by which the hotel man was
compelled to pay only slight adj
vance in rent, with the distinct provi-
so that in the future travelling men
should always be given accommoda-
lions at their regular discounts no
matter how great the demand for
rooms. This hotel is still owned by
this traveller who gives it rigid inspec-
ton each time his duties take him to
that city, and it is now better pay
ing investment than ever before.

MODERN WAR

"One of the greatest incentives to
military career says a Philadel-
phia editor, has always been the pre-
ference of women for military uni
form. Now that a military uniform is
coming to look like a suit of overalls
Venus will soon turn away in disgust
from Mars. Vulcan, in his leather
apron, is about as attractive as Mars
in uniform, which the enemy cannot
distinguish at 1000 yards from a pile
of dirt or a clump of dead bushes"
The glittering sword, the gaudy
uniforms, the plumed hat, by disap-
pearing, have taken the romance out
OF war, adds the Montgomery Adver-
tiser. Perhaps our women, while still
admiring courage, no longer adore the
killgod for his ability to fight alone.
Men still have a weakness for acting
the fool for woman's applause, but
the khaki uniform has helped to make
him adopt other means than war to
gain it.
Modern brains conceived the idea
that it would be a saving in human
lives and a decided disadvantage to
the enemy if soldiers were as hard to
see as possible, so the khaki uniform
was adopted. The more closely the
fighting soldier resembles a clay
bank the more serviceable he is in
war. Our modern fighter looks less
gorgeous, less pompous, his epaul-
lettes less dazzling. He isn't pretty
any more.
A writer on the war between
France and Germany made the state
ment that the main cause of Frances
defeat was due to her soldiers going
to battle" while the Germans went
to war" The French have long been
noted for their gay adornment of per-
son and name and perhaps that sense
of self-consciousness felt while NOV
ing under the plumes weakened them
before an aggressive and less gaudy
enemy.
Welcome the saddle-colored uni
form of the American If it has rob-
bed war of his glamour, it has done

enemy in doubt as to the location of

WOMAN. LAW GRADUATE NOT
ALLOWED TO PRACTICE IN
GEORGIA

Judge Pendleton of Georgia, Fri
day in Atlanta refused to admit to
practice at the Georgia bar Minnie
Anderson Hale, of Alabama, who had
graduated from the Atlanta law
school, and ruled with his refusal,
that the state code of Georgia speci-
fically prohibits women from practic-
ing law in this state by that section
of the code which begins, ANY male
citizen of good moral standing, etc"
The only objection to Miss Hale's
admission was that she was a wo-
man. If Judge Pendleton's interpre-
tation of the code stands-and Judge
Pendleton had been reversed very
few times in his career-no woman
can practice at the Georgia bar.
Miss Hale had intended practicing
her profession in Atlanta. She
graduated with very high honors.
Miss Hale should come to Florida,
where there is a splendid field for
women along al lines.

A Sinecure

of the Society of the Army of the Pc

both sides" said General King. but
the brave confederates suffered
more.

CORONATION MUSIC BEAUTIFUL

To many of the thousands of per-
sons who filled Westminster Abbey
the musical program was one of the
most interesting and pleasing feat
ures of the entire service. The music
was furnished by Sir Frederick
Bridges mighty choir of Westminster
Abbey, which was augmenter for the
occasion by 400 voices from the choir
of st. Pauls cathedral and Savoy.
Among the soloist choiristers were
some of England's greatest singers
accompanied by orchestra and organ.
The musical service opened with the
professional anthem, | Was Glad, by
Sir Hubert Parry. In the middle of
this anthem the boys of Westmin-
ster school exercised their ancient
privilege of shouting "Vivat Rex!"
"Vivat Regina!"
The anthem sung was Handels
Zadok the Priest, which is one of the
four anthems composed by Handel
for the coronation of George II and
Queen Caroline, and has been per-
formed since then at each coronation.
The anthem rendered at that point in
the ceremonies where homage was
paid to the sovereigns was Rejoice
In the Lord, which was specially
composed for the service by Sir Fred
erick Bridge. During the obligatio a
new offertorium was sung, which was
specially sung by SirFrederick Elgar.
During the recess. when their males
ties retired to Henry VII chapel to
disrobe, a grand festival TIE Deum
was sung. composed by Sir Hubert
Parry. At the conclusion Sir John
Stainer's sevenfold Amen was sung,
and at the end of the service the
threefold Amen, by Orlando Gibbons,
who was organists of Westminster
Abbey in 1925.

NEGROES ARRESTED FOR SELL
ING TEACHERS CERTIFl-
GATES

One of the biggest alleged swindl-
ing games ever operated in this state
has Just been unearthed through the
diligent work of w B. Hare, super
intendent of public instruction., who
is also editor and proprietor of the
DeSoto county News. who caused the
arrest of four negroes, one Of whom is
a woman.
Sensational arrests We're made yes
terday and today of negroes charged
with selling teachers certificates un-
eaearned by regular examinations.
Those arrested include W. D
Young, postal clerk on the Coast Line,
now in the Arcadia JAIL Rev. NJ. Per
rifles Pickens, of Lakeland, and
Katie Boston, in jail at Lakeland, and
S. c. Richards, under lock and key at
Ocala
The latter three will be brought to
Arcadia, all to answer the felonious
charge of trying to handle and use
teachers certificates without teach
ers having earned these through ex-
animation.

operated for six years.-Arcadia cor.

WHAT TO DO WITH A DRUNKEN
MAN

First give him drink. Then take
him directly to 2O49 Main street. Jack
sonville. Fla, which is the Kelley In
stitute. There the man will be given
a splendid room, a trained nurse will
be placed in charge of him, and he will
be cared for like a king. He will be
given plenty to eat and drink, and a
dose of pleasant tonic every two
hours. He will not be sick minute
In a few days he will be bright and
active mentally, and feel fine.
When the course of treatment is
completed he will lose all desire for
liquor, his brain will be cleared, his
wrecked nervous system, stomach
heart, liver and kidneys will be in
good condition, and he will be ready
to start life anew. 1t is as wonderful
as diphtheria toxin; 100000 men
have tried it, and have found it the
only cure that has stopped the crav-
ing for liquor. Clergymen, lawyers,
doctors and business men have praised
its effect as one of the most wonderful
things of the age.
