MENDING NOSES WITH RIBS

Writing in medical journal a New
York hospital surgeon cites several
cases OF bone grating of exceptional
character One instance was that
which restored to facial sightliness a
railroad man who came out of an ac-
cident with his nose so disfgured
that there was little of it left The
surgeon took a piece two inches in
length from the patients ninth RIB,
and resting one end of it on the re-
naming tip of the nose, and the other
on the nasal process of the frontal
bone. grated 1t with care The still
living bone OF the rib united with the
nasal structure and formed a rafter
which effeCtually supported the flaps
OF skin which we're brought up over
this newly fashioned feature. Photo
graphs taken before and after show
a marked increase in good looks on
the part OF the patient Another pa
tient was a woman twenty-five years
I'D, who had fallen on her nose when
she was seven years Old The de-
tormity was of the fattened and con-
cave variety The surgeon construct
ed bridge from part OF her ninth
rib, and she Is now enjoying the pos
session OF a nose OF almost Grecian
symmetry.

Rifle for Under Water Use.

When he is working in water infest-
ed by sharks and other sea monsters
likely to do him harm, the diver has
at present to rely for his safety on the
use of the knife or. failing that, on a
quick return to the surface. Now
comes the invention Of Captain Grobl,
a German diving instructor, who has
constructed a rifle which can be fired
under water, and is designed for the
better arming Of the diver The most
remarkable thing about this is that IT
fires, not bullets, but water, which is
propelled with such farce that it has
an extraordinary power of penetration.

ness with the water jet from his

of Alabama.

ONE of the books of that prince of English
humorlsts w. W. Jacobs, is entitled "A
Master Of Craft" He weaves all sorts of
meshes for others, and then gets entangled in
them himself. He tries to do by artifce and
deception various things that others do with
ease by the use OF common honesty and direct
methods.
Consider Hook-it-all Smith of Georgia
Where is there a man in all this Union who
has played the game of politics more greedily,
more hypocritically, and more suicidally?
Not one of his platform pledges has been
redeemed. We still await those vehemently
promised reductions in freight rates Not
even the reductions ordered by r. r. Com
missioner Joe Brown have been put in force.
Alabama-thanks to Governor Comer-has
had the immense benefit of lower rates for
two years. Judge Hines came jauntily into
The JeferSOni0n, several months ago, assuring
us that the Federal I'M junction would be
speedily dissolved as Gov. Conner dissolved
that against Alabama. But we have no sequel.
The Judge rushed out of print. August
passed, September passed, October passed
still no dissolution of that Injunction. What
delays the matter!
Judge Hines was somewhat caustlc in his
reference to Acknowledgement Hewlette Halls
failure to press for a dissolving of the restain>
ing order. But what about Attorney General
Thos Felder-one of the most sinister infu-
ences in Georgia politics? When is he going
to do what Hewlette Hall failed to do? Did
the Governor tell him, in pulic, to 90 ahead
against the railroads; and then, in private,
tell him to let matters stand as they were?
Smith is capable of it.
So we have no sport rates." we have no
drastic anti-lobby law; we have no freight and
passenger charges based on actual invest
ment;" we have no white primary law we
have, instead, a statute that has-temporarily,

that he understands the duties and RESPONSE
balataes Of q citizen.
That's what Hook-it-all has done for the
people Now let us see what he has done for
himself. He went before the people, wearing
the mask of patriotism on his treacherous face,
and he told them that he wanted to be Cover
nor again for the purpose of carrying out
those great policies that he had proclaimed in
1906. It was the ambition of his life to
pefect the work which he had promised the
people to do for them.

this patriotic strain, he qoas laying pipe for
another office, as the people now know In
every possible county tac0 Smith mem were run
for the legislature He never had the slightest
idea of serving out his term as Governor. All
the circumstantial evidence, since come to
light shows this. Therefore, his entire cam
paign for Governor was huge sham and
fraud
After having been just selected Governor,
he dared not face the same people again and
ask for the q. S. Senatorship He knew per-
fectly we'll that he could not win at the ballot
box Devoid of any true pride or principle,
he got from his legislature what the people
would never have given. IF the people had
chance at him, with the Recall, he qoouZd be

AND HE KNOWS IT!
But to proceed:

Over i'm Edgefield, South Caro-
lima.

COME years ago, there appeared in the
- Augusta Ca. Chronicle, historic article
which has enriched my homely mug with
many smile. The writer, lady, lived In the
par excellent city of Thomson. Her purpose
was to enlighten mankind by explaining how
the Savannah river got its name Curiosity
on such matters is strictly legitimate, and
should be gratifed when possible
So this Thomson lady wrote (and The
Chronicle published) story to this effect:
A family that resided on the banks of this
river (which apparently had no name at the
time) was multiplying and replenishing as
per Biblical injunction, when, on an unlucky
day, one of the girls whose name was Anna,
fell into this nameless river
The distracted mother, father sisters and
brothers all went tearing down the river bank,
yelling "Save Anna Save Anna"
And, ever afterwards, the river was called
"Suv0anah," and we were not even told wheth-
err Anna was saved or not.
(As [ stated, this fairy tale was actually
published in the sober old Chronicle. But in
justice to Lawless, must say that the "Save
Anna" romance came out about the same time
that Phil Carroll or Pat Walsh awarded first
prize in an original poem contest to young
lady who had neatly copied it from bool1)
There was a tribe of Indians, named the
Savannahs, who lived along the banks Of the
river; and the stream took it's name from the
Red Men; just as the OcEmulgee the Oconee,
the Appalachee, the Tuscarora, the Chatta-
hoochee and SO many other rivers did
