ing question in every municipality

NJ. Cohen, the Decatur street, At
lanta, merchant, who has been wag-
ing a stiff fight for several years in
the higher courts against serving a
term of thirty days in the city stock
ade for violation of the prohibition
law, gave up in despair, and is now
doing time with his son-in-law, Sam
Loeb, who is there for a similar Of
Tense. When the police raided Co
hens store about three years ago
they found a quantity of liquor and
beer stored away in the refrigerator.
His arrest was on the eve of Loeb's
marriage to Miss Cohen, and Cohen
claimed that the drinkables were be-
ing kept cool for the wedding, and
were not in the place of business for
the purpose of sale. Judge Nash R.
Broyles imposed fine of $500, SEN
fenced him to thirty days in the
stockade and bound him over to the
state court. He appealed, and car
ried the case to the highest court in
Georgia and Judge Broyles was up
held. Then the appeal went to the
federal courts, but Loeb, who was
appealing in a separate case for
similar charge, was turned down
first, and yielding to the precedent
Cohen surrendered to his
bondsmen.

The Spartan mother, when she
sent her son into battle, handed him
his shield and cautioned him that
he might return on it, not without
it. The Grecian mother taught patri-
otism to her son by telling of the
valor of his forefathers, and to this
day they hear at night the sound
of hOrsemen on the plains of Mara
thon. The Switzer tells of William
Tell, and then pOrtrays that picture
OF the boy with the apple on his
head. The American-those who
boast that they are from the states
tells of the virtues of Washington,
and relates the little story about the
Ratchet and the cherry tree. But
the Southern mother, when she wish

patriotism which was born in the
breast of her boy and to teach him
the virtue Of duty done-she tells
him of that ideal of southern man

Protesting against the Georgia sys-

duced in the legislature this sum-

Georgia is one of only seven states
in the union which still retains the
system of jury trial for insane peo-
pie. The amendment will also seek
to do away with the present system
of combining insane people in county
jails for as long as ten days after
they have been declared insane be-

The bill provides that the ordinary
of the county in which the alleged in
sane person lives shall appoint a COM

Ordinary under signature and oath,

MACON, Ga.-There was perhaps
a more general and elaborate OBJ
servance of Memorial Day in Georgia
than ever before in the history of the
institution In every town of the
state, and in some of the smaller cit

practically all day. In Macon and
the larger cities the business houses
were closed during the ceremonies in
the afternoon. Rain, which threat

Five handsome monuments, erect

Daughters of the Confederacy, were
unveiled in as many counties-at

their comrades in the mysterious
bourne. The percentage of veterans
who have passed away since last Me-

most of the men who went to the

WOMEN ARE DRINKING MORE
FROM SHOPMAIDS TO THE PAM.
PERED DANES OF SOCIETY.

EANLD JAMES OH SOS1kIN.
AdulteratiOn of Liquors Is Making,
Them More Injurious to Health.
Curing Drink Evil by Hypnotic
Suggestion Is the Latest.
BALTIMORE, Md.-At the con-
vention of the American Society for
| the Study of Alcohol and DINER Mar
cotics at the Hotel Belvedere DR..
John D. Quackenbos of New York
told of his success in the cure of
drunkenness by means of hypnotic
suggestion.
Drinking Among Women.
After saying that more than a bill
lion and quarter of dollars worth
of alcoholic drinks are consumed in
the United States annually DR..
Quackenbos declared that the drink
habit is growing, especially among
women, from the shopmaid and the
nymph du pave to the pampered
danes OF society. School misses and
college girls are conspicuous among
the throng. When the constraints of
| self-respect break down with the
moral elements of the brain cells
gross indiscretions are natural con-
sequence.
After showing the many diseases
caused by alcoholism the speaker
said many drinks are adulterated and
thus made more dangerous to health,
'Amylic ether" he said, cor the
whiskey trade, is the deaths river
setting in resistless current toward
murder, robbery, misusage of wo-
men, paresis and the asylum"
DR.. Quackenbos stated that he had
treated more than a thousand cases
by hypnotic suggestion, accomplish
ing nearly 80 per cent of cures. $50"
he said, lin the language of Helena,
| 'all's WE'LL
Our remedies oft in ourselves
do lie,' which we ascribe to heav-
en-"
After describing his method of
putting the patient to sleep DR..
| Quackenbos said:
| He is assured that in accordance
with his own desire and decree he
has lost all craving for beer, whis-
key, wine; that alcohol in any form
will disgust him, and as a safeguard
he cannot swallow it, cannot carry it
in glass to his lips
While suggestion played an i'm
pOrtant part Dr. Quackenbos stated
that physical ailments due to ex-
cessive use of alcohol had to be
treated separately in order that per-
feet health might be restored.
ut would be immoral" he said,
ito suggest to the patient what the
brain and nerve organs are incapable
of doing. 1t would be equally i'm
moral to withhold the drugs that
make them capable
Absinthe Habit Is Growing.
Absinthe came in for a discussion
just as alcohol, and DR.. Quackenbos
said its use in this country is be-
coming more general. ''To him." he
said, who persists in it's use it
means, as Marie Correh depicts it.,
more than death; it means crime of
the most revolving character, brutal
ity, apathy, sensuality, frenzy"
In dollars and cents, he said 20
! per cent more money is spent for to-
bacco in the United States than for
bread. He also said the tobacco hab-
it causes rs per cent of all cases of
alcoholism. Tobacco, he said, causes
degeneracy, especially in the young,
makes them listless, backward in
study, guilty of falsehood and theft,
and generally unprincipled.
