YIMMY VALENTINE entered his
private office from the room
where the new vault had been
~ erected He saw Rose Lane
standing close to his desk, where Bob

that went with his age. The girls
eyes met his, but only for an instant,
Valentine lowered his gaze to the floor.
his thoughts whirling rapidly through
his brain.
True, at one time he had had serious
thought concerning the beautiful
young woman who had saved him
from Sing Sing, from Warden Handler
and the warden's favorite pastime Of
solitaire"
But of late he had come to realize
that he would be doing her a lasting
wrong. a vital injustice, to permit him
self to make any serious advances to-
ward her. She had been attracted by
him. She was now even more inter
ested in him. He was observing
enough to earn this. AS for his own
emotions toward her? He loved her.
That no one would deny who saw him
in her company. He could not con-
ceal it. Even the infantile Bobby had
guessed what he had endeavored to
make his secret. Yet he had realized
plainly the :ncertainty of his position.
At am moment the unexpected might
happen, or, rather. the expected might
happen, and some one would possibly
uncover and reveal phases of his past
that he would be unable to explain.
Such had been the guiding thought of
Jimmy Valentine in his social inter
course with the bankers daughter
during his tenure as assistant cashier
in the bank in Springfield. and now ha

daily gave "piggyback" rides. at the

The door swung open, and Red stood
before the assistant cashier. But not
even his old mother. if she had been
alive, would have recognized him.
Hair as red as ever it was, eyes as
blue and smile equally as innocent as
that which had misled half a dozen
sternly inclined judges in the court of
special sessions in years gone, yet the
figure that appeared was, and at the

A Simple, Safe, Reliable Way and
It Costs Nothing to Try.


This preparation of herbs, leaves,

smoked in an ordinary clean pipe or
smoking tube, and by drawing the med
icated smoke into the mouth and inhal-
ing into the lungs or sending it out
through the nostrils in a perfectly natu-
raj way, the worst case Of Catarrh can
be eradicated.
1t is not unpleasant to use, and at the
same time it is entirely harmless. and
can be used by man, woman or child.
Just as Catarrh is contracted by
breathing cold or dust and germ-lade1
air Just so this balmy antiseptic smok-
ing remedy goes to all the affected
parts of the air passages of the head,
nose throat and lungs. 1t can readily
be seen why the ordinary treatmen IS,
sucn as sprays, ointments, salves, liquid
or tablet medicines fail-they do not
and can not reach all the affected parts.

throat or lungs, choking, stoppeu-up

ceived orders from Capt A. W. Whip
pie, of the typographical engineers, to
proceed with his balloon and telegraph
outfit to Arlington, across the Poto-

The balloon was filled the next day
at the works of the Washington Gas
company and the inhabitants of the
city were treated to the sight of its
being towed across the Potomac, by
way of the Long bridge, to Arlington.
There is was anchored, and at 4

HENRY D. MARKS HEADS
GEORGIA FRUIT EXCHAN GE

As forecast in The Journal on Mon
day, Henry d. Marks, assistant manager
of the Georgia Fruit Exchange has been
named as secretary and manager Of that
cooperative organization, succeeding 1.
NJ. Fleming, who did not offer for re-
election at the annual meeting of the
stockholders just held. The other officers
named for the new season were: w. B.
Hunter, president, Cornelia; ]. w. Fred
erick, vice president, Marshallville;
Robert F. Maddox, treasurer, Atlanta.
Trustees, A. j. Evans, ]. o. Booton, c,
H. Neisler, A o. Murphey, w. NJ. Row
land. r B. Small, NJ c. Boyd, l. F.
Murph, p. j. A. Berckmans, Jr., and E
B. Heard
Former President 1. F. Murph, who has
served with such entire satisfaction for
the past two years, and P. j. A. Berek-
mans, Jr., like former Manager Fleming
did not offer for reelection and their Of
fees were filled by the members named
without opposition. The selection OF
Manager Marks TO succeed Mr.. Fleming
is happy one for, as stated, he has
been identified with the exchange since
its organization and is personally known
to every grocer in the state. He is a
native of Macon, Ga, but has lived in
Atlanta for the past ten years. He was
with the Armour Car Line for a num-
Der of years and is well up on the trans
portation problems and difficulties.
Notwithstanding the fact the season
lust closed was a poor one on account
of the fruit crop failure, the meeting
was a most enthusiastic one and many
new plans for the Improvement of the
exchange were discussed and adopted.
Practically all of the stock in the ex-
change was represented either in person
or by proxy.

Especial Dispatch to The Journal)
MACON. Ga, Oct 4.-Upon learning
that their pastor, Rev. J. w. Galloway
pastor of the Tabernacle Baptist church,
had written Mayor John Moore a letter
pledging his support the clergymen and
leading members of the church are de-
manding that he make an early expiana-
ton of his actions.
On numerous occasions DR.. Galloway
has ridiculed the present administration
from the pulpit, declaring that they
were a set of schemers and refused to
enforce the prohibition law as 1t should
be, as well as censuring them in other
ways. Aside from this, he has written
the mayor declaring that he would sup
port him in the coming municipal cleo
ton.
Now the members of his congregation
demand that he explain himself.

Macon White WAYS

MACON, Ga, Oct. S.-Plans are now
being worked out by the council COM
mittee on lights to have the White Way
on the main portion of the city extended
over a much greater portion, conse-
quentIy giving the city at night much
more beautiful appearance. The matter
rests with the merchants and if they
will agree to pay for the 16 posts that
are placed on each block, the city viii
furnish the light and other material.
Secretary Lyman, of the chamber Of
commerce, is now working among the
merchants in front of whose places the
white way is proposed to be built and
he reports that all seem to be in FAVOR
of doing their share toward lighting up
the city.
