Jumps 10 Feet When Shot At

Bud Curry and Mike Spinnard,
colored men, engaged in quarrel a
one CT the lime kilns near Strasburg,
whereupon Bud, SO Mike alleges, un-
dertook to show him how he could
fling lead, and shot three times at
Mike, with the only result that the
target jumped ten feet high at each
crack of the gun.
Mike does not like to have lead
Sizing through the air in his direc

Huff for protection. The magistrate
issued the necessary papers and will
seek to impress on Bud the necessity
for selecting less supple and nerv-
GUS target in future then Mike proved
to be.

Los ANGELES. July 10.-Job Har-
riman, the first witness of the barrow

said the only safe in the suite was in

held by himself, his secretary and John
r. Harrington. The defense will try to
establish a strong suspicion that Har-
rington unlocked the safe and gave
Franklin $4,000, which he had slowed
away there in a box which he kept in
the safe.

THE FREQUENT USE OF
THE KNIFE CONDEMN
WE MUST AGREE THAT IT rs
BETTER TO SPARE A
THOUSAND GUILTY
THAN TO HANG
ONE INNO-
CENT.

In the course of a short talk last
evening the chief of the staff of United
Doctors forcibly expressed his views
on the frequent operating in diseases
of women. Among other things, he
said:
ut Is not my purpose here to antag-
onize my surgical brothers, but we too
often see brilliant descriptions of hair
raising operations with wonderful
survival of the patient 1t is great
credit to the profession to have pro-
duced men with such skill as to enter
ones very vitals and remove the most
delicate organs. Surely we can not
| bestow too much praise upon men with
such marvellous accomplishments. But
did you ever stop to think that there
might be a patient now and then who,
under skilled medical directions, might
have been saved such hazardous pro-
cedure and still have been cured?"
We must agree that it is far better
to spare thousand guilty ones than to
hang one innocent one. l believe that
were we TO use sound reasoning and
exercise due care, at least some of our
patients would escape the necessity
for an operation. I do not mean to in
fer that all cases can be treated with
out, the surgeon, but | do mean to say
that q very large majority of our fe-
male pelvic affections can be so treated
as 10 give the most startling results TO
both patient and physician. Not more
than so years ago all these pelvic trou-
bles were treated by the family physi-
clan in a way that made our ancestors
famous, and they were treated with
out the use of the knife.
When we have a case of infiamma-
ton about the heart or Inflammation
of the lungs, were we to pursue the
seme course as we do with infamma-
ton of the uterus or ovaries, cut them
out, what would become of our pa
tents? Now, were we to treat our fe-
male troubles as we do our lung trou-
bles, there is no doubt that our hos
pitfalls today would be less crowded and
more of our women would be restored
to health.
1t Is just this conservative treatment
that has made the United Doctors ia
nous in our larger cities, and 1t will be
by curing women that have been con-
demned to the knife by the family doc
tor that will make our Atlanta office
equally famous
Consultation and examination free,

Fifth Regiment Wants Good

What's the use being a soldier if

imal pets trained to keep off hoodoos.
OF course, the Fifth regiment is go
ing to Admission next week Every man
who could get a vacation has been
overhauling his outfit and getting ready
for the trip Quite a number went to
the station to see the four companies
from the Seventeenth entrain, and
that's where they got the mascot fever.

little white poodle jumped off a coach
and started up the street. After him
came a sergeant in full uniform. The
train was stopped until the chase had
ended and jerks" mascot of Company

They Come as Fast
As They Leave.

When is Atlanta not Atlanta?
Now-say the railroad men and mer-
chants of the city According to the
representatives OF several important
roads which lead into the city, more
than so per cent of the city's perma-
nent population is out of the city just
at present The majority Of these arl,
of course, spending the whole or trag
mentary parts of the summer at the
various resorts stretched out along the
coasts or in the mountains or at coun-
try homes A smaller part is away on
business.
Meanwhile, however the citys popu-
lation-the crowd on Peachtree street
for instance, has not decreased notice
ably The reason is that as fast as a
native leaves the city some one steps
in from another city to take his place
The most of these come for few days
shopping trip, while others come for
extended summer stays. Atlanta being
a popular resort for those who are not
natives.
So it is that Atlanta is truly not her
self, but a composite of Georgia and
the South. The difference is easily no

500 Ways To Be Beautiful.
25 Cts.

1t was evidently the title of a beauty
book. The young woman, who was not
pretty, but certainly not unbeautiful,
seemed lost in mathematical thought
for several moments more The little
finger of her right hand worked fever
ish figures in the air and there was a
stern pucker between her eyebrows.
Finally she reached in her purse and
extracted a penny. Approaching the
clerk, she gave him the copper piece
and said
Show me one way, please, and keep
the change"
In the language of the day, the
clerk was fiabbergasted.
