FREEZE NOW WOULD KILL
NORTH GEORGIA PEACHES

Lyerly, Ga, March 22-Should
freeze come just now it would mean
no fruit for northwest Georgia. The
buds are just in the right position to
be killed early. No blossoms have vet
been found completely opened out, but
within space of time now the trees
will be full of blossoms. The plum
trees have showed their blooms, and
should cold snap come they would
go the killed route. If no unforeseen
disaster comes, northwest Georgia can
count on good peach crop.

cit had to come-there was no
way by which its advent might have
been averted." This wall in a Paris
newspaper did not refer to a great
catastrophe, but to the ''beauty spot"
the speck of black plaster (which,
worn on cheek or chin, or both,
makes natural tints (real or other
wise) more conspicuous" The
writer adds that when pannier skirts,
high heeled shoes and many puffs in
the hair were fashionable the ''beauty
spot" was a necessary accompani-
ment, and that when the makers OF
fashions consulted old prints this was
found to be so, "and a few wax
heads in the show windows of the
hairdressers decorated with the black
spots did the rest. The fashion was
established, OF rather revived"

GRACE or THE EAST INDIAN

Wall.

Describing the women of India, a
writer says: 'Even the most with
cred toil-worn bag has dignity Of
carriage and a grace Of motion that
the western woman might envy The
'sarp is draped in an easy flowing
style and adjusted as it slips back
with a graceful turn Of the silver
bangled arm; the skinny legs move
rhythmically, and the small feet fall
with a silent and panther-like tread.
1t is the beauty Of natural and un-
trammeled motion and says much in
favor of the abolition of the corset,
for the Indian women retain their
uprightness and suppleness Of figure
till bowed with age.
"Tho commonest type is the coolie
woman, who undertakes all sorts of
rough work, carrying heavy burdens
on her head, and she is perhaps the
least attractive, for her workaday
garments are usually faded and
dirty; yet even among this poor class
of burden bearers we see many with
handsome, straight features and sup
pie, well proportional figures.
"No matter how poor their gar
ments, jewelry of some sort is worn
necklaces of gold or beads, colored
glass or silver bangles and heavy sill

STEFFENS IS
WORSE THAN
ANARCH|ST|C"
National News Association)

LOS ANGELES, July 19.-Stating
his social theories in response to a
searching cross examination by Dis
trict Attorney Fredericks, Lincoln
Steffens, the magazine writer, on the
stand today in the trial of Attorney
Clarence barrow, charged with jury
bribing, asserted he saw nothing
wrong in freeing man whom he knew
was guilty of murder when the motive
was the result of class resentment
against injustice. Steffens, unruffled
by the bruskness of the district attor-
neys manner, went through the long
examination, smiling at times and al
ways willing to answer and explain
his views as well as give the facts in
the case.
Steffens is the most important wit
ness for the defense. Through him
the hope to show that the arrange
ment for bringing in pleas of guilty
in the Mcnamara case had been COM
pleted before the bribery scandal was
sprung.
Steffens today told OF a conference
between barrow and Bert Franklin
the Mcnamara jury list was openly
discussed, and declared he heard no
special reference to any particular
name.
On the cross examination Freder-
icks himself directed the fire of ques-
tions. Fredericks asked Steffens if he
were not an anarchist and the latter
replied that he was worse than that"
In explanation of this remark Stef-
fens said that after the McNamaras
had pleaded guilty and before their
sentence an officer of the court called
on him at his hotel and asked him if
he had not brought money from New
York for the Hartman campaign in
Los Angeles and whether he did not
vote the Socialist ticket. Steffens de-
clared that he told the officer that he
had brought the money but that since
seeing the conduct of the court and the
behavior of the people of Los Angeles
and the whole country, the anger and
violence and hate-actual anarchy
If there were an anarchist ticket in the
field he would give it his support.
Steffens acknowledged that he had
represented all through the negotia-
lions that J. J. Mcnamara would have
10 go free.
In answer to- further questions Stef-
fens admitted that he knew that J. ].
Mcnamara was guilty; that he found
it out shortly after arriving in Los
Angeles last November when he saw
the McNamaras. Steffens said that he
saw nothing wrong in trying to free
man guilty Of crime such as J. J.
Mcnamara had committed, which was
not an individual crime, but social
crime, the result of resentment of
class against injustice, which he char
acterized as a revolutionary crime.
Steffens said in his talk with the Nc
Namaras it was evident to him that
they represented great class of
American citizens who believe they
cannot get justice except by crime.
Steffens concluded by admitting that
he had tried very hard to set J. ]. Nc
Namara free.

Heat Often Tends to Make ::
Women Pale and Weak !;
; They Neglect Their Bowels and !:
. the poisons vitiate the ].
Rto~d 4

Hot weather has a very weakening
effect on women. They become too
Ianguid to exercise and have appetite
for light, tasty foods, like salads and
other cold connections, which do not
digest readily and tend to increase
their natural tendency to constipation.
At this season women, especially,
need all their strength to resist the en-
ervating effect of the heat Good di-
gestion and regularity of the bowels
are essential. Some fruits have laxa-
tive properties, but they are uncer-
tain in their effect, and are not gener-
ally advised. A mild bowel stimulant
and digestant, sNeh as DR.. Caldwells
Syrup Pepsin, is preferable because
it is certain in it's effect, natural in its
action, and wholly safe. Take a dose
of Syrup Pepsin at night and by morn
ing the sick headache and indigestion
will be gone.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold
in drug stores everywhere, and costs
fifty cents a bottle; a larger size, in
tended for family use, costs one dollar.
If you have never used Syrup Pepsin
and would like free trial bottle, post
paid, write to DR.. w. B. Caldwell, 400
