Worth the Money.-General Sher-
wood, author Of the dollar-a-day PEN
sion bill, thinks the opposition to that
measure unreasonable. The opposition,
he thinks, might profit from this
story:
A recently married couple and a
friend were travelling by train when
they were suddenly plunged into the
darkness of a tunnel There was no
light in the carriage and when they
abruptly returned to the daylight the
bride and the bridegroom were caught
in the midst Of a furtive kiss.
The friend was dreadfully embar-
rassed, and to cover his confusion he
said the first thing that came into
his head.
That -ah that tunnel cost s2,000,-
OOO."
The bridegroom nodded his head
wisely. 1T was worth it," he said.

In case strike is ordered which will
stop operations on all the roads en-

Atlanta has only a normal supply

destined for shipment to the out-of-
town retail trade he said. "Of course,
any strike which prevents trains COM

FOR local custom. There would be a
scarcity Of fresh meats and a marked
shortage OF feed for live stock. but At

Woman Is no longer the salt OF the

explanation Of her general inferiority
D man. Woman. says science. Is too
fresh. The newest conclusion of the
laboratory Is that the physical and
mental development OF a human being
depends on the percentage Of salt in
the blood. The blood OF the man has
more salt than the blood OF the woman.
and for that reason woman can never
expect to equal the sterner sex in
physical force. a or intelligence.
There Is In the Mathis scientific dis

since her facial angle is nearer to that
Of the higher animals than mans is.
for that reason her senses are duller
and pain hurts her less than It hurts
her salty and more intelligent brother.
