1t was a dark night. for there was
no moon on this Halloween. and the
bare. rugged branches Of the locust
trees rubbed creakingiy In the slight
wind that came from the south.
The big clock In the lower hall
struck the three.quarters after II, and
al the chime died away Eve Farnam
slipped out OF her pretty white bed
and stole to the window. All she
could see was a black wall Of dark
ness. but she could hear the creak Of
the locust trees and the gentle signing
Of the south wind.
Eve shuddered little at the idea
OF going out into that black void all
alone, for she was timid at night.
She always scurried past the dark cor
ners Of the halls. and the shadows on
the stairways had been her dread
since childhood. The rambling old
house afforded many shadows and
eerie corners. and Eve had never out
grown her little girl terrors. much to
the amusement Of the rest Of the fam
lily.
But Eve was eighteen now, and she
had been reading old romances until
her pretty head was filed with fair
ladies and gallant knights and their
deeds Of love and daring. Al no 70
nance had CHANGED In the placid rou-
tine Of her life. Eve Faruam had r.

ty to set her feet In the paths Of ro-
nance.
The rest OF the household was asleep,
for Ewes matter Of fact parents had
never given q thought to the romantic
possibilities Of this merry eve. Mr..
Farnam had removed the iron gates
that no mischievous boys might convey
them 10 the pOstoffice steps or prop
them up against the fountain IN the
public square. He had also muffled

usual hour quite oblivlous to the fact
that his young daughter would dearly
have loved to test her fate and for

apple parings. melted lead. roasted
chestnuts and mirrors.
Eve dressed herself In the darkness
and. grasping her hand mirror In one
shaking hand. opened her door and
slipped out into the black tunnel Of the
upper hall. She tried to still the ter
rified beating Of her heart. for there in
the silent house It sounded to her ears
louder than the ticking Of the great
clock at the foot of the stairs.
She CROPPED for and found the ban
lister and went carefully down the
softly carpeted stairs until she stood
GREATNESS beside the tall clock. She
knew that 1t was dra wing near to mid
night and she must hasten outdoors II
she wanted to test the charm.
1t required another effort Of hurried

path that encircled the house, she
gained confidence by closing her eyes
and cropping her way back to the gray

Eve bumped into the trunk Of a
locust tree and scraped her hand on the
rough bark of another. and. although
she opened her eyes. she Immediately
closed them again. for the darkness
seemed quivering with ghostiy shapes.
Then to the accompaniment Of sough.

her wanderings. For ten minutes she
went around and around and back and
forth over the lawn. always fearful Of

CANCER DUE To
LACK Of POTASH
Disease Caused by Methods of
Preparing Foods, Declares
Physician.

LONDON, Aug. 26.-"The treatment
for cancer is easy for any doctor who
Is qualified to administer castor oil and
to perform a surgical operation" said
DR.. Forbes Ross, lecturing at the Eus-
tace Miles Restaurant on "Cancer-Is
the Problem Solved?"
He argued that the disease was due
to the deficiency of potassium salts in
the body, owing to the popular GUS
tom of pouring away the juices of cook
ed vegetables which contain potash and
other valuable natural salts.
While lime, magnesium and sodium, "
he said, are to be found in practically
every form of food, potassium was often
absent, and the English fashion Of cook
ing results in people eating muck
minus minerals
Fifty years ago 500 women and 200
men per million died Of cancer, and to-
day the figures are 1000 and 500 re-
spectively.
The savage never suffers from the
disease, nor did the negro and other
native races until they began to cook
in white man fashion. Food ought to
be cooked conservatively and eaten
with the natural juices.

town, Hurst gave his bride transfer,
put her aboard another car, and told her
to return to her home; that he would
join her there at IS o'clock" That was
the last seen by the girl Of him.
Instead of joining his bride Hurst took
up his stand in the entrance to a drug
store near Broad and Marietta streets.
His actions soon aroused the suspicious
of the druggist. who notified Officer
Hardy and asked him to watch the
stranger. Hardy at once determined that
something was wrong with the man, and
had just decided to take him into GUS
tody when Hurst announced that he was
crazy an0 requested that he be confined
Hursts father, George l.. Hurst. arrived
in Atlanta today and Immediately called
at the police station. He said he would
take his son back to Griffin during the
day to have his sanity investigated.
Hurst could not be tried here for lunacy,
as he IS a citizen of another county.
The tragic turn of the romance is such
a severe blow to the girl that she is hys-
terical. Members of the family and close
friends are using every effort to console
and comfort her. She and Hurst, it is
understood, had been sweethearts for a
long time. Both she and Hurst are prom
inently connected.

Becomes Insane on His Wedding Day
ASKS TO BE LOCKED UP

Almost Frustrated with anxiety and
fears as to the fate of j. \. Hurst, of
Griffin, whom she married last Thurs
day afternoon and who has been strange
ly missing since the ceremony was per
formed. a girlish bride today learned
that he is a prisoner in the police station,
held as lunatiC. 1t is thought that eX-
citement over the wedding may have tenn
porarily unbalanced his mind.
Within a few hours after he and the
girl, whose home is in fashionable
suburb, had been married by DR.. Virgil
Norcross, Hurst approached Policeman
Hardy at Broad and Marietta streets, and
calmly remarked:
OFFICER, | wish you would lock me up.
I'm crazy, and I'm afraid to be at large"
Officer Hardy who had noticed that
the man was acting queerly and had been
watching him, told him he was just think
ing of locking him up anyway. He then
sent Hurst to the police station, where
he has since been held in cell while the
police were seeking information concern
ing him.
1t developed today that Hurst and his
bride. Immediately following the wedding,
left the home of the minister and boarded

As Atlanta continues to grow and

to spend larger sums in order to
correct the mistakes which we have
made in the past, due largely to the

he had been careful in his contracts
for material had bought at low figures
and there is no reason TO believe that he
would not have cleared the PROFITS he
