INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION In

In Bulletin Issued By Uncle

Industrial education in Columbus,
Ca" is the title of bulletin just is
sued by the United States Bureau Of
Education for distribution among edu-
Gators. r. B. Daniels is the author Of
the bulletin. The Bureaus study o.
the Columbus schools is distinctly
commendatory.
The bulletin describes the Nort1
Highlands School as a more or less
typical primary industrial school, AMI
the Columbus High School, giving de
tails of the course of study of the lat
ter institution. Pictures showing the
activities of both schools are included
in the document
In speaking of the national move,
ment for industrial education and the
experiments in Columbus, Commission
ed Claxton said: "All are beginning
to feel that the work of the public
schools should be better adapted to the
conditions and needs of the children,
and that to attempt to run all children
the same kind of school mill,
in the same way and in the same time,
is not best. The city of Columbus, Ga,
was one of the first in this country to
work out certain phases of the problem
of adapting education to the direct
needs of the population

On Her Kitchen Stove

1t is interesting to note that the
most sccessful remedy for woman 5
ills was originally prepared nearly
forty years ago by Mrs. Lydia +.
Pinkham, of Lynn, Mass, by sleeping
roots and herbs on her kitchen stove
and supplied to friends and neigh
bors. without cost. Its fame spread;
the demand grew; until now manI
tons of roots and herbs are used each
year in order to supply this famous
remedy which has proved such mar
velous success in controlling diseases
of women. Merit alone could nave

SUMTER'S VETERANS BACK
FROM STATE REUNION
Most Enjoyable Occasion in
Brunswick

Sumter's veterans returned yeste"
day from the state reunion, Unitc(
Confederate Veterans, held at Bruins
wick, and the concensus of opinion
expressed was that a more enjoyab e
occasion had never been participat-
ed in by the soldiers of the sixties, and
the Brunswick reunion will long be
recalled with pleasure.
Adjutant Gen. Cobb was quite en-
thusiastic over the very cordial en-.
tertainment accorded the veterans
and the complete success of the pro-
gram, as rendered, to which he contri-
buted no small part.
Major General H. T. Davenport, as
state commander of the Georgia divis.
ion, U. c. ", presided over the bust
ness sessions. Gen. Davenport mou
estly declined reelection to the Office
of commander, when the honor was
rendered him, and Gen. Preston, of
Macon, is now state commander.
The social features of the reunion
were particularly interesting, more
especially the grand ball for the vet
Grams and the excursion to St. Simon's
Island.

People Have Made This Test.

Years ago this Americas citizen told
in a public statement the benefit dc
rived from Doans Kidney Pills. The
statement is now confirmed-the tbs,

are numerous. They doubly prove the
merit of Doan's Kidney Pills. Can
any Americas reader demand more
convincing proof? It's Americas tes 4.

Mrs. D. C. Pettis, $40 Mayo street,
Americas, Ca, says: Nothing has
occurred to change my high opinion
of Doans Kidney Pills, and l confirm
all l said in their praise when l pub
licly endorsed them some years ago
Kidney trouble has never returned in

A man of this type is just as big
today as he will be 20 years from

and unlimited prosperity. He is
carrying a portion of the same
stock that he had five years ago,
and unless he happens to have a

SELLS PROPERTY, TAKES
$1,000 and DISAPPEARS
Coleman Tenderly Kisses
Wife and Says Goodbye

Augusta, Ga, July 19.-With $1,000
on his person, the proceeds from the
sale of his home, H. Coleman, an en-
ploye of the city board of health, ten
derby kissing his wife goodbye Sunday
afternoon and disappeared. Nothing
has been heard of him since he was
hailed as he boarded a train for Co
lumbia shortly afterwards, when he
replied 81 don't know" in answer t.
the question of his destination. Mrs.
Coleman, when interviewed last night,
stated that her husbands mind might
be unbalanced, as his actions when he
left her to go downtown were peculiar
in the extreme. His wife fears that he
may be the victim of foul play.
The Colemans had disposed of their
home on Hicks street, preparatory 60
leaving for Ashville, N. c., where they
were to go in search of health. They
have been residents of Augusta for q
number of years and the thoughts of
leaving her native city caused Mrs.
Coleman considerable worry, she stat
ed. Because of her low spirits, Mrs.
Coleman regarded lightly the unusual
actions of her husband, simply attrl-
buting them to evident sympathy for
her in her troubles.
Domestic Relations Ideal
While she is possessed with the
dread that her husband may have been
murdered for the money in his pos
session, that fear is to an extent al
layed by the report that he was seen
climbing aboard train for Columbia
Sunday afternoon. Their domestic re-
lations have been ideal, she says
through their ten years of married life,
AT first Mrs. Coleman was inclined to
believe that the missing man had sud
denly become possessed with a desire
to return to Germany, his native LAM,
but upon mature consideration, sh2
was less inclined to regard this as a
possible cause for his disappearance
Mr.. Coleman is a man of short stat
ure, about five feet, four inches in
height, about As years of age and
weighs about 1876 pounds. He plainly
shows the effects of his recent illness

Atchison, Kansas
By GEORGE FITCH.
Author of AT Good Old SIyTash-n

a TCHISON Is a trifling cOagulation
~ of exceeding interesting folks
4 at the place where civilization
once ended and Kansas began. 1t is
SO 4-100th American. and has no foreign
section whatever. except Mrs. Lysander
John Appleton, who went TO Europe once
and still talks about it.
AtchisOn was founded in the SOS by
slavery advocates and has continued
more or less conservative ever since. 1t
was once the eastern terminus of the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe and de-
rived great advertising from most of
the railroad literature Of the west. The
Santa Fe has moved to Kansas City like
a lot of other prosperous folks and the
tourists no longer get off and buy SOM
brerOs at AtchisOn.
AtchisOn has four railroads and the
Central Branch. and also strives earnest
" to remain located on the Missouri
river with only fair success. When the
Missouri was infested with steamboats,,
AtchisOn was the great outfitting point
for the roaring praiTies and at that time
began a rivalr- with Leavenworth. which
is still superheated, though Kansas City,
st. Joe and Omaha have marched on past
the cOmbatants.
