PAUL GILMORE COMING.

MT. Gilmore's engagement at the Grand next Tuesday night will pre- sent the actor-manager in big domi- nant role of the type which play goers have learned to associate with his name. "The Havoc" is a tense, gripping drama, built upon the story of a duel of wits between an injured husband and treacherous guest in his home. The big role of the play, the husband, offers one of the most convincing characters seen on the stage in recent years, and is played by Paul Gilmore with the quiet pow CT and tense nervous force he showed in "The Mummy and the Running Bird"

Challenge to Young Men.

The situation in China today offers
a great challenge to the educated
Christian men of America. 1t calls for
the best of our university graduates
to reinforce the telling work of those
already in the field. Within the next
fifty years men are to be trained who
are capable of leading 350,000,000 peo-
pie. 1.-THE Chinese leaders are face to
face with the greatest task which ever
confronted men in authority" says
Prof. Treat, a profound student of his
tory, after two visits to the Orient,
where he had opportunity of studying
at first hand the trend of Chinese po.
litical and social movements.
"But the challenge is not alone to
those who can work in China in per-
son." says The Spirit of Missions.

UMBRELLA HIDES
APPROACHING AUTO
and GIRL is HURT

Atlanta, Oct 25.-Miss Jack Wear-
er, an eighteen-year-old girl, tripping
lightly along the street with an UNI
brella shielding her face, stepped off
the curb last night directly into the
path of an automobile.
She was picked up for dead bat
when taken to the hospital it was
discovered that she had simply faint
ed, and that beyond being knocked
down and bruised she was unhurt
The chauffeur, named j. M. Roll
ander, was arrested, but was released
by the police when the umbrella tea
ture of the accident was recounted at
police headquarters by witnesses.

One of the most striking appeals Of
recent months is that of Miss Flor
ence Smith, well known missionary
in Valparaiso, Chile, who tells of the
condition of women in The Land of
the Southern Cross. She says:
From Monterey to Putna Arenas,
from Peru to Uruguay, a woman is
exalted and enthroned. In the cathe-
dral of every metropolis, in every
church in town and village, in every
chapel of the countryside, a woman
reigns supreme From the top IF
Mount Cristobal, the mountain which
dominates the entire Santiago plain, 4
colossal statute of the Virgin Mary
looks down upon hundreds of thous-
ands of devotees.
Surely in land which has exalted
the deal of a sinless, unstained wom-
anhood above every other ideal, we
might hope to find actual womanhood
raised to a level of purity, of intelli-
gence, of culture unknown elsewhere.
"But ask the women of Colombia as
they work with pickax and shovel on
the highway, or stagger under bur
dens too heavy to be borne. Ask the
women street car conductors of Chile.
ASK the multitudes of women in the
whole continent who have lost honor,
self-respect and hope. Ask the moth
ers of the 4O,767 babies who died n
Chile alone n a single year less than
one-year-old because of alcoholism
and anti-hygiene conditions"
Miss Smith stresses the need for
more women workers in Latin Ameri-
ca. She says: There are actually
working in South America, Central
America and Mexico, 354 married wo-
men missionaries, and 234 single wo-
men, including all America. British
and international societies of every
denomination. OF these 241 married
women and Isl single women repre-
sent the American church. There is q
great work for married women to dc
| Miss Smith believes that the foun-
dation of real missionary work among
the women of Latin America is in ed
ucation, and especially the training Of
native workers.

MEAT CAUSE OF
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take Salts TO Flush Kidneys IL Bladder
Hurts or Bladder Bothers.

If you must have your meat every
day, eat it, but flush your kidneys with
salts occasionally, says a noted all
thority who tells us that meat forms
uric acid which almost paralyzes the
kidneys in their efforts to expel 1t
from the blood They become slug
gish and weaken, then you suffer with
dull misery, in the kidney region
sharp pains in the back or sick head
ache, dizziness, your stomach sours,
tongue is coated and when the weather
is bad you have rheumatic twingea.
The urine gets cloudy, full of sedi-
ment, the channels often get sore and
irritated, obliging you to seek relief
two or three times during the night
To neutralize these irritating acids
to cleanse the kidneys and flush off
the body's urinous waste, get TO ir
ounces of Jad Salts from any pharma-
cy here; take tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for &
few days and your kidneys will then
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia and has
been used for generations to flush and
stimulate sluggish kidneys; also 20
neutralize the acids in urine, so it NJ
longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.

juice FROM TALLULAH
IS NOW ON The JOB

Atlanta Oct. 25.-An invisible yet
very present mountain torrent rolled
and roared and swirled through the
main streets of Atlanta yesterday, is
outward form changed, but its mighty
power still intact Every street car
that ran, every Office building eleva-
tor, every street light, every wheel IL
many of the biggest factories, was
moved and turned by the waters
rushing through the turbines miles
away in the North Georgia mountains
at Tallulah Falls.
The modern miracle was accom-
plished without any special ceremony,
and few people knew that the new
power had been turned on, so smooth
was the change. But the actual de-
livery of more than 10000 horsepower
for commercial purposes in this terri
tory has commenced.
It is believed that the event will
usher in an electrical era Of hitherto
unknown prosperity in Georgia.

mess rests upon a Christian founda-
ton, must, if he be true to his profes-
sion. endeavor to identify himself with
the church's educational enterprises
in the Orient"
Western civilization" says Prof.
Theat again, lin it's richest develop
ment is Christian civilization. The
successful solution of Chinas prob
lem will require men with knowledge
and spirit to grapple with difficult
political and economic questions. Chi
ma may easily take upon herself We
neer of western civilization but it will
take men with a realization of the
need of Christian civilization to lead
China out into worthy national des-
tiny. China's past educational system
has not produced such men. For cen
turtles the best brains of the nation
toiled laboriously through long years
of study, and through somewhat gro
tesque, if searching, examinations t.
win political place and power. But
Chinese officials, though highly edu-
Gated, have been VIGOROUSLY corrupt
This condition is the inevitable result
of divorce between mental and moral
training. The mere recasting of Chi
mas educational system into west
ern mould will not in itself produce
the type of leadership the Orient
needs"

PARKS IN THE SMALL CITY
Possibly Best Way to Obtain and
Keep Them in Order Is by
Commission.

The immediate question is how far
the park problem of the small city
can be solved by the formation of a
park commission, and what powers
and functions should be trusted to it.
and what shall be the form of charac-
ter to be adopted, and how much can
be learned from what other cities
have done. The creation of a park
commission should be because the
people as a whole desire it, and this
desire can be stimulated until it takes
form, and it usually crystalizes about
few men who become the workers
to carry it out.
A park commission for a small city
should have the power, knowledge and
ability to select land for parks. and
to have the care and development of
them, and to employ men and teams
necessary. Also to purchase material
and make contracts. if they consider
