Painter, After Drinking -Four
Cups of Rat Poison, Finds Life

Life is very attractive, after all. to
Benson d. Glymph, of S39 Seaboard
Avenue.
After surviving four glasses Of rat
poison, which he drank Monday with
suicidal intent, and a broken neck
which the physicians a number of
years ago were certain spelled his
death, Glymph has decided that his
time to die has not yet arrived.
Though 1 was determined TO end
my existence, l tell you it filled me
with Joy when the doctors told me
last night that / was going to get

reporter, who called on him Tuesday
morning at the Grady Hospital.
Glymph was still in great pain from
his attempt at self destruction, but
he was beaming and happy, never
theless. His glimpse at the portals
ushering mortals from this life was
sufficient. He was content to stay a
while longer
las far as any wrong doing is con-
cerned, my conscience is as clear as
anyone's," he continued. Il was in
fit Of dependency, that was all I
had been worrying because l had to
give up my business where / was
established as a scenic painter and
move to Atlanta so that my wife
could take care of her folks. So I
decided to quit this world and quit
it in a hurry.
Glymph was born at Abbeville, s.
c., 81 years ago, but has spent most
of his life in Georgia. A scenic paint
er and decorator by trade, he has
painted drop curtains and other dec
orations all over the South. Fifteen
years ago, while doing some painting
at Washington, Ga, the scaffolding
Glymph was standing on broke. and
he was hurled to the ground, As feet

after a nine-week stay in the hos
pital Glymph was up and at work
again.

MONEY BILL ROW
HOTLY DENIED
BY WILSON
Bryan Did Not Interfere in Franz

Angered by Report.

WASHINGTON. June 18.-"There
Is absolutely no disagreement among
any Of the men concerned in franz
ing the currency bill The report
that Secretary of State Bryan inter
tered in the framing Of the measure
Is without a shred of truth"
This emphatic statement was made
by President Wilson to-day in an
swer to a query concerning rumors Of
disagreement among the men who
have drafted the bill, which is to be
introduced in the House within the
next few days.
Desiring to spike the report of dis
agreements among his aides, the
President left his office to-day and
spoke to a number of newspaper men
in Secretary Tumultys office. The
President seemed much wrought up
over the report, and said that he did
not see how it could have gained cir
CulatiOn.
The Chief Executive added that
currency matters have been entirely
completed and that the only hitch in
the program is a delay of a few days
to give Republican members of the
House Currency Committee time to
study the bill and digest its details.

and proftabeness of given crop, such as the
soil, seed culture, management and climate.
Undoubtedly the most important line of inves-
tigation of the Agronomy Division is the study
OF soils The restoration and maintenance of
soil fertility is of the most important prob
lens of the present time, and is recognized
by our best informed men.
Recently the acquisition by the Station of
small farms in different parts of the state, repre-
senting different soil types in each case, offers
great opportunities to learn about the
necessary treatment to bring these lands up to
productivity and to maintain high level of
productiveness. This work will mean much to
those sections of the state where the results
secured the Station farm do not apply be-
cause of the difference in type of land.
In crop work the Division is attempting by
variety tests to find the best varieties of grains
The Bourbon news., 1913-09-16

from the standpoint of economy of production,
and the Division has very credtable line of
implements which it tests for different purposes.
In the College of Agriculture the Division of
Agronomy gives instruction in soil physics, soil
fertility, crops, plant breeding, farm mechanics
and farm management. For the teaching of
these subjects a splendidly equipped soil physics
and soil fertility laboratory is provided and
we'll lighted and we'll equipped crop and seed

The State Pure Food and Drug work is To-
Gated at the Experiment Station and is thus
given the benefit of all of the elaborate scen-
tifc corps and equipment which the Federal
Government maintains at the Station. This
Department of the Station analyzed 5000
samples of foods and drugs in 1912, and handled
$3.50 cases of adulteraton or misbrandng. These
samples were analyzed by both chemists and
bacteriologist, and covered wide range of food
and drug samples Among the samples anayzed
were artificial egg and fruit preparations used by

only salt, charcoal, and ordinary copperas. An
investigation among pop factories found some of
them to be purchasing used crown corks from the
dumps, and using them again on the bottles of pop
with little washing In some instances they
found pops being made out of any kind of water,
and in the majority of instances they found the
pops containing little fruit.
This Department inspects the bakeries, gro
Gerry stores, slaughterhouses and dairies. The
bakers have joined behind the work of inspection
probably more than any other class of the trade,
and the result of this work has accumulated
into experimental bakery to help in solving
bakers problems, and to help them estimate the
value of various ingredients used in the prod
ucts. The field inspectors have collected milk
from most of the dairies, and the bacteriologist
has examined it for contamination. This inspec-
ton not only includes finding fault with the
sample obtained from the market, but the follow
ing up and taking of samples from the various
points in the daryman's process, and showing
just where the Objectionable bacteria come into
the milk, and how to correct it.
The Department regards the municipal abat-
toir the best remedy for the local meat situa-
ton. 1t has made a study of the municipal
abattoir system both in this country and abroad.
and has drawn plans for any city or town want
ing such advice.
One important feature of the work has been
sanitary conditions in the preparation and sale of
food, and the task of changing conditions among
the numberess ice cream makers, pop factories.
retail grocery stores, meat markets. poultry
killing establishments, slaughterhouses, and so
on, has been a very difficult one. This Depart
ment of the Station states that the sanitary side
of the food supply is one in which the trade, the
consumers, and the local city and county Of
fcials must cooperate if substantial results
established and maintained.
The Kentucky Pure Food work has accom-
plshed the putting of labels showing adultera-
tion or substitution upon large number of food
products. These labels have been put on after
many fights for the benefit of consumers. Con-
sumers tell whether a drug contains
a habit-forming poisonous ingredient, or
whether the foods contain an inferior substitute
or a preservative, by reading the labels.

EYES THAT SoulNT.
Hasmisss In 6ahyhood. but a Serious
Matter Later On.

Hasmisss In 6ahyhood. but a Serious
Matter Later On.
The eyes are meant to look both
in the same direction and thus to
help each other to see, as the feet
help each other to walk or run.
When they do not do so there is a
squint or u ''cast" in one or both
eyes, or, to use the medical term,
''strabismus." Not only disfgure-
ment, but also impaired vision, re-
suits.
Little babies squint more or less
during the first few months Of life.
! That is not a serious matter, al
though it often frightens a young
and inexperienced mother. 1t is
generally caused by a slight dis
turbance of the digestion and pass
es when that is corrected. But a
squint that appears later, when the
child is beginning to develop vision
by the constant use of the eye
muscles, must not be neglected. If
it is the unfortunate condition will
probably last through life.
The eyes should work absolutely
in unison, just as two horses har-
messed to a cart ought to pull to-
gether. When they do not focus
ON the same point at the same time
the crooked eye soon abandons the
struggle and leaves the straight eye
to do all the work. That is unfair
to the good eye and fatal to the
other, for an eye that is not used
grows gradually blind from lack of
exercise. Even if the squint is so
slight that the child makes an un-
conscious effort to force the affect
ed eye to its task he is sure to suffer
the distressing ache of eye strain.
When a young child has strabis-
mus take him at once to a trust
worthy oculist, in order that he may
have the glasses that his condition
demands. And, when he has been
fitted with glasses that pull the
crooked eye into line with the
straight eye and make it do its work
properly, see that he wears them
every waking minute, except when
he washes his face.
If the squirting eye has already
got the habit of shirking it may
have to be trained by exercises.
The good eye must be shut at in
tervals, SO that the other will have
to do all the work, but the oculist
in charge of the case must decide
the precise character and frequency
of the treatment.-Youth's Com
panion.
