TOBACCO AND LIQUOR.

The report of the United States CummiSs toner of Internal Revenue nllSt be disappointin. to those Nhr ar" M;ging a Wa aeaInst drink and the use ur [ '- barcn. Tn" report covers th" first Sr,*n months of the fiscal year which began July 1. 1912.
 The report shows that in tl" time named $500. 100000 cigar cites had been consumed. 2,25O,- 0OO.00O more than in the same period last year, and that i2.000,- 900 pounds of chewing and SmOk- ing tobacco in excess of last year had been used. In the seven months 39.SGi.OOO barrels of beer were consumed, an increase of I.800.O00 barrels.
 The figures need not be read with miSgivin2s, despite the fact that they prove that the people of this country are consuming :l""e cigarettes. tobacco and beer. But it must be remembered that there are more people in the na- tion than there were seven months ago. It is also possible that more tobacco and liquor are heinz exported.
 But even with these comfort ln" reflections the figures are somewhat startling. The statis- ti(s emphasize the fact that if !;'r use of liquor and obacco is tu be decreased. the campaign of education Imust be continued. particularly in the homes.

information makes effective com batting of infant mortality almost
 impossible.
 That, in brief, is the substance of the first monograph issued by Miss Julia Clifford Lathrop, the head of the newly formed "chil- dren's bureau" of the federal government. The bald facts re- cite a tale of which any civilized country should be ashamed and should constitute a stimulus to the quick correction of the evils which prevent the saving of mil lions of young lives and of the consdrvatinn of tn" nations best asset.

Official reports to the federal government show that the inc0r- ,pOratiOns of the nation had net earnings last year of 5000, ,o00,- 900, or $50 for every man, Wo- man and child in the country.
 When it is remembered that i'm dividuals do larger share of the business, in the aggregate, than the incorporated companies, it is easy to understand why the crop of pessinists is almost a total failure.

Too many people are too
willing to let the hall of the

the idea of appropriate fur
nishings for it receives but
scant attention which is
wrong of course since of all
places the hall should ex-
tend a warm and courteous
welcome.
Our new stocks reveal a
wealth of pleasing surprises

The Duchess always has been
among the first to adopt a new fad

daughter has so recently recovered
from an attack of appendicitis
that her flying aroused attention.
With the celebrated mother and
daughter as aviators, the season will

This nom de plume wells the identity
of the Duchess of Sutherland, who IS
very anxious that Sir Herbert Tree

WOMAN OLDER
THAN ATLANTA
YET IN SCHOOL
Mrs. Emily Bandy, "a, Who Rode
Over Present Site Of City, Is
Student in Tennessee.

JOHNSON CITY, TENN, June Il.
One of the most interesting students
who has entered for the summer term
at the East Tennessee State Normal
School is Mrs Emily A. Bandy. of
Polk County. Mrs Bandy was born
February rs, 1910. ana is in her sew
enty- fourth year. She is enjoying the
best of health and is very active and
buoyant and one of the most cheerful
and enthusiastic students enrolled.
Mrs. Bandy's maiden name was
Mangum. She was born at what is
now East Point, near Atlanta, and at
the time of her birth the building of
Atlanta had not begun. She has often
ridden along the roads over the pres
ent site of that hourishing city.
Lived in White Hall House.
For one year she lived in the large,
long white house built by Carna Hum
phreys and which was locally known
a. the white Hail House" This gave
the name of Whitehall Street, one OF
the leading thoroughfares of Atlanta.
Mrs. Bandy began teaching in 1854
near GAINESVILLE, Ga, and taught one
year in the first building OF what is
now Gordon Institute. BY many she
is known as the Mother of Gordon
Institute" After teaching three years
near Atlanta she HldITleu. again III
1870 she taught one term near Dalton.
From 1875 to 1873, inclusive, she
taught in Fannin County, Georgia.
She was not engaged in school work
from 1878 to 1884. In the latter year
she began teaching in Fannin County,
Georgia, and has worked continu-
ously ever since in Fannin County
and in Polk County, Tennessee,
teaching in the latter county at Blue
Ridge, Isabella and Copperhill.
Presence an Inspiration.
The presence of the lively, cheerful,
buoyant and learning old woman is
an Inspiration to the other $50 young
er teachers registered in the Normal
School. Mrs. Bandy is probably the
oldest person now attending school
in the United States and the Normal
School students feel highly honored
by her presence.

LONDON. June 14.-Whatever may
be said against the draped gown, it is
certain that clever dressmakers can
make a rather stout middle-aged
woman look not only presentable. but
charming.
Soft and subtle fabrics, such as
charmeuse, cachemire de sole, satin
or even some Of the seasons fine
woolens silky crepes and crepons, are
made TO serve for gowns in which the
apparent swathing Of the frame gives
distinction to every fold.
A particularly pretty presentation
gown was worn at a court held dur
ing the week by Miss Remfry Brooks
a young and pretty debutante Soft
ivory satin was the material chosen.
The skirt was draped so as to show
the petticoat of ninon yelled in
fiouncas of fine shadow lace, which
also formed the draperies Of the
bodice.
