The darkest days of husband and wife
are when they come to look forward to
a childless and lonely old age.
Many wife has found herself inca

arrangement of the feminine system,

In many homes once childless there
are now children because of the fact
that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable

He Lives On a Diet ;
All His Very Own.

He strolled into the Piedmont Head
on he looked like the ancient Diplodicus-
only one ever found. He approached the
desk like a battleship ramming a water
logged wind-jammer. In a gentle voice,
plainly audible but a few blocks down
Peachtree, he inquired for accommoda-
tons.
Recognizing in this gentle child of ma
ture T. j. Williams, the biggest man
that travels the South" the clerks marked
the register with his usual room number,
Williams uses an extra sized bed, has
his meals served in sections, not courses,
drinks ten glasses of water per meal and
has the usual line Of "health hints" none
of which fit the theories of DR. Woods
Hutchinson.

Plenty Jobs Easier Than
Spelling Gossypium.

They tell this on an Atlanta policeman:
A horse had died, as horses sometimes
do, and this cop found the body on Cos
sypium street.
The policeman so informed the ser
geant
IAN right; make out a report Of 1t and
turn it in," said the sergeant
A minute later the policeman re-en-
tered, signs of mental struggle written
on his face.
Say, sergeant, how do you spell Cos
sypium?" he inquired.
The sergeant looked at him blankly for
moment. and then announced, Jaw, go
on. man, don't you see I'm busy"
The policeman went out again, and re-
turned with signs of mental struggle much
palmer.
I'm going out a minute, sergeant" he
said.
Where to?"
Pm just going out to move that horse
around on Bowen street"

Never Mind What
The Fat Man Did.

A gentleman, whose name for the pur-
poses Of this story, will be Guy DeVere,
sat in Piedmont avenue car yesterday.
At rough guess you would not have
picked his name as DeVere. 1t wasn't, as
a matter of fact, and so you would not
have guessed wrong. He was fat; oh,
very fat, and he filled beyond the point of
comfort the car seat, crowd1ng into the
wall small boy who sat with him
Two girls entered and stood for mo-
ment looking vainly for G. seat. The car
was crowded.
Sonny, get up and give the lady with
the big hat your seat" urged the stout
person in an audible whisper Amt you
got no manners?"
Jaw, come off, what's the matter with
you" retorted the boy "Ain't you got
none yourself? Why don't you get up and
let both Of 'em sit down"

All Opera Sounds

looking to that end, the which he pro-
poses to push vigorously and sincerely
so long as life remains within it.
He believes that the present state
constitution-written in 1877, and not
long after Observation-Disclosures long
outlived its usefulness. and that the
way to replace it is to replace it In its
entirety with a new and up-to-the-
minute constitution, to be fashioned by
Georgia's wisest and most patriotic cit
liens.
He thinks this much safer and
saner way to proceed than by shreds
and patches, as has been the custom of
late years.
For some reason or other, however
Mr.. Edmondson's proposition does not
seem to have caught on like wild fire.
exactly!
few newspapers have applauded
the idea, more or less cautiously and in
a reserved sort of way, a few more
have elected neither to view with alarm
nor point with pride, while several have
rejected the proposal fatty, and will
have none of it!
The general opinion seems to be that
the state really ought to have a new
constitution-or, at least, could use one
in its business-but the inclination to
begin the tinkering is not rampant
Not few think it better to bear the
ills we have than fly to those we know
not of-in short, they are scared Of the
proposition, and approach ii gingerly
and with circumspection.
In these circumstances, therefore, the
prediction seems warranted nowadays
that the incoming legislature will not
start the new constitution machinery
going so fast that it can not be stopped
with ease when the stopping time comes
which it bids fair to do pretty soon
after the bill is introduced.
OF course, conditions may be diff
ferent when the legislature gets to-
gether, and the proposition may have
much smoother sailing than now seems
likely.
The probabilities. however, are all,
and very much. the other way

cases of larceny of interstate and inter-

chandise.
The bill in question has already been
adopted by the lower house of congress

added in the senate.
The amendment is to the effect that
the jurisdiction of, the Federal court in
the prosecution of these cases of lar
ceny shall not interfere with the process

This means that when a defendant

Thomas f. Watson. the red headed
person of McDuffie, is enjoying himself
immensely nowadays.
He seems to realize that since he
jumped the Wilson game in the late
presidential election-which many Of
his friends think he should not have
done, of course-a lot of folks have re-
solved to cast him out again into the
rain, and the sleet, and the snow.
He doesn't seem to mind. however,
indeed, he appears rather to like ii.
Maybe he figures that he can get
back into the Democratic camp when
ever the spirit moves him, anyway-hs
always has, at least!
Mr.. Watson has assumed the attitude
of more or less cynical critic, deter
mined to be good natured, if cutting
and the way he undertakes to get I'M
der the skin of his Democratic fellow
citizens is highly entertaining, il not
altogether convincing.
He doesn't incline to care whether
the Democratic school keeps or not
but he rather thinks it will not.
