Prohibition in Kansas.

Attorney General Dawson, of Kansas,
in enumerating the good that has re-
suited from prohibition in that State,
sets out the good things briefly as fol-
lows:
There are SIG, 900 children in the pub
lie schools in Kansas who never saw an
open saloon in that State.
More than half of the county jails are
empty.
Sixty-five out of the los counties OF
the State have no inmates OF the State

Many counties have not had jury try

Eighty-seven counties have no in

Fifty.four counties have no feeble

Now Let Business Go On.
(EditoriaI in New York Herald \

editorial in New York Herald.)
This is not day of triumph; it is a
day OF dedication" we're the words of
Woodrow Wilson upon assuming the
Presidency on March 4.
1t might be said that yesterday was
the day OF triumph, when Mr.. Wilson
placed his signature upon the tariff bills,
the act marked the accomplishment of
the prime pledge upon which the Demo
cratic party sought and was entrusted
with power IL has kept the faith.
Probably no single provision of any
tariff bill ever suited all parts of the
country, but the Underwood bill was
drafted unquestionably by men who
sought to insure what they believe to be
the greatest good for the greatest num-
ber This in itself is refreshing fea-
ture of the bill, and may be taken as a
hopeful sign of the times.
1t is significant, too, that men who
persistently expressed belief that disas-
ter lurked in the Underwood schedules
with the accomplishment of his chief
measure of Democratic doctrine are
changing their tune. Already the skies
are clearing for them.

Postal Rates in 1880.

According to table of the posloffices
in the United States, as they were Oct.
l, 1880, the whole number of offices in
the U. S. was S,6l0. The rates of post
age established by Congress in 1925 were:

80 miles, 6 cents; over 30 miles and not
exceeding 80 miles, 10 cents; over so and

charged double these rates; of three
pieces, triple and four pieces quadruple
these rates. For newspapers the rate
was cent for 100 miles and l-2 cents

II may not be exactly correct to Say
that Chairman Thomas A. Combs is

HEALTHY LIVER
MAKES BEAUTY
Famous Actress Finds that a Healthy
Liver is Necessary to Good Looks
and YOuthfulnesS.

One of the best known women OF
the American stage is writing series
of articles on the preservation Of
beauty. She attaches great import
ance to keeping the liver active at al
times, and she is right. Neither good
looks nor happiness will stay long
with any man or woman who let's the
liver get lazy and sluggish
1t is not always safe to take Gallo
mel, the cd liver remedy. Doctors
agree that it is a very uncertain drug
But the Howell-Prather Pharmacy has
a remedy for sale that they guarantee
to take the place of calomel, abso-
lutely, and still be harm ess causing
no restriction of habit or diet. This
remedy is Dodson's Liver-Tone.
Dodson's Liver-Tone is a pleasant
tasting vegetable liquid, but it starts
the liver gently and surely and re-
lieves constipation and biliousness
SO promptly that 1t has become a de-
pendable remedy in thousands Of
homes in the United States. There
are scores Of families in this vicinity
who will not be without it in the
house and who would not think OF
starting on a trip without bottle of
it.
The Howell-Prather Pharmacy has
sold so much Dodson's Liver-Tone
that they are convinced of its merit
and will give any person his so cents
back, who buys bottle and does not
find that it takes the pace Of calomel
to perfection.

HUTCHENS WILL
GET DISTRICT
ATTORNEYSHIP
SO THINK The POLITICIANS
Underwood Man Is Slated
For Position

Atlanta, Feb. 24-That Hon. G. r.
Hutchens of Rome, who was the Os>
car Underwood manager in the Georgia
campaign for the presidential delega-
ton at Baltimore, will be the next dis
trict attorney for the Northern district
of Georgia, is now the emphatic state
ment of his friends. Upon just what
they base their emphatic and positive
assertion is not known; but it is fact
that they are predicting it with almost
equal certainty with which they woulG
predict the dawn of tomorrow.
1t is unquestionably an interesting
situation in which the manager of the
chief opponent of President-elect VII
son, at least in this section of the
country, seems likely to be appointed
to one of the most important offices in
the state.
And yet stranger things have hap
pened The world has already come
from those surrounding the President
elect, following his sweeping victory il
the Georgia election in November that
he did not propose to make distinction
between Democrats; that the Under
wood men would stand before him on
the same basis as the Wilson men, the
question of fitness being the chief fac
tor in determining the appointment.
Friends of Mr. Hutchins have ac-
cepted the statement as coming exca-
thedra, and with him they are going TO
test the matter out Knowing his
fitness for the place, they are going to
ascertain what there is of substance III
that report about no discrimination

Underwood.

The meeting today in Cordele is ex-
pected to be a critical one, as the pre-
liability of that teams joining the

in their efforts to secure a permanent

Cordele fans viii decide today to enter
the league and make the necessar.
steps toward that end.
The following dispatch sent out from
Cordele to the state papers Sunday

1851, 741.65.
The commission has made special
study of this situation, according to a
report issued to-day, and reaches the
conclusion that this increase in ex-
penses is largely due to Increased
wages paid to labor and increase in the
