SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY.
a Vegetable Element That Is Rapidly
Doing Away With the Use of
CoJor,ol


The Milhous Drug Company is one
of the first progressive concerns to
offer for sale the new system of medi-
cine that is fast supplanting the use
of old-fashioned calomel as a liver
medicine.
Nearly everyone knows how easily
the liver becomes sluggish in this
climate and how this sluggishness
effects not only the other physical
organs but the mind as we'll.
The signal towers of this dread
condition, which some call malaria
are coated tongue, lack of energy,
dull eyes, constipation, sallow com
pexion.
Taken with regularity this proven
scientific liquid vegetable medicine in
the form of CARSWELL'S LIVER
AID will prevent or promptly relieve
all liver troubles.

WOMAN OF THE SOUTH.
(By Geo. H. Buchanan)

(By Geo. H. Buchanan).
1t takes 500 men to make an en-.
campment while one woman car
make home. 1t takes 20 men tt
make court of justice, while one
woman can make a citadel of honor
Men reverence women as the glory
of humanity.
Men regard woman as being the
true sanctuary to virtue and the
Judge of perfect qualities of heard
and soul. The one thing in this world
that never fails--that is, woman's
love. The only peak that rises above
every hilltop is the pinnacle of wo-
mans love. 1t is woman's love the
one light that shines forever. Wo-
mans love will forgive the acts of
hatred and the most cruel injuries. II
is woman's love that subdues the
earth and has wrought miracles of
art. Woman's love has made music
all the way from the cradle to the
grave. Woman's love is greater than
power, sweeter than life and strong
er than death. The world cannot
know what great honor can be be-
slowed on the human family, only by
the teaching of gentle woman, which
has left an impress on the hearts of
men and the history of nations. The
earth was rich but heaven was richer
by the true virtues of sanity woman.
Affiiction and patience was a heritage
that smiled away the tears of others
who had stood under the burden of
life's uneven journey. She carries
sunshine where'er she goes. If the
sunbeams could be gathered in
wreaths as emblems it would be the
greatest offering ever laid on any
back.
The most lasting and the sweetest
glfts are from the hands of gentle
| woman. Full of love and devotion
that knows no bounds. Oh, how well
did those dear woman adapt Them
selves to the changes of a peaceful
fireside to the extreme of a cruel
war. How quickly they were the
chosen of Gods people. When she
began the lesson to the young men
OF the country who were to make the
proud Confederate soldier; when she
gave the little pocket Bible and gave
those sweet and tender words of low
ing advice-Oh, how she fingered on
those last words and ties that heaven
only could unite. Oh, saddened emo
tions, but with dauntless courage.
when she uttered these burning
words: "Take this shield for your
oe1ense. Take this sword for our de
tense and bring it back with honor or
be borne back upon it, How thick
and fast came the bitter changes. But
with no fault, no loss of COURAGE.
While she prayed she dried the tear
OF the fallen hero and bathed his
cheek with her loving care.
The son and the father already at
the front. Maybe the idol of the
household already borne to it's last
resting place. In the lone watch of
5he nlght she keeps vigil over what is
left to her care and keeping. Whiie
the father and perhaps the only bow
Is standing out on some lonely hill or
shadowed vale doing picket duty
with the various changes she whiles
away the time. But, all in all, hers
are but grief and sorrow. YaiGlsbe 81!

Charging that the editorial columns
of the Chicago newspapers influence
the boss politicians who control leg
islators in SpringfieId,~ Lieut.. Gov.
Barratt O'Hara addressed the wom-
ems legislative congress last night on
the method to pursue to obtain con-
stitutional convention, if they de-
sired it. -. '
Almost two-thirds of the legis-
tors are controlled by boss politi-
cians," he declared "These politi-
clans change their views according
to the editorials in the Chicago news
papers.
eff the women wish to help in get
ting constitutional convention
would suggest that they appoint COM
mittees and send committee A to see
the managing editor and publisher of
every Chicago newspaper on Monday,
committee B on Tuesday and COM
mittee C on Wednesday. In this way
they will mold the opinion of the men
who control many legislators"
Endorsements of the unit system of
vocational training, state teachers

so desired; extension of school age

years were made yesterday by the
congress. Eugenics, which has been
discussed informally Thursday after
noon, came up formally before the
Friday morning session and discus

Prof. w. c. Bagley of Urbana, IL,
spoke in favor of vocational training
in connection with the general school
education. Ex-Sup't Cooley argued
in favor of dual system of voca-
tional training, necessitating sep

a superintendent, two employers and
two employees. He also advocated

VIM. L. Bodine, sup't of compul-
sorry education, believed that children
should be forced to remain in school
until they are 16 years old and con-
tended that the wage for which boys
and girls between IA and 16 work is
such a meager one that it is criminal
that they should forfeit their educa-
ton. He declared that the greater
percentage Of children working be-
tween these ages have never gone
further than the eighth grade and
most of them never reached the sixth.
Judge Gemmill, whose subject was
eugenics, depressed to say that he
wished the women assembled could
hear the other side of the story of
compulsory education, the pleading
of widowed mothers who beg that
their children may be permitted to
stop school and work to help them
with the burden the mother isn't able
to carry alone.
On the subject of eugenics Judge
Gemmill read proposed measure he
had drafted following the laws al
ready in force in six states making it
a crime Ior anyone aHncCed> WIN a
venereal disease to marry.
There was considerable discussion
upon this subject for and against.
Physician delegates told in plain
terms the amount Of such disease
that is prevalent in Chicago and the
evils that follow marriage between
people so diseased.
Miss Caroline Grimsby of the court
of domestic relations advocated adj
vancing the age of consent for girls
to Is years instead of 16, as it now is.
Many of the delegates who declar-
ed they were mothers. of sons who
should be protected insisted that the
age limit should be made THE same
for boys as for girls. A number of
delegates did not believe there
should be any age of consent.

A FINE LETTER FROM TEXAS.

Dear Sir: Received the sample
copy Of your paper, The Jeffersonian.
l enclose N. Y. exchange in the sum
of one dollar, to apply as subscrip-
ton to The eJtfers0nian. I have no
doubt that most of the patriotic peo-
pie Of our country and especially
those whose ancestors suffered I'M
der Romish rule in foreign countries
rejoice at the fight your paper is
waging against the Roman Catholic
hierarchy. The country is waking
up, and it is only question of time
when we will have an immigration
law to prevent America being made
Catholic. The taxation of all church
property. The inspection Of con-
vents and sectarian hospitals, and
other reforms that will tend to
strengthen the foundations of our
great republic. Remaining with best
wishes to you and your paper.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
ISN'T THIS A FINE WAY 10 TELL
TF;l1 SHEEP FROM THE
GOATS?

Bear Sir: Before voting in the
forthcoming elections, I desire to as
certain the religious affiliations of
the various candidates who are run
ming for Office, in the State Of Ala
bama, 'for by the Heaven that bends
above US, by the God we both ADORE"
I am determined to never in the fu-
ture, knowingly, cast my vote, in sup
port of any man or set Of men, who
are, in way, connected with, are
favorable to, or who are representa-
tive of the Roman Catholic Hierar-
chy, therefore, | am writing you
with the assurance, that you are in a
position to either advise me concern
ing the plan that hereafter propose,
or suggest one whereby [ can sep
arate the sheep from the goats, the
Protestants from the Catholics, the
patriots from the renegadcs, among
the contestants now in the political
arena.
My plan is as follows: Let every
patriotic publishing house in the
country, have printed and advertised
for circulation, among their respec-
tive subscribers, printed petitions,
fOrcibly worded by some competent
writer on the subject of the dangers
confronting our Public Schools and
other free institutions, by the insi-
dious attacks of the Roman Catholic
political machine. Impress upon the
men on the firing line, the import
ance of an united effort on their
part, if they are to ever bring the
politicians Of this country to a sense
Of their duty as officers and citizens
of q once free United States, as
founded on the principles of Thomas
eff ers0n. Persuade some one sub
scriber in every community to pur-
chase some of these printed petitions,
for the purpose of having them
signed by AS many voters as posi-
BILE, and sent to the different candi-
dates seeking public Office in his
State. I have no doubt but that
petitions, written and signed by each
individual or community Of voters,
would have far more influence than
the one proposed by me, but I be-
lieve there are a great many people
who are willing to help in this good
work of reform, but who do not feel
that they have the time to write out
petitions, but would read and sign
such, were they requested to do so.
Yours truly,
Alabama. PROTESTANT.

Dear Sir: The following appeared
in The Atlanta Constitution, Feb.
18th, as utteranco Of Gov. John NJ.
Slaton, at the Georgia Historical
banquet in Savannah, Ca, Feb 18TH
Said in part:
THAT the convict camps in Geor-
gia were not half as had as they
were painted, and that harsh methods
and stern men are necessary in the
treatment Of men who murder, as
Gault, and steal In my opinion the
prisoners are burden on the tax
payers Of the State, and my idea is
to make this burden as light as pos
sible. To do this, is best to work
them on the roads. Sunday School
methods and Sunday School men do
not know how to handle convicts"
Has he read the cruel methods
employed by those men who must be
fashioned after Slaton: at least at
heart. With not enough manhood
in his make up to treat others rs he
would be treated. Because a man
may be q convict does not necessarily
follow that he is deprayed, and void
Of all feeling.
Again he would pose as an econo-
mic sire; tighten the burdens Of tax
payers by building good roads for
the same ''taX payers" to glide over
in their automobiles. Understand,
we are plain people and realize the
vast good in good roads.
His criticism at that banquet was
unjust to those noble men who are
prosecuting this Investigation with
one end in view, "Alleviation of cruel
treatment from already suffering
mankind, our fellow men"
These same people can again cause
our Governor to see himself as we
plain people see him, and then by
investigating the conditions at and
around the State sanatorium, the
proper investigation here will dis
close to the tax payers of Georgia,
that economies has not been his
study. Let them come in and see
for themselves in human treatment;
eyes have not seen, nor ears heard,
until you expose this. 1t is beyond
all common reason and comprehen-
sion. If he wants to display ecOnO-
mic ability and tighten the burden
of tax payers go in there with your
earnest efforts and liberate the more
than five hundred men and women
who are held there at expense of
State for no other reason on earth
but to satisfy fanatical ideas Of in
diyiduals, and dishonorable Ordi-
naries, etc. Yet Gov. Slaton says,
Life is a sacred thing" what about
liberty? 'And the law should treat
one and all alike" Why does he not
adhere to the principle he breaches?
and see that at least Justice is done!
1t might we'll be said to him, learn
Of Gov ColQuitt Of Texas, and Capt.
John B. Riley, Supt. State Prison,
New York, in the handling of I'M
fortunates, then Georgia would have
a Governor she could be proud Of;
"a manly man." one who at least ad-
heres to Sunday School methods.
Yours truly,
PLAIN PEOPLE,"

OrattWi|l Be Taken Up From New
Angle in Parliament.

London, Feb. 27.-The draft of a
treaty establishing a peace commits
sion at The Hague, which was sub
mitted recently to Great Britain by
the United States, is regarded by the
British foreign Office as generally &C.
ceptable.
Sir Edward Grey, foreign secretary,
uniformed the house of commons, how.
ever, that the treaty would have to
be considered in conjunction with the
self-governing British dominions, as
certain special provisions in regard to
them would be required.
He promised to. ask the state de-
partment at Washington whether
there is any objection to the publca-
tion of the treaty here. If there is
no objection he will lay it on the ta-
BILE of the house.
The foreign secretary expressed the
hope that the notifications of the ar.
bitration convention between Great
Britain and the United States, renew.
ed on May 81 last year, would be ex.
changed shortly.

her citizens to leave the rebelli"n
torn country, European nations have
taken no such precautions, making
