Due TO Excess Of starchy Food, Fed
eral Expert Says.
Savannah, Ga.-Dr. Joseph Goldberg
er, In charge Of pellagra research
work for the public health service, an
nounced that experiments conducted at
the Georgia and Mississippi state sani-
tariums have confirmed the theory that
pellagra is caused BY eating too much
,starchy food. II.
Il According to DR.. Goldberger, expert
nents have proved the theory conclu-
sively. He added that It had been de-
termined that the disease was not con-
stagious.
while pellagra is more prevalent In
the south than in the north, there Is
just as much possibility Of the re-
verse;" said Dr.. Goldberger, except
for the fact that northern people eat
more meat and other nonstarch foods
than do the people Of the south"

The smoking of mar1huana cigarettes

The story of poor Carlotta," who for
the last fifty years has been insane. her
home being in France, is well known
to the world. In Mexico the belief that
her mind was dethroned by brew OF
marihuana weed given to her by some
enemy Of her husband, the Emperor
Maximilian. Is general. It is known
that the poison acts quickly and most
effectively In the form OF tea. The
favorite method OF using the weed,
however, is to crush the leaves and roll
the particles into cigarettes.
Mexicans who are addicted TO the
use Of the drug say that one cigarette
places them tn the seventh heaven.
They seem to rise far above worldly
things. It brings to them sense Of
pleasure and delight that Is incompara-

The period of temporary insanity
lasts for several hours and Is followed
by a deep sleep which often lasts for
forty eight hours. He awakes with no
knowledge OF what has transpired
while the full effects Of the drug were

of constant indulgence in the habit to
bring permanent insanity.

Obituary-GeOrge Abner Dyer

1t is not every day that we meet a
real man, one who puts honor and
virtue above every thing else. There
is nothing go inspiring as Christian
life. 1t is Gods best gift to the
world and fortunate, indeed, is the
one who can enjoy the friendship and
companionship of man who walks
humbly before God and circumspectlv
with men. When the light of life
goes out in such one, we all feel
that we have suffered a district and
irreparable loss.
George Abner Dyer son of Abner
and Rebecca (Walker) Dyer, was
born in North Lancaster, March 30,
1859. For 40 years he dwelt upon a
farm in the town of his birth, living
the life of the ordinary farmer; con-
tributing to the social life of his
community the wealth of righteous
character, which is the noblest con-
tribution any man can hope to make.
His one aim was that he might go
live as to enjoy the respect and
esteem of his fellowmen, and how
we'll he succeeded in doing this has
been evident from the time he be-
came seriously i'll until his death, for
it was a common remark shat Geo.
DYER was a man whom to know was
to love.
He married, Sept. 20, 1882, Miss
Louisa Eicb, of Ellenboro, and to
them was porn one daughter, Elva,
who with her mother, survives him.
The home life was beautiful, typify
ing what real Christian home may
be. Here love reigned supreme and
God and sacred things were highly
and reYerently respected. Twenty :
six years ago he gave his he 2rt to
| God and never was a man more faith
full to his Christian covenant than he.
He united with the Primitive Metho-
cist church, of which he remained a
faithful member until his removal
to the city in 1899, when he began
attending the Congregational church
OF which he became a member in
1903. His loyalty here. soon gave
him prominent place in the
church's life and for considerable
