DRUGS HAVE AN ATTRACTION
Remarkable How Many People viii
Take Almost Any Remedy That
Is Offered to Them.

A very interesting phase of human
psychology in its relation to the taking
Of drugs is illustrated by a series of
poisoning cases in the middle West. A
number of persons received free sam
pies" Of a remedy through the mails
and quite few of the recipients pro-
ceeded to take doses of it, some of
them with fatal results.
There are great many persons who
will take any remedy that is offered
or recommended to them. Free sam
pies Of drugs of which the recipients
know next to nothing are swallowed
in large quantities every day in this
country. 1t seems impossible, but it
is true.
When colored maid of all work
presents herself to doctor with a
large bottle of medicine to ask him
whether he thinks there is anything
the matter with her for which that
medicine might be good it seems a
joke. Such things have been known
to happen more than once. and there
are q large number of persons sup
posed to be far above the colored
maid in mentality, and still more in
common sense who present the same
attitude of mind toward free samples
of medicine that may come into their
hands. Could anything be more fool
ish?

His personal Devil"

We have been told about promi-

"got religion" as the phrase hath it.
Billy Sunday hadn't been there, and no
sawdust trail of heaven had been laid
out. But this fellow was convinced
Of sin, nevertheless.
After that, though he didn't become
a saint, he remembered bis CONVEX
sion. Whenever he fell from grace,
which was often, he said: THAT
wasn't lit was the devil" And
he got so used to laying his sins on
Satan that he got to be a pest So
one day neighbor asked him:
How does it come that whenever
you do anything wrong you blame it
on the DeVil?"

saved soul. "Ain't that what he's

BEAUTIFUL IN ALL SEASONS
Marvellous This Land of Ours, to
Those Endowed With the Proper
Sense Of Appreciation.

A marvellous sweet thing, when all
was said-this land! Changing its
sheen and texture, the feel of its air,
its very scent, from day to day. This
land with its billion offspring of flow
ers and flying folk; its majestic and
untiring march of seasons.
Spring and its wistfnl ecstasy OF
saplings. and its yearning, wild, wind
loosened heart; CLEAN and song, BIOS
som and cloud, and the swift white
rain; each upturned leaf so little and
so glad to flutter; each wood and field
so full of peeping things. Summer!
All summer, when on the solemn old
trees the long days shone and lin
gered, and the glory Of the meadows
and the murmur Of life and the scent
of flowers bewildered tranquility, till
surcharge Of warmth and beauty
brooded into dark passion, and broke.
And autumn, in mellow haze down on
already on the beeches, smears OF
crimson on the rowans, the apple trees
still burdened, and fax-blue sky
wellnigh emerging with the misty air;
the cattle browsing in the lingering
golden stiffness; not breath to fan
the blue smoke of the weed-fres-,
and in the fields no one moving-who
would disturb such mellow peace?
And winter! The long spaces, the,
long dark; and yet-and yet, what
delicate loneliness of twig tracery;
what blur Of rose and brown and pur-
pie caught in the bare boughs and in
the early sunset sky! What sharp
dark flights of birds in the gray-white
armament!
Who cared what season held in its
arms this land that had bred them
all.-From "The Freelands" by John
Galsworthy in Scribner's Magazine.

ATLANTA, Ga, Aug. PA. E. Gil

Bernard Boatright, young man Of

No cause for the shooting can be

part of young Boatright, against Mr..
Heard, who had been a frequent caller
on prominent young lady of this city.
AS Mr. Heard alighted from his car

Seventh street, Mr.. Boatright, it was

(By Associated Press.)

MARIETTA, Ga, Aug. 24.--Leo NJ.
Frank came to his death by hanging at
the hands of unknown parties, is the
verdict of the coroner's jury of Cobb
county, rendered this morning.
Eleven witnesses were heard, and
no clue as to the identity of the mem
bers of the mob was established The
verdict was returned in three min
utes after the jury retired
The city and county officials testified

on the case, but could not throw any
light on the identity of the lynchers.
The nearest disclosure was made
by ]. A. Benson, a merchant of Mari
eta, who testified that he drove near
the place soon after he lynching party
had parked their automobiles by the
roadside. He stated that he had a.
pretty good idea of what was going on,
but that he did not stop to see it, ana
failed to recognize any one.
w. ]. Frey, near whose gin the
body was found, was working in the
field when about four automobiles
passed through and he saw Frank. H

and then went to the cemetery in
Marietta where Mary Phagan, the
murdered girl, is buried. Frey stated
that he went back to Marietta and me.
Benson, who told him where the cars
stopped. He then hastened to the
woods and found the body.

kAJPSSAtNA y
ATLANTA, Ca, Aug. 24.--J. Frank
Meador, we'll known former Albanian
(not the j. Frank who lives here now
has become the hero of startling wild
western adventure which served to
show that the Southerner can still
hold his own when it comes to scrap
ping with the best of the Indian-fight
ing and cow-punching Westerners.
Meador, according to the story that
travelling Atlantans brought home a
couple of days ago. was in San Frna-
cisco looking for a job that was really
worth while when he learned of a Sc
rious strike that was going on in u
small mining town about fifty miles out
of Frisco. The owners were scouting
around to find man who had enough
courage and executive ability combin-
ed to cope with the situation. Meador
said he believed he could turn the
trick, and was authorized to take a
chance at it, being warned, however,
that he was taking his life into his
hands.
He went to the mining town to
break the strike, thrashed the strike
leader, shot two or three others who
tried to attack all together, and sue
cessfully broke the strike in about
forty-eight hours.
But that isn't all the story. They
say he went back to Frisco to collect
his handsome reward, and that the
owners, taking him into their iffices,
conffded another problem, to-wit, that
they believed the real trouble was
caused by the manager of the mines,
a man who they had tried to get rid of
and wanted to get rid of, but of
whom they were just a little afraid
"All right" said Fighting Frank"
Il will undertake that job, too, if you
will pay me enough"
So back to the mining town wen:
Frank and told the manager he was
fired. The manager refused to believe
it, so Frank threw him out of his
own office bodily, and now peace
reigns supreme in Dead Gulch, Or.
Tombstone, or Rawhide, or whatever
the name of that particular little min
ing village may be.
