Do Not Sacrifice Your Health
s !s ss8 s8 #s s s ss @s#k @*#

MANY women and girls make the
 the great. mistake of sacrificing their physical comfort to the call of fashion. When the styles demand that there be no hips. those who are rather large in that direction try everything short of suicide to force their hips into the narrow space, set by the styles. Stays are often worn so tight that the poor flesh beneath is all creased and ridged when they are removed.
 It is always very bad for the health to wear the stays too tight All kinds of ma1adies result from a constant pressure around the abdomen, stomach, waist and diaphragm, the space cover ed by the ordinary stays. Indigestion and other stomach troubles are perhaps the commonest ills coming from tight stays.
 When the stomach is drawn up and in by means of these cloth and steel contraptions the muscles are all thrown out of place. Where the pressure is constant and heavy the organs of the stomach cannot perform their work properly and the consequence is tndi- gestion and other stomach ills.

HOW ABOUT YOUR vACATION7

It doesn't matter whether you travel away to sea or mountain or lake If you are kept on the alert mentally and nervously most of your time you must try to rest completely for your vaca- tion,
 But if you have rather a dull time of it at your work, if that is naopotOnouE and takes little of your energy and if you are not in the rush of town life, then choose a vacation that will give you variety and zest. that will throw you in with new people and. points Of view, give you a chance to wear your pretty clothes and show you new scenes. You want all the waking up you can get, and you must plan to take it as rest cure, just as the overstimu- lated girl needs to take the opposite regimen.
 Above an. don't decide at the last ma- ment and all in rush, but begin right now to pick and choose and plan.

This is just one Of the many ailments coming as a dtr@e1 RFsuIt of tight stays. When one consfdeFS the various parts of the body covered by the ordinary corset, it is not to be wondered at that much harm can come In consequence of tight squeezing.
 One of the worst results Of this ever present i'll is anaernia- This is especial ly apt to attack young girls who are so foolish as to lace. When girls are be- tween fourteen and twenty they are still growing and their bodies should be per- fect1y free all over their surfaces. bn- til they are eighteen it is wiser not to wear corsets at all, but one of the so called corset waists which have ceIlu-- Ibid bones instead of the steel ones.
 Tight Iacing prevents the free circu- Iation of the blood, which is so impOr- tant for young girls. Good circulation is necessary for sound health and when it is stopped by tight stays anae- mia is the result.
 It is bad enough for her physical health when a grown woman chooses to squeeze her figure into a space too narrow for it, but girls should not ba allowed to do so. --

WINGS have flown into favor this
 spring and have settled down unon my lady's summer hat with the intention of a good long stay. They affect many poses, that which looks as if poised on top of the crown for im- mediate flight being perhaps the most popular. The advent of sailor hats is bringing in host of new tailored trimmings, and wings, too. are taking on a more tailored stiffness. A par tic11larly chic hat of midnight blue taf- feta Is trimmed solely by pair of rather long narrow white wings trim med very evenly on the edges and backed with a piece of stiffened blue taffeta following the outline of the wings and slightly larger, Another white bangkok straw hat has a simple

BLoUsEs NOW ARE VARIED AND
 ATTRACTIVE

RLOUSES are varied and more at
 tractive than ever. There seems every probability that they will be more than ever popular this year, in measure, no doubt, because they are so useful to slip on in the afternoon. when they can be worn with any skirt that may happen to harmonize with their coloring. A novel and becoming blouse was seen the other day.
 It >was a smart but useful blouse composed of fine black net, lined with cerise ninon and draped on one side only with cerise taffeta glace silk, slashed on the shoulder, and brought down to long point in front to give the effect of a deep corselet. The cuffs were of cerise tafeta. and the blouse was fastened down the center with small cherry coIored porcelain buttons and loops of cerise silk cord.

CLOSE BUYING.

sS(JOMMEND me to the average wo-
 man shopper for real shrewd- ness," says the manager of a well known establishment. We received a visit from one the other day that taught us something.
 ''She was considering the purchase of a yard of silk at 80 cents. The wo- mans purchase left a remnant of a yard and a half, which the salesgirI suggested that she should take.
 'What'n it cost?' asked the shopper.
 S Fifty cents.'
 Very well," promptly replied the woman. 'Tl take that yard and a half. and you may keep the yard I first bought,'

'When Judge Roam writes me letter.
JUDGE ROAD NEVER WROTE ANY
SUCH LETTER!

Judge Roam never asked Slaton to cor
rect any mistakes of his.
Judge Roam went to his grave firmly be-
lieying that his rulings on the law were
right and that the evidence in the case
showed that Frank was 'unquestionably
guilty"
The clumsy effort to produce letter from
Judge Roam, long after has death, was as
bare faced fraud as was ever pulled off
anyachere!
And if Judge Roam made a mistake of
law in charging the jury as to the penalty
in the case, why was it that Partner Rosser
was blind to this mistake? Why was Part
ner Phillips blind to it? Why were JUS
~tices Beck and Fish blind to it? Why were
the majority Justices blind?
Judge Roam made no mistake, cnd S1atom
kaooacs It,; but the World does not know it,
and the Northern people generally do not
know it.
The evidence of James Conley was part
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1915-07-15
To the New York World, Slaton said:


The Supreme Court of our State never passed
upon the merits of the Frank case, and under our
Constitution could not do so. Under our Consti-
ton the Supreme Court is court to correct
errors of law, not fact. In New York you have
an Appellate Division, which review facts.
Power of the Trial Judge.
We have such court in Georgia. but our
Supreme Court is limited to the correction solely
of errors Of law and if there be any evidence
tending to convict Frank the Supreme Court has
no power to set aside the verdict of the jury.
Under our system in Georgia the only judge
who has any power to review the merits of the
case and to consider the weight Of testimony
to determine the justice of the cause is the
trial judge who presided at the trial. This
Judge Roam.
Isn't it shame that Slaton should
be telling this sort Of stuff to the Northern
people, when every lawyer in Georgia
knows the utter mendacity of it?
The Supreme Court of Georgia does re-
viee0 the facts, just as the Appellate Court
of New York does: every vozunae of Georgia
Reports shows 1t.
In the 141st Volume of the Supreme
Court Reports, there are numerous criminal
cases where our Supreme Court reviewed
the facts, and the case of Leo Frank is one
of them
In the goth division of the opinion, the
Court says
eve haze givem careful consideration to
the eridence."
Could the Appellate Court of New York
do more than give careful consideration to
the evidence?
Could any court Of review do it?
Didn't Slaton himself announce in his
15,00O-word document, that he sustained
the verdict Of the jury?
Hasn't he contended that all he did, e0as
to change the punishment, on account of
Judge Roan's alleged ignorance of the law?
Slaton's statement to the World con-
tinues-

of the record, and Conzey sarore that he saoo
the criminal commit the crime.
This being true, how could Judge Roam
treat the case as one of circuD2Stdntia1 cci-
dence, only? How can anybody do it?
Nobody can do it, save a demOralized
renegade, desperately trying to defend his
base betrayal of trust
Continuing his statement to the World,
SlatOn says:
Governors Judicial Function.
The Governor in the exercise of his consti-
tutional power of clemency is but a part of
this judicial system and may be likened to the
cities of refuge in the old Israelitish law. When
by necessity the is beyond the courts with
their formality Of procedure there is yet APP
peal that may be made to the Executive and by
doing remove the impossbility of injustice
Every civilized State and every civilized Nation
vests somewhere this power and generally in
the Executive The Governor of every State or
acting in conjunction with pardOning board
performs this function. The President of
France may do the thing. The Executive
in England does the same thing. When it is not
abused it ought to be safeguard of the people
and it's sacredness as much exalted as the proper
performance by the courts of their function.
The editor Of the World may not know
that the pardoning power is not judicial
Junction. and neuer qrdS.
The editor of the World may not know,
that Slaton took an oath to support a Con-
sttution aUhich expressly FORBADE HIM
to exercise JUDICIAL FUNCTIONS.
The editor of the World does net know,
that when Slaton usurped judicial func-
tions, and retired Leo Frank, he was VIC
lating his oath of office; and had not he
and his partners spun ont the appeals, and
until 1t acas roo LATE TO IWPEACH
SLATON, he q0ou1d haze been M
PEACHED.
Slaton knows that Governors do not re-
try criminal cases, on the same evidence
that acas before the jury. He knows that
the Executive in England never did such a
thing; and that the President of the French
Republic never did.
Presidents in this Republic also use the
pardoning power; but they do not retry
cases, on the testimony which vent before
the jury.
sLATON BOASTS OF BANGING BART CAN
TRELL.
In the Chicago Daily Tribune, the fugi-
tive Ex-Governor of Georgia said, on July
10, 1915-he being on his way to the Vel
lowstone Park, on that delayed honeymoon
of his:
''They sad I am AFRAID to allow a man to
hang. This is untrue
Il allowed boy Of only eighteen gears to
go to the gallows."
This reference is to Barlow Cantrell, of
Hall County, Georgia, the ignorant boy who
had shot and killed groacn man.
The Georgia boy whose death on the scat
fold is cited by Slaton as a proof of his cour-
age, had never been in the habit of debauch
ing $5-a-week work girls, nor had he ever
been seen to commit the crime of Sodom,
nor did he rape and murder a little girl who
ought to have been at school.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1915-07-15
Governor Alone Could Save Frank.

Therefore, when Judge Roam the trial judge,
writes a letter and asks me to commute the
sentence of Frank and in effect asks to
rect the mistake which he made, and especially
in view of the grve doubt created by the evil
dence in the case, it is almost inconceivable
that any Governor would hesitate to exercise
the power vested in him by the Constitution for
meeting exactly such emergencies. The impo-
stion of the penalty had passed beyond the
trial judge, because the term of court had
passed, and he asked to prevent injustice
which might occur because of the judges over
sight, and l exercised my power to correct
mistake when l was the only who had the
power to correct it.
