Not everyone in the city realizes
THAT We have on exhibition at the
Kendall Young library the finest
collection of reproduction of famous
paintings to be seen anywhere in
the state. Some of these it is now
impossible to procure, on account Of
the war, and Others will not be
available at any price in the near
future.
Mrs. Burbank has personally been
showing and explaining these beau
tiful reproductions Of the worlds
hest art every afternoon and even
ing during the past week and will
he here for the next two or three
days. She delivered short address
upon the Twenty Best Paintings"
at the high school on Friday and
illustrated her talk with several
copies of the subjects in hand. Many
people have ayaiied themselves of
the privilege, not only to look at
these pictures, but to buy them, the
prices being extremely reasop>bfe.

SO-Called Hollow Horn. D

That the so-called ''hollow horn
disease" still fingers in the minds
of some people who are not fami-
liar with the anatomy of cows
horus or the many different all
ments to which these animals are
liable is indicated by inquiries re-
ceived at the experiment station.
But this disease" is fast becom-
ing eliminated from the list of cat
tie ailments as the march of edu-
cation along this line advances.
Hollow horn is not recognized as a
diseased condition in any authori-
tative work on veterinary medi-
cine either in this country or any
where else. When a cow is sick,
the horn piths are hollow, natural
ly, but the cause of the ailment
must be looked for In some other
direction. During our winter sea-
sons, especially when feed is
scarce, a great many of our cattle
die from hollow" but the hol-
low is in another part of their an
atomy- usually the stomach. The
more information our cattle owners
become possessed of, with regard
to diseases of these animals, the
sooner will this, and other imagin-
airy diseases be wiped off the list

A Good Man On The Job.

There is SO much bad i'll the
best of us, and SO much good in
the worst of us, that it hardly be-
hooves any of us to talk about the
rest of us"
These few words carry with them
quite lesson if we would but pro.
perly consider them. DO not be q
chronic fault finder, continually
registering objections to this, thai
and the other thing.
If you have a legitimate kick
file it; but don't go around looking
for trouble.
Man who is forever casting abou
in hope of discovering something
that is not exactly right will pro
badly find more or less at which
he can grumble, but in doing SO h'
fails to bring about remedy.
This applies to every walk o
life, and particularly in the con
duct of a city. If you are not sa
tisfed with the manner in whicl
your city is being conducted, tn
remedy lies at the polls. Alexan

Mothers Day.

AND now we have Mothers Day
On which white carnation
All wear in tender reverence
For the mothers of our nation.
For God ne 'er gave better friend.
Just like her there's no other;
This truly is the day of days.
The day of home and mother.
GOD bless my dear old mother
And spare her long to me;
There ne'er could be squarer pal
Than she has been. you see.
No matter though the world might say
That am weak or bad,
Her love and smile was always there
To soothe and cheer her lad.
AS TIME goes on see her locks
Turn slow to evenings gray;
The wrinkles on her dear old face
Sink deeper every day.
And as her step grow feeble,
feel with sinking heart
How dear the world will seem to me
When l and mother part.
so LET all make Mothers Day
The one day of the year;
White blossoms for those passed away
White blossoms for those here.
And though a white carnation
Well wear--fOr all to see,
know each day is Mothers Day
For you, dear friends. and me.

The great American sin is pro-
family. The use of profane Ian
guage is not confined to the street
loafer, the thug and sot; men who
move in good society, business
men of standing and reputation,
young men and old men, and even
boys of tender age, are addicted to
this inexcusable habit and sin.
There is nothing more disgusting
than to hear man punctuate his
every utterance with lurid oaths.

COMPANIES PLAN
TO HELP HEALTH
MOVEMENT LAUNCHED BY LIFE
INSURANCE CONCERNS AT
ANNUAL MEETING.

ATLANTA, June 2.-Executive
heads Of southern life companies for
INFLATED plans for improving health
standards and general conditions af-
feetfpg life insurance companies in
tue south at the annual meeting here
Yesterday, presided over by Edmund
Strndwick, Of Richmond, Va, who is
: president Life insurance presidents
from many of the southern states were
present.
As one means of improving health
standards in the south, the Southern
States Life Insurance company, of
Atlanta, OF which Wilmer L. Moore,
is president. has recently inaugural
ed a movement for state legislatures
to appropriate to state boards of
health a sum equal to the states an
nual revenue from taxes paid by life
insurance companies. 1t is intended
that this appropriation shall be in adj
dition to whatever amount may now
be appropriated for health work.
AS the taxes from life companies
are only small part of the receipts
from insurance as whole, each state
could easily afford to divert these
funds to the work of health authori-
ties according to the Suthern States
Life.
For the year ending December 81,
1914, as shown by statistics prepar
ed by the Southern States Life, the
life insurance companies paid to the
states in taxes the sum of $10,550,
